Regina took a second too long to give chase. Emma was fast. Emma was gone.

"Shit." Regina smacked her hand against her forehead. She should have known it was something to do with Snow. She had been there when the incident happened. Things must have not improved between Snow and the Queen.

MM just stood there looking as confused as ever.

"Regina… What?"

"Snow, that is the other Emma. The EF one… apparently something happened between you two. I need to go find her…"

Snow stopped her.

"Regina not without knowing what happened, we can't help."

Regina rushed up the stairs to go find out, or get the Queen to help her find and calm Emma down.

MM called out to Henry to take Neil.

She was good at tracking she could find Emma.

MM ventured off into the forest, deeper and deeper. Wow Emma could run. She slowed as the tracks became fresher. She saw Emma wandering around the lookout. Snow had her cornered.

Emma jumped a little and kicked a rock over the edge.

Snow held her hands up, "Hey… woah didn't mean to scare you. I was worried. Can we talk, ya know a little further from the ledge." Motioning for Emma to come back towards her.

When Emma didn't move.

"Sweetheart, we are all worried about you."

But Emma was in panic mode. "No … you don't… stay away…" She held her hand out telling MM to stay back.

"Honey."

"No, stop it. She wants HER not me. Regina doesn't want me, she has a family. You didn't want me!"

"Emma, you are just a little spooked. I'm sorry I showed up. I don't know what I did honey, but I am so sorry…" She didn't move, she didn't want to spook Emma more.

"Why…" Emma's voice was barely above a whisper. "Why didn't you love me? Why didn't you want me happy? Why did you want to take Regina from me?" Tears started sliding down the pale planes of Emma's face in the fading sunlight.

Snow took a slight step forward, "I don't know what I did to you, but I can assure you I must be very confused to act this way towards you, I love you honey, I always have. If I tried to hurt Regina, or you… or Henry, I am sorry Emma." Tears were spilling down her own cheeks.

Emma took a step back, "What do I have to do to get away from you…"

"EMMA! STOP! I will leave, just walk back towards me ok sweetheart? You have a family. If you don't want to see me, fine. I will make sure you never have to see me, I just don't want you to hurt yourself. Please… Henry needs you, Regina needs you. Just take a deep breath honey."

Snow looked around, "Did I used to hum to you at night?"

Emma looked up confused, "what? Ye-yes when I was little."

Snow relaxed a little, "Ah, ok… was it a light tone that,"

"Scared the monsters away…yes." Emma finished.

Snow smiled, "Regina used to hum that to me…"

Snow walked closer, she reached out slowly and lead Emma further back towards the trees.

"I was so scared of the night, when my mom passed. There was still a shred of love for me in Regina. And if I hummed you that song, there was some love behind it as well." Snow cupped Emma's cheek.

"But, you were so mad I was with Regina…so mad I was having Henry…I betrayed the kingdom…You said I wasn't your child anymore…"

Emma was shaking, she wanted to scream at her mother, how the woman had wronged her, tried to take her happy ending just days ago. Made her feel like nothing.

Snow's face grew serious, "Emma. You are my child, nothing will ever change that. I love that you have Henry, and I am so happy you were able to love Regina. I always hoped she would find the happiness I stole from her, granted I didn't suspect it would be with you, but I got used to it. I love both of you, so very much Emma. I will never take her away, I promise."

Emma collapsed to the ground, shaking while sobs escaped her cracking lips.

Snow kneeled down and wrapped her arms around Emma.

"Shhhh it's ok. I'm here. I am so sorry Emma."
