"Emma!"
"Mom!"
"What happened?"
"We have to get rid of Cora."
Everyone reacts at once. Hook runs to Emma and puts her in his lap. Henry kneels next to them taking his mother's hand. Neal opens the gate and Mr. Gold runs over to Cora. Emma touches the scratch and cries out. Hook lifts her hand and sees the wound turning yellow. He frowns at Emma.
She nods, "Poison."
Hook looks over at Cora and growls, "She deserves to die for this."
Gold smirks, "For once we agree on something."
Henry yells, "No! That is not the answer. We are no longer in your world. You both are in ours. We do the right thing here."
Emma squeezes Henry's hand, "He is right. Tie her up and lock her somewhere. She doesn't have magic here, so she won't be able to get herself free as long as you do it correctly. I have handcuffs and I'm sure Neal knows a place she can be locked away."
Neal nods and Hook hands him Emma's handcuffs. He throws Cora over his shoulder and carries her to the storage closet. Hook picks up Emma and takes her up to Neal's apartment. He lays her on the couch and looks around for something to clean her wound.
Emma reaches out for Henry, "Call Mary-Margaret. Tell her what happened here. Tell her to get Regina."
Henry wipes the tears from his face as her grabs her phone out of her pocket and dials the number, "H-hello? Mary-Margaret?" He puts it on speaker phone.
Snow answers, "Henry? Is that you? Is everything ok?"
Henry shakes his head, "No. Cora is here and she just…" He takes a deep breath, trying to keep the tears out of his voice, "She poisoned Emma. We need to talk to Regina."
Snow drops the phone and David runs over to her, "What? What happened?"
She turns to him, "Get Regina here. Now!"
David nods and gets out his phone, "Regina? We need your help. Something has happened."
David hears a distant "Hello?" and picks up the phone that Snow had dropped, "Hello?"
Henry sighs with relief, "David? Did you get my mom? Is she on her way?"
David frowns, "Yes I did. Can you tell me what is going on?"
Henry lets out a sob, "Cora has poisoned Emma. She is dying. We don't know what to do. Hook is trying to clean her wound, but it isn't helping. The poison is in her blood stream."
Regina runs in, "What the hell is going on?"
David wipes the tears that were starting to fall, "Your mother poisoned Emma. She is dying."
Regina gasps, "No. How did she get there?" Regina throws her head back, "The Jolly Roger. That is how she got here. They need to get them both back here. Rumpelstiltskin will have the solution."
They all turn to Mr. Gold as he walks in. He frowns at all the eyes on him, "What?"
Hook stands up and gets in his face, "You can save her. Why didn't you say anything? Are you just going to let her die?"
Neal pushes Hook back, "Calm down and tell us what you are talking about."
Henry turns to them, "My mother said that you would have the answer." He shakes his head when they look at Emma, "No, not her. Regina."
Gold nods, "We have to get back to Storybrooke. Fast. She doesn't have much time."
Emma moans as she feels her temperature rise, "Can we…not fight? I… It's so…hot in…here."
Hook nods, "We will take the Jolly Roger. It will get us there fast." He looks at Neal, "I will need your help."
Neal nods, "I can get us a car that will take us to the harbor."
Henry frowns, "We need to bring Cora with us. How are we going to do that?"
Gold smiles, "We will just have to keep her unconscious."
Emma cries out in pain as the poison sinks deeper into her system. Hook turns to her and takes her hand, "We have to hurry. Who knows how long she has."
They make the arrangements as Emma tries her best to fight the poison in her system. She could feel herself getting weaker and weaker. Hook hurries back and picks her up off the couch. She moans as he races downstairs.
Hook lays her down in the back seat and gets in putting her head in his lap, "Don't worry, love, you are going to survive this. We are going to do everything we can."
Neal and Gold get in the front seat and Henry gets in the back seat with Emma and Hook putting her feet on his lap.
He takes her hand, "Mom, you can't die. I need you to live."
Emma squeezes his hand weakly, "No worries, kid. I'm…not going…anywhere." She closes her eyes, "Where is…Cora?"
Hook points to the trunk, "She is tied up back there. Still unconscious."
Emma sighs with relief, "Good. I'm gonna…" She passes out before she could finish her thought.
Hook sat below deck with Emma in his old quarters. She was shivering even with all the blankets that they had put on her. She was moaning and complaining about the pain that the poison was causing.
Hook held her hand, trying to comfort her, "Shhh. Emma we are almost there. Everything is going to be ok."
Emma looks up at him, "I don't know if I will make it. I f-feel s-so cold. Captain, I need you t-to do m-me a f-f-favor."
Hook frowns, "Emma…"
She tightens her grip on his hand, "Please." Hook nods, "Watch out for Henry for me. Don't let anything bad happen to him."
Hook smiles, "I would never let anything happen to him. He is safe, love."
She smiles weakly, "Do me one more favor." He tilts his head, "Kiss me?"
He laughs and leans down. He kisses her tenderly and passionately. Neal walks in about to announce that they have arrived in Storybrooke. He freezes when he sees Emma put her hand on the side of Hook's face as they kiss. He stood there for a moment not knowing how to react.
Henry walks in behind him, "What are you doing?"
Hook and Emma break apart and look towards the door. Emma frowns, "Is there something that you wanted?"
Neal clears his throat awkwardly, "Um, yeah we are in Storybrooke."
Hook stands up and grabs her hand helping her up. He starts to pick her up, but she shakes her head, "I can walk."
They walk to the top deck and off the ship. Emma slowly and painfully walks down the plank and sees Snow and David waiting for them on the dock. Hook turns around to help her down when she trips. He reaches out and catches her.
She takes a deep breath as she looks up into his eyes, "You caught me."
He smiles down at her, "I will always catch you, love."
Snow and David look at each other and then look back at the scene in front of them. Snow couldn't believe that this guy could be the one who was meant to be with her daughter. He was so… She shakes her head. It was not the time to think about that.
Snow steps forward, "Emma, honey? Are you ok?"
Emma tries to walk again, but her legs were shaky so she fell back into Hook. He picks her up and smiles sadly, "We need to hurry up and get her help. Cora is passed out and tied up on the ship. I don't know how much longer we can keep her out."
Mr. Gold limps over, "Why don't all of you take Emma to the loft? Where is Regina?"
Regina walks up, "I am here." She frowns over at Emma, "She doesn't look so good. She might not have much longer."
Emma moans, "Thanks for that. I feel so much better."
Regina laughs, "Sorry. We will fix this."
Emma lies in her bed at the loft trying to keep warm. Hook was downstairs pacing back and forth. He didn't like waiting. He wanted to do something to help her. He would do anything to take her pain away.
He looks over at her parents, "There has to be something we can do to make her feel better. We can't just sit here and do nothing."
Snow stands up and puts her hand on his shoulder, "There is nothing we can do. We just have to hope that Regina and Mr. Gold know what they are doing."
Hook grimaces, "Great. Our fate is left in the hands of the evil queen and the dark one. I feel so reassure."
Henry jumps off the chair he was sitting on, "You better be careful with who you are talking about. The "evil queen" you are talking about is my mother."
Hook quirks his brow, "The woman upstairs is your mother, too. Aren't you concerned about her?"
Henry glares at him, "Of course I am! I don't know what I would do if she dies! Which is why I have to believe that the evil queen and the dark one will come through. Since both of them are related to me I believe they will do everything they can to save someone whom I love."
Hook puts his hands up, "Ok, I'm sorry."
David laughs, "This is a very odd family we have here."
Snow nods, "Could you imagine thanksgiving?"
Neal walks into the room and frowns, "It's a good thing there is no Thanksgiving in fairy tale land."
Emma walks down the stairs, "So…while I am upstairs dying you are all down here talking about Thanksgiving. I feel so loved."
She walks into the kitchen and opens the fridge to get out some orange juice. She turns around and pours it into a glass. She looks up and smiles at all the people staring at her, "You all are creeping me out a little."
They all start talking at once. Emma just nods as they talk inaudibly, "Hey!" They all look at her, "Shut up. One at a time."
Hook walks over, "How are you better?"
She shrugs, "I have no idea. One minute I was lying up there suffering the next I was fine and the wound on my chest was healed."
Henry ran to her and hugged her, "I am so glad you are alive. I have never been so scared."
She laughs, "They can't kill me, kid. I am indestructible."
Regina and Mr. Gold walk in. Regina looks at Emma, "Cora is… dead." She breaks down in tears.
