Emma wakes up in an alley near Gold's shop and tries to remember how she had gotten there. She listens for the normal small town noise that she had somehow grown to love. When no noises come to her she closer to the streets in the usually busy town square. No one was around. It was like suddenly the town had been deserted overnight. She walks towards Granny's and sees that it is empty. Something was off.

She jumps when she hears Mr. Gold's voice, "Emma? Tell us what you see."

That is when she remembers what she was sent here to do, "Nothing. Everything here is empty. There is no one. It is like a ghost town."

Gold doesn't respond for a minute, then sighs, "You are blocking off the vision. It is there, you just need to fight the fear of seeing it all again."

Emma looks around desperately. She couldn't bring the vision to life, "How am I supposed to do that? Tinker Bell said the only way to see past its lies was not to fear the truth of it. But… I don't how to do that. It felt so real."

Belle's voice comes to her, "Think of the people that make you happy. Think of the people you want to survive. Think of how much you don't want this vision to be true for their sake."

Emma takes a deep breath and closes her eyes, seeing the vision as it was shown to her. When she opens her eyes again, she gasps. Dead bodies litter the streets. People she knew. People who were her friends. She looks up and sees herself looking at the dead body of her son.

She shudders, "I see it, but everything is frozen like a picture."

Gold nods, "That is a step closer. It is frozen still because you still have the fear of it playing out. You need to tell yourself to see it and to really look. Focus on every detail and find the thing that doesn't fit in. Find the thing that if taken out of the picture would make it true or false."

Emma closes her eyes again and mentally tells the image to play out. When she opens her eyes she sees movement and she watches as the events unfold. But terror takes over and she forgets to look closely at the details. Too busy watching as more people die. As Regina, Neal and Gold panic when the thing moves closer. What was that? It was like something was there but she couldn't exactly see what it was. Before she could analyze that she hears Hook yell in a voice she had never heard the pirate use. One filled with terror and anxiety. All the self-confidence and cockiness that she loved so much about him was gone. She watches as he rushes forward and tries to save her and fails. The shadow moving closer to him and ripping away his own shadow. The shock of that had her falling to her knees just as her vision self did.

She hears Belle distantly in the back of her mind, "Emma! Don't let the vision overtake you. You are stronger than that. You need to turn away from the fear and become the strong, smart woman that you are. I believe in you. You can do this!"

Emma nods to the invisible voice and looks away and back at the three people trying to fight the evil thing off. She squints at it and tries to see its form. It looked as if it were a person. The thing turns to her and her eyes widen, "Peter Pan! It's Peter Pan! He can't be in this vision. He is dead."

She walks over to the boy and her turns to her, "You! How are you here?"

She frowns, "I am trying to see the truth of this vision. And you are the lie that holds it together."

He laughs, "What are you talking about? I am no lie. I am going to lead you to your doom."

She shakes her head, "No you aren't. Because you are dead. You would not be able to be here. That is why you are almost like a ghost here."

He steps back, confused, "How am I dead? I-I…"

Before he can finish that sentence he fades away. She looks around and sees the truth at last. Everything was as it had been before. People were rushing to work or taking a slow walk to the diner. She had done it. As soon as she had seen Peter she had known that this was impossible.

She sighs with relief, "I did it."

A voice from behind her sounds, one that she didn't recognize, "Did you? Or are you lying to yourself yet again?"

She turns around to see her own face, but the voice…it was more menacing than her own, "Wh-what do you mean?"

The other laughs, "How can you trust the dark one. Perhaps he is working against you. He probably would love to see the whole town dead. He is putting this fake vision in your head, Emma."

Emma shakes her head, "No. I know this is the truth. You are the one that is lying to yourself."

The other raises a brow, "Am I? Well it looks as though I am you and you are me. How can one of us lie and not the other? You just see what you want to see as truth. It doesn't matter if it really is."

Emma rolls her eyes, "Now you are just talking in riddles. I found the thread and I tore the vision apart. It was all me."

The other smirks, "You can be so dense sometimes. It doesn't matter, I guess. You will lose either way. More than you can imagine, it would seem."

Emma was getting tired of this, "And what the hell is that supposed to mean?"

The other just shrugs, "You will find out soon enough."

Emma didn't really know what to think. All she knew as she had to get out of here, but how? She looks up, "Mr. Gold, you can wake me now. I did what had to be done."

The other laughs again, "Only you can wake yourself up, Emma. They are of no help to you now."

Emma glares, "I wish you would go away."

The other pulls a sword out of thin air, "Why don't you make me?"

Before she can respond the other is swinging at her and she rolls out of the way. Great. Where was she going to find a sword? And how odd was it that she had to fight herself? This takes fighting with oneself to a whole new level. She looks around frantically still avoiding the other's advances. She sees Gold's shop and starts running towards it. If she was going to find a weapon anywhere, it would be there. She walks in and looks around hoping that she would be right. And she was. As if by magic one appears on the glass encased counter. She smiles and picks it up.

She turns to see the other close behind, "Now, how about a fair fight?"

The other shrugs, "That would make this less boring."

They start swinging and moving around the shop. Blocking the others advances. They were more in tune with each other. They both had the same moves. Same thought process. Emma tries to think of something that she would never expect and grins. She pulls out the gun in her side holster and shoots it. A wave of nausea rips through at the sight of herself falling to the ground, dead.

Hook sits at Emma's desk trying not to lose his patience. He couldn't just sit here while she was in the hands of that Crocodile. He watches David make phone calls and loses his battle. He was just going to have to sneak out. He was a pirate after all. Sneaking was his best ability.

Just as he is about to grab his coat, he hears David, "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

Hook curses under his breath and looks up, "I cannot just sit here and do nothing like you, your majesty! Unlike you I actually care about Emma."

The look of rage on the Prince's face had Hook stepping back. David growls, "Don't you dare think that you care for her more than I do. She is all I think about. It is just as hard for me to sit around here and do nothing, but if I know Emma, and I do, she will be pissed if we get into her business before she wants us to. So sit your ass down, pirate, and shut the hell up!"

Hook hated to be told what to do and he was not going to let this man get away with that, "Listen to me, Charming! I have been alive a lot longer than you. I know the dark one a whole lot better. He does nothing to help anyone and I will be damned if he hurts Emma the way he hurt Milah. You will not tell me what to do when it comes to my concerns about Emma. I am going and you can sit here and fiddle with your thumbs or you can join me and beat the living hell out of him!"

David stews on this for a minute then shrugs, "Fine. Have it your way, pirate. But we are going to do this Emma's way. Got it?"

Hook lifts his arms in defeat, "Fine! But if there is any arresting I get to be the one to put the shackles on."

David laughs and they head to the shop.

"What do you mean you can't wake her up?"

Gold looks up at Belle sadly, "Something is holding her there. It is up to her to wake herself up now."

Belle starts pacing back and forth, "And what if she can't do that? What if she is stuck in this state for the rest of her life?"

Gold rubs his hand through his hair, "I don't know, Belle. All we can do is sit back and wait."

Belle glares at something on the wall, "There has to be something that you can do. You are the dark one. You have all this power."

Gold winces at the way she says dark one, "My powers are different here, dearie. I am limited at what I can and can't do. And I am out of practice. I gave up most of my magic abilities for you."

Belle turns on him, angry, "So this is my fault? How can you say that?"

Gold shakes his head and stands up, "No, Belle, I don't blame this on you. No one could foresee this would happen. We have to believe in Emma's strength to get herself out."

Bell nods, defeated, "You are right. I just don't like feeling so helpless when someone I care about is on the line."

He touches her face, "I know, darling. She will get through this. She has gotten through everything else that has been thrown at her."

Before Belle can respond they hear a cough and Emma sits up suddenly. She looks extremely pale and rushes towards the small bathroom. Belle rushes to her side and holds her hair back while she vomits. Emma falls back and sighs, "Don't ever make me do that again."

Belle laughs and sits next to her on the floor, "Trust me, I won't." She grins as an idea forms in her head, "Why don't we go out tonight. Have a girl's night. Drink, dance. Just relax and not think about all this drama. We can invite Ruby."

Emma contemplates then grins back, "That sounds amazing."

There is a commotion in the front of the shop and they all walk through the curtain to see who it was. Emma still felt a little weak and Belle put an arm around her to support her. They see Hook and David rushing towards them.

Gold is the first to speak, "Well, if it isn't the pirate and the prince. What can I do for you?"

Hook glares at him, "We came to check on Emma."

Emma frowns, a little surprised they even knew she was here, "Um, the last time I checked I was able to take care of myself. I don't really need you two coming to be my white knights."

David looks at her and sees the paleness of her face, "Are you alright? You don't look well."

Emma nods, "I am fine. It was just something that I ate earlier. Didn't sit right." She turns to Belle, "I will see you later tonight. Thank you." She smiles at Gold, "Both of you did me a great favor. I won't forget."

Hook growls, "You took a favor from this man? And what did he ask of you? Your hand, perhaps."

Emma laughs, "Oh, Captain. You are a bitter one aren't you? Don't worry. I owe him nothing. This favor was on the house." She squeezes Belle's hand, "I have to go pick up Henry. Feel free to stand around and glare at each other accusingly."

Henry walks off the bus and over to Emma, "You know I can walk myself home, right?"

Emma smiles, "I know, but I love spending time with you and I feel like I have been brushing you off for the past couple weeks. I never meant to do that. I just didn't want you to suffer under my stress."

Henry grabs his mother's hand, "I get it. I know you have been through a lot lately, almost dying and all those dreams. I just hope it get better."

Emma grins, "It is better. We still have a lot of horrible things ahead, but I know now that I will not lose you. No matter what, we will be together."

Henry laughs, "I am glad to hear that. I can't wait until we can have a normal day and not have to worry about someone trying to kill us in the future."

Emma nods in agreement, "And on that day, I will take you to Disneyland or world or someplace fun and exciting. What do you say?"
Henry jumps up and down with excitement, "I have always wanted to go there. I can't wait."

Henry really couldn't. He had never been able to leave Storybrooke except to find Emma and Neal. When he was younger he would ask Regina to take him to amusement parks and she would say he wasn't allowed to step foot out of this town. The world was deadly place. All lies of course. He was glad he didn't have to deal with that anymore.

They walk into Granny's and are greeted warmly by the patrons. Ruby walks over to their booth and smiles, "Hey, Emma, Henry. The usual?" They both nod eagerly and Ruby winks at Emma, "I will see you tonight for our girl's night."

Henry looks at Emma as she walks away, "Girl's night?"

Emma frowns, "I hope that is ok. I could cancel if you want to just stay home and watch a movie,"

Henry shakes his head, "No that sounds great! You are finally stepping out of your shell and making friends. I am so proud of you."

Emma laughs, "When did you become the parent here?"

An hour later, Emma was trying to find something to wear. She didn't know the appropriate attire for a girl's night. Did she go casual? A little slutty? Dressy? There was a reason she didn't do this very often.

Snow walks into the room, "Having troubles?"

Emma falls back onto her bed, "Yes! I don't know what to wear! I have never really had any girlfriends before. I don't know what is expected of me."

Snow laughs at her daughter's exasperation and goes to her closet, "Hmm, I would say go with the little black dress. It always does the trick. And if I know Ruby, she will definitely take you some place nice and fun."

Emma sits up and takes the dress Snow was holding out, "In Storybrooke? I highly doubt that. This place is devoid of any clubs really."

Snow shakes her head, "You obviously have been hanging around the Sheriff's station way too much. There is a place here. It's called Skin Deep. It is a good time."

Emma raises a brow skeptically, "We shall see."

Snow sighs as she watches her daughter leave and sits on the couch next to David and Henry. David grabs her hand, "What's wrong, Snow?"

She shrugs, "I just want things to be better already. I thought once to curse was broken we would all end up together and happy."

Henry looks over at her, "Nothing is as easy as that. Take from someone who knows. No matter what the circumstance, abandonment isn't easy to get over."

Snow frowns, "I thought that you understood why she gave you up."

Henry nods, "For my best chance, sure. But that doesn't change the fact that she gave me away. And she has 28 years of being all alone. At least I found her."

Snow sits back. She hadn't thought Henry was hurting so much and she never even thought about the effect it would have on Emma. Her thoughts are interrupted by the knock on the door.

Snow gets up and opens it up to Hook, "What are you doing here?"

Hook smirks, "Better be careful, love, or your disdain for me will show. We all know how much you like to act the part of the sweetheart."

Snow rolls her eyes not in the mood for his so called charm, "What do you want?"

Hook sighs, "Is Emma here? I need to talk to her."

Snow shakes her head, "No she is out with friends."

Henry laughs and they all look at him. He shrugs, "It's the classic parent moment. Having someone come over and telling them she is out with friends. I just thought it was funny. Carry on."

Snow turns back to him, "She will probably be around tomorrow."

Hook quirks a brow in his usual manner, "I would certainly hope so. It would be a shame if she went missing."

David stands up and heads to the kitchen to make some popcorn, "Why don't you join us Hook? We are about to watch a couple of Disney movies loosely based on our lives. And wouldn't you know? One of them has your character in it."

Snow looks at her husband surprised. That was the last reaction she had expected from him. She turns back to Hook and steps back, letting him in.

Emma was pretty drunk by the time she and Belle stumble to her front door. They both laugh. Belle sways a little and Emma puts her arm around her waist, "Are you sure it is ok if I stay here?"

Emma giggles, "I probably should ask my parents first."

Belle bursts out laughing and they open the door to four amused faces and they practically fall on each other laughing. Belle is the first to speak up, "Mr. and Mrs.…Oh I don't know their last names. It's not Swan is it?"

Emma laughs harder, "No, I don't think so. Her last name is Blanchard and his is Nolan."

Belle puts her hand over her mouth, "They aren't married? Oh no what happened?"

Emma's eyes widen, "I don't know." Then she whispered, "I think he married Katherine. Oh this is bad."

The four of them watch the two drunken girls in front of them unable to stop the surprise on their face. Henry stands up, "Mom, are you ok?"

Emma looks at Belle, "Oh, shit, my kid is here. Be cool."

Belle tries to act normal but the look on her face had Emma almost on the floor, "Emma! Be cool."

Emma nods, "Hey, Henry. I am great. I am going to…" She looks at the TV and points, "Hey! They are watching Beauty and the Beast! This is about you, Belle."

Belle looks at the screen and gasps, "Rumple looked nothing like that, but that is a real beast. She fell in love with him…Oh hey that chipped cup is talking. This story is so much better."

Emma pushes Belle in a chair and she goes to the chair where Hook was sitting, sits on his lap and smiles drunkenly at him, "Hello, handsome."

Hook grins, "Hello, gorgeous. Aren't you in a fine mood?"

She shrugs, "I don't know. I guess."

Belle points to the screen, "What is that?"

Emma looks over, "Oh that is a thing you use to clean…What's it called?"

"A feather duster." Snow supplies with a laugh.

Emma nods, "Yeah…apparently she is French…wait they are all French. They live in France."

Belle shakes her head, "What the bloody hell is France?" Her eyes widen, "The cups and plates and forks are dancing. Oh this is so delightful. I wish I had experienced this."

Henry frowns at her and shakes his head, "I think I am going to bed. It is late."

Emma gasps, "Don't you have school tomorrow? You are going to be in trouble. Wait till your mother gets home…Oh wait I am." She fakes a stern face, "Young man! Go to bed this instant."

Henry salutes her, "Yes, ma'am." He walks away laughing.

Hook sighs, "I have to say, seeing you this way is quite…endearing."

When he leans in to kiss her she puts a finger to his mouth, "Um, my parents are in the room. Have some respect."

David grins, "I like her this way, too. Better morals when she is drunk apparently."

Emma turns on him and pales, "I don't feel so well." She jumps up and runs to the bathroom.

Belle rolls her eyes, "Not again."

Snow frowns, "Again? What do you mean? How much did she drink?"

Belle shrugs, "No, I mean earlier. After she killed herself, she woke up and got sick. But she survived."

They all sit up in their chairs, not understanding and Belle puts her hand over her mouth. Before they can ask any questions, Emma walks out and sighs heavily, and soberly says, "Belle that was supposed to be a secret."

Belle looks at her with a sad pout, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."

Emma smiles, "It's ok. You are drunk." She looks around the room, "I will explain everything tomorrow. Tonight I am tired and I think Belle needs to sleep it off."

David frowns, "You were drunk, too."

Emma shakes her head, "I was." She stumbles forward a little, "I still am."

She pulls Belle up off the chair and they walk up to her room together leaving the others to frown at them.

Emma falls asleep instantly and thinks of Tinker Bell. When she awakens she is in the caves where she had last seen Peter. Tinker Bell walks over to her with a smile filled with delight, "You did it. I can tell in the way you are holding yourself and there is a whole new glow around you."

Emma nods, "What you said was true. I faced my biggest fear and won."

Tinker Bell takes her hands, "Now I can help you forget."

Emma shakes her head, "No. I want to remember what that bastard did to me. I do not like to show weakness and he brought it out in me. He will pay."

Tinker Bell giggles with delight, "So you will do it. You will bring your son here and save us from that monster."

Emma sits down sadly, "No, I won't bring my son into such a dangerous place. If he gets hurt…"

The pixie sits next to her with her arm around Emma's shoulder, "I get it, but the plan is already in motion. Unless you can stop them from your side, Henry will end up here."

Emma takes a deep breath, "Who? Who are these people that are in my world?"

She looks at Emma apologetically, "I am sorry, but I do not know. I was not told much. The shadow knew better than to let me in on his secret. I doubt even Peter knew."

Emma bites her lip, "Well, then I have to stop them. I'm sorry Tink. I would love to help you mo-"

Tink cuts her off, "No, please do not apologize for protecting your son. If more mothers did that then perhaps not so many boys would be lost. And you have another one to worry about on the way."

Emma's eyes widen in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Tink give a little gasp, "You did not know about the child you are carrying?"

Emma closes her eyes and when she opens them again she is back in her room next to Belle who smiles brightly at her, "Morning, Sunshine."

Emma groans, "How are you so chipper?"

Belle shrugs, "I am not as affected by drinking the morning after as most."

Emma sits up slowly and painfully, "Lucky you." Emma goes in the bathroom and leans against the counter. She was pregnant? How could that be? She starts to feel sick again and runs to the toilet. That explains why she has been sick so much.

Belle knocks on the door, "Are you ok? I think breakfast is ready."

Emma sighs, "I am fine. I will be out in a second."

She splashes water on her face and runs a brush through her hair and brushes her teeth. She walks downstairs and freezes at the bottom step when she sees Snow, David, Hook, and Neal waiting for her. Belle was at the table looking down at the table.

Emma rubs her head, "Let take some aspirin before the questions start please." She walks over to the medicine cabinet and thinks to herself, well, this was going to be a fun day. She turns around to face the beginning of her bad day.

A/N: So this chapter was a little difficult to write. I had it written and then hated it so I rewrote it. There are parts that have been revised over and over again, but I am more satisfied with this version. I hope you are too. I enjoyed writing the drunk scene and I know it is a little silly, but Emma needs to let loose a little. Have a little fun. That is what she is doing in that, so I made it extra silly.

I think in the next chapter Hook and Emma will have that romantic date. I think she kind of needs it considering her news.

Um, I hope you enjoy. And please review I like to hear your thoughts and I like to hear some of your ideas too. :)

XOXO
