The portal

Emma walked into Dr whales room with a smile on her face and Henry by her side, she was so excited to finally see her baby for the first time. Dr whale walked in ready to start, he started with an ultrasound to see the fetus. Then, Emma got a regular physical and they walked out with pictures and a file of information.

The explosion

But it wasn't such a happy day for long. Emma a spotted bright explosion a few hundred yards away, "Henry run to the station and sound the alarm then run home." Emma screamed over the car alarms and flames.

"NO! I won't leave you!" Henry yelled back with tears running down his face.

"Henry, you have too! Please!"

"Ok."

When Emma got up to the scene she realized that she was falling into a portal, she Heard the alarm from the station then cried. "Henry made it."

Emma saw Grumpy run up.

"Hold still!" He yelled as he tried to pull Emma from the portal.

But then, she saw something truly terrifying. Henry jumped in with her.

The landing

Henry woke up ten minutes later, he saw his mom buried under a pile of gravel.

"MOM!" Henry yelled.

"Henry. Why did you follow me."

She couldn't talk, she was half asleep and half awake.

Something was wrong. Her body was under a spell of some sort.

"Mom you have to stay awake."

"I'm...ok." She fell asleep again.

Henry didn't know what to do, his mom was practically unconscious, and they were in the middle of Enchanted forest.

He knew the only way to wake her up. In this case true loves kiss, but she was under. A very powerful curse. The only way to get her heart beating faster, was ripping it out.

He couldn't do that, but someone else could. There's one person that wasn't affected by the curse, Cora.

He had to summon her. He thought to himself, "are you crazy Henry! She could kill her!" But, there's a greater chance if Cora knew who he was. She wouldn't kill her grandsons other mother, or would she?

She would want Henry all to her, and Regina's self.

"Well, we gotta try right?" He whispered to himself.

"Cora,Cora,Cora" he yelled hoping she would come.

"Hello Henry." Cora whispered.

"No need to whisper, she's under a spell she got falling through a portal."

"But that's what I summoned you for, the only way to get her heart beating faster is to rip it out and put it back in. Now, I have hope that you will do both those things, we both know your only thinking about the first half. But, before you do this, I want you to know she's pregnant, With Rumplstiltkins sons baby, my father."

She paused for a second, then proceeded to the task. Henry was sweating with nerves and fear Cora will kill his mother.

All of a sudden, he Heard an "Ahh!"

"MOM!" Henry yelled with tears down his face.

"Henry." She whispered weakly.

"Thank you Cora." Henry said.

Then, Emma's head popped up and said "WHAT!"

"It's ok mom, she helped."

"Ok, but if you take one wrong move-"

"I'm not here to hurt you." Cora respond.

"Then why are you here?"

"Henry summoned me."

"Henry?"

"She was the only one who could rip your heart out, and trust me, I thought long and hard about this, but it was the only way." Henry said with a look in his eyes that said trust me.

"Ok, but our next obstacle is to find a place to sleep for the night. I've been here before, and at night, it's not pleasant." Emma said with a look.

The hunt

Emma, Henry and Cora were sitting there for a while resting. It was over 90 degrees,

A dangerous temperature with the mix of humidity.

"We should get going, it will be dark soon and ogres with rise." Cora said with fear.

"Right, Henry get in front of us. If we need to start running you should get a head start." Emma said with concern knowing that ogres hunt from sound.

"What about you?" Henry directed to his mom.

"I'll be fine, I can still run." Emma said.

"I wish my daughter would have much concern for me as your son does for you." Cora said sadly.

"Well, if you didn't rip out her true loves heart you guys might have had a good relationship." Emma responded.

"But you don't understand, I just wanted what's best for her. I wanted her to take a good path, were she would never have to lift a finger like I had too."

"I do understand, I only set Henry up for adoption because I had nothing back then, If I couldn't even provide for myself, how would I provide for him? I asked myself this question and the question of did I do the right thing? For so long I struggled, but the past is gone, and maybe you should stop trying to change the past and restart. Build a new relationship with her. She might just forgive you."

"Really?" Cora said with a sniffle.

"Yes." Emma said softly.

Then Henry walked over to Emma and Cora and whispered, "stay very quiet and still."

Emma whispered "Crap, you don't mean?"

"Yes, I do."

They looked behind them and there was an ogre standing right there.

"What do we did?" Henry asked his mother.

"Walk, be very careful not to make a sound." Emma whispered in fear, but she knew she needed to stay calm for Henry.

"Can't you poof us out of here?" Emma whispered to Cora.

"No, the only was that I can teleport is if someone summoned me. My magic was taken as punishment of war crimes in the ogres war." Cora explained.

"So I'm guessing it's not over yet?" Emma asked.

"Not for a long shot." Cora said sarcastically.

"Mom, can't you use your magic?" Henry asked eagerly.

"Maybe, but I'm not very good."

"Just try, but don't think about what your doing, think of a place you want to go."

"Ok."

*poof*

"Mom, you did it!" Henry said proudly.

"Ok, we have to set up camp for tonight." Henry said

"No, we don't, now that I can do magic I can poof us to my mom and dads castle."

*poof*

"Where are we." Henry asked.

"In my nursery." Emma said softly

"Ok, we can camp here and gather supply's for tomorrow." Emma said.

"How are we gonna get home? Henry said

"There are no more beans, at least, in this land. We are gonna have to search for another way to get home."

"How?" Henry asked.

"I don't know kid, I don't know."
