EPILOGUE-Two Years into the Future
Emma was taking in her surroundings. The forest canopy was thick overhead, dripping with rain. Was she really back in the Enchanted Forest?
"Here love, take this." Killian draped his black leather jacket around Emma's red one. "We don't want you catching a cold."
"I'm pregnant, not helpless." Emma smiled.
Killian's voice dropped down to a whisper. "I have to look out for the three most important loves of my life, Swan." He placed his hand on her stomach and stole a kiss.
"Raising them is going to be a bit different than I expected, and we only have about three months to get ready."
"Aye, and I will be by your side the entire time, my princess."
"The whole princess thing is going to take some getting used to. Are you really sure you are up for living in a castle, Killian?"
"I will be fine, love," Killian smiled. "Once I have the Jolly Roger back, or I steal-," David glared at Killian, "I mean purchase a new ship, I believe I will be a bit more comfortable with the situation. Not to mention I will have our two little ones learning the basics of sailing a vessel as soon as possible."
"Just watch it Killian," David piped in, "you and my daughter's children will be princes or princesses, not pirates."
"Any son or daughter of mine is sure to have at least a little pirate in them, Dave. I will make sure of it."
Emma looked back at everyone taking in their old, new home. She did not want to be part of the situation that was arising between her father and husband. Regina was putting Oliver's hood up for probably the tenth time, with little success. Roland didn't have his on, and if Oliver's big brother didn't have to wear his hood, neither was he. Even at his young age, he was always looking to his older brothers for everything. Robin and Snow were pointing things out to Henry, who was flabbergasted to finally be in the Enchanted Forest. Neal was playing in the dirt by his mother's feet. Colette had gone straight for a patch of bluebells, which Belle was helping her pick. Emma walked over towards Regina.
"Thanks for opening that portal Regina."
Regina looked at Emma puzzled. "Mrs. Jones, I thought you opened the portal."
Emma and Regina just looked at each other. "If I didn't open the portal, and you didn't open the portal, then who did?"
On the other side of the portal, two figures stood in the crumbling remnants of Storybrooke. They watched as Rumplestiltskin dove into the portal to the Enchanted Forest. He would land in a different part of the woods than the others. The younger of the two would make sure of that. The brunette one was focused on her job, wiping the memories of themselves from the minds of all those who entered the portal.
As soon as Rumplestiltskin had made it through, the pirate closed the portal and breathed a sigh of relief. They looked down at their bags which were packed with things that they would take back with them. A couple books, a blue leather jacket, and a chipped teacup were stashed among the items in their packs. Their family back home would love to see some of their long lost items again.
They rushed towards the Storybrooke docks and boarded the grand ship in the harbor. They quickly used their combined magic to lower the sails and set the boat out to sea. The blonde opened a portal in front of the ship as the older one took a place at the helm, steering the ship in. As the town faded around them they plummeted into the center of the portal, waves engulfing the ship, The Savior Swan.
