Sorry for such the delay everyone. I've been in a big slump writing fanfiction lately. It seemed like all I needed was a visit from my friend honeybadgerhook to get me going again! I hope you enjoy the conclusion of Part Two! I look forward to bringing you Part Three soon!

CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT – Storybrooke, In front of the Town Hall

"You ready, love?" Killian asked Emma as they stood in line for the portal.

Kendra had just finished getting it opened, and Colette was finishing up the memory spell that would take hold over each inhabitant went through.

They had already said their goodbyes, not wanting to waste any time with the town collapsing.

Colette walked over to where Kendra was and said "Done! All is in order now. How are you faring after all that?"

"I'll be fine, don't you worry."

Colette gave her friend a worried look, knowing from her friend's grimace and strained posture that she was nowhere close to fine. Kendra was supporting all her weight against a tree, staring at her parents as they crossed through the portal.

The last few people walked through, and after a pause Rumplestiltskin emerged from the shadows to cross through the portal too.

"That's the last of them," Kendra said, "let's shut it down and go home."

Colette nodded, squeezing her friend's shoulder in a reassuring way. Together they broke down the portal.

Colette tried to hide her startled reaction when she felt Kendra's magic mingle with her own. She had worked with it countless times, but something was very wrong with it now. It scared her, but she kept her face neutral as she saw that Kendra was terrified too.

Once it was collapsed, they ran to the ship, feeling the trembles of another earthquake coming.

Kendra and Colette used their magic to hoist the sails and set off swiftly, trying to get away as fast as they could from the docks.

A loud crack sounded from the direction of the town, and with a mighty rumble the two girls witnessed the town sink into the earth. The force of it sent waves their way, large enough to capsize The Savior Swan, and Kendra, making a rash decision and deciding to see what she was capable of, opened a portal right then and there just thinking vaguely of the docks.

Just as the waves were upon them, the ship sank out of view from the portal, and with that Storybrooke, Maine was abandoned forever.

-The Enchanted Forest, Down By The Docks-

Everyone, minus Emma, Regina, Belle, and Rumple was sitting on The Jolly Roger having fun in all of the Summer Festival. Even Oliver and Leif had put aside their differences for the time being to join in a few games aboard The Jolly Roger.

Suddenly, the cloudless sky darkened, and portal opened up above the dock directly next to the pirate ship. The Savior Swan fell out of the portal and landed at the dock with a massive splash, soaking everyone aboard The Jolly Roger and many of the people near the docks. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and the docks and ship were left mostly undamaged. The entire crowd gathered near the docks, waiting to get a glimpse of The Savior Swan and its passengers.

"Bloody hell!" Killian sprinted off The Jolly Roger, pushing through the crowds with the entirety of the royal family and their friends following behind. "Kendra! Colette! Are you alright?"

The first person to arise from the deck of the ship was Colette, struggling to stand, her clothes and hair in disarray. She was shaking all over, shivering in her wet clothing.

Everyone stood stunned, watching cautiously the ship that had appeared out of nowhere, until a shout came up from the Jolly Roger.

"COLETTE!"

"L-l-Liam!" Colette said through her chattering teeth.

Liam pushed through the crowd on the deck, jumped overboard, and climbed up a rope hanging off the side of the ship. Sopping wet but for once not caring in the slightest, he rushed over and practically tackled his fiancé.

Colette returned the embrace warmly, crying and laughing from relief. She clung to him, and said "I m-missed y-y-you so m-much!"

"And I you." And with that, he kissed her firmly on the mouth while the crowd gave a raucous cheer.

Neal, being much more sensible, and not nearly as lovesick as Liam, set a large gangplank across the decks of the two ships. Almost everyone came over, but Killian and came over and demanded "Where's Kendra?"

Colette stumbled a bit over to them, said "S-she..." But then they heard a groan from the other end of the ship and he raced over. While he tended to Kendra, Neal shouted to the on looking crowd "Everyone, please join us at the castle for the rest of the celebration! We shall be honoring the Saviors of Storybrooke, Emma, Colette, and Kendra!"

The crowd cheered, and everyone began meandering toward the castle. Colette resisted and kept trying to get to Kendra, but Liam caught her and said quietly "She's with our father now, she'll be fine. Let's get you to the castle before you freeze to death. She wouldn't want you to stand here worrying."

Colette nodded, Liam put his arm around her, and they joined the crowd, but not without Colette constantly looking behind them to try to get a glimpse of her friend.

"Kendra?" Killian hurried over to her wet, shivering form curled up near the helm. Something was not right about his daughter.

"Kendra, you're back!" Leif ran towards her, but Killian pulled him away. Oliver stood at the gangplank, seeing that something was off about her as well.

"Look at me." Killian knelt down, placing a hand on her shoulder. Weakly, Kendra glanced up at her father and panic set in as he noticed all the light drained from her eyes. "Someone go get a blanket!"

Leif looked at Oliver. "Stay here with her, I'll go get one from her cabin." Oliver took a few hesitant steps forwards as Leif left. He pulled up a crate and sat on it, watching as Kendra barely reacted to anything.

"What's wrong with her?" Oliver asked and Kendra's eyes looked up to his. He had never seen so much terror in her before. She was always the toughest out of all of them.

"I got it!" Leif ran back with a blanket in hand and gave it to Killian.

Gently, Killian wrapped it around her before scooping her off the deck of the Savior Swan. As he lifted her off the deck, something fell out of Kendra's jacket, hitting the ground with a metallic clang. "Is that what I bloody think it is?"

Oliver hopped up, bending down to pick up the object. "I thought this didn't exist anymore…" He trembled as he turned it over. "Killian?"

"Aye?"

"It has her name on it…" Oliver flipped it over to reveal the lettering to Killian.

"I'm sorry…" Kendra muttered and Killian flinched. "I didn't know what the price of my magic would be…"

"It's not your fault Kendra. We will find a way to get the darkness out of you." Kendra put an arm around her father's neck and he let her down easily. "Can you walk?"

"Aye." Kendra pulled the blanket around herself and followed Killian off the Savior Swan and towards the castle. Oliver and Leif followed closely behind, keeping a sharp eye on her. Oliver kept the dagger tight in his hand, making sure to hide it from the peering eyes of the townsfolk as they went by.

"What are we going to do about that?" Leif nodded towards Oliver's hand as they entered the castle.

"It will be up to Kendra." Killian said, putting his arm around her.

She gave a small smile to her father before glancing back at Oliver and Leif. Her face dropped as she looked at the two. "I'm so sorry…"
