Stabbed
A guest asked for a oneshot of Charming and Snow getting a call in the middle of the night to say Emma's been in an accident. And lols, don't worry guest. I shall not kill her.
Snow stirred at the noise. She slept so lightly now that Neal was born. But for once it wasn't her son's crying that woke her up- it was the telephone. Groggily, Snow slipped out of the bed and made her way through to the living room to answer.
"Hello?" She said drowsily.
"Hello, Snow?" A voice Snow didn't recognise asked.
"Yes speaking. Why are you calling at this hour?" She asked, slightly annoyed. Surely any town business could wait until the morning!
"I'm one of the nurses at Storybrooke general. Emma's been involved in an altercation. She's been stabbed."
"What?" Snow shouted, suddenly completely awake. Her shouting also woke Charming, who came over beside her, concerned. "Is she alright?"
"I can't tell you any more over the phone. Please make your way here as quickly as possible."
"We'll be over right away." Snow responded before hanging up. She could see Charming looking at her, very concerned. "Emma's been stabbed. I don't know anything else. We have to go over to the hospital right away."
"I'll get Neal." Charming said, his heart beginning to pound. Emma was wounded, she needed them.
Quickly, the pair got both themselves and their son ready before rushing out into the car. They both felt numb. It had come as a total shock. Someone had stabbed their little girl. They just needed to be with her, see that she was going to be ok. They rushed into the hospital, and found a nurse waiting for them.
"Where is she?" Charming asked. "Is she alright?"
"Emma's in surgery just now." The nurse explained, leading them into a waiting room. "She was in the house alone so we didn't get many details before she had to go to theatre. Someone burst into the home armed with a knife. Before Emma had a chance to defend herself they stabbed her in the abdomen and left. We would get the police involved but as you can imagine that's a little difficult in this case."
"Don't be so sure. As soon as I know my daughter is going to be alright I will find whoever did this and they will pay." Charming snarled. The nurse nodded and left the family in the waiting room. Neither sat down, Snow simply set Neal's car seat on one of the chairs and joined her husband in pacing the small room. Emma's life hung in the balance. Neither of them would be able to rest until she was safe and sound.
