Shopping crowds
Ann asked for a oneshot of Emma getting lost in a busy shop.
"I hate Primark." Emma groaned. "It's always so crowded with preteens. It'll be even worse today if they've got a summer sale."
"Oh come on Emma, it'll be fun. Besides, we're nice and early, the shop isn't even open, so I bet there will be nobody he…" Snow's eyes widened at the crowd of people waiting at the locked doors of the store.
"Could have chosen New Look or Topshop or even River Island but no, you go for the one that's going to leave us looking like Mufasa and Simba during the stampede scene.
"Well if I die being trampled saving you avenge my death and don't run away into the jungle." Snow joked. "Quick, the doors are opening. You're wanting new jeans, head straight for them and grab them as quickly as you can. I'm going to get your dad a new shirt before getting myself some new pumps. I'll meet you at the vest tops section. Go go go! Emma felt herself being shoved into the store. She tried her best to fight against the crowd of saving obsessed women but they were manic! It didn't take long for Emma to find herself lost, not able to see any good meeting points such as the exit, changing rooms or cash registers.
"Help!" Emma called out. "Mom! Mom where are you?!" Emma didn't even have her phone with her to call her. All she could do was continue to call out and pray that she somehow found her mom. "MOM!"
"Oh Emma, calm down." Snow sighed, pulling her daughter to her side. "Emma why are you in the tights section, you're meant to be getting your jeans! Oh never mind, we'll go there together once I've got my shoes." Emma relaxed, glad to not be alone in the crowds of shopping crazy people. She'd been up against some evil villains in her time but this was something else!
