I had this idea wandering around in my head for a very long time. It will be long, not that long, but pretty long. I really hope you will enjoy it:)

I don't own anything.

The wave of magic pushes Emma back and she falls on her knees. Damn, it hurts. Her hands, her arms are aching, she tries to move her fingers as she stands up slowly and glances at Regina.

"We did it", she says, and the raven-haired woman nods with a slight of a smile. Emma laughs in relief and lets her mother hug her really tight, and then her father pats her shoulder and gives her a proud look, and then she turns around, holds her hand out for Henry and says, "We did it, kid."

But he's nowhere to be found.

"Kid?" Emma repeats in shock. "Henry!" Regina shouts.

"Oh, no", Emma whispers. She is not losing him, not again. She clenches her fists in anger when they all start running towards the exit. He can't be far.

The sunlight hits her eyes as they come out of the mines, but she doesn't stop. She can't.

"We need to find them!" she yells to her parents. "I'll check at the docks!"

She hears them shouting back something about going to the borders but she doesn't really listen. Regina disappears in purple smoke. And Emma continues running.

It was Tamara and Greg, she's sure about that. Two ordinary people, with no magic but simple weapons, or at least Tamara has a gun. Emma can feel the magic running through her veins like electricity. She could beat them easily. If they do anything to Henry…

The salty ocean air tickles her nose, just like when she's at Henry's castle. She runs faster.

"Swan!" she hears a shout behind. She stops and catches her breath, almost falling to her knees again.

"I really don't have time for you now!" she says, before she could tell where he is. But some small part of her sighs in relief, because he's still here, and he hasn't left.

With the bean he stole from her.

She gets ten times mad than she actually was, even though she doubts that it's possible. Hook runs towards her. "What's the matter? I thought we were saving the town!"

We?

"Well, and I thought you didn't care about anyone but yourself", she snaps back, then looks around and continues running. She needs to find them.

Hook runs right behind her, she can hear his every breath, and really, how can something like that be extremely annoying and incredibly calming at the same time?

"Maybe I just needed reminding that I could", he says when they both slow down at a corner. Emma was about to focus on which direction she should keep going when it just hits her. She turns to face him, "What?"

He looks like he hates explaining things, he propably does pretty much.

"You reminded me", he repeats, holding her the small, glass-like magical bean, "that I could care for others, too. Now, are we gonna save the town or not?"

She gasps. Saving the town. Right. "We already did that."

"Oh", he nods. "That's good I guess."

Emma puts the bean in her pocket. "Greg and Tamara. They took Henry."

If someone would only be telling her this story, she would propably not believe it. The way his face turns, his mouth opens slowly, and he frowns. "Then we must find him", he says with a concerned voice.

And Emma really doesn't have the time to wonder where all this caring comes from suddenly. She had only seen it twice before, and when she learned he'd left with the last bean, she thought it was all gone. But it's not.

She nods, and continues the search, this time with a pirate on her side.

"There!" Hook yells, pointing towards his ship, and there they are, standing on the docks, holding Henry's shoulders, staring down at the water.

"No!" Emma hears herself screaming, then her legs move on their own. They are actually really close, it takes her a few seconds to reach them. Greg notices her first and steps closer to the edge, pulling Henry with him. That's when Emma sees it: a portal in the water, spinning with green light.

"Not so fast, mate", she hears an annoyed voice before Greg gets hit in the head with a hook. Hook grabs Henry and takes him away from the water. Tamara tries to catch him and Greg at the same time, but it really doesn't work well for her. Greg falls right into the portal.

Emma holds out her fingers and feels Henry's calming touch.

"You might want to follow him", she tells Tamara. "The portal can close any second, and you really don't want to stay here with us. There's nothing you could do now."

Her every word is a threat.

But Tamara smiles.

"There is one last thing I can do", she says, holding out a gun. It's different from the one she shot Neal with, but Emma can't tell the exact difference. All she knows is that it's dangerous.

"Get Henry out of here", she tells Hook. He wants to argue but adds, "Now." He slowly back away, covering Henry with his body. Emma sees in the corner of her eye as they disappear. It's funny how she trusts him with her son's life.

"Oh, it was never my intense to hurt Henry, by the way", Tamara says. "But Peter Pan needs him."

"Peter Pan?" Emma asks, trying not to laugh. "How the hell do you know him?"

"Doesn't matter!" Tamara yells, raising the gun, pointing it right at Emma's chest. She gasps. "But it seems like we can't give him the boy until you're in the way. We have plenty of magic beans to come back later. When you're not here."

"You'll never get your hands on my son", Emma hisses.

"We'll see about that", Tamara answers, then fires the gun and jumps into the portal.

I know it's not much for a start, but it screamed for a cliffhanger.

I'd say stuff like don't worry, but I won't because Emma just got shot in the chest and you should all be scared.

And you know what, I'll post the next chapter when I get... let's see, 5 reviews? That's really not much, and I like being cruel.

Bye!
