↬Chapter Twenty One-A Land Without Magic↬

↬↬↬

I only own Jade/Camilla and my ideas.

Within the Enchanted Forest and in the Evil Queen's prison was Prince Charming, attempting to break the lock of his cell. He held a rock and hit it against the lock, with no success.

"I will find you, Snow. I will always find you." James stated as two guards approach and unlock the cell.

"It'll be hard to do that without your head. Get up, the Queen is looking forward to your execution." The first guard told as the guards escort Prince Charming down a hallway. When they got halfway down the hallway, Charming fell.

"Get up! On your feet." The second guard instructed though it sounded more feminine, soon a fight between Prince Charming and the two guards ensues. Charming prevails and escaped down the hallway. He encountered another guard, drawing a bow. He turned back the way he came, encountering a fourth guard.

"Shoot him." The fourth guard demanded as the guard fired his arrow, shooting the other guard.

"Who the hell are you?" James asked in slight confusion as the guard removes his helmet, revealing himself to be the Huntsman. Another guard came up before removing the helmet which revealed Jade standing there.

"A friend." The huntsman told.

"I don't know you." James frowned as Jade held her jaw.

"But I know Snow White." Huntsman countered.

"Is she okay?" James asked almost instantly.

"The Queen was traveling to meet her." The huntsman responded as he removed Charming's shackles, "Her fate is in a precarious place. We must hurry. Follow me, I can get you out. I'll try and stall the Queen. The rest is up to you." He handed Charming his sword and some supplies "Your weapon, and some provisions. Good luck."

"You're not coming with me?" James asked in slight confusion.

"I cannot. I gave up my heart so that the Queen would spare Snow's. Don't let my sacrifice be in vain. Find her. And if you need help, I'm sure your friend there, would happily help you." The huntsman told as he pointed to Jade who stood behind James.

"We might want to be quick, I'm not sure how long Snow's got left. She needs you James." Jade told with a lot of concern in her face.

Within the walls of the hospital stood Emma, Camilla and Henry laid on a stretcher. Henry Mills was being rushed into the ICU on a stretcher with both Emma Swan and Camilla on both of his side.

"Henry, can you hear me? Come on Henry, wake up, please! Come on Henry. Come on, you can do it!" Emma called out as Camilla knew that it wouldn't work. A nurse attempted to pull Emma away.

"Ma'am, you need to --" the nurse started as Emma told, "No, I am not going anywhere. Henry!" Dr. Whale had came in to examine Henry.

"There's no pupil response. What happened, did he fall? Hit his head?" Whale asked.

Camilla held up a bag which revealed the apple turnover "He ate this. I think it's poisoned."

"His airway's clear. Did he vomit? Any convulsions or disorientation?" Whale asked.

"He took a bite of this and then he just collapsed! So run the tests for arsenic or bleach or Drano or whatever could have done this to him!" Emma demanded.

"The boy is showing no symptoms that would suggest neurotoxins. So whatever's going on," Whale trailed off as he took the turnover from Camilla, "This is not the culprit!"

"Well what else could it be?!" Camilla asked as her voice became slightly louder, Emma placed a hand on the female's shoulder in an attempted to calm her down. Camilla just shot her a look and almost in an instant Emma took her hand off of the Hopper child's shoulder.

"I don't know. That's what I'm trying to find out." Whale told.

"He's gonna be okay though, right?" Emma asked in a calmer voice.

"Right now we just need to stabilize him, 'cause he's slipping away." Whale told, "Is there anything else that you can remember, any little detail?"

"I already told you everything. Do something!" Emma demanded as she dumped out Henry's backpack onto a bed.

"Look, I understand you're frustrated Miss Swan. I do, but I need something to treat. Right now there is no explanation. It's like..." Whale trailed off as Emma cut in saying, "...like magic."

Emma picked up the "Once Upon a Time" storybook. She stands there for a moment with slight wide eyes by this time Regina had arrived at the hospital and walked into the room of which held Henry.

"Where's my son!?" Regina demanded.

"You did this!" Camilla growled as she practically ran towards the Mayor and held her against the wall, "this is your fault!"

"No." Regina simply told as she shook her head. Emma grabbed onto Camilla's shoulder and dragged both, Regina and Camilla into a supply closet.

"You did this!" Emma spat.

"What the hell are you doing!? Stop this, my son--" Regina responded.

"Is sick because of you! That apple turnover you gave me-he ate it!" Emma said cutting off Regina.

"What? It was meant for you!" Regina huffed.

"It's true isn't it?" Camilla asked as she gave her a confused look.

"What are you talking about?" Regina asked in slight confusion, her eyes shot between both Emma and Camilla.

"It's true isn't it!? All of it." Emma demanded.

"Yes." Regina sighed as Camilla said, "everything in the book is true."

"I was leaving town, why couldn't you just leave things alone?" Emma asked, Camilla could noticed the anger building up in her eyes.

"Because as long as you're alive, Henry will never be mine." Regina told.

"He will never be anyone's unless you fix this. You wake him up!" Emma growled.

"You can't." Camilla sighed as Regina yelled, "I can't!"

"Don't you have magic?" Emma asked the mayor.

Regina shook her head, "That was the last of it. It was supposed to put you to sleep!"

"What's it gonna do to him?" Emma asked.

"I don't know. Magic here is unpredictable." Regina told with a sigh.

Camilla's eyes widened at the thought of Henry dying, her voice broke as she spoke, "So... so he could..."

"Yes." Regina nodded, both Emma and Camilla shared the same worried look.

"So what do we do?" Emma asked as she crossed her arms.

"We need help. There's one other person in town who knows about this. Knows about magic." Regina told.

"Mr. Gold..." Emma trailed off.

"Actually, he goes by Rumplestiltskin." Regina corrected.

"Or otherwise known as my idiotic father." Camilla told with a sigh as Regina gave her a small look, "I've got half of my memories back."

Within The Dark Palace of The Evil Queen, she paces in a rage as the Huntsman arrived into the room.

"Where is he? The prisoner!" Regina demanded.

"Escaped." The Huntsman responded as the Queen blasted the Huntsman against the wall with her magic before She walked towards him.

"A palace full of guards, and you let him escape?" The Evil Queen asked.

"I did my best." The Huntsman responded.

"You failed!" Regina spat, "And do you know what happens to people who fail me, Huntsman?"

"I'll find him. You needn't worry. Leave him to me." The Huntsman told as Regina looked into a mirror, showing Prince Charming and Jade running along the beach.

"Bitch," Regina growled at the sight of Jade before turning her attention back to what The Huntsman said, "That won't be necessary. He's mine. And so is she." She transports him and Jade to the Infinite Forest with her magic.

Both James and Jade shared a look of confusion as they found themselves in a completely different location of which they were just in. They look at their surroundings before both of them ran off on the same direction, they both soon reach a clearing.

"Lost, are we?" A voice asked behind the two. Jade tensed up as James turned to face the man.

"What are you doing here?" James asked as Jade turned around.

"Yeah, I'd like to know that as well." Jade told with a small smirk.

"I'm just here to help." Rumpelstiltskin responded.

"Well, no need. We'll be fine." James told the man.

"No I don't think so," Rumple began as Jade rolled her eyes, "This is the Infinite Forest. There's no way out. Well, except... my way."

"We want nothing from you." Jade harshly told.

"Jay's got a point." James said.

"Not even this?" Rumple asked as he held up James' mother's ring.

"My mother's ring.. it was just.." James said confused before checking his purse, "How did you get it!?" His voice was now angrier than what it was before.

"The same way he always gets everything he wants, magic." Jade bluntly told.

"Exactly and the same magic that allows me to do.." He tossed the ring into the air and catches it, "this." The ring glowed a strong vibrant colour, "This ring is now enchanted. The closer you get to Snow White, the brighter it will glow. Interested?"

James took a step towards the scaled man, "Give it to me."

"Ah! It's not something for nothing, dearie! Time to make a deal." Rumpelstiltskin tutted with a small smirk.

"No! No more deals!" James yelled as he attempted to attack Rumplestiltskin, who easily dodged him. Rumplestiltskin appeared behind him, with a sword in his hand.

"James! Be careful!" Jade called out just as the scaled man puffed up chains which connected Jade's wrist towards the floor. Rumplestiltskin shot her a smirk before he said, "Over here!" The pair clash swords briefly before Rumplestiltskin appeared behind James, yet again.

"Persistent." Rumple said as they continued to fight, "Had enough?"

"Never!" James responded in a yell as the fight continued, the Prince managed to scratch Rumplestiltskin's face but he healed it with his magic. The fight proceeded, Rumplestiltskin then threw James against a tree with his magic. The blonde prince rolled onto his back on the ground, and Rumplestiltskin stood over him with his sword at his neck.

"Looking for this? So brave.. so gallant. So pointless. Bravery won't get you out of this forest, dearie. Magic will. Trust me. This is a deal you want to make, because we both want the same thing." Rumpelstiltskin told with a smirk.

"Don't trust him! He's probably lying!" Jade called out as she attempted to near the two, the chains rattled and pulled her back.

"What's that?" James asked, ignoring the girls warning.

"Why, you and your true love to be together, of course. Hmm?" Rumpelstiltskin asked with a slight smirk.

Outside Granny's Diner was Mary Margaret, she was alone as she approached her car, as she became closer to her car, David approached her.

"Hey." David greeted.

"David." Mary Margaret said as she stopped in her tracks.

"I was wrong... About you, about me. About... everything. I didn't believe in you, and I wish I had a good reason why... But it's like I keep making these wrong decisions, and I don't understand why they keep happening. You know, ever since I woke up from that coma, my life hasn't made a lick of sense. Except for you, and what I'm feeling... It's love, Mary Margaret." David explained, quickly getting to the point of what he wanted to talk about.

"David, why are you here?" Mary Margaret asked the man, obviously not really in the mood.

"Because Kathryn put a down payment on an apartment in Boston. She's not gonna use it, but I am. Unless you give me a reason to stay." David responded.

"David. I can't." Mary Margaret told as she got into her car.

Within the Infinite forest stood James, Jade and Rumplestiltskin, as the Dark One was holding Jade's True Love Potion.

"Behold. The most powerful magic of all... True love." Rumpelstiltskin told as James reached for the potion, "Ah! Careful. This is all I have left of it."

"What do you know of true love?" James asked.

"Well, not as much as you, perhaps, but not so little as you might think." Rumpelstiltskin responded.

"You? You love someone?" James asked a little confused.

"Well, obviously, otherwise how the hell would I exist?" Jade sarcastically asked as she rolled her eyes.

"It was a brief flicker of light amidst an ocean of darkness." Rumple told.

"What happened?" James asked the man.

"She died." Jade told, burying into the conversation, yet again.

"Exactly, that's the thing about true love, dearie. It can slip through your fingers. It's the most powerful magic in the world, the only magic powerful enough to break any curse. It must be protected at all costs." Rumpelstiltskin explained, Jade's mind went straight to Peter and how much she missed him.

"I don't understand. What exactly is it you want me to do?" James asked in slight confusion.

"I want both you and Jade to help me protect it by putting in a safe place for me." Rumple explained as Jade instantly snapped her head towards the man at the sound of their name just as he created an egg and placed the potion inside it.

"And where is that, exactly?" Jade asked, now interested.

"Why, inside the belly of a beast, of course!" Rumpelstiltskin told as he tossed James the egg and got rid of the chains of which clung onto Jade's wrist.

"Why hide it?" James asked.

"Let's just say... I'm saving it for a rainy day." Rumpelstiltskin simply responded.

Emma and Regina entered Gold's shop though Camilla basically got dragged into the shop. Regina pulled the girl behind her as Camilla's arms were crossed.

"Do my eyes deceive me, or is that the look of a believer?" Gold asked.

"We need your help." Emma bluntly told.

"Indeed, you do. It seems quite the tragic ailment has befallen our young friend." Gold told as he looked at Regina, "I told you magic comes with a price."

"Henry shouldn't have to pay it." Regina told.

"Regina's got a point, father." Camilla spoke up as she shot the man a death stare, Gold rose a brow at the girl, surprised that she remembered.

"No, you should Regina, but alas, we are where we are." Gold told.

"Can you help us?" Emma asked.

"Of course. True love, Miss Swan-the only magic strong enough to transcend realms and break any curse. Luckily for you, I happen to have bottled some." Gold explained.

"You did?" Regina asked as her eyebrows shot up.

"Oh yes. From strands of both your parents' and Jade and Peters' hair, I made the most powerful potion in all the realm. So powerful, that, when I created the Dark Curse, I placed a single drop on the parchment. Just a little safety valve." Gold told as near enough all pairs of eyes went to Camilla.

"Wait, can I just ask, you obviously used her parents' True Love potion for the Dark curse, what happened to the rest of it?" Camilla asked as her eyebrows knitted together.

"That is a tale for another day." Gold responded.

"That's why I'm the savior, that's why I can break the curse." Emma said, working it all together.

"Now you're getting it." Gold slightly smirked.

"I don't care about breaking the curse. All I care about is saving Henry." Emma spat in a rather harsh tone.

"Which is why it's your lucky day. I didn't use Camilla's one. I saved it. For a rainy day." Gold told them.

"Well, it's storming like a bitch. Where is it?" Emma asked as she crossed her arms.

"Where it is, isn't the problem. Getting it is what should worry you." Gold said.

"Enough riddles. What do we do?" Regina huffed.

"You do nothing. It has to be Miss Swan." Gold spoke as he pointed towards the blonde.

"He's my son. It should be me." Regina spoke.

"All due respect, but it's her son. And it has to be her. She's the product of the magic. She must be the one to find it." Gold explained.

"I can do it." Emma nodded. If Camilla had to be honest, Emma's confidence made Camilla want to hit her head. Repeatedly.

"I wouldn't trust him if I was you, trust me." Camilla piped in.

"What choice do we have?" Emma asked as she turned her head to face her.

"That's right dearie, What choice do you have?" Gold asked, repeating the same question again.

"Where is this magic?" Emma asked.

"Tell me, your Majesty, is our friend still in the basement?" Gold questioned, now turning his attention to Madam bitch.

"Oh, you twisted little imp. You hid it with her?" Regina asked with wide eyes.

"Oh no no no, not with her. In her. I knew you couldn't resist bringing her over." Gold told them.

"Who is "her"?" Emma asked, confused.

"Someone you should be prepared for. Where you're going, you're gonna need this." Gold explained as he turned, picked up a case before opening it, revealing Prince Charming's sword.

"What is that?" Emma asked as she looked at it.

"Your father's sword." Gold responded, "oh and Camilla, I've got something for you."

With that being said, Camilla neared the man as he lifted up a case and opened it, revealing her sword and multiple of her daggers. A smirk grew on her face as she held up one of he daggers and spun it round her finger before placing it back down into the case.

"What are those?" Emma asked the girl.

"They're my knives and my sword." Camilla told as a smirk grew on her face, "I'll be back for these."

"I'll make sure to keep them safe." Gold shot her a small smile.

They had made their way back to the hospital as Camilla decided to stand in the room as Emma stood over the small boy who laid as if he was dead.

"Henry. You were right about the curse. I should have believed you. I'm sorry." Emma spoke as she placed his book on the bedside table, "For when you wake up." She crossed the room and exited as Regina entered the room, "Say what you gotta say, you got ten minutes."

"You know where to meet?" Regina asked.

"Yeah. Don't be late." Emma told before turning towards Camilla, "wanna come?"

Camilla shook her head, "you've got it. If it comes to it, just throw the sword at your target."

Emma nodded before leaving.

Regina crossed the room to Henry's bedside, "I'm sorry."

"Pity, isn't it? There's nothing harder than not knowing whether you'll ever see your child again." Jefferson said as he came up behind Regina.

"Jefferson, now is not a good time." Regina told, she looked towards Camilla forgetting that she was in the room, "can you give us a minute?"

"Sure." Camilla nodded she walked passed Jefferson as she said, "nice to see you again, Hatter." With that being said she walked out the room as Jefferson rose a brow.

Shaking his head, he turned his attention back to Regina, "For you. Well, for me, it's the perfect time. I'm here to collect. Where-where is she-my daughter?"

"Emma was supposed to eat that apple and she didn't. As far as I'm concerned, that makes our deal null and void." Regina responded.

"I did what you asked, and you're gonna screw me over again?" Jefferson asked as annoyance filled his voice.

"Look at it however you want, Jefferson. The fact is, I'm done with you." Regina spat.

"But I'm-- I'm not done with you." Jefferson said.

"What are you going to do? Kill me? I know you want to, but I also know you can't." Regina taunted.

"Do you?" Jefferson asked as an eyebrow shot up.

"Yes. You don't have it in you. Now, if you excuse me, I have to save my son." Regina told as she walked out of the room.

Emma had made her way towards Granny's inn, she stood outside August's room before knocking on the door.

"August? Please open up. I know you're in there, open the door." Emma called out, in hopes to speak to the man.

"I can't." August said as Emma forced the door open, August was laying on his bed as his arms were visibly wooden.

"No. What's happening to you?" Emma asked, seeing the wood covering his flesh.

"You can see it now. You believe." August said with a small smile.

"Yeah, I do, but... H-How do I stop this?" Emma asked as worry started to set in.

"Break the curse." August simply responded.

"I'll do it I promise, but I gotta save Henry first and I need your help." Emma told.

"No, you don't."

"Yeah, I do. This is all too much. I-I just... talked to the Evil Queen, Rumplestiltskin and Jade Stiltskin about a quest to find magic. I can't do it August, I can't. No normal person can." Emma explained.

"Luckily for us, you're not normal. You can save Henry. You can save all of..." August's words were cut off as his transformation into wood was completed. The man was now back to being a wooden puppet.

"August?" Emma asked as her voice cracked as she began to cry.

Emma stood outside the boarded up clock tower as Regina arrived shortly after and unlocked the door.

"What is this place?" Emma asked as she looked around.

"Would you like a tour, or shall we just get to it?" Regina sarcastically questioned.

"Lead the way." Emma gestured as Regina lifted a wall revealing an elevator, "Whoa."

"Get in." Regina demanded.

"After you." Emma told.

"It's a two-man job, the elevator's hand-operated. I have to stay up here and lower you down." Regina explained to the blonde.

"And I'm just supposed to trust you?" Emma asked as she rose a brow.

"I don't think you have much choice in the matter, Miss Swan." Regina retorted.

"This battle I'm supposed to fight-who is it? What is down there?" Emma questioned.

"An old friend." Regina simply responded.

"Then why don't you go talk to them?" Emma asked.

"Because her punishment here was different than everyone else's. I trapped her... in a different form. She doesn't wanna hear from me. You have to trust me on that." Regina explained.

"Okay, I will go down there. But let's be clear about something... "your Majesty". The only reason you're not dead is because I need your help to save Henry. If he dies... so do you." Emma threatened.

"Well then let's get on with it. Now, this is what you're going to have to do." Regina began.

The elevator of which held Emma went down is shack as the blonde unsheathed the sword.

Within The Forbidden Fortress was James and Jade as Maleficent ascended some stairs to sit on a throne. James' sword appeared at her throat as Jade held her bow and arrow strong towards the female.

"Where is it? Where is the beast that reigns over this castle?" James demanded.

Maleficent knocked James and Jade back with magic, "That would be me." She stood up and descended the steps to James and Jade, "But "beast" is so harsh. I prefer "Maleficent"."

"We're gonna need a smaller egg." James gulped.

"You think." Jade sarcastically said.

"Such a shame. So handsome." Maleficent muttered, referring to James as both Jade and James stood up and Maleficent blew out all the candles with her magic. James flails his sword in the darkness briefly, and Maleficent is heard cackling.

"Jade, go." James told as Jade went off to the place of which they discussed she would stand against the beast, "Show yourself, witch." Maleficent, now a dragon, appeared behind him and chased him across the room. Jade instantly shot one of her arrows towards the beast.

Below the clocktower, the Elevator of which carried Emma arrived at the bottom of the shaft. She exited into a mining tunnel, and briefly examined Snow White's glass coffin. Suddenly, a green eye appeared behind her, and Maleficent roars as Emma faces her.

Maleficent shot flames at James, who was hidden behind a column. He looked down at the egg briefly, and smiled slightly.

"Come on!" James yelled as Maleficent chased him. Jade shot arrows towards the dragon in hopes to distract it in some way though it seemed mainly focused on James.

Within the mining tunnels, Emma stood as she attempted to attack the dragon with the sword in her hands.

She looked at the sword, "To hell with this." She dropped it and took out her gun, shooting at the dragon, which shot flames at her as she is behind a rock formation.

Both James and Jade attempted to get the egg into the dragon, though most of the time it was just James getting chased by the dragon as Jade attempted to shoot at the dragon.

Jade had managed to shot an arrow which caught the attention of the dragon. With the dragon's attention diverted from James, he managed to jump into the dragon and throw it into her mouth. He jumped down as Jade jumped down where she was before the two of them jumped out of the window into the water below.

Within the four walls of the hospital was Mary Margaret and Camilla as they sat either side of the boy. Mary Margaret sat their as she read the book and Camilla just held onto his hand.

"And yes, she was beyond hope, beyond saving. This was her end. When Prince Charming saw his beloved Snow White in her glass coffin, he knew that all that was left was to say good-bye. He had to give her one last kiss, and when he did, true love proved more powerful than any curse. A pulse of pure love shuttered out and engulfed the land, waking up Snow White and bringing light to the darkness." Mary Margaret read, "Henry, when I gave you this book it was because I knew... I know life doesn't always have a happy end. But I thought..." she was cut off by the machines starting to beep rapidly.

"What is it? Dr. Whale!?" Camilla called out as Dr. Whale and a nurse rush in.

"Dr. What what is that? What-What is wrong?" Mary Margaret asked.

"Nurse, get the both of them out of here. NOW!" Whale demanded.

"What's going on?" Mary Margaret asked as a nurse escorted her and Camilla out, and another performs CPR on Henry.

"His heart rate's falling. Come on, Henry!" Whale called. Camilla covered her mouth as she placed her head on Mary Margaret's shoulder considering that she didn't want to watch as her brother-like figure die.

"Nurse to ICU, STAT. Nurse to ICU, STAT. Defibrillator team to ICU, defibrillator team to ICU." An announcer called out as this was getting called out, a male in scrubs opens the 'Exit' door that lead to the psychiatric ward.

The man handed tea to the Nurse Ratched, "Your tea."

"Thank you. What's the commotion upstairs?" The nurse asked as she took a sip of the tea.

"There's a sick boy, he took a bad turn." The man responded.

"How tragic. Is there any hope for a--" The nurse was unable to finish her sentence before she slumped over, unconscious.

"Recovery?" The man asked though he knew he wasn't going to get an answer, "Doubtful." He took the keys and a coat, walking down the hallway to the room of Belle. He unlocks the door and extended his hand to her, "Come with me."

"Who are you? Why are you doing this?" Belle questioned the male.

"My name is Jefferson, and I need your help to do something that I can't. There's a man, his name is Mr. Gold. Find him. All you have to do is tell him where you've been, and that Regina locked you up." Jefferson explained.

"Wait a minute, what?" Belle asked, confused by what he meant.

"It's very important. Mr. Gold's gonna protect you but you have to tell him Regina locked you up. He's gonna know what to do. You understand?" Jefferson told the woman sat on the bed.

"Yes, I-I have to find Mr. Gold." Belle nodded.

The two had managed to swim towards the beach of the Forbidden Fortress. They walked out of the water and headed towards Rumplestiltskin.

Impressive, dearies. Very impressive, indeed. Come warm yourselves." Rumpelstiltskin told.

"We've have done what you've asked. Return my ring to me." James demanded.

"Of course, you're in a bit of a rush. How rude of me." Rumple said as he held up the ring, "With this... Prince Charming... you will find her."

James took hold of the ring and said, "Thank you."

"Something's missing." With that being said he transformed James' clothing into much fancier attire and just drying Jade's clothes, "Now you're ready for your big moment."

"Why do you want them together? What do you get out of it?" Jade asked knowing that there was always a reason behind why he done thing.

"I'm a fan of true love, dearie, and, more importantly, what it creates." Rumpelstiltskin responded.

"Pervert." Jade muttered.

Within the mining tunnels, Emma continued to shoot at Maleficent. She soon realised that it didn't work, she took hold of the sword and threw it into the dragon, destroying her, leaving behind the egg of which contained the True Love Potion.

Both Jade and James rode through the countryside on a two white steed, entering the forest and soon arriving at Snow White's coffin, surrounded by the dwarves.

"You're too late." Doc told.

"No. No! At least let me say good-bye." James demanded as the dwarves remove the lid and James kissed Snow White, which released a blast of magic. Snow White White gasped for air and awakens from her sleep.

"You found me." Snow smiled as she sat up.

"Did you even doubt I would?" James asked with a smile on his face.

They had made it to the beach, though James and Snow wanted some alone time, which Jade found understandable due to the amount of time they were apart for.

"How did you do it?" Snow asked as the two walked along the beach side.

"With this." James responded as he held up his mother's ring, "It's my mother's ring. It... led me back to you. And now... I never want it off your finger." He got down on one knee, "Will you marry me?"

"What do you think?" Snow retorted as the pair kiss.

Snow pulled away from the kiss as James asked, "What is it?"

"There's the little matter of your father and my stepmother." Snow responded.

"Ah. That. I'm open to suggestions." James said.

"Here's one. Let's take back the kingdom." Snow suggested.

"How?" James questioned his True Love.

"Like we shall do everything, together." Snow responded.

Emma stood within the elevator as she made her way back up to the abandoned building before it had made a sudden stop.

"Regina! What the hell was that?! Regina!" Emma called out.

"Miss Swan? You've got it?" Gold asked as he appeared at the top of the elevator shaft.

"Mr. Gold? What are you doing here?" Emma asked in slight confusion of why he was there.

"I've come to check on you. I'm glad I did. Regina abandoned you and sabotaged the elevator." Gold responded.

"What? I'm coming up!" Emma told.

"No there's-- there's no time for this. You can't possibly scale the wall and carry that." Gold explained to the blonde.

"Yeah? Well I can try." Emma said.

"No you can't, just toss it up. Your boy's gonna be fine. I promise. We're running out of time, toss it up." Gold responded to the blondes comment.

"Okay. You hold on to it, I'll be right up." Emma told as she tossed up the egg, when Gold caught it he walked away, "Mr. Gold? Gold!" Emma climbed up and out of the shaft to find Regina, tied up, "Regina?"

"He tricked you! How could you give him that?" Regina asked the female.

"Where is he?" Emma asked the mayor as she looked around.

"Gone." Regina told as Emma untied her, "Gold. He manipulated all of this."

"Come on, he can't be that far!" Emma said, just as the two were about to leave, both women's cell phones start ringing and they check them, "It's the hospital."

Emma and Regina both rush to the ICU as Dr. Whale and Mother Superior exit. Emma noticed how Camilla was in tears, which for her, was slightly unusual.

"We did everything we could." Whale told with sadness in his voice.

"I'm sorry. You're too late." Mother Superior said as Emma entered the ICU as a nurse turns off a machine and removed a breathing mask from Henry's face.

Emma, Regina, Camilla, Dr. Whale and Mother Superior were gathered around Henry's bed. Camilla wiped away the tears that ran down her cheeks.

"No.." Regina trailed off as she turned and cried on Dr. Whale's shoulder, "No."

Emma crossed to Henry's side as tears ran down her face, "I love you Henry." She kissed his forehead and a blast radiates out. Henry gasped as he wakes up.

"I love you, too. You saved me." Henry smiled as he sat up.

"You did it." Regina told with a sigh.

Memories flooded back into Camilla's mind, she remembered everything, she remembered Peter and her time on Neverland, she remembered what she felt when she got pulled from Neverland, she remembered every small detail of what happened to her throughout her life within the enchanted forest.

"Henry, what's going on?" Emma asked the small boy.

"No." Regina muttered.

"The curse... I think you broke it!" Henry cheered.

"That was true love's kiss." Mother Superior said with a warm smile.

"No. No!" Regina groaned, her curse was officially broke, and there was nothing that she could do about it.

"If I were you, your Majesty, I'd find a place to hide." Mother Superior told before turning her attention to Camilla, "and I'd suggest the same to you."

"Hell no, I'm not hiding, I don't care what they're going to do. I did what I did because of her! It was her who made me work for her!" Camilla snapped, "and if they don't give me a chance to explain what I did, then they're pathetic."

Regina approached Henry's bed, as she did, she shot Camilla a glare before turning to face Henry saying, "Henry... no matter what you think, no matter what anyone tells you, I do love you." With that being said, she got up and left the room.

David was walking down the street, with his memories back into his mind and just one thought running through his head, to find his wife. As he walked, he spotted Mary Margaret on the other side of the road.

"Snow!" David called out, gaining the attention of his wife.

Mary Margaret looked up to see her husband, "Charming." The two ran to each other, "You found me."

"Did you ever doubt I would?" David asked as the pair kiss.

Regina sat on Henry's bed as she picked up his pillow, and sobs into it, sadness filled the woman, knowing that she wouldn't see her son ever again.

Mr. Gold and Belle was walking throughout the woods as Belle followed where Gold was heading towards.

"Wait." Belle called out.

"No, no. We've very close." Gold told as he offered a hand to help her.

"Rumplestiltskin, wait." Belle called out, at the sound of his name he stopped in his tracks and turned around, by this time, Belle caught up to him, "I-I remember. I-I love you." The two hugged.

"Yes, yes. And I love you, too. But hey, there'll be time for that. There'll be time for everything. But first, there's something I must do." Gold smiled as the two come to the wishing well.

"What is this?" Belle questioned the man.

"This is a very special place, Belle. The waters that run below are said to have the power to return that which one has lost." Gold explained to her as he dropped the True Love Potion into the well. Purple smoke rose out and spreads towards the town.

Emma, Camilla and Henry all stood -well Henry laid- within the ICU of the hospital.

"Henry, what's going on here? If the curse is broken, why didn't they go back?" Emma asked the small boy.

"I... I don't know." Henry responded.

Camilla bounced on the balls of her feet, wanting to find both David and Mary Margaret to apologise of what she had done.

"Henry, Emma, I'm going to and find Mary Margaret and David - I mean Snow and Charming - I need to apologise." Camilla told as both of them have her a nod. Just as the girl left, a nurse dropped something on the floor and Emma approached her, Camilla simply ignored it and ran straight out of the hospital and continued to run into the street.

Camilla slowed into a jog before going into a stop as she saw the purple smoke coming closer and closer to the town, she looked at it with wide eyes.

Within the woods was the wishing well as purple smoke continued to flow out of it.

"I-I don't understand..." Belle said as her eyebrows knitted together.

"We're in a land without magic, Belle, and I'm bringing it. Magic... is coming." Gold told with a smirk.

"Why?" Belle asked.

"Why? Because magic... is power." Gold stated.

As the purple smoke rolled into the town, Camilla crouched down as she covered her head with her arms. She didn't know what it was but she had a feeling that it was bad. The smoke covered the entire town just as the clock struck 8:15.
