Fall

Elsa looked out of the clock tower, holding the binoculars close. "Belle was right, my aunt is actually doing this." She pulled her arms down, handing the binoculars to Mary Margaret.

"The spell of shattered sight." She whispered, Brooklyn being the next to take the binoculars.

"It's almost looks..like the first two curses?" She handed her father the binoculars, crossing her arms.

"We open the mines and the vault, we take shelter there."

"This is magic, it doesn't care about ceilings." Brooklyn muttered, earning an impressed look from the woman behind her.

"Didn't know you knew so much?" She spoke, earning a soft look from the girl. "But, the princess warrior is correct. It's started."

"How long?" Hook asked, watching as Regina looked through the binoculars.

"By sundown." She let her arms drop. "By sundown, everyone in this town will start tearing each other apart."

Emma thought for a moment, her eyes forward. "Okay. The answer is simple. Let's not be in town."

She gave them a knowing look, quickly moving back down the stairs. After twenty minutes, the group made it to the town line.

David had fathered some tools to help him climbs over the iced wall, knowing Elsa wasn't able to take it down herself.

"Hardly an elegant solution." Regina spoke, she, Emma and Brooklyn stood at the front as they stared at the wall blocking them in.

"Nothing wrong with brute forces, if it works."

"If we can get over, we can build a frame, take people over one at a time." Jackson rounded the group, holding the rope over his shoulder.

"Jack, be careful."

He smirked, sending his girlfriend a reassuring look. "Don't worry, M'Lady." He took a second look at the wall, David handing him the axe. They decided, since he was more fitter, that it'd be better for him to climb over. "All the hard work, building my physique and now it's finally paying off." Jackson felt everyone's eyes on him, feeling slightly embarrassed at what they just heard.

"Babe?"

"Yes, darling?"

"Just focus on the wall." Jackson nodded, not saying another word as he walked toward the wall.

Once he stood opposite it, Emma felt someone take her hand, slowly, squeezing it as they waited. She looked down to her sister, noticing the worried look she held.

Jackson took a breath in, raising his arm backward. He hit the axe against the ice, the magic from it pushing him back. Emma, Brooklyn and Mary Margaret ran forward. The younger girl saw how a few icicles were about to drop over them, taking no time. She raised her arms, her own magic stopping the ice from falling.

Regina watched the girl, her eyebrows raised. She didn't know how, but since finding her sister, the girls magic had slowly come back to her own control again. She didn't know whether she liked it this way or not, but seeing herself stop the icicles, made her feel more confident in herself.

Brooklyn melted them away in almost an instant, David and Emma helping the man up. "So much for your brute force."

Brooklyn felt something crack beneath her, quick to step back as Elsa joined her side. They watched as the ice broke, the blonde noticing something inside the ice.

"Elsa?" Brooklyn asked, watching as she reached to grab what it was. "What are you doing? Hey, that thing could go off again." Brooklyn pulled her friend back, looking at the necklace she now held.
