━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━  

THE SOUND OF RUSHING FOOTSTEPS echoed through the halls as Regina and Aphrodite burst through the hospital doors. The tension in the air is palpable—Henry's life hung in the balance, and the panic in Regina's eyes is clear. 

"Where's my son?" Regina burst into the room.

Emma's face paled with anger as she looked up as Regina entered, her eyes narrowing, "You did this."

Aphrodite's eyes widened in panic as she watched Emma grab a hold of Regina and drag her into the storage room. She followed after them, her eyes widening further when she saw Emma throw Regina up against a rack, slamming her on it.

"What the hell are you doing?" Regina screamed. "Stop this! My son-"

"Is sick because of you! That apple turnover you gave me? He ate it!"

"What?" Regina's face dropped. "It was meant for you!"

"It's true isn't it?"

"What are you talking about?" 

"It's true, isn't it?! All of it!"

Regina leant her head back again the wall as Aphrodite stepped inside the room, "It's true, Em. All of it."

"You knew? All along?" Emma turned to the blonde, who shook her head in response.

"No, I just uh- my curse was broken a couple hours ago," She admitted. "Mine was different to the one everyone else is under."

Emma nodded, out of everyone she knew that Aphrodite would tell her the truth. Plus, the confusion and overwhelming expression on the other blonde's face confirmed that she wasn't lying.

"What do we do?" Emma turned her attention back to Regina. "Don't you have magic?"

Regina shook her head, "That was the last of it! It was supposed to put you to sleep!" She exclaimed as she pushed Emma backwards.

"What's it gonna do to him?" Emma backed off, the worry etched in her face.

"I don't know. Magic here is unpredictable."

"So... so, he could..." The blonde voice shook as Aphrodite placed her hand on her shoulder.

"Yes."

"So, what do we do now?"

Regina wiped the tears off her face, "We need help. There's one other person in this town who knows about this. Knows about magic."

"Mr Gold." Emma said.

Aphrodite sighed, not liking where this was going, "Actually, he goes by Rumpelstiltskin."

The air in Storybrooke was thick with urgency as Emma, Regina and Aphrodite rushed through the hospital corridors. The fluorescent light cast a stark glow on the faces of those who lingered in the waiting area, but Aphrodite didn't pay attention. All she could think about was Henry, lying unconscious after ingesting one of Regina's poisoned apple turnovers.
