Emma's POV:

I walked along the road stepping over the cracks in the sidewalk. I felt eerie about going to two strange old people's house, I shrugged the feeling off though and walked up their driveway.

I smiled to myself, reassuringly, knocking on their front door. At first nothing happend. Then the door creaked open slowly and Sally stood there smiling widely.
"Come in child." She told me gesturing for me to come inside.
I nodded a thanks and walked in. She slammed the door behind me making me jump.

"Sorry dear my hand slipped."she muttered and I nodded. I noticed a picture of a little boy and girl both were smiling, and oddly enough they looked familiar to me.
" who are these kids?" I asked and Sally smiled.

"That's my brother and I when we were young." She told me with a smile. I grinned at the photograph.
"Wow you guys were really young." I murmured with a smile and she nodded somewhat stiffly.

"Yes indeed we were." She muttered then gestured towards a closed door.
"I need you to move some boxes downstairs." She told me softly "I've got a bad hip so it nearly impossible for me to move those heavy boxes." She told me and I couldn't help but get the feeling she was lying, but I again went against my instincts.

"Okay, well lead the way." I told her and she nodded opening the door.
"Alright its just down those stairs." She told me with a weird smile.

I nodded slowly almost awkwardly as I turned towards the looming stairs. I took a deep breath before finally I started down the stairs and what unnerved me was that there was no boxes just a big iron cage.

Before I could ask questions someone pushed me into the cage and I fell to my knees. When I looked up Sally slammed the door shut.

She then placed a magic free bracelet on my wrist.
"What the hell!!" I hissed bitterly and she smirked villainously.
"Drink this!" She commanded handing me a drink. I frowned completely confused.
"No thanks, I'm not thirsty." I told her bitterly and she just smirked.

"You want answers then drink, you want to remain in the dark then be my guest." She told me and I slowly, somewhat hesitantly took the vial from her.
"How do I know this won't kill me?" I asked her and she just grinned.
"I guess you'll just have to have hope." She told me in a mocking tone and I scowled.

"This better not kill me!" I grumbled throwing my head back and downing the drink. Instantly flashes of memories flooded my mind.

My family going to the future, meeting Sally and Daxton , them holding me at gun point, them almost killing me,Zelena getting out, me scaring them, resetting the memory core. I gasphed my brain felt like it was going to burst. I remembered everything, and I was furious. I socked the old lady Sally right in the face making her stumble backwards. She gasphed clutching her jaw bitterly. Then I grew even more furious when she smiled.

"You vindictive little-"
"Now now Savior we wouldn't want you to burn up all of your energy." She laughed , turning on her heels as she walked up the stairs. I frowned grabbing the bars and I shaked them furiously before I fell back against the bars feeling so defeated.

I prayed my family would come for me,but then again who would suspect two fragile old people. They were the most unlikely of suspects right next to two five year olds.
