"Where is it?" Shouts Emma from afar running towards the clock tower.
"I don't know! It just went off and we can't find it." Informs Snow.
"Hey! What's going on?" Struts Regina.
"The darkness. It's-" David starts but Emma interrupts.
"-Here. It hasn't gone anywhere. It's around us." Suddenly, they all become aware of they surrounding. David paces over to Regina ready to protect her. Killian wraps his arms around Emma waiting to pull her out of danger. Snow and Robin stand ready to fight. Everyone waits. Regina turns around and glares at the dark sky, awaiting to danger to strike, when something grabs her and surrounds her constantly spinning, taking her breath away. Within seconds Emma immediately runs toward the darkness that's trapped Regina. "What's it doing?" Shouts David.
"It's sucking out the light." Mummers Emma.
"I won't let it." David charges for the dark cage but it blows him straight back and he rolls back towards Emma.
"That's not going to work."
"What do we do then?" Worries Snow.
"It has to be tethered to another soul. It's the only way." Emma's first instinct is to run and take the darkness.
"Emma no!" Chokes Regina. "There has to be another way!"
"There isn't."
"Emma! NO!" Yells Snow.
"You figured out how to take the darkness out of me once, you can do it again." She says looking from Snow to David.
"Emma please don't so this." Begs Killian.
"I love y-"
"NOOOO!" Cries Regina.
"DAD!" Charming snatched the dagger from Emma and throws his arm up as the darkness slowly starts to release Regina and surround David. Everyone gasps as Killian snatches Emma to stop her from jumping to save her father.
"What are you doing? Your crazy!" Cries Regina.
"I love you!" Gasps David.
"I love you too." Robin runs to Regina to pull her away as the force of the darkness grows as it sucks the light out of David. Regina struggles to get away from Robin but his grip is too strong. Looking through the gaps of the darkness, David and Regina lock gazes. A crash in they sky followed by a flash of light and David is gone. The dagger drops and everything is silent. Robin releases Regina but she doesn't move. She's frozen. Paralysed.
Killian walks over to the dagger and picked it up as he read aloud "'David Nolan.'" Regina tries to take a deep breath but chokes as the words hit her. "DARK ONE... I COMAND THEE... APPEAR!" Demands Killian. Nothing. "DARK ONE... APPEAR!" Nothing. "I don't get it. I thought you could summon the dark one with the dagger from anywhere in the realm?"
"Doesn't that answer you question, guyliner? He's not in this realm. So where is her?" Snaps Regina.
