Killian's POV
I woke up on the cold hard ground. I wasn't in my car, and I certainly wasn't in my room. I raised my left hand to run across my stubble. What the hell! My hand is gone! I sighed as I looked at myself. I am bruised and bloodied, but what I really want to know is where the bloody hell I am. There are no windows, and it looks like I'm underground. The last thing I remember is driving home, and there being a wolf in the road. I am looking for an exit. A door! It's about a hundred yards away. I started limping toward the door. Damn, I think I crashed my car. Aw, my poor Jolly. Now's not the time to grieve over your bloody car Jones. I made it, only to find a bloody Rottweiler guarding it,

"Down boy," I whispered. It growled and started barking,

"Shhh," I tried to silence it but the damn dog only got louder.

"Down Cerberus, this is no way to treat our guest," I turned around to see a man who looked about as old as Mr. Gold speaking. I had a much bigger build than him, but I could tell he was not to be messed with. Being the cocky sonofabitch I am, I couldn't hold my tongue,

"Guest?" I spat out like venom,"You call the victims you kidnap guests?" He laughed,

"You are quite the character Jones," I rolled my eyes,

"Who are you anyway?" I asked,

"The name's Hades," what the fuck?

"Like the god?" He softly laughed,

"My parents were really into mythology,"

"What do you want from me?"

"Some information," really? The fucker kidnapped me for a piece of bloody information,

"And then you'll let me go?" He chuckled again,

"Oh no, then I'll kill you,"

"Then what makes you think I'll give it to you if I die either way," he got into my personal space but I refused to back away,

"If you don't tell me what I want, I'll get your precious Swan too," I clenched my jaw,

"What do you want to know?"

Emma's POV
Today was...Killian's...funeral. I spent the whole night crying my soul out while trying to convince myself he wasn't dead. The stabbing feeling just let me know that I know he was in pain, but I think I would've actually had trouble functioning if he was dead. When you love someone, you just know. I dressed in all black, and put my hair in a ponytail. No makeup. I'm never dressing up or putting on makeup again. I have nobody to want to look good for anymore. Of course Graham was appointed new Captain, but he kindly declined. He said that he didn't deserve it. They all decided that Robin should be the new Captain. I shakily clutched the railing as I hobbled down the stairs. I was greeted by my parents dressed in black,

"Morning Emma," Dad said. I'm glad he left the good out of it. My mom took my hand and I fought back the tears. We drove to the cemetery to find everybody already there. A man named Dr. Hopper went to the front with a microphone,

"We are gathered here today, in remembrance of Killian Jones," my body wracked at that. Brennan went up,

"My son was better than I could've ever been. I loved him so much, and now my little boy's gone. I'll remember the night when he took Emma on they're first date," I smiled at that,"when he came home, he was the happiest I've ever seen him. He looked like some kind of lovesick puppy. He was practically swaying into the house," I laughed as tears made their way onto the ground, "I just want you to know Emma, that you are the best thing that has ever happened to Killian, and that I consider you a part of my family," he stepped down from the small stage and hugged me. I hugged him back and sobbed a little into his chest. I pulled away just as Robin, Jeff, Vic, and Will stepped up. Robin started,
