Saving The Saviour || OUAT || CS - complete

Chapter 25

Emma's POV

"Rumplestiltskin!" I called a second time, barely managing the word.

"Hello there dearie!" I heard his voice, like he was breathing down my neck. But he wasn't here.

Suddenly, my body jumped when I felt his bony fingers on my shoulder. "Now now, Emma, is that any way to greet someone who's going to take away your pain?" He laughed, walking round to sit in front of me on one of the crates.

"How do you know what I want?" It felt like my tonsils were rubbing together, the only thing I'd drunk in these last months was salt water.

"Your voice is a bit rough, isn't it?" He laughed.

"Cut the crap. Tell me what I want to know. How did you know what I want?" I questioned, trying my hardest to be angry.

"Oh I know everything, dearie. Now my turn!" He giggled, like we were teenagers playing a game of 21 questions. "What are you willing to pay to take away your pain?"

"Anything." I stated bluntly.

"Oh, I love when they say that! Now, my price is" he took a long drawn out pause, leaving me to wonder what he would want - something that would be most valuable.

"Your dress."

Huh?

"Why do you want my dress? It's tattered and destroyed." I looked down at the mess of fabric that barely covered me.

"Well that's my business now, isn't it?"

I thought about it. If I give him my dress, what would I wear? I refuse to sit in this brig naked. I could always demand some more clothes?

And, besides, what harm could he do to anyone with a torn up dress?

"Deal." He giggled, getting excited. "But you have to give me something to wear. I'm not sitting here naked forever."

"Of course dearie, I'm not a cruel man!" He laughed before waving his hand. I felt myself become surrounded by his magic, my body started tingling.

Before I knew it, my legs were warm and clothed, my arms were covered in leather sleeves. My torso was being suffocated by a corset.

I gave myself a one over, quickly coming to the realisation of what I was wearing.

"You've dressed me like a pirate?"

This man will forever confuse me.

I didn't realise until now that my chains were off, they now laid around my feet.

"Now dearie, before I give you this-" he paused before making a small bottle of blue liquid appear in his hand. "There's something you should know."

"You're not trying to poison me, are you?" I felt strength returning to my body, little by little.

"Of course not. I have no reason for wanting you dead. What I'm trying to tell you is, you're the saviour."

"Don't you think I know that?" I questioned.

"And it's the saviour's duty to help everyone and defeat the bad guy. So if you're here, then who's saving the saviour?" He was serious. I'd never seen him so serious.

"Saviours aren't meant to run away from their pain. The laws of the world might not like it. Be prepared for a journey." He laughed, before throwing the bottle in the air.

I quickly leant to catch it and as soon and it was in my palm, he vanished.

I starred at it for a moment. Am I willing to forget Killian? Just so I'm in less pain?

Is losing every ounce of emotion towards my love worth it? All I want to do is get through the rest of my stay aboard this damn ship without loosing my mind. And if this potion will do that, then I can.

I had only just noticed that there was no longer a throbbing pain in my wrist. He healed me. Why?

I don't even care any more.

I popped the cork off before drinking the entire contents of the bottle.

My throat burned as I swallowed it. My body became warm, almost too hot. My veins itched and my hands tingled.

Suddenly, my head pounded. The room span around me and I became dizzy. The last thing I saw before it all went dark was the smiling face of Killian Jones.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This chapter is a bit short because I'm just so emotional right now.
First, let's talk about the musical episode! It was amazing, everyone sounded so good!
THE WEDDING
I'm not nor will I ever be over the wedding! It was perfect! Too perfect for words! I loved it!
And now, we find out that Jen is leaving! I'm not happy about it but she needs to do what's best for her and I'll forever support her. As much as Hook is my favourite character and Colin is my favourite actor, I hope he doesn't come back for next season because I don't think I can handle seeing him alone after just getting their happy ending!
Let me know your thoughts on the episode!
Much love xxx
