Season 4: Episode 7: The Snow Queen

(Azalea's Outfit^^^)

-flower shop/Azalea's Pov-

I heard the bell to my flower shop door ring, meaning someone had walked into the front of the store. I put the seeds down that I had been experimenting with and walked out of my office to see none other than Robin Hood looking around. "Looking for some flowers to get Marian when she awakes?" I asked. He looked up at me and gave a friendly smile, one that didn't seem to convincing. "I was wondering if you knew when the cure for Marian would be complete? I know this magic stuff can be a bit tricky, but my son keeps asking..." I nodded. "Well the main ingredient in Marian's cure is a 'fire flower' specifically it's pollen. But those don't grow in this world. So I have to try to re-create it using magic. So honestly I'm not sure, but now that there is a cure we know for certain Marian is going to be alright, we just don't know when. I know that I can recreate the effects of the fire flower. I just have to find out how." Robin nodded, folding his hands together and looking down at them. "Not today, but it won't be soon! Tell your son if he ever wants to come by and watch me work, maybe even help, he is always welcome in my shop...if you think that would help him with all this." I offered. Robin smiled, "Your too kind Azalea, but I may take you up on that offer...thank you so much again for everything." He said before saying goodbye and leaving the shop. I sighed, it was obvious that he was dealing with a lot. His love that was so obvious that he still had for Regina, but also the family that he thought he had lost could be one again. How could a man choose between those two things? I turned around and went back to my office to continue my work on the flowers. No matter the outcome, I knew that saving Marian was the right thing to do.

-Sheriff's Office-

"Belle found this spell - she said that it may be able to work against the Snow Queen." Emma said sitting a book down in front of Elsa. Open to a page with writing that wasn't English. "You don't mean to kill her right?" Elsa asked. "No, no one is killing anyone. It's just to neutralize her powers - maybe." Emma elaborated as the doors opened and Azalea came running through, "Sorry I'm late. What did I miss?" She asked sitting next to Elsa. Both women took in the teenager, her school uniform still on. "Did you just come from school? It's five, school ends at three." Emma said. "Oh no, I had to run by the shop to check on the flowers that are currently growing, see if the fire flowers were doing well, and then I ran over here. I haven't had a chance to change just yet." She said. "Well you wont be catching much of a break here, Belle found this spell. Can you read it? It's the same language from before." Elsa asked handing the teen the book Emma had just given her. "Yes, let me see." Azalea said adjusting the flowers woven in her braid. "With both hands hold the candle -" Emma picked up a candle that Belle had also given her. "And light it with your magic. And then when you blow on it - " Azalea read. "Bam! The Ice Queenis back to selling ice-cream." Emma said, connecting the dots. "Maybe without her powers we can talk to her. We can find Anna, and get some real answers." Elsa said. "By the way, does your sister have any magic?" Emma asked. "No, my mother and I would have sensed it while we stayed with the royal family all those years ago." Azalea said looking through the book. "And I think that is why the Snow Queen is so interested in you." Elsa said standing up and holding the candle in her hands. "Does anyone in your family have magic?" Elsa asked Emma. "Azalea does, but biologically no." Emma said. "It's hard when they look at you differently isn't it?" Elsa asked. Emma shrugged. "They don't." Elsa nodded, "Your lucky...okay so should we try this?" Elsa asked holding the candle out to Emma. "Wait now?" Azalea asked as Emma took the candle. "Yea now," Emma said. Azalea stood up. "I'm not sure if that is wise. I would like to do some more research before you use magic on a candle Belle gave you along with this spell...I trust Belle, but you can never be to careful with magic." Azalea said. "Well I never really was the careful type." Emma said before focusing on the candle and lighting it with her magic. Everyone watched as the tiny flame danced on top of the candle. Emma blew to put the fire out, but instead it grew and stretched forward as Emma blew into the fire. Elsa held her hands out, but the ice magic she held in them put the flame out instantly. Both women sighed and Azalea folded her arms. "Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me?" She asked. "I'm sorry, shall we try again later after Azalea looks into it deeper?" Elsa asked Emma. "Sounds good, but your taking it with us." Emma said handing Azalea and book and candle. "We need to get home. I'm babysitting tonight for Mary Margret. And your not skipping out on your homework again - you can't keep using Marian and the towns predicaments as excuses." Emma said taking the teen by her shoulder. "It's okay, go on. I'll be here later." Elsa said looking at some papers on the desk. "Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Azalea asked. "I'm sure, I might come by later." Elsa said as the two said goodbye and left.
