THEY COULD HEAR the wind whistling around them, as they climbed the beanstalk. 

"First Beanstalk?" Killian asked the blonde, who was panting. "Well, you never forget your first."

From up ahead, they could her Majo yelling, "I think I forgot our first!" and her chuckling.

Emma raised her eyebrows Killian who just shook his head in amusement.

Majo was faster than her Captain, who first-of-all had a hook as his right hand and was waiting up for their third.

"Why can't you two make peace?" Killian asked Majo.

"You're asking me as if it's my fault." the warlock told her Captain.

Killian opened his mouth but Majo walked forwards and entered the pub in front of them. A few minutes later, Killian entered with Milah at his side. A few crewmen entered after them and they gathered at a table in the back.

The man drank and the women talked and laughed with them. "Why aren't you drinking?" Majo asked.

"Why aren't you?"

Milah looked at Killian, "I have the feeling that someone will have to get the drunk men back to the ship."

Majo nodded, "True. And I don't drink because, well If I have too much, bad things happen." seeing Milah's questioning gaze, she added, "It's a family thing." The warlock told her about her and her brother's drunk adventures.

Milah laughed, "You have quite an interesting family."

The warlock nodded chuckling and then furrowed her brows, "Why don't you like me?" The woman was about to answer but Milah held up her hand, "Hold that thought, I saw something interesting." She stood up and walked away.

Milah followed her with her eyes and saw Majo approach a beautiful red-headed woman. The two talked for a moment and then disappeared through a door. "What are they doing?" she asked Killian. The Captain turned to the woman he loved and then towards the door Majo had disappeared through.

"Ah, yes. Majo has a talent for finding people she finds attractive." Milah raised her eyebrows and looked at the door the warlock had disappeared through.

Majo arrived on top first, stepping onto the grey stone that surrounded the beanstalk. As she arrived, the glamoured her eyes again, seeing as she didn't trust Snow Whites daughter yet. 

As Killian arrived with said blonde, they were both panting, while Majo was playing around with the necklace she was wearing.

"What happened here?" the blond said, seeing all the ruble and the skeletons lying around. 

"It's where the final battle was." Killian explained. "Give her your hand." he added and motioned to Majo, who was inspecting a skeleton.

"What?" the blonde asked.

"Your hand-it's cut. Let her help you." 

"No. No. It's fine"

"No, it's not." the Captain insisted.

Majo stepped forward and took the blonde's hand. Before the latter could say anything, the warlock hovered her hand over hers. White light emitted from Majo's hand and collected itself on the blondes wound, sealing it shut.

"Thank you"

Majo waved her hand-that had stopped glowing-"Don't bother. Giants smell blood and it was a Captain's order, kinda." she went to go to the entrance of the giant building but then turned around again. "On second thought, you could tell me your name."
