No Sound Without Silence

AU Post 4x12 "Heroes and Villains"

Rumpelstiltskin wanted more for his dear Captain. Death was too easy. He wanted him to feel it all, to suffer like he did once. What better way than to use the town line curse to his advantage? He did.

Killian crossed the town line. He became alone in the wilderness of high-rise buildings and cars. Yet he wasn't going to let the Crocodile win. He had no choice but to live his life without the woman he loves in....

Weeks after the Snow Queen was defeated, the town was still recovering yet at a fast pace. Nonetheless, Emma realized that someone was missing. She's scared and afraid and angry. Angry at Gold, at the world, at herself. However, she wasn't giving up. She could feel it in her bones that he was out there somewhere and she's determined to find him. And her first stop was....

New York City.
