I'm With You 4
A/N: First, I must apologize for this chapter coming so much later and throwing off my whole schedule. Sunday was clearly not a day to write as it was an OUaT day, but the episode left much to be desired and killed my muse. Then, Tumblr happened last night and I felt like a new person!
I didn’t explain this last time, but the italic is a sort of flashback. Reviews will be much appreciated! Updates should be back to their normal schedule enjoy

“You are done here Chaos. Move on to another; I have made the deal I seek.”
“Foolish man! I do not heed your words; I will stay.”
“If you stay any longer you will destroy this world!!”
“Indeed! I will create the ultimate chaos and destruction by destroying your lands” there was a rumbling of the world around him as the larger than life voice chuckled “loosing your world will cause all others to go into complete disarray.”
“NO! We had a deal!”
“And I upheld my end!”
“You’re going to ruin everything!!!” the small impish man bellowed, his usual sinister grin nowhere on his face as his lips stayed firmly set in a hard line.
Another small chuckled rumbled around him “And that is what chaos has always done! What I will continue to do.” There was a rumble of earth as the black shadows began to come together and a beautiful dark skinned woman stepped out from them a victorious smile flashing white razor like teeth as her face began to morph into sharp lines. “This world will burn and all because of a simpleton like you, you should be elated Rumple, or shall I address you as Dark One?” a hard bark of laughter left thinning lips as deep brown eyes slowly swirled to a deep fiery red.
Enraged the golden skinned man bares his yellowed teeth eyes flashing dangerously as he seethes at being manipulated. His body begins to throb and tingle with the flush of his rising anger as it builds within his body. A large swirling ball of purple crackles to life within his hand and it hurls at the vile woman smacking into the woman’s abdomen earning him a snicker as he bends forward as a sudden flash of pain jolts through his body unexpectedly. “Wha..?”
A satisfied smirk turns up the woman’s lips. “Your magic has no affect on my; it runs through me.”

The fabric of time and space will be destroyed.
It never occurred to the blonde how much having Regina on her side would truly set her mind at ease; a large part of her just relaxed as soon as she heard the woman would be on her side, it made her feel invincible, like a piece was settling comfortably into its place. And her feeling of reassurance was validated once Regina set her shoulders ready to take the whole thing head on.
“We don’t have much time for much planning: Chaos waits for no one.” Regina states firmly as she swiftly turns on her heel entering her home Emma hot on her heels.
“Guess it wouldn’t be chaos if it waited for a nice schedule” It was the wrong thing to say and Emma realized it immediately as the regal woman whirled around on her eyes dark with anger and lips set in a hard line.
“This is not a joke Ms. Swan and it is most certainly not something to be taken lightly.” Regina seethed staring angrily at the woman before her with dark, unforgiving eyes.
“I’m not taking it lightly.”
But the brunette continued on as if the blonde had not spoken a single word. “This is about Henry and if all I can count on from you is childish immaturity then I would rather take my chances in taking Henry and myself away from this godforsaken town.”
“He would never go willingly anywhere with you, Regina, and you know it.” The blonde stepped towards the other woman her own anger getting the better of her as she continued through gritted teeth. “And if you did succeed in taking him away, only for this town to be destroyed, I’d imagine that as much as you believe he hates you now would only increase about a hundred times.”
The words caused the brunette to flinch as a heavy ache settled in her heart and for a brief moment her face clouded over with agony.
“Shit” Emma cursed herself for letting things get out of hand. “Regina, I’m sorry”
“Don’t apologize.” She tried to make it come out as bitingly as usual, but there was a distinct crack in her voice as the words slipped out. She clears her throat. “I’m quite sure that you’re correct.” Although, it comes out with its usual sharpness there is a decidedly very real painting of sadness coating every word.
The blonde just sighs lightly feeling like an ass for even saying something like that to the still obviously fractured woman. She bites her lip lightly as she holds up her hands in what she hopes is a placating gesture as she speaks softly. “Hey, look I am sorry about what I said I didn’t mean to be an ass or take things lightly I’m just nervous. This is a lot to take in for me, but I’m here and I’m not taking things lightly.” The words have dark brown orbs meeting green as they stare for a moment. A single nod is all Emma needs before her shoulders are slumping in relief and she flashes a grateful smile at the woman before her. “Good, because there is no way I can do this by myself.”
Unlike her last attempt at making light of the situation, this one actually works and the tension seems to dissipate from the air around them. A small smirk tilts blood red lips. “Of that I am positive, Ms. Swan.”
For a moment the blonde lets herself believe that everything is once again normal again and it is just the usual banter between a hostile mayor and her bullheaded sheriff, but the gravity of the situation only allows for a small moment before once again she lets her strange reality to set in. “Okay, so what’s first?” Green eyes are hard with determination that brown easily match.
“Well first thing would be to determine what our plan of action should be, but knowing how chaos is unpredictable and ever changing there is only so much we can gain from forming an intricate plan.”
“So, nothing too detailed. Just run jump hide?” the blonde answers thoughtfully her eyes focused somewhere distant as her mind files through different plans.
“Something like that, yes.” The voice brings Emma out of her musing and once again brown find green. “I need to know who is going to help; who have you told?”
The blonde just looks at the brunette for a silent beat. “Umm…just you”
Two dark brows raise in slight surprise her voice holding incredulity “You’ve only told me?”
“Well, yea. Gold…Rumple…whatever…told me that you were who I needed to help me.” She shrugs as if it were the simplest thing.
“And you put blind faith in that man?”
“You’re one of the strongest people I know and you will do everything you can to protect Henry.”
“Okay then.” It is breathed out as once again the brunette is turning and walking further into her home the blonde following behind as they enter a familiar study and Regina is searching through a stack of old looking books.
“Regina” the name is said tentatively as the blonde shuffles lightly instantly brown eyes flash up taking in the fidgeting blonde. “Look I just wanted to say…you know about everything.”
Brown eyes harden before looking back to the task at hand voice coming out with a hard edge the brook no argument. “There is no time for your attempt at an apology Ms. Swan.” The blonde nods staying silent as the brunette shuffles through a few pages before settling on a single book.
“Let’s go” and before Emma can even answer the two are engulfed in a large cloud of purple.
