Chapter Text
It was yet another battle, this time with a genie named Jafar. Couldn’t the heroes of Storybrooke ever catch a break? Emma and Hook were on one side, Regina on another, Snow and Charming on yet another side, and Zelena across from them. They were all trying to tire and confuse the genie, but so far they were only tiring themselves.
“You will never take me down!” the genie roared, waving his serpent-head staff and blasting magic around.
Emma dived out of the way of a blast. “You know, I’m kind of liking the animated version of you better,” she quipped. She rolled when another blast was aimed at her.
“Hey!” Snow shouted, shooting an arrow off at their enemy. “You leave my daughter alone!” She watched out of the corner of her eye as Hook helped Emma to her feet.
“Well, I wonder what she would do to protect Mommy dearest,” the genie sneered, aiming his magic at Snow. Charming charged forward and pushed her out of the way, but that was all that was needed for Emma, Regina, and Zelena to combine their magics in a blast. A scream of anguish came from the genie as the magics swirled and tried to destroy him, but he got one last blast off towards Snow.
“Mom!” Emma screamed at the same time Charming screamed for Snow. Regina and Zelena were too shocked to move as a portal appeared and engulfed the pixie haired brunette. Before anyone else could react the portal closed and the genie was gone as well, a pile of ash next to the staff. “Where did she go?” Emma asked as they all neared the spot where Snow disappeared.
“That is a very good question love,” Hook said, placing his hand carefully on the small of her back.
“Obviously that was a portal,” Zelena piped up.
“But to where?” Regina asked, looking to her sister.
“It doesn’t matter, we need to get my wife back,” Charming said, a determined look in his eyes.
