"Rosie?" Shy shouts, as we look for Rosie. Charlotte climbs a tree and looks around. "She's not here!" She yells. I shiver. Where has she gone? Shy uses her scents to try and track her.

Emma will never forgive me. Regina might even kill me. "Rosie! Come back!" Charlotte yells.

I can hear voices. Charlotte's voice. They think I'm dead. I don't know, I think I'm just knocked out. I try to tell them but I can't. I can't move. I feel myself being lifted into an ambulance. "He's breathing!" A man says. I feel a hand on my head. "It's gonna be okay Henry!" Mum. Emma. Regina must be here too. I can hear Rosie crying. I want to tell her it's okay, but I can't. No matter how hard I try I can't...
