In the morning, Emma watched in glee as the past versions of her parents seemed to be getting along. She was sure that their love story was now definitely back on track.

But Killian was much too concerned about their new problem. The woman Emma saved from the Queen. "So what are we going to do with our new friend?" he asked.

"I had to save her," Emma said.

"No. What you had to do was listen to me. She is supposed to be dead. Her even being here right now could have devastating consequences" Katherine said as they all stared at the woman sitting across from them.

"She's just a sweet, innocent woman," Emma said.

"Yes, I'm sure she made a point to be extra kind to the woman that could save her from being executed. For all we know she could be a complete crazy person. Or have a child that grows up to mass murder. Or gets drunk and rides a horse into one of the dwarves and now there's only six. Or-"

"Okay. I get it" Emma said, cutting Katherine off.

"Emma. She doesn't belong here" Katherine said.

"I know exactly what we can do," Emma said. "Take her with us."

Katherine scoffed as Emma walked over to the woman, probably to break the news to her. "She's going to get us killed" Katherine huffed. "Probably" Killian sighed, pulling Katherine with him over to Emma and the woman.

"The future?" the woman asked as Emma tried explaining the situation to her.

"You can't stay here. You were supposed to die hours ago" Emma said.

"I don't understand. I just want to get back to my family" the woman said.

"And I'm sure you'll be dearly missed but as far your family is concerned, you're dead," Katherine told her.

"Trust us," Emma said.

"All due respect, but I don't trust you. Or believe you. So unless you're kidnapping me, I'm going to find my family-"

Katherine barely had time to catch the woman as she fell into her arms. "Then I guess we're kidnapping you," Emma said, dropping the rock she used to hit the woman over the head.

"You're insane," Katherine said, lying the woman on the ground.

"What happened to her?" Charming asked as he walked over.

"She's sleeping," Katherine told him. "What's up?" Emma asked.

"Uh, have any of you seen Snow? She went to the stream but she hasn't..." Charming began patting himself down, a shocked look on his face. "The ring! She took it!"

"Really?" Emma asked, and judging by the look on her face this was a good thing. "Do you know where she might be headed?"

"She was seeking passage on a pirate ship. There's only one way to get to the harbor from here. The troll bridge" Charming said, before running into the woods.
