I open my eyes with a groan. The back of my head is pounding but when I check for blood there is none. I sit up slowly and look around frantically for the trigger. I see it, on the ground, split in half. To my surprise, it's not glowing anymore. I let out an incredulous laugh. I can't believe that worked.
The others slowly come to and we all look at each other with delirious smiles, just thankful to be alive.
"We're alive." Snow breathes out in relief before running over to her daughter. I walk over to Regina who's staring at the trigger in disbelief. She looks up and I tearfully laugh at her shock. I hold a hand out to her and she takes it gratefully.
"You did it!" Emma exclaims through a laugh and I turn to face her.
"We did it." I respond, gesturing towards Regina.
"Yes, we did." She says and holds up the trigger triumphantly.
"Got to hand it to Henry. He's right about a lot of things." David says with a laugh.
"Yes, he is. Isn't that right, kid?" Emma asks and goes to face him but he's not there. The smile drops from my face as I look around. There's no sign of him anywhere. "Henry?" Emma calls out.
"Henry?" Regina calls out, alarmed.
"He was just here." I mutter. We all take off down the mine, calling out to Henry to no avail. Emma stops, kneeling down in front of a bag.
"What is it?" I ask when she turns to us, concern written across her face.
"They took him." She breathes out and with that, we take off in a sprint.
We head to the most logical place we can think of to find Greg and Tamara. The docks. If they were smart, they would've left by now. But apparently they thought to take the time to kidnap a child so they can't be that smart, luckily for us. We finally reach the docks and all slow down a little to look for Henry properly. I feel worry start to form in my gut when there's no sign of him. Greg and Tamara are ruthless, willing to kill an entire town. Who knows what they would do with Henry.
