Characters: Emma Swan and Prince Charming
When: Thursday afternoon
Location: Touring Car
Warnings/Rating: None that I can think of, but I'll update if that changes
Summary: Emma is trying to help the new guy out. Little does he know is that he's meeting his daughter or how he was in another world with a different name. Emma's trying to play everything off and not let on how she's his daughter.
Status: closed and ongoing.




Emma couldn’t believe her father was on the train. Well, okay, she could considering the train brought people from all over, but she really hadn’t been expecting him to show up. The problem was that he had no idea who she was or anything about her. He didn’t know about Storybrooke and he had no idea about how Snow and him ended up with a daughter who grew up into the woman he was going to be meeting. Maybe it was a bad idea to offer to help him out, but she wanted to see the man who she knew now was her father. The man she thought didn’t love her and that was why they left her on the side of a road. All the stuff she believed to be true about her parents were far off as she found out, thanks to her son. She thought about sending him a message about something coming up because she wasn’t sure if she could do this. No, she could do this! She just had to keep telling herself that. The idea of sending a message to the huntsman crossed her mind as well, but she had to do this on her own. Did she want him to know who she was? That wasn’t a question she was ready to answer, but she did know she wanted to see him and maybe talk to him a bit without thinking he was just some guy in Storybrooke that went by the name David.

Before leaving her room, she kept debating about how she should change, but the question was what did a girl wear to meet her father for the first time since finding out he was her father? Screw it. She didn’t need to impress a man who had no idea who she was. Calm down, Emma she thought to herself as she ran her fingers through her blonde hair, sucking on her bottom lip as she made her way to the touring car. This had become one spot that she started taking up to drink her issues away or to clear her head only she had nothing to drink on her and she figured here was a good place to meet him. Emma made note to keep an eye on Regina because now she had to worry about the bitch trying anything to hurt her father. Emma found an empty touring car and moved into the room, sitting down on one side as she glanced out the window. On the outside, she looked calm and collected because she was a pro at hiding certain emotions. On the inside, she was a nervous wreck who kept overanalyzing that situation as she tried to figure out how to go about this whole thing. Maybe she could still bail before he showed up. No, she had to stay and do this even if it was going to be hard to keep from slipping up with the names she knew. David was the main one she was concerned with because she never knew him as dad so that wasn’t a big issue. Biting her thumb nail, she glanced over to the door when she heard it opening, hoping it was him and not some stranger.

To say he was confused by this 'train' would be an understatement. He was, in fact, terrified by the situation he'd found himself in, even though he was doing a better-than-average job of hiding it. The movement, the strange metal walls, the workmanship that nobody in his time could achieve...it all created a very foreign and possibly hostile environment around him which he did not understand.

Fear, however, was not the same as cowardice, and he summoned his courage and made his way down the hallway, proud of himself for never losing his balance completely (although he found himself thrown into the wall several times by the heaving of the train).

But he had to meet this young lady, he had to understand what was happening here, how he could get back home where he belonged; how he could get back to Snow. That was where he belonged, and he needed her. His heart, which had been broken by grief with her (false) confession, had again found hope and he wanted nothing more than to see her face again. To hold her, to kiss her, to tell her the words that swelled in his heart, to give her the ring that his mother had rightly promised him would lead him to his true love...

Finally finding the right car, he found it empty except for one, and smiled at her, approaching her and bowing properly to her.

"Lady Emma," he said with a smile, taking her hand and kissing it.

This was the hardest thing Emma could remember ever doing. The fact she was meeting with the man who was her father and she couldn’t even tell him was the hardest thing. Or the fact that she had to figure out how she could explain this whole situation to him. She was going with the story that she knew Snow, but he had no idea how and she couldn’t lie about being in a world that she didn’t even remember. Fairy tale world may have been where she was born, but she was raised in a whole different world where happy endings didn’t exist.

The sight of James caused a small smile to show up on her face as she kept telling herself that his name was James and not David. Before she could say anything, he was talking and she couldn’t help herself as she raised an eyebrow at what he called her or the way he took her hand to kiss it. Seriously? No, she had to stop that one because it was too weird for her. “Yeah, first off it’s just Emma. No, lady Emma or anything like that,” she said, pulling her hand out of his as she moved to sit back down. “You don’t need to kiss the hand of everyone you meet or at least not mine.” For Emma, she found it to be weird but maybe that was just her. “Okay, have a seat and ask me whatever you want,” she figured answer his questions the best she could then explain to him what she did know if he didn’t ask questions that involved that information.

He reddened a little at her rebuke - he had only been trying to be polite, to be a gentleman in the way he knew best.

"I meant no offense," he said with a slight bow, before sitting and looking at her for a moment. Her clothing was very strange to him - not just the fact that she was dressed like a man (Snow had done that often enough that it had ceased to be that strange), but the fact that the fabrics and the styles were very odd indeed. And...there was something about her he couldn't place. Something that looked...familiar. In her bearing, in her posture...in her eyes, there was something he knew, but could not place.

His first question, therefore, came as he cocked his head slightly.

"Have we met before?"

Emma found the whole thing to be weird considering the men she had been around weren’t the kind that people would call gentleman. She was so used to things one way for most of her life that all this new stuff was causing so much stress on her. “No, I know, but yeah, just weird for me is all. No offense is taken,” she told him with a small smile, fighting the urge to roll her eyes. Emma had to remember this wasn’t David. No, this was Prince Charming so he was going to be a whole lot different, but she was still used to the other man that she had learned about while in Storybrooke.

The outfit he had on was strange to her, but once again different world that he was coming from. She could only imagine what he was thinking about her clothes. Here she was in jeans and a top along with her leather jacket. Maybe she should have changed, but the thought was a little late now. His first question caught her off guard only she learned how to lie over the years. Normally she wasn’t the type to lie; however, she wasn’t quite sure if she was ready to admit to him who she was.

“No, I can’t say we have. Why do you ask?” Emma wasn’t exactly lying to him. Where he came from they had never met considering she wasn’t even born yet, “I just have one of those faces that people seem to think they see places.” Yeah, that worked, right?

"No...I could have sworn I'd seen you somewhere before. You look so familiar."

He looked at her a few moments longer, unable to put a finger on what it was. He shook his head with a soft smile.

"Forgive me, of course we have not met. You're from a different world, a different time. You probably have wonders I cannot even imagine. Like, for instance, this train?"

He sat for a moment, then stood, pacing. He himself was dressed in clothing that was, to him, quite normal, and his hand clutched the hilt of his sword as he paced. Not threateningly - no, never that, but just as a natural and habitual way of walking.

Finally, he stopped and looked back at her with an apologetic smile.

"I...I fear I am so lost, so confused, that I do not even know where to begin. How did you arrive here?"

Emma really didn’t think he would figure out that she was related to him, but it felt a little better to know that he thought she looked familiar. Only she really wasn’t sure whether she wanted him to figure it out or not. The thought of telling him the truth was out of the question because she would just sound insane. “I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure you’ve never met me before,” she told him with a small shrug. She never said that she hadn’t met him because she did; however, he never met her as of yet.

“Yes, where I come from we had trains and a bunch of other things that you probably never even heard of,” she said with a nod, glancing at his sword as he started pacing. Emma wasn’t worried about it more the fact it brought back where she last saw that weapon. She had been using it to slay the dragon with hopes of saving her son. Even though she couldn’t quite see it clearly the way he had it, she could see the handle and it looked like the one that Gold had her use as he said it was her fathers. The thought of asking to see it almost came out, but she figured now was not the time.

She knew that feeling as she had only been here a short amount of time and things were crazy to say the least. The fact she had Graham back around along with now her father who didn’t even know of her or about her. “I was back in my world when I was pulled here to the train. Everyone was pretty much doing their own thing in their world before finding themselves on this piece of crap,” she figured start off slow instead of throwing things at him. He would probably take it better than she did, but she didn’t think so then again she could be wrong.

"I do not doubt it," he said, smiling at her with a gentle smile. "I come from a world with little in the way of..." and he made a wide gesture with his hand, indicating the train. "...technology. I come from a world where magic trumps science, a world of trolls, dragons, fairies and witches; a world where love always triumphs in the end. Or, that is what I believe."

He sat, facing her, still staring at her face, trying to place what was so familiar in it, but it was so vague that he could not. She simply looked...familiar.

"It is why I must return, why I cannot stay here. There is a woman; my true love, the light and passion of my life, and I must be reunited with her. I must find her. She may be in danger and...and I have recently discovered the truth behind words she spoke to me that nearly broke my heart. I must find her, must tell her I love her; have always loved her, and that I know she loves me too and she did what she did only to save my life."

His eyes took on a softness when he spoke of Snow, a gentleness that could only come from the deepest love.

"I would face anything for her, but I cannot be what she needs while stuck on this train."

Emma knew about the dragon part and the magic considering what she had learned from how Regina was along with what she had to slay. The rest sounded weird to her, especially the love part because she knew the world outside fairytale world. Love wasn’t real and was just a way to mess with people’s head before the person ended up getting hurt. People loved screwing one another, but she didn’t believe people actually loved one another unless they were family. The few times she thought she was in love just ended badly causing her to stick with her belief on that whole matter for the time being; however, she knew she loved her son and that was because no matter what he was her boy.

“Yeah, I come from a world with trains, cell phones, cars, and things like that. But I’m happy to help you figure out the technology and things like that cause I’m sure it’s hard when not used to things like this,” she told him with a small smile. Even if he didn’t know who she was didn’t mean that she couldn’t find a way to hang out with him until she decided to tell him who she was and that was if she decided to do that.

It took everything in her not to say how Snow would be fine and nothing would happen to her. Well, okay, she didn’t know that for sure considering she had ignored what Henry said on the story and she was never big on the stories expect Alice in Wonderland. All she did know was that they ended up having her so she knew Snow would be fine. “I’m sure she knows and part of you is still going to find her,” she told him, leaning back in the seat as she sighed softly. “Pretty much a part of you is here, but you never leave your world. Trust me I know it makes no sense but it’s the truth. So while you’re here on this train, you’re also back in your world going to find Snow.” Her eyes scanned his face, waiting for a reaction to that comment. Emma would have never believed that if it wasn’t for the fact that Regina had been here while Emma was standing next to her at the hospital.

Emma had to admit it was a little sweet in a sickening kind of way to see the way he got about Snow. Though that just caused her to think about how the two were in Storybrooke and the craziness from that. Pushing that aside, she shook her head, “I’m sure you would do anything. The problem is you can’t get off this train since I tried,” while drinking her issues away but he didn’t need to know that, “and who knows the train might bring Snow along at some point.” Would that be a good thing? Emma wasn’t even sure if she could handle another family member on board who didn’t know her.

"That is...a great deal to take in," he said softly. It wasn't that he didn't believe her - he did. At least he believed that she believed she was telling the truth. And he had seen strangeness in his life, and magic that was beyond strange. But the idea that he could be here and back at home was a strange thing indeed. Still, he had no way to argue against it, so for the time being he would just accept it.

"Perhaps we should try again. After all, there must be some way to stop the train? Some way to earn our freedom? Everything has a weakness; the train must too, even if it is very difficult to find?"

He smiled at her when she offered her help, and nodded.

"I would be very grateful. I fear that these devices do a great deal more than I am capable of doing with them. Could you show me how to use them?"

“Yeah, tell me about it. I’ve only been here a few days and not the most settling thing to find out that’s for sure,” she told him. Emma was trying to take it slow and that was one of the bigger issues with the train that she had learned so she was still trying to figure out how to go about bringing up the other issues. Though it was hard when all she wanted to do was hug him. All she wanted more than anything was to find her parents and find out why they left her, but now that she had her father right in front of her, she had to pretend to be some stranger. Yes, it was for the best as of right now and that was what she had to keep telling herself.

Emma knew he had a point that everyone had a weakness and she usually tried to hide her weaknesses, but her most noticeable one now was her son. Before that she was able to hide them pretty well for the most part. “Yes, well, from what I heard the front part of the train is unable to be accessed and that people have used magic along with everything else. The train does stop from what I hear but it won’t be your home from what I hear,” she told him. When did she become the person with the bad news.

“Like I said I’m happy to help if I can,” she told him with a small smile, pushing a piece of her blonde hair behind her ear as she nodded. “Yeah, do you have the device with you? It isn’t as hard as you’re making it out to be, but it’s easier when you have a small idea what you’re doing.”

"I do," he said with a smile, quickly taking it out of his jacket and handing it to her. "It took me nearly two hours to figure out how to work it at first, even to just make that simple message. I am afraid...in my world, we have nothing like this. We use messengers, or doves. These are...very foreign to me, although I can see the attraction."

He smiled at her, still wondering what it was that made him feel so drawn to her. It was very different than what he felt with Snow, but he knew there was something special about this young woman, that somehow, in some sense, they knew each other.

"Will you...tell me of yourself, Emma?"

A small laugh left her lips at how long it took him to figure it out, shaking her head slightly. “If you have any questions about the technology on the train, you’re welcome to hit me up,” she told him as she took the device from his hand. Anyone else, she probably wouldn’t have been so quick to help, but she figured it was a way to spend time with her dad. Was that a wise idea? Probably not only she wasn’t thinking about it right now. Maybe later when she was on her own, she would think about that whole decision, but for now she didn’t really care.

“Doves and messengers?” Emma almost made a smartass comment about that before remembering where he was coming from. “Yeah, so not something we use where I’m from. Anyways, okay,” she said, moving the device so he could see it along with herself. “You know how to do the voice thing as that was how you did the last post. To write,” she hit a few buttons so the keyboard came up, “you do that and then type up the words that you want to say.” She set it back down on the table for him. “That’s how everyone talks to one another from how it seems,” she wasn’t surprised by that; however, she knew for him it might be a bit surprising.

His question caught her off guard, but she hid it well. “Umm yeah, sure. What do you want to know?” She figured that question would give her the chance to think about what she wanted to say. The truth was a little out of the question for the time being so she was going to need to be careful on what she said.

He smiled self-deprecatingly as she showed him how to work the device, humble even now. He was not one to overstate his strengths - doing that only got you into trouble. When he took the messenger back to her, he painstakingly texted her "Thank you Emma", proud that he was able to do so with very few mistakes.

"It seems...a very impersonal way to communicate," he said softly. "I should rather talk to someone face to face. Even letters seem more...intimate."

But he shrugged - who was he to judge the way a future land spoke to one another?

"What kind of world is it that you come from? What do you do? Are you married? Have you found your true love?"

They were serious questions, perhaps, but he wanted to know the answers, and he desperately hoped - for reasons that he could not explain even to himself - that this Emma had found happiness.

Emma figured that anyone who came to this train from fairy tale world not be that great with the technology aspect of things. Only she wasn’t here to save the whole fairy tale world even if Henry thought so. No, she didn’t need people to depend on her when she couldn’t even save herself or her son. It was different though when the person was her father because she never spent time with him expect for once in a while in Storybrooke. “Not a problem,” she told him with a smile.

He was right, but she just knew what her world was like. “Yeah, but people find it easier. We have email, texting, IM, and things like that people can go a while without actually talking face to face with a person. That’s how the world works where I’m from; however, you still have some who are more for the face to face chatting.”

Some of the questions caused Emma to shake her head, running her fingers through her blonde hair as she thought about the questions he just asked. “I come from a world that has more technology based stuff as you can tell,” she really didn’t know how to answer that. She could have said like Henry said on how the world was one without magic or happy endings, but she didn’t think how that would go over. “I jump around from job to job that I never had one that I kept with. Lately though I’ve been sheriff for a small town. No, no, I’m not married and no offense to you, but I don’t believe in that true love stuff. Maybe it was just how I was raised but not a whole believer in that.” The idea of being married wasn’t one she wanted to think about considering she figured she was doomed to be alone forever.

When Emma denied the existence of true love, he simply smiled softly. He didn't need to believe in it - it was as real to him as the sun in the morning, or the stars in the sky.

"Perhaps it is a hard thing to accept until you have known it. But when you have...when you have felt what I feel for Snow - and I very much hope you do - then you will know that it is real. And that it's the only thing that matters. That love rules the world, and that everything else is just filler. Before I met Snow, my life was empty, and yet now...now...even knowing she's in the world makes it worth living. You'll see, someday."

He shook his head.

"Your world seems very complicated to me."

Emma was fighting the urge to roll her eyes. True love was only in the fairy tale world, but she couldn’t break that to him. How in the real world the concept of true love was a joke to so many including her. He seemed a strong believer in it and she couldn’t do that to her father; however, she could stick to what she believed in. “Not everyone has a one true love and I’m happy that you have it, but like I said I don’t believe in the whole thing,” she really couldn’t go into why because for some reason she was afraid to tell the man she knew as her father about her reasons behind it. “Maybe I will and maybe I won’t but I’m fine with my life where it is,” such a lie. Then again she didn’t need to get into what was wrong.

Pushing her hair back, she wanted to get off the topic of her since she really didn’t like talking about herself. When he said that about her world, she wanted to tell him how he was dealing with her world back in Storybrooke, but she knew he didn’t know about that place. “It will get easier, trust me. Okay, has anyone told you anything about the train? Might as well know where to start.” Emma figured getting back on the topic of the train would keep them off the topic of her.

"You may know a great deal more than me, Emma, but this I know beyond a shadow of a doubt - true love exists, and I have known it. Perhaps you are right, that it does not exist for everyone, although I believe it does. Perhaps you have simply not found yours yet. Because you do not seem happy to me."

He changed the subject when she did, his eyes widening a bit when she asked about the train.

"I...have heard what they told me over the network, but only that. I admit that I am not sure what to believe, and what not to believe."

“I’m sure I don’t know a great deal more than you. It only seems like that because the world you came to is with things that I’ve had or dealt with causing me to know them,” she said with a shake of her head. Emma cared about a few people because of that emotional connection that she wanted to keep away from. No emotional connection, no pain when she lost them and it was always a matter of time before that happened. With the huntsman, she cared about him probably more than she wanted to admit, but well she didn’t even want to go down that road at the moment, especially when she heard him say about her not seeming happy. “I don’t? Well, it has been a long week so maybe it’s taking a toll on me right now,” more like a long life, but she figured keep it simple and act like she was having a long week.

A small smirk came over her lips at his reaction about the train.

Emma knew that feeling all too well on what to believe, and what not believe. “Yeah, I haven’t been here long, but I know a few things from my exploring to try and find a way home along with asking a few people. You know this is a train that pulls people from their worlds, that part of you is still in your world while another part of you is here, and that you get assigned a roommate?” She made sure she had most of it correct before sighing as she leaned back. “From what I heard the train has clothes for people in the front part of the train. They won’t be clothes that you’re used to,” she commented, motioning to his outfit, “but they are clothes so you can change or whatever. The train does stop from what I’ve been told; however I’ve also heard the stops are not always the best.” Emma was sure he could watch out for himself, but she would be making sure no one or nothing messed with him even more so Regina.

"I am sorry you have had a hard week, but however hard things become, never give up hope in love. It is the strongest force there is, and with it we can conquer all wrongs."

He smiled at her softly again, then nodded.

"I am fond of my clothes, but it would be nice to have a change. What kind of places does the train stop? Surely it wouldn't drop us into danger?"

Emma shook her head for a moment as she fought back a small laugh at that word hope. It brought back the thought of why Henry was given the book full of fairy tales to begin with was because Mary Margaret wanted to give Henry hope. “Not your fault that I’ve had a hard week,” she told him with a smile. The rest of the about love and everything she left alone because the last thing she needed was to argue with the man who was probably her dad when he really did believe in all that stuff.

A nervous laugh left her lips before biting her lips softly, “From what I heard the places are not the best. They have had some interesting stops that could be considered dangerous, but the train also likes to screw with people on board.” She had been listening in and trying to get a feel for this train, which was how she heard about how people had been switching abilities or gifts or something that they had. “I heard that the places it can stop varies from all over different time periods but the devices,” she nodded to the thing she had been teaching him how to use, “sometimes says where the next stop is.”

"Will there be ways to protect Snow if these stops are dangerous?" he asked quickly, her safety, as always, his first thought. "Are there weapons? I have my sword, but if these are as you say...will swords even be useful?"

He stood, pacing a little.

"The train messes with our minds? With our very nature? It could make me into something I am not?"

He did not like this at all.

“I’m sure there are ways and I wouldn’t allow anything to happen to either one of you,” she said without thinking about how that sounded. Why would a stranger care about two people being in trouble? Then again he would probably think nothing about it and if he did, then she would come up with something to cover her ass. All she knew was she wouldn’t allow anything to happen to either one of them. “That I don’t know. I’m only still learning from what I know, but I’m sure people have weapons. I’m sure swords would be useful,” she was already determined to find a gun at the next stop if they had a place for guns.

When he started to pace, she found herself get a little edgy just something she couldn’t stand was people pacing it got her on edge; however, she glanced out the window at the cows to ignore his pacing. That’s until he spoke again causing her to turn her attention back to him. “Like I heard it has switched abilities on people right now. One who have magic had lost it, where people without magic was finding themselves with it. I don’t know all the details cause I’m new, but I heard the train likes to mess with people.” Great job Emma with freaking him out!

"Abilities? You mean...magic? I have no magic, so I suppose something such as that would not affect me?"

He paused, her words adding to his growing discomfort.

"So...you mean there are many here who do have magic? That is...unfortunate. Magic is very dangerous and has a high cost."

“Not just magic as I’ve been hearing. People who were vampires had given that whole thing to another person. No, I don’t think so,” she really only knew bits and pieces, but she didn’t blame everyone from fairy tale world being unsure of magic. Emma didn’t even grow up in that world and now that she was remembering everything, she could see why magic was an issue. The fact Regina could take everyone from their world and dump them in a world that sucked pretty much every day. Pushing all that thoughts that started popping up aside, she shifted again in her seat. Normally, she wasn’t so on edge because she learned over the years how to lie. Emma hated lying, but she knew sometimes it was for the best.

Emma wrinkled her nose for a moment before nodding. “Yes, but from what I’ve heard most of the people with magic are not bad. Maybe from your world; however, people here are from a different world so they might not see it the same way.” She pointed out. For Emma, she never really believed in magic or anything like that so it was weird for her to talk about it without even rolling her eyes or anything.

"Well...I suppose I will take you at your word on that one. Magic seems a frightening thing to me, and I think I will choose to keep my distance from now on."

He smiled at her.

"Shall we have a glass of wine, perhaps?"

“I think it all depends on what type you have in your world or the type of magic you’ve seen,” she said, thinking about how she was saying that. Emma still had her doubts about everything from who her parents were or more she was trying to convince herself that it wasn’t real just like the whole thing with the fairy tales wasn’t real. Problem was she knew the whole thing was real, especially with the fact her father was the man right in front of her. She knew she couldn’t slip back to not seeing the truth when she now remembered most things like how he was stabbed by some men while trying to get her to safety. The fact her son had told her the queen had dark magic was why she knew the ones from fairy tale world weren’t a fan of magic. “From what I’ve heard about your world, I don’t blame you on that.” She told him with a nod.

At the question of wine it caused her to smirk slightly. Seemed like since Emma found herself on the train that alcohol was becoming her best friend and she wasn’t picky about what she drank. First to deal with everything back home then to deal with the fact Graham was alive, and now she knew she would be drinking for the fact her father was around. Emma had a bad feeling that she was going to end up with a drinking problem, but she didn’t care. “Sure, we can do that.”

He carefully selected a bottle of wine, and poured it neatly into two glasses, handing one to her before taking a seat at the simple table in the room.

"I come from a world that supposedly has both good and bad magic. But the magic I have seen..."

Dragons, and sirens, and the Evil Queen. Rumplestiltskin and the magical deals he had made that took him from his home and forever sundered him from his mother.

"Dark magic seems stronger than good magic, at least in my experience. Of course, love is the strongest magic of all," he said, the expression on his face changing and softening. "They say it can break any spell, no matter how strong."
