"My family love me" Emma defends heatedly, the older blond had managed to needle a rather tender spot as of late, worry her parents (mostly Snow) were afraid of her now she had magic, especially with her limited control over said magic.
To her surprise the Snow Queen began to laugh "Oh Emma, it's almost sad that you believe that, you really think they'll accept you now you're a sorceress? We're taking about the White Family, who's kingdom basically banned all magic that wasn't used by the fairies, who all kissed Snow's ass because the Blue Fairy practically lived up there? No, they'll never understand, because they won't even try, they'll pretend, hope this magic thing is just a phase but it'll break one day. You and I are very alike Emma my dear, I'm just a few years ahead of the curve, they'll let their true thoughts out and when they do they'll show you they don't see the brilliant woman I do all they see is a monster"
"THAT ISN'T TRUE!" the sheriff yells as she slams the desk, lights exploding or sparking and a heatwave beginning to form in the room, the only thing protecting Ingrid was her own magical aura, which she had to lightly push to the forefront, knocking aside any of Emma's magic before it could affect her.
Now magic is a part of every mage, but it's also a little bit alive, because of that Emma's magic 'knew' there were problems, knew it wasn't working right and needed to do something about it in order to not destroy itself and Emma. A godsend was the abundance of much more stable and almost solid magical energy in the vicinity, which Emma's magic hungrily tried to absorb and assimilate. The problem came from a slight issue, Ingrid had a fully formed Ice Core, much stronger and stable than Elsa's stunted Ice Core or Emma's Fire Core, so when Emma's magic tried to use Ingrid's magic to pull itself together (The woman magic allowing it as Emma not blowing things up in the nearby area was good for both of them) the chill and mixmatch of elements, meant that Emma's core chilled and condenses, unexpectedly as her magical core shrank, so did she.
Emma's mind was a little preoccupied, which was why she didn't notice her diminishing size until she was looking at the edge of the desk she'd been previously leaning on, and when looking up saw Ingrid looking down at her with a mix of surprise and amusement as the girl continues to slip away until she was only a few inches tall.
What now?
1) Ingrid seizes the chance to have Emma be hers once more, stealing her away and disappearing
2) The Snow Queen uses the confusion to poof and Emma's left alone and confused... for about a minute before the other heroes show up and find her in her current form
2) Ingrid escapes and a fearful Emma hides away until she can get a grip on her situation   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
