If you want me to

It was a beautiful day in the forest, as Emma knelt at Hook’s side. He was dying and very close to death, but he didn’t want her to use any sort of magic to turn him into The Dark One. He had spent over a century fighting the darkness. He wasn’t strong enough to resist if he was The Dark One. When he was nearly dead though, she went against his wishes. Everyone close to her had always ended up dying. She didn’t want to lose him. She had lost so many people throughout her life. She couldn’t bear to lose Killian, too. So she did what she had to do to save him. She turned him into The Dark One.
Later, when he was The Dark One and she wasn’t being straight with him, he decided to walk away from her, despite her calling his name to stop him from leaving.
When she found him in the heart of the forest, they argued, him thinking that she didn’t trust him anymore, which wasn’t true at all.
*Emma Saved*
Anywhere
I would’ve followed you
Say something
I’m giving up on you
And I
I’m feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all

After getting home and after Emma was saved from the darkness, everyone found out that Hook was the new Dark One and the most evil of all, unable to resist temptation; the lure of darkness. They did everything they could to break the hold that the darkness had on Killian.
*The Sacrifice*
And I
Will stumble and fall
I’m still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
Say something
I’m giving up on you
I’m sorry that I couldn’t get to you
Anywhere
I would’ve followed you
Say something
I’m giving up on you
And I
Will swallow my pride
You’re the one that I love
And I’m saying goodbye
Say something
I’m giving up on you

The night that the first ever Dark Ones marked the living for the underworld; apart from Hook of course, everyone met at the river to try and at least save Hook, or to even stop him and the first Dark Ones.
When Emma tried to talk him out of it, one of the first Dark Ones, Nume, used magic on her.
“I may not be able to kill you, but I can keep you quiet,” Nume said, as she held out her hand while using magic, tightening her throat.
Emma put a hand on her own chest, as she tried to breathe and looked at Hook, who looked back at her, watching her struggle with breathing. Then, just as she thought that he wasn’t going to stop it and that she would die, and just moments before she would lose her balance and when her vision was blurry from lack of oxygen, she heard him tell her to stop.
“Stop it,” Hook ordered Nume.
Nume continued to make it hard for Emma to breathe, not heeding him.
He took the Excalibur sword from its sheath and used it on the Dark Ones to save Emma, putting them in the sword. He then looked at her.
“I can’t hold the darkness inside the caliber for long,” he told her, before telling her to kill him.
As they kissed, she knew it was the only way to get rid of the darkness for good. So, even though she didn’t want to do it, she killed him with the Excalibur. Then she let it fall to the ground and she fell to her knees in tears, heartbroken, as everyone else watched and Henry hugged her in comfort, nobody having anything to say. There was nothing to say to make her feel better. She had just watched the man that she loved die, yet again. Only time could heal.
