Chapter One -

Pilot

I was walking down the stairs, when I saw my two brothers standing there

"Eliana" said both of my brothers

"Darling brothers, is father home?" I asked as I reached the bottom

"Yes, he is" said Gerhardt

"He has set up some suitors for you" said Victor

"I can not believe that he wants to get rid of me so soon" I said

"He is not trying to get rid of you" said Gerhardt

"He is. I am only sixteen, and he is already arranging my marriage to someone I do not know" I said

"I know, darling Eliana" said Victor as he held out his arm for me

I took his arm, and Gerhardt lead the way to our father's study

I awoke to the sound of my alarm, I quickly turn it off. And then I glared at the offending clock, as I get out of bed. I soon then have a shower and get dressed. I make my way to Granny's diner, to start work

"Elli!" said Ruby as she pulled me into a hug

"Ruby, can't breathe" I said as Ruby let go of me

"Granny didn't tell me that you were working today" said Ruby

"Maybe, because she knows that we gossip to much" I said

"True" said Ruby

After work, I started to walk home, when I saw a yellow punch bug drive into town.

"What the..." I said as I noticed Henry get out of the car, following the blonde's woman lead

"Look, it's been a long night, and it's almost..." said the woman as she looks at the clock tower

"Eight-fifteen?" asked the woman

"That clock hasn't moved my whole life. Time's frozen here" said Henry as I thought about what he said

It's true, the clock hasn't moved at all

"Excuse me?" asked the woman

"The Evil Queen did it with her curse. She sent everyone from the Enchanted Forest here" said Henry

"Hang on. The Evil Queen sent a bunch of fairytale characters here" said the woman

"Yeah. And now they're trapped" said Henry

"Frozen in time, stuck in Storybrooke, Maine. That's what you're going with?" asked the woman

"It's true!" Henry exclaimed

"Then why doesn't everybody just leave?" asked the woman

"They can't. If they try, bad things happen" said Henry as I walk over to him and so does Archie with his dog, Pongo.

"Henry! What are you doing here?" asked Archie

"Is everything all right?" I asked

"I'm fine, Archie and Elli" said Henry as he starts to pat Pongo

"Who's this?" asked Archie

"Just someone trying to give him a ride home" said the woman

"She's my mom, Archie" said Henry

"Oh...I see" said Archie

"Yeah" I said

"You know where he lives?" asked the woman

"Oh. Yeah, sure, just uh, right up on Miffin Street" said Archie

"The Mayor's house is the biggest one on the block" I said

"You're the mayor's kid?" asked the woman

"Uh. Maybe" said Henry

"Hey. Where were you today, Henry, because you missed our session" said Archie

"And your regular milkshake beforehand" I said

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. I went on a field trip" said Henry as Archie crouches to be face to face with Henry

"Henry, what'd I tell you about lying? Giving in to one's dark side never accomplishes anything" said Archie as I share a look with Henry's birth mom

"Okay! Well, I really should be getting him home" said the woman as Archie stood up

"Yeah. Sure. Well, listen, have a good night, and uh, you be good, Henry" said Archie

"I'll see you tomorrow kiddo" I said as I ruffled his hair as I started walking with Archie

I get home, and face plant the bed and go to sleep

I was in a jungle, of sorts, running as if I was being chased. I could hear the whooping and the battle cries of the boys, so I picked up my skirts and started to run faster. I made it to a beach, and I looked back to the jungle and bit my lip. I was unsure of what to do, when suddenly something hit me and my world went black. I awoke later to find myself in a room, that I knew was not the tree-house I had be living in. "Ah, your awake, lass" said a voice and I turned to it. There was a man with short black hair and stubble with bright blue eyes, he was wearing a leather jacket and leather pants and he had a hook instead of a hand. I shot up out of the bed and pressed myself firmly against the wall "Where am I?" I asked "Safe. Away from the lost boys" said the man "Who are you?" I asked "My name's Killian Jones. And who are you, lass?" asked Killian "My name is Eliana Frankenstein" I said "You're not originally from Neverland, are you?" asked Killian "No. I am not" I said "Then how did you end up here?" asked Killian "I was invited" I said

I awoke, and sat up in bed. I then got organize and headed to work, and Granny instantly sends me over to the Sheriff's department with take away coffees. I walk in and notice that Graham wasn't around but I noticed that Henry's birth mom was in a cell

"What are you looking at, sister?" asked Leroy

"Hey, Leroy, manners!" I said as Marco nodded in agreement

"We have a guest! So you are eh, Henry's mother. How lovely for him to have you back in his life" said Marco

"Actually, I was just dropping him off" said Emma

"Don't blame ya. They're all brats, who needs 'em" said Leroy

"Well, I'd give anything for one. My wife and I, we tried for many years, but, uh...He was not meant to be" said Marco

"Well cry me a river" said Leroy

"Leroy!" I said as Graham enters and unlocks Leroy's cell

"I'm going to let you out, you need to behave. Put on a smile, and stay out of trouble" said Graham as Leroy smiles falsely and then exits

I walk up to Graham and hand him his coffee

"Seriously?" asked Henry's birth mom

"Regina's drinks, a little stronger than we thought" said Graham

"I wasn't drunk, there was a wolf, standing in the middle of the road" said Henry's birth mom

"A wolf" said Graham

"Right" I said

"Graham? Henry's run away again, we have to..." said Regina as she comes into the room

"What is she doing here?" asked Regina as she gestures to Henry's birth mom

"I'll get going. I'll put the coffee on the tab" I said as I walked to the door and nodded at Regina and then left

After a long day of work, I went to Granny's Bed and Breakfast to meet up with Ruby as we were going out. I stood quietly in the foyer, when Henry's birth mom comes in

"You're out all night, and now you're going out again" said Granny as her and Ruby come downstairs

"I should've moved to Boston!" Ruby yelled as I winced at the fact they both hadn't noticed Henry's birth mom yet

"I'm sorry that my heart attack interfered with your plans to sleep your way down the Eastern Seaboard with Elli!" yelled Granny

"Excuse me? I'd...Like a room?" asked Henry's birth mom

"Really?" asked Granny as Henry's birth mom nods

Granny quickly fetches the ledger. Granny then moves behind the desk

"Would you like a forest view or a square view? Normally there's an upgrade fee for the square, but as the rent is due, I'll wave it" said Granny

"Square is fine" said Henry's birth mom

"Now. What's the name?" asked Granny

"Swan. Emma Swan" said Emma as Mr. Gold enters the bed and breakfast

I stiffen at the sight of Mr. Gold as he stands behind Emma

"Emma...What a lovely name" said Gold

"Thanks" said Emma as Granny removes a roll of cash from a drawer, and hands it to Gold

"It's all here" said Granny as Mr. Gold accepts it without counting it

"Yes, yes, of course it is, dear. Thank you" said Gold

He then turns to Emma

"Enjoy your stay, Emma" said Gold as he then turns and leaves

I let out a breath that I didn't know that I had held

"Who's that?" asked Emma as Ruby watches Mr. Gold through the curtains

"Mr. Gold" said Ruby

"He owns this place" I said as I felt my hand shake

"The inn?" asked Emma

"No. The town" I said as Ruby gripped onto my hand to stop the shaking

"So! How long will you be with us?" asked Granny

"A week. Just a week" said Emma

"Great" said Granny as she hands Emma an old-fashion key

"Welcome to Storybrooke" said Granny as I felt my vision go blurry and then my world went black

I stood at a cliff, looking at the stars, when I felt a presence behind me. "What are you looking at, love?" asked a voice "The stars. I'm wondering about my family" I said as I looked over my shoulder and saw the boy that had in a way saved me. "Why are you wondering about them?" asked the boy "Because, Peter, they are still my family" I said "But they don't care about you, Eliana" said Peter "I'm mainly worried about Victor" I said.
