This is my first real OUAT fic, sort of just came to me, I really hope you like, I'm not sure of the pairings, definitely snowing and maybe others I dunno. This is my own twist on the first series.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

The worst curse

Prince charming ran through the corridors of the castle, his sword drew in one hand, the other carrying very precious cargo.

His and his wife's daughter, Emma, she was barely an hour old and yet was already being exposed to all the evil and violence in their world, not the happily ever after or love.

He knew he was running out of time, it would only be a matter of minutes before the curse was upon them, no one knew what was going to happen, well apart from the evil queen that cast it.

There came a loud bang, the queens men had broken into the castle, upon realising this Charming's pace quickened, he ran as fast as he could, all through the winding corridors, until he reached the room, what would have eventually become Emma's nursery.

He let go of a breath as he saw the wardrobe, Snow had told him that he had to make sure Emma was put inside, for she would save them all, from whatever doom it was that the curse would cast upon them.

Just as he was about to pull open the doors the enchanted piece of furniture, the door opened with an all mighty bang, Charming turned, Emma still in his arms, his sword still aimed at the guards as they rushed in.

He fought with them while still trying to protect Emma, but there were too many of the, and with every clash of a sword he could feel Emma getting more and more tense, he knew any minute now that his little girl would start crying.

Charming knew Emma was their only hope, he had to get her into the wardrobe, he turned and as he leant forward to open the doors of it, he felt a sharp pain pierce through his back into his front.

He felt cold and hot at the same time, slowly he found himself falling to the ground, he collapsed onto the floor, Emma with him, the blood seeped from his chest, onto Emma's handmade baby blanket turning the cream wall dark red.

Snow white came rushing in not long after, the queens men had obviously left looking for her, she saw her husband and her daughter laying there, Charming was still, his chest covered in blood, his skin almost as pale as her own, Emma lay crying, tears rolling down her chubby cheeks.

She was by charming's side in a minute, she pressed her lips to his, true loves kiss had saved them so many time from losing each other, but why wasn't it working now.

"It's too late dear" Snow turned to find her step mother, evil queen Regina, dressed in black, her favourite shade.

"No" Snow shook her head, she knew this wasn't the end, she could feel it inside of her.

All of a sudden the room filled up with what looked like purple smoke, magic…. And the room began to spin.

Snow grabbed hold of charming's hand and brought Emma close to her, Snow didn't care what happened, she had the two people she loved most with her, nothing could bad could happen.

"Where are we going?" she asked Regina, surely the queen owed her that.

Regina turned and almost laughed in Snow's face "A place where there are no happily ever afters" Her voice rang in Snow's ears as everything went black.

….

Like a blink Regina opened her eyes, she was in a bed, she sat up and looked around the room she was in, it was all so…. She couldn't explain it, it was sort of, for lack of a better word, normal.

She slipped out of the double bed and over to the window, she opened the curtains, and looked out, she was in a town, Storybrooke, everything said, a smile spread across her face, she liked this new world.

All of a sudden the sound of a baby crying made her turn around, there in the corner of the room was a basinet, slowly Regina walked towards it, she had a baby? Now she was confused.

As she approached she recognised the fair skin, blond hair, it wasn't her baby, it was Snow white and Prince charming's it was Emma.

The baby was wrapped in her baby blanket, her name woven in deep purple silk into the cream material, carefully Regina lent down and picked up Emma and began to slowly bounce her up and down, trying to sooth her.

To her surprise, Emma did so quickly, Regina even surprised herself at how she automatically fell into an almost motherly roll.

Taking another glance out of the window, she noticed Snow white walking down the street, Regina had to test something.

Quickly she changed into a smart black dress and everything else that went with it, she then wrapped baby Emma up into her baby blanket and walked outside.

As she began to walk down the street, she was greeted by nods from everyone and smiled, this was weird.

"Good Morning Mayor Mills, lovely day we are having" a redhead man nod to her as he crossed the road with his Dalmatian.

"Good morning to you too, Mr Hopper" she found herself replying, inside she knew he was Jiminy Cricket.

She then walked passed grannies, where grannie and Red, no Ruby, where having an argument.

Regina had been looking around so much that she didn't even bother to look in front of her, so she walked into Mary Margaret, or Snow white as Regina also knew her.

"Oh Mayor Mills I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going" Mary Margret told her, a hand going to her chest to stop her heart from beating so fast.

"It's alright" Regina gave her a fake smile, then began to walk away "Wait" she turned as did the other women. "Do you know who this is?" Regina asked Mary Margaret motioning to the asleep baby Emma in her arms.

"Of course I do" the younger women nodded "She's you daughter Emma" she smiled at Regina.

"Yes, she is, my daughter" Regina smiled and nodded.

"Wait" Mary Margaret called Regina back.

"Yes" Regina asked raising an eyebrow at her, did she all of a sudden remember?

Mary Margaret reached over and touched the edge of the baby blanket "It's a beautiful blanket" she smiled at Regina before walking away, down the street.

Regina also continued on her journey, she looked down at the baby Emma in her arms, she was her daughter now.

TBC…

I hope you like this, if you do there will be more, the next chapter will skip ten years so Emma is ten, then the story will start.
