(Once Upon A Time and its characters aren't mine but Clary is)
"Dammit."
Clary groaned as she stepped in yet another pile of mud. Not to mention, she has leaves all over her new Forever 21 black leather jacket. She sighed before looking around. What the bloody hell is she doing in a motherfucking forest? She does not remember a single thing to explain why she suddenly was here, boots filled with mud and hair and jacket all filled with unwanted crispy leaves.
She just remembered waking up in a pile of dried leaves as if it was the most normal thing to wake up to. At least she still has her bag.
She looked around and found a worn looking log and what seemed to be burn sticks. Someone was here.
Clary sat down and put her bag to the side, looking around. She was in the middle of nowhere! Her phone doesn't have signal (so much for iPhone 6), her clothes are all crumpled up and her foods are crushed to bits.
"Stupid forest and stupid memory and stupid leaves and stupid twigs!" She yelled as she removed her leather jacket, leaving her with her white fitted top as she shook the leaves of her black jacket. After that, noticing that it is quite hot in the middle of the forest, she just tied the jacket in her waist. She then set to work in removing the leaves in her jeans and the mud in her boots. Fishing through her bag, she got out a mirror and proceeded to take the leaves out of her hair to make it look less like a bird's nest.
After beautifying (lols is that a word) she looked up and saw the sun high up in the sky. That means its morning, right? She knows absolutely nothing about camping let alone the outdoors! Sighing, she stood up and got her bag. If she wanted to get out of this damned forest, she needs to get to the edge and probably find some houses and ask them where the hell she is and how to get back to New York.
So Clary did set out, hours of walking and walking, the thought of being eaten by a damn lion on her mind. With the sun high up and her watch, that she forgot she had, saying it was 3:00, she reached the outskirts of the forest.
"What the fuck?!" She said. This wasn't what she was expecting at all! The people were dressed like its halloween, as if they were in the medieval ages. It was like a little village filled with little wooden houses. There were ropes hanging from trees that were filled with clothes that seemed to be newly washed, dripping wet. A pub was in the corner of the said village with wooden tables and chairs outside, people drinking their asses off.
"What the hell is this?" She whispered, completely and definitely confused. But one this is for sure, she does not want to go sauntering in the middle of the village looking like a complete idiot with her awesome clothes so she went to the clothes hanging, the dry ones.
"Corsets? Really? Yuck." Carly said to herself. Since she doesn't know how to wear a corset, she just got a woollen cloak that itches - oh well.
Trudging down towards the villags, she did her best to camouflage and not look that surprised.
"Excuse me," Clary said as pleasant as she could. Heaven knows she isn't the soft speaker kind of person. The person wore a light blue dress that is shameful to fashion with boots that does not definitely fit the gross outfit. She had a bright smile on her face that is sickeningly sweet. Ew.
"Yes?"
"Do you happen to know where this is?"
"Oh this is in the West Kingdom, it's near the castle of the Evil Queen."
West Kingdom? Castle? What the hell is she talking about?
"Evil Queen? West Kingdom?" Clary asked with confusion written on her face.
"Yes. Are you not from around here?" The lady asked, looking at her in a skeptical and odd way and she almost replied, 'the fuck no'. She lived in a place where there were cities and there are greedy politicians, not castles and kingdoms and queens!
She has to think quick-
"I - I uh... i came from... From the- the Northern Kingdom!" She wiped her brow saying, "The trip was truly tiring, took me almost a week."
The lady was dumb enough to set aside her stuttering and nodded understandingly.
"Of course, well, this village is only a day away from the Queen's castle. They were gone the majority of the time and we were frozen but then, we are now moving and bustling around. Rumours said that the Queen has now returned, with Snow White and the Prince himself!" The Lady replied, sighing and shaking her head. "I do not know what got in the Princess, truly."
"Snow White? She's real?!" She couldn't help but asked. The woman looked at her strangely and walked away. Great.
Shaking her head, she decided to just return to the forest where she had left her bag, only to find it not there!
"Looking for this?" A woman's voice said that made her turn around in a flash. She gasped.
The woman was... Was green!
She had a black pointy hat with a silky form fitting dress that went down to the ground, brushing the leaves that fell. A dark green pendant rested on her neck, her almost blonde hair peeking out from her hat. Light grey eyes peered into her, as if she knows every secret you have.
"Give. Me. My bag." She said slowly, thankful that she brought her bag that can easily fit in this uh, era?
The green ugly monster just smiled wickedly. As she threw her her bag to the floor. But she didn't take it, just went over and placed her feet above it. She was not going to pick her bag up and bow down to this green woman.
"Why not pick the bag dear?"
"None of your business and don't you 'dear' me." Clary said stubbornly. Instead of feeling offended, the lady just chuckled and clapped her hands.
"Stubborn. Perfect." The lady said, walking towards her, making her kock her bag backwards as she slowly took steps back.
Swirling her hands, the lady let out a smirk as green smoke came out from her hands. Clary gasped and took a step back, tripping on her bag and falling down, fear evident in her eyes as the lady loomed her, a wicked glint playing beneath her eyes.
"Who are you and what are you gonna do?" She asked, trying to keep her voice in check.
The woman just smiled.
"Let's say I'm taking you some place... Unpleasant." She said before rising to her full height, eyes glued to the young girl. "For the other question, someone you should watch out for."
And with that, green smoke enveloped her and her senses. Then everything went black.
*Regina's Castle*
Regina jolted awake from her nap, panting as her sweat fell like drops of rain. She got a towel from her nightstand, wiping her face. After that, she found herself staring blankly at the wall.
It was Henry yet again, in her dreams. She can't really call them nightmares for in dreams can she only see her son. Even if it was of the worst moments.
She stood and went to the balcony, the place she can seek solace in the for corners of her big bed chamber. The sun was almost setting, the sky was painted with orange, red and blue. Sighing, the Queen rested her forearms in the fences, a flash of memory invaded her mind of the last time she went here, which included falling and flying off the night sky.
It's been a week now, and she continued to despise each day she spends with the bumbling idiots Snow took in. Snow took them in because the princess knows she would never take any lowlife peasants in her majestic castle. If it was not for her son, who she still hopes to see every single day and night, she would've fried and roasted the Charmings and the unwanted persons running around HER castle. Heaven knows how much she hates this setting.
Somewhere in her musings, when the sun had completely set and darkness took over just how she liked it, a surge of magic pulsed through her veins, making her gasp in pain. She coughed and quickly thought of the throne room, where Snow White and her insolent husband. She was wrapped within her magic and soon, she stood in the throne room, falling in the arms of someone as she stumbled.
"Regina!" Snow said as David ran to her checking for any injuries. She looked up within the clear blue eyes of the thief that caught her, tightening her hold on his arms.
"Someone has breached the barrier."
