Surrounding me are thousands of trees, each one identical. I'm alone and lost in an inescapable forest. The winds howling violently and I'm drenched from the rain. Deafening bangs of thunder petrify me. Wait! What's that? An old mansion towering above the trees is just visible in the distance. Overwhelmed with hope, I manage to find the energy to sprint towards the enormous house. Branches are tearing at my bare flesh, leaving me covered in blood but I don't care. All I can think about is the warmth and shelter from that house. With trepidation, I push open the creaky gate, shuffling nervously towards the door. I knock on the wooden door, waiting apprehensively. I'm about to give up when the door swings open all by itself. About to turn around I was push inside the door slamming shut behind me, and I just slept through the night.
The rays of the sun shined in, I am unable to pass because of the big black creature bestowed before me. It reaches it claws underneath of me and before I knew it I was locked away in a cellar. So many people surrounding me and I didn't know what to do. I tried to run but got nowhere. Tried to escape but got as far as the gates lie. I am trapped like beast. I look up to see all eyes gazing upon me. Her eyes as brown as the dirt I once had bathed in. Hair as dark as the thief in the night. "What is your name?" Was the only thing that could escape her lips, scared to answer I ran towards the metal rack with a green blanket and slid under it. I heard mumbling and pushed as far away as I could. After moments of silence, I heard metal rattling and something was near. A woman bent down to look at me. "Lily?" I gasped as I saw my best friend once a girl and now a grown woman. Her brown eyes shined, while searching mine and I came out and held onto her.
The journey did not begin here but a long time ago, in minnesota. That's where we all met. We may have all had different features about us but in the end we all wanted the same thing, somebody to love us. One day in the evening I was making a run downtown just to feel the wind in my hair and the bluebirds sing it made life seem beautiful. Every sight of the waves and the sun setting made all the difference in the world. I let go of reality. A girl a little bit older than me, about 13, with brown hair and chocolate eyes glanced at me along with a girl with blond hair and sea blue eyes. They walked towards me and the browned headed girl said, "What's your name?" I mumbled, "Whatever Lily" We all laughed. Lily had been with us for a while. We all ran away from the stupid orphanage. The woman was very mean to us, rarely fed us, and locked us in rooms with nothing. Emma on the other hand just came, she has been a foster kid all of her life and Lily helped her get out of a shoplifting incident. So we began to walk towards our place that we call home. Emma said, "Did you get anything good?" I looked around making sure nobody was watching, then I pulled a wallet out of my backpack along with a piece of green jewelry. "I also got a couple blanket along with bread and some fruit." They smiled and soon we all approached at this huge cave in the middle of the woods. We all walked inside, and the rest of the kids hudled around me as I showed the what I had collected for the day. Everyone sat down as dinner was served. Then huddled close trying to ignore the wind howling while the wolves sang their last song.
In Storybrooke:
The room fell dead silent, you could only hear the sound of maleficent sweeping into the room. "Lily?" She uttered. Lily looked up at her mother. "Why did you run away?" She looked at the floor still trying to comprehend what had just occurred. "I...I" She mumbled. Regina spoke up, "You know this girl?" Lily ignored her but Regina knew. "How?" Regina protested. She had no words at the time. She simply ignored the question turning towards Savannah. "Where have you been? Where are the other? Are you okay?" A puff of black smoke cloud in around us, It was Emma. Lily pushed Sav aside and they both stared. Emma said, "Well well well." She laughed. "The devil has arrived." She bowed before Savannah. Nobody knew what else to make out of this. Regina said, "Emma, who is this?" Emma laughed once again, wickedly, "This is Savannah." Regina was getting frustrated, "And your relations?" Emma smirked turning her head towards Regina then once again back to Savannah. "It is quite sad that you don't know who your own niece is." Regina's brows furrowed. Lily grasped on to her tighter. "What are you even talking about Ms. Swan?" Snow looked at her daughter confused at the scene. Emma smirk reappeared, "That child that Zelena is carrying," she pointed at Zelena's stomach, "That is Savannah." Zelena stands up. Regina says calmly, "Then why is she not in her mother's stomach?" Emma's laughter filled the room. "That is not any of your concern." Robin's jaw dropped. Regina shot back, "Well as my niece it is my concern." Zelena stood there still astonished. She looked at her daughter closely it was like they had already met. Regina lunged towards Savannah and Lily then grabbed her hand and they ran out. Zelena watched her daughter look back at her. Once they were gone Emma said, "Now that was a very happy ending." Everyone followed them. They finally caught up and Zelena and Maleficent glimpsed one last time at their daughters, then proof, they were engulfed into the green smoke.
