The Dark One Cast the Curse
Author's note: This is the very first fanfiction I have ever written, so please don't be too soul crushing in the reviews if this fanfiction turns out to be terrible and I hope you are able to enjoy this fanfiction. I don't own any of the characters of Once Upon A Time, but I will be changing them a bit. For example Red and Granny didn't meet Snow White while she was on the run from Regina. Red and Granny are in the story but they just don't meet until later in the story. Regina and Snow White made amends at the stables where Regina was supposed to poison Snow. Snow White is Queen. There are 2 curses the dark curse and a time curse. Also the Blackbeard in this fanfic has dead zombie slave things like those Cora used in season 2 of the real series, but without the heart ripping out.
Prologue
On the pirate ship of Blackbeard
Captain Blackbeard was trying to find a way to the fountain of Youth, which could only be found after traveling to many extremely deadly worlds to find the Vault of the Sea where the gods hid it from humanity. He discovered that the only way to get in the Vault of the Sea was to have the purest form of magic must open the gate. So Blackbeard went to a witch to reveal to him the object that had this magic. The witch revealed to them that it was not an object but the unborn child of Queen Snow White and King Charming. Blackbeard knew he had to get the child to come willingly and the child had to be able to defend its self and do whatever he said. So he planned that when the child was born he would steal it and raise it as his own.
At the castle of the Dark One
Rumpelstiltskin had been searching tirelessly for alternative way to cast to the curse. He found that if you a cursed object that is cursed with the purest angry from a soul who has already lost their true love, the thing they love the most. The curse would need 30 years to charge to take the souls to the other world and how the time passes will be messed up, in some lands time will freeze. In other lands time will slow down, slowing down everyone. He also knew he had to wait for the child of Snow White and Charming to be born and that she cannot be raised by her parents so when he looked into the future and saw Captain Blackbeard was going to abduct the child and raise her as his own, so he knew he had to make sure that Blackbeard got the child and that Snow and Charming did not get her. So Rumpelstiltskin decided he would cause a distraction for Blackbeard and cast the curse so Snow and Charming won't be able to find her. Rumpelstiltskin found the poison apple Regina was going to use on Snow White and once he was ready he waited till it was time to cast the curse.
At the castle of Queen Snow White and King Charming during Snow's labor
Once Rumpelstiltskin knew Snow was in labor, he sent the word out so Blackbeard could hear and go for the child. Then he sent a horrible cloud of dark magic to attack the castle and distracts the guards, Regina, the dwarfs, and anyone else who dare try and protect the child.
Blackbeard was sneaking into the castle when he saw dark creatures attacking the guards and anyone else that tried to stop them but left him alone so he continued to search for the child.
Snow screamed in pain as she pushed the child out. With the castle under attack they had to evacuate so they split up, 4 dwarfs went to take baby Emma to a safe location as fast as possible and 3 dwarfs stayed with Snow and Charming to help Charming move and protect the very weak and tired Snow White. Happy carried Emma down a corridor when they were attacked by the invading darkness the 3 dwarfs fought as best they could but they were out matched so Happy hid the child under a completely indestructible table with a cloth that went to the floor and went to help his brothers fight.
As Blackbeard continued to search, when he heard a baby crying he went towards the sound. He saw 4 dwarfs fighting the monsters that were attacking the castle and slipped by without the dwarfs, noticing following the cries. He found the child under a table wrapped in a baby blanket that said Emma on it. He took the child without anyone noticing he was ever there. Once Blackbeard was riding away from the castle Rumpelstiltskin cast the curse and began the 30 year charge.
