Regina stood there with her hand shoved into her father's chest, as she stared down into his eyes, with a single tear tracing down her cheek. The man's eyes showed fear and pain, but also pity, pity for his daughter of whom he loved dearly, was so unhappy that all she wanted in life was revenge. Regina thought back to just moments ago, when her father told her that they could have a new life and find happiness, together. Was revenge worth his life? Did she need it that much? She was internally fighting herself, looking down at the figure gasping in pain. If she didn't do this, her enemies would not face the cruel fate they oh so deserved. Her father was the only thing she loved… she can't kill him, she just can't.She pulled her hand out, empty. Henry spilled on the floor heaving his chest back in forth. Relief flooded him, his daughter had not chosen to cast the curse, but instead chose happiness.

"I'm so Sorry Daddy." Regina sobbed has she knelt down to the man.

"It's alright sweetheart." He caressed her cheeks before embracing her tightly.

She buried her face into his shoulder, and couldn't help but bring her thoughts back to Snow White, and how she wasn't getting what she deserved. Regina had a million ideas bursting through her brain. The Dark Curse was off the table; the price was too heavy of a cost. She couldn't kill Snow, nor her family thanks to Rumpelstiltskin. Finally, a perfect idea hit her, how she hadn't thought of this sooner, was a mystery. This was good- no, great, a way that the precious Snow White could finally be destroyed.

Pain erupted throughout her body, she whaled out, her screams probably heard to the ends of the kingdom. Snow White pushed again, determined to see her daughter, to hear her cry, to look at her deeply and lovingly, and to feel her warmth in her arms. Doc told her one more push, would be all that's left, she did as he said and pushed one more time. The searing pain stopped and a high pitch cry echoed through the room. Doc held the baby in his arms, wiping her off then wrapping her in the blanket, sewn with the name Emma. Pure happiness radiated from Charming and Snow, as they stared down at their daughter, their Emma. She was radiant, blonde hair was sprinkled on top of her head, a pale completion, and with the tiny bit she opened her eyes Snow and charming could see she had forest green eyes, like her mother.

Suddenly a puff of purple smoke swirled in front of them, and the joy that radiated throughout the room was gone. Regina stood at the side of the bed smiling maniacally. Fear spread around Snow and she clutched Emma tighter. Charming lifted his arm defensively over the two, scowling at the women who stood before him.

"What are you doing here?" Snow snapped turning Emma away from Regina.

"I came to deliver some news."

"And what's that?" Charming spat.

"That you no longer have to worry about the curse… It's not coming."

"What?" Snow asked shocked. Hope spread all around her, but she quickly pushed it away." No, no you're lying!" She finished.

"I'm not. the price was, uh… too costly." Regina said, a flicker of emotion shining in her eyes. "But… I do have a plan, one that will break you from the inside out." She turned her head toward the baby, an evil smirk playing across her features.

"NO!" Charming lunged at Regina, she laughed before she waved her wrist, resulting in purple clouds engulfing Emma and herself. The small baby was no longer in the arms of Snow, and the hope she had, was quickly replaced with dread and sadness. Snow breathed heavily the panic setting in. Emma was gone, Regina took her. How could she!? Tears pooled out of her eyes, everything she was looking forward to, over the last nine months was gone, never to return again. Charming rushed to comfort his sobbing wife, telling her that everything would be okay, before he raced to the basket containing their swords, and picking up his favorite one.

"Get a search party ready!" Charming yelled to the guards at the far end of the hall, and then turned to his wife. "We will find her; we always find each other. I promise." He kissed her forehead then darted out of the room, telling Doc to keep an eye on her.

Even through her husband's reassurances, along with Doc's, Snow still sobbed and only saw the worst to come. There was only a small, small voice in her head telling her everything will be okay, she could barely here it.

"STOP!" The man yelled at the swan that was scurrying into the forest. This was one of his last two swans he couldn't possibly let it leave his little farm. The swan didn't seem to slow, and he huffed out in frustration as he continued to run on his old creaky knees. He was the apprentice to the great wizard Merlin, surely he could catch a runaway swan.

He ran for a few minutes more, then came to a screeching halt at the sight before him, the swan stood above a crying infant wrapped in a wool blanket. It was crying surprisingly soft for a new born, it must be very brave. He looked at the babe with pity in his eyes, who would leave a baby in the middle of a forest, the infinite forest for Christ sake!

"Sssh, it's all right, you are safe now" He said picking up the baby. He turned and walked away ignoring the swan that was waddling deeper into the forest. He looked down at the soft blanket to see a name sewn on the side of it. "Emma. What beautiful name." she looked back up at him pulling slightly at his beard, the crying was now replaced with curiosity. She was quite the radiant little thing, with those big green eyes and blond hair. "I shall bestow upon you, the name of Emma Swan, and this," He said waving his hand and making a silver necklace with a swan pendent on it appear, and slung it over her head. "So you will always remember who you are in your journey ahead. What journey you ask? Well I'm afraid I cannot care for you; I have great duty that I'm committed to, and you would always come second. No one deserves that. I must give you best your best chance, and hope you find loving parents." With that he finally came to his cabin he readied a carriage and headed into the nearest town that held an orphanage, one that would start the beginning of Emma Swan's story.
