Beatrice Cahill didn't believe in fairy tales, and she certainly didn't believe in Stephen King novels about creepy Maine towns, no matter what anyone else said about her "charming" or "creepy" choice of a vacation destination. Maine was a perfectly find place for a holiday. Quiet. Just what she needed, having to deal with those troublesome children.
"We should definitely pick a town with a candy store." As if he knew what she was thinking, her nephew had to demonstrate how right she was. He was always one to have his priorities straight.
"No," she snapped. "The purpose of this trip is to get you away from all that garbage your au pair has been allowing to corrupt you. You should be taking advantage of the wholesome setting, not stuffing your faces with sugar." She turned around to glare at the two children in the back of the car. Amy shrunk in her seat.
"A-A-Aunt B-" she stammered. Her warning died before she complete it, though, as the car slammed into a large sign that, which cheerfully went right on displaying its friendly message:
"Welcome to Storybrooke."
A/N: This is pre-Emma Storybrooke, and I'm going with the explanation that the Cahills can get into Storybrooke because they're fictional characters, like Frankenstein or the Mad Hatter. I know this explanation might not necessarily fly on the show, so just consider this an AU if you don't consider it canon-compliant. I just really wanted to see the Cahills interacting with Storybrooke residents, and no one else was writing it, so I did. If you think this type of crossover should be done differently, I'm begging you to try it. I just really want a 39 Clues/Once Upon a Time crossover.
Also, feel free to request that certain characters be featured! There are certain characters that I want to get to first, but after that the Cahills can bump into anybody!
