It was was the worst storm Storybrooke had ever seen since Regina had cast the curse 9 1/2 years ago and a 9 year old blonde was running through the streets and heading for the forest but she wasn't just running she looked as though the devil himself was after her.

Sheriff Graham was doing a routine check of the forest to make sure none of the towns people were setting animal traps when the blonde hurricane ploughed into him, he grabbed ahold of her as she struggled.

"Let me go! Please you have to let me go!" The girl practically screeched.

"Hang on now, I won't hurt you."

When the girl looked up Graham saw bruises covering the girls face plus a large scar that looked like someone had either poured or thrown acid on the girls face.

She continued to struggle against his strong but gentle grip, so he spun her around so her back was against his chest and he wrapped his arms around the girls small frame knowing that if she continued to struggle like she was she'd eventually tire herself out.

20 minutes later the frightened child had stopped struggling.

"Are you calm now whirlwind?" Asked the sheriff with a slight amused chuckle at his nickname.

The exhausted girl nodded.

"What's your name?"

"Emma, Emma Swan." Came the girls reply in between her soft crying.

After Graham was sure that this strangely intriguing girl was not going to take off her released his embrace and they sat down on a fallen tree to talk.

"So you want to tell me what or who you're running from?"

"My foster parents they're horrible."

"Did they give you those bruises and scar on your face?"

"She did those what he did was much worse."

Her small hands went to her stomach which Graham realised was now rather big, and that's when it hit him like a sack of raw spuds this little girl was pregnant.

"How is it possible for you to be pregnant, you only a child?"

"I have a rare condition my reproductive organs were fully mature by the time I was 6 and because his wife would let him have sex with her and have a baby when he found out that I was fertile at my young age he decided to kill two birds with one stone he took my innocence and gained a baby. I knew that if it turns out to be a girl I couldn't let him get his hands on her so I ran." Emma explained.

After a large amount of coaxing Graham finally got Emma to agree to come with him to the diner to have something to eat, there they ran into Regina Mills the mayor of Storybrooke.

"Evening sheriff, and who is your young friend?" She said while looking at the blonde she was completely enchanted by this small girl and she didn't know why.

"This is Emma I found her in the forest... Actually she more or less slammed into me."

Graham told Emma to wait there while he talked to Regina in private.

"She ran away from her foster home and with good reason she was in a bad situation. Did you notice the scar and bruises on her face?"

"Yes how'd that happen?"

"Her foster mother did that, but it's her foster dad that was worse."

Regina was confused about what Graham could mean by that.

"What do you mean that the foster father was worse?"

"Look at her stomach see how big it is she's 8 months pregnant or maybe 9."

"How does something like that happen to a child?" Regina could not understand how a child could get pregnant.

As Graham explained to Regina what Emma had told him Emma thought that they were talking about sending her back there and so she ran heading back into the forest.

The waitress Ruby came of the the mayor and sheriff.

"Sheriff that young girl you were with..."

"Yes?"

"She made like a personality and split."

"WHAT!"

"Yeah she ran right out the door headed for the forest."
