This used to be my friend's account but she didn't felt like writing stories anymore so she gave it to me (since she knew how I wanted to write one). This is my first story so please be patient with me if there are any mistakes.

I don't owe any of the characters in Once Upon A Time except for my two OCs (Dahlia Maeve and Sam).

Here is the first chapter. Hope you enjoy!

Every step she took just made her more anxious. Dahlia Maeve ran her fingers through her long dark raven hair. Not only her half-sister, Snow White, is pregnant and her mother, the Evil Queen, was coming for snow and Charming. Dahlia stopped walking and glanced down at her golden necklace. The sixteen year old smiled sadly as she clutched the charm. It was a tree with a circle around it.

It used to belong to her mother. Dahlia put her hand down and continued walking down the stone hallway. She could see the light from the sun fading away, indicating that the sun was setting. Another day that her mother didn't attack them. The villagers in the enchanted forest had called Dahlia's mother the 'Evil Queen' ever since her sister became a bandit.

Dahlia hated, still does, when the people call her mother that. Her mother may have done bad things but Dahlia never witness any of that. Nor did her mother ever treat her badly. On the contrary, her mother did everything possible to keep her from harm's way. The teenager missed her mother dearly and her grandfather, Henry. She still remembers the last time she saw them…when the Queen was banished from the kingdom.

**Flashback**

"Have you talked to my mom yet?" Dahlia glanced to her grandfather. They were both walking down a hallway, near to were her mother was been kept. "Snow has forbid me to see her and the guards won't let me even come near."

The older man sighed and wrapped arm around his granddaughter. "Your mother wishes to see you as well. She is afraid that your thoughts on her have changed since she has been captured."

"They haven't and they never will. She's my mom and I love her."

"And she loves you too…more than life."

Dahlia smiled slightly but it fell when she heard some commotion from the tower her mother was been kept. She rushed toward the noise with her grandfather following behind. The teen noticed her sister walking down the stairs with some guards, followed by Charming and her mother…who was been led by two guards gripping her arms.

"Snow!" Dahlia shouted as she approached her sister. Her eyes glanced at her mother before flicking back to her sister. "What's going on? Where are you taking my mom?"

"She's banished from the kingdom," Charming coldly said.

"What?" Dahlia and Henry said.

Snow sighed and grasped her sister's hand. "I'm sorry Dahlia. But it's the only way she won't harm anyone else."

"Do I get to—"

"No," Snow said, firmly. "You will be staying with me."

"What!?" Regina growled, taking a step towards Snow white but the guards pull her back. "She is my daughter!"

"And she is my sister!" Snow shouted. "I will not let you harm her in any way!"

"How dare do you even consider that I will do any kind of damage to my daughter. My flesh and blood," Regina turned to look at her daughter. All of her anger disappeared and affection showed on her face. "She is the reason why I kept fighting when I was married to your father."

Dahlia ran to her mother, missing the guards and Charming trying to get her. She wrapped her arms around her mother's waist and closed her eyes. Her mother still smelled of apples. Something that Dahlia always felt comfort whenever she hugged her mother. It was the smell of home. She felt her mom hug her back and kissing her temple.

"My little light," Regina whispered in her daughter's ear. "I won't let them take you away from me."

The teen felt someone gripping the back of her red blouse, pulling her out of her mother's embrace. "Let me go!" Dahlia struggled against whoever was taking her away from her mother. "I want to go with her!"

"Dahlia calm down," Charming whispered against her ear. "I know that this is difficult for you but we are doing this for your own good."

"Get your hands off her!" Regina yelled at Charming. "If you harm her in away way I swear that I—"

"You can't harm us," Snow said. "And we will keep Dahlia safe from your clutches. You will never see her again."

Regina glared at Snow. "We will see about that."

Having enough of the Evil Queen, Charming commanded the guards. "Take her out of this kingdom. Make sure she doesn't enter again." He struggled to keep from Dahlia getting out of his arms. He will make sure that Snow's sister will be safe from Regina.

"No please!" Dahlia tried to take a step towards her mother, who the guards were also struggling to make her walk. "Snow! Please let me leave with her. Please!"

Snow cupped her sister's face. "I know that Regina loves you but I can't let you leave with her. She may be your mother but she is also the Evil Queen. And I can't risk the lives of the people in this kingdom while your mother is here."

"You don't know her like I do."

"I gave her a test just a few minutes ago in the tower. She failed. That's why I'm banishing her," Snow explained. "I would have let her stay if she passed but she didn't. She will not hesitate to harm someone again."

Dahlia felt tears run down her face. She looked pass her sister's shoulder and saw her mother been almost at the end of the hallway with her grandfather beside her. She could see the sorrow and anger in her mother's face.

"I will get you back my Dahlia," Regina shouted. "Whatever it takes…I will come back for you."

**End flashback**

Dahlia has been able to see a crow every once in a while she would get a letter from her mother. A crow would tap on her window at night and would leave the message on her nightstand before flying off into the dark night sky. The teen would keep the letters hidden under her bead in a small box.

She heard the bells ring and seconds later commotion everywhere. Her mother was attacking the kingdom. Dahlia rushed through the halls to her bedroom. She walked to her closet and grabbed her bow and arrows. She was startled when she heard her bedroom doors bang open. She sighed in relief when she noticed it was Sam, Red's seventeen year old brother.

"I know!" Dahlia said, walking out of her bedroom with Sam behind.

Sam grasped her arm to stop her. His green eyes were wide with surprise. "Where do you think you are going?!"

"What does it look like I'm doing," Dahlia pulled her arm from his grasp. "I will slow my mother's guards so my sister will have time to get away in the wardrobe."

"Your sister is in labor!" Sam shouted, pushing his dark brown hair from his eyes. His shoulder length hair always tempted Dahlia to cut it.

"She's having the baby?" Dahlia's eyes widen in shock. "Take me to her!"

"That's why I'm here for. Come one!"

Sam grasped Dahlia's hand that wasn't holding her bow and they both rushed down the hallways. They managed to slip past the Evil Queen's guards and made it to Snow and Charming's bedroom. Upon entering the room, Snow let out a painful scream.

"Snow!"

"Dahlia!"

The teen dropped her bow and arrows and rushed to her sister's side. Snow immediately clutched her hand and Dahlia bit down on her lip to stop from letting out a yelp. Her sister had a good grip on her hand.

"Sam told me about you been in labor," Dahlia smiled at her sister.

Snow returned the smile even if it was painful. "I'm glad that you are here."

"Are any guards coming towards us?" Charming asked Dahlia.

"So far no. They are in other parts of the castle but that can change soon."

Charming nodded and went to pick up Snow. "We must—"

"It's too late for that," Doc said. "She is far too long and the baby will come in any second."

"I can buy you some time with the guards," Sam said.

"Thank you," Charming nodded at him.

Sam's eyes turned gold and he ran out of the bedroom. They can all hear his howl and his paws running away from the door.

"Snow, you have to start pushing," Doc said, moving at the end of the bed.

"I don't think I can," Snow panted.

Dahlia brushed a strand of hair from her sister's face. "You must. She is the savor."

"Listen to your sister, Snow," Charming urgently said. "We have to get Emma to safety before they come for her."

Snow slowly nodded and started to push. She didn't know how long she kept pushing and pushing but soon they all heard a cry. Charming went towards Doc while Dahlia helped her sister rest against the pillows.

Charming tucked Emma in the blanket that Granny had finished knitting weeks ago. He walked towards Snow again and let her hold their baby. Dahlia smiled at seeing her newborn niece. She could see Charming's jawline on the baby but Snow's nose.

"She's definitely your kid," Dahlia joked at Charming.

He laughed lightly. "Yeah she is."

"Take her to the magic wardrobe," Snow glanced up at Charming. "Make sure she gets through."

Charming kissed Snow one last time before gently cradling Emma in his arms. Snow kissed her baby's forehead one last time before she gave Charming a gentle push.

"I'll come back for you," Charming said to Snow. He glanced at Dahlia before he left the room. "Keep her safe."

"Of course."

Once he left the room, Snow began to cry. Dahlia hugged her sister and rubbed her back in comfort. Snow held on to the teen as if her life depended on it. Dahlia felt her shirt get wet but she could care less about that right now. She sat there quietly for minutes until Snow's crying turned to sniffles.

"It's going to be okay Snow," Dahlia winced as her sister clutched to her. She ignored Snow's nails digging to her arms. "Emma is going to be safe. Charming is going to make sure of that."

Snow nodded before whipping the tears away. "Help me stand up."

"What?"

"Take me to Charming. I need to see that my baby made it through the wardrobe."

Dahlia hesitated but she knew that her sister will go either way. She carefully helped Snow out of the bed and wrapped an arm around her waist. "Put most of your weight on me. You are still tired from giving birth."

"Let's just hope we don't run into any of your mother's guards," Snow winced, walking slowly out of the room with her sister's help.

"Most of them are idiots," Dahlia snorted. "How do you think I manage to help you when you were a bandit?"

Snow let out a small quiet laugh. "Their lack of intelligence helped me escape multiple times from their clutches."

They walked the rest of the way in silence, in case if any guards were near. Dahlia heard Red's and Sam's howls not far from them. They saw the Queen's guards dead on the floor as well as Snow's guards. Soon they both approached Emma's nursery. Dahlia was the first to noticed Charming.

"Charming!" Snow yelled, letting go of Dahlia and limped to her husband. "Please no!"

Dahlia went to the wardrobe, listening to her sister telling Charming to wake up and come back to her. She opened the two wooden doors and laughed lightly when she saw it was empty.

"She made it," Dahlia said in relief. She moved to the side so her sister could see. "Emma is safe."

Snow looked down at her husband's unconscious face. "We did it. Our daughter is safe." Snow's groaned in pain and shut her eyes close.

"Snow!" Dahlia rushed to her sister's side. She sat next to her and grabbed Snow's arms. "You must not force yourself too much."

High heels were heard from the hallway. Dahlia knew that her mother was coming towards the room. She glanced at Snow and saw her still looking at Charming. Regina walked in the nursery and saw Snow holding Charming.

"Don't worry. You will soon forget all about him," Regina smirked at her stepdaughter.

"Why are you doing this?" Snow held Charming closer to her even if she starting to feel very tired.

Regina's eyes connected with her daughter's for a second before turning to glare at Snow. "Because I deserve my happy ending."

Snow leaned against her younger sister. Dahlia saw the exhaustion on Snow's face and wrapped and arm around her. She looked up at her mother. It was a bittersweet moment for her. She had wanted to see her mother for months but not like this. Not as the Evil Queen as everyone said.

"Stop the curse mom. I know you can."

Guards rushed into the nursery as well, distracting Regina for a second. "Where is the child?"

"Gone, your majesty," one of the guards nervously said.

"Keep looking for her!"

The guards nodded and ran out of the nursery as quickly as possible.

"You will lose, Regina," Snow said, tiredly. "Good always wins."

"We will see about that."

The women heard the ceiling crumbling and seconds later it was torn off. Gray smoke almost black started to tear off the room.

Dahlia glanced up at and saw how rapidly the smoke was moving. She felt someone touch her cheek and her eyes found dark brown. She saw the victorious smile on her mother's face. "We will soon be together. And nothing will separate us ever again, my child."

"You didn't have to do this," Dahlia whispered to her mother. Her hold tightened on Snow when she felt her older sister lean heavily against her. "Please make it stop."

"I can't." Regina stood up straight and glanced up.

"MOM!" Dahlia yelled over the howling wind and thunder. "Please!"

But Regina wasn't listening. She was busy talking about her victory and looking at the smoke in amazement.

Snow turned her head slightly and whispered in her sister's ear, "Don't leave me."

"I will stay with you," Dahlia vowed. She glanced up at her mother, who was staring at her with sadness. "I love you mom...no matter what."

The dark grey smoke covered them up before Regina could say 'I love you too' to her daughter.
