Okay so this is my first fanfiction on here so I hope that you like it. Also I apologize in advance for any spelling or grammar errors because I really suck at spelling and pretty much anything I that has to do with English & Language Arts. Sorry.

Also please review I would love to hear what you think of the story. I don't mind negativity so just give me your honest opinion.

Oh and the first few chapters are going to be sort of slow mainly because I there to be a strong base for the story.

Thanks and hope you enjoy it.


Chapter 1

Graham was doing his normal nightly rounds near the town line. There was a terrible storm out and he wanted to hurry up and finish them before it got any worst. He was just about to head back into town when he saw a figure walking along the tree line of the woods. He pulls up beside them and rolls down the passenger window.

"Hey do you need any help?" He asks.

"No." Was the reply he got, and from the sound of it, the voice was a young girl. He didn't recognize the voice and was sure that she wasn't from Storybrook.

He kept alongside her going no faster than two mph. Suddenly she stopped walking and faced the police car bending down so she could see inside the window. "Are you just going to keep following me?" She asked in an annoyed tone.

"I'm just trying to make sure you're okay."

"Well I don't need any help, okay? I'm just passing through." She said more annoyed now then what she was only seconds ago.

"Look at least let me give you a ride into town and get you out of this rain." He says nodding his head towards the door handle.

She looks at him hesitantly for a moment before saying. "I think I'll just walk." But as she says the last word there is a flash of lightning accompanied by a loud crack of thunder which causes the girl to jump and makes her voice tremble, while a nervous look crosses her face only for a second.

Graham notices the look and offers again to drive her into town. Only this time she agrees and gets in the car quickly while Graham rolls up the window. The girl places her backpack down in between her legs and the door and takes off the hood of her jacket. And an awkward silence starts to set in.

"So" Graham says after a few moments. "What's your name, kid?" The girl glances at him and simply goes back to looking out the window without saying a word. "Okay… well I'm Graham by the way, I'm Storybrook's sheriff."

At this the girl rolls her eyes. "Really, I never would have guessed seeing as how you're driving a car with a light bar and the word 'sheriff' painted on it." She says sarcastically without ever adverting her gaze from all the darkness out the window.

Graham just shrugs it off because he saw that one coming as soon as he had said it. "So what are you doing out here this late at night in the middle of a thunder storm?" He asks trying to start up a conversation, but she just ignores him and continues to look out the window.


The rest of the car ride to the sheriff station was silent. Graham had realized that he wouldn't get anything out of the girl other than sarcastic remarks to something he said. But now that they were pulling into Graham's parking space outside the station he was now faced with the task of finding her somewhere to stay until they find out who she is and where she came from. He didn't want to just sick her in the inn because he didn't want her running off during the night or early morning. He wanted to make sure she got back where she belongs or at least with the people who are responsible for her. "Well here we are. I'll have to keep you here until I find you somewhere to stay until I get you back where you are supposed to be."

"I said I was just passing through." She fired back.

Graham sighed "Well I'm sorry but you can't be no more than 15 years old, I don't want you getting hurt without me trying to get you back to where you belong. Okay?"

"I'm 18. You can't keep me here."

"Well if that's the case just let me see your ID and you can go." Graham said with a pointed look. With a sigh the girl lets her head fall back onto the head rest. "That's what I thought."

They both get out of the car and walk into the station. Graham instructs her to sit in one of the empty chairs while he goes into his office to make a call. He shuts the glass door behind him and sits down at his desk and looks at his wristwatch that tells him it is a quarter after 1 in the morning. Who can I call? Graham thinks to himself. He didn't want to call Regina because…well she's just not really a kid-person. Let alone a teenager.

So he ended up calling the only person that he could think of that would possibly say yes.

"Hello?" A sleepy voice answers.

"Mary Margaret? It's Graham, sorry to wake you but I have a favor to ask of you."
