Prologue:
Nothing stood still, it was all happening too fast. The Charmings were locked in a room deep inside the castle, but it was all still going wrong. All around them, things were falling down or flying across the room as the walls shook ferociously. Regina, the Evil Queen was laying siege to their castle and there was little else they could do. It was prophecised for this to happen, she would invoke a curse, to send all the inhabitants of the Enchanted Forest to another realm. But not like this, thought Snow as her contractions grew stronger and more frequent. The princess' waters had broken and her daughter was to arrive any moment now.
"We have to get her to the other realm, now!" Prince Charming yelled, with a fierceness to combat even the powers of the Evil Queen's. From behind them, the Blue Fairy shook her head, walking toward them slowly.
"It cannot be done, she is too weak now. The journey could fatally injure her, or even kill her. We must alter the plan, to send just the girl in the tree. Snow can't go with her." she seemed sad to admit this, but there was obviously nothing she could do.
"But, what about Emma? She'll be alone. What will happen to her?" tears streaked down Snow's face as she cradled her stomach, giving an almighty push that furthered along the birth.
"Either way she will be alone. If you go with her, it will kill you. If you send only her, then at least she will be reunited with her when she's older. She'll still have a mother, just not one who's with her." Blue explained, rushing around to the front of Snow, who was extremely close to finally pushing the baby out. Once she had been born, both Snow White and Prince Charming kissed her on the head and wrapped her in her blanket, then sent her off to the other realm, just hoping for the day that they are reunited.
Just like before, there was an air of confusion, everything was off. Snow White's contractions still hadn't stopped. Blue eventually confirmed that there was another baby on the way. How they had not known they were having twins, the Charmings had no idea. All they knew is that one of their children would be a victim of the curse and one would be the one to break it. Just as Snow was getting ready to push, a cruel green smoke engulfed them all, ripping them from their home. It all went black.
A scream escaped Mary Margaret's lips as she pushed, Mother Superior spoke soothing words, of how amazingly she was doing. It was all a blur, she couldn't exactly remember anything that brought her to this moment, but she was in the middle of bringing another life into this world. Finally, with one big push, an innocent squeal of life could be heard by both Mary Margaret and Mother Superior, a pink, fleshy mass. Letting out a sigh of relief, the new mother smiled, leaning back into the hospital pillow.
"Ms Blanchard, you have a beautiful baby girl. What are you going to call her?" Mother Superior brought the bundle round to Mary Margaret, who held her close to her, a natural grin split across her face.
"Ava. I'm not sure why, but the name just speaks to me. Ava Blanchard." she spoke, a strong, unfaltering look of pride. A confused look crossed Mother Superior's face, "I'm not sure who the father is. But, can we keep that just between us?"
"Of course, Ms Blanchard."
