"Emma?" Killian knocked soft against the half open door of the nursery before poking his head trough. He looked around the room until he found his wife sitting in a chair before the window with their new born daughter in her arms. His whole body relaxed at the sight of them. He didn't know how he got so lucky. After centuries living alone, full of pain and emptiness he finely found his happy ending.

He slowly walked over to them as he heard Emma sing a sweet lullaby to their daughter. At the sound of his footsteps she looked up and gave him a small sad smile. Something was bothering her. "Love, what's wrong?" he asked gently as he came to stand beside her.

Emma let out a sigh, "ever since the war against Camelot I can't seem to shake off this feeling that it isn't over yet, that Arthur is planning something to get his revenge for destroying his kingdom."

"You don't need to worry, love. The war is over, Arthur is banished and we have our beautiful daughter to focus on right now."

"You're right," she stood up and gave him their daughter, "thank you, Killian. You always know how to make me feel better."

He placed a kiss on her forehead before looking down at their little bundle of joy. If anyone ever told him that one day he would stand here, in a castle, married to the crown princess, his True Love and with his perfect daughter in his arms he would probably have snort at the idea or laugh like it was some kind of stupid joke. But now, now Killian Jones was the happiest man alive.

"Sophia! Come down immediately!"

Sophia looked up from her sketchbook. She let out a sigh before standing up. She put her sketchbook back in her bag. She would be leaving soon, she knew she would. This family kept her for a month, which was a surprise, no one kept her longer than 2 weeks. Everyone thought she was crazy because she was 'obsessed' –as they called it- with fairy tales. She knew that she was too old for fairy tales, tomorrow she would turn 16, but somehow she always felt connected to them, she later discovered why after she found it. But she always could escape through them, to another world where she was free, free from her terrible life as an orphan.

She walked out of her small room, down the stairs and into the living room. She looked down at her feet, she knew what came next. The couple sat on the couch. The TV was playing some kind of movie The woman looked up from the movie and at her in disapproval, just because she was different. Her husband didn't even look up as he said to her, "we're bringing you back tomorrow so pack your bag, be ready in time. We leave tomorrow at 9 am, the sooner the better."

He waved a hand in dismissal. Sophia walked silently to her room again. A small smile creeped up her face as she thought about her plan, they wouldn't even care if she was gone by tomorrow morning. When she was about 10 she learned that no one in this world would care for her, no one except her parents of course. Yes, they send her away but not by choice. A book magically appeared in her bag one day. A book of fairy tales, but not the Disney type. The book was called 'Once Upon A Time' and told her many stories. Stories that gave her hope. Her favourite was always the story of her parents. The story of the Pirate and the Princess.

How did she know this where her parents? Because the story said so. It was that simple. She was found on the docks when she was just a week or two old. On her baby blanked was a label with her name: Sophia Jones. Since than it always has been going from foster home to foster home, but tonight it would end. As soon as she leaned the truth she made a promise to herself and her parents that she would come and find them when she tuned sixteen.

So as she got all her belongings in her bag, she put on her jacked and silently opened the window. She has been planning this for weeks now. Silently she climbed down the brick wall of the house. As soon as her shoes hit the ground she ran, ran as fast as she could, because she would find them, she would always find them.

"Killian?" Emma said in a small voice as she stood before the window. Killian sat up in their bed and rubbed his tired eyes.

"What is it, love?" he said, voice thick with sleep. Emma looked at him with big, scared eyes and he immediately jumped out of bed to stand next to her, trying to see what made her so scared. As he approached the window he saw it, the thick, purple smoke heading their way. "Bloody Hell."

One second Emma was watching as the smoke came closer and the next she was rushing to the nursery, Killian right behind her. On the way out of the room he had grabbed his belt with his sword attached to it. In the hallway they almost bumped in Snow White and King David.

"Emma!" yelled her father as she ran past them, "get Sophia and come to the dining hall!"

A few moments later she had Sophia in her arms, Killian at her side and her parents standing in front of her.

"We have a way to escape the curse," said Snow as she show Emma and Killian the magic bean in her hand, "we can escape the curse and find a way to free our kingdom in the other world."

"How do you know about this 'curse'?" Emma asked as she kept a firm but gentle hold on her daughter.

"Before we made peace with Regina she wanted to cast it, but changed her mind after knowing the price," her father explained, "after Arthurs attack it was gone but didn't think any of it. It appears that Arthur stole it and is using it as revenge or something."

"That is correct," a voice came from behind them, "as revenge and to create a new Camelot, in a new world with a fresh start for everyone."

Everyone turned to face Arthur. Killian and David pulled their swords from their scabbards and took a few steps forward, "what do you mean 'a fresh start for everyone'?" Killian asked, the anger clear in his voice.

"Well that's the revenge part, you see, in this new land no one -except me and some of the people on my good side- has a happy ending and of course they won't remember who they really are." Arthur smiled as he saw the horror in everyone faces, " You may have won the battle, but I have won the war."

Snow held the magic bean firm in her hand behind he back as she walked a few steps back. Emma followed her mother's lead and also took a few steps back. Killian and David focused on Arthur but also kept an eye on their wife's. However, Arthur noticed Emma and Snow's strange behaver and called his guards in the room to grab Snow and Emma.

"GO!" Killian and David shouted in unison as they attacked Arthurs guards. Snow was about to throw the magic bean when the windows shredded and purple smoke came through. As Snow and Emma where pushed to the ground by an strong wind and little baby Sophia torn out of her mother's grip, just like the bean in Snow's hand. The bean opened a portal just a pew foot away from the crying Sophia.

"SOPHIA!" Emma yelled as she sat up and saw her baby girl go through the portal. Killian turned and saw with horror as the portal closed and their daughter was no were to be found. He hit the last guard unconscious and rushed to Emma's side as she let out a sob.

"Shh... love, it will be okey, she'll find us, she'll save us." Killian held her close to his body as they sat in the floor. He barely contained his own sobs as he tried to sooth Emma. Emma buried her face in Killian chest as she cried over their lost daughter. She knew their daughter would survive and find them because the Jones where survivors and the Charming's always found each other, but still it didn't sooth the heartbreak from a mother who just lost her child. Her last thought where about her daughter before the thick, purple smoke surrounded them.
