It was just another day in Storybrooke Maine when Emma Swan was making her move to Storybrooke, Maine. She had been in the foster system for some time, and so was her sister Mary Margaret but she got adopted by a lovely couple in Maine. Emma was not so lucky because she was in a bad foster home, but Leo and Ava the couple who adopted Mary thought that it was wrong to have the two separated. Emma couldn't be happier to see her sister again, but some time had passed since the two had seen each other. Emma was now sixteen years old, and Mary was eighteen so it had been a couple of years since they had been together.

Mary excited to see Emma again, was in her house getting things ready for her sister. She knew that Emma had it rough but she didn't know how rought it had actually been for her younger sister. Mary got lucky with Leo and Ava because they were the perfect parents, and she was glad that she got to stay with them. When she told her parents about Emma they were unaware Mary even had a sister because the agency didn't talk about it. Usually siblings weren't separated, but they had given Emma to a family and that left Mary alone. Once they found that out they did all they could to get Emma to live with them as well, and they succeeded.

Emma got out of the car with her social worker and headed for the door of the beautiful mansion they pulled up to. The social worker Maria knocked on the door and waited for an answer. A young woman with dark black hair, and fair skin opened the door and Emma smiled brightly. She moved past Maria and hugged her sister tightly and they both started to cry tears of joy together.

Ava and Leo talked to Maria as the girls were in the kitchen talking about how things were in that house. Emma didn't know what to expect because of what she had been through the past couple of years, and that was something she was not looking forward to having them find out. She already felt different with the way Ava and Leo looked at her, and the way they talked to her. Mary was telling Emma all about things so far and how much she enjoyed living there.

"So a lot of things we have to catch up on, but something I am really curious about is do you have some boyfriend who is going to come chasing after you?" Mary asked

"No, no boyfriend to worry about. I umm... I try not to get involved with guys. What about you sis? Any boyfriend?" Emma asked

"Yeah there is someone I have been with for a while. His name is David, and he is gorgeous, and smart, funny, sweet, and just an amazing guy. You'll like him." Mary said

"That's great. I am glad for you, and thank you for getting your parents to adopt me too. I know it must not have been easy." Emma said

"They didn't know about you until I told them I missed you. The agency never informed them that we were sisters because they had already sent you away. They fought for you Emma, and I know that things weren't easy for you, but they are loving people and they are so excited to have you here. They even set up a room for you, they were waiting to decorate the room till you got here. There is brand new furniture, and everything there for you all ready." Mary said

"Wow. I don't know what to say." Emma said

Emma just hugged her sister tightly as they heard Maria calling Emma into the room. Maria was leaving since Leo and Ava signed all the papers and had made it official by adopting Emma. Once she was gone Emma smiled at Ava and Leo couldn't wait to get to know this new girl in their lives. They sat down in the living room and just stared in silence for a while before Ava started to speak.

"I don't know if Mary has told you but we have a room set up for you. We had new furniture brought in, and we can go shopping later for things to make it yours ." Ava said

"Yeah she told me. Thank you so much for all of this, I have been bounced around a bit lately. I am not used to people like you who actually care about someone other than themselves." Emma said a bit sadly

"Well we are really glad that you are here with us now. We are going to treat you like our own child and love you just like our own." Ava said

"It's nice to have a place where you belong." Emma said

"Mary why don't you show Emma up to her new room? We will make some breakfast then we can get to shopping. Emma do you have any request for breakfast?" Leo asked

"I've always liked french toast." Emma said

"French toast it is then." Leo said

Emma smiled and when she got up she hugged Ava and Leo, and it felt good to hug them. She went upstairs the huge house with her sister, and picked up the small bag she had with her. Mary showed her to her room which was right next to hers, and Emma was so amazed by how much space she had in here.

"Wow this room is so huge. This room alone was bigger than the last place I lived." Emma said

"Well I am glad you like it. My room is right next door, and I just know that you will love it here." Mary said

Emma sat on the bed that sat in the middle of the room, and smiled at her sister. she had the hugest grin on her face.

"I'm really glad that I am here Mary." Emma said

"I'm glad that you are here too. We are going to get you registered for school on Monday. You will be going to Storybrooke High, it is a good school. Some of the teachers are a bit annoying but what would you expect?" Mary joked

"Wow I haven't been to school in a while. The last couple house's I was in they didn't think it was important. I tried to home school myself as best I could, but it will be nice to get back into a real school." Emma said

"You never have to worry again Emma, I want you to know that. You will be happy here and you can live your life here." Mary said

"I know that, and I am glad that I can finally do that. So anybody I should keep an eye out for? I mean this is a small town but there must be someone I should stay away from. Or at least keep an eye out for?" Emma asked

"Not really, there are not too many bad seeds here in Storybrooke. There are some people who just are bad news. Cora Mills is one you should steer clear of, her daughter Regina is not bad at all she is a good friend but Cora makes it hard for her to keep friends. Colin Gold is not a good person at all, he has a son Richard Gold who keeps to himself most of the time. Richard isn't one to make contact with other people." Mary said

"Oh wow how old is Richard?" Emma asked

"He's my age, eighteen. He had a relationship with this girl Milah and she got pregnant, his father went ballistic when he found out. He told Richard that he had to take that child away from Milah no mater what it took. Richard didn't want to do that because he really did care for Milah a great deal, but his father wouldn't have that. The next thing any of us knew Milah was leaving town with her new boyfriend telling Richard good luck with the baby." Mary explained

"Oh my gosh that is horrible. Wow a lot of drama from a small town." Emma said

"You have no idea." Mary said

Emma and Mary kept talking on and on until they heard that breakfast was ready. Emma was so pleased to see all the food that they had made, and she was really starting to think she was going to like it here. During breakfast they were talking and getting to know each other, and they all were having a nice time. After breakfast they went out shopping for a bit of things Emma would need for school, and they were having a great time.

Emma got new clothes, shoes, backpack, and supplies. She also got some books and posters to put up in her room, and she couldn't be more pleased. Emma went to sleep that night excited about starting her new life in Storybrooke.
