NOTES: Hello OUAT FANS! My goodness it's been a very long time. Lets cut a super long intro short and hop right into a brand new chapter of The Next Saviour, an OUAT based story, telling my vision of Hook and Emma's daughter.
"Where did she go?" Lily asked.
Killian, Lily, my parents, Regina, Henry and I ran down the stairs from my parents apartment, having seen the Dark One version of our unborn daughter disappear into a puff of black smoke.
"Where does every Villain in this town go who wants a big showdown?" Commented Regina.
"The clocktower," I nodded at her.
5 minutes later, we all halted at a dark figure standing right in front of the library.
"Hey! Bitch Queen!" I yelled.
"Emma! She's your daughter!" my Mum shouted.
"She's a Dark One!"
"Very true Mother, however, I do care about you, and my older brother, and my lovely grandparents, and, well, the former Queen,"
"Why you little-," Regina raises her hand, small red sparks flickering from her palm.
"Regina no!" A fireball shot out of her skin, flying at the speed of light.
Lily caught the fire in her hand, we watched in shock as it turned to smoke.
"Your not serious, that has to be the most basic spell there. Were you not trained by a Dark One yourself Regina, shouldn't you know better than to try and fight one?"
The fire reappeared as Lily there the ball back. Just before it could hit Regina, a thick wooden staff with a white crystal in the middle. The fireball melted into the crystal.
My eyes shifted to my Saviour of a daughter.
"Since when do you have a staff like Gandalf?"
"I don't know who that is, but no one hurts my Mother,"
"Well, well, look at me, I really do have a better half,"
"You saw me, before you, teleported," the Saviour scoffed.
The Dark One took a step forward as the Saviour shielded us with her staff.
"Don't come any closer,"
"We're from the same time, we know the same spells, the same gifts,"
"You are nothing like me!"
"I am your Queen!"
"I will never serve you. And you will not hurt my family. Tell me, how in the hell did there come to be two versions of us?"
The Dark One smiled.
"Rumplestilzskin,"
"Of course," I muttered under my breath.
"Tell me more," the Saviour walked towards her darker self.
"It's complicated, but it's happened before. You came to be , the Saviour, protector of the Realms. Eventually, Rumple couldn't handle his power as the, current Dark One, he needed to be rid of that dagger, which I believe still exists today. He enlisted you to help him, whatever the risk. The darkness became too strong, it whispered for ages in his ear. Alone, the darkness gained strength, and released itself from the dagger. Rumple tried to re tether to himself, but he too late. The darkness surrounded you. Earlier you had been practising a duplicating spell, a flask Rumple took long ago from a Dr Hyde. The spell was still fresh on your skin from hours ago, it backfired against the darkness, and did something no Witch or Wizard has ever seen. The darkness strengthened your magic, creating a Dark One out of you. I was created by your light magic, funny that,"
"You said it's happened before?"
"More like after. Our Mother had a run in with the darkness, not a pretty tale,"
Lily turned to me.
"You were a Dark One,"
"Not important."
"Listen, if you destroy me, it'll be for nothing,"
"I created you on accident,"
"Maybe, maybe not,"
The Dark One's eyes turned black as she came charging at us. The Saviour shot her staff out, the wood meeting the silver edge of a sword that appeared in the Dark One's hand. For a long moment, the witch's weapons clashed in fury. The Saviour waved her magical staff in the air, twirling around as she knelt in front of the Dark One, the shimmering crystal stabbing the Dark One in the stomach.
The Dark One gassed, her eyes watering.
"You were created from pain, from anger, from darkness. Your darkness killed my parents. But I have them once more, and you will not take them again,"
Lily pulled the staff out, the crystal gleaming from within the Dark One. The vengeful Queen screamed as the crystal shone bright, blinding us from it's victim. As the light disappeared, so did the Dark One.
"Lily?"
The Saviour now wore a simple grey t shirt, with jeans and a black leather jacket, she looked up with piercing blue eyes, just like Killian's.
"What happened?" Asked Regina.
"It must've been some glamour spell, the Dark One hit me ages ago,"
"Whats going on?" I laughed.
"I'm different, I'm not Lily,"
"Who are you?" Asked Henry.
"You know, you all know,"
My brow furrowed.
"I only have a moment, then I must return to the future, but you two?"
The girl looked at Killian and I.
"Hook, Emma, I'm your real daughter,"
Killian and I looked at each other, smiled, and looked back at her.
"My name is Hope,"
