Time Period: A Flashback
Place: A Hospital Delivery Room
Event: Ellie's birth
Emma's p.o.v
Solemn, a nurse hands me a baby whose gender is a mystery. A blanket is covering the
baby's face. She nor the doctor say anything. Killian, Henry, and I are appalled by their
actions. We discover the baby is a girl that has Down Syndrome. I, personally, cry a mixture
of happy and sad tears.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The Jones' house-Ellie's nursery
Panicky, Killian runs into the nursery. "I heard Ellie crying over the baby monitor. I assumed
something was wrong" Killian explains. "My singing calmed her down. All is well for now"
I assure my husband.
Time Period: A Flashback
Place: Avalon
Regina's p.o.v
"I love you" Rumple tells our infant daughter who is sitting in a highchair. "Avalon can't hear you. She
is a deafmute" I remind him. "I understand" my husband sighs returning to his breakfast. There is a
hint of sadness in his pretty brown eyes. "Please don't stop making Ava happy. That's how she
knows you love her" I encourage him.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: Regina and Robin's house
Event: A party for Blossom, Levi, and Ellie
Regina's p.o.v
I appreciate Rumple and his family attending the party, but I am more interested in Emma and her
family. I have a special place in my heart for Ellie. Ellie has Down Syndrome.
Time Period: Storybrooke in an alternate universe
Scenario: Regina has a bar called Roni. Roni is also the name of Regina's new identity.
Avalon's p.o.v
She doesn't remember who she is. My presence restores some of her memories. Her eyes lite up
over the thought I am her daughter. While cleaning tables, a cool idea pops into my head. "You
should have live entertainment" I suggest to my mom. "I love your idea, but I don't know any famous
singers or musicians" my mom stresses. "I am a pianist. How about giving me a chance?" Spirit's
voice breaks through. "You look very familiar" my mom points out. "Regina" Emma chimes in.
"Emma" my mom's voice trails off.
Regina aka Roni's p.o.v.
"Regina" a male voice whispers behind me. I turn around and a handsome gentleman is sitting
down at the bar. He looks familiar, but I can't remember his name. "Regina who?" I respond back
to him. "Regina who" he chuckles. "My name is Roni" I remind him.
Rumple's p.o.v
"Please excuse mom's behavior. She is not well at all" pardons Avalon. "The curse has surely
impacted her memory" I observe. Distraught, Killian storms into the building. Spirit's lovely
piano playing stops suddenly. "Killian, what has caused you so much pain and sorrow?" Emma
inquires. "Emma, I am here to take you home. Ellie is not well at all. Our daughter needs you asap"
Hook informs her.
Emma's p.o.v (as she juggles both the needs of Ellie and Regina)
Slowly slipping away, she doesn't deserve this fate. Holding onto pieces of an once normal thriving
life, your delicate state of mind. One sad solemn birthday wish, unheard of dark secret anguish,
nobody's favorite carnival ride. Going more lower and deeper into that rabbit hole, she doesn't
deserve this fate. She surrenders anyway.
Spirit's p.o.v
"Avalon said you are a healer. Heal your sister" mom demands dragging me over to Ellie's sickbed.
"I have healed myself. This is my first time healing someone else" I notify her. "What can possibly
go wrong?" She wonders. "I might die in the process of saving Ellie" I panic. "Sometimes you may
to sacrifice yourself for those you love" Dad adds. Consequently, my worst fear does become a
reality. Ellie is healthy and alive, but my body is shutting down. I am completely drained out.
I march into the street and simply faint.
Killian's p.o.v
I notice my teenage daughter laying in the street. I run out of the house and rescue her before a car
comes. She prefers the grass over a nice warm bed. Butterflies gather around her.
Time Period: A Flashback
Killian's p.o.v
Tonight is beautiful and perfect especially for visiting my beloved. Quietly and unnoticeably, I climb
the ladder leading into her bedroom. I crawl into the bed and wrap my arms around her stomach.
"Hello, Killian" sobbing heavily, Emma acknowledges me. "You must've received and read my
message about Spirit's death. An Ogre killed our daughter. I tried to save her" I refresh her memory.
Emma doesn't know what to say so she just absorbs my body heat.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Killian's p.o.v
Broken wide open like a human heart, the sky has started to darken. We experience three hours
without the sun. This is all Spirit's doing. Who knew her sacrifice and death could weigh so heavy?
Roni aka Regina's p.o.v
Depressed, Ava sits at a table with her face buried in her hands. "Whatever happened to that girl
who played the piano?" I wonder. "Her name was Spirit. Spirit was Emma and Killian's
daughter. I wanted her to restore your memories. She used her power to save Ellie instead"
Ava recounts crying. I embrace Ava as a way to express my love. Rumple's presence cheers her
up too.
Belle's p.o.v
"How are Regina and Avalon doing?" I ask Rumple when he enters the front door. "They are alright"
he smirks holding Blossom. Gideon remains beside himself. "Since Spirit is immortal, there is
a chance that she can be resurrected" I wish. Gideon and Rumple shake their heads no. Emma
and Killian need friends about right now. Maybe I should be kind and compassionate.
Time Period: A Flashback
Situation: The start of the new curse
Rumple's p.o.v
"Papa, the sky is strangely dark" Solomon observes from standing outside. "A storm is
coming. Please come back inside the shop" I warn him nicely. "I am not afraid of mother nature"
Solomon boasts. "Go back inside the shop where you will be safe" Robin, accompanied by
Lulu and Levi, orders Solomon on my behalf. "Alright" Solomon sighs. "Hurry up, come in" I pressure
Robin, Lulu, Levi, and Solomon. Before they can set a foot in the front door, they are gone with the
wind. Other people wandering the street also begin to disappear. I am left with the following
people: Emma, Killian, Ellie, Henry, Spirit, Belle, Gideon, Blossom, Avalon, and Regina who has lost
her memory. The cemetery, my family burial plot, contains the remains of those like Solomon who
have "died". I keep this a secret forever because I don't know how to break the news to Regina aka
Roni.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: Emma and Killian's house
Rumple's p.o.v
"Ellie is surely a energetic child" Belle muses. "I can't believe how close she came to death"
emotional, Emma reflects. "Spirit healed her" Killian recalls. "I know how you feel because I have
lost two sons, Baelfire and Solomon. Nothing is more painful than losing children" I crack. My
grandson, Henry can read my deep inner thoughts. "Whenever are you going to tell Regina aka Roni
about Robin, Lulu, Levi, and Solomon?" Henry calls me out. "Regina has a new different life now. She
hasn't mentioned them. She probably doesn't remember them" I explain.
Emma's p.o.v
Killian has brought me here to the hospital because I have a stomachache. I feel something trying
to come out of me. After doing a vaginal exam, Doctor Whale has concluded I am in labor. I am
already fully dilated. I didn't know I was pregnant. Killian is as shocked as me. Before we can have
time to digest the news, the contractions start to pick up. With much anguish, I deliver a
healthy baby girl. She is the reincarnated version of our deceased daughter, Spirit.
Avalon's p.o.v
Spirit's cheery voice serves as my alarm clock. "Good morning to you, my friend" she
acknowledges me. Like her name implies, she is a spirit so she can never really die.
If Spirit is an immortal then why she did she suffer so much? Anyhow, I am glad she
with me whether in her baby or teenage form.
Place: Emma and Killian's house
Roni's p.o.v
"Avalon said Spirit has been reincarnated. She has taken on the form of your new baby" I recall.
"You can hold her" Emma offers placing Spirit into my arms. "Thanks" I smile. I am happy that
I can make Spirit feel comfortable. Still I want what I can not have.
Rumple's p.o.v
Our lives crossed paths at the cemetery. Once buried memories now come back to life. "Here lies
Solomon Mills Gold, a beloved son and brother" Roni reads on our son's tombstone. "The hardest
part of waking up is realizing what we lost" I confide in her. "We had a baby once. We had a son
once. Our lives were completely different back then" Roni reflects. Avalon falls to her knees crying.
Solomon's p.o.v (reincarnated as a child angel (Little Boy Blue))
"Baelfire, I am hungry" I complain to my older brother. "I will treat you to a meal here at Grannys" Bae
offers opening the door for me. "Thanks" I squeal sitting down in a booth. "You are welcome, buddy"
Bae smirks. He orders and buys a plate full of blueberry pancakes for me. We enjoy each other
so much that people assume we are actually father and son.
Avalon's p.o.v
"I miss this town especially Roni. I enjoyed playing the piano at your mother's bar" Spirit reminiscences. She has joined me for a walk around town. Nobody can see her or
talk to me except for me. "You are an immortal. You are not truly dead. You can come back here anytime" I remind her. "OH, look at that cute little boy over there. He must
be an orphaned" Spirit points out. The little boy who is walking across the street resembles my brother Solomon greatly. I follow him into my papa's shop. Without hesitation,
Papa embraces the boy. "I knew you would always find me, Solomon" Papa addresses the boy. I join in on the big family group hug. This serves as Spirit's clue to leave.
Spirit's p.o.v (still as a teenager)
My feet go in a opposite direction of my heart. I pay a visit to Emma and Killian at their house. Besides Ava, they can also interact with me. It is a sort of goodbye and hello
for us.
Solomon's p.o.v (as a child)
My mother enters papa's shop. I hug her really tightly because I am so glad to see her again. "You
are very cute. I appreciate your hug, but I don't know who you are. What is your name?" Mother
asks. I cry for she does not remember me.
Rumple's p.o.v
"Please excuse your mother's behavior. She has lost her memory due to a curse" I explain to my
son. "Thank you for explaining" Solomon sniffles. "Trust and believe things will get better" Avalon
adds. "I may have lost my memory, but I am not dumb to the fact that boy is related to me
somehow. What is so special about him?" Roni pressures Avalon and me. "We visited Solomon's
grave at the cemetery. This boy is our deceased son Solomon" I remind her.
Roni's p.o.v
"This cute little boy is our deceased son Solomon. I understand now" I agree. "So your memory is
not completely gone" Rumple teases me. He stops himself from kissing me in front of our children.
Emma's p.o.v
I catch Spirit singing a lullaby to her baby self in the nursery. "You have a beautiful singing voice.
You were born with a song in your heart" I compliment her. "Thanks" Spirit smiles making my heart
melt. "I thank you for giving your dad and me a second chance to parent you. Ellie is a happy
thriving child because of you" I praise her even more. "You can love me today, but forget me
tomorrow" she bargains with me.
Place: Roni
Emma's p.o.v
"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Jones" Solomon acknowledges us at the front door. "You are a wonderful
greeter" I compliment Solomon. "You deserve a pay raise for being kind and cute" Killian adds.
"Well thank you" Solomon smiles escorting us to a table. "I will be your waitress for today" Avalon
informs us as she gives us menus. With Regina's help, Avalon takes our orders and then serves us
our food. Although I am enjoying spending time with my husband, I still miss hearing Spirit play
the piano.
Rumple's p.o.v
"Off to bed you go, my little prince" Belle chants tucking Solomon into bed. "I need my teddy bear.
Where is my teddy bear?" Solomon panics looking around for his teddy bear. "Here is your teddy
bear, my dear sweet precious boy" I tease Solomon. Solomon holds his teddy bear close to his
heart. "I heard you were a big help to your mom and sister today. I am very proud of you" I boost
his confidence. "Yes. That's true, papa" he agrees. Belle and I give him a goodnight hug and kiss.
Then we head off to bed ourselves.
Roni's p.o.v
"Roni" a voice calls out to me in the darkness. "Yes. How I may help you?" I ask nicely. "Hello, dearie"
Rumple acknowledges me. Lovestruck, my heart is doing both cartwheels and back flips. "I am
glad you can join me for a late night stroll through Storybrooke" I respond.
Rumple's p.o.v
Roni aka Regina allowed me to walk her home. I waved hello to Ava who was staring out of her
bedroom window upstairs. Ava smiled and waved back at me. I kissed Roni's cheek instead of lips.
I left the house quickly before we could go all the way. Roni didn't beg for more because she
understood I was married and had another family.
Place: Belle's house
Rumple's p.o.v
Surprisingly, my family was awake when I walked through the front door. "Welcome back home,
pops" a tired Gideon acknowledged me. "Thanks" grateful, I smirked. "Papa..Papa" Solomon whined
clinging hard onto me. "Your dear papa is back home now. Everything will be okay" I calmed him
down. "Rumple, we were very worried about you. Where did you go?" Belle asked. "I took a late night
stroll with Roni aka Regina through StoryBrooke" I confessed. Belle was more sympathetic than
angry toward me. "Even now I feel bad and sad for you" she admitted.
Place: Narnia
Spirit's p.o.v (as a teenager)
One of my favorite pets, a dove, leads Neal aka Baelfire to me. "Spirit, you surely do have a lot of
birds. You need to let some of them go" he suggests. "My birds are my friends. I will never ever
set them free" I decline. "What about your real friends and family?" he inquires.
Neal's p.o.v
"I almost never made it here to paradise, Narnia. I thought the sins of the father fell upon the son. I
guess apart of myself is still good" I bring to Spirit's attention. "I believe there is some good left in
that man, your father. You have made Rumple be a better man. Sometimes I feel bad and sad for
him" she admits. "We were talking about your lack of communication with your family and friends.
How did I start talking about my dad?" I wonder. "You still miss your dearly beloved papa" Spirit
assumes.
Place: Storybrooke-The Dock
Spirit's p.o.v
Aboard the Jolly Roger, I am home at last. Dad spots me from a distance. He mistakens me for a
trespasser. "Hey you! Get off my ship!" Dad yells getting onto the ship. "It's just me your daughter"
I inform him. "Hello, love. I am sorry for yelling at you. I thought you were a trespasser" Dad
apologizes. "I accept your apology" I mean from my heart. "A part of you is a pirate. This ship
The Jolly Roger, should've been yours" Dad wishes.
Killian's p.o.v
Spirit was set in her ways so I let her go. Deep in thought, I took a stroll through town. A very
familiar pretty yellow Buggy followed behind me. "Killian, do you need a ride?" Emma asked
rolling down her window. "Sure" I smirked getting into the car. Our daughter Ellie sat in the
backseat. "Hello, Daddy" Ellie acknowledged my presence. "Hello, Love" I responded back.
"Today is my tenth birthday and your wedding anniversary. Mom is taking us to Roni to
celebrate" happily, she informed me.
Emma's p.o.v
While checking the mailbox, I encounter a pretty white dove. Strangely, the dove didn't have a
message for me. I follow the dove to Granny's where I receive the biggest surprise of my life.
My estranged daughter Spirit works as a waitress here. I didn't know she was back in town.
The dove must've been of her doing. Just when I am about to leave, Spirit embraces me. She
whispers "I love you". I respond with "I love you too".
Spirit's p.o.v
I am on the outside looking in. I am glad Avalon is getting well acquainted with her Aunt Zelena.
I wish I had a cool aunt like Zelena. I know little about my parents' past. I might have an aunt
somewhere. A familiar yellow buggy parks next to the sidewalk. My mom rolls down the front
passenger window. "Please stop stalking the Gold Family especially Avalon. Come and be my
baby for once" mom invites me. Obediently, I get into the car. Then we drive off into the sunset.
Avalon's p.o.v
I notice a teenage girl sitting on the rooftop. She smiles and waves hello to me as I walk into Roni's.
She has a very familiar face, but I can't recall her name. A pretty white dove takes her spot
soon enough. Just then I realize that girl was the oracle and my good friend, Spirit Everest Jones.
Mom and Raven fill in the hole of my heart that she left behind.
Spirit's p.o.v (She is the teenage daughter of Killian and Emma)
I observe my dad walking in and out of the police station. I assume he works as a police officer
for the Hyperion Heights district. He doesn't see me at all. Although we are disconnected at the
moment, I am grateful for his service. I am torn between letting my presence be known or having a
bird lead mom to me. I have a bird lead her into the woods instead of approaching her myself. She
embarked on this same wild goose chase when I warned her about the coming great war long ago.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Detective Rogers' p.o.v aka Killian
A ghostly presence has been following me. I keep on getting this feeling that something or
someone has been torn from my life. Maybe it is her. She is a special being without any specific
particular meaning to me. She will never know how I feel for as long as we remain strangers in this
foreign land.
Time Period: A Different Realm-An Alternate Universe
Spirit's p.o.v
"Its too cold to be outside. You should come inside the house where it is warm" mom suggests. I
dig my feet deeper into the sand and keep my eyes focus on the sunset. The seagulls and fish in
the ocean are calling my name. Mom continues to press the issue until I give in. She accompanies
me back to the house where we join Ellie in watching Dad and Alice play a game of chess.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: Hyperion Heights
Detective Roger's p.o.v
Accidently, I bump into Henry Mills on the sidewalk. "You dropped your book" I inform him.
"Thanks" he smirks picking up the book off the ground. "Your Once Upon A Time book contains real
magic. May be you can let me borrow and read the book sometime. I feel a special connection to
it" I offer. "You can read and keep the book. You can give it back to me after you are done" he
allows. My eyes and fingers stay stuck on the page that displays my guardian angel's picture.
According to Henry, her name is Emma Swan. She rescued me from a near death experience once.
I turn to a brand new page in the book. This page displays Emma and I with our three lovely
daughters. Our daughters' names are Spirit, Alice, and Ellie.
Situation: Riding in a cop car, Rogers and Weaver patrol Hyperion Heights
Detective Rogers' p.o.v
"You are a different person when you are around your family" I tease my partner. "My family makes
me to be a better person. Its mind-blowing how close I came to losing everything" Weaver reflects.
"I wish I could have it all figured out like you do" I compliment him.
Alice's p.o.v
Here I am crossing the street and a police car almost hits me. Concerned, Detective Rogers and
Detective Weaver get out of the car immediately. I accept their apologies. They ask if I have any
parents. I tell them that I am an orphan. They don't know that I have escaped from the orphanage.
Sensing I may need shelter, they take me to the police station. Consequently, Lady Tremaine shows
up and tries to take me back to the orphanage. Feeling we may be related, Detective Rogers
decides to be my temporary guardian. This serves as Lady Tremaine's clue to leave the police
station. She never bothers me again.
Detective Rogers' p.o.v
My boss allowed me to end my shift early. I wanted to spend time with Alice. I was Alice's new
temporary guardian after all. I tried my best to make her feel at home. My apartment wasn't her
ideal house, but she grew to love it with time. We bonded over Henry's storybook. He was kind
enough to let me borrow the book. I showed Emma's picture and our family group photo to Alice.
These two things restored her memory. She recognized and acknowledged me as her dad. She
revealed Emma died giving birth to Ellie who had Down Syndrome. Lady Tremaine sent Ellie
to a group home for those with special needs. I promised Alice that I would help her find
Ellie. Alice mentioned nothing about her oldest sister Spirit. I assumed Spirit was dead or simply
unreachable.
Time Period: A Flashback
Event: Ellie's birth and the start of the new curse
Killian's p.o.v
"I can't hold on much longer" Emma hyperventilates. "All I need is one more big push" Regina pressures my wife and her best friend. "Just make sure you tell
Ellie that I love her. Make sure she remembers me" Emma requests of me. "Ellie will know you if you don't die today" I encourage her. Nevertheless the birth
of one life means the death of another. I lose and gain everything all in one day.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: A Group Home in Hyperion Heights
Rogers' p.o.v
"Earth to dad" Alice nudges me. "Yes, love" I acknowledge her. "We are here at the group home. Ellie is right through the front door. We are one step closer to getting your
daughter and my sister back" excited, Alice informs me. "Sure" I laugh opening the door for her. Unfortunately, numerous mountains so called barriers stand between Ellie and us.
Spirit's p.o.v
From up here on the rooftop, the world appears beautiful and serene. A warm fuzzy feeling comes
over me. I love this feel good sensation. While feeding my birds, I check for any signs of my family.
I notice my dad and sisters walking out of Roni's. I assume they have just eaten dinner. My
presence startles them and yet brings them joy.
Time of day: Morning
Place: The Cemetery
Roger's p.o.v
Usually, I don't visit the cemetery. I have come here today in hopes of finding Emma's tombstone.
A pretty marble angel statue marks her gravesite. "Here lies Emma Swan, a beloved mother of
Henry Mills" I read. I am absolutely shocked because Henry never mentioned Emma was his
mother.
Rogers' p.o.v
Unexpectedly, I barge into Henry's apartment where he is working on his next novel. My rage gets
his attention. "You lied to me. You said you didn't know anyone named Emma. How can you deny
your own flesh and blood, your mother?" I question him. "Lady Tremaine tried to erase all my
memories of my mother. The only way to honor my mom was to make her into a superhero"
Henry explains.
Time Period: A Flashback
Place: The Enchanted Forest
Alice's p.o.v
The family pig, Wilbur ran away from the farm. Tirelessly, I chased after him. He knocked over a
teenage girl by accident. She wore the finest silk and prettiest butterfly earrings. She fell in the
dirt and I helped her up. Distracted, I lost track of Wilbur. "My name is Alice. My pig Wilbur ran
away from my family's farm. I apologize for my pig's rude behavior" I explained. "My name is
Avalon. People call me Ava for short. I thank you for staying around and helping me. I accept
your apology" my new friend emphasized. I accompanied Avalon to her house in which was
exactly a manor. Her parents, Regina and Rumple, rushed to provide any immediate assistance.
They presented Avalon with a new dress and butterfly earrings. They shown me great mercy after
I told them the truth. They gave me a new pig as a goodbye gift and peace offering.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The streets of Hyperion Heights
Alice's p.o.v
Dad and I were taking a lovely stroll through downtown when I saw Avalon walking across the
street. She wore those same pretty pink butterfly earrings. I ran over and embraced her
immediately. Our eyes interlocked and our friendship was reborn.
Date: 12-20-2017
Drizella's p.o.v
"You healed my daughter!" I exclaimed. "Yes" Dizzy's nurse nodded her head. "Please take me to
my daughter. I must see the results for myself" I instructed her. "Alright" she agreed escorting me
to Dizzy's recovery room. The rest of the family stayed behind in the waiting room. I promised
them that I would provide an update on Dizzy's condition as soon as possible. When the nurse
and I entered the room, Dizzy embraced us. She was her old jolly active self again. I was
extremely thankful to the nurse, Ms. Spirit, for healing my daughter. Spirit didn't mind if I told
everyone that she was a miracle worker. Introductions were not needed because they already
knew who she was and what she could do. I discovered that Spirit was related to Tilly, Ellie
and Detective Rogers.
Detective Rogers aka Killian's p.o.v
I take her outside for a brief chat. Ellie and Alice eavesdrop on our conversation. "I thought you
were dead. When were you going to tell me that you were alive and back in town?" I ask my
daughter Spirit. She looks down at the ground and then looks up at the night sky before answering
me. Her only excuse is "I am a time traveler". "Emma...your mom would've never wanted all this
distance between us" I close out our conversation. She hugs me briefly and then disappears into
the night. I hold onto the hope that she loves me and we will see each other again someday.
Still Killian's p.o.v
"Daddy, why couldn't Spirit come home with us?" Ellie inquires on the long walk home. "Love, Spirit
has other plans" I explain. "It's her loss" Alice remarks. "Tonight's nativity scene was something
else. Detective Weaver and his family surely did put on an amazing show. I never expected for
the angel, Dizzy, to fall off the roof. Who knew a trip to the hospital would reunite us with Spirit?"
I reflect. Once at home, I indulge my daughters with bedtime stories and lullabies until they fall
asleep.
Time Period: A Flashback-The Wish Realm
Killian's p.o.v aka Detective Rogers
Alice has returned home with a new pig. She lost Wilbur who ran away from the family farm.
Rumple and Regina gave this pig to Alice after she helped their daughter Avalon. Running wild,
Wilbur bumped into Avalon on accident. Avalon fell face first into a mud puddle. Her pretty pink silk
dress and butterfly earrings were damaged. Alice accompanied her back home. Anyway, at this
present moment, Ellie has fallen off a horse. Ellie has Down Syndrome. She has a high
tolerance for pain. Spirit is able to heal Ellie, something that Emma and I can't do. Suddenly,
Spirit evaporates like water. Spirit is a time traveler, therefore she can't stay in one single place
for long. She leaves behind a pile of clothes for Emma and me to put away.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: Roger's apartment
Roger's p.o.v
I set out pajamas and prepare a nice warm bed for Spirit just in case she wants to spend the night.
Spirit is a time traveler so everything remains up in the air with her. I don't know how long I can
continue to wait or put my life on hold for her. I remember I promised Emma who died giving birth
to Ellie that I would look after our daughters no matter the cost.
Emma's p.o.v
Archie followed me into the forest where I encountered an oracle last night. He thought I was crazy
for tracking her down. She warned me about the upcoming great war. She held the key to my
destiny and fate. We discovered her laying severely unconscious and wounded. We wanted to help
her, but Jasmine distracted us.
Wish Hook's p.o.v
Emma was distracted, but I knew she never meant to leave our daughter bleeding out in the forest. I
hoped she found whatever answers that she was looking for. I shifted my focus from that version
of my wife to our daughter Spirit. "I got you, love" I assured Spirit as I carried her home. Emma,
Alice, and Ellie waited for us on the other side. Emma's magical healing powers were able to
resurrect Spirit.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The Police Station
Roger's p.o.v
Accompanied by Dizzy, Ivy approaches Francis and me. Francis and Ivy exchange one
passionate kiss. I can't believe they are involved with each other. "Hello, Ivy. How may I help you?" I
chime in. "I visited the hospital because I wanted to show my appreciation for the kind nurse who
helped Dizzy. According to the staff, she has been missing in action for many days" Ivy informs me.
"I will look into the case" I promise Ivy and then she goes on her merry way.
Avalon's p.o.v
She has joined me for a candlelit visual at our favorite chapel. We honor those who have died
prematurely. My friend and the great oracle, Spirit Jones, feels human emotions such as grief. Her
sadness affects me greatly. It has definitely been a change of seasons and twist of fate for us.
Avalon's p.o.v
Tired, I am all cried and prayed out. I could fall asleep right here in the chapel. Spirit goes elsewhere
while I make the long walk home. I hope she is surrounded by love and sleeping in a nice warm bed
like me.
Time Period: A Flashback-The Wish Realm
Killian's p.o.v
"I love you" I confess to my wife as we dance around our cottage. My beautiful singing along with
Spirit's piano playing brings Emma to tears. I wipe them off her pretty face. Ellie gives Emma a real
tight bear hug. Later on, Alice challenges me to a chess game in which I win.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Roger's p.o.v
While I am cooking breakfast, Ellie pinches me. "Ellie, why did you pinch me?" I ask her. "Daddy, you
are not wearing green" Ellie explains. "Oh I see" I chuckle looking over my attire. "Papa, it's Saint
Patrick's Day" Alice reminds me.
Place: The Hospital
Spirit's p.o.v
From up here on the roof, I feel at peace even in my dove form. People, down below me, resemble
busy tiny ants. A colorful toy car, an ambulance captures my attention. I check to see what all
of the commotion is about. My friend, Raven has been shot and is now being taken to the
emergency room. I transform back into my human self so that I may help my colleagues who
are trying to revive her. Unfortunately, the grim reaper has a strong hold on her.
Spirit's p.o.v
I volunteer to break the bad news to Raven's parents. Tiana and Naveen have been waiting along
with Weaver's family and my family in the lobby. Before I can increase their pain and sorrow even
more, Drizella tells them that I am a healer. Drizella's daughter, Dizzy is a walking testimony of my
miraculous power. Tiana and Naveen want me to resurrect their daughter. Raven is their only
child after all. Regretfully, I fail to please them. Naveen accepts her passing while Tiana struggles
to move forward. "Even now, you didn't try hard enough" livid, she snaps at me. Sensing I may need
comfort and support, my family reaches out. They understand that I need space.

Spirit's p.o.v
Weary, I rest my head on my mother's chest. I absorb her warm body heat. She kisses my
forehead. "I am no healer. I am cursed. I couldn't save my friend Raven. Now everybody hates me.
They are better off without me" I sob heavily. "You are not cursed. You have a sweet caring spirit.
I admire you for never giving up. Not everybody hates you. You could be happy if you want to"
mother encourages me.

Place: The Doctor's office
Emily's p.o.v (Emma Swan's new identity in Hyperion Heights)
I already have an eight year old son named Killian. Killian was named after a good friend of mine.
Now here I am expecting another precious miracle whom will be another boy. "Even at fourteen
weeks, your son is still thriving" the doctor observes. "That's good" I agree with the doctor. "What
will your son's name be?" She wonders turning off the ultrasound machine. "His name will be Collin"
I reply with a joyful tone. The doctor gives Killian candy as an award for waiting patiently and
quietly. Politely, he tells her "thank you". Hand in hand, we exit the doctor's office and walk to
my car outside. A masked man wearing a black hoody robs and attacks me at gunpoint. I almost
miscarry Collin.
Detective Roger's p.o.v
"My mom is right here in this room" Killian Snow directs Weaver and me. After a doctor's
appointment, eight year old Killian and his mother Emily were robbed and attacked by a masked
man wearing a black hoody in a parking lot. This same man shot and killed Raven at Roni's two
days ago. He has been on the run ever since. Anyhow, Weaver and I walk in on Emily having an
ultrasound test. Emily is fourteen weeks along. She is expecting a boy whose name will be Collin.
She doesn't mind answering our questions about her attacker. She cooperates with Weaver
and me very well. In another place and time, Emily is my beloved Emma Swan. I can't believe she is
still alive. This has been the greatest shock and surprise of my life. Emma has lost her
memory due to the curse. "Don't become too attach to our client" Weaver warns me outside.
Somehow he can read my thoughts. He doesn't know my heart though.
Date: 4-9-2018
Roger's p.o.v
Nervously, I knock on Emily's front door. Emily is really delighted to see me. "Hello, Detective
Rogers" she acknowledges me. Her baby bump has grown a lot since the last time I saw her.
Killian jumps with joy in the background. "Emily, I wanted to check on you. Are you ok?" I explain. "I
thank you, Detective Weaver, and the hospital staff for saving my babies and me " she praises me.
"That evil monster, Jaylen, is behind bars now. You and Raven's family can live in peace" I assure
her. We exchange phone numbers and hugs. I stop myself from kissing her. As I walk back to my
car, I notice a dove flying high above.
Date 4-10-2018
Emily's p.o.v
Visibly distraught, Rogers enters my hospital room. "The hospital called me. They said you were
experiencing premature labor" Rogers recalls. With Rogers' permission, I have made him to be my
emergency contact person. This is because I don't have any family or friends that live in Hyperion
Heights. "I am indeed in labor. I am just sixteen weeks along. Collin's original due date is October
Third. If born right now, he might not survive" crying, I fear. Rogers holds me close and helps
me through the next wave of painful contractions. He also provides comfort for my son Killian.
Killian has grown quite fond of him. With Rogers and Killian by my side, I give birth to Collin. The
NICU becomes his second temporary home.
Date: 4-10-2018
Place: The Police Station
Roger's p.o.v
"You are a hot mess" Weaver greets me when I enter the police station. "I was with Emily and Killian
at the hospital. I was Emily's only emergency contact person. Emily gave birth to her son Collin.
Collin's original due date was October Third. He arrived sixteen weeks early" I explain. "There is
no need for you to explain yourself. I gave you time off from work" Weaver reminds me. "I thank
you for understanding" I commend him. "Avalon was born two months early. Ava was born on
October 29, 2000. Her original due date was December thirteenth. I know how you feel. I was
in your position once. I don't have the right to keep you away from those who you care about"
he confides in me. "Emily really needs support in this difficult time. I can do so much for her"
I stress. "My and Drew's baby is developing quite well. We are expecting a boy. His due date is
October 29th. Drew hopes our son will have blonde hair and blue eyes like me" Toby boasts. I am
happy for Toby and want to celebrate with him, but I have desk work to finish.
Date: 4-12-2018
Place: Roni's
Regina's p.o.v
Carrying the weight of the world, she sits down at the bar. She doesn't perk up at the sight of me.
The light, joy has gone from her pretty green eyes. I remember her, but I doubt she remembers me.
I play it safe and cool by pretending this is the first time that we have met. "Hello, my name is Roni" I
introduce myself to Emily. I offer Emily wine to drink. She gladly accepts my kind gesture. "My name
is Emily. I am a single mother. I have two sons named Killian and Collin. Killian is eight years old.
Collin is a two day old preemie. He was born sixteen weeks early" She confides in me. "I have two
Kids myself. Their names are Avalon and Solomon. Avalon, also known as Ava, is seventeen years
old. She was born two months early. She arrived October twenty ninth instead of December
thirteenth. My son, Solomon is nine years old" I share with Emily. Sabine enters the restaurant and I
introduce her to Emily. We bond over kids and babies especially the premature ones. I am glad to
call these ladies my friends. Unexpectedly, Henry interrupts our happy hour. Emily's presence
restores some of Henry's memories. He claims he is her son. Unable to handle the truth, she
leaves the restaurant.
Place: The Cemetery
Emily's p.o.v
"Here lies, Emma Swan, a beloved mother of Henry Mills" I read. My fingers trace the tombstone
inscription. I wish why and how these words are connected to me. The sudden appearance of a
dove startles me. The dove transforms into a beautiful teenage girl. I can see myself in her eyes.
"Who are you?" I ask touching her cheek. She doesn't flinch or push me away. "My name
is Spirit. I am your daughter. You have lost your memory and I am going to fix the problem"
she vows. Spirit's revelation absolutely shocks me. I can't recall ever having a daughter.
Time Period: A Flashback-The Wish Realm
Emily aka Emma's p.o.v
"I love this, you and our girls in this little cottage" I mention to Killian in bed. Killian kisses me and
I wrap my arms tighter around him. "We should try for a son, right here and now" he suggests.
"It appears that you can only make girls" I tease my husband. "Sure, love" he chuckles. We make
up the bed together. Afterwards, Killian treats our daughters and me to a ride on the Jolly Roger.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The Cemetery
Emily's p.o.v
He pulls me in for a long passionate kiss. He gets straight down to business without any
hesitation. I remember who I am immediately.
Time Period: Father's Day
Place: The NICU
Detective Rogers' p.o.v
"Collin is my brother. He is so tiny" Ellie points out. "Collin has gained a few pounds" Emma
announces to our kids and me. "That is wonderful news" I agree. "I can't wait to play with him"
Killian whispers. "With everything that is going on with Dizzy, it feels good to be happy and
hopeful for once" Alice reflects.
Emma's p.o.v
As I sort out dirty clothes in the laundry room, I discover a blue baby blanket on the floor.
The name, "Josiah" is imprinted on the blanket. I question everyone in my household about the
mysterious blue baby blanket. My household includes Wish Hook, Wish Hook's daughter Alice,
killian, and our adopted daughter Hope. I am at a loss until Killian refreshes my memory. He claims
the blanket belongs to our deceased son Josiah. I miscarried him soon after we visited my adult
son Henry. Unfortunately, the pregnancy and time traveling didn't work well together. An emergency
D&C gave Killian and me an opportunity to bond with Josiah briefly. I wrapped him up in a blue
blanket that I brought from home.
Emma's p.o.v
Crying, I run out of the front door. "Emma...Love" Killian shouts after me. I dare not look or turn
back. I bump into a young man wearing a dark hoody on the street. Maybe he is a wandering lost
and lonely soul like me. "I am sorry for bumping into you" I apologize immediately. "I understand
that you may have a lot on your mind. I forgive you" he consoles me. He has my same eye color
and facial features. My heart already knows what my mind struggles to comprehend and believe.
Emma's p.o.v
He disappears into the crowd and apart of myself goes missing as well. Maybe it is his goal to
remain anonymous forever. He doesn't know he still has family out here in the world.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Place: The Palace
Situation: Regina along with some extra help is preparing for Avalon and Raven's graduation party
Regina's p.o.v
Unexpected, Emma's presence startles me. I almost fall off the ladder. I have been hanging up party
decorations on the wall. "Hello, Emma" I acknowledge my friend. "I am sorry for startling you" she
apologizes. "I forgive you. How may I help you?" I ask her. "You miscarried Solomon. Rumple
resurrected him. My deceased son, Josiah has been resurrected. I need your help in solving this
mystery" she explains.
Emma's p.o.v
"You miscarried Josiah a long time ago. You have been granted a second chance to mother him.
You can do this" Regina encourages me. "You were in my position once. Please tell me about your
experience" I persist. I have touched on a very sensitive subject for Regina because she is
becoming emotional. "Solomon's conception was an immaculate conception. Avalon and Solomon
are both magical babies. I miscarried Solomon when I was twenty weeks along. Rumple's mother,
Fiona and her evil minions attacked me. They increased the pain and sorrow that I was already
experiencing with the pregnancy. I underwent an emergency D&C procedure at the hospital. I didn't
want Rumple to bury Solomon in his family burial plot. Rumple dropped off Solomon at Old
McDonald's Farm. Solomon developed a new identity there. His alter ego was Little Boy Blue"
Regina confides in me. My bleeding heart rests easy and peacefully in her arms.
Regina's p.o.v
"Mommy, why are you crying?" Solomon asks me. "I am not crying" I deny trying to regain my
composure. "You must miss Papa too" Solomon assumes. "Your sister needs help. You should help
her decorate for the party" I deflect. "Okay, mommy" he agrees walking away. A cute little girl
with Down Syndrome whose name is Ellie approaches Emma. They embrace each other
immediately. "Hello, mommy" Ellie acknowledges Emma. "Ellie, you are a little precious angel of
mine" Emma compliments Ellie.
Emma's p.o.v
"I thank you for looking after Ellie" I thank Regina. "No problem. I know you would do the same
thing for me" Regina responds. She climbs up the ladder to hang up more decorations. This is my
clue to leave her alone. I take Ellie home with me. A familiar face joins us for the long walk back
home. "Sissy, please hold my hand" Ellie requests of Spirit. Spirit holds Ellie's left hand while
I hold her right hand.
Spirit's p.o.v
Joyfully, Ellie runs into our father's arms. He carries her on his back. I am too big and old for that
kind of stuff. I feel invincible and lonely even here at home. I don't know what I am doing back
here. A time to be present and to leave a mark is right now.
Place: Emma and Killian's house
Spirit's p.o.v
Cute and cuddly, Ellie remains the center of attention. Nobody except for mom notices me
walking out of the front door. With my face in my hands, I sit on the front porch. She sits down
beside me and massages my shoulders. "With everything that we have been through, I am not
ready to set you free" she admits. "I can do a new magic trick. I will show it to you" I entice her.
I squeeze her hands and light beams emit from them.
Emma's p.o.v
I bump into Josiah on the street again. Like me, he is heading to the library. He follows me to the
children's book section. A book of nursery rhymes captures my attention. Josiah assumes I must
have a little one back at home. I tell him that I do have a little one back at home. "My favorite
nursery rhyme is Jack Be Nimble" he points out.
Emma's p.o.v continued
We approach the checkout desk and the librarian greets us with a smile. "Two nursery rhyme
books, oh, what interesting good choices" the sweet old lady whispers. "I will jump over the moon
or another candlestick again" Josiah remarks. "I might turn into a goose and lay a golden egg
again" Gloria jokes. I am totally lost and confused. "Emma, I apologize for not properly introducing
myself. My name is Gloria Crystal. I was Mother Goose in a past previous life. Your son, Josiah
is Jack Be Nimble. I resurrected him" she informs me. "I have heard about you, Mother Goose.
What are you and my son doing in Storybrooke?" I inquire. "We are here to take Solomon aka
Little Boy Blue home. Our stories are incomplete without him" she explains. I am torn between
telling Regina or keeping this secret to myself.
Emma's p.o.v
"My name is Vera Humbert. I am indeed the new sheriff" my processor introduces herself. "When I
was sheriff, I had a partner. His name was Graham Humbert. He was a good man that passed
away too soon. His heart gave out on him. He died in my arms" I reflect. "Graham Humbert is my
father. You knew my father" Vera reveals making my heart to bleed with an intense compassion.
She doesn't mind if I embrace her. "You do have his eyes" I point out. "Thanks" Vera blushes and
giggles like a little girl. We continue our lovely conversation in her office.
Time Period: A Flashback
Emma's p.o.v
"Wake Up!" I cried and screamed as I shook Graham's body. Despite my efforts , he didn't display
any signs of life. His heart gave out on him. I had lost him for good this time. He was long gone
before the official announcement came at the hospital. He didn't have any family, therefore I
couldn't contact anyone. I saw Regina talking to a grieving mother and daughter outside. Quickly,
Regina sent them away. I wonder if they were related to Graham. Regina refused to
answer my questions about them. She highly recommended for me to get back to work. I wanted to
argue with Regina, but I followed her orders anyway.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Emma's p.o.v
Totally Lost and confused, I end my meeting with Vera early. Vera understands that I may need
space and time to process. I pay a visit to Regina's house. I storm pass Avalon who
holds the door open for me. Wordlessly, Avalon escorts me to Regina's memorial
garden. Reflective, Regina sits on a bench in the garden. "Regina" I yell catching Regina
off guard. She can already sense my frustration and read my mind.
Regina's p.o.v
"Graham was my huntsman. I hired him to kill your mother. I killed him because he failed at his job.
I have always known that he was married. Graham and his wife, Glinda had a daughter
named Vera. I separated Graham from his family. Vera is the new sheriff because she threatened
to kill Avalon. I am sorry for keeping this information from you" I apologize. "You are a murderer
and a liar. You are not a very good queen" Emma curses me.
Regina's p.o.v
Nervously, I enter the throneroom. I have brought my crown just in case Snow and Charming
remove my title. Emma is present, but she doesn't speak to me. "Welcome, Regina" Snow
greets me in serious solemn tone. "You and Charming wanted to see me. You wanted to discuss
my future as queen over the seven realms" I remind her. "Emma called forth this meeting. It is
obvious that she is mad at you. She is giving you the silent treatment. You killed her friend and
Partner, Graham Humbert. She suggested for us to remove your title" Charming informs me.
I am on the brink of tears. With everything that we have been through, I can't believe Emma has
betrayed me. "Graham was my huntsman. I hired him to kill Snow. Now looking back in hindsight,
I regret killing him. I took him away from his family. I had no concept of family. I was a different
person back then" I confess. A heavy deep silence falls upon us. Silently, I countdown to the
moment when I will lose my crown or my life for good.
Avalon's p.o.v
"You are not going to imprison or kill my mom!" I storm into the throneroom. My mom and the
Charmings are appalled by my rude behavior. "Avalon, please wait in the car" Mom requests nicely.
I can't ignore this need and desire to protect her. "Ava, I admire your bravery. I know how much you
love your mom. I withdraw my petition for her title to be removed" Emma declares. Mom and I
become emotional watching Emma tear up her petition. Snow and David forgive Mom as well.
Now this is what I call mercy and grace.
Scene: Aesop's Bar
Josiah's p.o.v
Christmas songs play on the radio. I can't believe it is that wonderful time of year again. I haven't
celebrated Thanksgiving yet. As usual, my good friend Aesop is working the bar. I bring some
holiday cheer to him. "Hello my good friend" I address him. "Hello, Angel Boy" he acknowledges
me. He offers me grape soda. I remember his fable, "The Fox and The Grapes". "You long for
your family and a normal life, but it is a dying pipe dream" Aesop gathers from reading my
thoughts. "You are correct" I applaud him. "Maybe you should visit Merlin or The author" he
suggests. Hopeful, I exit the brewery and bump into my family outside. Although
Emma and Killian are happy with Hope, they still miss me.
Time Period: A Flashback
Situation: The Miscarriage-Josiah's death
Emma's p.o.v
Writhing in pain, I grab ahold of Killian. "Killian, it hurts" I sob heavily into my husband's arms.
"Inhale and exhale" he instructs rubbing my back. "How can I relax when I am at fault here? I
should've been more careful. I should've never visited our adult son Henry. The pregnancy and
time traveling didn't work well together" I vent. There is a small hint of sadness in Killian's eyes.
"The miscarriage is not your fault. You could've not known beforehand that our baby would
die" he comforts me. Apart of myself refuses to let go of all the guilt. I am so distraught
that I am sedated, put to sleep for the procedure.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Emma's p.o.v
Refusing to bite the dust, a moment in time to reclaim what I lost. Repentance, learning to
surrender, my much needed breakthrough or breaking point. Burying the past, even now you are
more than just a ghost. Refusing to run off into the sunset, all my plans and dreams for our future.
Place: Emma and Killian's house
Situation: A belated birthday party for Josiah
Josiah's p.o.v
Mom and Dad present me with a birthday cake. "Happy birthday to you" mom, dad, and Ellie sing in
unison with Spirit's amazing piano playing. We have traveled down this road before, but I play along
anyway. "Thanks" I smile. They urge me to blow out my candles and make a wish. I wish for many
more happy memories such as this special occasion. "He has grown up, but he's my baby forever"
I thought I heard mom whisper these words to dad.
Regina
I leave Rumple and our precious memories at the hospital. Something inside directs me to Emma's
house. I desire to make amends with her. Emma and Killian's daughter Ellie who has Down
Syndrome greets me with a hug. "Hello Auntie" Ellie acknowledges me. "You are such a sweetheart"
I compliment Ellie. "Ellie Faith Jones, I have your teddy bear. You can play with it while I talk to your
Aunt" Emma bargains with Ellie. "Ok Mommy" the little girl agrees as she takes the teddy bear and
walks back into the house. Emma closes the front door behind her. "Ellie has Down Syndrome, but
I love her so much" Emma's voice cracks. "I want to apologize for offending you at the hospital" I
tell Emma upfront. "I forgive you. You didn't cause Henry's heartattack. He put himself in that
predicament. Where were you when he was discharged from the hospital?" Emma emphasizes.
"Henry's former classmate, Violet had a miscarriage. I was tending to her at the hospital.
Violet's dad has been undergoing chemotherapy. Her husband Christian died in a helicopter
crash eight weeks ago" I share. "I feel sad and bad for Violet. No woman especially her deserves
to lose both a husband and a baby" Emma stresses. A torn page, probably one missing from
Henry's storybook, falls from the sky and lands at our feet. The page displays a picture of two
star-crossed lovers. Emma and I assume the star-crossed lovers are Romeo and Juliet or Tristan
and Isolde.
Place: Emma and Killian's house
Emma's p.o.v
My sweet precious EJ aka Ellie Jones has brought a friend home. I know each one of Ellie's classmates except for this little girl. Her name is Tessa Bloom. She is quite shy and a mystery. "Who are your parents?" I inquire. "I never knew my mother. My last name is Bloom. People call my dad Mr. Bloom. He works at music shop" she admits. "I know only one person whose last name is Bloom. His name is Tristan. He must be your dad" I assume. "I forgot to tell him that I was planning to hang out with EJ after school today. He is so consumed with work and his girlfriend that he doesn't pay me any attention" Tessa confides in me. I contact Tristan asap for security and accountability purposes. Tessa is shocked and surprised that Tristan actually does appear and takes her home.
Place: The Bloom's House
Tristan's p.o.v
"Tessa Blossom Bloom! Why didn't you tell me that you were planning to hang out with Ellie after
school?" I interrogate my eleven year old daughter during dinner. "I never thought or expected for
you to care about my whereabouts. You are always busy with work or your girlfriend" Tessa
assumes. "I apologize for neglecting you. You are never far from my thoughts. I will do better
next time" I promise her. The doorbell rings and Tessa beats me to the door. Our world
collides and merges with Violet's world. We are a family again.
Place: The Jones' house-Spirit's bedroom
Emma's p.o.v
I watch Killian lay Spirit down on her bed. Usually, Spirit quickly regains consciousness. Somehow this time is different. Maybe her body has given out for good. Ellie places her teddy bear right beside Spirit. Ellie believes the teddy bear will bring Spirit goodluck. I don't want to burst Ellie's bubble therefore I stay silent. Killian cares enough to play along with her. Ellie is a very sensitive child because she has Down syndrome. We strive to protect and preserve her innocence at all cost.
Place: The Jones' house
Spirit's p.o.v
My pet dove leads Avalon to me. I am playing with Ellie in the backyard at the time. I am cautious and gentle with Ellie because she has Down Syndrome. Ellie gives Avalon a big tight hug. "Happy birthday" she wishes Avalon. "Thanks, Ellie" Avalon smiles.
Idris p.o.v (Bagheera's human form)
I encounter Emma and her daughter Ellie who has Down Syndrome in the waiting room. A hug from Ellie hug puts a smile on my face. I thank Ellie for her hug. Ellie plays with a teddy bear as she continues to wait for the doctor. "Down Syndome Kids such as Ellie are often affectionate. I hope it doesn't bother you" Emma explains. "I appreciate Ellie's hug especially right now. My son Chadwick has cancer. Morgana is with him now" I confide in Emma. I don't know if her child or mine is suffering more.
