Time Period: A Flashback

Scenario: Avalon's birth

Rumple's p.o.v

"Keep on pushing! You are almost in the homestretch" I motivate Regina who is giving birth to our

daughter. Our daughter is two months early. Regina screams and pushes one last time. "Our

daughter Avalon is here" joyfully, I announce. "Finally" my very tired wife sighs. Her body grows

tense again. I am unsure if she needs my help with delivering the placenta. She says she has it

all under control. Little does she know Ava is experiencing heart failure. I place a heart stint

into her tiny chest. The worst part is over for now.


Time Period: The Present Reality

Place: Regina's House

Although I trust Regina and Chloe, I can't stay away from the house. Avalon has enjoyed spending

time with me. I want to be there for her just in case something bad happens. Regina pulls the truth

out of me.
