I can't handle this confusion. I am unable. Come and take me away -Avril Lavigne, Take Me Away

Time Period: A Flashback

Situation: A new curse hits Avalon and Ava gets separated from her parents

Regina's p.o.v

Frightened, I cradle Ava as I stare out of the window. A new dark curse is heading straight for our

little cottage. "Regina...Regina..Regina" an anxious Rumple yells pulling me away from my thoughts.

"Yes, honey" I respond to my husband. "A curse is heading our direction. We can take cover in

our bedroom closet" he instructs me. Holding Ava close to my chest, I hide in the closet with my

husband. Violent strong winds snatch Ava from my arms. Rumple and I never see her again. Before

we can fully grasp Ava's loss, a whirlpool opens beneath our feet. We are transported to a different

realm where we are strangers to each other.
