I was asked to give a rough estimate of exactly what month/year it is, like I do with Finding You Always. So since it's estimated that the curse was broken in late February 2012 and it's been a few weeks since, it is now early April 2012

Special note:

I am also now on Ko-Fi. So feel free to follow me there too and any support anyone can spare will be greatly appreciated. Just look up Lilacmoon83 there too.

Gal Gadot as Persephone, of course.

Robert Downey Jr as Hades

Natalie Portman as Artemis

Michelle Pfeiffer as Demeter

George Clooney as Zeus

Diane Lane as Hera

Idris Elba as Hephaestus

Thanks for awesome the reviews. Here are individual responses:

Baratta Jennifer: Oh yes, Emma gives Leopold a piece of her mind in this chapter. You'll like it. Ugh, the Swans are the worst, I know.

Grace5231973: Yeah, I wanted to give James a second chance. He was a jerk, but he didn't really have a chance to be anything else. And Robert wants to as well. He'll have to still face his alcoholism now that he's alive again, so that will be a struggle and we'll see if he can do it this time too. Yeah, Eli does need to chill and you're right. We're going to see that what Eli and Persephone had was barely a relationship since it was short and secretive. They never really had time to talk and I'll be examining that dynamic against her long marriage to Hades. While it wasn't good and parts were really bad, there were times they actually talked. She's realizing how well she knows him and how little she knows Eli. Yep, no one is getting near Snow with David around and Emma calls out Leopold blatantly in this chapter so I think you'll enjoy that. I figured that revealing Robert's murder was the time for Rumple and Neal to both reveal what Hook did to them too. He's got a track record and it's being called out.

Saberius Prime: Yep, the Swans are a nuisance. I can't wait to kill them off! Lol. Yep, Eli has it out for Hades and if he can't let it go, it will probably ruin any chance at a relationship with Persephone or Snow. Yep, Robert and James seem to be the ones taking their second chance seriously. Aw, genius mind...that's sweet. Sometimes I think it's more like crazy mind, lol, but you're very nice. :)

Theinferno1536: Oh don't worry, the question is not if the Swans will die, it's when and how painful will it be. Cue the evil laughter.

Naomi Blue: Nope, Hook doesn't have ties to the Charmings in this so there will be no instant forgiveness. Will he eventually find a way to redeem himself? It's a possibility. If Hades can do it, then Hook can too. It's just going to be a tougher path for him. Yes, there will be more interaction between David and James. And don't worry, it's not if bad things will happen to the Swans. It's when. :)

MondlerGellarBing: Yeah, I would say I'm probably a bit deliberately and majorly subconsciously taking on the Snow hate that the fandom has by really digging deep into Snow's pain and certain attitudes around her. I like Swan Believer and Regal Believer both. I do tend to focus on Swan Believer more, because it did take a backseat in canon. As for Regina being abusive during the curse, there's some validity there. I try not to really focus on it a lot though. In her defense though, I doubt she was thinking about him not being able to make friends when she adopted him. That's really not something a parent that wants a child thinks about. Regina's tough, because all she wants is a family. And she eventually got that with Henry and the Charmings. But sometimes the way she got it is uncomfortable to think about. There's some negative things there, but I try not to focus too much on the negative. Obviously there's going to be some in the story, but I try to keep an over all positive tone to the story.

Number Ten: I know, the Swans are the worst. They both need to die a horrible death. I didn't really bash Killian. I only put the facts out there. He did that stuff and it was relevant to bring it up considering what was happening. That doesn't mean he can't eventually be redeemed. But it's not true redemption if all this stuff isn't dealt with properly. I did not bash him. Yeah, I wish they had done the James stuff differently too.

Beth1980: Yeah, Cronus is a bit more cunning than they expected. That won't bode well. I find it interesting that after season 3 when Snow found out that he and Cora were lovers, she never mentioned him again. Not once. I find that extremely telling as in she realized that he wasn't a good man. I explore that a bit more in this chapter. Yep, Persephone is having none of their shit. And we get more of that in this chapter. Yeah, Leopold doesn't fare well at all in this chapter. Emma calls him out big time. I loved the Daddy Charming stuff so glad you enjoyed it too. Yep, Regina has to get used to the co-parenting thing now. I love Neal's one-liner's too. They're fun to write. I know, Deimos is deluded, but I enjoyed Phobos getting to tell him what an idiot he is. I promise he eventually gets killed for good. Lol, yeah that Swans are pretty dumb. Bring on their demise. Yeah, Hook might want to find a good hiding place, lol. Yep, like I said, Leopold gets called out. :)

Izzypirelli: Yep, Jessica is quite possibly the worst of them all. They're true monsters. Yep, hell. Here's to hoping that the Swans soon see hell. I know, the little flashback there for David was heartbreaking. I felt that Robert and James deserve a second chance and David definitely does. Lol, that's how I like to kill, with emotions! Yep, one arrow – that's all it will take. Bandit Snow is not to be messed with. Yeah, Snow is tired, but not tired enough for alone time with her husband. The Persephone/Hades/Eli triangle is going to be very interesting as she explores her relationships with them both. Persephone is my favorite OC too. :) I love the Snowing support too. Yep, super creepy and Leopold gets called out big time for it in this chapter. It's enjoyable. I know, that day lasted like nine chapters, lol. It needed to end and what better way to end it than with tacos? Glad you're still enjoying, as always. :)

Dreaming Out Loud

Chapter 80: Good Morning Storybrooke

"Good morning Storybrooke! It's April 15th and the sun is shining. It's a brisk morning and currently thirty-six degrees. According to all the scientific data available, it will be a beautiful day, with a high of fifty-three. But this is Storybrooke, after all. If Persephone's mood holds out, we might see those fifties, but even if we don't, we survived another day. And that's saying something, considering yesterday was like the zombie apocalypse, am I right? A big shout out to Storybrooke's newest residents, fresh from the Underworld. And thank you from all of us normal citizens for not killing us all!"

"Why the hell do I feel like I'm in the Goddamn Twilight Zone?" Derek muttered, as he switched off the television in his room at Granny's Inn.

He still wasn't sure he could quite get his head around it all. Despite the proof of video in front of him, believing that magic was real was a hard pill to swallow. And even harder to swallow was the rest of it. Fairy Tale characters living our real lives in this world and the Gods of Olympus joining them. He looked out the window and observed the town below. He saw seven short men with pick axes in hand making their way toward the diner and shook his head. The seven dwarves and the Mayor of this whole thing was Snow White herself. Who also happened to be the woman that gave birth and subsequently abandoned baby Emma almost thirty years ago. It was pure insanity and he had to resist the urge to run far from this place. But if that video was anything to go by, then it really could change the world. He wasn't even sure where to start, but figured if this town was as weird as it seemed, then he'd start by taking video of his own.

No reputable news agency would take him seriously and they would likely call any fantastic video he managed to make as fake. After all, with technology as advanced as it was, it was easy to make such videos with all sorts of effects and enhancements. No, he had to go about this a bit differently and fortunately for him, that was the beauty of the Internet.

"All right Storybrooke...let's see what other secrets you have," he said, as he grabbed his small, hand held camera, his phone, and made his way down to the diner.


Belle quietly made her way down to the basement with a tray and peered at Rumple, who was engrossed in his work. He was surrounded by spell books and beakers boiled with potions and concoctions in them. He had been down there all night and though she knew he really didn't need sleep, she missed having him next to her. But she knew what he was doing was very important for her safety, as well as everyone else's. This was the kind of magic she could get behind. When he used his gifts for the sake of protecting them, it made her proud. Having friends and people he actually let himself care about was very good for him, even if he insisted that it complicated everything. In a way, maybe it did, but then doing the right thing was never easy. He probably knew she was there the whole time, but chose that moment to look up and acknowledge her.

"Good morning," she greeted, as she set the tray down. She had brought coffee and made him an omelet with mushrooms and fresh vegetables, along with toast and fresh fruit.

"Thank you…" he said, as he eagerly took a sip of the coffee.

"Any progress?" she asked tentatively.

"We'll know in a minute," he responded, as he dropped a tiny bit of a bluish potion into the concoction he had created. There was a puff of smoke and the liquid started to turn purple, which was what he wanted, but then it turned yellow with a puff of dark smoke. His shoulders slumped in disappointment.

"It didn't work?" she asked.

"No...and I need to figure out why. We need to get a barrier up around town," he lamented.

"At least eat something and then I'll help you research. We can make more progress if we do this together," she suggested. He sighed and then nodded. He wasn't used to having help, but he was grateful to have it now and accepted.

"It looks delicious," he complimented. She smiled and they proceeded to eat together.


That morning, the smell of cooking bacon roused Emma from sleep and she wasn't surprised to see that the kid was already up. She cleaned up quickly and was really enjoying the extra bathroom that Persephone had added with her magical extension spell to the loft. When she finally made her way down, she saw that their guests hadn't arrived yet, but Neal was there and playing a video game with Henry. She guessed that her mother probably invited him and she resisted the urge to playfully roll her eyes. Snow, the Queen of multitasking, was totally trying to push them together. She probably had some binder hidden somewhere full of wedding planning materials and she was tempted to find it so she could hide it. She loved her mother and knew Snow only wanted happiness for her like she had with her father, but Emma wasn't there yet. Especially with all the craziness and uncertainty around them. She was glad her mother had invited Neal though, because it made Henry happy and a morning of playing video games together was completely normal.

"Hey Mom...I'm kicking Dad's butt in Mario Kart," Henry called.

"Yeah...I hate this track. Wait till the next one...I'm gonna smoke you, kid," Neal promised. She smiled at them and as the there was a knock at the door, she realized that was the end of any normalness.

Magic being real and her parents being fairy tale characters was something she had known for a long time now. She had come to terms will all of that over the years in the dreamscape. But people coming back from the dead was an adjustment she wasn't sure any of them could make. She was a tad hopeful for her father's family. They seemed to truly want to be better. Her mother's biological and adopted fathers made her wary though. Eli seemed like a bottle that someone had shaken and then corked. His anger worried her and she knew that if he lost his cool around her mother, she wasn't going to hesitate to lay him out. As for Leopold...he just made her shudder. The creepy vibes were strong with that one.

She sat herself at the island, grateful that Persephone was the one that went to answer the door. She watched her parents exchange a glance, as her father stood at the griddle making pancakes and her mother poured juice into several glasses. She decided to lighten the mood a bit, since some of their usual mirth had disappeared with that knock.

"You know, we've had dragons in Storybrooke, Gods, Goddesses, and my Godmother is a werewolf. I think zombies were inevitable," she joked. It had the desired effect, as her parents smiled and shared a laugh with her.

Persephone let the four men in and for Snow, it was still a bit odd seeing Leopold in modern clothing. He seemed to be adjusted to it well enough though and she supposed that made sense, as he had been in the Underworld version of Storybrooke for many years now.

"Henry...wash up. It's time for breakfast," Emma said, as he and Neal paused their game and went to do so. The awkwardness was still thickly present between all of them, but Robert was the first to speak to try and ease the tension.

"Snow...thank you for inviting us into your home. Knowing that my son is happy does my troubled heart good...I know you are the main reason for his happiness," Robert offered. Snow's cheeks colored at the attention and she motioned them to the table.

"You can hang your coats and breakfast is ready," she said, as Eli approached her.

"I didn't get to say this last night...but I wanted to tell you that you're positively glowing. You are as beautiful as your mother," he mentioned and Snow tried not to shift uncomfortably.

"Thank you," Snow said, as they sat down to breakfast.


"You wanted to see me, Lord Cronus?" Hecate asked, as she entered his Throne room.

"Yes, my dear Hecate...please come," he called, as he motioned her forth.

"I promised you retribution on your killer...and I want to make good on that promise," he stated.

"You are a gracious King for thinking of me," she responded. He smirked.

"A good ruler must think of his people before himself...that is the great travesty when it comes to most rulers. They fail quite splendidly in this aspect and never quite understand what it means to rule justly," Cronus said, as he looked out over the town of Storybrooke.

"Your killer is the same as mine, my dear...and his evil must finally be brought to and end," Cronus stated.

"You...you want me to slay our murderer?" she asked with uncertainty.

"I know what I am asking...but if I were to do it, I would only been seen as the villain. But I assure you, our killer is the real villain," he answered.

"I am not sure I am capable of taking life…" she admonished.

"I know, that is why I loathe asking this of you. But let me tell you of just some of his transgressions," Cronus said, as he magicked a crystal ball before them.

"In the Golden Age, when I ruled, there was great peace and prosperity for man. I gave them what they needed and only asked for their loyalty and patronage in return. They were unselfish and gave such," he said, as the globe displayed prosperous times.

"But then Zeus rose up and slew me with his might and brutality," he added, as she now saw nothing but war in the ball.

"He took my Throne and then gave man fire and knowledge. With those tools, man grew arrogant and selfish. They believed they could rival the Gods and the wars ravaged the lands. Some grew very rich, while others grew very poor and starved. Zeus further polluted the mortal world by punishing their unruliness with famine and disease, even though he was the cause of their arrogance," he explained.

"His siblings are not much better, but Zeus is the real monster. He preys on mortal women and ruins them. He punishes any extraordinary mortals as well," he continued.

"No...what I am suggesting from you wouldn't be murder. Sometimes...justified killings are needed. Zeus threatens all, mortal and immortal," he said, as Hecate watched the horrifying images of just some of the things Zeus had been involved in, whether directly or indirectly.

"He is a monster," she said. Cronus smirked, as his back was to her, before he masked his smugness with a look of grief.

"Quite so...and there is more. I think he means to threaten such extraordinary mortals that I told you about. He is threatened by them," he said.

"Why?" she questioned.

"There is a pair...they are known here as Princess Snow White and Prince David. They have a most extraordinary union for mortals. Snow is the daughter of Persephone," he informed.

"Persephone...she is the daughter of Demeter. You said I was good friends with Demeter," Hecate recalled.

"Very much so…" he stated.

"Why would Zeus want to harm the daughter of Persephone and her husband?" Hecate asked.

"Because this very special union, though mortal, produces extraordinary children, born of true love and with incredible light magic," he told her.

"As you know, mortals are not usually born with magic. It can be learned by them, but it is never pure like those that are born with it," he continued.

"He is threatened by children?" Hecate asked, trying to understand that.

"One of the children is no longer a child. Because of the curse, she is the same age as her parents and known as the Savior. Her power could potentially rival Zeus' and she has no inkling. The other...has yet to be born and resides in Princess Snow's womb. But he fears that this child will become just as powerful as his or her sister," Cronus informed.

"Are you saying that he will try to kill Princess Snow?" Hecate questioned in horror.

"I cannot be sure. The Princess is already afraid that someone will try to take her unborn child from her. Because of Zeus' deception, she thinks that person is me. He has made me the villain in this story," Cronus responded.

"But he is the real danger...to everyone in this town," he added.

"Tell me how I can thwart him," she requested. He smirked again.

"First...you must rejoin the Gods and act like nothing is amiss, other than your lack of memories. Demeter will not turn you away. Then...when Zeus makes the wrong move and I assure, he will...you will save us all," he explained. She nodded, ready to do everything she could to eliminate such evil from the world.


After breakfast, Emma got a quick magic lesson in, as she and Persephone used it to clean up, while David served coffee to their guests and cocoa with cinnamon for Snow, Emma, and Henry. Conversation had been light at breakfast and he really hoped that continued, but he had a feeling might shift to discussing more serious matters. He would be ready to shut down anything that made Snow uncomfortable though and noticed Eli looking at the photos that were displayed on various furniture and the walls though and seemed very interested. Maybe they would be able to keep this light and about family, after all.

"Is this your wedding?" he asked, as he picked up the frame.

"Oh...yes, at least here in Storybrooke. We got married during the curse, before I got my memories back," Snow explained, as she took David's hand and he smiled at her.

"I woke up from the coma with my memories and I wasted no time in falling in love with you all over again. Not many can say they've married the love of their life three times, but I'm proud to say that we can," he added.

"Three times?" James asked. They grinned.

"The first time...mother was dying and we got married with her as our witness," he said.

"Our friend Lancelot performed the ceremony," Snow added.

"Lancelot? Of the Round Table?" Robert asked, obviously impressed by that.

"Formerly, but yes...one in the same. Mother gave her life so that last bit of water from Lake Nostos could cure Snow of the curse that George rendered her barren with," David replied.

"She's the reason we could even have Emma and this little one," Snow mentioned fondly, as she put a hand to her stomach. Robert and James both seemed thoughtful at learning about that.

"And the second time?" Leopold asked, looking at them both.

"That was the official wedding...in front of our Kingdoms, after we took them back," Snow answered.

"It is extraordinary that you were able to gather enough support to take the Kingdom back, truly. I am not sure I have ever known a court to sanction a marriage of a royal to someone not of noble lineage, especially my own," Leopold mentioned, in a measured tone. Snow frowned.

"They did not know of his true identity when you married him, did they?" he questioned.

"It was none of their business," Snow responded tersely.

"To bring a fraudulent Prince into the Kingdom and deceive them? Snow...I would have never expected such from you," he chided.

"Well, you don't really know me…" she snapped.

"I am not some fragile little Princess that you can order around. Not then and not now," she continued.

"I don't want to hear about your court full of stuffy nobles who sat in their ivory chairs and looked down upon others. When I took the Throne, I dismissed them all and replaced them with people I love and trust," Snow informed him.

"Charming is my true love and if you had lived, I would have married him with or without your approval. I'd gladly live in the forest as a bandit rather than a castle if it meant being with him," she added.

"Oh, and I don't think you're in a place to judge. You were going to marry Cora of all people," Snow spat.

"I know you think I am judging you...but I only ever wanted the best for you. I saw...I saw what you went through after I was gone," he responded.

"Yes, I was a bandit and though it was hard, I wouldn't change that. It shaped who I am...I met David during that time. Whatever life you think I should have had...it's no life I want," she stated.

"I am sorry if I offended you," he offered.

"Our land was very different from this one. I am afraid I am still getting used to it," he added.

"You mean a world where women are equal?" Emma questioned.

"A world where they don't have to get married off to men twice their age in some sick business transaction? Is that what you would have done to my mother if you lived?" she continued. When she got up this morning, she had promised she would try to keep her mouth shut. But she did not like the way Leopold was looking at her mother or treating here father and something in it reminded her of a few of the father figures in some of the foster homes she had been in. She knew her mother had been through a lot, much like she had, but seeing it in front of her was too much to take. And to think, Snow had grown up thinking that this man's type of attention was normal. But she now saw the truth and sadness in her mother's eyes. She knew she now realized this was not the way a father was supposed to be with his child.

"Excuse me?" Leopold questioned. Emma smirked at his surprise. He was a King, so it didn't surprise her that he wasn't used to being called out and she had a feeling this world was going to be a severe shock to his system.

"You heard me. If you have lived, would you have tried to marry my mother off to some rotten Prince twice her age like some kind of trophy? Or...did you have other plans when you found out she wasn't actually related to you?" Emma asked. Leopold looked her in the eyes, instantly noticing they were the same eyes as Snow's.

"I don't know what you're talking about," he replied. Emma smirked.

"Yes you do...but that's okay, because you didn't get to live to do any of it. And now that you're back...I think you'll watch you step if you want to stay that way," she added. Persephone smirked and wasn't surprised to see that Eli looked lost at the whole thing.

"And you thought you'd be bored," Robert muttered to James. He scoffed.

"Yeah, guess you were right...though it would be even more entertaining if my niece would have punched him. I still thought I was going to be like the worst guy here. I'm a lot of things...but I'm definitely no lecher," James muttered back.

"He was a King...it used to be acceptable for him to be whatever he wanted," Robert said bitterly and James knew he was talking about more than just Leopold now. That made him curious about something else and figured it was a good time to change the subject.

"So...on that uncomfortable note, where is he?" James asked his brother.

"Where is who?" David asked in return.

"George," he stated.

"Locked up where he can't hurt anyone," David replied.

"That's another story," Snow mentioned.

"Perhaps you can regale this one for us too?" Robert asked. She nodded, as they began to tell them about what had occurred shortly after the curse broke.


Hades appeared just outside Zelena's farmhouse and knocked on the door. He wasn't surprised when it opened with magic to let him in and he peered inside. He made his way into the living room and heard the television going.

"And if you're just joining us, it's shaping up to be a beautiful day. But this is Storybrooke, after all, so the town could be on fire later for all we know, am I right?" the meteorologist joked.

"Why are you watching this tool?" Hades questioned.

"Oh I don't know...he's mildly entertaining and I'm really bored. Oh, and I refuse to watch reruns of those cheesy sitcoms or a bunch of squabbling hens talk about their opinions," Zelena quipped.

"That's right Storybrooke, we're in for a mild day with a high of fifty-three. Or maybe the whole town will go to hell, who knows, right? I mean, is this Storybrooke or Zombiebrooke?" he joked and was abruptly shut off by Hades.

"I'm surprised to see you. The way you talked...Cronus was going to destroy everything in his path," she mentioned.

"Oh, he will...he's just busy playing games and trying to make us think he's turned over a new leaf," Hades responded. She glanced his way.

"Sounds familiar," she commented.

"Don't compare us!" he snapped, as the tips of his hair started to flash blue, but he managed to keep it from a full blown flame. She smirked and poured herself some tea.

"Someone is testy...and I have a feeling it doesn't have anything to do with Lord Cronus," Zelena said, as she sipped at her tea.

"We are not having this conversation," he said, as he went to her liquor cabinet and she chuckled.

"Going for the hard stuff at nine in the morning. Oh sweetie...you've got it so bad," she jabbed and he glared at her.

"I do not have it bad," he protested. She raised an eyebrow.

"Really? And where is the woman you don't have it bad for right now?" she questioned. He seethed at the thought.

"She's home...having breakfast with her family," he said.

"And let me guess...Prince Eli was on the guest list and you weren't," she surmised.

"Are you enjoying torturing me?" he asked. She smirked.

"Very much so, but I think you're getting upset for nothing. I mean...she obviously didn't go to his room last night or bring him home with her. That's something," she replied.

"She did tell him that they were different people now...like they had to start over," he muttered.

"But she fell for him and he gave her everything I failed to," he added.

"They spent stolen moments together in the forest for a handful of months. And he may have given her the child she adores, but I know a fling when I see one," she replied.

"You think Eli and Persephone were just a fling?" he asked.

"Don't you? Had he lived...would Eli have married her? His Kingdom would have thrown a fit about his dalliance and the product of that dalliance. You told me that yourself...that's the whole reason you want to go back," she replied.

"Besides...even if they weren't a fling, he's too different now and so is she. He's very angry...and Persephone is a mama bear that will want to shield her Charming little cubs. One outburst in front of her precious little Snow will be all it takes," she said.

"You think?" he questioned. She smirked.

"You won't have to lift a finger," she stated.

"But...he is Snow's father. That will never change," he muttered. She snorted derisively.

"He is no more her father than Cora was my mother," she argued.

"Because of me," Hades reminded.

"Except you have said that he would have failed her even if he had lived. Are you going back on that now?" she questioned. He looked thoughtful for a moment.

"No...he would have. He will…" he stated.

"And what of Cronus? What kind of time do we have?" she inquired.

"It's hard to say...but I know he's scheming. He also returned with Deimos and Phobos. Deimos is a blatant evil, but Phobos has a cunning mind. If he has sided with Cronus, that could serious trouble. Ares always underestimated him, but I didn't. I knew exactly what I was doing when I chose him as a sacrifice to bring Deimos back," Hades responded.

"Then we need the ingredients for our spell and we need them now if we're going to put this particular genie back in his bottle, so to speak," she stated. He nodded.

"If I know Cronus...he's already scheming something and will give us the opportunities we need to gather what we need," he replied.

"I hope so...because I did not come to Storybrooke only to get usurped by a deity that has a taste for cannibalism," she quipped.

"Going through with our plan is the only way to stop him," he said. Even if he was having seconds thoughts about the whole thing, it didn't matter now. Turning back the clock was the only way to fix any of this. Otherwise, he was certain that everything and everyone he loved would become collateral damage in whatever scheme Cronus had planned...
