Chapter 7: The Curse Strikes

Location: Church, Prince Charming, and Snow White's Wedding, Time: January, 10 Months before the Curse

Saber's POV

Tears were on my face. It was a happy day. Snow, and Prince James, also known as Prince Charming were getting married. Red was next to me, smiling, and a hand rested on her swollen belly. She was eight months along, and was due next month. The priest turned to James.

"Do you, Prince James, promise to take this woman to be your wife, and love her for all eternity?"

James smiled.

"I do."

"And do you, Snow White, promise to take this man to be your husband, and love him for all eternity?"

"I do."

"I now pronounce you husband and wife."

Everyone cheered, but Red cheered the loudest. I chuckled at my wife. Me, and Red got married the month before, per request by Granny, and well...everyone else.

Just as Snow, and Chraming were about to kiss the doors banged open. Everyone gasped. It was the Evil Queen.

"Sorry I'm late."

She stalked forward, while two knights rushed forward, and she knocked them aside. One of the dwarfs shouted.

"It's the Queen, run!"

Snow pulled out Charming's sword, pointing it towards her, and I pulled out my wand, and pointed it towards her as well.

"She's not a queen anymore."

I agreed as I kept my wand trained on her.

"She's nothing more then an evil witch. I've seen many people who used to be good go down the wrong path. You've had chances to change, Regina, but you ignored them. You need to leave now. We won't let you ruin this wedding."

"Oh, I'm not here to ruin anything. On the contrary, I've come to give you a gift."

I pressed my wand against her neck.

"We don't want anything from you."

Regina lifted her finger, and pushed my wand away from her neck.

"But you shall have it. My gift to you... is this happy, happy day, for tomorrow, my real work begins. You've made your vows. Now I make mine. Soon, everything you love, everything all of you love will be taken from you forever, and out of your suffering will rise my victory. I shall destroy your happiness, if it is the last thing I do."

The Evil Queen turned and walked towards the door. Soon, my anger reached it's breaking point as did Charming's.

"Hey!"

The Evil Queen turned around, and Charming launched his sword at her, and I shouted the killing curse at her.

"Avada Kedavra!"

The green light burst from the tip of the wand colliding with Charming's sword, and merging with it, but the Evil Queen vanished in a cloud of mist, just missing the collision of the sword, and the curse. Everyone gasped. I walked over to where the queen had vanished.

"We'll get her. And she will pay for the crimes that she's committed."

Location: Charming, and Snow's Castle, Red, and Saber's Room, Time: February, 8 months before the Curse

Saber's POV

I paced back and forth in the room we were given in Snow, and Charming's castle. Red was in our bed laying back.

"You're going to walk yourself into a hole if you keep doing that."

"I'm just worried...Our baby hasn't been born yet, and it's way past when he/she is supposed to be due."

"It's only been five days. Don't worry, she'll be here soooh!"

"Red? What is it?"

"It's time!"

I panicked, but called for the dwarfs.

"Dwarfs? Anyone? Find Doc! Red's in labor!"

A couple of screams, yells, and multiple curses thrown at me later, a soft cry rang out through the castle. Our beautiful baby girl was born. She had beautiful brown hair, and my bright blue eyes. I sat next to Red, my arm wrapped around her.

"She's beautiful. Do we have a name picked out?"

Red shook her head.

"No...all I had planned were boy names."

I thought for a moment.

"Anita..."

Red looked up.

"You want to name her after my mother?"

"Yeah..."

Red smiled.

"I think that's a wonderful idea. Anita Lucas."

Suddenly, Granny came through the door.

"I came as soon as I heard. May I see my great-grandchild?"

Red nodded before handing me Anita, and I passed her off to Granny.

"What's her name?"

"Anita Lucas."

Granny nodded.

"How will you raise her?"

"If she's like Red, we'll raise her the way Red wants to be. A human, and a wolf. If the wolf is a part of her, she must accept both sides."

Granny nodded, pleased with my answer.

"Then I will try to help you, and Red. Every step of the way. Welcome to Earth, Anita."

Anita giggled, and burbled in joy. The moment was good, but the Evil Queen's threat still lurked in the darkness.

Location: Snow, and Prince Charming's Castle, Time: August, 2 Months before the Curse

Saber's POV

"I say, we fight!."

It was another one of those meetings again. Charming was beyond mad. He wanted to fight the Queen, as did I, but stooping down to her level wouldn't be the right thing to do. I spoke up.

"I would like to fight, but it's not the right thing to do. We should just take her magic away, then she's powerless. And there would be no more bloodshed."

Jiminy flew over to the group.

"Saber is right. Fighting is a bad idea. Giving into one's dark side never accomplishes anything."

But Charming wasn't listening.

"And how many wars has a clear conscience now? We need to take the Queen out before she can inflict her curse."

Doc was worried.

"Can we even trust Rumpelstiltskin?"

"I've sent my men into the forest. The animals abuzz with the Queen's plan. This is going to happen, unless we do something."

Snow looked up.

"There's no point. The future is written."

Charming shook his head.

"No. I refuse to believe that. Good can't just lose."

I was in deep thought. I lost my friends to death, and imprisonment.

"Good can lose...but we fight our hardest to push back evil. There's no getting rid of either side. There must always be an equal. Good...and evil. I know from experience. We lose battles, but we learn from them to win wars. We can't give up. There will always be good fighting evil, and as long as we have each other, we will win."

Charming nodded.

"Snow...if you believe Rumpelstiltskin about the curse, then you must believe him about our child. She will be the Savior."

Suddenly, the door clanged open, and some of the knights brought in a tree trunk. David was confused.

"What the hell is this?"

I was shocked.

"Charming, there is a baby in the room!"

I pointed to Red who was covering our child's ears.

"Sorry, Saber."

Suddenly, the Blue Fairy appeared.

"Our only hope of saving Snow's child."

Grumpy was confused.

"A tree? Our fate rests on a tree? Let's get back to the fighting thing."

Blue continued.

"The tree is enchanted. If fashioned into a vessel, it can ward off any curse. Geppeto, can you build such a thing?"

The man across from me nodded.

"Me, and my boy...we can do it."

Pinocchio popped his head up over the table, and waved. Blue nodded.

"We must have faith. This will work. There is, however, a catch. The enchantment is indeed powerful, but all power has it's limits, and this tree can only protect one."

Location: Snow, and Prince Charming's Castle, Time: October 23, The Day of the Curse

Saber's POV

I was on patrol with the knights, and Grumpy, watching for any sign of the curse. I knew it was going to happen, it was just a matter of when. Suddenly, I heard thunder crashing, and wind roaring. Grumpy looked towards a valley, and gasped.

Dark green storm clouds were heading towards the castle.

"The curse! It's here!"

Alarm bells rang, and everyone was put on high alert. I ran through the castle to find Red, and Anita. They were huddled in a corner in our room.

"It's going to be okay, Anita. We're going to fine. Saber...I'm scared."

"It's going to be fine, Red. The Savior will return."

"But what if she doesn't?"

"We have to have faith."

"There must be something we can do."

I thought for a moment.

"There might be something. There is a spell. It might not protect us fully, but it can protect our memories."

"How?"

"It will create a protective bubble around us. We'll still be sent to wherever we're going, but at least we'll be together. Are you ready?"

Red nodded, and I shouted out the spell.

"Protego Maxima!"

A light-sliver colored shield appeared, and covered us just as the Queen's curse engulfed the room.

Location: The Forests of Maine, Time: October 23, 1983, 9:00 P.M.

Saber's POV

I awoke slowly on the ground. My vision was slightly blurred. I looked to my right, and there was Red, holding Anita protectively. I slowly stood up, and ran over to her.

"Red! You okay?"

Red nodded.

"We're fine...where are we?"

I sighed.

"My world...Where I was born..."

That's the end for this story! Stay tuned for the sequel!

Avada Kedavra: Causes instant death to the victim, is accompanied by a flash of green light and a rushing noise; there is no known counter-curse, although there are a number of ways to prevent death by it, such as hitting it with another spell in mid-flight, dodging it, or interrupting the caster. It is one of the three Unforgivable Curses.

Protego Maxima: A powerful shield charm against dark magic. Was so powerful that it could also disintegrate people that came too close.
