"You have a sister," Emma asked Neal.

When Neal came back home that afternoon Emma was surprised at what he told her. Basically the cliff notes version was this: a some random stranger, that worked for some mysterious higher powers, came to town to tell them that the supposed long lost daughter of Rumplestiltkin was in fact alive and living in New York City. Now three generations of the Gold family were going on a road trip to find her.

"I know, right? I still can't believe it," Neal said putting the last of his clothes in his suitcase.

"And you trust this Whistler guy? He could be lying," Emma pointed out.

"Maybe, but I got to know Emma. I always wanted a younger sibling but than my mother ran off with Hook and that never happened. Plus, you didn't see Papa back at the shop. When he heard the news that his daughter is alive it was like a light went off inside of him. He only looks that way with either me, Belle, or Henry. Papa has done terrible things but at the root of it family means everything to him," Neal explained.

If anyone would understand the importance of family it was Emma.

"I understand. I do. Just be careful," she said.

Neal leans forward and kisses her.

"I'll be fine," he said.

"All right. But keep an eye on Henry," she reminded him.

"Don't worry so much. Henry is in good hands. Plus, it's a good chance for him to bound with his dad and grandpa."

"Dad! Grandpa's here!" Henry called from downstairs.

"I'll be right down buddy," Neal replied.

He grabbed his suitcase and headed downstairs followed by Emma. Henry was in the living talking with Rumple and Belle, who came along to bid everyone good bye.

"Are you all set, son," Rumple asked Neal.

"Yeah, I'm ready to go," he nodded.

"Me too! Operation Family Reunion is on," Henry said proudly.

The adults always thought Henry's little codenames were cute.

"Cute codename, kid."

Everyone turned to see Whistler coming out of the kitchen eating a sandwich.

"Who are you," Belle asked curious.

"And why are you in our house eating a sandwich," Emma asked annoyed.

"My name is Whistler. You guys were busy so I thought I would make myself at home. By the way, you're out of turkey," Whistler said taking another bite of his sandwich.

Emma was about to lunge at the little man but Neal held him back.

"So Whistler, what can you tell us about my sister," he asked curious.

"All kinds of things. Her full name is Willow Danielle Rosenberg. She's super smart. She's really good at computers. She's a witch..."

"My daughter is a witch," Rumple asked surprised.

Whistler just gave him a look.

"Considering who her father is and the town she grew up in. I'm not surprised," he said.

"What town are you talking about," Belle asked curious.

"Sunnydale."

Emma eyes grew wide at the mention of the name.

"You mean that town in California that sank," she asked shocked.

"That's the one," Whistler said finishing his sandwich.

"I don't understand. How can an entire town just sink," Henry wondered.

"Well junior, a lot people will say that it was some kind of freak accident but in truth it's because of the Hellmouth," he said.

Now it was Rumple looked even more surprise.

"She grew up on a Hellmouth and survived," he asked.

"What's a Hellmouth," Belle asked confused.

"It's basically a hot spot that draws in all kinds of supernatural forces. Witches, vampires, werewolves, demons, zombies hell gods..." Whistler counted off the baddies.

"All right! We get the picture," Neal said.

"Well, let's go boys. Time to hit the open road," Whistler said.

"Mr. Whistler is right. If we don't leave now we'll never get to New York on time," Rumple said.

Rumple, Neal and Henry grabbed their bags and headed out the door with Whistler, Emma and Belle bringing up the rare. They decided to take Rumple's car since he had more room. As they put their bags in the car they said their good byes.

"Call me as soon as you get there," Belle said to Rumple.

"Of course, sweetheart," he smiled.

He gives her a good bye kiss.

Rumple turns to Emma and nods, before getting into the driver's seat.

Henry gives his mom a big hug.

"Have a good time kid. And be safe," Emma told him.

"I promise," Henry nodded.

Neal gives Emma one last kiss good bye before getting into the passenger next to his father. Henry was in the backseat with Whistler.

"Come on grandpa! Let's go!" Henry said excitedly.

Rumple smiled at the boy before starting the car. And soon the three men and boy were off.

Meanwhile in New York

Willow was driving in her car as pulled up in front of New York City Elementary. She watched as the kids began to leave the school either heading for the buses or their parents car. Soon she sees a red head girl running toward the car.

"Hi mom," she greeted her.

"Hey Tara," Willow hugs her daughter.

"How was school today?"

"It was good. I passed my match test," Tara smiled.

"That's great honey. I'm proud of you."

After the fall of Sunnydale Willow and the rest of the Scooby Doo gang decided to do their own thing. Buffy and Dawn were now living in Rome. Giles was running the new Watcher's Council. Faith was helping train new slayers along with Giles. Xander was traveling the world. As for Willow, she decided to live a normal life for while. Well, as normal for the most powerful witch in the western hemisphere can be. She still dealt with the supernatural. She couldn't escape from it even if she wanted to. Now she was a single mom with a 11-year-old daughter and she had to come first.

Yup, Tara Anyaka Rosenberg was her everything.

Author's Note: Surprise! I bet you weren't expecting that. So questions: Willow is a mom? She named her daughter Tara? Who is the girl's father? How will Willow react to new members of her family? Stay tuned!
