Prologue: The Beginning of the Enemies

In the wonders of times, a woman named Emma Swan, through her difficult experiences of the childhood to the womanhood during her orphan life. She never celebrated her birthday since no one cares about her but just took her in to be his or her meal ticket. Every minute, hours and even days, she is working as a detective for New York Police Department and has no time for the vacations that she was supposed to take a break from being a workaholic.

Emma's name is famous for her reputation as a bail bonds person for 10 years. Her name never changed since she decided to choose Swan because of her experience with The Swan Family since she was 12 years old until she found out that she had to go back to group home because of their monetary issues. In her disappointment of The Swan family, Emma loved them because they really took care of her very well as a daughter. She never had a chance to be a real daughter but she felt comfortable when The Swan family were around her.

Until her biggest regret of her teenage years, Emma was moving from a place to place, she decided to settle down in Boston and bumped into her first love, Neal Cassidy. They were 17 at that time and hopelessly in love with each other. Since the first love at the sight, Neal took her around in Boston and offered her to stay at his apartment. Emma didn't know about Neal's life or his criminal records throughout his 5 years as a thief. But in their eyes, they were very in love toward their time of being together for the first time.

Through their first and last date, Neal took her to a nice bar with no exceptions for the fancy things around them. Few hours of talking, laughter, teasing and kissing, Neal took it too far to take an advantage of breaking Emma's virginity on that night. He carried her to drink too much of consumptions on the alcohol all night until the bar called for a last round of drinks. He barely drinks a beer since their date started and kept his company around Emma for the drinks. Finally, Neal took her back to his place and had a sex. Emma was drunk and laughed for no reason until she fell asleep on the bed while she was half-naked with Neal.

The first thing in the morning, Neal woke up and looked at Emma beside him. He decided to pack his things and didn't leave a note for Emma about what happened on their first date. So he left and abandoned her with $100 grand in the savings and the 2007 Honda Civic LX in the parking lot. During the noon, Emma woke up and looked around in the apartment. She wondered about Neal's disappearance and found no answer from her calls on Neal's name. Emma took a shower and made a lunch then she left for her work as a bail bonds person. Until her phone beeped, she took a call from her boss, Patrick and took a case to arrest a jewel guy who missed his court trial few times.

Few months later, Emma found out that she was pregnant with a baby boy but had no idea how to find Neal to tell him that she have his baby. But she decided to give up her baby for an adoption. The adoption papers were finalized with her temporary lawyer and made a decision to write a note for a family to take her baby for a best chance to live in a better life that she can't afford for her child. Toward his birth, he was taken to the social worker for a new family during her stay in the hospital. Emma was in her grief for not seeing her child to grow up. But she knew that she did a right thing to do for her child. In few weeks later, she decided to get a tattoo for her child's birthdate on her hip to honor her child on the birthday celebration every year since the birth of the life.

Emma was taken back by her lack of knowledge through the dates with men and had no luck with them. So, she thought about leaving Boston to New York for a position in New York Police Department. Then she packed everything and took care of paperwork with her landlord then drove to Manhattan, New York. Emma was working as a police in her first year to work with the force. The NYPD was impressed with her talents in her bail bonds years. In her search of the apartment, she found a nice place with a great view of New York City in her living room. The rent was not bad for her to live alone on her own. No strings attached at all. She continued working her ass up to get a promotion for becoming a detective in three years. In her experience as a detective, she was a young lady in history for working her hands off to grab an opportunity as a detective. No one has been done that before than the one and only Emma Swan. She is working for NYPD for 5 years now.
