A.N Just to let you guys know, when a person's name is in bold it means that they are from the present, if any of you guys have a better idea for how to do it I would appreciate it since there will be more scenes with two of the same characters in the coming chapters.

Chapter one
"Can we do everything later, with a glass of wine…several bottles," Emma sighed as she tried desperately to keep walking.
It was a lot to process.
For some reason she seemingly had no problem believing that the curse had been real, embedding a sword in a dragon can do that to a person. It was the fact that she now had parents who wanted to know everything and anything about her. They cared and that was not something she was prepared for since she was moved to the fifth or sixth foster home in one year.
Mary Margaret looked as if she were about to make a retort, but they were collectively distracted by the sight of townspeople running towards Milfin Street, led by Whale.
Henry looked to Emma with pleading eyes. The boy was clearly confused, he knew he had every right to be angry with his lying mother, but that didn't mean that he was prepared to lose her completely.
As if to confirm their theories, Archie ran up to the group, "please you have to help. Doctor Whale has whipped everyone up into a frenzy, they're marching towards Regina's house. They're going to kill her."
"Great, lets watch," Grumpy grumbled.
Emma and Henry instantly gave the dwarf a dirty look, but he just rolled his eyes
"You can't allow them to sink to her level," Archie argued, "you have to help her."
David and Mary Margaret exchanged a look, and David nodded, "if Blue is right than Regina could have her magic, they could be walking into a slaughter."
With that, the group of heroes began to follow the mob.


"You wanted your queen, well my dears, here she is!" Regina brought her hands down, the silence quickly crashed away and she looked desperately around trying to figure out what happened.
"She's powerless," she vaguely recognized one of the mob members shout, before they collectively began to walk towards her.
Subconsciously, she stepped away until her back hit the wall, Whale instantly stepped forward with a huge, vengeful grin on his face.
For a moment, Regina felt fear, but only for a moment.
She was not afraid of death in any way, she was afraid for Henry's future. She had yet to transfer all of her assets into the sheriff's name until Henry turned eighteen and in what could be her final moments, all she could think was that she hoped that Miss Swan had a decent lawyer.
"Let her go," she vaguely recognized someone say, though for some reason it felt too calm to be who she thought it was.
Opening her eyes slowly, she was proved wrong, the voice indeed belonged to Emma Swan, but at the same time she was sure that it couldn't possibly be the same person that she admittedly had a felt some attraction to, if she were being honest she was a lot hotter than she had ever seen her. As her eyes raked over her body, she felt words fail her.
For one she was dressed all in black leather that the queen was sure that she wasn't wearing just ten minutes ago, her hair was tied back into a pony tail and she looked slightly more pale than usual. The most striking difference however, was her eyes. They were gold with a few specks of emerald around the iris. To top all of this off, the savior had a small smirk that just reeked of evil.
"Let her go," someone else called, sounding much more frantic and sheriff-like.
Whale's arms fell to his side without further prodding, and stepped away to look between the two Emma's.
Emma furrowed her brow at the crowd's reaction, before she finally turned to see herself leaning against one of the beams, and her mouth fell open, causing her other self to roll her eyes and walk passed her.
Whale blinked a few times before he finally realized why he had come here, and jumped forward to grab the mayor, but before he touched her, he went flying backwards and rolled down the steps.
The crowd gasped.
"Oh, calm down," Emma drawled, "I did warn him." Turning to Regina, she smirked at the woman's dumbfounded expression, "relax your majesty, your acting like that's the first time you've seen magic."
Regina blinked a few times, and finally managed to compose herself when she saw the looks of complete horror on the Charming's faces, and she would be lying if that didn't make her feel better, except for Henry's of course.
"Who are you?" the boy choked out, David grabbed him before he could step forward.
Emma turned, and for a split second she reveled in how cute her ten year old son looked, but that quickly fell away as she replied mockingly, "I'm your real mom."
Henry took a step back into his grandfather, "no you're not, Emma's right there."
Regina internally winced, but decided that now was certainly not the time to dwell on her emotional pain.
"Never heard of time travel?"
Mary Margaret stepped forward tentatively, "you're from the future?"
Emma looked at the woman distastefully, which caused her to shrink away slightly, "why? Did I not turn out the way you had always hoped, mother?"
Mary Margaret suddenly felt strangely torn between happiness for Emma's last word, and horror at the implications of everything she was seeing. She had been trying to figure out why her eyes were so familiar, and she now realized just who they reminded her of, though she hoped she was wrong.
"Are you the Dark One?"
"What?" Emma asked, she knew she had a lot to learn about all of this fairytale crap, but she was pretty sure that she had never heard those words before. Though she would be lying if this didn't make her more curious than she usually would have been, after all it seemed to be her future.
The future Emma turned to look at her absolutely mortified double, and just smirked, "you know, Mr Gold," she laughed as the confusion only seemed to increase. Turning back to Regina who had failed to say a word, she said, "I must say, your majesty, I'm impressed that you never killed me, I was truly irritating."
Regina raised one perfectly plucked eyebrow, she would've agreed had her son not been there, so instead she said, desperately trying to maintain her mask of calm, "and why are you here?"
"Just doing as I'm told," Emma chuckled darkly, "speaking of which, I should probably get on with it."
Slowly she approached the mayor and she conjured a dagger, savouring in the slight fear that slipped through her façade.
"No," Henry shouted squirming out of David's grip and standing in front of his mother.
Emma just about managed to shake off the shock at seeing herself perform magic for a second time and made to grab her son, but she was frozen in place in the next moment.
"Henry, always getting in the way," her future self tutted, "I suppose it doesn't matter what order I do it in."
Henry's brow furrowed, Regina was about to jump forward to stop the blonde from bringing the dagger down, but a purple glow enveloped the Dark One's arm, stopping her mere inches away from stabbing her son.
Emma rolled her eyes, "persistent aren't we?"
Regina and the Charming's furrowed their brows, clearly confused as to whom she was talking to, but it didn't take long before they got their answer.
"I suppose it is a rather annoying trait," a smooth female voice sighed from behind Emma, and collective gasps from the crowd told everyone just who it was. "But did you honestly think I wouldn't follow you to save our son?"
