A few years after the “Happily ever after” of our dear heroes, we meet the second generation of fairy tales; Your children.
Lillyan Swan Jones (Lylla) never thought it fair that her parents had all the fun of being the classic fairy tales, the ones who are the heroes, and going on adventures, saving kingdoms and finding their true love.
So when her uncle Neal says he's found a way out of Storybrook and into other realms, she finally sees the chance she's been waiting for to live her dream. Along with her best friend Robin, her reluctant twin brother Luke, and immature uncle Neal, they run away from their parents leaving them with the excuse that they would just go camping for a few days as they would never understand their motives.
But Neal had invited some of his friends who didn't get along so well with either of the twins or Robin.
Melody Castle is the daughter of Ariel and Prince Eric, both of whom died a few years ago. She had a complicated history, everyone only knew that until a few years ago she lived in a house on the beach that had a huge wall separating them from the sea. And after her parents died, she'd been adopted by Regina Mills, moved in with the mayor and gone to the same school as everyone else, but it wasn't like a lot of people wanted to make friends with a weird girl who'd never been to school. school in his life, just Neal and his other best friend, Gideon Gold.
Gideon was the other friend that Neal had invited to go on his adventures, in fact the boy was the one who had gotten the magic bean in the first place. The reason he didn't get along with the twins and most of the popular ones at his school was the fact that the old version of him, the version of himself that had been kidnapped and raised by the Black Fairy, had tried to kill the Savior. Rumple had kept it a secret so that his son wouldn't be treated differently, but the gossip ended up spreading, and since the adults didn't know about it, there was no way to explain the real reason for all that, making his son quite hated by him. both twins and many students at the school.
Of course, there was also a rumor that he used to hook up with other boys, which didn't bother a lot of people, but there were always a few, just like his father. If anyone dared say something like that about their son, they would probably know the Dark One better.
But it wasn't as if Melody or Gideon cared for either of them, or were affected by any provocation. On the contrary, if someone dared to say something offensive in front of you, both would fall for the blow.
Now Robin, Luke and Lylla would have to deal with Neal and his moody friends Gideon and Melody if they were to truly live their own adventures and write their own story. But of course, being children of who they are, they have a destiny just as important. Full of struggles, adventures, losses, friendships, family, and of course, true love.
