Welcome to Gaia! ::

Her head was hurting so bad, like she had hit it on something. She sat up, her eyes still closed. She sniffed the air, it didn't smell like her room. It smelt like damp earth and leave. Her eyes flipped open and she looked around. This was defiantly not Storybrooke, but she had seen pictures of this place, but where. She stood up, her knees wobbling a bit. she looked around and saw her older sister Faith laying on the damn earth as well.

Chloe ran to her, her blonde hair fanning out behind her, her blue eyes full of worry. "Faith? Faith please wake up!" she said as she shook her sister. How had they gotten here? She remembered waking up that morning, having her mom make breakfast and then walking to school with Faith, but after that is was a blank until she woke up here.

She looked around. She had figured they were in the Enchanted Forest, but she had no idea when they were or even where they were to be exact. She looked around the little clearing she had woken up in. Faith seemed to be fine, she was breathing but still out cold. She didn't want to venture far, but she knew she needed a fire. It looked like it would be dark soon.

She took one last look at her sister and went a little way into the forest to find some dry wood and rocks. After having found what she needed she walked back to the clearing and began to build the fire, using the rocked to make a little barrier for the fire. That was one thing down, now the next would be waiting to Faith woke up and then, finding shelter.

Chloe looked up from her fire-making as she heard Faith talk. She hadn't even though about how they got here. "I don't know how we go here. Last think I remember was Dad handing me my bag before we walked out." she said, returning to the fire. She struck her flint rocks together over and over. Good thing she had been raised by someone who had lived like this before. Being the daughter of storybook characters was pretty handy sometimes, except crazy stuff always seems to happen.

"Hell yeah!" She yelled as the fire sprang to life and she began to feel the warmth of the fire through the clothes she had worn to school that day, some black skinny jeans, a light grey tee. She shivered a bit in the cold, so she was elated as the warmth washed over her. She hadn't brought a jacket that day, so this was going to be rough.

Chloe stood, a few inches shorter than her older sister, and torn the parchment poster off the wall. It was indeed a hand drawn picture of their Gram, who still happened to look a lot like this. The paper didn't look old or tattered, just a little whitewashed from being in the sun. "So at least this gives us a place, but WHEN are we? You remember mom and dad's story about she finally let herself love him? They went to the past, what if we did too and not just came back here?" She knew the Enchanted Forest should be called home, it was after all where they truly belong, but she couldn't think of it as home right now. She wanted to be home, with her Mom and Dad. She was scare as hell, and she knew it was showing on her face.

"Fayfay? How are we going to get home? What if we never see Mom and Dad again? How are we going to survive out here?" She loaded her sisters with questions she knew neither of them could answer. Her head whipped around as she heard hoof beats, and in The Enchanted Forest, that was never good.

Chloe took the jacket given to her by sister. Why hadn't she thought to bring one with her? Or yeah, she had expected to go home after school and not end up in some random time and place. She just couldn't shake the feeling something was going to happen, and soon. Chloe looked over as her sister said the footsteps weren't horses.

She had heard horror stories from her Gram and Poppy about ogres and the ogre wars. She knew they were blind but that was about it. The stench came before the ogre burst into the clearing and Chloe couldn't stop the scream that escaped her lips. The thing was huge, as in twenty feet tall and about 3 tons huge. Her feet wouldn't move. She tried to pull her booted feet, but nothing.

The close the ogre got, the more fear filled her. She put her hands up and felt warmth run through her. She knew her mother had light magic, but she had never been allowed to try and see if she had magic as well. Emma didn't really like to use hers, so she didn't want either of the girls to try. Chloe closed her eyes as the ogre bust into the clearing. She screamed again and looked at her hands. They were glowing a yellow color. She threw the energy out of her hands and at the ogre.

As the light hit the ogre, it didn't do any damage, but slowed it down long enough for her feet to get moving. She tore off after Faith, catching up in just a few strides. She had always been a fast runner. She didn't stop running until she heard a pop, a gunshot. Who would have a gun here? She came to an abrupt stop and grabbed onto Faiths arm as she heard the ogre roar in rage and then a loud thump as if it had fallen to the ground.

"Faith, who would have a gun here? You don't think..." she didn't finish her question. Their parents had told them of the first time they had met. It had been when Emma had come back to the Enchanted Forest through a portal with their Gram. Could this be when they were? Her question was soon answered when four females burst into the clearing they were in. "Gram? Mom?
