Author's note: I'm doing scenes back and forth, from 6 weeks ago and present. 6 weeks ago, they have theirs names used in the enchanted forest and in Storybrooke will be used the names what was given them. I hope that it makes sense.

Now on with the story.

Emma walked in the room and saw her double sitting at the table, drinking some wine. "Did they believed you?" Her double asked to her.

"Yes, of course they believed it." Emma turned into Caitlynn again. "They even asked where I was."

"Mission accomplished." Emma comment as she held up her wine.

"I can't drink." Caitlynn rubbed on her small bump.

"I know." Emma nodded. "I will drink for both of us."

"Hmm mmm." Caitlynn hummed as then she walked to the refrigerator and grabbed some food. "Hmmm, the baby is making me hungry."

"Yeah, I can tell." Emma nodded.

Just then, Caitlynn had a thought. "I think we should tell Henry what happened and my mom and dad."

"Henry's first." Emma comment, looking at her.

"If he asks for you." Caitlynn took a bite into her food.

"He will." Emma told her firmly.

"I know." Caitlynn nodded. "My adopted parents would want to know what's really going on. They even found it strange that I wasn't there at all."

Emma nodded to her. "Okay."

The birds were chirping as Henry comment. "Wow."

"Wow is right." Charming comment also.

"I am so not dressed for this." Snow sighed, holding her baby in her arms still.

"His Royal Highness, King Arthur." A man announced.

Then, King Arthur came to them and told. "And now allow me to introduce the loveliest creature in all of Camelot... my Queen, Guinevere."

Just then, Queen Guinevere walked down the stairs, when she arrived by them, they all bowed as Snow told her. "Your Majesty."

"The pleasure is ours." Queen Guinevere took her husband's hand. "We have been awaiting your arrival from the moment we heard Merlin's prophecy."

"Well, we hope you haven't been waiting too long." Charming joked.

"Only a decade or so." King Arthur joked back.

Charming chuckled. "Ah, sorry."

"I'll wager it's been worth the wait." King Arthur looked at them all. "And as a bonus, it's given us more than enough time to prepare a ball in your honour tonight."

Grumpy looked at Granny. "Oh, see, told you we should come. Look what we've been missing out on."

"I like any party I don't have to cater." Granny comment.

"So do we." Grumpy told her.

Then, Zelena whispered to her sister. "Is this really necessary?"

"You're lucky you're not locked in Granny's freezer." Regina whispered back.

"Take it off." Zelena held up her wrist that had a cove on. "Or I tell Arthur he just welcomed the Dark One into his..." Just then Regina used her magic on her sister, to silence her.

"What's that, sis?" She leaned a little closer to Zelena. "I can't hear you." She mocked. "No one here knows who we are, and it's gonna stay that way. So you can either behave and pretend to be my mute handmaiden or go back to Granny's where you can rely on Doc for prenatal care."
