ONCE UPON A TIME, AN Evil Queen fulfilled her promise to Snow White and cast a curse so vile it ripped them from their homes and took them to a new land where they had no idea who they were and the lives they had before. The only hope for the people of the Enchanted Forest was the Saviour who was born just minutes before the thick purple smoke blanketed their realm. With the help of ten year old Isla Jones and her father, Indiana, Prince Charming made it to the wardrobe in time to send his daughter away to safety just as the Evil Queen approached.

For twenty eight blurry years, Isla and her father have been living as Faith and Julius Hunt, one of them being best friend's with the Mayor's kid, the other a History teacher at the local school. But when their teacher, Mary Margaret Blanchard, gave Henry a very special book, everything changed. The curious boy, armed with a heart full of belief and a book of fairytales, left Storybrooke in an attempt to find his birth mother who he was convinced was the Saviour written about on the magical pages.

Faith and Henry must work together to try and get Emma to believe in the curse that they know has the town stuck in a trance, but what they could've never seen coming was developing a bond so deep and meaningful that it starts to make Faith remember who she was. Because the book in Henry's hands may be extremely powerful, but his heart was so much more.

"I was born with a soul that is way too sensitive for this cold and ugly world, I have always felt things deeply and differently than most people. That has always been my blessing and my curse."

notes:

• Henry and Isla don't really get together until Season 3b - when the wicked witch comes to town - because they may have a special bond but they feel as if they're too young for a relationship. This changes when they see each other after a year and they get together after Henry remembers.

• Isla has a great relationship with her father and aspires to be like him when she's older.

• She's quite sassy but sweet and protective at the same time. Where she comes from, Phoenixes are said to be guardians and protectors, which definitely fits her personality.

ACT ONE
ouat season 1

• After bringing his birth mother back to town with him, Henry and Faith are desperate to prove they're right about the curse and work together to try and accomplish their goal. Operation Cobra is ago! Faith mainly sticks with Henry and the rest of the time she's with her father. She's with Henry when he goes into the mines and never leaves his bedside after he ate the poisoned desert. They have a strong bond which causes Faith to develop headaches because her mind is trying to fight the curse. As soon as Emma breaks the curse, they all remember who they are and Isla Jones is back.

ACT TWO
ouat season 2

• Isla is sucked into Jefferson's hat along with Emma and Snow where she reunites with an old friend of hers, Mulan, who believes the older women had kidnapped her. Cora is frightened of Isla due to her being a Phoenix, but she knows how to kill her, permanently, because even Immortals have their weaknesses. Regina and Isla try to stop the doomsday device because Isla is an immortal Phoenix and can control fire, so she knew she had to help. When she sees Henry get kidnapped, it breaks her heart but they are gone before she can do anything.

ACT THREE
ouat season 3a

• Once on Neverland, Isla is determined to save Henry and her and her father are a great help because during their treasure hunting days, they have survived a variety of different terrains. When they see Pan, Isla punches him in the face, ordering him to take them to Henry. She's the only one that sees something off with Henry - who is actually Pan - and is the first to realise they've swapped bodies. At the end, after Pan cast his curse, they said goodbye, but Isla doesn't go with them and gets taken along with the curse.

ACT FOUR
ouat season 3b

• When Henry and Emma return to find that everyone is missing a year of their memories, Isla goes to hug him but realises he doesn't remember and stops herself. She's heartbroken over the fact that Henry doesn't know who she is and that she has to hide who she really is from him. To distract herself from Henry, Isla joins the witch hunt. When Isla kisses his forehead, his memories are restored, meaning that they are each other's true love. This is around the time they get together. To make her time travel spell work, Zelena forces Isla into the middle of the circle where she's bound in chains, because Phoenixes have a lot of power, but she's rescued before anything happens.

ACT FIVE
ouat season 4a

• Frozen is in town and Isla gets trapped alongside Emma in the ice wall, but the ice neutralises her fire, freezing her, but not as quickly as Emma. The Snow Queen is also in Storybrooke and only hinders their plans to help Elsa to find her sister. The curse of shattered sight causes everyone to go insane, even Isla, who had Elsa create her an ice cage to at least show her down, it worked.

• At lot of stuff has happened in the past couple of years, but Henry and Isla's relationship is as strong as ever. The Queens of Darkness have now come to Storybrooke in search of the very thing Henry, Isla and Regina are aka Operation Mongoose. Isla is one of the ones sucked into the Heroes and Villains book which left Henry to save his family all alone. The fact that Isla has the ability to fight a curse means she doesn't get brainwashed into thinking she's a villain and is instead stuck in the middle with no idea what to believe. Henry helps her figure it out when he finds her sat by the docks where he finds Hook. After the book drama is all over and the darkness is released from Gold, Isla goes for the Dagger, but Emma pushes her out of the way and takes it instead.

Emma has gone fully Dark Swan and Henry is heartbroken about it, but luckily, he has Isla to help him. It ends with several previously deceased Dark Ones trying to switch places with the living - but not Isla because she isn't fully alive - before Hook gets Emma to run him through with Excalibur.

Isla is a single mother to her, you can decide how many children, that go behind her back to find who they believe is their father, Henry Mills. Isla and Henry start all over again whilst their kid/kids try and convince them of the curse. Total Deja vu. Isla is once again fighting the curse and gets more and more headaches the more time she spends with Henry. Her best friend's (Jacinda's) Evil Stepmother practically runs the entire area. The curse is eventually broken with a lot of mishaps along the way and the Mills family is happy.

• Maybe an epilogue a few years later could be written, but the ending of the show seems also very suitable.
