The Curse Of Storybrooke

Prologue

There were only two people in Storybrooke that Regina had allowed to keep their old identities as well as their new ones, Jefferson the Mad Hatter and Peter Pan. She'd allowed Jefferson to keep his identity so that he could watch his daughter live a happy life with no memory of him, a fate that drove the already mad man completely insane. Peter felt that the Queen had a sick sense of humour when it came to his particular punishment. She'd forced him to become a man. This would have been the worst punishment of all for Peter Pan, to be a man and to have responsibilities, except Regina didn't turn him into a man of his forties with a dead end job that he hated, or with a wife and kids and a little pretty family home. What Regina did was worse, she turned him into a young man of twenty one. He had a part time job at a bar, lived in a dingy apartment and was studying to be a teacher. The reason this fate was worse was because Regina had left him with temptation. As a teacher he was forced to be around the teenagers he'd had as friends but more importantly he had to see Wendy every day. He was older but he wasn't too old that if he showed a little too much interest in her that he'd immediately get sent to jail. Peter knew Regina had deliberately created the ultimate temptation in Wendy. In this world sixteen year old Wendy looked completely different. She was not the sweet girl Peter knew. Wendy wore a short skirt with a low cut top, showing off the figure Peter never realized she had. Her hair was straightened and her face full of makeup. It was a cruel joke, the way Wendy looked at him in class made it clear that Wendy was crushing on him. There were other temptations too. Since he was twenty one he could drink alcohol, something he'd soon took a liking to. Women had a much more drastic effect on his body, his thoughts often drifted to less than innocent thoughts. It had been a rough twenty eight years but the moment time began to move again, Peter's life just got more complicated. At least living the same day over and over Peter could knew where to avoid certain temptations.

Each day Emma Swan was in Storybrooke without breaking the curse was torture….

Author's Note

Just been playing with this idea for a while now so thought I'd write a prologue and see if it attracts any interest... Just thought it would be a bit different with Peter having to face adulthood but without making him too old that I can't create a romance between him and Wendy.

Anyway let me know of your initial thoughts.
