A princess is riding on a horse until she find a glass coffin surrounded by seven fairies.

"You're too late," one of them says sadly. "She's gone."

"No! Open it!" the princess shouts. "I want to kiss him. Just one last time."

The fairies open the glass coffin, and the princess kisses the man inside it. A flash of light surround the whole place and the man wakes up.

"You found me," the man says.

"Of course I did," the princess replies. "I will always find you."

"Do you promise?" the man asks.

== SOME TIME LATER ==

They are now at a wedding with lots of people.

"I do," the prince says.

"And do you, Baelfire, promise to take this woman to be your husband, and love her for all eternity?" the bishop asks.

"I do," Bae replies.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife."

The audience cheers until the wedding is interrupted by a man in dark clothing.

"Sorry, I'm late," the man says.

"It's the Dark King! Run!" one of the guests shouts as the Dark King uses magic to push the guards out of his way.

"He's not a king anymore! He's nothing but a dark wizard!" Bae shouts.

"You know this is your fault, Bae," the Dark King says. "Long ago, you took away my chance to be happy. But now, I came to give you a gift."

"I want NOTHING from you!" Baelfire shouts at the Dark King.

"I know you don't," the Dark King responds, "But you see, my gift to you is this happy, happy day. Tomorrow, everything you love, everything ALL of you love, will be taken away from you. That is my happy ending. And I shall destroy your happiness, even if it the last thing I do!"

The princess throws a sword at the Dark King, but he disappears in a purple smoke of magic and so does the sword.

== BOSTON, 2011 ==

A picture of the previous scene, where Bae and the princess kiss, is shown in a book held by a 10-year-old girl.

"Is that a good book?" a woman asks.

"It's more than a book," the 10-year-old girl replies.

Soon, an announcement starts. "Boston sub-station. Thank you for riding Greyhound."

The 10-year-old gets off the bus and enters a taxi.

== IN A RESTAURANT ==

"Killian," a woman says as a handsome-looking black-haired man walks towards the table where she sits.

"Cleo," Killian responds. "You look relieved."

"Well, it's the internet," Cleo says. "You know. People could just use fake pictures."

"Yeah," Killian responds. "I know. Anyway, today is my birthday."

"Your birthday?" Cleo asks. "Why aren't you spending it with your friends?"

"I don't have any friends," Killian replies. "You see, I'm kind of a loner."

"What about your family?" Cleo asks.

"I have no family," Killian tells. "I never knew my parents."

"You, Killian, are the most handsome friendless orphan I've ever met," Cleo says.
