I think Emma, Snow, Charming, Belle, and Zelena are simply somewhere else in present day, because the curse only took Regina, Hook, and Rumple for reasons. They could also do that they are in several places like Emma is trapped somewhere, Snow and Charming are in SB or EF ruling, Belle is on a mission somewhere, and Zelena is ruling Oz. Right now they have a lot of options though.
