Now, most of these are about new characters or new story arcs, which are currentlly uneccasary. But, I don't know where else to put them, and I still wanna know what you guys think about them. So here you go, a few theories of how they can incorporate some stories. It's most unlikely they will ever include these though.

Origins of The Dark One/Princess & The Frog - Long ago, when Rumple was just a boy, there was a kingdom known as the Frontlands. The Duke and Empress of the Frontlands had a daughter, her name was Tiana, and Tiana was very young and had troubles finding a lover. Her parents foreced her into many attempts to bond with many princes, to engage in a merge of kingdoms, but they never worked out. There was also a mysterious man named Dr. Facilier, a powerful dark-magic user, much more powerful and older than Rumple. He was talented in many forms of magic, but he was most fond of making curses. A poor man named Zoso loved Tiana, and Tiana loved him as well. They loved each other, but they were forbidden to love, fore Zoso was a peasent and Tiana's parents wanted her to marry a prince. One day, Zoso was confronted by Dr. Facilier, who wanted to 'help' Zoso. Facilier told him that he would be able to marry Tiana, if he were to make she were to kiss him by the next four days. But he would have to go under Facilier's rules for this challenge. Zoso, foollishly agreeing, was turned into a frog. If Zoso didn't kiss Tiana by the next four days, he would be cursed to be a frog for eternity. Zoso hopped away in fear to attempt to kiss Tiana. As Zoso made his attempts at kissing Tiana, Facilier was busy and travelled to the Ogre's territory. He spread decite over them, telling them of the hatred humans have against them. Facilier started the first Ogre War , a huge event in the history of the Enchanted Forest. Zoso on the other hand had not been so lucky, as he only had one day left. Luckily, Tiana's fairy god mother, Mother Odie the White Fairy, saw the goodness in the frog, and attempted to help. She convinced Tiana that the frog was actually Zoso and told her to kiss him, and she did. He was then happilly turned back into a human. Before they were to get married, Odie told Zoso to slay Facilier with a special dagger, which was the only thing that can kill him. Zoso agreed, and went out to kill him with rage. He did so, but it came with a price. Before he was stabbed, Facilier casted a curse on the dagger, that his power and madness would live on inside the dagger and through who ever wields it. Zoso, being the one to do that, descended into madness and gained the powers of Facilier, turning into The Dark One. Tiana then came to see what had happened with Zoso, only to see a dark, hooded figure. Without recognizing him, Tiana ordered the guards and Hordor, the best knight in the Frontlands, to seize him. Hordor gained the dagger, and was now able to control this new "Dark One." Tiana, without knowing that Hordor was using Zoso as a weapon to gain soldiers in the Ogre War, married a prince named Naveen instead. Odie, being responsible for the death of a man, had her wings taken away by the Blue Fairy.

The Crane Wife  - There once was a poor man named Mushu, who lived a simple life in one of the villages that were not part of the Frontlands. One day, Mushu saw an injured crane by the lake. He healed it's wing and left to his home. The next day, a woman appeared at his house and immediatly asked him to marry her. Mushu, shoked, accepted and married the mysterious woman. The two were now hapilly living together, but they were poor. The woman decided that she will weave silk to sell for money. She did so in private and did it for hours and hours on end. The more she did it, however, the weaker she looked. Eventually, Mushu saw that she was in fact not a woman, but a "Kami," a legendary spirit that can transform into animals and humans. She plucked her own feathers to make the silk. Mushu, horrified, told his wife to no longer make the silk, fore he loved her and didn't want his wife to go through this much pain. The wife eventually had a baby, but died right after giving birth fore she was too weak from the weaving of her feathers. The doctor asked Mushu what his new child's name was gonna be. He replied with, "Mulan"

Mulan - One day, Hordor came to the Emperor and asked him if he would sign a treaty to initiate a merge with the Frontlands. The Emperor refused, and Hordor declared war on the villages (Hordor practically replaces the Huns in the Mulan story). Mushu fought in one of these battles, but was injured and had to retire. His wounds healed, and he taught Mulan how to fight. Eventually, Mulan grew up to be a fighter, and learned that the Emperor was taking all the former soldiers to fight in a battle that might win the war against the Frontlands. Mushu, being elderly now, sadly had to be taken to battle. Luckily, Mulan vollunteered to take his place. Mushu, devastated that his daughter was going into the fields of battle, seeked help. He met a Seer, who told him of a magic medallion that could give him the strength to save his daughter. But the Seer warned him that "magic comes with a price." Mushu travlled to the cave that held the medallion, and eventually gained it. When he wore it, he gained the power of a Dragon Spirit, and now called himself The Dragon. He then travelled to the battlefield where Mulan was taken and defeated the entire army with a breath of fire. Zoso, being in the battle along with Hordor, had something powerful. He had a magic bean, and he threw it at The Dragon. The bean took Mushu to The Land without Magic, leaving Mulan to live alone. Mulan, now saddened by the dissapearrance of her father, vowed to live heroicly and honorably in her father's name. The war with the Empire was over, fore The Ogre War had started and all the soldiers were needed for the assault on the ogres. Mulan was now a vigilante of sorts upon the Empire, fighting any who create crime and chaos among her homeland. Her latest goal however is to hunt a foul beast called the Yaoguai.

I hope you like these, and I have a little bit more but not enough time to write them. Tell me what you think about these.
