Ok, so here is a doozy that I haven't read yet. I also read today that the writers indicated the real story hasn't been guessed yet. To preface, remember how OUAT likes to link stories that were previously not linked. Which leads me to believe the following....

Baelfire = Peter Pan

Tamara = Tinkerbell or Tink's Grandaughter

Greg Mendell = A Lost Boy

Neverland and Pleasure Island = the same place

OK, now that I've thrown that out there. Here is my reasoning....

We have all pretty much pegged Baelfire as Peter Pan. I'll leave that one alone.

I definitely belive Greg/Owen went to Neverland as a boy and became a Lost Boy, but didn't stay very long so he could remember and find his father. He developed a relationship with the fairles (who protect and love the Lost Boys). He explained his story and his fairy (possibly Tink) decided to help him. If Greg/Owen blamed magic for his fathers death, then he would want to rid the world of magic. The only "magic" that fairies possess (and the only magic that exists in Neverland) is fairy dust. Remember, all Lost Boys were real children from the real world...including our Peter Pan. Now, why wouldn't Bae recognize Greg/Owen as a Lost Boy? I believe this is because Bae was already back in the real world before Greg/Owen showed up. Therefore, he wouldn't recognize him. Also, Greg doesn't seem to have a vendetta which involves Bae, even though Tamara has developed a relationship with him. I have heard of people talking about his "star wars" ring tone.... boy who never grew up anyone??? This would also be interesting becuase Greg hit Hook as soon as he entered Storybrooke.... Hook a pirate, Greg a Lost Boy...hmmmm

I also believe Tamara to be a fairy. This is why she doesn't possess magic in the real world. Fairies only have fairy dust, which isn't readily available. I think she was on a quest to find magic, and used Bae/Peter Pan as her source because he is the only link she has to her world. All fairies possess certain personality characteristics, and even Tink was known to be spoiled, ill-tempered, very jealous, and vindictive. This would explain Tamara's dark side. This would also explain Tamara's hatred of Hook. All fairies hate pirates and are sworn enemies.

Finally, I believe Neverland and Pleasure Island to have some sort of link, or even be the same place...homes to wayward boys where fairies roam. This would explain the link between Tamara and August. Maybe Tamara didn't like August because he left Neverland/Pleasure Island. She was very resentful of him. Maybe August stopped believing in fairies (which can kill a fairy). Either way, this is an interesting link.

So, there you have it. I believe Greg/Owen wants to destroy magic and Storybrooke because they took away his father. I think they are reporting back to The Lost Boys (remember how they addressed everyone very officially). Now, I realize that Lost Boys don't remember their identity before they came to Neverland, but maybe Tamara is trying to bring Bae back to Neverland... Maybe that is her ulterior motive. He IS the leader of the Lost Boys.

Also, I've noticed a lot of theories about very minor characters in certain fairytailes. For the most part, the writers have stuck to major characters that everyone will recognize, so I'm not into some theories that I've heard for that reason.

That's all I have folks.... feel free to poke holes :)
