7x20: Alice is revealed to be The Guardian, and the heroes gain the upper hand against Gothel. Magic is restored, and the curse is broken in the beginning of the episode. The coven fights against Zelena, Regina, Samdi/Facilier, Rumple and Alice, assisted by Robin. Henry (who’s life is saved using Samdi’s powers) Jacinda, Tiana, Rogers, Nick and etc adjust after being awakened from the curse. After the fight is prolonged and Gothel realizes she is going to lose, she betrays the coven (which begins to seperate) and tries to sacrifice Alice’s purity out of spite so she cannot be the Guardian anymore. After Gothel tempts her, Alice attacks. However, since Alice only has pure magic, Gothel is reverted into the form of a plant (as she is a wood nymph) and her plan fails. Alice, recognizing her magic as being that of the Guardian, goes to Rumple to help him move on.

7x21: Alice asks Rumple if it is time for him to pass on, but he says he wants to say goodbye to Regina, Zelena, and Henry. After doing so, he is put at rest in an emotional scene. Zelena sets up her wedding with her fiancée and Henry reconnects with Jacinda and Lucy. Tiana’s business booms, and she puts the past behind by forgiving Facilier. She begins to date Naveen. Regina considers returning to Storybrooke. However, admist this happiness, the real world has found out about magic, and now aims to imprison the fairy tale characters as they deem them dangerous. Conflict is instigated between the people of Earth and the storybook characters, that begins to escalate until a near war begins to ensue between them. The episode ends on a cliffhanger with Snow, Charming, and Emma coming to help Regina.

7x22: In the series finale, everything culminates until peace is made between the two groups. It ends with Henry and Lucy taking a trip to Storybrooke, with all of the old characters being seen again like an average day in the town. Granny is seen in front of her diner, Archie is walking Pongo, and the Charmings run the town together. Henry closes the book. Happily ever after.

I kinda like this, even though it's not gonna happen because Alice is likely revealed to be the Guardian in 7x18, Zelena gets a send-off in the same episode and probably gets married in 7x17, however who's to say she won't appear in the finale too.

I like the idea of the real world finding out about fairy tales and trying to imprison them, it's my original idea for season 7, 2 episodes aren't enough in my opinion. I also doubt the writers would want to do it because it opens a pandora box, I think. But it is a good idea.

However, I still prefer my pitch for the series finale more than your stories guys. I took a good hour to come up with it, to write something that's never been done in the series and that focuses on the most important characters of the season (Henry, Alice and Rumple), and a good excuse to re-visit old realms, old characters and past situations, without creating plotholes.
