(rolls eyes at the thought of the mixed up family tree). Well... Emma got her Swan surname from her first family (confirmed by JMo and A&E). If she's the Once counterpart of the Dark Swan, AKA Odile, then that means she's supposed to have a twin sister. Named Odette. Also known as the Swan Princess.

And we know Emma was given up by the Swan family at the age of three when they had their own child. Safe to assume Emma and the Swan family might... reconnect this season. And since Emma was never restricted by Storybrooke's laws, we might see some Dark One magic in the outside world. Especially since she showed some of her own magic in "Lily" while fighting Lily. Interesting theory, but Emma probably represents both Odette (what she normally is) and Odile (what she is under the Darkness's control). I do think they should eventually show us the Swan family though, and the child they had that they gave Emma up for could play a role on the show in present day. The only way I could see Emma being Odette as well as Odile is if she turns into a black swan to fly everywhere instead of poofing like Rumple and Regina do. The one defining characteristic of Odette is that she becomes a human every day and a swan every night (like Princess Fiona and her ogress transformation).

Otherwise, I'd definitely like to meet Odette Swan and have her be Emma's "sister".
