A/N: As a part of Day 7 of oqfixitweek on tumblr

I would like to thank the creators of this challenge. I had so much fun doing this, I've wanted to write about my main Once Upon a Time ship for a long time now but I never did. This gave me the chance to do that. Stay Tuned because it is a little lemony.

Dark!OQ day (Sunday 29th October)

Prompts Used: DarkOQ fuck Regina and Dark!OQ merges with real OQ

She finally figured it out, how she could get her Robin back. Everything made so much sense now. Why she had to separate herself from the Evil Queen, the other Regina. Why the other Robin hadn't aged in that other Enchanted Forest? What it all meant finally had revealed itself to her.

After Henry left in the portal she was beside herself. She was now truly alone. Emma had Hook and soon they would be starting another family. Snow and David had a fresh start with Neal. Even Zelena had Peanut but Regina was just utterly alone.

She didn't want to hurt Henry by falling into the darkest part of herself so she went to the Sorcerer's mansion. If it could reveal a new path for Henry then maybe it held a new path for her as well.

It was there that she discovered all of the storybooks that Henry had spoken of. She spent days reading about the other versions of herself and how they never got a chance to become good like she did. She also read about the different versions of her true love, Robin Hood.

It was painful but she was happy that so many versions of him ended up in a happy place except for one. It was because of this that she decided to check up on her other half. Originally, she told herself that she would not bother them but she knew a peek wouldn't hurt.

They've searched the mansion before so she knew that there was a full length mirror on the fourth floor in a bedroom down the hall. Standing in front of the mirror, waved her hand over the glass wishing to see her other half.

"Oh, Robin" moaning reached Regina ears as she caught Queenie in a moment of passion with the other Robin.

"Oh, shit," she screamed as she waved her hand over the mirror once again to end the intrusion.

"I should not have done that" as she said it a hidden draw showed itself underneath the shelf of a golden snow globe. "I should leave them at peace."

Turning to where the snow globe is, Regina notices the hidden draw which intrigued her so she placed her hand inside it. When she and the others had first discovered the existence of the mansion she'd done a spell to reveal all of the hidden places within it. But, obviously it didn't want to reveal all of its secrets.

Inside of the draw was a scroll that was sealed with a gold ribbon. On the seam of scroll it says, Only revealed to those who have shown that true love can survive the loss of each other.

Sitting on the side of the bed, which was the only thing inside of the room along with the full length mirror and book shelf built into the wall, Regina readied herself to read what was in the scroll.

The only other item in the room was the golden snow globe, which was the only item on the bookshelf. It did not hold a single book so the hidden drawer within the bottom shelf really was a marvel. She slowly pulled the end of the bow tied ribbon loosing the knot it fell from the parchment. Unrolling it the words slowly started to reveal themselves, 'You have earn the right to happiness, Regina'

Confused but not frighten she continued to read the letter that was apparently written for her. 'Once you find yourself and reconnect; true love will be reunited with you.' Regina understood somewhat but, 'follow the falling snow.'

"Sorry, but there is no way I am bringing Snow or David into any of this" Regina was a lot of things but her sarcasm was always on point. "I do not need the hope squad."

Looking up from the scroll she glances at the snow globe, and sees the snow falling in reverse inside of it. Standing up she continues to stare at the globe soon the floor beneath her feet starts to shake.

"Huh, what is going on" before Regina could turn to try and make her way out of the room she falls forward and her hand lands on the globe. Her eyes slowly closed as she loses consciousness.
