Chapter 1

Regina POV

Feeling the magic gather within her she let it loose towards Pan's curse, feeling the magic warring against her own. She can't lose. Not this time. For her boy, her precious boy that wanted her to be good. She will conquer this because SHE is the Queen. Feeling the magic burst from within her and impact those around her she couldn't stop it. A rush of memories flashed behind her eyes, making her relive her most horrid memories.

What she didn't know was that she wasn't the only one to see those horrid memories. The backlash caused everyone to temporarily feel what she felt and see what she did. The memories that repeatedly played themselves within her mind also were shown to them. Unknowingly showing them a truth that not even they will be able to fully comprehend.

-Inside Memory-

"What...what is happening? Where are we?" Emma screamed. Holding tightly to Henry she looked around into what seemed to be a medieval room decorated in white. "My room. Why are we in my room?" Snow grasped tightly to Charming's hand. Looking around they could see the whole group gathered around looking as confused as them. "Well Dearie it would seem that we are trapped in a memory of Regina's." Pointing with his cane, everyone looked in the direction to see a younger Regina sitting on a bed with an even younger Snow laying in her lap. Regina was slowly wiping Snow's forehead with a wet cloth. If not for the tears slowly cascading down her face, the group would have thought she didn't care at all with how blank her face was.

"Wha…How is it that we are seeing this? I…I don't remember this ever happening." Snow stuttered out as she slowly walked towards the bed with the others not far behind. "Why dearie, of course you don't remember your own near death." Rumplestiltskin sighed while taking a seat at the vanity next to the bed. "I've never seen Mom like this before. She…she never cried in front of me..." Henry murmured as he slowly leaned closer to the memory Regina.

"Please...Please someone help me…Please...oh my god Snow..." Regina whimpered stroking Snow's face. Seeing her stepmother like this Snow couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart for what she lost. "My my look what we have here. A beautiful, a dying princess, all we need is the rotting corpse of the King and we will be set." A dark voice boomed from all around the room seeming to come from everywhere at once. Jumping the group looked all around until a giggle from Rumplestiltskin made them realize that they weren't actually the ones being addressed much less able to be seen.

Jumping up to move herself in front of Snow Regina once again resembled the queen that they knew. Back straight head held high she glared at the intruder who dared to interrupt her. "Why are you here? Who sent you?" She commanded him yet they could all here the fear mixed in with the arrogance in her voice. The man approached her unknowingly walking through Grumpy on his way to the bed. He was the epitome of tall, dark and handsome with a roguish look to his face. But it was his eyes that conveyed just how dangerous a man he was. Smirking he glided towards her as if his feet daren't touch the impure ground that other humans were forced to walk upon. "Why my dear I have come to help you of course..." Smirking at the fear that shook her frame he glanced at Snow White. "She doesn't have long you know? Minutes at best Mon Cherie." Lounging at the end of the bed as if it was everyday he laid next to a dying girl with no care in world only seemed to make her even angrier. "Well well who is this?" Rumplestiltskin murmured to himself glaring lightly at the fool who thought himself able to cure a disease even he himself could not.

"What's going on?" "Who is he Rumple?" Ooh Mom giving him that 'Mom Stare' she always gives me when she's upset." Everyone started to speak at once until Rumple silenced everyone with a spell. "If you imbeciles would silence yourselves we might be able to learn what it is is happening." Turning back to Regina, who seemed to have made a deal with the mystery man, they watched her as she moved to the end of the bed as the man in turn simply touched Snow's hand. Immediately everyone can see the improvement upon the young girls' body. Cheeks flushing with happiness and tears starting to once again fall, Regina couldn't help but to fall to her knees in exhaustion. "And now Mon Cherie time for you to begin your part in our deal." Feeling the man behind her Regina couldn't help but to slightly shake. Standing she felt him put his hands on her shoulders, slowly running them down her arms. Looking towards the still unconscious Snow, Regina couldn't help but smile.

"From now on, you are mine. Your magic. Your body. Your heart. And if you will love me then you can love no other, so remove Snow White from that precious heart of yours. Am I Clear?" He told her, nodding her head Regina felt herself closing up. Just like when Daniel died, she could feel nothing. Uncorking a vial filled with what appeared to be black slime, he put it to her lips forcing her to drink the contents.

"What is he doing to my mom?!" Henry shouted beginning to run to her but Emma and Neal held him back. "Why he is turning her into the perfect weapon. What that vial contains is a substance that will make her into the perfect puppet. Totally dependent and susceptible to darkness, she has become his pawn. Or should I say broken queen?" Rumple told the group returning his attention back to Regina.

"Painful I know but its needed Mon Cherie." He said to Regina as she writhed on the bed scratching at her neck and chest, trying to breathe. Blood was choking her, running out her mouth down into her hair. Finally after several minutes she laid on her side breathing hard. Trying to reach for Snow's hand only seemed to anger him more. "From now on, Snow White is your enemy. You will hunt her as I please. And do anything to please me and only me." Climbing on top of her and pushing her onto her back, he ripped the front of her dress exposing her corset bound chest to the invisible audience. Hearing several gasps, Emma turned Henry's face into her chest and covered his ears. "Oh my god…oh my god Regina!" Snow tried to run to the memory Regina but charming held her back turning her face into his chest. She started to beat his chest when she heard more rips and screams coming from Regina. 'Why? Why didn't she tell me? Why isn't anyone coming to help', Snow thought.

Finally after what seemed an eternity the screams stopped, however everyone wished they hadn't turned back. Regina was on the bed silently crying, gazing unseeingly at the ceiling. Her dress ripped and bloody in places but what alarmed Snow was the marks on her inner thighs. Glowing sigils wrapped around each thigh in a sort of band.

Seeing the memory start to disintegrate Rumple stood. "It would seem that Regina has finally completed casting the counter-curse. Come everybody and stand together lest someone is left behind." Gathering together, Emma and Henry couldn't help but look back at a teen Regina. 'Not again Mom. I won't let anyone hurt you again' Henry thought crying silently for what he just witnessed his mother go through. Feeling the magic surround him he closed his once again hoping that his Mother was still alive.

A/N: So some people may already know that I have another story in the works but my muse has just completely thrown that to the curb and is instead pestering me with this idea . Ok yea it may partially be my fault for kinda sorta becoming a OUAT addict but hey I put off watching it until now so I feel like if I read anything else I might go through withdrawal.

O.O
