Ragsweas I'm so glad you are still hanging around! And yes that is a great question! Are they her kids, or her other half?

There is still so much left to this story.

Like who is their father? And how were they able to time travels... More importantly... How the crap did Regina get pregnant?! There is ssssoooooooo much more to this story, it's still only the beginning.

Hope you and the other readers enjoy.

Regina had thought long and hard on the subject. It was more so the only thought on her mind.

Coal and Edith were her kids... Were they really? Her other half rang in her head as she worked her way around the kitchen. They came from the Enchanted Forest... So there was a very high and strong possibility that they were from the evil queen and not her.

But still, things didn't add up. She was not able to have children, which also meant that her second half wouldn't be able to either.

Regina took in a deep breath as she paused in her work. Making dinner was becoming more of a hassle than she thought. She looked around the kitchen as she had gathered most of the things that she would need, but with recent events...

She looked to the stairs, it had been a few hours and neither Coal or Edith had left Edith's room since she got home. She felt bad in a way. Her stomach twisted into a knot and she was starting to feel sick to her stomach.

She realized what she was going to do. She quickly grabbed everything and placed it all back where she had found the items. Once the kitchen was clean enough she brushed her hands through her hair, making sure she was presentable. Which didn't really do much for her as she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

She waited for the other person to answer and smiled hearing their voice. "No, everything is fine." She stated calmly. "But I have a favor to ask." Regina looked back to the stairs as the other person on the phone waited for her next words.

Regina readied herself for the events before her. She was dressed in a nice, slim short dress that hugged her figure to it's better points. Her hair and makeup were all done up as she took her purse and headed for the door after hearing the doorbell go off.

She opened the door to find four faces she cared about so much. "Thanks for coming." She welcomed them warmly.

Emma, Killian, David and Mary Margret all walked into Regina's home. Emma and Mary Margret looked just as dolled up as Regina did, while Killian and David were dressed for a night spent at home.

"I was shocked that you wanted to have a girls night." Mary Margret smiled as she looked about. She and the others were indeed looking around in hopes to find Coal and Edith. But they were no where to be seen.

"They are upstairs." Regina reassured them. She walked to the steps and stood at the bottom looking up. "Coal? Edith?" She paused, "Can you come down here for a minute?" She added. She was pleased to hear Coal and Edith emerge from Edith's room shortly after her calling.

Both made their way halfway down the steps when they noticed all the extra people.

"Something wrong?" Coal asked as he eyes the group.

Regina smirked at him. "No." She stated briefly. "I'm heading out with Emma and Mary Margret for a few hours, which means the two of you get to hang out with Prince Charming and a one handed pirate." She motioned to Killian and David. She looked back to them with a small smile. "And pizza." Her smile grew a bit bigger at that point. What kids wouldn't like the cheesy circle of goodness?

Edith's face light up as she heard the word pizza. But then again, say anything involving food and Edith was excited. Coal on the other hand narrowed his eyes at Regina. "What the hell is pizza?" he asked.

Regina had to hold back a laugh as she shifted her eyes away from them. She looked back and smirked. "Trust me you'll like pizza." She said with confidence.

Regina turned and made her way to the door. "I left the board games on the table." Regina turned to Killian and David. "Pizza has been ordered with money for it in the kitchen..." Regina started to list off a few things for them. "You both have my number..." She didn't even realize what she was saying until she looked looked up from her purse and noticed the strange looks the others were giving her.

She brushed her hair away from her face and cleared her throat a bit. "I'll just leave you both... Yeah.." She turned to Emma and Mary Margret. "Shall we?" she asked. Emma and Mary Margret had no idea why Regina asked for this kind of outing. She was very vague as to why or what she wanted to talk about. But something was a bit off about her in such a short period of time.

"Have fun." Edith called to Regina as Regina went to leave the house. Regina looked over her shoulder at both Coal and Edith on the steps. She smiled to them and gave a small wave before leaving and shutting the door behind her.

Once the girls were gone David and Killian looked to one another before looking to Coal and Edith. "How about a board game?" David asked as he clasped his hands together. Edith jumped in her step as she rushed down the stairs. "Like with wooden boards?" Edith asked as she hurried to the first floor.

David slimmed his eyes, "Not quite." He motioned to the dinning room.

Killian watched David and Edith head to the dinning room and then looked back to Coal on the steps. "You coming?" he asked.

Coal just gave the pirate a dead stare before slowly descending the stairs. He stopped in front of Killian and slowly blinked.

Killian wasn't sure how respond to this. He was just a kid, but his death stares scared him a little... Just a little. He recalled what Emma had told him about this kid's magic and had never heard anything like it. He had yet to see him use his magic, and frankly he really didn't want to.

He motioned to the table where David and Edith were setting up the game. "So there's no fighting?" Edith asked as she looked over one of the game pieces. David laughed, "Nope, no fighting... Well... Arguing." He looked over to Killian and Coal finally joining them at the table. "We played this game with your brother earlier today." David gave Coal a stern look.

"He cheated." Killian stated rather quickly as he walked past Coal and found a seat at the table.

Edith laughed at this. "Of course he did." She rolled her eyes. "You should see him in a fight." She smiled to Coal.

"I did, a few days ago." David reminded her.

Edith took her seat and Coal slowly but surely took the seat next to her. "That was no fight." Edith shook her head.

David glanced to Killian for a minute. "What is he like in a fight then?" David asked.

"Deadly." Coal narrowed his eyes and locked them with David. The stone cold serious look on his face turned int a high warning one.

David and Killian both had no idea how to respond to this.

"So how do we play this game?" Edith asked as she hopped in her seat.

Thank the stars for that.

David smiled as he pulled out the rule book and started to go over the rules with Coal and Edith. Coal already knew how to play the game... And knew how to cheat, so this was more so for Edith. Killian kept his eyes on Coal as David went over how to play with Edith.

If it wasn't for Edith... This wouldn't be a pleasant evening.

Regina took a sip of her drink as she tried to ignore the blank stares coming from Emma and Mary Margret.

"Your kids?" Emma asked.

"Oh my gosh, Regina that's amazing." Mary Margret sounded more than happy.

She had just finished telling them about what she over heard and what she had placed together. "Well... They might not be my kids." She stated. "They could be the evil queen's kids for all we know." She told them.

Emma scrunched her face as she thought about Edith and Coal. She shook her head, "What can we do to find out?" she asked.

Regina was at a lose on that question. She couldn't do a blood magic spell... Mostly because her other half... Was, well... Her. And who knows who is really their father. If it was the evil queen it could be Robin... But then there was always the chance that it could be someone else.

"Well I think it's really cool." Mary Margret sipped on her drink. She smiled to Regina. "You actually have kids in the future." she looked to Emma and then back to Regina. "It's what you always wanted." She smiled.

Regina could agree with all her heart on that topic. She always did want a happy ending for herself... She had one... But deep down it didn't feel the same as having a child you gave birth to with your one true love. It pained her in the pit of her black heart.

"I can see the resemblance." Emma spoke up.

Regina and Mary Margret turned to Emma.

"Well mostly in Coal." She nodded. "He reminds me of you when we first meet... Without the threats..." Emma stopped and shook her heard as she recalled all the stares and warning looks Coal gave to those around him. "Well... Sometimes." She added before picking up her beer and taking a large gulp.

Regina let out a sigh not sure where this would go. She was a bit taken back from Mary Margret's reaction. The woman found the silver lining in every clouded curse she threw at her. And Emma. She had a feeling Emma was just glad that Coal and Edith weren't her kids it seemed.

"Do they know that you know?" Emma asked.

Regina shook her head.

Mary Margret frowned a little at this. She personally felt for Regina. After all they had been through and after everything that had happened in the past. She felt both good and bad about the subject. But it was also a very confusing topic. If they weren't hers and they were the evil queens... She secretly crossed her fingers that they were Regina's kids.

"So what next?" Mary Margret spoke up.

Regina was lost for ideas, "If I had a plan i would have told you by now." Regina found herself getting a bit snappy on the subject and didn't mean to snap at Mary Margret. "I'm sorry I snapped." Regina was quick to apologize.

"Don't be." Mary Margret reached out and placed a hand onto Regina's. "This must be frustrating." She added.

She could only imagine. Regina thought.

"Smack the truth out of them." Emma stated flatly. "Well Coal... Really. That kid has one serious attitude." Emma added.

Regina grumbled at the thought. "I'm not going to smack them."

Mary Margret nodded, "Nothing good would come of that." She placed in her two cents.

Emma leaned into the table and looked at Regina. "Test them." She told her.

"How so?" Regina asked.

Emma shrugged, "There are many things I wanted to share with Henry after he was born, things That I would want to pass onto him. Even if the evil queen is half you, I'm sure there are differences." She hoped this might be a good answer for this situation.

"Huh?" Regina thought about it. There were things that she shared with Henry that the evil side of her didn't. It was a start... Possibly a good start. But what would she bring to the table if she did have her own kids...

Regina recalled when her first curse broke and she was able to finally show Henry her magic. She made him this giant cupcake and told him that she would be able to show him how to use magic. She was also strict with rules and wanted him to grow up just right. Between her and Emma raising Henry.. She was indeed happy with how Henry turned out. A young man almost ready to finish school... He respected women and was open with his feelings. Regina smiled at how Henry turned out.

But her smile ran away when she thought about Coal. Edith seemed like a warm hearted person, while Coal had the complete opposite personality. Cold, distant... they even mentioned that their parents weren't around in their future. Where was she then? Was she dead?

Regina down her drink and waved the glass in the air. "Another round." She stated quickly. This was a lot to take in and she still had yet to gather all the information.

"You'll figure it out." Mary Margret showed confidence in her voice. She had seen Regina come over a lot of obstacles and over came them once she placed her mind to it. This time would be no different.
