"Aaaaugghh!" Regina yells as she slams her fists on the hard wood table, "I want Snow White found! I swear to the gods I will do it myself!" Regina snaps at the Black Knights.

"Your majesty, we were just doing as we were told," one knight says nervously," I don't know what else we were supposed to do, your majesty."

"Shut up!" Regina says using her magic to snap his neck letting the man fall to the floor, dead.

"Sweetheart, maybe we can just talk-" Henry, Regina's father, says trying to cut in.

"NO!" Regina yells," I don't care what you think father! I want Snow White killed and her heart brought to me. It's not fair!"

"Regina, when are you going to stop with this Snow White business dear? I know she hurt you, but this needs to stop. You are killing innocent people," Henry says warning her.

"No, I'm making them suffer. There is a difference. I am going to go see her now." Regina says as she uses her magic to teleport herself away. Regina had poofed herself to a humongous castle at the edge of the forbidden forest. Inside this castle lived a familiar dragon, Maleficent. Regina asks, "Mal? Are you home?"

Maleficent comes out from behind a curtain and says, "Hello little one. What do I owe the honor to have her majesty grace me with her presence?"

Regina rolls her eyes and says,"Don't say it like that Mal. I visit you plenty."

Maleficent scoffs and says."Oh really? You think you visit me often? You used to visit me every goddamn day, and now if I'm lucky enough, I see you once a month."

"That's not my fault you know I'm busy trying to deal with Snow-"

"Then maybe you should give all this Snow White nonsense up! Who cares about Daniel anymore? You have me! I know it hurts that he is gone now, but more people are dying, little one!" Maleficent snaps at Regina.

"You of all people know I cannot do that. I am going to get my revenge no matter what you or my father says. Snow White is a brat and should pay for her actions. She killed Daniel!" Regina says annoyed," I am not giving up, not like you did!"

"We both know that is not true," Maleficent says as she stares at her in shock and says, "Get out,"Regina stared frozen from Maleficent's anger," Get out!"

Regina gasps and says,"Fine!" Regina then poofs away, going back to her lonely castle. Regina sighed as she goes over to her vanity. She sits down and starts to take her hair down. She has always hated arguing with Maleficent. It would fill her with a lot of guilt seeing her that way. Did her father and Maleficent speak with each other or something? It seemed to Regina that they were saying pretty much the same things. Snow White had her first love killed, and she was not going to let that go, not even for Maleficent.

Regina sighs and says,"Mirror Mirror, show me Maleficent," Mirror shows her Maleficent in her castle crying. Regina looks down and says,"What have I done?" She poofs herself back to Maleficent's castle saying, "Mal, I'm sorry for saying that. I know I have you, but I am still hurting. I hate her, just like you hated Briar Rose."

Maleficent looks up at Regina and says, "That hurt me little one. You are like the only person I actually care about, and I don't want you going down the same dark path as me. I know you. I know that there is good in you, you used to smile and laugh with me. I-I'm scared I have lost that Regina because that is the Regina I know and love."

Regina tears up looking at Maleficent and asks,"You love me?"

Maleficent falls to the ground crying with anger saying,"Yes you idiot! Why do you think I care so much about how you end up? You are the only human I trust, the only being I trust. I know you are hurting. I get that, believe me I do. I just want you to be a safe little one."

Regina kneels down to Maleficent and says, "I love you too. I truly do, but I can't live with myself if she is alive. Her face makes me want to hurt someone, like how she hurt my Daniel. If you understand, why are you protecting me so much?"

Maleficent mods and says, "Yes, I want to protect you from the darkness I have experienced and the pain and torture of going that path. You are probably the most powerful sorceress I know, and you are only 26. It took me years to learn the magic you know. You have a real gift, but," Maleficent breathes,"You should use that magic for good and not evil, like I did. Do you understand now?"

"I think I do," Regina says,"I just want to be happy again. It has been so long since I have. Why am I even mad at Snow? It was my mother who killed Daniel, Snow was just the one to tell her about our secret relationship, but Snow is the one who broke our promise and told my secret, betraying me." Regina sighs.

"Hey, stay the night? Tonight we are going to focus on you okay? Let's forget about that brat, Snow White, and we should eat and catch up. Let me see the Regina I knew not so long ago," Maleficent says as she smiles at Regina.

Regina nods and says, "Fine, I'll stay the night. I would actually really love that Mal. I don't think forgetting about Snow White will be that easy though."

"I know, I know. Can you try little one, for me? It's just one night," Maleficent says smiling at her.

Regina nods and says,"Okay I'll try." Regina scoots close to Maleficent and hugs her tightly and says, "But only because you are my dragon."

The end.
