Trigger Warnings: Violence...

2 Weeks Later:

Its been weeks since the collar was removed. Shes had a couple of small incidents with her temperament since then but Regina managed to rein her in. It'd been over such little things as well, like when the mailman through the morning paper too hard shattering one of the Queens garden ornaments, it was ridiculous that something so small could get her so riled up, but It was kind of funny seeing the mans face when I nearly tore his arm off..Regina had to "poof" her inside because of her refusal to leave without the mailman's head, lets just say I was confined to the mansion for the following two days with a moody Regina blanking me at every turn..lesson learnt..

On top of baby sitting, Regina had been busy assisting with the Sheriffs investigation into the mayors attack. They managed to get the foul pathetic man Sydney to confess and spill Intel on others involvement. He's sworn statement to the facts so they have cause to arrest people now. A couple more statements and the worst of the bunch will be incriminated and finally Swan can start rounding them up, especially Whale, I cant wait to get my hands on that sick son of a bitch! No matter what the Queen says, what Swan says, I'll end him! Its not just that he did those atrocities specifically to Regina that makes me want to tear his head off, its the fact that he did them at all! No one deserves to live after doing that to someone..No one!..

Morrigan follows Regina into the diner, ever wary of hidden dangers lurking in the shadows. As soon as they enter, the diner falls silent and Morrigan shifts anxiously. Regina and Henry have been getting along very well as of late, the boy has made great progress in getting over the whole Evil Queen side of his mother. He would occasionally engage in conversation with Morrigan but whenever the curious boy would ask about her past, Regina would give a stern look and she would change the subject, I don't blame him for his curiosity..So occasionally talking about her rock and unicorn helped keep him satisfied, the boys actually growing on me..I never thought it possible when I saw him cower during my incarceration at the sheriffs station..

"Mom!" The plucky young boy jumps from his seat and hurry's over, grabbing one of Regina's hands.."We saved you a seat."

We?..Green eyes dart to the booth and sitting quietly is the mother daughter Charming duo. Morrigan sees Regina's body stiffen and she clenches a fist, sun of a bitch! Can Regina not have an afternoon alone with her son?!..Morrigan scowls at the heroic pair who, with matching green eyes, look back vexatious, damn fucking straight its going to be awkward..

Henry eagerly pulls his adopted mother towards the booth with Morrigan in tow and the mayor slides into a seat next to her son, irritated at the two woman across from her. Morrigan simply stands at her Queens shoulder, eyes forward and passive. She senses eyes on her and glances down. Mary Margret and Emma stare, the blond sympathetically smiling and the pixie haired woman frowning, which only seems to irritate Morrigan further.

Emma stares at the unmoving soldier, a small smile creeping onto pink lips, ever so vigilant aren't we, will she ever take a break..She evaluates the woman, Gone is the gauntly white face and bags, she seems to have put some weight on which is good and that nasty looking collar is gone. Regina told me she removed it after I kept bugging her in one of our investigation sessions. Her exact words were, "I've removed the collar Miss Swan now get back to work or I'll have Morrigan throw you out" and it was my damn office! There hasn't been any issues with the fiery witch either, no calls to the station about someone getting their face torn off, except of course that one call from a Mr Millan at the post office saying a woman nearly ripped his arm off at the mayors house. But Regina had assured me it was an accident and had begrudgingly taken care of it. I didn't quite believe it was an "accident" but there were no other incidents prior so..meh..I'll let that one slide..Emma's pulled from her thoughts by a short skirted waitress sliding beside her.

"Hey Ems."

"Hey Ruby, you working for Granny today?"

"Yeah she needs a little help, lunch hours are the worst."

Emma watches Ruby shift, glancing from an awkwardly stood Morrigan to the steely mayor, Ruby mentioned the encounters shes had with Morrigan back in the enchanted forest and non of them were pleasant. Does everyone in this town have a past with Morrigan and Regina?..Emma notes the mumbling citizens glaring in their direction and fidgets slightly, I hope they don't whip into a frenzy, I want my grilled cheese god damn it!..

After a wave of awkward silence, Mary Margret clears her throat.."Shall we order?"

"Yeah I'm starved, usual for me Rubes."

The former princess chuckles at her daughter appetite.."Just a coffee for me Red, I'm meeting David soon."

Morrigan visibly tenses, her jaw steeling but she flinches at the hand grabbing the bottom of her leg. Green eyes regard the limb extending from her Queen as Regina continues to stare forward placidly. She quickly calms herself, relaxing her steeled jaw and feels a subtle flow of Regina's magic flow into her limbs. breathe, just breathe..

Emma and Ruby steal apprehensive glances before an oblivious Henry quickly chimes in.."I'll have a burger and fries with a strawberry milkshake."

"Drop the milkshake and make it an orange juice."

"Aww Mom, I always have a milkshake.."

Regina raises a challenging eyebrow at Henry's pouting.

"Fine, but in exchange.." He sticks his nose in the air, raising an authoritative finger and Regina's eyebrow ascends further.."I demand a cheeseburger."

"Demand?"

His authoritative demeanor falters, his finger crooking at the end.."Please?"

A small smile tugs at red lips, Henry always has the ability to make me laugh even with his childish antics. We've gotten so close within the past week, I'm happy to say Morrigan is a big part of that. Whenever they both are in the same room he bombards Morrigan with questions of our past. Thankfully she doesn't disclose anything serious and ultimately damaging to him, but one day I'll have to tell him the truth. And on that day, he'll go back to hating me again. I don't think my battered heart can take the rejection but..its the right thing to do. That's what heroes do apparently..

"Very well, I concede to your compromise."

Henry's face lights up and Ruby chuckles, scribbling on her notepad.."Cheeseburger, fries and an orange juice.." The girls expression hardens.."What can I get you madam mayor?"

What the hell was that tone?!..Morrigan grits her teeth, the disrespectful ball of fur!..She breathes heavily through her nostrils alerting the young wolf who scowls, yeah keep goading me little pup, I'll tear you to pieces!..

Regina's voice snaps them both from their glaring battle.

"I'll have my usual salad Miss Lucas, and a water."

Ruby looks down to the pointed mayor before glancing back at a scowling Morrigan.."Coming right up!" She bites out, turning quickly and stalking into the back room.

Green narrowed eyes watch her go, fucking wolf!..

"Mom, guess what happened at school yesterday?"

Henry's uplifting beat draws everyone's attention excluding a guarded Morrigan. There's a jingle of the bell above the diner door and she glances in its direction before she stiffens. A man in his forties, Grey hair combed over his semi bald head, messy beard and wearing overalls walks in approaching the bar. He wipes his filthy black hands on his thighs and perches on one of the stools, How the hell? In all my twenty eight years living in this town I've never once seen him. I..I thought he was never brought over with the curse..Morrigan trembles slightly, drowning out Henry's bubbly conversation, How?..I thought?..The man slowly pivots in his seat, his attention finally settling in her direction. Grey eyes flash in recognition and a sly cruel smile curls onto his lips as he waves a little. Morrigan plunges back into her memories, memories of her past suffering, each session she had with the man, the many times he tortured her, tore her body apart and found pleasure in it. Her anger bubbles to the surface, jaw setting as her shoulders square and her hands ball into fists. All the hours of screaming, pleading for death, the times he laughed and spat in her face calling her a dog.

Regina frowns, feeling a sudden shake, it was subtle like someone gently kicked the back of her chair.

Emma feels a small shake and frowns, did someone kick my seat?..

He called me Weak..Dog..The Evil Queens bitch!..

Just as Ruby approaches the man, Morrigans rage explodes. Green eyes flicker red and the smug smile on Teach's face drops instantly.

"YOU!"

All heads snap towards Morrigan as Emma and Regina share worrying glances.

"YOUR DEAD!"

The man attempts to make a dash for the door but magic throws him into the air where he crashes into the back wall with a loud crunch.

Emma and Regina immediately launch to their feet as citizens hastily scurry away from the furious witch.

The former Queen takes a small step forward.."Morrigan stop!"

Fuck you!..Morrigan flicks her wrist and the two woman are forced back down to their seats roughly.

Emma struggles in the booth.."What the hell? Regina!"

"I know!"

Morrigan whips her arm in the air, launching tables and chairs in multiple directions to effectively make herself a path. The furniture smashes into the diner windows, the door, behind the bar and into a few unsuspecting screaming citizens. She stalks towards a cowering Teach, rage rolling off her in waves.

"Morrigan you don't want to do this! Look how far you've come, don't give into anger!"

Emma's plea is met with deaf ears as Morrigan lifts the terrified man with magic, slamming him to the wall and successfully pinning him there. Granny suddenly steps out from the back room, crossbow in hand and Emma's eyes bulge, not a good idea Granny!..

"Wait!"

Too late, the arrow launches from the crossbow and into Morrigans free hand. She growls bitterly, slowly addressing the elderly woman.

"DON'T FUCKING DO THAT!" She moves to throw the bolt back when Ruby steps protectively in front of Granny. Red eyes study the pair intently before a full bellied laugh erupts, the patrons in the diner recoiling at the madness.

"Your PATHETIC! WEAK!" Morrigan throws the arrow aside, settling her attention back on a choking Teach.

Regina feels her magic pull at the restraints and with a flick of her wrist, her and Emma dart to their feet with the blond quickly pulling her gun and the mayor stepping toward Morrigan.

"Morrigan stop!" Regina's voice is stern, aggressive, challenging, causing red eyes to burn into her.

"NO!"

Emma takes an unconscious step back at the ferocity whilst Regina takes a hesitant step forward, I know who the old man is, Teach was the Evil Queens lead torturer and I had sent him many times to pay Morrigan a visit. How the hell could I forget about him..She raises her chin, steeling her jaw and looking every part the Queen she used to be.

"I command you Captain to release him and return to the mansion!"

"So he can TORTURE ME! I don't think so my Queen!"

Regina's title spits from the woman's mouth with such venom she recoils a little, Shes out of control, and with no collar, Morrigan will be difficult to calm down without violence. I need to lure her outside, away from everyone, away from Henry..Brown eyes widen and dart to her son who is curled into the corner of the booth, looking frantically at the scene.

Morrigan passively turns back to Teach, dark magic rolling off her in waves.."You!..You think I wouldn't find out about you! That I wouldn't come for you after the pain you put me through?!"

"I was only doing my job."

"You were doing much more than that! You enjoyed every second of it, every second I was ripped open for your own amusement!" She closes a hand around his neck, squeezing harshly.

"P-Please..I have a...wife.."

Regina slowly approaches behind the seething woman, bating away the protesting hand of the sheriff as she goes.

"You sniveling little fuck! No one should have to suffer living with a pathetic, cowardly piece of shit like you! Your not laughing now are you! This time the Evil Queens BITCH gets to play! This time the dog bites BACK!"

"Please..I'm sorry.."

Morrigan chuckles darkly.."Do you think your wife would ever forgive you if I told her what you did to me?!" Grey glassy eyes plead with her before she slams his head back in frustration and the diner lights flicker eerily.."WELL?!"

"No.."

"No she wouldn't. Perhaps I'll pay her a little visit after I'm done with you, then she can suffer, just as I have!"

"Please..my..son.."

Morrigan pauses, her anger leveling off, son?! The disgusting bastard has a son?!..There's a hand on her shoulder and a sudden tingling spreads attempting to pull her into unconsciousness. Her firm hand clamps onto Regina's slender wrist, her other dropping Teach from the wall as she turns slowly, piercing red eyes settling on a seething Regina, her spell is taking effect, DAMN! I don't have much time!..Teach crawls from under her, scurrying over to Emma before the blond quickly pushes the stumbling man behind her protectively. Morrigan narrows her eyes at the movement, her anger rising once more.

"Hey." Red eyes refocus back on Regina.."You need to stop."

"NO! Not this time! He'll pay for what he did to me!"

"Killing him wont right the atrocities he's done to you."

"Maybe, but it will make me feel better!"

Regina shakes her head weakly.."No, it wont."

"Why are you protecting him?! I know you don't really give a shit if I rip him in two!"

"I'm not doing it for him, or for them.." A passive hand gestures to the cowering citizens.."I'm doing it for you. Your scaring people and fear is not a good way to encourage acceptance, believe me I know."

Red eyes dart around the diner to each petrified face before eventually reaching Henry, He's..scared. I won't hurt him, I wouldn't hurt any child..

Regina takes note of the sudden shift, Morrigans grip slackening around her wrist and shoulders relaxing somewhat, that's it..

"Your not a villain anymore Morrigan, don't let them turn you back into one. What he did to you is as much my fault as it is his.." Challenging Red eyes refocus and the grip on her wrist tightens again.."A very smart boy once said, as long as you know what you did was wrong and your sorry, you should have a chance at forgiveness.."

In the corner, Henry shuffles forward to sit at the edge of the booth, a smile slowly creeping onto his lips.

"I'm not deserving of your forgiveness, but please for your sake, for the sake of my son, don't let him see the Dark Knight. Please don't let him witness that.." The grip on her wrist loosens again.."I'm asking you as an ally, as a..a friend, don't give into anger, don't be pulled back under by the darkness as I was."

Morrigans eyes flicker from red to green.."I'm not...Friends?"

Regina nods, smiling weakly and her wrist is suddenly dropped when Morrigan scurry's backwards shaking her head. Shimmering red eyes recede and she reaches up, clamping a hand to her aching skull and gritting her teeth in pain, My head..what did I do? Everything's a little hazy..Her breathing intensifies as she stumbles further backwards, everyone's looking at me, Swans pointing a gun at me!..

Regina watches erratic green eyes dart from place to place, Please not another panic attack..She steps forward, holding a gentle hand towards the distressed woman but Morrigan darts back against the wall, red sparks flaring and dancing around her body.

Morrigans freaking out! She looks like she's going to explode!..Emma holsters her gun, holding her hands up in peace and approaches slowly.

"Morrigan its okay.." Regina tries to console, taking a hesitant step forward.

"No ones mad." Emma adds.

"Speak for yourself." The two women shoot daggers at a scowling Granny before Regina's reaching out another gentle hand.

"I need you to take my hand so we can go home okay?"

Green tortured eyes glance between the advancing women and Morrigan pushes herself further into the wall behind her. Red electricity sparks from her body causing the diner lights to flicker abnormally. Henry tries to approach but is immediately stopped by a cautious Mary Margret. Green eyes refocus on the boy protectively wrapped in the woman's arms, I want that, I want to feel safe but that'll never happen, not now, not ever..Tears pool as Morrigan slides her eyes closed, I'll never have a family, someone who loves me...I cant be here anymore..I need to leave..She raises her arms, ready to expel magic and Regina's eyes bulge.

"NO!"

A swirl of burgundy smoke blankets the back of the diner and a second later Morrigans gone. The diner erupts with chatter as people push themselves from their various hiding places.

"Damn it!" Regina spins, dashing over to Henry and checking him over as a frantic Emma joins her.

"Regina where'd she go?"

"I have no idea."

"Well we cant just let her run around town.."

"I'm well aware Miss Swan!"

"You'll find her wont you mom? She needs our help."

The amount of goodness in his heart astounds me. How can someone be so caring after what they just witnessed..Regina smiles at her sons concern.."I'll find her Henry I promise."

Emma runs an irritated hand through her blond curls.."We need to split up, find her quickly before something else happens."

"You do what you normally do sheriff."

"And you?"

"I'm heading back to the mansion."

"What? Your not even going to look?!"

"Don't be so stupid of course I am. Morrigan has spent more time at the mansion than any other after the curse broke. Its a wise place to start my search."

Emma nods firmly, I just hope to hell we find the crazy witch before someone else pisses her off..

"Okay, If you find her before I do.."

"I'll inform you, I know protocol sheriff." With a roll of her eyes, Regina looks back down at her son.."Henry, I need you to go with Miss Blanchard okay."

"But what about Morrigan? I wanna help."

"Its too dangerous."

"She wont hurt me.."

"Henry please, Morrigans not..well, and that makes her unpredictable and dangerous."

"Okay."

Regina kisses his forehead, pulling her son in for a hug which he happily returns.

"I love you Henry."

"I Love you too."

She pulls away, taking a few steps back and prepares herself.

"Regina, you want a ride to.." Emma's cut off by a swirl of purple smoke before shes shaking her head the mayors abrupt exit, I guess I have a few calls to make. Looks like I'm not getting that grilled cheese after all..

Burgundy smoke fades into the wind and Morrigans body hits the floor with a heavy thump. Slim fingers curl into dirty leaves, red electricity fading back into her hands, Am I back in the enchanted forest? The last thought I had was my old camp, the day the Evil Queen..Green eyes squeeze shut, God my head..Darkness pulls her from her surroundings, Maybe its a sleeping curse? Maybe I can just fall asleep and never wake up..A tear rolls down Morrigans temple as finally, she slips into unconsciousness under tall trees of her haunting memories...

Regina paces back and forward, her heels clicking on the station floor, Where the hell can that stubborn girl be?! We've been searching all day!..Shes been back to the mansion, down to the stables and even, to her displeasure, the asylum below the hospitals east wing and nothing. She tried using a locater spell but the damn thing just kept hovering over her, I suspect it has something to do with mine and Morrigans magic being spliced when the collar was applied. The sheriff issued a search warrant enlisting the help of the idiots and those disgusting dwarfs of hers..Emma tried to explain the situation to the search party, stating it was a simple scout and report operation but the pretentious heroes had simply thought of it as a witch hunt, Its infuriating but surprisingly Snow had been sympathetic to Morrigans cause, calming the small rabble and eventually sending them on their way before they could plot the witch's demise with fire and pitchforks..

"Yeah..Okay great thanks." Emma quickly slides her cell phone back into her jean pocket and grabs her car keys from the desk.

"Well?!"

"Leroy said he spotted a woman wandering into the park. Its dark so he's not positive its her but.."

"Lets go." Regina briskly makes her way towards the exit.

"Mary Margret and David will meet us at the west gate."

"No!" Regina whirls on the unsuspecting sheriff.."I will not have those fools messing with things they don't understand! She's in a fragile state as it is and seeing your moronic parents may just make her worse!"

Emma sighs, she really doesn't like my parents. What the hell happened between them? Its like I'm constantly playing peacemaker and its exhausting..

"Fine, I'll tell them not to come but don't yell at me if they turn up anyway." Emma walks around the seething mayor and out of the station before the woman can roast her some more..

My bodies numb..I'm kinda glad..Not being able to feel anything is comforting in a way..Morrigan stumbles from the bushes, reaching for the metal bench in front of her and breathing heavily, how long have I been walking? I woke up when it was light..The moon is high in the sky and beams a blue light down on the surrounding space. Green eyes stare at the large rotting tree ahead and passed that, a small lake reflects the blue moon, It looks so peaceful..so calm..She pulls herself towards the edge of the lake.

Green eyes stare at the water, encompassed by its beauty, its so tranquil, like I can just take a step and walk across to the other side..Her head tilts up to gaze at the former glory of the dying tree. She studies various carvings and burns on its trunk, several scorch marks and broken branches keeping her captivated, I started life so healthy, so vulnerable, so open to growth and then someone burns my home to the ground, cuts my family from my life, carves their claim in my skin..How sad is it when I can relate to a bloody tree..

Green eyes coast to the blackened water, a tingling sensation on her arm draws her attention as sudden magic crackles at her fingertips, Magic! Fucking magic ruined everything! If I never had magic I wouldn't have lost Brendon..Her eyes water, If I never had magic I'd never have been captured by the Evil Queen, wouldn't have killed all of those people, lost..Elinor..Tears fall freely, I never would have lost my Daughter..The only light in my life, the only one that believed in me is gone..Regina says she cares, says she'll help with my darkness but I cant see how its possible, the woman's the main reason I turned dark in the first place. There's too much history, too much pain between us but..there is something else..something more..some feelings, some affection towards the woman that's completely misleading..Everything's too complicated!..

Her anger rises, everything's just fucked up and I don't know how to fix it! No one will tell me the answer, instead I'm being treated like a rabid fucking dog!..Her teeth grind together as magic dances at her fingertips, Stuck by the Queens side again because the woman's the only one who can handle me! I have no freedom! Not even with that fucking collar off! Its like trading one prison for another!..She breathes frantically, raising her hands and glaring at the red electricity licking at her palms, My magic, this..curse has everyone scared, running from me! Its destroyed my life! IT FUCKING DESTROYED EVERYTHING!..Morrigan releases an earth shattering scream, the red electricity cascading from her body and scattering throughout the lake...

The yellow VW bug pulls up outside the parks west entrance to greet an ancey looking Mary Margret and David. Regina steps out of the yellow monstrosity, sighing irritably, they always have to stick their nose in everyone's business! Sanctimonious jack offs..

"I told you not to come!"

David smiles weakly at his angry daughter.."Yeah well, we couldn't just let you come alone without backup."

"Don't play that backup bullshit card with me David."

Davids smile slips, Mary Margret frowning at her daughters clipped tone.."Emma!"

Regina cant help a ghost of a smile as Emma continues her rant.,"Well I told you not to come but you came anyway! I have Regina for back up and I seriously doubt if Morrigan saw either of you right now she'd return with us willingly. She hates your guts remember?"

"Yeah well the feelings mutual." David sneers.

Regina scowls, stepping into David's personal space aggrieved.."And why do you think she hates your guts Charming?! Why she insists I let her rip your head from your shoulders?!"

He narrows his eyes.."Because she's a mindless slave to the Evil Queen? Because she's evil and has a sick twisted mind just like you?"

Regina leans in closer, teeth bared and nose almost touching his, forget Morrigans revenge! I'll rip the shepherds head off myself!..A buzzing suddenly reaches her ears, static prickling at her skin before a scream rattles through the tree's. A small flicker of red light illuminates the darkness passed the forest and Regina edges towards it, Oh no..

"What the hell was that?!"

"I'll give you one guess." The former Queen sprints in the direction of the flickering light, Emma pulling her gun quickly.

"Shit!"

Without a second thought, the blond sprints into the park with David and Mary Margret close behind..

Tears pour from bloodshot eyes, another scream resounding over the deserted lake. Morrigan whips her hands to the side, sparks setting fire to the dead and battered tree. She releases continuous bolts, striking and shattering the vulnerable wood, sending fiery branches into the bubbling lake.

In the background Regina, Emma and her parents step forward, wide eyes fixated on the manic scene.

Lightening continues to rip at the battered tree, taring a sizable chunk from its body before the piece tumbles forward and Morrigan quickly suspends it above her with magic. Green eyes glare at the fantasized hallucination of the Evil Queen within the flickering flames and with a screech, she throws the blazing wood into the lake. The deadwood hits the water with a sizable splash and a sizzle, black liquid sloshes to shore drowning her feet. She snarls, tears cascading down red cheeks and eyes watching as the blackened wood slowly sinks.

"ITS YOUR FAULT! ITS YOUR FUCKING FAULT! YOU WANT MY MAGIC? YOU WANT IT? THEN FUCKING TAKE IT!"

She releases a burst of magic that plunges into the lake, red and purple swirling under the raging water to create a small vortex. Morrigan pushes harder, her body skipping into overdrive as a beam of red light erupts from her palms. She screams in agony and frustration, the red intense light shimmering in the tears dripping from her chin.

Regina can feel natures raw power while mesmerized brown eyes watch safely from a distance, she said its someones fault, whose? Mine? Davids? And whose she giving her magic to?..She frowns concerned, She's expelling a dangerous amount of dark magic..

Emma can feel Mary Margret's hand grabbing the back of her leather jacket tightly. She focuses on the swirling vortex in the center of the lake and shifts, that looks unstable..She softly grabs Regina's arm and dark brown eyes dart to her. She nods in the direction of the vortex and reluctantly the mayor nods, stepping forward. Emma's parents try to follow but she quickly holds her arm out, pinning them a with stern glare, don't you dare!..The couple exchange a quick glance before Mary Margret nods weakly and the Charming clan prepare to watch from the sidelines, I hope you know what your doing Regina..

Darkness clouds Morrigans vision, pain resonating throughout her body, I cant keep this up for much longer..The lake bubbles, steam rising from its surface, I have to get rid of it! Its the only chance I have at happiness!..The magic fades from her hands and the vortex quells before Morrigan's falling harshly to her knees, staring into the moon lit sky, Everything hurts..The crackling tree continues to blaze by her side, almost singeing the hairs from her skin as she lets out a long drawn out breath before a wave of loud painful sobs tare from her throat. She hooks her arms around her head tightly, curling in on her knees. Shes so engrossed in her own misery she doesn't register someone kneeling by her side. Gently a pair of arms pull her to the side but she strikes out, slapping the arms from her body but the limbs are unrelenting. Morrigan screams through her sobs, yelling for them to leave her alone but they manage to snake around her waist and arms, pulling her backwards into the embrace of a warm body.

"Shhhh..Ive got you Morrigan..Ive got you."

Loud sobs echo over the cracking fire before Morrigan eventually surrenders, lying against the body of the woman who destroyed her life.

The Charming's hesitantly approach, weary to disrupt the painful tranquility that envelops the couple. Emma shifts awkwardly, Morrigan like an open wound and they're just staring, Its almost as if we're intruding on a private affair. Regina will be okay on her own, she'll get her back safely..Emma signals her parents to leave and heads back towards the tree line. Mary Margret grabs Davids hesitant hand, pulling him away from the scene to follow their daughter into the woods and away from a very unnerving day...
