So TheCyanBandit asked for an angst chapter. Any crying or sadness below is their fault.

Zelena smiled as she snuck up to Regina's car. This was going to be too easy. Her stupid baby sister had gotten everything, and now it was time for her to take what she wanted. Regina dead.

Of course, there was also the satisfaction of seeing the panic on her face as she sped through town, unable to stop her car. Eventually, she would crash into something. Hopefully something that would kill her.

Sure, she had gained Regina's trust. Too bad she was now going to break it. Zelena laughed. Break it. Brake it.

"Say goodbye, little sis," Zelena said.

"You are not practicing driving in that," Regina said. "That bug is not safe for driving."

"And your car is too expensive," Henry argued.

Regina rolled her eyes. "I can get a new one pretty easily. Please, just drive my car. It would make me feel better."

Henry sighed. "Okay." He got into the driver's seat, waiting impatiently for Emma to get into the passenger next to him.

"Have fun," Regina teased, closing the door for Emma. "Be safe."

"Don't worry," Emma said. "I'll try and make sure he doesn't crash into anything."

"I'm not gonna crash into anything!" Henry protested. "Geez."

Emma and Regina laughed. "Okay kid. Let's get going. I don't want you driving in the dark just yet."


Regina called Emma's phone for what had to be the 50th time in the last hour. And like every other time, she didn't pick up. Sighing, Regina walked up to their bedroom. She had promised Emma that she would never use a locator spell on her unless it was an emergency. This was an emergency.

The shirt that Regina had chosen rose into the air, leading Regina out of the house and into town. And then it kept going. And going. And going.

"Where are you?" Regina mumbled. As she came around the corner, she gasped. The edge of the dock leading to the ocean was completely destroyed, and the shirt was moving straight towards the destruction.

"No, please no," Regina said, running to the edge of the dock. The shirt landed on the water, slowly sinking to the bottom. She pulled out her phone and called David and Snow, demanding that they get to the dock as soon as possible.

Once she had hung up, Regina reached for the shirt with her magic, hoping to find out how deep the shirt was. Deeper than she had thought.

Gathering her strength, Regina grabbed the car that the shirt was now attached to. She pulled up, hoping that she would have enough strength to pull it all the way out.

"What's going on?" Snow asked, running to Regina's side.

"I don't know," Regina said through clenched teeth.

"Is that your car?" David asked.

Regina nodded. "Emma and Henry were out driving and I had them take my car." She moved the car over the dock before setting it down. All three of them ran over, gasping at the sight of an unconscious Emma and Henry slumped together.

"We need to get them to a hospital right away," Regina said, panicking.

"Regina," Snow said, grabbing her arm. "There's no point in doing that."

"Why?" Regina asked. "We can't just let them stay here, they'll freeze to death!"

David grabbed her other arm, blinking away his tears. "Regina, look at them. They're not breathing."

"That doesn't mean anything," Regina hissed, pulling her arms away from Snow and David. "They're fine. I know it. We just need to get them to the hospital."

"No, they're gone," Snow said, starting to cry. "There's nothing that any doctor would be able to do."

"No," Regina gasped out, opening the door of the car. She reached in and pulled Emma close, reaching out with her other hand to stroke Henry's head. "They're fine. They're going to be fine."


Regina stood in front of Emma and Henry's graves, tears running down her cheeks. David had done an investigation, and had found out that the brakes in Regina's car had been tampered with.

"I'm sorry for your loss," Zelena said, coming to stand next to her. "It's hard losing someone you care about."

Regina just nodded. She didn't feel like talking to anyone. Especially Zelena.

"Her brakes were cut, right?" Zelena asked.

Regina froze. No one knew that except for herself, Snow, and David. The town had just been told that Regina's car had malfunctioned. How would she know that? Unless…

"Regina, I know you don't feel like talking, but you should," Zelena said. "It might help."

Regina turned slowly to face her before using her magic to choke Zelena. "You did it. Didn't you? You meant to kill me."

Zelena smiled before nodding. "And I don't regret a thing."

"Neither will I," Regina said, squeezing tighter. Zelena's eyes widened until she stopped struggling.

Regina had promised a long time ago that the Evil Queen would never come back. But as she looked down at Zelena's body, she already knew. The Queen had returned.
