Emma was climbing the vine that would help her get over the castle wall. She landed with a soft thud as her boots had made contact with the ground. She placed the necklace around her neck and made it so that her shirt covered it up.
She makes her way to the tavern and sees Robin sitting at their usual table. The moment Robin laid eyes on her, he slid her a full mug of beer as she sat down.
"I see that you have survived your quest. So where's the necklace?"
Emma took it off and was about to hand it to Robin, who had his hand open. Before she put it in her hand she said, "I want to become one of your Merry Men."
"You can't just 'become' one of my Merry Men just because you stole a silly little necklace."
"Your 'silly little necklace' almost cost my head! You owe me this."
"I don't owe you anything, Emma. In fact, you owe me. If me and my Merry Men never stumbled upon you as a baby, then you would've been eaten by the wolves or the frost would've killed you. Hand it over, I have to sell this to feed the poor like I said I would."
Emma glares at him and holds onto the necklace.
"Now Emma, be reasonable here. You can either give it to me or I can call one of The Queen's guards over here. They would overlook me if they saw that you had stolen something from Princess Regina. I would be highly rewarded for my action."
The blonde let go of the necklace and it fell directly into Robin's hand.
"Tell me Emma, was that so hard?"
Emma threw the beer onto Robin and it went through to his clothes. She stormed out without looking back for even a second. Her blood was boiling over how Robin had just used her. All her life, she had wanted a family and thought that Robin and his Merry Men were it.
Now that her mind was finally clear, all she could think about was going back to Regina. She wanted to feel her warm body next to hers and feel her soft kisses. Even though it had started raining, the feelings that Emma had for Regina was keeping her warm.
When Robin leaves the tavern, he is hidden out of sight. A cloud of purple smoke appears and Robin suddenly turns into The Queen. She starts to laugh at how well she played Emma for a fool and how she had fallen into her hands. She had the proof that she needed to show Regina that Emma was just a peasant and a thief.
