A lot can happen in a week's time. Literally, a LOT can happen. Like suppose, Hyde getting killed cause Jekyll was. Belle and Rumple making up and figuring a way out to make things work in their relationship. Snow and Charming being put under a sleeping curse. Emma and Regina being trapped in a mirror and talking about how they didn't want to lose the other and that they wanted to raise Henry together. But there was one thing that Emma didn't like. The fact that the only way to harm or kill The Queen is through didn't like it one bit. She's not complaining but Emma sacrificed her soul for this woman, she won't let her die.

That was what was going on in Emma's mind as she and Regina were looking around in the vault to find a solution for Snow and Charming's sleeping curse. And a way to avoid Regina's death. And a way to alter Emma's future.

After rummaging through stuff and skimming through books, Emma abruptly sits down causing Regina to look at her. "What went wrong Regina? What did I do? One day, everything's fine, all of us were happy and alive. Now all of us are slowly dying. My parents are in a weird alternative sleeping curse. Your unwanted half is going around terrorizing people and constantly scheming on how to take Henry away from us. You keep thinking killing yourself is the only answer to end all this. And me? I'm gonna get stabbed to death by some unknown hooded figure. What went wrong Regina? How did I mess this up so bad? I'm supposed to be the Savior and right now... right now I'm unable to do anything or save anybody."

Regina listened to this word vomit that Emma just had and moved closer to her. She sat down right beside Emma and kept looking at her. "None of this is your fault" she says strongly and reassuringly. "This is all my fault" as Emma was about to interrupt her she says "and I know you'll argue otherwise but it all started with me and because of me. None of this is your fault. You are an amazing Savior, never doubt that. You gave your parents their happy ending and though they are in quite a troublesome situation in life right, they're happy to have you and all of us by their side and we are helping them get out of this situation. As for me, I've had a cruel past which in no way justifies what I had done but you gave me a reason to live. You gave me a reason to be a better version of myself. You gave me Henry, and for that reason among many others you will always be my Savior. And with Henry's help and your help I'm learning to love myself. Slowly but surely."

Emma looked into Regina's teary eyes. The both of them seem to have more of these heartfelt confessions of how important they are to each other. Maybe it's because Emma's dying. But right now looking into Regina's eyes Emma knew what she had just heard comes from deep within and she can see how truly grateful Regina is.

Emma wipes a tear that slides down Regina's cheek "He is a great kid isn't he?" Emma says with a smile and Regina nods. "Let's just sit here for a while" Emma says and takes Regina's hand in hers. The both of them are exhausted and Regina lays her head on Emma's shoulder while Emma leans on Regina's head.

At Zelena's place

"Look at that, aren't they just adorable" Zelena say as Hook frowns at the image of his Emma with Regina. "And here I was thinking I'm the only one who's green" Zelena chuckles

Before Hook could respond with a nasty comment, the Queen enters the room. "What is happening? Have they come up with a plan to fix things yet?" she asks

"No, we had to sit through an hour of heartfelt speeches that those lovebirds were giving each other and Mr. Pirate here was going green with envy" Zelena says "Ugh, true loves and their never ending speeches to each other"

"Mind your mouth witch, Emma is my true love" Hook raises his voice across the table

"Then why exactly are you here?" Zelena challenges him

"Stop, your childish bickering" the Queen interrupts before their argument can escalate any further. "I have found a way to keep myself alive while keeping Regina out of the picture"

"How can you do that? If you kill her, you'll die too. I killed Jekyll so I know" Hook tried to understand her plan.

"Who said anything about killing her?" as she holds out an all to familiar spindle

"A sleeping curse?" the pirate gasps.

"Yes and I need you to do this for me"
