A/N: :( More upset Robyn. Don't hate me please. :) This is a long chapter no smut. Smut fluff and more smut for the next few chapters after this. Hope you guys like it!

...

The Dark One was on it's way and Robyn had been distracted instead of preparing. In theory she knew what to do, she had just never done it before. As soon as she appeared in the counsel room, she sent everyone to the other side and barred them off. Laying her own golden shield over them first she proceeded to lay more shields. First a fire shield then an electrical shield and finally the pure love shield.

Robyn could really feel it now. It had been a while since she'd used so much magic, but it felt good to be in her element again. She promised to keep both of her loves safe no matter what and that's exactly what she was going to do. The Grand Witch would not fail her family twice.

She felt the entity coming closer and mentally prepared herself to do whatever she had to do.

The Dark Power came bursting and shrieked loudly. It then swirled and barreled towards Regina, stunning itself on the shields.

"Dark One stand down! I have a command for you."

The entity shrieked back and then charged the shields towards Emma this time.

Robyn raised her staff and concentrated all the light power she could manifest into the weapon. The Grand Witch pointed it at the Entity and a bright light shot forth causing it to cry out and fall towards the ground.

"Now you will do as I command or so help me I will lock you up in the forbidden caves and you will never have a host again!"

The entity remained quiet and hovered low and still towards the ground.

"Regina is off limits, Emma, Henry, Neal, Snow and David are off limits. Bring me three mortals by the next full moon and I will allow you to choose the best of the three. Now be gone and do not return to this Castle, for when you do, it will be your last. Now go and obey me!"

For the first time in some years Robyn can say that she was worn out. True love at its rawest was one of the most powerful forces in the world. She won this time, it worked. But as she stood there she remembered what happened earlier and realized that right now maybe they wouldn't have their happy ending so soon. Robyn lifter her hand and pulled her magic back from the two women she gave her heart too.

Right now they all needed some space. She wasn't breaking up with them, but she realized that even with her then didn't have a choice. Their old loves were there and if they chose a new love in her than so be it. If they chose the guys then so be it. The three women were destined to be together. The past hour had just cemented that, the only thing that they didn't know was when and in what lifetime. Maybe this one, maybe not.

"I will see you all tomorrow." Robyn changed back into her regular clothes and disappeared.

Regina waved her hands and transported Robin Hood back to the woods without a second thought and looked to Emma. "I need to speak with you, now. Ditch the Pirate."

Now the Queen really knew that something had went very wrong. Emma had that same look on her face now as she did when she brought Marian back from the past. She crossed her arms and nodded her head towards the door.

"Henry, finish lunch with your grandparents and we will speak to you afterwards if you have any questions, okay?" Henry nodded and went back to his food.

Regina left the room and Emma quickly followed with only a kiss on the forehead to her son.

Through clenched teeth Regina asked, "Would you mind telling me what's going on here, Miss Swan?"

"Regina look Robyn just — I didn't —we never talked!" Emma shouted as she hunched her shoulders. "I still care about Killian, but like a close friend. I didn't fight for her and I went to Killian to help him up after she had him hanging in the sky. I understand there is bad blood, but its not really a fair fight. So I was helping him up off the ground, we momentarily locked eyes and he said I was beautiful. Next thing I know Robyn is gone."

The Queen shook her head as they walked to their bedroom.

"Why is she mad you?" Emma asked.

"One of Robin's merry men died from an infection and he asked for a hug of comfort. I obliged him and of course that's when Robyn saw us." Regina ran her hands through her hair. "She never let me explain. She looked so hurt and so angry. I tried to talk to her, but she just left. Before she left she said, 'Emma has hook. You can have Hood.' Now I know what she meant."

"We need to talk to her 'Gina. I got to fix this. I can't have her hating me for the rest of eternity."

"I know. We can try to locate her with my map in my bedroom. It locates powerful magical beings in the Realms so she should stand out."

A few miles from the Castle the Grand Witch continued walking, lost in her thoughts. She just wanted to cry. Couldn't things ever be easy for her? Soon she ended up at a good sized secluded lake and cascading waterfall. She blocked the two women's magic from finding her and sat on a log facing the wet oasis.

Even though Robyn hadn't really needed sleep it would have been nice to lay down in a warm bed. She was tempted to spy in on her two girlfriends, but feared the worst. She couldn't take seeing them in one of those guys arms. Maybe she should have listened to them, but it's not like they had fought for her.

True they were looking for her, but for the moment they all needed to think. Things were tense between Robyn and Emma and the last thing she wanted to do was make matters worse. Some things said, can't be unsaid and it's better if they all talk when things have died down.

Some what feeling restless, Robyn looked at the surrounding area. The place was beautiful. Choosing to be optimistic, Robyn hoped the two women would be with her.

The area looked big enough and she had needed somewhere to put her new home. This spot was perfect. Close, but far enough away from the White's Castle so Emma and Henry can see them whenever they wanted to.

Activating the magic inside of her she began to create—hopefully their—new home. About six hours later, Robyn finally finished the medium sized Castle. Everything was modern on the inside, but still classic for the times. She put the house in an invisible cloaking spell and went inside. It was hours past dinner time, but the last thing she wanted to do was eat and she still hadn't been able to sleep.

The hurt, the sadness, the jealously all paled in comparison to how much she missed them. She needed to see them, even if they were in the arms of another.

Robyn shook her headed and determined first to see Henry. She appeared in a corner of his room and did a magical sweep. Nothing was amiss so she kissed his forehead and put a protective shield around his room.

Appearing near the balcony of their room, Robyn saw Regina and Emma sleeping. Regina was frowning in her sleep and Emma had tracks of tears down her face. Seeing that hurt her to the core. The last thing she wanted was for either of them to ever feel hurt by her. But what could she do?

The Grand Witch wanted to ease their pain so she invaded their dreams and erased their nightmares. Putting them both on a beach in their dreams, their faces visibly began to relax.

Maybe she overreacted, maybe —no, no, maybe nothing. Robyn hadn't done anything wrong, it was them who had hurt her. If they came looking for her then they could talk. If they chose to let her go, then things would stay as they have become.

With the spell she casted on their magic, she knew it would take effort to look for her, to search her out. It was a bit juvenile, but if they wanted her then they would show it just like she had.

When Emma started to stir, Robyn closed her eyes tightly fighting the tears that threatened to come down.

Tomorrow will be a new day, she would see Henry and then pick up on her duties to the Realms.

Emma, being a light sleeper, heard faint footsteps near her bed and she started to wake up. As her eyes fluttered open all she could see was the faint gold residue fading away into the air.

"Damn," Emma sighed. She realized Robyn had been there and she missed her. They hadn't been able to locate her yesterday with the spell, but they still had hope.

As soon as the sun rose, Emma made a mental note to start looking for Robyn. After all she used to be a bounty hunter, AND being a Charming meant that she was naturally good at finding people.

Tomorrow, tomorrow was the day.

Well, tomorrow ended up being a week later. When she woke up the morning after Robyn left she met with her mother and was all but ordered to organize and get training and supplies for the new soldiers.

That day Emma saw Robyn talking with Henry in front of the Castle. She was helping up with the soldiers, but her eyes near left Robyn's frame. Robyn had been asked by Snow to help rebuild the Castle and currently thats what she was doing. Emma called new guys to the large tent for lunch and hoped that she would be able to catch Robyn so they could talk. Unfortunately, when she looked back to the place Robyn had been, she was now longer in sight.

Regina had been tied up in diplomatic relations while helping Kathryn reestablish her Fathers Kingdom. The Queen was exhausted. Between helping Emma with the regime, helping Kathryn run a Kingdom, and restoring her former Kingdom, the only other things she had time for was food and sleep. Just like Emma, only once in the last week had she seen Robyn.

In the counsel room, Robyn was talking quietly to Snow about something. As soon as she entered, she met eyes with Robyn. It broke Regina's heart because just like they were, Robyn was sad and miserable. The former Evil Queen thought this might have been their chance to talk, but before a word was uttered between them, Robyn excused herself and disappeared.

The 7th day came and both Regina and Emma had a day off. They started early in the morning and thought of all ways to come in contact with Robyn and find her. They went through various options and nothing magical worked so Regina was at a loss.

Trying it Emma's way they began with the only people she'd ever contacted. What they found when they saw Rumple wasn't helpful. They asked Henry, and even though Henry saw Robyn everyday he hadn't known where she went when she left or how to contact her.

Lastly, they headed back to their room and attempted to try one last person, Glenda.

Regina waved a hand in front of the mirror and demanded. "Mirror, show me Glenda the Good Witch."

If this didn't work the pair didn't know what to do. But they weren't complete until Robyn was back with them.

"Glenda, it's Regina. How are you dear?" Regina tone was calm and even and deadly.

"Regina, Emma, I hope you are both well." Glenda said with a smile.

"Well, I'll be honest Glenda we aren't too well lately. We, uh, has Robyn contacted you?" Emma didn't want to give her too much information. The last thing she wanted to do was show how bad they were doing with her ex. Her pride however needed to be put aside and she knew that, she just didn't like it.

Regina elbowed her in the side urging her to get to the point before she did.

"I haven't spoke to her since that time in the study. Why do you ask? Is something wrong?" Glenda began to get worried. Dealing with you two there is never a dull moment.

"We all may have had a misunderstanding that she took the wrong way and she just left. She took her magic back from us so we can't feel her anymore. She won't speak to us, and disappears when we come in the room. She's cloaked herself in magic so we can't locate her. She's mad at us for no reason!" Emma explained.

"We just didn't know who else to turn to. If you don't know where she is and you can't find her, then what should we do? Do you have any experience with this happening before?" Regina questioned.

Glenda was surprised. Usually, a woman would never ask the ex for advice, but she assumed they were desperate. She knew how Robyn could be and she genuinely liked both women.

"What happened to cause her to completely avoid you? For her to do that she must've really felt hurt or felt as if she was hurting you. So what details am I missing?"

"Our ex's came back to warn us about something and we were both caught in compromising situations. It might have seemed like we still harbored feelings for the men. However, that was untrue. They are our friends, but she wouldn't give us time to explain and she wouldn't listen." Regina said in answer.

"Ah, ok I get it. Robyn was jealous and I'll be honest getting Robyn to talk to you can be difficult. Robyn is a person who appreciates action. She has a way with words, but the actions she puts behind them make them more powerful. One thing about Robyn, if she didn't actually say verbatim, 'we are over,' then you still have hope. She will probably be somewhere in a 5 mile area to where you are. If she is under an invisibility cloak the connection you have with her as her true love will help you find her. Emma being a child of true love you should have no problem locating her. Or the next time you see her in the Castle or with your son, as soon as you do, tie her up. She won't fight you back and she won't hurt you. I suggest you take some time with her, a few days maybe to reconnect. Also, she's going to want something from you to that you have never given to anyone. Basically, she's going to want assurance that you truly want to be with her, that you truly love her."

"Is there anyway you could tell us when she calls you? We just want to know how she's doing." Emma was so frustrated this had spiraled out for no reason.

"I will give you this, when Robyn calls, I will alert you and activate the mirror so you can see for yourselves how she's doing." Glenda smiled hoping the two women would take her help.

"I do not like invading her privacy, but all is fair in love and war. Thank you Glenda." Regina said sincerely.

Regina conjured two compact mirrors for them both, keeping them close for when Glenda called.

By the 8th day being separated, Robyn figured they had decided to let her go. She needed to talk to someone before she did anything stupid, like killing the Pirate. The Grand Witch walked to her wall to floor length mirror and commanded it to find Glenda.

When the Good Witch of OZ appeared, Robyn said through a cracked voice, "Glenda, can you come here? I need to talk to you."

All of Robyn's bravado had been stripped away at the moment and only the woman had been left emotionally bare.

"Of course, let me inform Dorothy of my leave." It was almost near dinnertime in her world, whereas it was well past midnight in Robyn's world. Glenda took the opportunity to alert the mirror and activated it, hoping the women were watching.

Regina walked out of the bathroom and noticed the mirror's magic surfacing and waved it open making sure they weren't being seen. Emma looked up from her book and got up to stand by Regina.

Glenda stepped through the glass and opened her arms to embrace her former love.

"What's wrong, Robyn?" Glenda asked as she stroked Robyn's hair, holding her close.

Robyn began sobbing uncontrollably. There had only been one time Glenda saw Robyn cry in the 150+ years of being with her and that was when they broke up. It wasn't mutual and she knew it hurt Robyn deeply. Glenda hadn't realized how much her friend was hurting.

"Why does no one choose me? Why?! What's so great about being Grand if its still not enough to be loved?"

"What happened Robyn?" Glenda asked as if she didn't already know.

Robyn pulled away and ran her fingers through her hair. "I don't know Glenda. The fucking Pirate came back and Emma just ran to him. Regina she letting him—her supposed past true love Robin fucking Hood—hold her. After all those men have done to them. In time of need they run to them. Them! Glenda, they run to a one-handed pirate and fucking homeless thief! Hood has betrayed Regina, used her and made her second at every turn. Hook has done the same, even so far as to help the Queen of Hearts. But they don't run to me, one of the three most powerful beings in all the 9 realms." Robyn's accent was so thick that if Glenda wasn't used to it she would have missed some words.

The tears began to fall again. "Why…Glen, why? You ran to Dorothy. After 150 years together, you left me. Why am I so surprised that they would do the same after a month?"

Glenda move into her space and leaned so that their foreheads touched.

"Robyn, I love you and I always will, but don't give up on these two women. I know for a fact that they haven't given up on you. Please understand that we were never meant to be. We both knew that something was missing between us. They love you Robyn. You are enough. You are my best friend and I never want to be without you." Glenda lightly chuckled and leaned back to look at her taller friend. "Oh Robyn, you were always the jealous type."

"I am not jealous of the pirate and the thief." Robyn walked away and crossed her arms. She turned her back to her and said, "I'm jealous of what the women feel for them."

"Robyn have it ever occurred to you that they may have the same relationship with the men like the one you and I have. They weren't in relationships with them at all from what I understand and you should know that. I know you know that. All I'm saying is give them a chance to at least explain it to you for their point of view." Glenda tried to reason with Robyn. She needed to say something to really make it hit home for Robyn. "You know one of the things I do not miss was the way you simply never listened to my side of things when we argued. It was infuriating. Don't make the same mistake with these women. They are mortals and by the time you realize that all of this was for nothing, they will be gone."

The Grand Witch nodded and then pulled Glenda closer by the hips, holding her close. "You are right. I will give them a chance."

"And you will drop the locator blocking spell? And stop avoiding them?" Glenda asked. Robyn could be devious sometimes.

Robyn rolled her eyes and exhaled deeply, "I will do all that you have asked."

"Then do one more thing for me, choose happiness Robyn. Fight for their love." Glenda squeezed her tighter as they held each other and backed away. "Goodnight Robyn, and do not call me until all has been right again."

Glenda stepped back into her Realm and closed the connection from her side. As soon as the connection closed, Robyn dropped all of her shields and released the locator spell. When they were ready to look for her they would find her. She smiled in the dark and began to get ready for bed.

Meanwhile at the Castle both women stood in silence trying to process all that they had seen. Maybe they hadn't shown Robyn they cared when it mattered. Either way both of them could sleep easy knowing that they would have a chance to speak to Robyn and make everything right.

They looked at each other and then walked to the locator map. Sure enough a bright yellow pulse on the map appeared close to the Castle. They both sighed in relief at the positive sign.

"Regina… tomorrow I think we should go see Robyn." Emma said quietly. It took a lot of energy to look for Robyn, and Emma knew as soon as she hit the pillow that she would be sleep. She just wished she Robyn could be there as well.

"I agree. I also think that for maybe a couple days we should each spend time with Robyn alone to try to reconnect with her."

"I was just thinking about that. Her and I have a lot of…fuc—uh, talking to do." Emma blushed sheepishly.

Rolling her eyes at her girlfriend, Regina was amused that they both had the same idea about how to spend their time with her. Although most of the time Emma had the libido of a teenage boy. "So, tomorrow Savior?"

"Tomorrow, lets call it Operation Make up!"

"Eh, I don't think that works, dear. Maybe operation names should be left to our son. Now would you like to join me in bed? We need our rest for long day and possibly long night tomorrow." Regina said as she pulled back the sheets on the bed.
