Land of Untold Stories- Thirty Years Ago

It's been almost a week since Evie had left the Enchanted Forest and she was lost. The portal did not open to a village or a town, but in the middle of a forest. Since then, she had been wandering aimlessly, hoping that she would find any signs of civilization.

She looked up at the sky and knew that she should start finding some firewood and a place to rest. Her hand unconsciously wrapped around her necklace she had made shortly after her arrival. It may had not been as beautiful as the one her mother had given to her, but it was just as precious, as it held the only clue to her sibling. The dragon egg.

Evie carried on, knowing that one day she would meet them.

It wasn't until another hour till she stumbled unto a small cabin. It looked old, the plants in the front was overgrown and unkempt. It was dark inside, as if no one had been there in a long time. Evie took this as a good sign and decided that she would stay there for the night. It was a good thing that she had found the cabin as dark clouds started rolling in. Quickly she walked up to the cabin, not wanting to be caught in the rain.

However, before she could walk to the front door, she quickly took a few steps back as a wall of fire appeared before her. She felt her magic build up in her hands as she looked around to see who was responsible. Evie let out a gasp as she heard a mighty roar from the sky. Her eyes locked on to the source of the fire.

It was a dragon. One that was black and orange. Evie fell back as the dragon swooped down and headed towards her. She quickly got up and ready to fight. She didn't want to, but if she had to, then she must. Time seemed stand still has the dragon stared her down. At first she thought it was trying to scare her- it was working- but that wasn't the case. It took a moment for Evie to realize that he was staring at her necklace. More precisely, the dragon egg.

Then a cloud of orange smoke engulfed the dragon and soon left only a man. One that looked like in his thirties, but his dark eyes looked hard and cold. One that a person who had live a long life would wear. She wonder how old he really was or how long had he been there.

"You're a dragon," he said more like a question. His head still hung high as he was trying to intimidate her.

"N-no," Evie answered. He sneered at her and disappeared in a cloud of orange smoke. Only to reappear in front of her.

"Then why did you have this?" He grabbed the dragon egg. "What dragonling did you skin for this?"

"W-what? No! I did no such thing," Evie defended herself. He growled in response, not believing her story. He sneered once more as he started to head back to his cabin.

"I seek shelter," he stopped at his door as she yelled out to him. She didn't want to stay with him, but the rumbling of thunder reminded her that rain was coming. And she doubt that she would find another cabin before the rain started.

"And why should I let a thief stay here?" He turned around, giving her a cold stare.

"I am not a thief," Evie said offendly.

"Intruder," he corrected himself.

"I didn't know anyone lived here," Evie tried to justified herself, but the young man let out a sigh of annoyance. "I am sorry. I did not mean to enter your house without permission. Will you permit me to stay one night and I will leave tomorrow morning," thunder roared throughout the sky, followed by a flash of lighting. "Please sir, all I ask is shelter from the rain and nothing more," Evie pleaded once more.

"I have no food to offer," he replied coldly. "You may sleep near the fireplace and be gone in the morning, even if the storm is still raging. Oh and one more thing. No magic," he turned back and walked into the cabin, leaving the door open for her. Without giving him a chance to reconsider, Evie quickly headed inside.

A door slammed before she had a chance to thank him. More likely to his room. Evie took this time to look around the cabin. A fireplace with the fire roaring on the other side of the room. A small table near a window on the left side of the room while on the right lead to a hall towards the door that just slammed.

Evie closed the door and huddle towards the fire to warm herself. She knew this was going to be a long night as the thunder roared again. She took a deep breath and laid down on the ground, trying to get some sleep.

And sleep came to her for a few hours. That is until she heard someone talking. Not just someone, two someones. Both men, but neither was her host. She kept her eyes closed, pretending she was still asleep. One of them asked if she was the dragon. The other said no. That the dragon he followed was a blonde hair male. Her host.

Quietly, Evie got up from her spot as the two men head down the hallway to the man's room. Without a second thought, she raised her hand and a blue flame appeared. She yelled out to get the burglars attention. Their face went pale as they saw the flame. She threw the flame over their heads as a warning, hitting the door. The two scrambled pass her to escape. But Evie didn't let them go that easy. She followed them to the front door and threw another blue fireball near their feet.

She watched them flee into the forest. Knowing that those two were lurking nearby, Evie knew she wasn't going back to sleep that night.

She swiftly turned around as she heard someone clearing their throat behind her. It was her host, and from the looks of it he wasn't to happy. Evie opened her mouth to apologize for breaking the no magic rule, but he put up his hand to stop her.

"Why?" Was all he asked. Evie gave a confused look as she didn't know what he was talking about. Why did she break the rules or why were those men there?

"Why did you do that? Why did you attacked them?"

"Because it was the right thing to do," Evie didn't have to think about it. The men were there to either steal from him or harm him. Yes, the man was cold, but that was his home. You don't break into someone's home. Especially a dragon's home. That was suicide.

"One of them said that they followed you here."

"Stupid humans," he shook his head. Evie's brows grew together, confused on what he meant. "They truly believe that if you take a dragon scale that it could take you to another realm," he scoffed and sat at one of his chairs near the table.

"That's preprosperous," he raised an eyebrow when she said that. It reminded her of Maleficent. "Everyone knows that if you want to go to another realm is with a magic bean or a curse," the man chuckled at that before he smirked at her.

"What's your name?" he asked her.

"Evelyn. But everyone knows… knew me as Evie," she had to stop herself as she had to remember no one remembered her.

"Do you want to be Evie?" His question caught her off guard. She han never given it thought.

"I… I do not know," she shrugged her shoulders. A part of her would always be Evie, she knew that. But maybe this new land was a chance for her to start over like she wanted to. She could be stronger, a better person so when she found her sibling she would never leave them again.

Her host offered her the other seat on the other side of the table. Nodding her head she accept it. "The name is Morgan," he introduce himself.

From that night on, both their lives changed for the better. Soon Evie discovered that Morgan was Maleficent's son and he learned that not only the girl was his mother's apprentice, but they share a sibling. Since then, they vowed to protect one another no matter the cost.

Granny's

The dinner was busy as another celebration was held. The Evil Queen was gone, the curse the Evil Queen had place on the Charmings was broken, and Emma had her powers once more. Man, this town really do like their parties. Not that Maleficent mind at the moment as she carried her grandchild. Her heart swelled as he happily talked about some bear that love honey. He looked so much like Morgan when he was that age.

The Charming clan was surrounded by all their love ones, excitedly telling the others what had happened that day. A small smile appeared on Maleficent's lips as Jocelyn talked to Lily. She had to admit, Maleficent really liked her son's wife. She was kind and wanted to help Maleficent and Regina to get Lily to talk to them. And it didn't hurt that she was a dragon as well. Not that it matter, she trust her son's judgement. As long as it wasn't Briar Rose.

Speaking about Regina, Maleficent looked around the room to see Regina was still missing. Regina excused herself a while ago and hasn't return yet. Maleficent wanted to go to her, but she couldn't leave Marcus. Especially since Jocelyn was trying to get Lily to talk to her.

"Hopes he's not a handful," Morgan came from behind, offering to take his son. Marcus jumped into his father's arms, excited to see him.

"Not at all dear. He was a perfect angel." Morgan chuckled as he set Marcus down.

"Any luck?" He looked back at his wife and sister. Maleficent stayed quiet. She wanted to be hopeful and say yes, but didn't want to get her hopes up. Morgan could sense this and placed a comforting hand on his mother's shoulder.

"It's gonna be okay. She loves you. She wouldn't be hurt if she didn't."

"Where were you?" Maleficent asked, trying to change the subject.

"With Sophie," it was odd hearing Evie being called that name. Maleficent couldn't believe she was right under their nose this whole time. Speaking about her, she wasn't at the party either.

"Is she alright?"

"Yeah. She's at her shop. She wanted to know if Lily would be still interested in working there. I think I'll wait a moment."

"Did she said anything about Regina?"

"I can't say," he said hesitantly. "But she misses you. You should go see her," Maleficent nod her head. He was right. Evie was like Regina. They may seem like they were brave women, but scared of getting hurt.

"Pooh," Maleficent looked around the diner when she heard her grandson's voice further away from her than what she liked. Her eyes locked onto the little boy as he held onto a stuffed bear with pride. More likely belonging to the little girl, who looked about his age, standing right next to him.

Maleficent took this moment to look for Regina. She took one last look at Lily and Jocelyn. From the look of it, the two of them seem to getting along well. Something inside Maleficent told her that everything was going to be okay.

When she exited the diner, she didn't had to look hard to find Regina sitting at one of the tables. As she approached her, Maleficent could see that Regina mind was somewhere else. She followed Regina's gaze to see that she was staring at the only shop that still had it's light on. The Black Cauldron.

Instead of sitting right next to her as she originally planned to, Maleficent came behind Regina, wrapped her arms around her waist with her chin resting on her shoulder. However, Regina was too gone to notice this. Maleficent hated Regina like this, it reminded her of their later years in the Enchanted Forest.

"It's going to be okay," She gave Regina light squeezed. She wasn't going to leave Regina alone, not this time.

"She didn't want me there," Regina finally said after the two had been in silence for some time now.

"You know that's not true," Maleficent said. "Evie loves you," She may had not known what happened earlier in the shop, but the one thing Maleficent did know was that young witch loved her mother. She remembered the way her eyes lit up when Regina would visit them at her castle. And when Regina was away, Evie would talk about how she wanted to practice her magic so she could protect her mother. Even when she grew and learned the truth about Leopold's death, the one person she worried about was her mother. The reason Evie wanted to leave the Enchanted Forest was for Regina.

No, Maleficent refused to believe that her former pupil didn't want her mother. Scared and hurt probably, but she still loved her. Maleficent had to see her. She unwrapped her arms and walked towards the shop.

"Where are you going?" Regina asked.

"I'm going to go see her," Maleficent stood there hoping that Regina would join her. And just like she suspected, after a few moments, Maleficent could hear Regina getting up from her seat. Then soon, her hands intertwine with Maleficent's. Maleficent looked up to see that Regina was still scared. With a reassuring squeeze to her hand and smile, Maleficent lead the way to the Black Cauldron.

Land of Untold Stories- Twenty Years After They Met

Since that fateful night, Morgan continued his mother's worked and became a mentor to Evie. Although to the rest of the world, they were brother and sister. With that, Evie decided to change her name in memory of her faithful handmaid, Sophia. Evie might be dead and forgotten to the rest of the realm, but that didn't mean that Sophia had to be as well.

Everyday, the two worked on her magic. And with each day, her powers grew stronger. Especially when it came to brewing potions. There were those who would seek her if they had ailments. She asked no question and was glad to help. She felt important. Although Morgan didn't mind that Sophia, Sophie he would like to call her, like to help others. What he did mind was strangers coming to his home.

So one day he took Sophia to his hidden cave where he had his horde. Jewels, coins, and treasures, most made from silver, filled the cave. Like mother like son. As Morgan collected some coins, three gems caught her eye. Sapphire, onyx, and amethyst. Seeing this, Morgan gave the three stones to Sophia as a gift. She happily accepts the stones.

When they returned home, Morgan told her that he had found a small shop in the town near by where she could help people. The two agreed that it was time for them to have a change. Sophia would make the potions and Morgan would handle the finance.

The night before the two left for the city, Sophia declared that she wanted to change her appearance. Morgan asked her why. She replied if she truly wanted to start over, then she really wanted to start over. Morgan suggested a glamor spell, in case she would ever want to change back to her old self.

Using the three stones he had given her, which was now apart of her necklace with her sibling's egg shell, Morgan placed the spell on it so it would change her appearance.

The morning that they were to leave, Evie took one more look at herself in the mirror. Her mother's dark hair. Her blue eyes. She knew once she put on the necklace, it would be gone. Any trace of her former self would disappear. Hesitantly, she placed the necklace around her neck. Once she let go, there stood another girl around her age. One with pale skin and dark wavy hair. Her famous sapphire eyes were replaced with hazel. At that moment, Evie was gone. Only Sophia remained.

...

It didn't take long for the two to settle into their new home and shop, the Black Cauldron. People from around the realm would come and see her if they were in need. Shortly, the two had to make their own garden to have ingredients on hand.

It was a couple of months after the move Sophia began to notice a certain red head woman would come by the store every day and talk to Morgan. She let out a chuckle after the woman left and Morgan gave her a confused look.

"She likes you," Sophia teased.

"What? That's absurd," Morgan was flabbergasted.

"That she likes you? Why not brother dear?"

"Sophie she doesn't like me like that," Sophia rolled her eyes. "She's just a customer."

"Of course. One that comes in everyday to talk to you."

"And to you," he tried to defend himself.

"All right," she threw her hands in defeat. "But know this, just because time is frozen and does not move on here, does not mean we should not either," she said, referring to the Briar Rose incident. With that, Sophia went to the garden to retrieve more herbs.

It took while, but Morgan realized that she was right. And he was glad that he had followed her advice, for a few years later that customer became his wife.

Their ceremony was small, only consisting the bride, groom, Sophia and the priest. Neither the bride nor groom wanted a big wedding. After the ceremony, Sophia came up to the two and offered them their gift. It was a potion. Not just any potion, but one that would allow the couple to have a child. Sophia had been working on it for a long time and the ingredients were extremely hard to come by.

However, the price the two would had to pay for this was that they had to leave the town forever. If news came out that Jocelyn was with child, they would be hunted down. It wasn't until a year after they were married they decided they wanted this. So the two moved back to Morgan's old cabin and started their family.

Sophia was happy for them. After all the two of them had went through in their lives, they deserved a child.

She stayed in the town and was the sole owner of the shop. She grew anxious as the twenty eight year mark drew near. Sophia remember the apprentice promise to release her and her search for her sibling would begin.

Yet time came and went and the apprentice never appeared. Hope and faith began to lessen as days turned into months. Months turned into years. The point where she was about to give up all hope was the same time four strangers from another land came into the Land of Untold Story. Soon after, Sophia woke up in a new land. A land that was known to have no magic, except for one town in Maine.

Black Cauldron

Regina was nervous to go into the store. Instead Maleficent went in without her. All Regina could do was look into the store window to see what was happening. She couldn't hear what was being said, but she knew that Maleficent was calling for Evie. Regina's chest tighten as her daughter didn't come out. Perhaps she didn't want neither her nor Maleficent in her life. Maybe she was happier without them. Without her.

The idea that Evie was better off without her kept going through her mind until she saw her. There she was, her little bird, standing at the top of the staircase, coming out of a secret passage. Regina let out a breath she didn't notice that she was holding. She looked beautiful. Time had not affect her daughter. Her chestnut hair was tied to the side. She wore a white long sleeved cotton shirt under her leather corset top. Tan riding pants and leather boots completed her outfit. She looked like the same girl who would want to go riding with her. Except her eyes. It did not have the same shine it held once before. It was duller and Regina knew why.

Playing with her necklace, Evie walked down the steps and towards Maleficent. Regina wished she knew what she was saying. Well she could. All she had to do was go inside. Yet, Regina couldn't.

To many, Maleficent was a scary dragon, but Regina knew differently. Maleficent loved fiercely and she didn't hold back. Like now. Once Evie reached the bottom of the step, Maleficent quickly grabbed onto her, not wanting to let her go. Tears start to form at the edges of Regina's eyes as she saw a few escape Maleficent's.

Evie was taken back at this at first, but slowly her arms went around her former mentor and she rested her head on Maleficent's chest. The two stayed like that for a while, not wanting to let go of the other.

Regina felt like she shouldn't be spying on them during this intimate moment. She didn't belong in her daughter's life. Look at her. She didn't need her anymore. Evie had started her own business. She wanted to help people and she does. She helped Lily, Emma, hell even the Charmings. She learned more about potion making than Regina. Evie had everything Regina couldn't give her. She had people who loved her and a chance of a good future.

As much as Regina despise to admit this, it was a good thing that Evie wasn't part of the first Dark Curse and went to the Land of Untold Stories instead. Living the same day over and over again, Evie would had not been the woman she was today. Hell, even if Regina did remember her during the curse, her daughter wouldn't had been happy.

Regina looked up to see that Maleficent and Evie had move to the stairs. The two were sitting on the third step from the bottom. Regina knew this was a mistake coming here as tears started to fall from Evie's blue eyes. Regina knew she was the reason for those tears.

Maleficent held the young girl in comfort and let her cry. Regina knew that she had to get out of there. She had to leave. If she wanted Evie to be happy, then she couldn't be there. With a deep sigh, Regina put her hands in her coat pockets and walked towards the sidewalk. She knew it would be easier if she were to magic herself far away from the shop, but where would she go?

Not home, it was Henry's night to stay with her. She didn't want to go back to the party, she wasn't in the festive mood. Definitely not to the Charmings or Emma's house. Maybe her vault. That sounded like a good idea. She would put a protection spell so no one could come in. She just needed to be alone.

Before she had a chance to use her magic, Regina stopped as she heard her name being called. She quickly turned around to see Maleficent and Evie standing in front of the store. Even with the dimly lit light at the front of the store, Regina could see that her daughter's eyes were slightly red and puffy.

"Regina," Maleficent called out again. No point in hiding now that she had been caught. Regina walked back.

Normally, as of late, Regina couldn't get her eyes off of Maleficent. But not tonight. No instead it was focused on her daughter who was fiddling with her necklace. Regina's stomach tighten with each step as she knew what was going to happen.

Maleficent took her leave, knowing that Evie and Regina had to talk about this alone. Once Maleficent was gone, the two stood in silence, unsure who would say something first.

"Evie," the words finally escaped Regina's lips.

"Mother," it was bittersweet as she said this. There was no bitter in Evie's voice, but for as long as Regina could remember, her daughter never called her mother. It seemed to formal, and unlike Evie.

Regina was going to say that she was proud of the woman her daughter became and understood that if she didn't want her to be in her life she would understand, but she couldn't. When Regina looked at Evie, she could see herself. A person who was scared and nervous, one that had been hurt before. Someone who wanted to be loved.

"It is a pleasure to see you again," Evie said before Regina had a chance to speak. "I'm so proud of you. You two are finally together. You have your happy ending," she smiled. Regina missed that smile so much. "And I know that I am not apart of it. So I wish you two the best,"

"Evie," she stopped her in her tracks as she tried to go back inside. "Why would you think that? Why don't you think you're part of my happy ending," Regina placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. She had no idea why her daughter would ever feel that way. Some of her most cherished memories are of her.

"Because you are better without me," Evie gave a shrug before she turned her head to look over her shoulders. "You gave up your vengeance for Snow and accepted love," she gave a sad smile. "Without me," Regina's heart broke when she heard this. It hurt even more when her own daughter couldn't even look at her.

"I… I am the reason your heart went dark. I am the reason you became the Evil Queen. I was not enough," Evie's voice began to crack. Regina didn't mean this. None of this was true. She wasn't the reason why Regina choice hate over love, that was her mistake. Her stupid mistake that she still paid for to this day. She never wanted her daughter to feel that she wasn't enough. She was.

"Yes you were," Regina turned Evie around and placed both of her hands on each of her shoulders, making sure she was listening to her. "I don't know how much you remember about that night, but I do. I was not going to cast the curse because you asked me not to. I was going to do that for you," Regina gave a small smile. She remembered that night. It may had been a horrible memory, but it was a great one as well. She had found her daughter, Evie wanted to start over with her, to give Regina a second chance. And that was what Regina had always wanted, to be happy.

"And I made that forgetting spell and you forgot that you loved Mal," Regina had to stop this. She couldn't allow Evie to blame herself. It wasn't her fault. If she continued down that road she would be no better than… her mother… herself. No, she couldn't Evie make the same mistakes she did. Regina had to do the one thing her own mother didn't do when she was alive. Apologize.

"And you. I broke my promise and I forgot you. I'm sorry Evie for everything. I'm sorry I forgot you. I'm sorry I hurt you. I'm sorry that I made you feel that you weren't enough for me because you are. You, Henry, Lily, and Mal are enough for me. More than you know. You have nothing to be sorry about," Regina saw a twinge of hurt when she mentioned Henry. She knew she should ask about that, but not now. All that mattered was Evie and how she knew that she loved her.

"And I'm not upset with you either, I'm proud of you," she smiled that made Regina smiled. Regina knew that it would be a lot of work so they could have the relationship they once had, but she would do it and make it stronger. For Mal. For Lily. For Evie. "But I need more time," Evie took a step back and Regina's hands fell. "For the past thirty years, the one thing that had been on my mind was reuniting Mal and Lily. And now, I don't know what to do. I didn't think that far ahead. Please just give me a little more time," Evie seemed so small as she hugged herself.

"For you, always," Regina knew she was being bold, but damn it they both needed it. Regina walked closer to Evie and wrapped her arms around her daughter and held her tight. "I love you my little bird," Regina whispered her nickname into her ear.

"I love you too mama," Evie's arms went around Regina and hugged her back. Regina's heart swelled. For a moment, she had her daughter back. She had her baby girl back.

When she let go, Regina didn't see the witch who had her own shop, but the same five year old who would run to her room during thunderstorms. The one who saw her as a hero. Without a second thought, Regina kissed her daughter's forehead. Once her lips touched the top of her head, a light formed and went throughout the land, followed by a burst of magic.

True love kiss.

Once the magic was gone, Evie slowly opened her eyes, looking confused as Regina. But it wouldn't be like that for long. They heard people coming out of the diner to see what had happened. But there was one voice that stood out from the rest.

"Evie… Evie," the two turned to see Mary Margaret on the street. Then, Regina could see it. They remembered her. They remembered Evie.

"Snow ," Evie stepped out of Regina's arms and walked hesitantly towards her. But, Mary Margaret was impatient and ran and hugged her little sister. Then, more and more people Evie knew back in the Enchanted Forest came up to her and hugged her as they missed her.

It took a moment for Regina to notice Maleficent was right behind her, holding her from behind. "See, I told you that it would work out in the end." Regina smiled and nod. When Maleficent was right she was right. It did work out.
