Vanessa took a deep breath and stared at herself in the mirror "Today's the day" she whispered to herself, she made her way downstairs seeing her brother relaxed on the white sofa in the living room
"I'm leaving Adam, I'll see you later" she said trying to run out the door before he asked any questions, he shut off the T.V and jogged to meet up with her in the foyer
"Where are you off to V?" Adam asked
"I'm just going to visit mom" she said, he studied her for a few seconds
"Alright, hurry back! Henry called me and needs to talk to us" Adam said
Shit, she thought to herself. They knew already, she knew she shouldn't have told Logan
"Yah, I'll probably meet you guys at Ruby's or something" she said kissing her brother on the cheek and darting off into the forest, tears formed in her blue eyes as she raced towards the graveyard, she knew what she was doing was crazy, changing the past is a dangerous thing but not being able to have met her father and her mother being under a sleeping curse was a fate worse than death she thought to herself. She pushed through the gray doors of the tomb, pushing aside her grandfather Henry's coffin and headed down the stairs. She walked up to her mother's vault of hearts and held her hands out, one of the slots opened and a box hovered into her hands, she opened the box and took out a heart, She then walked towards the enclosed glass coffin where her mother was. She sighed bringing a shaky hand onto the cool glass, tears fell from her eyes.
"Vanessa?" a voice called from behind her, she jumped and quickly turned around having the heart in her hand behind her back
"Are you ok dear?" Tink asked lifting Vanessa's chin with her finger
"Yeah, I'm fine" she said wiping her tears away
"Then why did you take your heart back?" Tink asked
"What are you talking about?" Vanessa said trying to mask her plan
"I can hear it beating Vanessa, what are you up to?" she asked again
"Tink please, just trust me" Vanessa begged
"Your mother left me in charge of you two, I don't know what you're up to but taking back your heart isn't going to solve anything, you were the very one who told me you couldn't handle the pain of it and pulled it from your chest."
"I need magic, alright" Vanessa snapped back
"For what? What else could you possible want dear? You can't bring back your mother, she decided her fate a long time ago"
"I can" she yelled back
"Vanessa, please. Things could go very wrong if you try and change the past, you possible won't get a chance to be born" Tink said
"It's a chance I'm willing to take" Vanessa said pushing her heart back into her chest, she turned to Tink "I'm sorry" she said lifting a finger and freezing Tinkerbell in her place
"What about your brother? Your family here?" Tink yelled
"They'll be okay, just tell Adam I'm really sorry. But if everything goes to plan, my mom will be alive again and I'll have a complete family" Vanessa said she closed her eyes and lifted her hands, she felt magic surge through her body reaching her fingertips and then disappearing. Her eyes flicked opened and she grinned, a small portal had opened up.
"Still got it" she whispered to herself
"Vanessa, please! Regina would never forgive me for letting you leave" Tink said struggling to get free but it was no use, her magic was the strongest magic she'd ever seen. Vanessa turned to look at Tink and her mother in the coffin, she shook her head "I'm sorry" she said and took a step back vanishing into the portal. As the portal collapses it sent a surge of magic through the air flying Tinkerbell back, knocking her unconscious.
"Now that I've fed you, what were you talking about back at the line?" Henry asked
"Oh, yeah. Long story short, that Marian wasn't the real one it was mom's sister Zelena the wicked witch of the west" Roland said as he took a sip of his drink
"Uh, this is kind of hard to believe" Henry said shaking his head
"Fine, to the mirror we go!" Roland said getting up from his seat
"What mirror?" Logan asked as he followed Henry and Roland outside
"Our mom had this special mirror inside her vault that lets you see the past" Henry said
"Whoa really?" Logan said amazed
"She was the Evil Queen, she had a lot of special things" Henry said
"Well here we are" Roland said pushing open the doors, Henry followed him. Logan tried to go through the doorway but it wasn't letting him in
"Oh, forgot to tell you. Blood only" Henry said
"But how is Tink in there?' Logan said pouting
"That's Regina's best friend, my mom made an exception" Henry said
"Man this isn't fair!" Logan whined
"That's life for ya kid" Roland said laughing, they both pushed the coffin aside and made their way down the steep steps. They stood in front of a dark curtain and pulled it off, behind it was a huge, beautiful silver mirror.
"Bro, this thing is so cool" Roland shrieked, Henry laughed
"You're still the same, excited about everything" Henry said throwing his arm around his brother's shoulder
"Show me Zelena 21 years ago" Roland yelled, the mirror started to get foggy but soon cleared showing a woman in Regina's kitchen pouring something in Regina's coffee mug.
"What is she doing?" Henry asked squinting his eyes
"She was pouring an envious potion in mom's drink" Roland said
"What? How can you tell?"
"The vial says "Envious potion"" Roland stated
"Oh, what is that for though?"
"I bet you that's what drove mom crazy that day, she killed Marian"
"Maybe" Henry said "Follow her actions from the beginning" he yelled into the mirror, they saw it all. Zelena had managed to get a glimpse of her future, she saw that Rumple would be the cause of her death. She accepted the fact that she would die but she decided she would ruin Regina's happiness first. She appeared in Storybrooke as Marian and used magic to cloud Robin and John's minds, so that they turned on Regina. She told Robin to meet her by the lake that evening, She then slipped the potion into Regina's coffee causing Regina to get insanely jealous and angry ultimately leading up to getting herself killed as "Marian" by the lake.
"Oh my god" Roland said, his eyes wide with terror "She's crazy"
"You can say that again"
"What are we going to do?" Roland asked
"We –" Henry started to say, he and Roland both heard a groan from the other room
"What was that?" Roland asked
"I don't know, it's coming from mom's resting room" they both ran into the other room, searching the room for anything unordinary. Roland glanced behind the coffin "Is that Tinkerbell?" he made his way around the coffin and helped the blonde up
"Are you okay?" Henry asked
"Fine" she said faintly
"What happened?" he asked
"Your sister" she whispered, rubbing her head
"What about her?"
"She took her heart back" Tink said, Henry and Roland immediately looked at each other
"You have to go right now" Roland said
