"Robin! Wait!" Regina said, stepping in front of Will. "Stop before you do something you will regret."
"Regina, love, I am sure that I will not regret putting an arrow through his face." Robin said calmly, flexing his head for the rain of pain that he was about to give to Will Scarlet.
"Love, mind helping me out a bit?" Will asked, gesturing to his towel.
"Oh of course." She waved her hand and his towel changed into a pair of jeans.
"Now stand back milady, don't want you to get covered in blood." Will said, boldly stepping around her. "Let's go, ." He put up his fists.
"No! No one is fighting." Regina commanded. "Will, enough." She pushed the man back and stepped outside, facing Robin. "Robin, what are you doing here?" She asked softly.
"What am I doing here?" He repeated. "I wanted to be with my soulmate! But apparently she's moved on. With...that?!" He glared at Will. "When did-how could-how did this even happen?!" He stammered incredulously.
"Oh really, you're surprised?" Will demanded, stepping up behind Regina. "You leave for over 7 months, playing house with your wife and expect complete chastity from Regina? You expected her to put her life on hold for you?"
"It was the only way!" Robin roared.
"Sure it was, Mr. I don't know what to do." Will returned. "Now you show up like nothing happened. You didn't even call her!"
"Enough!" Regina snapped. "Out of both of you. I'm done with this."
"Regina." Robin reached for her hand. "Regina please, I know you still love me. I know that what we had was real, it was true. We are soulmates, we were meant to be together. How can you just forget it?"
"I didn't forget anything." Regina said, looking into his eyes. "I still love you, I don't think I'll ever stop. What we had was not the conventional relationship and I loved every second of it, but it has been 7 months. You didn't call. You didn't write, send me an email or text, anything!"
"You told me to move on."
"Then why are you back?" She asked. "In case you didn't know, this is not moving on."
"Regina, I love you." He pleaded.
"And I love you too, but I'm kinda with someone else now." She said, pulling her hand free.
Robin looked up at Will. "You're dead!" Will immediately closed the door, but Robin ran through it. As he came through, Will dealt him a brutal kick to the face that made Robin stagger for a moment before resuming the chase.
"Robin!" Regina yelled as she heard crashes from the houses and sighed. "Don't kill him."

"So you don't want me to arrest them for destroying your house?" Charming asked, looking at a very beaten and bloody pair of thieves handcuffed to the torn couch.
Regina sighed. "No. I have no idea what to do."
"Sound familiar?" Will hissed at Robin, who immediately began trying to free himself to wring Will's neck.
"Do you want me to take Robin out of here?" Charming asked.
"Yes." Regina sighed.
Charming nodded and lead Robin outside. He was able to glimpse his soulmate restoring her home and healing his new rival's wounds. Charming drove the heartbroken thief back to the station where Emma was waiting to heal him.
"What the hell happened?" Emma demanded.
"Why didn't you tell me about Will and Regina?" Robin asked.
"Oh, um…" Emma scratched the back of her head. "Because you were in New York?"
"How did they get together?! I mean how could she choose him of all people?! I told her I would come back for her. I would return and we would be together."
"You can't leave for like 8 months and then come back and expect everything to be the same as when you left." Emma pointed out. "You certainly can't show up and nearly murder her new boyfriend and almost destroy her house. Regina was heartbroken, Will helped her. A lot."
"I asked him to take care of her."
"He kinda is." She muttered.
"NOT like that." Robin sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "I can't lose her. I won't. Not to him, not to anyone."
"Well, you're in for one hell of a fight." Charming hit him in the back. "That's not going to be an easy accomplishment for someone who held a grudge for half of her life."
Robin smiled. "Then my victory shall be all the more sweeter when I win her back and destroy Will Scarlet."
