Thanks for reading and to imaoncer4life I feel bad for her at some points to. You're not alone! Please review.
It had been a week sense Emma and Regina had fought, Emma avoided Regina for the most of it. She did everything she was told but the more she did the more she wanted to go outside without Regina's permission. Yes she still wanted to go to the other world with Regina but she knew if she did go outside she would not be caught.
That night at dinner Regina said "Henry will be here tomorrow and then we can prepare for our trip and we can go."
Emma said "how did you get him to come with us, is he in big trouble."
Regina said "what why would Henry be in trouble. He is just having a hard time accepting that he is my son. But we can show him together that we love him and he belongs with this family."
Emma was confused as she said "but why is that hard to accept, you're his mother."
Regina said "not by blood, I adopted him when he was just a little baby. His real mother did not want him."
Emma said "then who is his real mother, is Snow White his mother too."
Regina smiled gently knowing that this was the first time Emma had spoken to her sense that night when they had gotten into the fight. Regina said "No, dear she is not Snow White, she is snow white's daughter."
Emma said "you mean I have a sister, what person in town is it. Is Ruby my sister, she could be my sister."
Regina laughed a little as she said "no, Emma I don't know who his mother is. All I know is she is Snow Whites daughter, I am sure you will meet her later in your life."
Emma said "I hope I do, so I am Henry's aunt, this whole family tree thing is awful confusing. You were once my grandmother and now you're my mommy. "
Regina lightly pet Emma's hand as she said "I hope you know how much I love you, dear. I don't ever want you to be afraid of me. I never want you to see me as the evil queen. I hope you do not truly look at me in that way."
Emma smiled back at her and said "I have never seen you like that. Even when Henry kept telling me that we had to save the town from you I didn't believe. I know you were once, nut now that you have someone to love it has all vanished. If only you could have found someone to love earlier in your life you wouldn't have lived the life you did."
Regina felt as if she was going to cry. Emma was her daughter, she knew her so well. She would never let this light be taken away from her. Emma was everything she had ever wanted. Emma loved Regina as much as Regina loved her, and this made all the revenge in her heart fade away.
Regina stood up and opened up her arms and said "come here, give me a hug." Emma stood up with such happiness and ran into Regina's arms who whispered in Emma's ear "I love you to the ends of the earth." Regina kissed Emma's cheek before backing out of the hug and saying "someone needs to get to bed, it's almost an hour past you bedtime."
Emma ran to her room and said "I'll go get ready, can you read me a story. Like when we were at home." Regina nodded and Emma ran off.
OUAT****OUAT****OUAT****OUAT****OUAT
The next day when Emma woke up she quickly ran into the kitchen when she smelled breakfast, all she got for breakfast while they had been there was cereal. But today Emma smelled everything from bacon to eggs. Emma found Henry and Regina cooking together and instantly felt jealous. They hadn't even woken her to help.
Emma's bare feet felt cold against the wood underneath her and she felt her anger quickly enhance as she saw them. Henry had poisoned her mommy and now they were doing fun things without her. Things Regina had never done with her. When Regina saw Emma she said "look who I found to join us."
Emma said to Henry completely ignoring Regina "I thought you needed to save the town from the evil queen."
Henry said "um, what do mean Evil Queen. I think you read a little too much fairytales."
Regina said "Emma why don't we go talk in your room for a second." Emma gave Henry a evil look before following Regina to her room. When they got there Regina said "I had to change Henry a little to get him to come with us. You cannot speak about magic while he is around. He won't understand what you are speaking about."
Emma crossed her arms and pouted as she said "If he didn't want to come you shouldn't have done this to him. That's what bad people do, you have to be good mommy or else we cannot be friends."
Regina moved the hair away from Emma's eyes as she said "I had to, Henry is my son. He would still love me if it wasn't for that awful woman."
Emma said "you have to let him make his own decision, you can't blame other people for your own mistakes. It wasn't this woman's fault, it was yours."
Regina looked angry now, she knew Emma was right but she didn't want to believe it. If Emma never had come to town she would still have Henry. Henry would still love her like he had before. Regina said "get dressed, we are going tonight."
It suddenly dawned on Emma that once they left, she would never even be able to meet this real mother of hers. She often wondered what she was like. She wished she would be able to at least say goodbye to the real family she had never met.
Emma got ready as she was told and she also started to pack something's that she held dear to her, like the fairytale book and her baby blanket. When she came out with her bag Regina went to grab it but Emma held it close to herself and said "I'll hold onto this mommy, I don't want it to get lost."
Regina's eye brow lifted as if she could feel something funny going on and she said "what is in there that you don't want us to see dear."
Emma said "nothing." She looked guilty and she put it behind her and said "so when are we going."
Regina said "Show me what is in the bag, I won't be mad. Whatever it is, it cannot be that bad." Emma slowly gave Regina the bag who looked through it and when she found the blanket she looked it over before she said to Emma "where did you get this."
Emma played with her hands nervously as she said "My mommy gave it to me. I saw it in the book. I knew it was the same one because it had my name on it."
Regina said "I don't think we need to bring this with us dear. She is not your real mommy, so it shouldn't mean that much." Emma quickly grabbed for it but Regina held it out of her reach and said "I will get rid of it."
Emma felt tears as she said "no mommy you can't, I want it. It's all I have of my real mommy. Please don't throw it away."
Regina gripped the fabric with anger as she said "we are not discussing this any longer. You do not need this, we don't need any memories of those horrible people. If you cannot be a good girl and do as you are told I won't allow you to bring anything along with you."
Emma crossed her arms and said "all I want to bring is that, it's mine not yours you cannot throw it away on me."
Regina said "watch me dear, and she stormed off followed by a hysterical Emma. Before Emma could fight Regina on it Regina through it into the fire and Emma watched it now silently in shock. She felt Regina's eyes on her and she instantly started to cry.
She looked over at Regina and said "why did you do that, I don't want to go anywhere with you. You ruin everything." She ran into her room.
It was almost dark when Emma heard Regina knock on the door and say "Emma we have to go, come out here."
Emma didn't move she quickly got up and locked the door and said "I'm not going anywhere with you." She heard Regina trying to open the door.
When Regina realized it was locked she said "unlock the door this instant. If I have to use magic you will be punished."
Emma said "no I will not, go away." The door instantly slammed open and when Emma saw how angry Regina seemed she quickly said "I'm sorry, I'm coming."
Emma started to walk towards the door but Regina blocked it and knelt down so they were eye level and said "I will let you off with a warning dear, do not ever do that again. If you keep this attitude up I will have no other choice other than to punish you. I do not want that do you?"
Emma shook her head and Regina said "Go to the basement with Henry while I lock up around here." Emma Quickly got her converse from her room and grabbed her bag before joining Henry who was nothing like the real Henry. He was worse.
Regina joined them shortly after and said "I am going to throw this bean, once you see a portal you will grab my hand, both of you and we jump together. Do not jump before we are holding hands because if you do there is a chance you will not go to the same place that we are going."
Both kids nodded and took her hand and Regina let go of Henrys so she could throw the bean. She grabbed it quick and she said "on the count of three we will jump, one, two three." They jumped and for Emma it felt as if the world stopped for a second. All she could see was the color green. It floated like clouds dragging them somewhere. Emma quickly looked over to Regina who seemed to be in some kind of trance.
Regina didn't look like she was there with them. It scared Emma. It was like the magic took Regina over. She was possessed by it. Without warning Emma fell to a hard floor, when she looked around she did not see Regina or Henry.
She quickly started to walk down the hall, it felt dark. Emma could feel the tortured souls who once lived here. She felt the dark magic surrounding her, it was in the air. She did not like the feel of the castle. She wanted to run away from it.
Emma kept running and quickly looked behind her afraid something was following her. Without warning she crashed into something and when she looked up she saw her mother. She was her mother but Emma could feel something more. Something scary, something dark and taunting.
Regina wore a black dress with knee high boots, with leather leggings. Emma could see the evil queen as her mother wore these clothes. Emma instantly backed away and looked up at Regina and said "oh sorry. You weren't there when I woke up."
Regina smiled down at her and said "I was sent to another place in the castle as was Henry, he is in the dining room. I have come to retrieve you." Emma could hear the emptiness in Regina's voice as she spoke. She felt as if she was talking to a stranger.
Regina held out her hand as she said "come dear, I will show you the way.' Emma took Regina's hand which she found warm. Emma suddenly realized how cold it was in the castle. She quickly nuzzled into Regina as they walked to meat Henry.
