Morning had come quickly, and Harry woke up for the first time feeling free and happy.

Getting out of bed and putting his glasses on only to see Hedwig glowing a brilliant white light it was beautiful in a way.

Seconds later where Hedwig once was now stood a beautiful white Phoenix.

Harry knew that this Phoenix was still Hedwig.

Harry: Wow! Hedwig you..you look beautiful.

He was startled when heard Hedwig for the first time in his mind.

Hedwig: Thank you Master Harry.

Harry Gasped and ran out his room not sure what to make of the situation he was in.

He quickly found Regina in the kitchen making breakfast for everyone.

Running into the kitchen yelling

as he did.

Harry: MUM! MUM! Something happened to Hedwig. You really need to see this!

Concerned for his Owl, she quickly turned the stove off and took everything that was cooking of the heat.

Then quickly followed Harry to his room where Hedwig was still sitting patiently.

The moment Regina entered the room she felt a tingling feeling in her soul as if she was connected to the Phoenix somehow. But it was weak.

Regina: Harry? Is that your Owl?

Harry didn't say anything, but he nodded his head yes.

Regina: She is your familiar.

That has to be how she was able to become a Phoenix.

I read a book in the Enchanted Forest once that Phoenixes are born when their owners are born who will one day become their owners.

Phoenixes can take other forms before revealing their true form to their owners such as what Hedwig did.

They form a kind of soul bond with their master or Mistress.

They are fiercely protective of their owners.

They also have the ability to speak telepathy with whoever they are bonded with.

Harry? Has she spoken to you yet?

Harry: Y..yes, when I awoke this morning, she transformed before my very eyes. She was surrounded by a bright white light. When the light died down, She looked so beautiful and I just knew she was still Hedwig.

After telling her how beautiful she was she spoke to me, and when I heard her for the first time, and she told me thank you.

I kind of freaked out and went looking for you.

Regina: I see. Well, she is very beautiful Harry, you are very lucky to have her.

Not many people have a Phoenix as a familiar. They are very Rare as is.

Why don't you talk to her?

Harry hesitated at first but then he felt a calming wave of magic which allowed him to speak to Hedwig as he always did.

Stepping towards the magnificent bird.

As he did, he realized that the calming magic was actually coming from her and he couldn't help but smile.

Harry: Hey Hedwig, I'm sorry for freaking out earlier. I didn't expect you to talk back to me.

Hedwig: It's oh right Master Harry,

I knew you would freak out as you humans would say. And I knew you would go to Mistress Regina. So I waited to explain everything about me and the magical links I will soon have with not just you but Master Henry, Mistress Hermione, your Mother, Mistress Regina and her soul bonded partner.

Regina was surprised that she could hear Hedwig too.

Regina: Wait... How can I hear you? And what do you mean Henry will have a Magical link with you?

Henry doesn't have magic as far as I know.

Also, I don't have a soul bonded partner.

The owl turned Phoenix looked up to Regina.

Hedwig: Henry dose have magic.

But somehow as a baby his magic was blocked. I don't know how or by who.

But Henry will have a destiny. One that he will achieve alongside you and Harry.

And yes, you do have a soul bonded partner.

But from what I feel from you, this soul bond is very new and it's someone you already know and trust.

Regina: I see.

Harry: And What of Hermione?

How will she have a magical link to you?

Hedwig: Because of the soul bond you and Hermione have. You and her are meant to be together when the time comes. And because of that she will have a magical link to me in time as will Henry when his magic awakens.

Think of me as a family familiar.

Although very ware it has happened.

I'm sure Hermione would be able to find something on this subject.

Regina's Office

Three hours later Regina was sitting in her office thinking about what to do next. After hearing what Hedwig had said, she knew her place was in the Magical world with her two sons and Hermione. She couldn't help but wonder what Emma would say when she finds out that Henry was coming with her to the wizarding world.

She felt a sadness she couldn't explain as she thought of Emma.

The last thing she wanted to do is hurt her again.

Her sadness was so great, that Emma felt it on the other side of town with

both of them unaware of their newly formed soul bond.

One that was always meant to be.

Not knowing why, she called Regina as she felt that the sadness was coming from her. She just knew it.

Regina sighed as she heard the phone ring.

Regina: Regina Mills.

Emma: Hey Regina? Are you okay?

Confusion as to why she would ask that question. Surely, she couldn't know...could she?

Regina: I'm fine Ms. Swan, Why do you ask?

Regina could hear the confusion in Emma's voice.

Emma: I..I'm not sure.

You'll think I'm nuts when I tell you this.

Regina: Just tell me Ms. Swan, I'm not in a mood for games.

Emma: Sorry.

Sounding sheepishly.

Well, you see, I'm at the station working and a few minutes ago,

I suddenly was overwhelmed by a great sadness. I just knew it came from you.

I can't explain how I knew, I just was you.

It's why I called.

Regina realizing that it was Emma who was her soul bond partner.

Now she just had to break the news to her and her idiot parents.

Although it will be entertaining to see the Charming's reaction that their child was always meant to be with her,

The former Evil Queen.

A smirk playing at her lip as she thought,

"Oh, this is going to be interesting".

Regina: Emma, I need you to come to my house after work around 6:00.

I have to go, your mother's here and I need to set her up here before I leave tomorrow see you later hanging the phone up not giving Emma the chance to respond back to her.

It was almost 6 and Regina had finished cooking for everyone and now she was in the living room waiting for Emma and her parents to come as she had asked Snow and David to come at the same time as Emma.

Ten Minutes to Six she heard a knock on her door.

When she opened the door, she didn't expect to see Emma Dressed in a pair of black Dress pants with a white long sleeved shirt and a black leather vest.

She looked gorgeous in Regina's Mind.

She didn't notice the Lilac Flowers until Emma handed them to her.

Emma: Henry said you like Lilacs so...

Regina: Thank you Emma, I love them.

Taking the flowers and putting them in an empty Vase nearby.

Regina: Come in, the kids are upstairs until it's time to eat.

You can sit in the living room while I set the table heading back to the kitchen, but Emma gently grabbed Regina's wrist.

Emma: Regina Wait. I know my parents are coming in a few minutes, but I need to tell you something that I have been struggling with all week.

If I don't tell you now, I may never get another chance.

Regina: Emma what are you...

Emma: Regina, please let me say this before I lose my nerve.

Regina: Okay Emma, say what you want to say.

Emma took a deep breath her hands shaking.

Regina, I'm in love with you and have been since Never Land. Why do you think Hook isn't here in town?

He left last night after I told him I wasn't interested in him.

If you give me a chance to be with you, I will make sure you and the kids are happy. I'd do anything you ask of me, and I would do everything in my power to make it happen.

Regina couldn't help but smile as she heard Emma confess her love for her.

This just made things easier for her.

Regina: Oh Emma...I'd love to be with you. And to be honest with you I have feelings for you too. But my place is in the Wizarding world now.

I must take my place as Queen.

Would you come with me and the kids? I know you would make a great ruler at my side when the time comes.

Emma: I'd love to Regina; my place is and will always be at your side.

Regina? Can I kiss you?

Regina: Yes you may.

Then they kissed with all the passion they had for each other.

As they kissed, a rush of magic surrounded them along with a burst of rainbow lights that went through all of Storybrooke strengthening the protection spell that surrounded the town.

Realizing what just happened they knew without a doubt that they were true loves.

Emma: Wow we're true loves.

Smiling as she said this.

Regina: Not just true loves Emma, we're soul mates as well.

Then kissed Emma again.

A few minutes later, they heard a knock at the door.

Regina: Well, that would be your parents.

Let's get this done and over with.

Then walked to open the door seeing a very shaken up Snow White and Prince Charming.

Regina: Hello Snow, David, please come in.

Regina smiled sweetly which only made Snow and David wearier of her.

David: Um...Regina? What are you up to?

Feeling devious, Regina Smirked, and couldn't help but laugh evilly.

Raegina: Really David?

Stepping in front of David and leaned into his personal space.

Regina: If I was up to something you'd never know.

Then walked away from him still smirking as she did.

Then sat next to Emma who shook her head looking at Regina.

Emma: Really Regina?

Regina: What? Looking at Emma looking as Innocent as could be.

I was just stating a fact and you know it.

Emma: Un huh...Whatever.

Then looked at her parents who looked confused at their antics as they were fighting four days ago.

But now they looked like the best of buddies which Snow had a feeling it had something to do with that magical blast that happened a few minutes ago.

And she really hoped that she was wrong at what she was thinking.

Regina looked and Snow and David and smiled.

Regina: Snow, David please sit down.

There are some things that we need to talk about before the kids come down for dinner.

Snow: Regina? Is this about the magical blast that happened a few minutes ago?

Regina: It's partly the reason yes but not all of it.

Emma: Regina, let me tell them please.

Regina could see this was something Emma needed to do this, so she nodded her head for Emma to continue where she left off.

Emma Turned back to her parents smiling at them as she prepared herself for what they would say when they found out that she was leaving with Regina and the kids taking Henry with them.

Emma: Mom, remember about an hour ago when you asked me why I was dressed up so nicely?

Snow: Yes, you looked so nervous.

Like you were about to go on a date.

But you left before I could ask you who you were dressed up for..

Emma: Yes, well..I wanted to look nice for Regina, before telling her how I felt for her.

That Magical blast you felt moments ago?

It was us kissing for the first time. Mom, dad Regina and I are True Loves.

Before Snow or David could say anything,

They all turned towards the stairs when the Heard Henry.

Henry: Really? Mom, Ma? Your True loves?

Henry was smiling when he asked, while Hermione and Harry where confused.

Regina: Yes Henry, your mother and I are true loves.

Henry ran to Regina and hugged her.

Henry: I knew you two were meant to be.

Now we can be a real family Me, you Ma and Harry.

Snow on the other had didn't like what was told to her and David.

Snow: No... this can't be right.

Hook is Emma's true love not you Regina!

Regina: Excuse me?

Emma: You didn't just say that Snow.

Both of their voices sounded low and deadly.

David quickly got up to defuse a fight before it could really happen.

He grabbed Snow roughly by her arm. yelling at her as he pulled her to the door that would lead them outside and away from two very angry women.

He was just as angry but at least he didn't have magic.

David: I can't believe you just said that!

Regina is our friend now Snow.

If anything, I'm happy for them.

And why are you so against them being together?

They just shared a true love's kiss and you're denying it. Why?

Snow: BECAUSE! THE EVIL QUEEN AND THE SAVIOR WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE TOGETHER!

REGINA DOSENT DESERVE A HAPPY ENDING!

ESPECIALLY NOT WITH EMMA!

David just shook his head as he turned to see the look on everyone's faces.

Then he looked back at Snow with a look that devastated Snow.

David: If that is how you feel Snow, then we can no longer be together.

I for one am very happy for Regina and Emma.

Regina had worked hard for redemption, and you are just too selfish to see it!

I can't and won't be with someone who thinks that no one can be redeemed.

Then walked out the door without another word.

Snow then heard Regina speak in a voice she never thought she would hear again. Her Evil Queen Voice .

Regina: You need to leave now Snow White.

Pushing her Out of the house and don't come back. Now that I know where we stand.

I will not leave you in charge of this town thinking this way.

I think Maleficent is a better choice then you.

Then closed the door behind her.

She was glad she made the kids go back upstairs even though she knew they heard everything.

Emma and Regina sat in silence for about 10 minutes before anything was said.

Finally, the silence was broken by Emma.

Emma: You know Regina, I'm not going anywhere.

Snow just dug her own grave when it comes to me.

And apparently David too since he's not too happy with her either.

As I said before my parents got here,my place is and always will be by your side.

Regina: Even if I want to return to my Evil Queen days at the moment?

Emma just smiled.

Emma: Yes, even if you return to your Evil Queen days. I'll just be your Dark Swan.

But you won't.

Regina: How do you know I won't?

Emma: Two reasons, Henry and Harry.

Regina sighed as she thought of what Emma said.

Regina: True, Henry has been my rock.

Now that I have Harry back into my life, I feel almost complete but with you by my side I feel whole for first time ever.

I thought Danial was my true love, my one and only.

But then I met you through our son no less. She chuckles at this.

You changed my life Emma for the better by giving me Henry, and you Miss Swan although a pain in my but at times.

Emma Hey!

As she playfully slapped Regina's arm.

Regina chuckles as she continued, I will never regret ever meeting you.

Emma smiled knowing how hard it is for Regina to be confessing everything she said.

Emma: The same can be said about you Regina.

Just know where you go, I go no matter what.

Regina: Thank you Emma.

Putting her forehead against Emma's smiling at the contact.

Emma: Okay enough with the mushy stuff.

Let's get the kids down here and eat.

That lasagna you made is calling my name.

Regina just laughs as she thought,

I swear I have four children in this house instead of Three.

And Emma, If I ever become evil again, I have a feeling I would have you all at my side. It's something I can't explain. I just know it would happen.

Emma: Well, let's just hope it doesn't happen then.

Regina: I'm Sure it won't.

Hearing the kids come down the stairs as she walked into the dining room feeling for the time despite what happened with Snow White, she was happy, and nothing can't take that away.
