Trina finished unpacking all their things and both her and her daughter went downstairs. They headed through the house and into the living room where they found Regina.

"So, now that I'm back I'm gonna need to know who to avoid." Trina said as she sat down next to her sister.

"What do you remember?" Regina asked. Trina told her sister what she remembered and Regina filled her in on recent events.

"God Ree, That sounds awful." Trina said.

"Well—" Regina was cut off from speaking when a loud pattern of banging started on her door. The sisters looked at each other then towards the sound. Regina got up and walked through the house to open the door.

Once Regina opened the door she was pushed back. Marching into the house came the whole Charming family troop. They all had varying degrees of detestation written on their faces.

Regina brushed herself off and closed the door behind them. She followed after them angrily as they made their way to her living room.

"Can I help you? What are you doing here?"

They all turned to look at her, Emma stepped toward her, "You are lucky I'm not mad about you being out and in town right now."

"Oh really? I'm lucky that you aren't mad? I think you need to remember just who you are talking to and whose house you are in right now."

Regina had been longing for a fight since after the day the curse broke. Ever since the mob, no one had the balls to step foot near the mansion.

"Woah woah woah, everyone take a deep breath. Nothing needs to get out of hand. And certainly no one needs to start throwing fire balls, Ree." Regina immediately deflated and backed down.

"Fine. Now what do you want?" Regina asked impatiently.

"We just wanted to find out more about her." Emma said.

"First, her name is Trina, and she's my sister."

"I don't remember you having a sister. Was she there in the palace?" Snow asked in annoying naïveté.

"How about you ask me yourself." Trina said. Annoyed that they were basically ignoring the fact that she was standing in the room.

"Well, were you?" Snow asked.

"Of course I was."

Regina let out a groan and went to her study. If she was going to have to put up with the Charming's presence then she was going to need a drink.

While Regina was doing this Trina was trying to talk with their "guests".

"How come you just arrived to Storybrooke?" Emma asked.

"I came back due to a need for change. That's all I am going to say for now about that."

Trina lead them to the living room and then took her seat on the couch. Regina came back into the room with a glass in one hand and her cider in the other and sat down next to her sister.

"So what do you want to know?" Trina asked

"How come I don't remember you, from before the curse?" Snow asked

Trina and Regina took a second to look at each other. After a moment passed they turned back to look at Snow.

"We were never really ever in the same room, in public anyway." Trina responded.

Snow accepted that answer and moved on. Charming didn't seem to have any questions, mostly there out of moral support for Snow. Emma seemed to hold the most anger out of everyone.

"So you just show up in town after so much time and you expect us to believe you have no ill intentions."

"I have no ill intentions, unless someone decides to come for me and my family."

"I find it hard to believe that you are peaceful with who your sister is."

"What are you trying to say?"

"I'm saying that your sister is an evil witch , who's to say you aren't one too?"

Trina's eyes flashed a bright aqua blue and she stood up. Regina sat her glass down making her self ready if she needed to stand.

"How dare you! You know nothing! You and your self-absorbed parents don't know anything. You know nothing about my sister and nothing about me. I think it's time you take your leave."

By the time Trina had finished speaking the front had blown open and Trina's eyes had lost their brown color and turned completely aqua. The lights in the room had started flashing and the temperature had dropped.

Henry had jumped up from behind the Charmings. He had been watching everything silently. "You're just as evil as her!"

Trina's eyes cooled down to their natural brown color. She felt slightly guilty and ashamed for how she made herself look.

Henry stormed out of the mansion with Snow and Charming following. "I think this proves exactly the type of people you two are." Emma said before walking out.

Silence crept inside of the mansion. Trina sighed turning to look at her sister, "Ree…I'm sorry. I shouldn't have—"

"D-Don't worry about it. I'll be in my study." Regina walked away leaving her sister

Regina spent the rest of the day in her study alone. She was used to feeling alone though. Since she was a little girl she had always struggled with her thoughts of loneliness.

Besides her sister and their father, Regina felt alone. As a child her and Trina weren't allowed friends. They spent most of the time in lessons to learn how to be a proper Princess.

In the odd moment that they weren't in lessons they were in the castle library reading about how to act like a proper lady. Those lessons have stuck with them.

Regina grabbed her tumbler of cider and refilled her glass. She had been drinking for the past hour and the effects of said hour were starting to get to her.

She quickly downed her glass and tried to stand up from her chair. Her legs gave out and she landed poorly causing a loud thud.

Trina who was in the kitchen gathering ingredients for dinner rushed into the room.

The door slammed into the wall as Trina approached her sister.

"Ree, what happened?" Trina crouched by her sister.

"I'm tired Trina... I'm tired of fighting every day I wake up with people I wronged. I know what I did was terrible but how can I explain. To them it won't matter, and even if it did, I don't want their pity."

"Regina, you did what needed to be done for our safety. Mother was an abusive bitch and as much as I loved dad he didn't really do anything to stop her. I know what went down with the king and Rumple is a master manipulator. What happened to us was not your fault and you did everything you could to protect us."

"Help me to bed?"

Trina sighed. Her and her sister may have grown up in the same situation but they turned out completely different. They both coped with their traumas differently.

Trina wrapped her arm around Regina's waist and helped her up. Trina lead her out of the room and up the stairs carefully. She helped her sister into her room and into her bed.

Regina sat on her bed. She grabbed Trina's hand, "Thank you."

Trina smiled at her before leaning down and kissing her sister's temple. "You don't ever have to thank me." She left the room and closed the door.

"Wakey Wakey, Eggs and Bakey!" Trina shouted as she entered her sisters room with a tray of breakfast foods in her hands.

Regina sat up quickly, startled awake by her sisters shouting. Brushing her hair out of her face Regina asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm ready to explore the town and I know just the perfect tour guide. She happens to be my sister so I need you to eat your breakfast and we'll go out."

"I don't really want to go out. I also have a pretty bad hangover so thanks for waking me like that."

"Ree, eat this damn breakfast, then get your sexy ass out of bed and into the shower. You are taking me and Venus out on stroll through town." Trina stormed over to her sister and plopped the tray onto the woman's lap and then walked out.
