Thanks for the follows, favourites and reviews. Sorry it took a bit to update.

David holds his phone to his ear listening to the ringing, when he is greeted by Regina's answering machine he states "Regina don't do this. It's to dangerous. We will find another way."

Mary Margaret nervously wrings her hands together "Answering machine again?"

David nods "Yeah," putting on his coat he heads to the exit "I am done talking to the answering machine. Regina has to be in her vault, I am going to stop her."

Mary Margaret follows "I am going with you. Another voice of reason may help get through to her."

Henry assures "It's going to work. True Love can beat anything. I believe, you should too."

David shakes his head "I wish I could Henry but this is just too dangerous to allow. We will find another way."

The three walk out with Henry defiantly stating his point as they move.

Regina looks around the empty white room with screens scattered about, It's just as the Evil Queen said.

A voice sounds in Regina's head Could we drop the E word already? I told you what the room looked like already. Stop taking everything in and find Emma.

Regina growls quietly "Shut up. You've given me bad information before."

The Queen retorts Not when it involved Emma. I was right about all of that. We wouldn't be in this mess right now if you had listened to me all those years ago, but no you had to let the walking plague sink his hook into her. Who knows what kind of diseases he's given Emma in the time they were together.

The thought of Hook and Emma that intimate causes Regina to shutter violently and gag, Gross.

Regina once again scans the empty room Are you sure this is where Emma is? There's nobody here.

The Queen snarls I can see that. Yes Emma is here. When has finding your happiness ever been easy Regina? You're going to have to work for this. Try calling out to her you idiot.

Regina does as she is told "Emma. Where are you dear?"

The Queen spits Dear? Really? You call everybody dear. Try calling out for Miss Swan. You'd be likely to see a swirl of golden hair stalking towards you to yell at you. You used Miss Swan talking to the lifeless form of her hoping it would get to Emma here, now that you are here you call for Emma. You use Miss Swan when you're angry or desperate for some kind of response from her and using her name isn't working. Now is the time to get desperate for her attention, don't you think?

Regina is about to call out for Emma again when someone appears "Excuse me can you help me find my husband? We were driving home in a torrential rain fall and the next thing I know there's this bright light a flash of searing pain and then I am here. I heard his voice just before you got here. Please I need to find him."

Regina looks at her "Where did you come from? How do I get there? Did you see a woman with blonde hair just past her shoulders, about my height, most likely in a red leather jacket? Her name is Emma."

The person frowns looking around "I came from just over there. You're the first person I've come across. Please help me."

The Queen bites We don't have time for this Regina. We need to find Emma. Walk away.

Regina attempts to step past the person but they grab her arm "Please. You have to help me."

Regina yanks her arm away "I can't I have to find Emma. I'm sorry."

The person grabs her again "Please. If you help me find my husband, I will help you find your friend."

Regina shakes her head repeating "I can't. Good luck finding your husband."

When Regina turns away from the woman she sees the room filled with people, Where did all these people come from? Regina pushes her way through the crowd every time she feels like she is getting close to the edge the crowd seems to get larger and she is in the middle again.

Regina can feel her anger building "Get out of my way I need to find my wife."

Suddenly the person that had requested her help to find their husband reappears "Wife? You didn't say she was your wife before."

Regina pushes past more people "She might as well be. We raise a child together, argue like a married couple, care for each other like a married couple, believe in each other like no one else has and are stronger together then we are apart. She makes me a better person. I can't imagine my life without her."

The Queen informs You're going to have to if you don't get rid of these people. Use your magic and toss them aside. Time is running out Regina the potion isn't going to last much longer.

Regina starts to sway from all the voices and the crowd around her a strange voice asking "Are you alright?"

The Queen bites Perfect. Pass out like the weakling you are. That will give us even less time to find Emma.

Regina puts her hands over her ears "SHUT UP."

Before her eyes close she sees a flash of red leather, Emma.

Regina pushes herself off the ground her face hardening into a scowl as she follows the red leather jacket, the Queen had now taken over, calling out "Miss Swan."

The noise of the crowd prevents the blond from hearing her name. When Regina gets close enough she reaches out for Emma only for her to disappear. Regina growls looking around not seeing her blond anywhere.

Regina calls out "Miss Swan this is not funny anymore. Where are you? It's not your time. Let's go home."

One of the crowd questions "Who are you to decide if it is her time or not?"

Regina stands toe to toe with the speaker "Your worst nightmare if you don't get out of my way. Mark my word I will destroy you, and anyone else who tries to stop me, if it is the last thing I do."

The person steps back a little causing a wicked smile to spread across Regina's lips "That's what I thought."

From behind her Regina hears "Sister you have no idea what I am capable of."

Regina whispers "Changing me, making me believe I can have love again and giving me my happy ending," raising her voice to her regular tone Regina states simply "I just need to find you first," raising her voice to a shout Regina antagonizes "Miss Swan I know you are here."

Regina is pushed hard from behind "Don't call me that. After everything we've been through I have earned you calling me by my name."

Regina rubs her shoulder, this was not Emma. No matter how much Regina did to Emma she was never violent with her. This place did not want to let Emma go and they were messing with Regina to ensure she didn't succeed.

Regina bites "Start acting like Emma and I won't have to call you Miss Swan. Where are you?"

One of the people in the crowd asks "When has anything in your life been that easy?"

Another one states "You're going to have to work harder then that or you'll never find her."

Emma's voice hits her ears "I don't believe that, I believe in you Regina."

One of the crowd snorts "Like that's going to be enough. You've walked away from less. Go home and forget her."

Regina shakes her head "I am not going anywhere without my Saviour."

Throwing her arms out the crowd of people go flying backwards away from her. As Regina takes deep breaths trying to calm herself down her eyes land on Emma on her knees staring down at a screen tears flowing down her cheeks.

Both the Queen and Regina breathe a sigh of relief "Finally."

Tentatively walking up to Emma Regina is flabbergasted by the younger woman's appearance. This is not the strong, argumentative, bold person she had come to love. This was a small, broken, shell of her Emma.

Regina can feel her heart shatter in her chest "Emma."

The woman doesn't look up, Emma's eyes glued to the screen on the floor. Regina circles around looking at the images on the screen. Watching the screen Regina feels the pieces of her already shattered heart break even more.

A young Emma, maybe three, stands feet from an opened door clutching a tan teddy bear watching a tall man with brown hair walk away.

Emma begs "Please I'll be good. Don't leave. I'll be good. I promise. I'm sorry. I'll be good."

The man stops at the door not turning around "I love you Emma. This is what's best for you."

The man leaves closing the door behind him.

A woman with sandy blond hair puts her hand on Emma's shoulder "It will be okay Emma."

Emma looks up at the woman "I want to go home."

The woman wipes some tears away only to see them get immediately replaced "This is your home now Emma."

Emma looks around at the white walls with oak baseboards repeating "I want to go home."

The image changes to another vision of Emma not much older then the first flashback the same tan teddy bear resting on a pillow.

A boy, slightly younger then Emma, with dirty blonde hair, pokes his head into the room before creeping in and reaching for the bear.

Emma walks in grabbing the bear before he could "What are you doing? Get out of my room."

The boy looks up at her scurrying from the room.

Emma is sitting on her bed when a taller boy, about twelve years old, with the same dirty blonde hair as the little boy from before, storms into the room with the boy trailing behind.

Walking up to Emma he rips the bear from her arms "This is my brother's now."

Emma jumps off the bed "Give it back."

A man with dark brown hair walks in "What's going on in here?"

Emma points to the bear "That's mine."

The man looks at it recognizing it as something Emma came in with and taking it from the younger boy "You know not to take things that are not yours. Boys go and help Lucy with the gardening."

The two boys groan leaving the room.

The next day the same older boy comes in with another one his age "You got me in trouble twirp. Make another peep and I will make your life a living hell."

Grabbing the bear he wiggles it in Emma's face "Say good bye to this. Don't worry Andy will give it a nice new home."

Emma goes for the bear only to be pushed down by the other boy. Emma jumps up punching the boy that pushed her and tackling the boy that took her bear, the bear flying out of his hand and onto the floor in front of her closet.

A woman with auburn hair rushes in "Hey stop that. Get off of him. What started this?"

The boy points to Emma "She took Andy's bear I was just trying to get it back for him when she attacked me."

Emma shrieks "It's my bear they were trying to take it."

The woman picks up the bear calling out "Andy come here."

The little boy comes in "Yes mom."

The woman holds out the bear "Is this your bear?"

The boy's eyes light up "Yes."

Emma squeals "It is not. He's lying. That's my bear."

The woman hands Andy the bear "Emma it's not nice to lie. I want you to stay in here until supper to think about what you've done."

The older boy smirks while Andy walks away after sticking out his tongue.

A knock on the door comes with Emma's social worker opening the door "Hi."

Emma stands up grabbing her bag "They're sending me back aren't they?"

The woman nods "They are. Fighting isn't good Emma."

Emma starts packing her things "He pushed me first."

The social worker looks around "Where's your bear?"

Emma sighs "One of the boys took it."

At the door the man hands Emma the bear back "I believe this is yours. I am sorry Emma."

Emma takes it back "Thank you."

The boy she had tackled comments "Good riddance. You didn't belong here anyways."

The man scolds "Shush Austin. You didn't even give her a chance."

Austin grumbles "Did too."

Emma slides in the back seat slumping down and hugging her bear.

Regina watches as a young Emma is in and out of home after home that bear never leaving her side.

Finally the scene comes to Emma in a store looking up and down the aisle before shoving a box of Pop Tarts under her coat. A woman with blonde hair approaches Emma about to call her out for steeling.

A girl with dark hair and a natural tan with a cart stops at the end of the aisle "There you are. I got a cart."

Emma looks flustered for a minute before tentatively putting the Pop Tarts in the cart the exchange between the guard and the dark haired girl going unheard. The two buy things with a credit card then run from a SUV following them ending up in a cabin across from water. This is the happiest Emma is compared to the other flash backs. After making a brief recording, Regina remembering seeing it before finding the Snow Queen knew Emma before, the two share a kiss which becomes kissing. Regina growls lowly possessively putting her arm around the adult Emma's waist. The jealousy evaporates when a man with white hair comes in asserting himself as the dark haired girls father, thus crushing Emma leading her to walk away with tears in her eyes.

The next few flashes are the families finding out Emma's interest in females and kicking her out of their house.

Another shot shows the reappearance of the dark haired girl who gets Emma out of the house before stealing from the family Emma is currently in. This results in Emma running away and returning to the group home.

A series of Emma watching child after child leave the group home their spots being filled and the new ones leave before Emma flash over the screen.

The series ends with Emma sneaking out of the home and running away, eventually meeting Neal when she steals his car.

Regina wipes some tears on Emma's cheek hearing the Queen's voice, As enlightening as this is we are running out of time.

Regina softly hums "Emma, dear, we have to go."

When Emma doesn't look away the Queen growls You need to be firmer or you'll lose her.

Regina reluctantly bites "Miss Swan."

Angry green eyes snap to meet dark chocolate eyes making both Regina and the Queen flinch, the anger fades as Emma registers "Regina."

Looking around Emma asks "Where are we?"

Regina answers "Limbo, it's where they decide where you go next. You're coming back with me though."

Emma whispers "How?"

Regina straddles Emma's lap "With the only thing powerful enough to defeat anything. I am not raising another one of your children alone."

Emma's face lights up as she opens her mouth to speak Regina kisses her softly.

Regina opens her eyes finding herself back in her vault.

Looking towards Emma she slides off the slab she is on standing beside Emma running her hand through Emma's hair she whispers "I love you" kissing her again.

Regina turns to the entrance as a loud banging at the entrance fills the room before David calls out "Regina don..."

The rest of the words go unregistered when an "I love you too" hits Regina's ears.

Regina's breath hitches as a combination of elation and dread fill her. Regina rarely, never, got what she wanted so she doubted what she heard. Regina takes a breath holding it as she turns pleading with whoever would listen that her eyes would meet Emma's.

The sound of quick footsteps behind her cause Regina to groan "I can never get a moment of peace."

Regina's eyes finally land on Emma's face as she releases the breath she had been holding in her body crumbling at the sight in front of her.
