When You Remember

Chapter 24- Regina

I sit with a blanket wrapped around me, staring at the bustle of everyone in the Sheriffs office. People were running around grabbing things, making plans, yelling at others, and everyone just sort of did something that didn't really help the matter.

"Are you alright?" Robin asks bringing me a tea.

"Other then my daughter being kidnapped by the person terrorizing the town, in fine" I say taking the tea from Robin.

"I feel like this is all my fault" Robin says sitting besides me.

"None of its your fault" I smile at him, rubbing his back.

"No it is all my fault Regina" he says standing up. "If I hadn't come and asked if you wanted to go for a walk, you would of never turned Kayla down. You would of never gotten into that fight and Kayla would be with us right now."

Robin seemed to be taking it more on himself then I thought he would. He seemed worried for her and not just a friendly way, but a more family way.

"Robin you always talk about how I need to remember you, how I knew you before. I've never really understood that, any of it, but right now you look more panicked then me and you've only known Kayla for around 2 months. What are you not telling me about our past?" I ask quite curious. If Robin knows anything that might help me find my daughter from the past, I am willing to learn.

"Regina I don't think it's the right time" Robin says running a hand through his hair.

"No Robin. I want to know, what are you not telling me?"

"I'm not the best one to explain" he says.

"Then who is?" I ask a little irritated.

He turns and looks as Emma as she directs people through the office. I stare at her and notice the slight bag under her eye, the constant shake of her hand or the way small wrinkles starts to show at the edge of her eyes. I grey streak was going through her hair and she looked significantly, older.

"Emma" Robin says knocking me back to reality.

I turn to him from my spot on the chair and stare. "What does Emma have to do with any of this?"

"I was gone when it happened. She did it, you wanted her too" he sighs.

"Robin I am getting very irritated right now. What did I want Emma to do, and what do you mean you were gone?" I ask very irritated now.

"Is everything alright?" Emma asks coming up to us.

"I don't know, is everything alright?" I ask staring at Robin.

"Regina wants to know what happened, why she can't remember, anything" Robin says shaking.

Emma states at him but then averts her eyes to me. She stares at me a little shocked but then grabs a chair and sits down in front of me.

"14 years ago your sister, Zelena, came to town. But before there was the missing year" Emma says.

"Yes I know about the missing year, I remember the missing year" I say slightly annoyed.

"Yes but when we came back, she brought Robin and his son. We defeated Zelena but right after, the Snow Queen came. You remember her, you remember defeating her, but Robin was there the whole time. Your memories have been tweaked to fit the time of Robin not being there" Emma says.

"I'm sorry but I'm very confused" I say quite honestly.

"When Killian and I went back in time, we brought back Marian, Robin's wife because you were going to kill her. In the time Zelena was here, you and Robin fell in love. But when we came back with Marian, everything changed. The Snow Queen froze Marian's heart and the only way to save her was to send her into a place with no magic, she went over the town line. But we couldn't send her alone, so, Robin went with her" Emma says staring into my eyes. "Full of grief when he left, you made me take away all memory of Robin Hood and store it in a stone, the same way the Snow Queen kept Elsa's memories and mine."
