{Robin's POV}
Robin's heart was racing as though it never had before. "No, no, no," he stopped compressions and picked up her head touching his forehead to hers. "Come back to me baby, please, please, PLEASE ." His voice cracked and his vision was blurred as the hot tears trickled down his cheeks. His brain couldn't quite comprehend what was going on at the time. The high pitched ringing he heard in his head must have been the state of shock kicking in, or her heart monitor in the background. He heard the door open as multiple doctors pushed Emma, who was petrified in place, out of the way. A couple of them had grabbed Robin by the shoulders and heaved him out of the way. His fingers lost the grasp of hers. "No!" He struggled to get back to Regina, but two male nurses shoved him out of the room.

"Sir, I'm sorry... I promise you really don't want to see this." They closed the door as they were getting the defibrillator ready to use on her. He turned to go stand by Emma, who had been kicked out of the room before himself. David ran around the corner with Hook on his tail.

"What's going on? I saw them run this way with a defibrillator and got worried. It's not what I think it is.. is it?" David asked out of breath. Robin went to answer, but found himself unable to speak.

"It's Regina." Emma said softly. "She flatlined." The rest was a blur to Robin. He didn't care about David or Hook knowing what had happened. He didn't care. All he cared about, could possibly not survive, and he hadn't even got the chance to tell her just how much she meant to him. He wanted to eventually marry her, have kids with her, grow old with her... die WITH her. It was all falling apart within the blink of an eye. After a while, the doctors had all rolled themselves out of the room. Whale walked up to Robin and stopped.

"I'm so-" he choked on his words placing a hand on Robin's shoulder. "We tried everything we possibly could. The circumstances were, however, extreme. I'm so sorry, Robin." Whale looked as if he was gonna cry. Robin stood petrified for a minute before slowly sinking to his knees. "I'll give you time to say goodbye." Whale sulked away, defeated and broken.

"No... Regina!" Emma screamed before joining Robbin on the floor. David pulled Robin to his feet as Hook did with Emma. Robin let go of David's arm and slowly hobbled into her room. Another tear crept from his eye, and his hand covered over his mouth as he witnessed her lifeless body before him.

"Oh God," he said covering his mouth and walking towards her gray toned body. "Gina?" He asked intertwining her somewhat cold hands with his own. She didn't move. Regina was dead.
