Merlin (Once upon a time fanfic)

part fourteen

Annie followed Regina into the kitchen.

" Darling is everything Alright? " Regina inquired

" Yes why dO you ASK? " Annie knew exactly why Regina was asking but tried her best to avoid this conversation.

" Annie you can talk to me about anything, I can't even begin to understand how hard this is for you but, me Robin, Snow, Emma everybody is here for you. You are loved." Regina stared into the eyes of the child she thought she had lost.

" There's a storm coming soon." Annie turned away from Regina.
" What do you Mean? " it was common knowledge that Annie was the seer of all but Regina found it hard to believe that she could predict the weather.

" I saw Killian's face when I was talking about Harrington, I know harry has two brother, Killian being one of them, but I can feel it Regina something powerful is going to happen" Regina did not know how to respond, her feelings tore as Annie called her by her name not mom.

" You are the most powerful being there is. Me, Emma and gold also have the use of magic. You have nothing to worry about." Annie smiled trying to eave the conversation there.

Regina walked around the overly large kitchen collecting items needed for lasagne. She began preparing dinner when Annie asked a question she was not prepared for.

"Regina... err." Annie stumbled.

" You can called me." Regina laughed

"You adopted Henry and Robin has Roland and has a child on the way with Zelena, how come you and Robin don't have a child Together? " Annie was walking in dangerous ground.

" I...I can't have children. After the heart ached that giving you up caused I drank I potion that made it impossible for me to have children, so when I came to storybrook I adopted Henry. And Roland's mother died, as for Robin and Zelena how do you know about that ?" Regina's voice turned harsh.

" I know Zelena she was always riddles with her passed but I never thought she would do what she did, I should have took her power when I had the chance. And you I am sorry but this may sting a little. " before Regina could respond Andromida placed her finger tips on Regina's stomach and began to slowly pull away from her and a red fog followed. Pain filled Regina's body and she felt like part of her soul was begin ripped out.

It had stopped and Regina could see Annie's fist slowly close around the red fog turning it to dust.

" What did you do?" Clutching her stomach Regina tried to catch her breath.

" I'm sure you will find out soon enough." Annie looked at all the objects that Regina had gotten out for dinner and with out a word they began to move and fall into the dish in the correct places and then into the oven. Regina looked at Annie in amazement

"You didn't even move your hands, how do you do That? " envy is the only word to describe what Regina felt.

Annie just smirked and left the room to inform the boys that dinner was ready. Regina just played with the food on her plate still feeling the pain that Annie had caused.

Annie made light work of the dishes whilst Robin and Regina put Roland to bed.

They left Roland's room and went into their own. It was still messy from this afternoons activities. Regina began to undress well aware that Robins eyes watched her every move. He crept up behind her

"I do believe that if your very quiet we could have a repeat of this afternoon. "

" If I'm Quiet? "

"Well your quite the screamer, madame mayor. " He said between kisses.

Regina could not resist Robins forest smell. He pushed her to the bed and repeat what he had done earlier.

It was not yet dawn yet Regina was awakened by the buzzing noise that was her phone.

"Hello" her voice croaked.

" Regina I'm at the docks get down here now you need to see this. " a startled emma hung up the phone leaving Regina fulled of panic. She quickly got dressed trying not to wake Robin.

Regina could hear footsteps coming from the hallway downstairs. Annie paced the room.

" Why are you Awake? " Regina tried to sound authoritive but knew Annie did not see her as a mother.

" It's happening Regina" before Annie had finished Regina wisked them away to the docks where David, Emma and Killian stood staring at the darkening swirling waters.

" What's happening? "

"We don't no it just started." David responded

"This was pulled out of the water before the whirlpool began. " David handed Regina a plank of wood with the letters, Antiq on it it was clear that the rest of the word had been broken off.

Annie's heart start to race she knew where this was from, she knew what was about to happen.

"There in the water..."before Emma could finish Annie dived into the water swimming against the current, she knew that if she could reach him her magic could take them back to shore.

" ANNIE!" David held Regina back from jumping in after her daughter, the next few moments felt like a life time.

A cloud of smoke appeared. It slowly disappeared leave Annie clutching a barely breathing body. Annie placed her hands on his chest and closed her eyes and with in a few seconds he took a a deep breath in and opened his eyes.

" Andromida? "
