Outlaw Queen: Forgetting Our Ending

The Book-25-Final Chapter

Everyone went to granny's of course. Not knowing where else to go. Where else were they supposed to go. Regina clung to Henry for dear life, Robin walking close by. Emma and Hook held hands, the same for the Charmings. Rumple and Belle just walked along side each other, neither knowing what to say. They all knew their lives wouldn't be changed that much, only Reginas. The only thing keeping everyone from speaking was the fact they all knew they were going to forget who they were, again. Granny placed lasagne around the table along with grilled cheeses. Everyone sat for what seemed like hours picking at the food, talking about small little random memories.
"Hey, do you guys remember tacos?" Henry turned to his grandparents, as they both went a bright shade of red.
"Wha-no? I eh, let's move to another subject. What about that time Emma and Hook came and changed our pasts." Snow quickly, yet unsmoothly, avoided the question.
"Ha, that was stressful. But fun."
"You want stress? Try having to run a kingdom whilst hating your step-daughter and having an annoying as hell mother trying to help. No offence. I like you now." Regina looked at Snow who just held her hands up and nodded with a smile.
"Oh don't worry, I knew I'd grow on you." She winked at the former queen.
"Don't get too cocky now." She spoke harsh but her tone and facial expressions were soft.
"Do you guys remember when Regina tried to kill me and instead almost killed our son?" Emma raised her brow at Regina who looked down.
"Haha that was actually so weird. That was before you all knew." Henry looked around and everyone smiled sadly.
Thoughts flooded everyone minds, in that moment no one spoke. No one had to. Everyone knew what was being thought. It was the one subject that everyone was avoiding.
"Remember when you had to choose between me and Kathryn? And you saw that damn windmill in Golds shop." Mary Margaret looked to David, who huffed.
"God, that was probably one of the most stressful times of my life."
"How do you think I felt? The town hated me."
"Some still do." Regina murmured, just loud enough for some people to hear and chuckle at. Robin nudged her.
"Oh I seem to remember a time when I tried to help you, and you got very, well, pissed off." He laughed at her, as her cheeks grew red.
"Well that's because I was the Evil Queen and you didn't address me properly." She smirked at him, both remembering the time happily.
"Do you remember when I caught you guys kissing? I didn't know who you were!" Henry laughed hard at the memory, both and Robin and Regina going very deep shades of red.
"Unfortunately I do remember that, quite well actually."
"What!" The table turned to look at Robin and Regina who both smiled embarrassed.
"We were very good at hiding it." She leaned over and kissed Robin as they both smiled.
"What about the time I went on my first date with Hook? You guys questioned me more than a game show host."
"To be fair he was a lot more reckless then."
"And I've never truly liked him either."
"I saved your life!" Hook pointed, making David shrug.
"You're still dating my daughter." Emma's face screwed slightly.
"I'm never going to get used to that." She bit down on a chip as Killian kissed her cheek.
"So how long until, you know?"
"Not long now probably, the cloud is growing a lot closer." Regina looked out the window to see green and purple clouds slowly rolling over houses and buildings.
"Want to head to the town line?" Henry looked to his mom as she smiled sadly.
"I think that's a great idea." She kissed his head and they all stood up.
"Let's get going then, Dearys. Let's get going."
Soon enough everyone arrived at the town line, the clouds slowly closing in on them.
"It so weird how it all started here and now it's going to end here." Emma said as they all looked over at Storybrooke.
"Shit!" Regina looked around everyone in panic.
"What's wrong?" Robin asked as her eyes widened and she looked at everyone with tears welling in her eyes.
"The book! That damn book isn't here! Henry where is it?" She yelled frantically.
"In my room." He said not sure why the book was so important.
"I'll be back." Regina ran off in the other direction, heading straight for her house.
"Wait! Regina wait!" Robin yelled after her but she never stopped, she never even looked back. She just kept going.
After sprinting round corners she finally made it back to her house. Her home. The place where so much has happened. The drama, the romances, the heartbreaks. Henry grew up here. Henry grew into a young man in this house. And now they had to leave.
Without thinking she kicked the door in and ran straight for Henry's room. As she picked up the book she looked out the window and saw the clock tower being engulfed in clouds and smoke.
"Crap, Crap, Crap!" She sprinted to the front door and attempted to magic herself back to the town line, but nothing was working. So once again she ran for the town line. The book that started it all clutched in her arms. As she ran and ran she began to run out of breath, she kept pushing until she slowed to a jog. She had to keep going. She had to get there before the magic did. As she reached the main road she ran ever faster as she saw everyone standing at the town line. All she asked was that her, Robin and Henry were together when the curse happened. All she wanted was to say goodbye to her little prince. All she needed was to tell them how much she loved them. She looked backwards and saw the smoke right behind her. There was no way she was going to make it, no way she would be there before it was.
By the time she turned back around it was too late to realise what was happening. She tripped over and landed flat on her stomach. The book flying out her arms and landing with a thud. She frantically looked around for the book, and when she saw it, it had landed right in front of the others. She went to get up but it was too late. Everyone was screaming her name, wishing she could get up. But she couldn't move. She just lay there watching tears flooding down her face as she was engulfed into the smoke, tingling and burning taking over her body. But before she fully disappeared she choked out her final words that no one could forget. They were simple, but so strong to everyone there.
"Please don't forget me...I'm sorry."
Robin, Henry and everyone else just watched as she disappeared. Not knowing what to say or do. Henry got the others to look down to the pages that where showing in front of them and stared at them with everyone else. They gripped each other's hands as they all stood in a line, awaiting their fate. He read the words allowed to everyone. Everyone listened and watched as the clouds came towards them. Engulfing them all, ripping away their memories.

"Once Upon A Time there was an Evil Queen..."

Well I guess that's it...
