The next day, Vivian walked with her mother and brother to Granny's where the citizens of The Land of Untold Stories were stood to get shelter. The three of them haven't discussed what happened last night with Hook or what Vivian said, as she wouldn't address the matters again.

"Okay, mom, sis, are you ready for this?" Henry asked them.

"Why am I involved again?" Vivian asked.

"Eldest child of the mayor," Henry said.

"Right, lucky me," Vivian said.

Regina sighed, "Yeah, ready. Everyone listened to me before because I was the Evil Queen. Now, I'm going to show them that I'm just as strong without her," Regina said.

"Remember what we're calling it... Operation Cobra: Part Two," Henry said and handed Regina the storybook.

"Part two?" Regina asked.

"Yeah. This time, you're the hero," Henry said and Regina smiled.

"Well then, shall we go?" Vivian said.

"First, we want to talk to you," Regina stood in front of Vivian, "You're leaving, when were you gonna tell me?" Regin asked.

"I made the decision last night, can we just drop it?" Vivian asked.

"No, we can't just drop it," Regina said.

"But you have other matters to attend to than your daughter," Vivian said.

"Mom, she's right..." Henry said.

"Thanks, kid," Vivian said.

"Which is why I'm gonna get it out of you as we work," Henry said and Vivian sighed.

Vivian, Regina and Henry walked into the diner, "Your Majesty, it's about time. The rabble are getting restless," Hook said to them, he looked at Vivian.

Vivian didn't look at him, "Come on, mom," Vivian said and the two of them walked over to the counter.

Regina cleared her throat as she dropped the storybook onto the counter, the people in the diner turned to them, "As mayor, I would like to officially welcome you to Storybrooke," Regina picked the book back up, "You fled to the Land of Untold Stories because you were afraid that whatever was in this book is going to play out but, now that you're here, I'm sure you're scared it will. But what you don't realise is... I'm just like you. I'm also getting a fresh start, my daughter is as well," Regina glanced at Vivian who smiled a little, "And we both, don't know what the future holds of us either, but we do know one thing," She turned to the others, "We don't have to be afraid of anything, because whatever comes next, we're going to face it...Together," Regina said and the people began to applaud then talk among themselves.

The diner's doors opened and Belle walked in, "Hey, does... Does anyone know..." Belle began.

"Belle," Vivian said and rushed over, hugging her, "I've missed you," She said.

"Vivian, you're alive!" Belle hugged her back and tears fell, "Since when?"

"Err... Hades," Vivian smiled at her, "You're awake," Vivian looked at her, "And I hear congratulations are in order."

"Thanks," Belle smiled and chuckled then they hugged again.

"Hey, Belle, you're awake," Emma said walking up behind Vivian.

"Yeah and I need a place to stay," Belle said to them.

"What about the Crocodile," Hook asked.

Vivian tensed up and rolled her eyes, Belle noticed and held Vivian's hand, "We're uh... We're not together at the moment. So, I thought maybe Granny would have a room," Belle said.
