Regina Mills has wanted nothing more than a happy ending. Being with Daniel, killing Snow White, and most recently, Robin Hood. Daniel is dead, the Snow White thing didn't exactly pan out, and now Robin Hood has been killed. Hope is a powerful thing, and Regina can't seem to keep it for long. Evie's life has been in a near-constant state of turmoil for about 2 years, ever since she and her friends had moved to Auradon. Then Mal turned her mom into a lizard, Mal ran away to the Isle, Ben was kidnapped, they all fought Uma's pirate crew to get Ben back, Uma attacked Cotillion, Hades almost escaped, Audrey went crazy-evil, Mal lied about a bunch of stuff, and then basically took all the credit for all the work Uma, Ben, and Evie had been doing to integrate the Isle into Auradon. Evie was still bitter about that. Oh, and Mal and Ben got engaged. And Evie had started dating Doug. Uma and Evie also became official ambassadors to the Isle. Then, Mal and Ben got married, Evie broke up with Doug, and Uma, Jay, Gil, and the whole pirate crew went sailing around the world for a few months. During that time, Mal and Ben got divorced and Mal left Auradon. The pirate crew is finally back, but Evie can barely appreciate having her friends at home. All in all, Evie feels like her entire life has been turned upside down, and now someone is shaking it violently, trying to make her fall off. But hope is a powerful thing... And who knew that Evie's and Regina's unlikely sources of hope would bring them together, and reveal an old, festering lie. Well... 6 lies. Lies that have caused so much pain and suffering over the years, it's long past time for them to finally be brought into the light.

"Oh sorry ladies first," Hades said with delight. He raised the crystal, the menacing blue light encasing the room. Regina could feel arms go around her, but at the same time not. She didn't know what was going to happen. She expected to feel pain, maybe herself dissipating, but it never happened.
"No!" Hades exclaimed in defeat. The crystal hung limply by his side as he gazed at the couple laying on the floor in a heap. They both got up off the floor slowly, instantly grabbing on to each other. "Robin are you alright?" Regina asked as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Yes Regina, perfectly fine," Robin said with that soft smile of his. He cupped her cheek smiling softly, looking into her eyes, completely ignoring the god on the other side of the room who was staring at the crystal in utter defeat.
"No...no, you...you are supposed to be dead."
--------------------------
Regina searched high and low for happiness all her life and right when she was about to find it. Poof . . . Hades comes and threatens to strip it all away from her in the blink of an eye. What do you think would happen if Robin survived? Would things really be happily ever after?
