"Don't follow me. Whatever world you think you're from, go back there." Regina says as we follow her through the woods.

"We can't. Not until you find true love." Henry says. I stumbled over a couple sticks.

"Than you're stuck. That's never gonna happen for me." She laughs.

"His name is Robin Hood and I think the only way for us to escape this book is for you to find him in a tavern and kiss him. True love's kiss, it can fix anything." Henry explained.

    "Wow." Regina turns around laughing. "You are crazy. If I ever meet Robin Hood in person, the only thing he gets is a broken nose." She turns around and walks.

    "Wait! What are you talking about?" Henry asks confused.

    "He's my competition. Every robbery I plan, he beats me to it. He's the reason I'm stuck in the kingdom. Why am I still talking to you?"

    "Because I'm your son." Henry tells her.

She turns around with a caring look. "Look, kid, if you read about me in that book, you know I got to go. Queen wants me dead. She thinks I ruined her life."

    "Did you?" I ask.

    "Yes. So, if it's happy endings you're after, look someplace else." Regina walks off.

Henry and I walk to a town where we find Regina standing in a stone paved alley.

    "Mom!" Henry walks over to her.

   "You have to stop calling me that. How do you keep finding me, anyway?" She says.

    "I figured, if my and (Y/n's) plan worked, you'd be in Sherwood Forest with Robin Hood..."

    "I hate to break it to you but Robin's already found his true love. And they're getting married today!" Regina turns Henry around and shows him the window, I go and stand beside him.
We see Zelena and Robin kissing.

    "No, no, no. This is all wrong. That's Zelena, your sister..." Henry runs after Regina. "Wait, you have to listen to us."

    "I heard enough. I don't have a sister. My Mother abandoned me when I was a baby." Regina try's to walk away but Henry stands in front of her.

    "No, your Mother abandoned Zelena! Everything's flipped. This must be Zelena's happy ending." Henry blocks Regina.

    "Look, I have to go. And you and your girlfriend should, too. Snow White's looking for you both."

    "Girlfriend? I would rather die." I say honestly.

    "Wait! You can't tell me anything that you didn't feel anything when you met Robin Hood. See? That's proof. He's your true love." Henry insisted.

    "No. It's proof I'm not the kind of person that gets a happy ending. I'll never have true love. But you both gave me the worst thing you can give anyone. Hope. Now I'd like to get far enough away that I don't have to hear Robin and Zelena's wedding bells proclaiming their love."

    "Wait did you say wedding bells?" I say.

    "Yes. Now, please, let me be." Regina asks.

   "The bells. From the end of the book. That's what he was talking about. Those bells, this wedding, it's our last chance to stop this from becoming real forever!" Henry pieces together.

    "It already is real." Regina says.

    "Not yet!" Henry tells her.

    "We have to stop the wedding!" I add from the side.
