She walked down the aisle, she strolled through the crowd as the citizens of her kingdom flinched away from her. She could feel the fear emanating from the crowd and she bathed in it. She took a deep breath and felt the hate invade her senses. Her black dress billowed behind her as she held the bloodied heart of her father in her hand, she smiled as she threw it into the fire and watched the purple smoke expand out. Her curse was finally complete.

Regina staggered along the floor of her living room, as she wiped her hand on her shirt. Blood, blood everywhere, staining her clothes, her face, and the floor. How one girl had managed to kill two grown adults, nobody knew, but at this moment, Regina was cutting out the heart of her father with a pocket knife all the while humming a cheerful song. The police soon burst in, and found the girl wearing her dead mother's dress, dancing across the floor, blood dripping from her mouth. The girl had consumed her father's heart.

Regina smiled as she watched Prince Charming crying over Snow White's dead body. The end of their life together made her ecstatic, and then they kissed. And Snow White woke up. Regina grabbed the nearest thing and threw it at the mirror. The Queen was angry and any and all living thing should stay far away.

Regina started yelling in the middle of the night, toppling the furniture and attacking the other patients. Until two orderlies had to drag her off into a nice padded cell, after making sure that she couldn't even harm herself. The woman spent the next week ranting and screeching in her cell.

Then she appeared, a girl wearing white, shining blonde hair, sent to slay the Evil Queen. Regina couldn't help but stare as she watched the interloper in her castle, a beautiful young woman wearing armor and carrying a giant blade. She charged Regina, her sword cut through the air before landing with a clang on the floor. Regina had dodged the blow.

Regina stared at her new roommate. The other woman didn't make any sign to attack her and just sat down on her bed, leaving Regina to stare at her warily from her side of the room. The woman just stared for the rest of the day, while continuously muttering under her breath. “She's the White Knight.”

“Hey Regina!”

Dear Sheriff,

I fucked up. I knew what magic could do, I knew the price I had to pay, but I did it anyways.

Besides, you'll be much happier with him... He is your child's father after all.

I bet you didn't expect to see him back.

I brought him back, because I knew you would like it. Consider it, if you will, the only act of kindness I have ever extended towards you, I don't need you to love me. Please give all your love to Henry.

I know that I don't deserve a last request. I'm not a nice person, I couldn't even pretend to be good... But I know that I loved you, and for you to be happy. I had to die.

So my request.

Please don't tell Henry, tell him I'm a horrible detestable witch and that I left him alone. Just don't hurt him. Never tell him the truth.

Live long and prosper,

Regina

Dear Ms. Swan,

Hello.How are you doing?I realized I was a little hasty when I fired you... You just reminded me too much of myself. Ambitious, stubborn and successful. Those are great qualities, and you wouldn't make the same mistakes I have. You wouldn't try to become inhuman, you're far too nice to do something so stupid.

So I've given you everything I have in the one way I know how.

I've removed myself from your path. So consider this letter my last interaction with you as your equal.

With this letter, you will find enclosed my updated will.

I'm leaving everything to you. The firm, the house, everything. My love too if you will accept it. I had planned on confessing to you. Planned too, but I had never had the courage to carry out. I'm sure you would have refused anyway.

So here we are now. I've given you everything. Please use them as you please.

Best regards,
