EmmaSwan: No

EmmaSwan: I WON'T LET IT

MissDarkSwan: You can't do anything to stop it

BelleGold: No, the world can't un-revolt

BelleGold: I can't lose my daughter

ReginaOfLocksley: At least your child will still exist!!

TheSeer: It begins

EmmaSwan: EVERYONE STOP FIGHTING

Instead of being met with the vision of her death, Regina found herself in the prophecy room, face to face with the Oracle. "Regina--"

"Don't you dare warn me about this 'un-revolt'," Regina interrupted. "I don't care, because it's not happened. It's cancelled."

"You can't just--"

"I can do whatever I want. I have everything to lose if the revolt falls apart, so I won't let it." Regina marched towards the Oracle. "So go on, tell me all about the un-revolt. It will only inspire me to stop it even more."

The Oracle sighed. "Why did I know this conversation wouldn't end how I wanted it to? If you really want to at least postpone this, you're going to have to defeat both Hyde and the Dark Swan, tonight. They key to stopping it completely lies in the Land of Untold Stories."

"Where in the Land of Untold Stories?"

"You'll know when you see it."

"And how can we defeat both Hyde and the Dark Swan in one night, and still make it home in time for The Librarians?"

"I'm afraid I cannot disclose that information. But I have faith in you, Regina. You'll see me at the end of all of this, I know that much."

The room and Oracle both faded and Regina was left sitting where she was before the vision had hit. She stood up quickly, causing Robin to jump in surprise. "You okay?"

"Call the Charmings, Neal, and Emma," Regina instructed. "I'll call Belle and my sister. We have wok to do. We're taking out Hyde and the Dark Swan-- tonight."
