 The witch Maleficent let escape a scream of rage from her throat.

It couldn't be.

No, no, it didn't happen, it couldn't be true.

She was looking at her mirror, seeing something she didn't expect, that she thought would never happen.

Aurora was awake.

"Looks like things are not really going well, said a mocking voice."

Maleficent turned back and gave to her uninvited guest a look full of anger.

"What are you doing here Regina ?"

The Evil Queen smiled to her in a false innocent way.

"Just wanted to go to see my friend, of course. I didn't think that it would be so... interesting, she said, showing the mirror with her hand."

"It shouldn't have happened," whistled the dragon.

"Yes, for sure... Didn't you use the Sleeping Curse on her ?"

"Yes, I did !" Shouted the witch.

"Why did it not work ?"

"True Love's kiss, she answered with almost disgust, remembering another situation, and another asleep princess."

"Oh, I see... Her prince found her. Why didn't you stop him ?"

"I did ! I turned him into a beast. I thought that... he would stay that way, or be killed by some villagers... It wasn't supposed to happen that way."

"You should have killed him..."

"Yes. But I wanted them to be separated forever, and to know it."

"And now ? What do you intend to do ?"

"I don't know... By the way, why are you here ?"

"Oh nothing, I just... wanted you to help me, about... something.

"What ?"

"The Sleeping Curse."

"You saw it. It doesn't work."

"Well... it worked, for a time ! And I won't do the same thing that you did. I'll kill her True Love, so she will never be woken up !"

Maleficent gave her a sad and tired smile.

"I won't help you. Ask Rumplestiltskin."

"I can't."

"Why ?"

"Well, how could I say that... Rumple decided to come back into the good side."

The dragon started.

"What ?"

"Yes he did. He doesn't want to help me any more, about my revenge against Snow White."

The other one sighed.

"Maybe he is the one who is right."

Regina rolled her eyes.

"Fine, I will find it by myself. Bye."

Maleficent stayed alone, shocked by all these news that just arrived this day.

Then, not knowing what she would do, she used her magic in order to go in Briar Rose's castle. She became invisible, looking at he young princess that looked so much like her mother.

She looked at her, and she saw a woman who was happy.

She looked at her, and she saw a woman in love.
