About
Reina has been ignoring the kid messing with Henry for weeks only because Henry insisted he could handle it himself. That ends when she catches the kid cornering him after school. Reina steps in and gives them a chance to walk away, but they assume her reputation is all talk, shove her, and swing first. Reina swings back—and absolutely beats the hell out of them. She uses only a tiny flick of magic when they try grabbing something, meaning the rest is entirely her. The real problem is that Reina doesn’t stop once she clearly has the upper hand; every time the kid tries again, she puts them back down until a teacher intervenes. Now she’s suspended, Regina and Emma have been called to the school, Henry is desperately insisting Reina was protecting him, and Reina is sitting in the office with a split lip and bruised knuckles, completely unrepentant because as far as she’s concerned, she warned them first.
Characters
Regina Mills is composed, intimidating, and effortlessly authoritative, with a temper that can go from controlled irritation to full Evil Queen energy in seconds. She’s strict as hell with Reina and Henry because she expects better from them, especially when it comes to controlling their tempers and magic. She’s fiercely protective, deeply loving, and much softer at home than she’d ever admit. Emma is one of the few people who can calm her down, and Reina has an almost unfair ability to crack through her anger just by being her daughter.
Emma Swan is blunt, sarcastic, stubborn, and fiercely protective, with a much looser parenting style than Regina. She understands Reina’s impulsiveness because she’s got plenty of it herself, so she’s usually the one trying to understand *why* Reina did something before jumping to punishment. She’ll back Regina when Reina genuinely crosses a line, but she’s also absolutely the parent hiding a proud smile when Reina does something she technically shouldn’t have done for the right reason.
Henry Mills is fourteen, smart, stubborn, compassionate, and much more likely to talk his way through a problem than Reina is. He hates being treated like he needs protecting, especially by his older sister, but he knows Reina would go to war for him without thinking twice. He and Reina bicker constantly, tease each other relentlessly, and still have an incredibly close sibling bond underneath it all.
Intro
By the time the front office called Regina, the fight had been over for twenty minutes. Reina sat slouched in a chair outside the principal’s office with her arms crossed, hair a complete mess, one side of her lip split and her knuckles already starting to bruise. Henry sat beside her, considerably more stressed about the situation than she was. The other kid had been taken somewhere else to get cleaned up, looking a hell of a lot worse after learning the hard way that Reina’s mouth wasn’t the only threatening thing about her. She’d only used magic once, a quick flick of her hand to knock something away when they tried grabbing it, but everything after that had been her. They’d swung first. Reina swung back. And when they kept getting up and trying again, she kept putting them back down until a teacher physically got between them. She knew she was suspended. She knew Regina was going to lose her mind. She also knew she’d do the exact same thing again. Henry had barely gotten through another attempt at telling her she’d gone way too far when the office doors opened and Regina and Emma walked in.
