SERVE AND PROTECT WAS WHAT REGINA SPARROW WANTED TO DO WITH HER LIFE. She had the skills to help people, and she knew it, so she wanted to put them to good use. First there was the military where she served and protected her country as a soldier in far away places. Then when she returned, she signed herself up for the secret service so she could serve and protect the most important person in the country: the President of the United States.

At the secret service, Regina Sparrow found her calling. It felt like she finally found what she was meant to do with her life and she loved it. 

She was serving and protecting just as she always wanted because as she protected her President, she was protecting her country too. And to her the Presidents wasn't just the Leader of their people, but they were her friends as well. That just made Regina more determined to ensure their safety.

It wasn't just the Presidents that Regina Sparrow grew fond of, there was also Mike Banning, a fellow agent. The man seemed like an indestructible tank on the outside, but inside he was soft and kind and cared deeply about others. Regina could see that with ease and it was one of the reasons she was drawn to him. A relationship began between the two; casual affairs over a few years, no strings attached. But unbeknownst to the other, they were both developing feelings they promised they wouldn't.

Fate intervened before they could utter a word as two lines appeared on a stick in the bathroom meaning Regina Sparrow was pregnant with Mike Banning's baby. Unsure of what to do, Regina took a leave of absence from the secret service without a word to Mike and vanished. Eight months later, she had a beautiful baby boy and named him Noah yet she still did not say a word to Mike. He was happy where he was and Regina couldn't take away his dream in life. Not for her. 

Regina raised her son and as soon as she thought she was ready, she returned to the secret service, stronger than ever. But she still kept her distance from Mike Banning. And when the First Lady died in an accident and Mike couldn't save her, Regina still did not utter a word in his direction. She wanted to, but what was she meant to say? It was best that Regina and Mike keep their distance.

Yet fate seemed to have different ideas. Because when the White House suddenly comes under assault, Regina is pinned by the crossfire, unable to move or do a thing. And out of everyone on the entire planet, it had to of course be Mike Banning to come to her rescue.

Now Regina and Mike must work together to restore order to the White House and save the President, all the while Mike is trying to restore their relationship and Regina is attempting to her secret under wraps.

regina sparrow

•  Regina's family moved to America from Sweden before she was born and she's grown up in America and is an America citizen. 

• Regina served in the military for a bit before joining the secret service where she met Mike Banning. They had a casual relationship where they both denied their true feelings for each other. When Regina got pregnant, she left and didn't tell Mike about the baby.

• Regina is incredibly well trained. She's a great marksman and even better at hand to hand combat. She also has a high intelligence and can hack into stuff. She's trained in first aid and some bomb disarming. Regina likes a good knife.

•  She re-joins the secret service later on and keeps her distance from Mike even after the incident with the First Lady. 

• Noah is her pride and joy. He's so sweet and smart for his age. He's been told about his Father but he's never gotten to meet him. Noah has a heart of gold and despite his smaller size, he stands up for the kids being bullied and picked on. Sometimes he delivers a good punch too. His parents would be so proud.

notes:

• Regina and Mike can be so sweet but also so fucking chaotic. When they're in the middle of battle together, they're so badass but also insane. They're amazing.

• When Mike finds out about Noah, he's angry at first but then he understands why she didn't tell him. He's such a good Dad to Noah, it's cute. And he's also amazing with their future daughter.

• Mike and Regina have a long history so she knows him so well and would do anything to protect him which is why she goes to find him in act three.  

ACT ONE
olympus has fallen

• Regina works for the secret service and hides behind the pillar so that she isn't shot and she's reunited with Mike. Regina and Mike have each other's backs throughout. At some point, during the fighting, a photo of Noah slips from her pocket and Mike finds it and she tells him the truth. Regina and Mike kick ass and save the president but she gets shot and ends up in the hospital where she formally introduces Mike to his son.

ACT TWO
london has fallen

• Mike and Regina are officially together and he's an amazing Father to Noah. Regina is devastated by Lynn's death. Some time during the shitshow that goes down, Mike asks her if they get out of it alive, would she marry him and she agrees (the President is the biggest shipper ever and will definitely help with the wedding). After she says yes, he immediately starts calling her his fiancée. They save the President and return home to their son.

ACT THREE
angel has fallen

• Mike and Regina are now married and have another kid: Lynn. Regina defends her husband and leaves her kids in her mother's care to go find and help her husband. She finds him on his way to his Dad's where they're introduced. Regina is so angry at the fact it was Mike's friend who betrayed him and wants to set it right. Mike didn't tell her about his condition and she's angry but she understands and supports him. They save the president yet again.

•  I heard that there might be a 4th film. If not, a sweet epilogue would be nice to tie it all up.
