Interesting thought. But I'm not sure I'm buying it.

Assuming that Zelena simply "Hitched a ride" with Emma and Hook, we know that the timeframe will be limited to the Snow Falls/Drifts time. Zelena would NOT waste any time to search for Will, since her focus would be to try and wreck Regina's future. and from what I could tell, Hook and Emma were back in the EF for no more than 3 days/2 nights. The first night was when Hook hired Snow to steal the Engagment Ring during the Royal Ball, and the second night was when Emma was in jail and Snow was "killed".

Also, where are Robin and Will during this time? This would almost have to be after "Heart of Gold", meaning that Will knows of Zelena (or at least the WWotW), and would be quite reluctant to work with her. But the unknown factor is when "Forget me not" is in relation to SF/SD. If "Snow Falls/Drifts" is first timewise, then Will and Ana have not yet departed for Wonderland, and would quite likely not be seperated. and if Forget me not is earlier, then Will and Ana have been to Wonderland, where Ana "dumped" Will to become the Red King, in which case, this is during the time of Will being without his heart (which he doesn't get back and restored until towards the end of OUaTiW), in which case, he would not really even care about getting back to Ana.

Either case, WIll is not going to care to go looking for Ana at that point. So there would be no reason for Will to seek out assistance in performing that act.
