The new blonde-haired woman flew into town just after Cora's death. She was like a force of nature; she drove a black Mercedes SLS AMG. The woman had shoulder length blonde hair in a perfect bob cut. She was dressed in a designer suit, and was carrying an expensive briefcase. She stormed into Granny's demanding information on Regina Mills and her son. Then the stranger asked about Gold, and when no one would tell her anything. She stood in the center of the diner yelling bring me your savior.
Ruby and Granny just stared at each other comply confused. They had no idea who the woman was or how she knew about Regina, Henry, Gold or even Emma. Then the woman sat down at a table and stared directly at Ruby and said, "She wolf bring me the one that broke Regina's curse. While I wait, I would like to have some apple pancakes."
That was only the first stranger to roll into town that day. The next was a tall brunette with long wavy brown hair. She rode on the back of an old Indian motorcycle. Black leather jacket, jeans and black boots, a pair of avatar sunglasses completed her look. The brunet strutted into the diner stopping at first to talk to Ruby.
"Rubes,"
"I am sorry, do I know you?"
"You can't remember, because of the curse." The stranger said sadly. At hearing anther outsider say something about Regina's curse, Ruby's whole face went pale and she just stood there staring.
"It's me Rubes; you really can't remember anything. When I was a kid you used to give me free soda cause my Mom would never let me have any and you would call me your little rebel." Ruby just shook her head in disbelief. The stranger seemed heart broken when Ruby had no idea who she was. After the awkward conversation with the waitress the brunette sat down next to the blonde, sunglasses still in place she smiled over at the blonde who just shook her head and rolled her eyes.
"Mother won't be pleased that you are riding that ugly thing without a helmet."
"I don't think she has ever been pleased with anything I have ever done, why should I start being a good daughter now."
"Whatever, you were always her favorite; no matter what you pulled she always forgave you." The brunette grabbed a fork and took a bit of the blonde's pancakes and just smiled. The blonde pushed the plate of food away with disgust.
"Why did you even come?"
With a shrug, the brown-haired woman took another bite, and with her mouth full, "She needs us."
"10 years and you haven't changed a bit." The blonde, growled. The brunette just smiled at her with a mouth full of food.

New of the strange women eating pancakes and demanding the curse breaker had the Charmings rushing to the dinner. The blonde-haired woman stood to greet the group. Smiling she held out a hand for Emma to shake. The brunette just mock saluted the Charmings with a sideways grin. Emma stood suspiciously staring at the duo.
"Who are you and what do you want."
"Well you see Ms.?"
"Swan."
"Ms. Swan I am here to discuss a few legal matters with you in regards to Henry's adoption."
"That's not what you said to Ruby."
"Oh you mean that nasty curse business. No, I have no desire to discuss that Savior. I just knew that would bring you here. I simply want to make sure you legally procured your son back from one Regina Mills." Snow, Emma, and David just stared at the woman as if she was crazy. The blonde proceeded to open her briefcase and pull out a stack of papers. "You see, I have all of Henry's adoption papers. Legally speaking you have no right to the child and I believe you took said child out of the state without his legal guardian knowing. As far as the law is concerned, you abducted Henry Mills from his mother, which is a serious crime Ms. Swan. I am willing to forgo the charges if you release the minor into the custody of his mother."
"No, we're his family and he belongs with us." David yelled and stood in front of his daughter.
"You see the law has other ideas, legally speaking Henry is Regina's son."
"It's her fault our whole family was torn apart." Snow went to stand at her husband's side.
"If you continue with this, I will have no choice but to have the Marshal arrest Ms. Swan. The brown-haired woman stood up next to the blonde moving her leather jacket enough to show the group her badge.
"A federal Marshal doesn't have any jurisdiction in Story Brooke." Emma crossed her arms and glared at the other blonde.
"She does if she is hunting a fugitive." Neither blonde was backing down when Henry came running into the dinner. Stopping dead in his tracks and turning his head to look at the brunette.
"Apple?, then he turned his head and looked at the blond. " Cora?"
