Chapter 9

Emma paces a moment thinking over her own question she had just asked then stops with a sigh. "Looks like I am going to Arendelle"

The mirror looks shocked prompting the Queen to look worried. "What?! Mirror? What did she say?!"

The blonde gulps at the brunette's reaction as the mirror informs Regina what Emma had said. The Queen's eyes widen. "No!"

The blonde looks to the mirror confused. "No? Why not?"

Regina looks over to the empty space trying to figure out where Emma is standing. "If you leave, the mirror cannot follow you. I will not be able to communicate with you and I will not know if you are okay or coming back!"

Emma shakes her head at the mirror. "Tell her I will be okay, I will go and ask about the goblet or any other information possible. Either way they have magic, they must do and I will be straight back"

The Queen looks down hearing the mirror speak. Emma looks sad watching her. "Mirror...tell her majesty..tell Regina that I love her"

The mirror's eyes widen then looks to his Queen, clearing his throat for her attention. "Your majesty?"

The brunette looks at the glass defeated. The mirror looks straight at her to tell how serious he is. "Emma told me..to tell Regina that she loves her"

Regina gets teary biting on her lip then shakes her head while backing away before leaving the vault and slamming the door. Emma jumps at the door and takes a breath. "Guess..that's my queue to go"

The mirror looks apologetic and nods. "Take one of the horses with you. I will encourage her majesty to talk to the dark one as a distraction in case he finds out your plan"

Emma nods watching the mirror darken then leaves the vault to collect a horse.

After speaking with her mirror, Regina calls for Rumplestilskin to grace her with his presence. Leaning against her dresser, the Queen sees the imp appear behind her with a grin. Sighing she turns to face him. "What have you done?"

Rumple raises an eyebrow and sits himself on the chair by the fire. "Care to elaborate dearie?"

Regina grips his hands, balling them into fists. "I know you did something, you must of because she is gone!"

The imp tries to hide the excitement in his voice. "Gone did you say? Why ever would she do that..I thought you two had a..connection?"

The brunette paces. "Whatever your plan is imp it will not work do you hear me? I own this kingdom and I can rid you of this land in a second. I've done it before remember?"

Rumple smirks. "Yes yes..how is the lovely Cora? I hear she has made herself a Queen now.."

Regina glares. "do not speak of my mother towards me. One thing is for certain, I will find Emma again and you will lose"

The dark one stands with a chuckle. "Oh really? See to find someone my oh so Evil Queen, you have to be able to see them and you dearie cannot!"

The Queen inhales sharply losing her temper at the statement and title, throwing a fireball towards him. Rumple disappears in smoke with another chuckle allowing his voice to echo through. "See you soon dearie!"

Having rode out of the kingdom, Emma looked to the map she had to insure she is going in the right direction. The blonde looks down to the horse worried. "I hope these people are nice because it's going to be dark soon"

Slowing down at reaching a large white castle, Emma looks up with a sigh, riding as close as she can before reaching the large door by foot. "Here goes.." The blonde lifts her hand and pulls on the rope chain by the side signalling off a bell from the inside. Waiting for an answer, she looks around the surrounding area with the conclusion that she no longer likes visiting castles as they appear rather scary. However if you can bring yourself to knock on the dark one's door, you can just about knock on any.

Watching the large door being prised open by a guard, Emma offers a small smile. "Hello I have come from the forest and I was wondering if I could ask for-"

The guard's eyes widen taking in Emma's appearance and nods with a smile of his own, cutting the blonde off. "Yes come in"

Emma stops talking surprised by the hospitality and walks in. "Thank you, your very kind.."

The guard shuts the door behind her smiling the whole time causing Emma to be slightly concerned.

"Anderson who was at the door?"

The guard turns seeing a young blonde walk through from the main room curious. Anderson immediately bows. "Your majesty..a visitor from the Enchanted Forest needing our help"

The Queen frowns at the information. "We do not know of anyone from the forest? Unless..Anna.."

Emma watches the pair then realizes the woman in front of her is a Queen and bows quickly causing a chuckle to escape from the woman's mouth.

"I take it you have never been to Arendelle before?"

Emma shakes her head feeling guilty. "Sorry your majesty I have not and I was not aware you were Queen although I knew one did live here"

The Queen nods with a smile and dismisses her guard before holding her hand out to Emma relaxing herself. "Thank god, sorry about that, I am still getting used to the whole ruling thing. I'm Elsa"

Emma chuckles and shakes her hand. "Emma and I am aware you do not know me, nor..Anna?"

Elsa gestures for Emma to follow her. "Oh Anna she is my sister, her husband knows of some people from the forest, I was merely guessing that she would too..although you do seem oddly familiar"

Emma follows the Queen and sits down. "I do?"

Elsa nods causing Emma to bite her lip curiously. "Do you and Anna have any other siblings...or cousins?"

The blonde shakes her head. "Unfortunately not..why?"

Emma shrugs playing it off. "I just heard stories that is all. I am here though to ask about a goblet that once belonged here as I have found myself in some trouble and I need to know why a certain person would need it"

Elsa raises an eyebrow. "I know that we used to have a goblet years ago but it was traded..give me one second"

Emma nods watching the blonde Queen leave her in the presence of a guard.

Walking up the staircase to a separate wing of the castle, Elsa knocks on the chamber door before walking in. "Auntie I need your advice. There is a visitor downstairs named Emma, she is in some trouble and wanted help with information on a goblet.."

Looking over from her balcony the older woman looks in shock clasping her hand together and stopping a cluster of snowflakes she was playing with in the air. "Emma..."

A/N: ooooo will Emma get the help she needs? Also does Rumple stand a chance with all these Queens?! Haha :)
