Regina huffed lightly when she walked into her office. Just like all the other places she checked, the room was empty. "Mother?" she called anyway. Regina walked around to check her desk to see if Cora had at least been there. Of course nothing was touched. Regina took a deep breath, and sat down. Regina tried to think of places where she knew Cora would go. Out of frustration Regina stood up and shoved her chair back into the desk. She didn't want to admit it, but she needed help. On her way to the door, Regina pulled her phone from her pocket and called Mary Margaret.

"I know that we have strong dislike for each other." She mumbled on her way back to the car. "But I need your help."

"Help with what Regina?" Her tone sounding almost as if she were annoyed.

"Have you seen Norah since she ran away from the diner?"

"No I haven't seen her, why? What has happened?"

"My mother is missing, and apparently my daughter is also." Regina said pulling her car door open with one hand.

"Do you think Cora will be going after the dagger?"

"Clean the wax out of your ears Snow. I said my daughter is missing, so is my mother. Which can only mean one thing. She has her." She spat, purposely leaving Hook's name out of the conversation.

"Calm down Regina, I'm almost home now. I'm sure Norah is inside listening to music, or watching TV." She said unaware that Regina wasn't actually that far away.

"How far away are you?"

"I'm walking up the steps now." She said then paused. "Wait, how do I know this isn't a trick?"

"Why would I lie about my daughter being in danger? Forget it. I will find them myself." She said almost throwing the phone.

"Wait." Regina heard Mary Margaret open the door to her apartment. "Regina I think your right… and someone has been inside my apartment and by the looks of it there was a fight…."

"I'm on my way." Regina closed her phone and pulled her car into a parking space. She slammed her car door shut and ran upstairs to Mary Margaret. Without a knock or any kind of warning Regina opened the door and walked inside Mary Margaret's apartment. She wasn't kidding when she said her apartment looked like there was a fight. Regina held her gasp. She stepped slowly in the room. Mary Margaret had already started picking up the mess.

"Don't worry about cleaning up. We need to hurry, if my mother gets the dagger before we do. We will all be in for it." Regina let out a slow breath then waved her hand around in a small circle. When she did some of the mess cleaned itself up. Leaving only a few things scattered around the room.

"Thank you." She said sincerely. Regina didn't respond. Her mind focused on the room. "My mother has been here. I can sense her magic."

"Hey." David said peaking in through the door way. He paused when he saw Regina, then looked back at his wife. "Is everything okay?" He stepped inside close to Snow. "It's Norah, she's missing… and so is Cora." David leaned in close to her ear. "I talked with Emma on the way here. Gold told her where he hid the dagger." He whispered.

"She's defiantly been here." Regina said walking over to them

"Cora? Why would she come here?"

"We think Norah is with her." Snow chimed in.

"Any idea where she would take her?"

"No, I've checked everywhere she could be. My only assumption is, she's searching for the dagger. Which is why we need to find it before she does."

"Shouldn't you be worrying about Norah? David and I can find the dagger, while you get your daughter." She made it pretty clear that they didn't trust Regina. Which she caught on to quickly.

"You're hiding something. You don't want me to get the dagger because you don't trust me."

"Well, this isn't the first time you have lied to us."

"You think I have an ulterior motive? Well let me enlighten you. When I left my mother she was busy working on reconstructing a map. A map that will lead her straight to the dagger. If she finds the dagger, she will control the dark one. Now what are you hiding?" She spat. There really was no time for games.

"We have the location of the dagger." She said quickly then covered her mouth. Regina smiled. Snow still hasn't changed. Still unable to keep a secret.

"Then it's time to make a decision Snow. Are you going to help me or not?"

"We will help you, but we will hold on to the dagger. Emma, and Mr. Gold are on their way back."

"Then let's not waste any more time. Lead the way, Prince." Regina stepped towards the door then motioned them to go in front of her.
