The day staff of the Hidden One's were expecting a quiet day today. No deliveries were expected, everything had been accounted for behind the bar and in the kitchen where they cooked very simple side dishes at very little cost to them or their customers that would go along side any drink available on tap. Life was good for a moment.

That quickly came to a sudden end as Mayor Mills stormed through the front entrance in an unforgiving mood. The day staff were caught like a deer in headlights as the former Evil Queen stopped in the middle of the bar and looked around as everyone froze what they were doing and simply wait for what had gotten the former Queen is such a mood

The anger that rolled off her head as her eye's tried to find the redhead "Where is she?" the Queen growled at the staff

"Upstairs, second door to the left" Launce quickly answered the woman's question as he watches her climb the stairs

Amelia was in for one hell of a morning


Not knowing about the oncoming storm that was currently making her way up to that very office the redhead listened closely to what LeBeau had come to see her about early that morning as she worked the books

"Are you sure about what you saw?" Amelia asked man as he stood the other side of her desk as she sat back in her chair with her arms crossed over her chest. The thief infront of her was the head of the guild that operated in Monteriggioni.

He was very good at his job, sometimes better than her. He had overheard the dwarfs with Anton the former giant at Granny's one night, one of the dwarfs had let it slip they were doing something. So while she was busy with Mary Margaret and August he was following them. Whatever they were doing had been cloaked so no one could see if they were driving by but he snuck in last night after they had all gone home to see what was being hidden.

"Yes Milady" he replied in confidence "The dwarfs are growing magic beans in a field just outside town with the giant Anton, the Prince and Princess were there with the Sheriff"

A pregnant pause drowned the room. This was new news to her. Magic beans were a game changer to anyone that were able to obtain one let alone grow them. But why would they hide it from the rest of the town? Unless they were planning on going back home sooner rather than later. But how did they get the first bean to grow the others?

The giant Tiny. Cora and Hook had brought back with them would have the knowledge to grow them if her theories were right (Which most of them are). The Brotherhood had a deal with the giants that grew them, showering them with riches in return for a wealth of beans that would take them to other worlds.

But something happened when Amelia was young, the giants suddenly stopped supplying them. Luckily enough they had enough in their storage to continue their work. It only meant that any missions that took them to another world had to be approved first before departing. The loss of the beans had to worth the trip.

"This stays between us for the time being" Amelia finally tells her man "Keep an eye on the dwarves and the giant, keep an ear to the ground we can't risk the royals finding out that we know something" LeBeau nodded obediently as the door to her office burst open and Regina to storm into the room with a scowl on her face, as the man had to step out of the way of the former Evil Queen's warpath towards Amelia.

"Did you know!?" Regina demanded out of Amelia as she leant her hands on the deck opposite side with angry brown met calm and unperturbed green

"That's all LeBeau, close the door on your way out" the man nodded and quickly left the two women alone "You're going to have to be a little more specific Your Majesty" she tells the former Queen once the door clicked shut

"Did you know about Gold's son and Henry" the brunette clarified after taking in a calming breath taking a step away from her desk.

"I was awkwardly present when Emma finally told her son who his father was, yes"

"And you didn't feel the need to tell me beforehand?"

"I was a little busy holding up my end of my contract with Rumple, and stopping your mother getting her hands on something she doesn't understand and if you hadn't noticed Your Majesty, I don't answer to you anymore" that made Regina take in a breath and calm down as she stood up straight brushing her hair back out of her face "Now why are you here, I'm busy" Amelia pressed the former Queen

"I need you to 'take care' of someone for me" she cryptically tells the redhead

"Define 'take care'? Because if it means what I think it means, you're gonna have to find another huntsman to do that for you"

"Greg Mendel. Get him out of town" she specified "I need him out of Storybrooke"

"Greg Mendel?" she looked at the woman in confusion "Who is he?"

"The outsider"

The guy that hit her and Hook with his car on the town line. At least he had a name now. A curious brow rose on her face as she looked to the former Queen "What else?"

Regina looked at the red head in offence at Amelia's insinuation "What do you mean what else? isn't his name enough?"

"Not when it comes to you" Amelia stated to the Queen "Something I've picked up over the years"

The former Queen cleared her throat awkwardly as Amelia stared her down "His real name is Owen Flynn, he and his father stumbled across Storybrooke some time ago. He's returned looking for him. He's up to something"

"The father's dead?" Regina meekly nodded to the redhead "Let me guess, you killed him" Regina's silence was all the redhead needed to know what she was dealing with. At least she was spared having to deal with that skeleton while she was cursed.

"He know's something about the town, which makes him a problem" the Queen went on only to get nothing from the redhead. She wasn't interested in the least. She meant what she said the other night, she wasn't going to go out of her way to clean up her mess, but if Owen was going to become more of a problem there was one person she would go out of her way to help if not her anymore "If you're not willing do this for me, do it for Henry. Owen knows who he is to me"

Great. Emotional blackmail

"I'll look into it" she finally tells the woman opening the cover of her hardback book, silently inviting the woman to leave. Keeping her eye's on the numbers that filled the pages in front of her she waited until she heard the soft click of her office door shut before allowing herself to look were the Queen once stood.

She was screwed. Indefinitely.


Meeting Belle's cursed self Lacey was odd to say the least as Amelia watched the cursed woman from across the Hidden One's bar later that afternoon. The girl the total opposite to the kind shy woman the redhead knew. She sat by herself on the corner of bar as the jukebox belted out music drinking anything that was put in front of her occasionally chatting to Lance and Amelia whenever they came close to her.

But what was odder was when David and Gold walked into her bar. After Lacey sent the former Sheriff of Nottingham on his way, Gold took his place while David took a seat at the bar a few places from Lacey as Gold attempted to talk to the younger woman

"Huh! . You're…uh…you're back" Lacey greeted the older man with a smile

"As you are" he replied as Amelia took Launce's place as the bar as David's eye's met hers. Amelia gave the question look before pouring out a glass of beer to the second Sheriff.

"Well, what can I say? Love the ambiance and Amy here is taking such good care of me" the younger woman motions towards the owner, Gold sent Amelia a look that would've killed her back home. The music on the jukebox changed as Lacey took a sip out of her drink Amelia had made for her earlier "What the bloody hell is that?" Lacey suddenly exclaims "Let's get some Panama goin' on in here" she turns to Gold "You like Van Halen? You're a Hagar man, aren't you? Huh?" Lacey leaves the man as Gold looks to David for help

"What are you doing?!" David exclaims at the Dark One

"We have nothing in common" the old man argues with the younger as the redhead was stuck in between them, still with no idea what was going on.

"That doesn't matter. You just..need a way in. Ask her out. Go on" Gold leaves the bar on David's advice to the jukebox

"Dating advise? Really?" Amelia sent David once they were alone. David held his hands up in a mock surrender before sipping the chilled beer Amelia supplied him "since you're here I do a question"

"What is it?"

"The giant Cora brought here Anton, was he part of the same giants that grew magic beans, right?" she braoched the subject with the man himself. She needed to know for herself of what LeBeau had told her before Regina's interruption

Amelia watched closely as David's back stiffened like he'd been caught out and sit up in his chair "No" he answered her shaking his head "not that he mentioned anything about magic bean's, why'd you ask?" she saw a thin sheet of sweat cover his brow, he was panicking. She heard him stutter.

"My mother" she shrugged to the Sheriff "She used to tell me bedtime stories about them when I was younger. I was just curious" Amelia told the Prince. He seemed to buy the excuse as he calmed down and relaxed back in his seat.

"I'm sure Anton will answer any questions you have about his family, you can usually find him at Granny's in the evenings"

"Thanks, I think I just might" she gave the man a gentle smile as she left the Prince to re-join Gold at the jukebox. She sought out LeBeau in the kitchen, she gently grabbed his shoulder as he continued to cook

"Do you know where the field is?" she asked him in a low voice, the man nodded "Find a few men to spare and meet me out back after hours, be discreet the Prince and Dark One are here" he nodded again as she left the kitchen and headed straight to her office unlocking the bottom cabinet of her desk and taking out her leather bracers.

Only to stop herself as she found herself putting them on her forearms. She hated being lied to, especially by those she thought her friend.

Fool her once right?

"If they don't trust me now, they never will' she reminded herself as she headed to her office door slamming the door behind her.


With the club closed firmly behind them she led the two cars of her thieves with LeBeau directing them, she was the first one to pull up next to the open field, she wasn't surprised to see Regina's car already parked on the side of the road as she stopped her car and cut the engine.

As she climbed out of her bar followed by LeBeau, four others left the car behind hers as she switched on her sixth sense to see through the cloaking spell that revealed what was behind it. She was the first one to walk confidently through the barrier to the field of beans that were growing.

Regina whirled around hearing footsteps on the grass behind her too see Amelia with five of her mercenaries behind her.

A tight-lipped smirk grew on the red head's mouth seeing the Queen already there "So, what's the plan?"

Regina couldn't help but grin wickedly at the Assassin

They were back. And no one, not even the hero's were going to stop them.
