Protest- part 2

SwanQueen135 asked for a oneshot of a sequel to Ch1980 "Protest" where Emma and Neal get the full wrath of their parents when they have to call Regina over to overpower Emma's magic to open the door.

Sarahlee: Sorry, but I've already wrote a miniseries on this story that's just like that.

Guest: I respect your opinion and think your English is great :). I just feel Cleo chapters always seem to follow the exact same pattern. However, if someone were to ask for a Cleo chapter that was out of the box enough I would be happy to write it.

Guest: Wow. I didn't even notice I'd reached the one-million-word mark! I just want to thank all you guys again because without you there is no story. You guys rock!

"This is your last chance to come out of your own free will." Charming warned his children. "Do either, or both, of you choose to take it?"

"No!" Both Emma and Neal shouted back through. They didn't realise their parents had come up with a way to overpower them. Or more specifically, a person. After Emma and Neal had been hauled up in Emma's room for nearly forty eight hours, they decided to call in the big guns. Regina. Regina was more than capable of outdoing Emma's little spell to keep her bedroom door locked. Snow and Charming hadn't wanted to call her in, but sometimes needs must.

"Well alright kids." Snow sighed. "Remember, you made this decision. It could have gone a lot easier for you had you come out of your own free will. But now, we do things the hard way." Snow turned to her stepmother, who seemed both bored and irritated with this whole process. Emma was a grown woman, why was she hiding in her bedroom over such a minor telling off?! Regina stepped forward and waved her hand. The door clicked open and revealed a shocked looking Emma and Neal. They both gulped. They were for it now. Regina looked back to Snow and Charming.

"Can I go home again now?" She asked. "Or do you need me to discipline them as well?"

"No Regina, you can go home." Charming said, looking sternly at his children.

"Thank you for your help." Snow added. Regina then nodded briskly before poofing herself away. Emma and Neal both had near identical looks of horror on their faces. Rightly so.

"Well, there's no running away now, is there?" Charming said sternly. "But since you both like spending so much time indoors, that can be easily accommodated. Neal, you're grounded for two whole weeks. Emma, you're on desk duty for two whole weeks. Any arguments?"

"No sir." Both Emma and Neal said together. Snow and Charming nodded in syncrasy. They didn't think Emma and Neal would be pulling another stunt like that again any time soon.
