Ava woke up to hear knocking at her door. She rolled over to look at her clock and groaned as she realized what time it was. Who was knocking on her door at 2 in the morning?

The knocking persisted, so Ava got up and opened her door. Lola was standing there, wide-awake and not looking ashamed of herself at all. "Hi."

"What are you doing out of bed at this time?" Ava asked, yawning.

"The weird woman, Sophie, is downstairs," Lola whispered. "I keep hearing her opening cupboards and stuff. That seem normal to you?"

"Not at all," Ava said. "Did you wake up Henry yet?"

"Was just about to do that now," Lola said. She grabbed Ava's hand and dragged her down the hall as quietly as possible to Henry's room. If Emma or Regina woke up and found them out of bed, the whole thing would be over.

"Do we knock?" Ava asked.

"He won't wake up even if we do," Lola said, opening Henry's door. "He sleeps like the dead."

Ava giggled at her little sister's wording before following her into Henry's room and shutting the door behind her. Lola ran over and jumped on Henry's bed, shaking his sleeping form until his eyes groggily opened. "What the-"

"Shhh," Lola hissed. "If you wake up Mom or Ma, this whole thing will be over before it even starts."

"What will be over?" Henry whispered. "What the heck are you doing up? And in my room?"

"Sophie is downstairs going through our stuff," Ava explained. "Lola woke up and saw her. We have to stop her and make her leave."

Henry's brow furrowed in confusion. "But she's an old friend-"

"No, she's not," Lola interrupted. "Ma has no idea who she is, but Mom thinks that she's faking it so that she doesn't have to face her past. Whoever Sophie is, she definitely isn't an old friend of anybody in this town."

"So, what do we do?" Henry asked. "It's not like we can go down and confront her, because then we'll put ourselves in danger. We have no idea what this woman is capable of."

Lola smirked and held up her hands. "I think a little magical mischief is required."

Henry and Ava shared a glance before smirking back. This was going to be a lot of fun.

All 3 of the Swan-Mills children crept as quietly as possible out of Henry's bedroom and down the hall to the stairs. Now that they were closer to the kitchen, Henry and Ava could hear what Lola had been talking about. Someone was definitely going through the supplies downstairs.

"Remember the squeaky stair," Lola whispered.

Henry and Ava both looked at her in surprise. "How many times have you snuck downstairs in the middle of the night?" Henry asked.

Lola shrugged. "I get hungry a lot." Ava covered her mouth to keep from laughing.

They each went down the stairs one at a time, all of them successfully avoiding the squeaky stair. They gathered together in the foyer, silently nodding when they were ready for the fun to begin.

Henry and Ava went to the entrance to the kitchen, both of them standing on either side of it. Lola concentrated before poofing string into their hands. They smiled at her before kneeling on the floor, pulling the string tight. If Sophie tried to run, she'd find herself tripped by the string that she couldn't see.

Lola smiled back at them before turning herself invisible. If she was honest with herself, sometimes her powers scared her. Not only was she the product of True Love, her mothers were the most powerful people with magic that anyone knew. Besides Gold of course.

Lola's part of the plan was probably the most important. While she didn't want to wake up her mothers, they needed to see what Sophie was doing and make her leave. Lola walked into the kitchen, fury building up inside of her as she saw the state of the kitchen.

Sophie had gone through every nook and cranny, taking anything valuable and sticking it into a bag on the floor. She was dressed in her clothes from the day before, and looking completely energized as she stole from the Swan-Mills kitchen.

"You picked the wrong family to mess with," Lola mumbled. The first thing she did was poof the bag of goodies out into the hallway. When Sophie went to throw another glass into the bag, it fell to the floor, noisily shattering.

Sophie whirled around and stared at the damage, wondering where the heck her bag had gone. She held her breath for several seconds before sighing in relief. No one had woken up at the sound.

Lola smiled at her panic before making the lights flicker. This was the classic horror film move, and tonight it worked perfectly. Sophie looked up in terror at the lights, sighing in relief when they calmed down.

Lola sighed in frustration. Why wasn't Sophie getting the message and leaving? It would be so much easier if she just did that.

But thieves are desperate, and Sophie was no exception. As she reached to take one of Regina's most prized possessions, a beautiful china vase that Emma had gotten her for her birthday, Lola snapped. Who did this woman think she was?

Lola used her magic to rattle the doors on all of the cupboards, and Sophie screamed. She instantly covered her mouth after she had, but the damage had been done. Lola glanced up as she heard the door to Regina and Emma's room hit the wall as it was thrown open. Sophie tried to run for it, but tripped on the string that Henry and Ava were holding.

"What in the world is going on down here?" Regina demanded, waving her hand to turn on the lights.

"Henry? Ava?" Emma asked. "What are you doing?"

"Um...there's an explanation for all of this I swear," Henry said. Ava nodded in agreement.

Lola walked out of the kitchen, visible again. "Sophie was stealing all of that from the kitchen." She pointed to the bag, and then glared at the woman still lying on the floor.

"I can explain," Sophie said weakly.

"You better," Emma said. "Who are you, and what do you think you're doing claimed to be an old friend of mine?"

"When your wife called the agency, looking for anyone that you would know from your fostering days, I was outside raiding the trash. It was easy for me to walk in and claim that I was looking for an old friend of mine named Emma Swan," Sophie said. "They were stupid enough to believe me when I said it, and gave the contact information for you."

Emma looked at her with nothing but fury. "How dare you. How dare you come in here and claim to be a friend of mine. Get out of this town. You're lucky that I'm not calling the Boston Police and having you arrested."

Sophie's eyes widened. "You wouldn't do that, would you?"

"No," Emma said. "I'm not that kind of person. I know what jail's like. But get out. Now."

Sophie scrambled to her feet and ran out of the house. She got into her car, that she had probably stolen, and drove away as quickly as possible.

The whole house sighed in relief once she was gone. "Whose idea was it to scare her like that?" Regina asked.

Henry and Ava quickly pointed to Lola. Lola just smiled and shrugged. "I needed to pee, so I went to go to the bathroom, and I heard her going through the kitchen. I knew that there was something off about her."

"Well," Emma said, smiling. "I think we know to trust Lola's intuition from now on."

Lola just smirked. "It's about time someone said it."
