Emma looked up at the sky and sighed. It looked like it was going to storm, and badly. Everyone was heading back to their respective houses, and the people from the Land of Untold Stories were all gathering together in the forest. Emma didn't like them out in the open, but there was nothing that she could do.

"You know, when you tell everyone to take shelter that includes you," Regina said, coming to stand next to Emma.

"I'm just making sure that everyone gets where they need to be," Emma said. "Relax, I'll be home soon enough. Just get you and Henry to a safe place."

"Henry is safe," Regina said. "I'm staying here with you."

"What?" Emma asked. "No you're not. You're going home to be with Henry and to get to the basement. Safety."

"Not without you," Regina said strongly. "You are not invincible, and magic can't fight the weather. A big storm is coming, and I won't just leave you out here."

Thunder rumbled overhead as lightning flashed through the sky. Wind started to pick up, and Emma quickly put her hair up in a ponytail to get it out of her face. Regina just turned to face the wind, getting the hair out of her face and appearing like she wasn't scared of anything. Least of all a storm.

A couple of people ran from the diner towards their cars, getting ready to drive home. All of a sudden the clouds let loose, rain pouring down from the sky and lightning flashed even closer. The thunder rumbled, so loud that Emma and Regina could feel the ground shake.

"We need to get to shelter," Regina said, shielding her face from the huge drops of rain.

Emma shook her head. "Not until we know everyone is safe."

"You sent out the warning an hour ago!" Regina shouted over the loud sounds of the thunder and wind. "If anyone isn't home by now, it's their own fault."

Cars drove past both women, frantically trying to get home to their families. One of the cars turned too quickly, skidded on the wet road, and overcorrected. The car behind them slammed to a stop, getting rear-ended by the car behind them. In no time at all, there was a 5-car pile-up right at the end of Main Street.

"Oh no," Emma groaned. She and Regina shared a glance and ran over to make sure that everyone was okay. They were, but were incredibly angry at one another for what had happened; and the fact that they were now all soaking wet instead of in their warm cars.

"We'll get you home," Regina assured them. "Tell us your addresses and we'll magically transport you all there. Much faster than a car."

The group all mumbled before reluctantly nodding. One by one, Emma and Regina transported each person home, leaving their cars piled up. There was no fixing that tonight.

"Now can we go home?" Regina asked.

"I'm too tired to poof again," Emma admitted. "My magic was spent getting all of those people home. Some of them live really far away."

"I know the feeling," Regina said. "Mine isn't the best right now either."

"But we do need to take shelter," Emma said, looking at the sky with wide eyes. "Look."

Regina looked over and saw the biggest tornado she had ever seen coming towards them. She grabbed Emma's hand and pulled her towards the library.

"Why are we going here?" Emma asked. "We don't need to be educated on tornadoes, just need to get away from one!"

Regina rolled her eyes and pulled Emma to the elevator. "I don't know if you've forgotten, but there's a nice little cave under here where Maleficent used to live."

"Oh yeah," Emma said. Regina chuckled before pushing her inside and hitting the button for the bottom floor. Once they got down there, they quickly took cover.

"You know, the last time I was down here you sent me here to be killed by her," Emma said. "How ironic that we're hiding down here to stay safe from a storm."

"Very," Regina said. "You should see if your phone has any service and text Henry that we're fine but in shelter away from home."

Emma pulled out her phone and sighed. "No service down here. Guess we'll just have to apologize tomorrow for scaring him."

"How long do you think we'll be down here?" Regina asked. "It's starting to feel a little creepy."

"Probably a while," Emma said. "We might as well get comfortable."

They got as close as they could on the hard rock before wrapping themselves around each other and falling asleep, the sound of the storm raging above them.

"Oh no," Regina breathed as she stepped out of the elevator. The library was completely destroyed, which didn't really bode well for the rest of the town.

"We're going to have a lot of fixing to do," Emma said, stepping out behind her. "Hopefully no one got hurt. If this is the library, I would hate to see the rest of the town."

"Mom! Ma!" Henry called, running over to them.

"Be careful!" Regina called to him. "There's debris everywhere and you could get hurt."

"Says the one who stayed in the library all night after rescuing people from their wrecked cars," Henry said, hugging Regina tightly. "You guys scared me when you didn't come home, and then none of my texts were getting responses."

"We were in the basement," Emma said, stepping backwards to regain her balance after Henry crashed into her and hugged her tightly. "There was no reception."

Henry pulled away from Emma. "The library has a basement?"

"It's a long story," Regina said. "Something for another time. Right now, we need to work on rebuilding the town."

"You have magic," Henry said. "How hard could it be?"
