Andy touched her lover's cold face. She had been layed on the coroner's table with out her clothes. There were only white sheet covering her body. Andy could see the open and empty hole on her chest. "I love you." She whispered to the cold body. "And I will find you."

Few hours earlier she had come to see Miranda to tell her goodbyes, but she had noticed something on the body which wasn't there. Miranda had a birthmark on her left hip. Small, but very ticklish place for the older woman. She had asked her sister to join her.

"What is it?"

"She's not Miranda." Andy had whispered.

"Rea, dear. I know you are hurting but.." Andy stopped her.

"I know, but this body isn't her. She has birthmark on her left hip and believe me. I know that is there."

"Are you sure about this?"

"Yes. I might be grief stricken, but I know that body too well to let it guide my emotions." Andy had found hope again. Miranda might still be alive which meant. She still could find her alive. Miranda always says she lives on hope and it was now Andy's own motto. She lived on hope. They called Emma and her family to meet them at Regina's mansion. When they got there, the two witches threw spells around the mansion so no one could come in without them knowing. Andy had told what she had noticed on Miranda and then and just then Snow told about Lancelot. How Cora had tricked them being him. It didn't matter now because they really needed a plan to get Miranda back.

They soon realized why had Cora targeted Andy. She was the only one who knew how to use magic outside Storybrooke. She needs Andy to teach her which was something what could save them. Cora didn't have her heart and Andy's magic needed that heart. What Andy didn't know, would someone else' heart work? That was the risk. Her mother could rip her heart out and make her put her heart in her. That really wasn't what she wanted to her heart to her mother. They decided that it wouldn't work. She would lie her teeth blue if she had to.

Now she was walking and crying her eyes out. It was pretty easy after remembering what she had almost done because of their mother. Andy knew her mother was close by watching her every move. Soon she felt the familiar terror on her spine when her mother walked behind her. "Andrea."

Andy froze. She turned slowly to face the older woman. "Mother?" She said. It took allot of acting from her part when she ran to her mother's arms and hugged her. "I missed you so much." She cried to her mother.

"There, there. Everything will be alright, darling. Mother's here." Andy had never felt her mother hug her and now she did. It felt good as it also felt strange. Rea, don't be fooled by her kindness. She knows what we want from her. She knows we want her love. She heard her sister's voice in her head. Andy had wanted to feel this for so long, but knew her mother wasn't really doing it because she loved her. She was doing it because she needed something from her.

"Mother, how did you get here?"

"With a friend." Cora told her. "What happened, dear?"

"Regina killed... she killed Miranda..and...and.. I tried to kill her..but..but that fucking Sheriff was there and she didn't arrest her. She didn't believe me, mom. She didn't. I loved her. I really did love her." She cried her pain. It took all of her power to be believable to their mother.

"My dear child. I'm here. I'll help you." Cora stroke her hair. "Will you let me help you?"

"Yes, mother. Regina has to pay." Andy gave her murderess look.

"Oh, she will. Now, darling. We need to go somewhere where they can't find us."

"Where would that be? They know this place better than me, better than us." Andy froaned.

"Magic, dear. Or did you forget that we are witches?" Cora smiled and transported them to some place which Andy didn't know. She only knew it was near the docks because she could hear the foghorn.

"Where are we?"

"Some private place." Cora smiled sweetly to her. "Now, dear child. You need to rest. When you wake up. We will make a plan to get your revenge."

"Yes, mother." She took the bed which she noticed on the corner. "Where are you going?"

"I need get some food for you, dear. I'll be right back." After Cora left she put on a protective spell. She would wake before her mother would get too close to her to do any harm to her. She really wanted to go look for Miranda, but she knew she had to earn her mother's trust to find out who was this friend of hers. Who would help her? She did fell asleep quite soon. Her mother was right. She needed her strength to do what she had to do.

"I thought you would like to sleep." Cora said to her guest.

Miranda opened her eyes to see that her hands and her ankles were free but she was locked in some kind of a cell. There was bed for her to sleep if she wished to do so. "Thank you." She murmured while she rupped her wrists.

"You are quite welcome." Cora smirked. "Oh, I almost forgot. Andrea is with me now and because she is so driven to revenge your death. She will give me everything I ask of her."

No, Andrea! Miranda's mind screamed. "It seems you have won."

"Oh, yes I have."

"Cora, before you go. Let me remind you of something." The woman had stopped middle of her step. "Good always wins."

"My dear. That is only fairytale." Cora left with a smug laughter. Emma, I hope you were serious about that statement when you said that good always wins. She lay down on her bed and thought about her Andrea. She hope to God, that the woman wouldn't do anything stupid.

Regina was worried to death about Andy. She had gone missing when they had seen their mother. She hoped to hear from her sister, but she knew she wouldn't hear form her tonight.

Emma came to her study.

"I know you are worried, but hon. You need to rest." She felt her lover's arms around her.

"I know." Regina let her body relax against the blonde. "It's just that.. it has been so long she has seen Cora. She might have forgotten what kind of person she is."

"Gina, We have to trust her." Emma turned her. "I love you and I will not let anything happen to you or Henry. And I will do my best to keep Andy safe."

"I love you, too." Regina smiled. Emma might not have noticed her words but Regina had.

"Oh, good." Emma met her lips with a passion. It felt like it had been along time since they had kissed like this and she had missed it. She felt her feet get off the ground and she was carried away from her study. Emma took her to her bedroom.

"Let me make love to you."

"Yes." She could only say. She could never deny Emma.

Emma was so gentle with her. Caring and loving. It wasn't frantic trust like before. When she came she felt like her orgasm would never end, but when it did. She really was spent and she had fallen asleep soon after that. Emma had stayed next to her telling that she needs to sleep. Not to worry about her needs. Oh, how she loved Emma.

Andy woke up when the sun was getting up. She had slept the whole night without waking up. Which meant her mother hadn't been there. Where was she? "Mom." She called out, but nothing. Andy took off the spell and got up from her bunk. She noticed her clothes were wrinkled so she took her wand and changed her clothes to clean once. She looked out of the window and noticed her mother coming out from thin air. Oh, there she was. She must have a boat with her. Her mother was talking to some man who's left hand was a hook. It must be Hook then. The man who Emma and Snow met in Enchanted forest. She backed out form the window before they noticed her. Soon after her mother puffed in. "Good morning, dear."

"Morning, mother." She gave her sad face to her mother. "There isn't any good about this though."

"Dear child. You need to let go of her. She is after all. Gone."

"I know mother and I will let go when I have Regina's head on a platter!" Her mother didn't notice her watching when she smiled. Andy felt her stomach flip. It was that arrogant smile which she remembered form Enchanted forest.

"Dear, you will get everything you want. Let me take care of that." Her mother told her. Andy's stomach was flip flopping when her mother offered her food. "I know you aren't hungry but you need to eat to get you strength back." She was right on that. She did need her strength fully if she was to get her mother dead or back. How can she get her mother back if she never had her? She wondered.

"Dear, I need to get some things together. I need you to stay here."

"Mother, please. Let me come with you."

"No, I need to keep you safe, dear. This is the place." Her mother left her alone again. Andy duplicated herself to stay there. If someone would come in they would find her twin. Who wouldn't talk or say anything. She could be in catatonic after all. She had lost her true love and almost killed her sister for it. She transported herself to Regina's mansion.

Regina was already wake when Andy appeared to the kitchen. The older woman jumped a little but when she saw Andy she hugged her.

"Rea, you okay?"

"Yeah," She took some coffee. "You know she is sick. Really sick, but I think I know where she keeps Miranda and I think I know who's with her."

Regina sat down next to her.

"Well?"

"She is at the harbor with Hook. The ship is hidden to naked eye so you will have hard time to find it." Andy sipped her coffee. Why was it that her sister's coffee tasted so much better than Starbucks?

"Did you try to contact Nigel?"

"I did, but we have a problem. We can't contact outsiders. Someone has hidden our town again."

"By someone you must mean our mother."

"I do." Regina leaned on the table. "Has mother asked you anything?"

"Not yet, but soon she will. Did you find her heart?"

"Not yet, but I know it is in my vault. Somewhere there." Regina left out desperate breath.

"I will try to get to Miranda today."

"No, it's too dangerous to do it now."

"Gia, I have to know is she alright." Andy was desperate.

"I know, but right now you have to play along."

"I am going to go and see if she is alright. You can't change my mind on that."

"You will give me ulcer."

"I love you too." Andy smirked. "I need to get back before she comes back to see me and would only find my double there. Oh, she wants to kill you as much as she thinks I want to kill you. So, be careful, sis." With those words she left.

Her mother was about to enter her room when she arrived to her so called room. She had to act quickly and in mear seconds she had her double back in her body when her mother stepped in.

"You should rest." Her mother said again. "I have big plans for tonight."

"Mind telling me?"

"Not yet." Without a warning her mother had thrown something at her and she fell a sleep.

Cora studied her sleeping daughter. "You sould have been the queen. Not your foolish sister. You are much more stronger than her." Cora sat next to Andrea's sleeping body and touched the girl's cheek. "You always were my number one child." Her hand caressed those long brown locks. "Why did you have to run away from me?" Cora had a feeling in her mind. A feeling which she had never felt before. She could only say it felt like a sadness but she knew it wasn't that. Regret was much closer to it. She shook her head to rid her mind of foolish feelings which only were for the idiots.

"Now, lets see how you tic so I can make you toc." Cora lay her hand on Andy's forehead and closed her eyes to see inside her daughter's mind.

She was stonewalled.

It hit her hard and her eyes snapped open. "My, my, dear. You have some wonderful tricks, but mine are better." She tried again and the same wall hit her but this time she didn't stop there. Cora could feel her sking starting to sweat and the body next to her started restless sleep. Fighting against her mental abuse. Suddenly the image changed to clouds. She was flying on the broomstick. Never had she seen one quite like this before. Suddenly it took a deep drive and she could see a small golden ball. The ground was getting closer and closer and she almost let go of the memory when suddenly a hand catched the ball. There was cheers to be heard and she felt happy. There were other teammates who came to her and lifted her up. They had won something.

Yet again the brick wall hit her and she started to feel frustration lurking it's way inside her mind. "Oh, you little..." Cora murmured and pushed through again.

This time she ended up facing her daughter.

"You will die tonight." Andrea's voice was poisoneus. Her eyes were cold as ever. One sift move from her wand and Cora felt excruciating pain in her body. It felt like she was dying. The pain was too much for her and she let the mental connection break. Cora's eyes flew open and she gasped air. Her skin was sweaty but she could feel the cold shiver go down her spine. This would be useless to continue. She thought. It seemed her little girl had learned few tricks while being here. Cora stood up and started to pace. What else could she do? She tried to open up a window to Regina, but it obviously was blocked from any magical attempts. Same hapenned when she tried Sheriff Swan. They must be together then. Cora thought. Who else? Her step came to halt. Oh, of course! She magicked new window which showed her Prince Charming and Snow White also known 'Mr. And Mrs. I will always find you'. How dull.

"Are you sure this will work?" Snow asked.

"I don't know, but we have to trust Emma."

"I do trust. I just don't trust Regina and how different could her sister be? Really. They both have the same mother after all."

"Emma trusts them and we have to trust her." David kissed his wife. Ugh, Cora wanted to hurl her guts out. "I'll see you later. I need to see Ruby and ask her help."

"Okay, be careful." With one last kiss the man left.

Cora was about to close the window but then she heard Snow's comment. "I truly hope to God that Andy can pull this hoax on their mother."

So, her darling daughter would betray her which also meant she knew Miranda was alive. She sould just kill her, but for some reason this dragon lady had captivated her intrests. She wasn't scared of Cora and there weren't many of those who didn't fear her. She would spear the dragon lady's life, for now.
