Sheriff Graham is on the other line, and right now he is waiting for someone to respond.
"Hello Sheriff" Regina speaks into the phone.
"Madam Mayor, how may I help you?" He asks. Emma just listens quietly, she doesn't know what to say. Something in the back of her mind is telling her to hang up. Somethings not right here, but she doesn't listen and remains silent.
"I'm glad you have asked that" Regina states. "I am trying to convince Emma, that I am, who I say I am, and I can do...what I say I can do" Regina adds.
"Madam Mayor..." Graham starts but is interrupted.
"Emma's on the other line. Say hi Emma" Regina commanded.
"Ummmm...hi" Emma states weakly.
"Emma, where are you. You need to get somewhere safe" Graham rambles quickly into the phone, recognizing the threat that came from Regina that flew directly over Emma's head.
"I am...I'm safe" Emma st-udders. Still confused.
"No Emma, your-" Graham begins again and is interrupted by a sharp pain in his chest. "AGHHH" Graham bends over and clutches his chest trying to stop the pain.
"What's wrong?" Emma quickly asks, sitting up in her seat.
"That's enough of that" Regina quickly states, silencing them both. "Right now my hand is around Graham's heart, squeezing it ever so lightly"
"Madam Mayor..." Graham manages out...then he tries one more to help Emma. "Emma...phone...tra-" Graham starts but something happens and he groans louder and louder until the sound of his phone crashing on the floor is heard followed by nothing but silence.
"Graham, Graham!?" Emma asks frantically. "Oh my gosh Regina, you have to help him...call Dr. Whale so he can help him..." Emma rambles on worried, still confused, but all that doesn't matter Graham sounds like he is in trouble.
Emma hears Regina laughing on the phone. "Emma, Emma, Emma. You don't get it do you...still...I did that. I killed sheriff Graham. He is dead. I squeezed his heart so much, that it just turned into dust. I wanted to prove myself to you"
"What?" Emma asks again. She starting to cry. Starting to mourn the death of someone she barely even knew, but it still hurts. "He's dead"
"Awww, don't cry Emma. I'm here for you. I'm right here for you" Regina coes into the phone.
"What?" Emma asks again with her hand over her mouth. The phone line goes dead and she hears the dial tone letting her know that the other caller had hung up. "Regina...Regina?" Emma asks into the phone anyhow.
"I'm right here dear" Emma hears someone speak beside her into the opened car window.
Emma gasps and looks to her left. Regina's standing there. "Regina?" Emma questions. Fear, releif, sadness, happiness all floods Emma at once. She doesn't know if she should be sad, fearful or happy to see Regina.
"I believe Graham was trying to tell you that I placed a tracking device inside your cell phone. I had placed it in there the second day you arrived in my town...just to keep an eye on you. Honestly, I had forgotten all about it for a moment...I trusted you" Regina states. "I know now to keep a closer eye on you" She adds as she opens the door. Emma's shocked and silent. Even more silent when Regina grabs her face and pulls it towards her and crashes her lips into her own for a dominating kiss. Emma thought she was going to suffocate from lack of oxygen by the time Regina pulls away.
She yelps when Regina roughly grabs her under the arm and pulls her out of the car, shes marched over to Regina's car she didn't even know was there, she looks down questionably at the pile of dust shes stepped on but it's quickly removed from her mind when she's being shoved into Regina's car.
Emma looks around panicked in Regina's car. What should she do? She never agreed to go back with Regina. Emma tries the door handle while Regina's walking around the car to the other side...it's locked. She quickly places her hand down in her lap as the other door opens. Regina gets in and places a seat belt on. Once she's inside and settled she looks at Emma. At first the look is soft, before it turns cold. "You've been a bad girl Emma, you know well what happens to bad girls don't you?" Regina asks.
Emma's to frightened to speak. Regina reaches over and yanks her hair, gripping it tightly. A couple of tears makes their way down Emma's face. Emma nods quickly. "I'm sorry Regina..." Emma cries.
Emma hears muffled cries coming from some sort of monitor attached to Regina's dashboard, She looks at it questionably.
"Oh, that's your mom..." Regina smiles as she lets go of Emma's hair and starts the car. "She's in my basement. Can you believe Graham let her go after I told him to keep her overnight? She's awake now, she remembers everything, why don't you say hello to her...she can hear you" Regina simply states.
Emma thinks this is all crazy. Maybe she's dreaming. Dreaming that Graham is dead. Dreaming that Mary Margaret is tied up in Regina's basement right now. Dreaming that she's sitting in Regina's car.
"Emma" is said as a warning from Regina.
"Hello" Emma whispers.
"I don't think she can hear you. Why don't you speak louder. Say hello Mom" Regina instructs. She wants to punish Snow White. Now that she's awake, and knows that Regina has her daughter, and is abusing her...she can finally get her revenge. She should have thought of this long ago.
"Hello...Mom" Emma obeys, feeling weird about calling anyone mom. Emma bits her lip and looks out the window. What is she going to do? Regina can't kidnap someone and keep them in her basement. Suddenly Emma's afraid. Afraid of what Regina's going to do to her when she gets back home. What's going to happen? Not knowing is the worse. Emma looks back at her forgotten bug.
"Don't worry about your car. I'll have it towed home" Regina states once she notices what Emma's looking at. Emma looks at Regina and she sees the softness in her eyes. Emma realizes that there is two parts to Regina. The part that loves her, and the part that sent her away. It's like there's Regina, and then there's...well, the evil queen...as crazy as it sounds it makes sense a little...
