CHAPTER 5 – SHE'S HERE

Cora returned to Hook's ship with a strange feeling that something was off with Regina. She spent the whole morning watching the house and for the first time in two weeks nothing happened. There was no moves.

Just then she noticed a nervous Hook that ran towards her.

"Cora, where were you? I have been looking for you all morning." Hook said nervously.

"What is it, dear, missing me already?

"No, you don't understand. Archie... Archie disappeared, he-"

"What?!" Cora yelled at him angrily. "How did this happen, what did you do? Hook, you're so stupid!"

"I did nothing, Cora, when I woke up and went to see him, he was no longer there, he must have been given a way to get out."

"I knew something was different! He must have gone to warn Regina, and also the Charmings and told them that Regina wasn't guilty. Now there is no movement in the house, she's not there!" Cora shouted angrily. "I have to fix that, I have to find Regina."

Cora went to Regina's house and began looking everywhere, searching for some clue or sign of Regina or where she might be. When she got to the bathroom and saw the blood on the ground, she was worried. There was a lot of blood there and if it was Regina's blood then something was wrong, she could only be in the hospital.

When Cora approached the hospital she saw Emma's yellow car. She knew there was something different in the air around the hospital, she could feel it. There was a strange feeling, it's the feeling of something powerful, something like magic. She disappeared in a purple smoke and concentrated on the hospital, but she couldn't enter. She reappeared outside, somehow, something was preventing her to entry in that place and it made her furious. She tried again at least twice more, until she realized that she wouldn't be able to enter, there was magic protecting the hospital.

Belle was reading a book while Granny was sleeping. Ruby, who was waking from a tiring morning, began to sense a different smell coming from outside the hospital and when she looked out the window, she could see someone disappearing in a smoke. She could only think of two people, Regina or Cora and since Regina was hospitalized, it could only be Cora.

Ruby ran to where Emma, David and Snow were and told them what she had seen. Then, they ran to Regina's room, who was startled by the sudden entrance of them and ended up waking Henry who also seemed confused by the three worried faces.

"What is it? What happened?" Regina asked.

"Are you okay?" Henry asked from his waking state of drowsiness.

"She's here, Regina, Cora is here." Emma said.

Regina suddenly turned pale and fear went through her spine. "What? How do you know? Oh my God, Henry, she came to take Henry away from me!" Regina said horrified.

"I saw her out there, I think she was trying to enter, but I only saw her disappearing into purple smoke." Ruby said.

"Damn." Regina said preparing to get out of bed.

Emma pushed her back into bed and tried to reassure her.

"She won't get in, Regina, Mr. Gold cast a spell on the hospital. She can't come in here, no one with magic can do this, just me, Mr. Gold and the Blue Fairy." Emma said looking into her eyes.

"You don't know my mother, she is powerful, pretty powerful. If she wants to get in, then she'll. She'll find a way, you can be sure!" Regina shouted at Emma who was still trying to keep her in her bed.

"You're right, I don't know her, but I know she didn't come in, otherwise this hospital would already be in flames, we'll deal with her. Me, you and Mr. Gold. Now you need to rest, because we need you to fight against Cora and if you don't cooperate then it's your child's life that is at stake." Emma said.

Regina shuddered at the sound of Emma's words. Her child. Emma was referring to Henry, but Regina was so nervous that she didn't realize she was paralyzed for a few seconds until she realized that Henry may not have understood. Perhaps Henry had not paid attention. She was so afraid that Henry would stay mad at her for being pregnant.

"Ok, since you decided to calm down I think we can call Mr. Gold and have a conversation on how to stop Cora." Emma said, leaving the room to make the call.

Cora knew it could only have been Rumple's idea. She went to his shop to confront him and force him to remove the spell that was surrounding the hospital.

"My, my... How long it's been, dear Rumple." Cora said angrily.

"Hello, Cora." Mr. Gold said. "Look, I didn't realize you were here in town, when did you arrived?" Mr. Gold said ironically.

"Don't give me that shit, Rumple, you know very well that I was here or have you created a protective barrier on the hospital for nothing?" Cora said.

"Oh dear, about that... that's why you come to me?" Rumple said with a sarcastic tone.

"I want you to undo it because my daughter is there, and I want it now!" Cora yelled.

"I don't think so, Cora."

"Rumple, don't mess with me, you don't know what I'm capable of. You think I don't know? You have a weakness now and if you don't help me I'm going after her."

"Look, dear, this is exactly why I created the protection spell."

"Rumple, I'm serious, Belle will pay for that mistake!"

Rumple flinched when he heard his beloved Belle's name. She is his weakness, and at that moment he was sure that he had done the right thing, he couldn't take the risk of letting Cora get her hands on Belle.

"While they are in there you can't touch them, you know, I was your teacher, remember?"

"Of course I remember, but I also know that this spell won't last long and you can be sure that I'll be outside waiting for the right moment in which that barrier won't resist my power and your precious Belle will pay dearly for this!" Cora threated and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Mr. Gold was angry with her. He is very powerful and he knows that Cora is too. The difference between them is that Cora doesn't have weakness, but he does. He would need Regina's help and together they would have to teach Emma, the saviour, because she was the only one who could really beat Cora.

Mr. Gold was removed from his thoughts by a cell phone ringing. It was Emma, who called to warn about Cora. They agreed to meet with Regina in the hospital and talk about what they would do with Cora.

Regina had asked to keep her pregnancy a secret. She didn't want anyone to know, not yet.

Emma and Mr. Gold entered Regina's room and asked all of them to leave so they could talk privately. Initially, Snow and David were reluctant to leave Emma alone with Regina and Rumple, but Emma came up with the story that she was already grown up and was an adult and now she had another excuse: I have magic, don't worry! That was annoying but they were beginning to think that that could be a good thing, she wouldn't be so helpless.

"How have you been, my darling?" Mr. Gold said when he saw Regina, the ironic tone dripped through the air.

"I've been better." Regina said angrily.

"Ok, I'm not very interested in your fight right now because there is a crazy woman who wants to kill my son. Maybe you'd like to consider leaving this stupid little fight and discuss what we should do with Cora!" Emma said irritably.

They both looked a little annoyed at her. How dare she talk to them that way, who did she think she was? But they also knew that she was right, they would have to leave their differences aside, both for Henry and for Belle.

"Okay, Miss Swan, what do you suggest then?" Regina asked wearily.

"I don't know, I just found out I can use magic, how do you think I'll know what to do with Cora?" Emma replied.

"We need a plan, Cora is very smart and powerful, not as much as I do, but-"

"For God's sake, Gold! She is much more powerful than you and you know that, she doesn't play with magic." Regina interrupted him angrily.

"No, she isn't more powerful than me! But as I was saying... The three of us have a weakness and she knows it. We need to protect them. For now the protection spell that is on the hospital is enough, but won't last long and she knows it. Emma, we'll need your help because only we can defeat her. She is very smart and only uniting our magic is how we can stop her. For that, you have to be in good shape, Regina, and that isn't what seems to be happening." Gold said.

Regina felt exposed and afraid that he would know of her pregnancy. That wouldn't be good. She was also thinking about what Henry would think if she came back to use magic, but she had to do it for him.

"So you won't tell me what happened? Why are you hospitalized, Regina?" Mr. Gold asked curiously.

Seeing Regina's anxiousness, Emma decided to stop Gold's questioning.

"I think that's not the case now, Gold! So what do we do?" Emma said as she received a Regina's grateful look.

"We need to teach you how to use and develop your magic. That takes time, Miss Swan, so we have to find a way to hold her somewhere where she won't be able to use magic, while you prepare yourself. When ready, the three of us must kill her!" Gold said.

So far Emma and Regina were astonished, Cora was cruel and they knew it, but Mr. Gold didn't even blink when he spoke of killing Cora, they saw how much Mr. Gold was cold, even though they already knew that.

"Okay." Regina said taking a while to accept the proposal.

"We just need to find a place to hold her." Gold said thoughtfully.

"That's it!" Emma jumped from her thoughtful moment. "The cell that the dwarves are building with fairy dust, that will stop her powers, won't it?"

Regina and Gold were surprised about how fast Emma thought about it.

"How do you know that?" Gold asked curiously.

Emma was a little embarrassed, but she had to answer.

"Well, I know it worked with Regina once because my parents have told me." Regina looked lost now, but Emma continued. "And... and we were already building one for Regina, but... I think she no longer needs it." Emma said with a small smile to Regina.

Regina couldn't believe what she heard, she was trying to change and they were building a cage for her?

"What? I don't believe you were planning to arrest me in that cell. After what I did for you? I was trying to change? You're unbelievable!" Regina was screaming and looking angry.

"That is just perfect! That is exactly what we need!" Gold said full of expectation.

"She's not stupid, Gold, how do you think we can lock her there?" Regina asked momentarily forgetting the anger she was feeling all of the city.

"With magic! Magic isn't enough to kill her because Emma still can't do it, but enough magic to immobilize her and send her to the cell, that, honey, we can do!" Gold said with an authoritative smile.
