Your guys reviews were so nice so I decided to add this chapter early, I hope you enjoy!

The next day started early for Emma, which was not in any way when she used to get up. She was shaken awake by Regina, who helped her get dressed and brought her down stairs where Regina made apple pancakes. When they were done with that Regina helped Emma into the car.

Emma wondered where they could be going but her question was soon answered for her when Regina parked at her office. When they went in Regina took some paper and crayons out of her desk and sat Emma at the table that was in there and said "Henry used to love coming to my office with me. Sense you don't start school until next week you will have to come with me. Try to be quite, mommy needs to concentrate."

Emma nodded and she occupied herself with the paper and crayons for a little while until she started to become bored. She went over to Regina's desk and pointed to the TV as she said "Me watch TV."

Regina looked at Emma with some annoyance in her eyes as she said "Emma I directly told you not to disrupt me. Little girls shouldn't watch TV it tends to rot their brains, you don't want that do you."

Emma said "My brain already rotten, me bored with your stupid coloring books, me want to watch TV."

Regina looked angry now as she said "Emma I would like you to go sit in the corner, there is no need to be rude."

Emma started to stomp her foot as she said "no, me not going in time out. You let me watch TV. I won't go sit."

Regina grabbed the girls arm as lightly as she could without hurting her too much and started to drag her over to the corner and once she was there Regina said "another word dear, and I will spank you when we get home. I expect you to straighten your act up, one more tantrum and you will be punished, do you understand?"

Emma looked away tears in her eyes mostly from anger as she nodded before turning to look in the corner. Regina went back to work and after a minute or two sitting there Emma shouted Regina's name and said "Me time up yet."

Regina looked up from her paper and shook her head, which earned her an evil glare from Emma. Emma was even more bored then she had been before, which made her instantly regret getting into trouble to begin with. After a while of sitting there Regina said "You may go back to the table dear."

Emma stood up with joy and made her way back to the table where she started drawing again. When they finally went home Emma looked over at Regina and said "me go outside, it doesn't rot your mind. I want to play."

Regina nodded warmly at the little girl who raced out the door and ran directly toward the apple tree, she had something on her mind. When she got there she pulled apple after apple off the tree and bit only one bite before letting it wash away down the stream that was next to Regina's house.

Emma was then caught off guard by Regina who came storming out. She was definitely angry which made Emma cower away from her. Regina yelled "what do you think you are doing. That tree is one of my prized possessions." Emma smirked as Regina said this, Emma definitely knew how to push Regina's buttons.

When Regina saw the smirk appear across Emma's lips she charged for her and said "you are a very naughty girl Emma, you have left me no other choice." She grabbed for Emma's wrist and pulled her inside and upstairs into Emma's bedroom. Regina sat down on the bed and said "Emma, dear come over here." Emma did not move a muscle, she was not about to be spanked.

Regina said "The longer you try to fight me the more whacks it's going to be. Are we going to have to sit here all day, hmm, wait for Henry? He gets out of school really soon dear."

Emma started to bite her nails as she anticipated what Regina had said before moving a tad closer. Now that she was in reach of Emma, Regina quickly grabbed her and put her over her knee lifting it somewhat to bring Emma's small behind closer. Emma tried to pull up but Emma held her there by her waist. When the first smack came down on her Emma kicked her feet, but Regina continued easily overpowering Emma's small body. When Regina got to ten she let Emma go who ran behind the bed and hid.

Regina followed her around it and said "do you have something to say to me dear." Emma hid her tear covered face in the sheets that hung from the bed too embarrassed to even look at Regina. When Emma did not say anything Regina asked "Do you want ten more?"

Emma pulled her face away from the sheets so she was looking at the ground and mumbled "I'm sorry."

Regina did not take well to the mumble and said "Emma look at me when I am speaking to you, and say it like a lady."

Emma looked up at Regina who was towering over her and wiped her nose with the sleeve of her dress and said "I'm sorry for ruining your apple tree."

Regina must have accepted because she lifted Emma from the ground and embraced her as to comfort her. Emma without noticing it put her head on Regina's shoulder accepting the comfort, which made Regina smile warmly and kiss Emma's temple. She said "I never want to have to hurt you like this again dear, it hurts me as much as it hurts you. I hope to not have another confrontation that ends this way again." Emma closed her eyes but didn't speak, but Regina continued as she said "Mommy loves you dear, she only wants the best for her little girl."

She then let Emma down as she said "go get cleaned up, Henry will be here any minute and we do not need him seeing you like this do we." Emma did as she was told and made her way to the bathroom.

When Henry did get home Emma hung out with him in his room, she could not get herself to be in the same room as Regina. They had lasagna for dinner which Emma found quite delectable. Then after she had her bath before being sent to bed. Regina tucked her in like last time. It was a little less awkward this time. Emma found it was getting harder to be herself, the child in her was starting to take over and Emma found she was starting not to care. She cared as much as a child would. Emma knew Regina was going to win now. What was Emma supposed to do?

That night Emma was woken up by small hands shaking her, when she opened her eyes she found it had been Henry who said "Emma, we have to go, get up."

Emma sat up and rubbed her eyes but made no moves to off the bed. Henry sat next to her and said "We have to find somewhere to hide, mom. I have a plan but we have to go now Regina does not sleep long, she will be up soon."

Emma looked at Henry as if he were crazy and said "Why would we run from Mommy, Henry she would miss us. Me don't want to hurt her."

Henry seemed confused as he said "Regina isn't your mom, Emma; Snow White is. You're my mother."

Emma giggled at this and pointed at Henry and said "you are so silly. Me a child, you too. I cannot be your mommy, Regina is."

Henry was becoming a little frustrated, Emma was Emma in a small body. Now that Emma was gone. The child Emma was all that was left of his mother. He started to pull at her arm and said "we have to go now, Mr. Gold is going to make you all better."

Emma ripped her hand away and said "me is not leaving my mommy, Mr. Gold is creepy."

Henry was about to just get up and leave but instead he got Emma's shoes and put them in front of her and said "now let's go, Emma. You have to save the town, you're a charming."

Emma said "Henry no, you leave or I will tell on you." Henry could not take no for an answer so he picked her up and started to make his way down the stairs. When he went to open the front door Regina must have heard Emma's wailing because she was there to block him.
