Sorry for the long wait, I hope you enjoy the chapter. `

Emma's vision became blurry and her head started to pound. She did not understand what had happened, all she remembered was one second she was at grannies and the next she was here. She didn't quite know where here was, but she did know is however they got there it made her sick feeling.

Emma felt someone touch her shoulder and say "Emma dear, what's wrong."

Emma looked towards the voice and found a very blurry Regina, Emma instantly through herself against Regina and said "help me, mommy I don't feel so good."

Regina picked Emma up and Emma felt softness under her. Regina put a blanket over Emma and said "it will pass, I forgot you have never experienced magic before."

Emma said "magic" before she could continue she fell fast asleep. When Emma woke up she felt considerably better. Regina was at her side staring at her with a bright smile plastered on her face.

Regina kissed her forehead and said "how do you feel Emma."

Emma sat up and looked around, so many things she saw that astounded her. There where queen dresses, and things that belonged in a castle. Emma said "um, mommy where are we."

Regina stood up and said "My vault, dear. I kept some things from the old world."

Emma said "so you are the evil queen, Henry was right."

Regina came over to Emma and said "that was before, I've changed sense then. I'm not an evil queen. I'm a mother."

Emma looked confused as she said "mommy I forgive you for all the horrible things you did. But why don't we tell the people outside that. So we can go back to how it was before."

Regina said "they would never allow us to do that. I'm the villain to them. They will never believe I have changed. We will have to stay here until I can figure out what to do about them."

Emma said "you cannot hurt them, they have done nothing wrong. I know Snow White is my mommy and not you, I won't let you hurt her."

Regina said "I am your mother, dear. Blood doesn't mean anything. But I never planned on hurting her. We have to leave this town but first I have to find out how to get Henry to come with us."

Emma rolled her eyes and said "why is it all ways about Henry. He doesn't even like you."

Regina's smile faded into a emotionless one and she said "Emma, don't be mean. We need Henry. He is our family."

Emma looked away and said "how long will that take, what if they find us."

Regina said "they won't find us, and if they did we would never see each other ever again. That's why we have to hide. It will take a while but you are going to have to be patient."

Emma said "we are going to be stuck in here for a while, what am I supposed to do in here."

Regina said "it will be worth it in the end, we will get to be a family. Like before just in a different place."

Emma said "ok, all you have to do is get Henry that cannot take too long."

OUAT***OUAT***OUAT***

But It did take long, it had already been a week and Regina still had not gotten Henry to go with her, Emma was becoming restless. There was never anything to do, no one to talk to sense Regina was always downstairs doing something with magic. Regina would not let Emma down there with her.

One night when Regina came up from downstairs Emma said "Why can't I come down there with you mommy."

Regina said "because Emma, it's not something I want you to concern yourself with. There is plenty of things for you to do upstairs."

Emma said "but Mommy you're always down there, I have no one to talk to up here."
Regina said "when Henry get here you will have him, what did I say about being patient. Do you want to be taken away from me?"

Emma crossed her arms. She was feeling very conflicted. Emma said "They won't see us if we quickly go outside. They won't I know they won't."

Regina said "I thought this was about me being downstairs, Emma I already told you cannot go out there. Its not an option. Now go get ready for dinner."

Emma sat on the floor and said "I won't mommy until you let me outside. "

Regina said "I could send you to bed without dinner, is that what you want Emma."

Emma started to cry now as she said "I want to go outside."

Regina said "go to your room this instant. Emma stood up and stormed off. She knew they wouldn't get caught. It was Regina who wanted to keep them there in the first place, for Henry. Why did everything have to be about him? He was the one that poisoned her in the first place.

Emma slammed the door and sat on the princess bed that her mother had made with her magic. There were no windows in the room, it was pretty plain other than the dresser and the desk on each side of the room.

A little while late Regina came in and said "are you done with your little tantrum or am I really going to have to kept you in here all night.

Emma said "are you ready to let me outside."

Regina said "you know the answer to that Emma."

Emma said "then no, I don't want to see you. Until you let me do what I want."

Regina said "Emma, stop being so defiant. I am almost finished getting Henry so we can go."

Emma said "are you going to kidnap him and bring him here. He will not come with you any other way. He doesn't like you, you know because you're the evil queen."

Regina said "I am not the evil queen. Not anymore, now get your night gown on and go to bed. I will see you in the morning." She closed the door and left. Emma did not get ready for bed instead she made a plan into the basement where Regina always was and see what is downstairs.

She opened the door slowly and made sure that Regina was nowhere to be found and found she her not there. Emma quietly made her way towards the door and it opened. When Emma made her way down the stairs they creaked and Emma instantly felt nervous. When she was at the bottom she found an empty room. All that was in the room was a door.

Emma went to open it and suddenly a mirror showed up and said "what is the password."

Emma jumped with fright and said "um you're a person. How did you get in the mirror?" The mirror repeated itself and Emma said "I don't know the password just tell me what's on the other side."

The mirror smirked and said "the outside of course." Emma jumped again as she felt a firm hand on her shoulder and when she turned around she found Regina.

Regina said "you didn't think I would make it that easy to get out of here Emma, did you."

Emma said "Why are you locking me in here, while you can leave."

Regina said "I'm the mother dear. I am going to do as I please. I have to go out there to help get us out of here."

Emma said "why is it locked. Why are you locking me in here? I'm a prisoner."

Regina said "I have to lock it to make sure that you don't go outside. So if you decide to wander like today and you let your head be filled with silly ideas of going out there, you cant."

Emma said "If you not seen out there, how am I going to be seen out there."

Regina said "You are not going outside, that's finale. Go upstairs and get ready for bed like I have told you once before."

Emma crossed her arms and said "I am not staying here anymore. I am leaving tell me the password."

Regina said "Emma I am not playing this game, go upstairs." Emma did not move from her spot she looked into Regina's eyes with defiance. Regina continued "or do you have to be punished."

Emma said "You can't punish me, you're not even my real mother. Give me the password."

Regina grabbed Emma by her wrist and started to drag her up the stairs when they were up there Regina quickly locked the door and said "I don't want to be rough with you Emma, but I will not let you act this way toward me either. Its your choice what side of me you want to deal with."

Emma rubbed her wrist which stung a little and said "where you rough with Snow White, isn't that why we are hiding. She knows what kind of mother you are. She doesn't want her daughter with someone as evil as you."

Regina smacked Emma across the face and said "do not speak to me like that, Emma. Go to your room,"

Emma did not say another word. She no longer felt like she should had anything to say. Regina had just hit her. Emma turned around and ran into her room and closed the door. When she was alone tears started to flow down her cheeks. Maybe Regina really was still the evil queen.
