Nana's don't kidnap
Emmapandaman asked for a oneshot of Regina kidnapping a six year old Emma in order to get revenge on Snowing. But then she bonds with Emma and brings her back but tells Emma to tell her parents she escaped so her reputation isn't ruined.
"Lemme go! Lemme go!" Emma screamed, squirming about.
"Keep still you little brat." Regina hissed. "Or I shall turn you into an ugly little frog."
"If I was a frog I would just hop home and have the Blue Fairy change me back." Emma said stubbornly. Regina rolled her eyes.
"Not before I squished you." She said coldly.
"But if you wanted to squish me, you would have done it by now. You're taking me to your castle which means that you want me for something. Probably to upset my mommy and daddy." Regina fell silent, admittedly impressed with the little brat's logic.
"You're so like your mother." Regina sighed. "She was a little wench too."
"My mommy isn't a tool." Emma asked, confused. "Why would she be a wrench?"
"Not a wrench you little fool a…never mind." Regina sighed, not feeling like explaining herself. She had forgotten how annoying children could be. "Now be quiet or I shall use my magic to glue your mouth shut."
"And if you do that I shall stamp my feet and clap my hands so I make just as much noise." Emma threatened. Regina raised an eyebrow at the bold girl. She couldn't help but feel a slight fondness for her. She was very plucky.
"Well aren't you the brave little midget." Regina droned. Emma smiled at her.
"Nobody frightens me!" She said confidently. "Especially not my nana." Regina nearly choked on thin air.
"Your what?" She snarled.
"Nana." Emma repeated. "You're kind of like my mommy's mommy, so you're my nana. And nana's don't hurt their grandkids." Regina couldn't help but appreciate the little girl's spunkiness. Her plan had been to take her to her castle and hold her in the dungeon until her parents eventually arrived. But she couldn't hurt this child- she was too damn cute. She circled round on her horse.
"Hey? Why are we turning round?" Emma asked, confused.
"You're going home." Regina said simply. "I can't put up with your yabbering." Regina ignored her whoop of victory.
They reached close enough that Emma would be able to walk back to the palace, so Regina took her off the horse.
"Tell your parents you escaped, not that I let you go, otherwise next time I won't let you off so easily." She said coldly.
"Sure nana!" Emma said, skipping off merrily. "I won't let them know you're nice!" Regina was lost for words. She really was a little Charming.
