Emma, Regina and Hazel managed to go and track Sydney Glass to a small hut in the forest and knocked on his door.
"Absolutely not." he said and shut the door.
"You didn't even hear what we had to say!" shouted Emma.
"I don't need to! You lot always get me into trouble and I will have none of that! I want to live peacefully by myself and that is all!"
"Just one favour." said Regina.
Sydney opened the door and said, "You always say that, 'one favour', but then it turns into another one and another and another!"
"Please, we need you."
"None of it! No!"
"Please." said Hazel.
"And who are you?"
"I'm Hazel, daughter of Pluto."
"Pluto? Pluto? PLUTO!"
"Why, what's wrong?" asked Emma.
"The daughter of Pluto is standing in front of me! Pluto!"
"Is that a bad thing or a good thing?" asked Regina.
"Pluto was the man who made me a genie in the first place! Made me lose centuries of my life! Made me trapped in a mirror! Made me meet you!"
"Ouch." said Emma.
"Exactly, Ms Swan! I hate to have that girl stand in front of me!"
"Please, sir-" started Hazel.
"The answer is no!" shouted Sydney. "You're lucky I didn't kill you for what your father did to me!"
"Wrong Pluto." said Emma. "She comes from this world, the Land Without Magic."
"What?"
"It turns out in this world, there are other beings with the power of magic and they are called demigods - children of Gods." said Regina.
"But Pluto isn't a God!"
"Wait, what?" asked Hazel. "Lord of the Underworld himself."
"That's Hades! Pluto was my brother and my best friend and we did so much together until my wife became deeply ill. We searched for a way to restore her and so we travelled to a place called the Well of Wonders and when the guardian of the waters said no, we didn't listen. By the time we came home, my wife was dead already and whilst I mourned, Pluto drank the water... he told me she was dead before we left and that the water was for him all along as he caught the disease. Nyx - the Guardian of the Well of Wonders - came after me and transformed me into a genie..."
"I'm so sorry..." said Emma.
"And that's not the worst part!" cried Sydney. "He left my poor daughter all alone! My poor, poor... Amara."
"I feel bad, Sydney," said Regina. "I honestly do. If that happened to Henry, I would have killed Pluto by now but we have a new threat. This young girl has done nothing to you and we need your assistance. One small thing and that's all, please."
"I have never seen you with such a heart before, Regina," said Sydney. "But I want us to make a deal."
"What?"
"Come inside."
Emma, Regina and Hazel walked into the hut to see a giant investigation board with countless photos and words written all around.
"What's this?" asked Regina.
"Ever since the Snow Queen freed me, I have been doing this in my spare time and I managed to find a way to reunite with my daughter."
"Sydney, you were trapped in that lamp for centuries, Amara must have died by now." said Emma.
"I know, I know! But there is something in my heart that tells me that my blood is somewhere in the realms, I don't know which but it's alive, I can feel it."
"Perhaps I can help." said Hazel.
"How so?" asked Sydney.
"Yes, how?" asked Regina.
"It seems that Roman Gods don't exist in your world but in mine, Pluto is the God of death, there has to be a way to somehow know if someone is dead or alive with me."
"Yes! Yes, that's true!" said Sydney.
"Hold on, this could be dangerous." said Regina.
"Regina, we need to give this a shot," said Emma. "Sydney is our only way for us to get Excalibur, we have made it too far to give up now."
"Fine... if it's okay with you Hazel."
"It is," replied Hazel. "Let's do it."
Hazel went outside with the others and Regina used chalk to draw the Mark of Charon.
"If we're going to do this, we need a spell." said Regina. "If Gold taught me anything, we need some way to help Hazel locate using blood magic and that could help Hazel try to track down the family tree, so Sydney..."
"If I must, I'll do it." said Sydney.
He took a knife out of his pocket and sliced his hand and as a drop of blood oozed from his hand, it hit the middle of the symbol and it glowed in a dark red colour. Hazel focused on the blood and her eyes glowed in a dark blue colour and she saw a family tree appear in a vision. It was quite unclear but she could vaguely see that for every person who has died has a cross on top of their names and she soon saw it...
"Well?" asked Regina, when Hazel's eyes stopped glowing.
"She's dead." replied Hazel.
"Oh..." sighed Sydney. "It alright."
"But your family tree seems to be alive."
"What?"
"Amara had children and they are all alive and one of them even has a child of their own."
"Really?" smiled Sydney. "I'm a grandfather! And a great grandfather! This is the happiest day of my life!"
Sydney hugged Hazel tightly and Hazel felt quite happy at her deed.
"Sydney, we held our part of the bargain. Now it's your turn." said Regina.
"Yes, of course. What is it you need?" asked Sydney.
"We want to learn how to communicate using mirrors." said Emma.
"That's it? I'm quite sure Regina knows quite a lot about that."
"No, for someone without a mirror." said Regina.
"And you want to fully communicate with them? You can hear each other and see each other?"
"As long as we both can hear, it will be fine but if we could see each other, that would be great." said Regina.
"Alright... I will have it ready for you by six o' clock."
"Good, see you then." said Emma. "Granny's."
"Yes."
