The Untold Story

Operation Cobra

Mills house
The next morning Cora is looking through the book and she comes across a picture of the queen of hearts. Then she notices there are pages missing. She goes in to Henry's room. "The missing pages, where are they?" She said irritated. "It's an old book stuffs missing. What do you care?"
"I care because you think I'm evil. That hurts me Henry. I'm your grandmother"
"no you're not"
"well than who is. Snow White? I don't like what this book and that woman is doing to you kids. Thankfully both are no longer an issue." Henry raised his eyebrows and looked down at his bag. "What?" Cora says confused. Then the clock tower chimed. She looked up at the window to see the tower, Henry took that as an opportunity to leave.

Downtown
Cora is out side the tower looking at it when Archie and pongo come over. "Hey how about that. I guess those rusty old inners finally starting themselves up." He says happily. Cora swings her head around and sees Emma's yellow bug. "Yes how about that indeed." She said.

Granny's inn
Emma hears a knock at the door. She answered it, and there stood Cora with a big basket of apples. "Did you know the honey crisp tree is the most is the most vigorous and hardy of all apple trees? It can survive temperatures of as low as 40 below and keep growing, it can wither any storm. I have one I have helped Regina grow since she was a little girl, and to this day I have yet to taste anything more delicious than the fruit it offers." She handed one to Emma. "Thanks" she said confused. "I'm sure you'll enjoy them on your way home." "Actually I'm going to stay for a while."
"I'm not sure that's such a good idea. Henry and Mickayla have enough issues they don't need you confusing them."
"With all due respect madam mayor the fact that you have now threatened me twice in the last twenty-four hours makes me want to stay more."
"Since when were apples a threat?"
"I can read between the lines. Sorry I just want to make sure Henry's okay."
"He's fine dear. Any problems he has are being taken care of."
"What does that mean?"
"It means he's in therapy. It's all under control. Take my advice Miss Swan only one of us knows what's best for Henry."
"Yeah I'm starting to think you're right about that."
"It's time for you to go."
"Or what."
"Don't underestimate me Miss Swan."

The Diner
"Here you go" ruby said handing Emma some hot chocolate. "Thank you, but I did not order that." Emma said confused "I know you have an admirer." Emma looked behind her to see graham at a table. Emma walks over to him. "Ahh so you decided to stay." He said.  "Observant, important for a cop." Emma said "it's good news for our tourists business but bad for our local signage." She looks at him. He waits for a moment. "It's a it's a joke. Because you ran over our sign."
"Look the coca was a nice gesture and I am impressed that you guessed that I like cinnamon on my chocolate cause most people don't. But I'm not here to flirt so thank you but no thank you."
"I didn't send it."
"I did." Henry said from a few tables away. "I like cinnamon to."
"Don't you have school?" Emma says confused. "Duh, I'm ten walk me."

Downtown
"So we have to break the curse. Me Mickayla and Finnick can up with a plan, it's called operation cobra." Henry says proudly "cobra? That has nothing to do with fairytales." "Exactly it's a code name to throw the queen off the trail"
"so everyone here is a fairytale character they just don't know it."
"Yup that's the curse time has been frozen. until you got here." As Emma is about to take a bite of an apple "Hey! Where did you get that?" Henry asks "your grandma."
"Don't eat that" Henry grabs the apple and throws it behind them. "Uh ok uhh alright what about there pasts"
"they don't know, it's a haze to them. Ask anyone anything and you'll see"
"so for decades people have been walking around in a haze, not aging, in a cursed town that kept them oblivious?"
"I know you'd get it" Henry says happily "that's why we need you, your the only one that can stop her curse"
"what about my 'sister' you mentioned why can't she?"
"Well when I looked you up it said you didn't have any siblings so maybe when you brake the curse we can find her. right now we have the advantage my grandma doesn't know who your parents are I took out the end the part with you in it" Henry takes the page out of his bag and hands it to her "see your mom is Snow White"
"kid"
"I know the hero never believes at first, if they did it wouldn't be a very good story. If you need proof take them, read them, but what ever you do don't let her see these pages there dangerous, if she finds out who you are then it would be bad."

School
"Got to go but I'll find you later and we can get started. I knew you'd believe me!"
"I never said I did"
"why else would you be here!" Henry yells as he walks over to Mickayla and Finnick. Then Mary Margaret walks over to Emma. "You stayed does the mayor know you're still here?" "Oh she knows. What's her deal. She's not a great people person how did she get elected" "she's been mayor for as long as I can remember. No one's ever been brave enough to run against her. She inspires quite a bit of- well fear I'm afraid I only made it worse by giving Henry that book now he thinks she's the Queen of Hearts." Mary Margaret explains. "Who does he think you are?" Emma asks. "It's silly" "I just got five minutes of silly. Lay it on me."
"Snow White" Mary Margaret says shaking her head. "Who does he think you are?" She asks. "I'm not in the book. Can I ask you a favor? Cora mentioned the kids in therapy. Do you know where I could find the doctor?"
