Looking down at the map in her hands, the young girl narrowed her eyes slightly, her tatty brown locks brushing against her face.
Finally pulling her eyes away, she glanced around at the empty road. Only a sign in sight.

Leroy and the rest of the dwarves had drive toward the town line the next morning, wanting to check if there was any new curses stopping them from leaving.
"Come on. Someone's gotta see what this new curse does. Any volunteers."
"I don't want to turn into a monkey." Happy muttered, looking unsure.
"I like remembering who I am." Another dwarf, Stephen spoke.
"I'm afraid one of us if gonna have to dig down deep. And, find the courage to see what happens and step over that line.
"Not it."
Leroy looked around his brothers, as they all quickly spoke, moving to point at the last one. "Dopey." The silent man looked over as he held his note pad it, deflating a little. "I'll take your silence and bravery, good for you." Leroy, slowly stepped toward his brother, gently pushing him toward the line. "Come on."
Just as he threw his foot o through the barrier, Regina, Brooklyn, David and Mary Margaret had joined them.
"Stop!" The older woman yelled as they climbed out of the car.
"Sorry, sister. We can't stay in, StoryBrooke, as long as, Emma's the Dark One." Leroy gave them all a pissed expression. "Snow Queen. Pan. Trio of Terror. We can handle villains like that. But, Emma.." He walked closer to them all, Brooklyn staying quiet. "She was one of us. She knows how we beat bad guys. Hell, she beat most of them for us. So, tell me. How do we stand a chance against her?"
"Look, if you're dumb enough to cross over that line, then be my guest, Leroy. But, you're making a huge mistake." Brooklyn spoke, the man noticing her slight annoyance.
"Who's gonna save us if we stay? You?" Brooklyn was quiet, Regina stepping forward to defend the woman. "I don't think, the Evil Queen will be much help defending the town, either." He gave them both a knowing look, Regina looking slightly deflated as she watched him turn back to his brother. "Go on. Do it." Dopey didn't say anything as he turned, quickly stepping out of the line, his body curling together in fear. Once he knew he was safe, he turned back, giving them all a thumbs up, even though he couldn't see them. Leroy smirked, nodding smugly at the four. "Now, if you'll excuse us."
