As Kiliah reached the docks to find her Pa, Hook met her a short distance away from the ship.

"Regina and Cora want us to meet them at their place," he told her, walking over to meet her. "Did you find the dagger?"

"No, but I know where it is," Kiliah replied.

Hook nodded. "Good. Just keep it to yourself when we speak to the Evil Queens - we need to appear to be on the same page."

"Aye, I can do that."

They arrived at Regina's house and let themselves in before following the voices upstairs to her bedroom.

"What is it, sweetie?" Cora asked, paying no attention to the pirates as they walked in, and Kiliah noticed the Evil Queen appeared to be crying.

"It's Henry," she replied. "Emma left for New York with Gold, and she took him with her."

"And you didn't stop them?" her mother asked.

"I didn't know until after they had gone."

"I'm sure he's safe," Cora reassured her, gently. "And as soon as Gold's done, Henry will be back."

"But not with me."

"Back?" Hook spoke up. "From where? Where's Rumplestiltskin gone?"

"I don't know," Regina lied.

"Well, if he's left town, then he's powerless," Kiliah pointed out. "He can be killed."

Cora eyed her for a moment. "The moment either of us leave, we lose our magic, and our advantage."

"Our memories?" Kiliah asked.

"None of us were victims of the curse except you," Regina replied. Kiliah clenched her jaw. So not only did the Evil Queen deny her of thirty years with her Pa, but now also the chance to seek her revenge on the one who killed her Ma? "It's not about memories, it's about magic."

"Well, I don't need magic," Hook said from beside her. "I'll go after him alone."

Regina rolled her eyes. "Even if you could find him, do you really think you could just walk to him and stab him in the heart with your sword?"

"Well, I'd prefer my hook."

"You're not going anywhere," Cora replied.

"I deserve my vengeance!"

"You're right," Cora replied smoothly.  "You do, and with the Dark One gone, we can search for the one magical item that could actually kill him here—his dagger."

Kiliah exchanged a knowing look as Cora and Regina moved towards the door and Kiliah grinned. She had the perfect plan.
