Against her will, Amy felt herself walking back to the mayor. She would be fine being a ‘poor lost human’. She walked straight up to the smirking woman and laughed in her face. “You’re my only way out of here?” She asked, the question bringing a new round of laughter. “For all of this power you keep bragging about, you really don’t know anything at all, do you? Well not much, any way. Nothing beyond the little bubble you’ve built for yourself. You need me for this so-called favour. I don’t need you for /anything/. Not to pay for your rubbish sign, and certainly not to get out of this place.” Her last words were accompanied by a gesture to her surroundings. 

She clenched her fist, refraining from slapping the other woman, she did still have her heart, however that was working. “Okay, let me say this again, since you are obviously too stupid to get it through your thick head the first time. I. Am. Not. Your. Minion. I am not your anything. You do not get to order me around as you please.” She sneered. “Yeah, you have my heart. But I have something better than your little two bit tricks.” She smirked, crossing her arms. “And they are much more powerful than you will ever be.”

Regina’s snicker now deepened into a full fledged cackle as she threw back her head and continued into the maze. What a naive little minion. Regina couldn’t wait until the redhead discovered that the Queen of Hearts was her mother. Of course she had told Amy that her mother had left something in Wonderland, but she hadn’t filled her in on all of the details. At least not yet.  And, she really couldn’t wait to see the look on the on Amy’s face when she discovered, if she hadn’t already, that she was in fact the Evil Queen, the Evil Queen from the endearing fairy tale apparently center around the dreadful Snow White. “Now, now, dear. Don’t you know when you are dealing with royalty? You should learn your manners, minion?” she drawled, hinting at her title as she turned back to Amy and stopped in her tracks. 

She tried to refrain from rolling her eyes at the redhead as she spoke. Amy’s complaints were far too pedestrian for a queen, so Regina brushed off her threat and simply continued to smirk at her as her eyes harshened, almost glaring at Amy. “Do you not understand that I could simply crush this heart and your precious little life would be over?” she exclaimed, crossing her arms over her chest as she decided to lead them once more through the maze, this time time with more ferver. “Now, keep quiet. We don’t know what might be lurking in this maze.”
