Enchanted Forest - Mill's Castle (Character's Past)
A young Regina was looking out of the window in their castle when her mother came in.
"What's this?" Cora asked
She was looking at the gift wrapped up.
"I don't know a gift, maybe it's a portrait." Regina said
Cora uses her magic to open the gift.
"Oh a looking-glass not nearly as personal. I wonder sometimes if the people really love you." Cora said
"I'm doing my best mother." Regina said
"Oh honey I'm sorry come here." Cora said
She grabs Regina's arm and brings her towards the glass.
"Look at you with your whole life ahead of you and it's going to be better than you can imagine." Cora said
Cora stands in front of Regina.
"The King's not a strong man, the kingdom will be yours. Raise the tributes, form a personal guard, let everyone know where the new power lies and you'll hold the hearts of your people in your hands." Cora said
Regina turns away.
"Is that what you would do mother?" Regina asked
"That's exactly what I would do." Cora said
"Well the thing is I don't want to be you." Regina said
Regina turns around to use her magic on her mother but gets trapped.
"What are you doing? You think it's that easy to get rid of me? You're stuck with me forever darling because I'm your mother and I know best." Cora said
Regina uses all her anger and she uses her magic to push her mother through the looking glass.

Cora was standing next to a guy named Strucker. She was watching the young boy fighting the other soldiers.
"That one." Cora pointed out, "What's his name?"
"We call him Spider." Strucker said
"Tell me about him." Cora demanded
"Natasha Romanoff gave birth to him and she left him here. We've been training him ever since he was four years old. He's fifteen now." Strucker said
Who's his father?" Cora asked
"The Winter Soldier otherwise known as Sergeant Barnes." Strucker said
Cora turns Strucker.
"The Avengers are coming here to take the scepter. Have them bring me Tony Stark but I want him alive and unscathed. If he is hurt in any way I will kill everyone in this room starting with you." Cora said
Strucker nods his head.
"Bring me the Spider while you're at it." She said
Cora smiles and walks away.
