Leaning back in her chair Emma drank her hot chocolate, which she had bought at Granny's. She had walked Henry to school this morning, and then went to her office, not knowing what else to do. After a couple of hours working away the administrations, she grew bored of it and fetched some delicious hot chocolate with cinnamon sprinkles by Granny's. Now she sat and waited on a call or visitor. She took a sip of the chocolate and sighed, waiting for someone to need her.

Jezabel stood silently outside the Sheriffs station. She'd never really been too... fond of it, being as how many times Graham had hauled her butt in and out of the cell, but regardless she was curious about this new Sheriff. The one who had ruffled Regina's feathers, a feat not easily accomplished. Hesitant, she opened the door to the Sheriffs office. Having no apparent purpose she stood there dumbly for a moment before composing herself back into her usual cocky persona. Just another deception among many she used to guard herself...

The door creaked as it opened and Emma turned her attention to the unexpected guest. It was a woman who Emma had never seen and she was immediately curious about her. She stood up and walked toward the woman in the doorway. "Good morning, can I help you?"

Jezabel pulled up a chair and grinned "Oh, I just wanted to say 'Hi', seeing as how you're the new sherifff" She turned the chair around and sat leaning against the back crossing her arms over the top. "Couldn't hurt to be on good terms with the sheriff right?"

Emma nodded and rested her hands on her desk. "I guess. It won't help you much when you decide to pay me another visit, from the other side of those bars, that is." Emma's eyes pointed to the cell doors. "Just kidding, you are better off staying on my side instead of lurching with the enemy."

"Heh heh, right..." Jezabel avoided looking at the tiny cell, it seemed to bring back one to many bad memories. "So..." There was this question buzzing in the back of her skull, but she was afraid to ask...

Emma noticed the woman still hadn't given her name, so she asked. "who are you? What did you really wanted to tell me?" she didn't believe the woman had taken all the trouble to come here just to say hi.

"Ha! Oh right!" Jezabel laughed trying to shake off the nerves "I'm Jezabel Williams!" She extended her hand out "I'm not use to people asking me for my name... usually my reputation precedes me. Not always a good thing, but hey, it gets those awkward introductions out of the way right?"

Emma shook her hand and smiled softly. "that's an unique name you got. I'm sheriff Swan, but you can call me Emma. I must admit i've not heard of you before.. so far goes your reputation i guess.." Emma noticed the girl was hiding something from her and frowned. she also had noticed the woman hadn't answered her question. not really sure where this conversation was leading to, she asked, "are you okay? do you need my help?"

"Thank you, I'm... Okay, I mean, better than I was before that's for certain..." Jezabel Smiled sensing the genuine concern in Emma's voice. She glanced out the window for a moment determining on whether or not she should tell her what the real issue was. "it's not much you can really help me with... I..." Something occurred to Jezabel, an idea "Actually, could you do a... I don't know, a background check on someone for me? Or maybe just a call?"

Leaning back in her chair, Emma pondered about the question. Everyone knew each other in this little town, didn't they? Then why search for someone? At last she said, "Sure, but first, tell me who and why."

Jezabel stared out the window and sighed, this was never an easy thing to explain. She tried to give a quiet laugh or something to lighten the mood, but was pretty unsuccessful.
"it's actually kind of funny, see we're kind of in the same boat. You with your son and Madame Mayor, then me with my sister and my Uncle. Right now my Uncle has custody of my sister, since her mother died," she paused for a moment trying to figure out how to say what she was about to explain to the sheriff "and me being, well, me, he doesn't allow me a whole lot of contact with my sister. Which honestly, I get that. I really do, but I'm afraid... I've heard some things, I think he might be hurting my sister. All I want is just somebody to go check it out for me"

Emma frowned at the mention of Henry. They were really in the same boat. Jezabel only wanted the best for her sister, while Emma only wanted the best for Henry. "Got a name for me?" asked Emma, as she searched for a pen and paper to the data to write. She had seen that Jezabel was not lying, and decided that it would not hurt to check the man's background. And then she could do Jezabel's too.

'Is she really going to help me?' Jezabel thought to herself...
"uh, Theodore. Theodore Williams" she replied a little shocked. Emma seemed like she actually wanted to help her, something that only a few people ever could truly say.

"Theodore Williams.." she murmured while writing it down. "Alright, I will see what I can do." seeing Jezabel's face, she went on. "Don't look so surprised! You said it yourself! You and I have something in common. I will see if he does anything to your sister and if he does.. well, you may need to decorate a room for your sis at your home." Emma smiled before looking at Jezabel with a Very serious face. "But if he's kind to her and doesn't do anything illegal, I'm afraid there's not much more I can do."
