AN: Here is my first chapter of my new story. I own nothing. Enjoy the story.
Chapter 1: On the Jolly Roger
Emma Swan was nervously pacing below deck of the Jolly Roger thinking about her son. Henry was off somewhere in Neverland, and he was so far away from her alone. Hook, Regina, Rumple and her parents set off to Neverland with her to find the boy, but she felt so alone now. She didn't know if her son was okay or what they had planned for him by bringing him here.
Emma was left alone to her thoughts and it was driving her insane. She had lost Neal again, she just took a huge step and called her parents Mom and Dad for the first time, and Henry had been kidnapped and brought to Neverland. She was doing push-ups as a way to distract herself and then she heard someone enter the room, figuring it was just Hook she ignored it till he started talking.
"So letting off some stress?" Rumple said
Emma got up and took a seat in a chair close to where Rumple stood.
"I thought you were Hook." Emma said
"Thankfully I am not. Your parents are looking for you." Rumple said
"Yeah, I think I might just sit here for a while." Emma sighed
"Are you alright?" Rumple asked her
"No. Neal is gone again, and the last thing we said to each other was I love you, and Henry is missing and I have no way of knowing if he is alive." Emma ranted
"You would know if he were not alive. You and Henry have a special bond as most parents do with their children." Rumple said
"Did you have that connection with Neal?" Emma asked
"Yes. That is why I have a feeling he is not truly gone, maybe it is just me being optimistic but I have a feeling that he is just lost." Rumple explained
"Why are you being so nice?" Emma asked
"I am capable of it believe it or not. I think that is time another side of me got through to everybody, the side of me that is nice." He answered
"Well I like this side of you. This is the first real conversation we have had since we met, and I really kind of like it." Emma said
"Good. I want to let you know I will do whatever necessary to find Henry. I will make sure you all make it home safely." Rumple said seriously
"Thank you." Emma said softly
Emma got up and hugged Rumple, which surprised them both but they hugged none the less. Emma felt something a bit strange, but she liked it. Rumple had a feeling that things were going to change a lot while they were exploring Neverland, and he knew a lot of his past would come up on this adventure. Strangely he had a feeling that if Emma was there with him he wouldn't feel so bad about it. As they were hugging they heard from upstairs that they had made it to the island and it was time to head off to find Henry.
