~A Long Hard Road~

Prologue

"Wait, Peter! Stop!" Wendy screamed as Peter Pan ripped Henry's heart out of his chest. He turned to look at the disheveled girl running up the stairs towards him.

"I can't Wendy, you know that," Pan said, " You know I need the heart of the Truest Believer to live. Just look at the hourglass, I only have a few more minutes until I die." Wendy turned to look at the hourglass, and saw that Peter was right. There was very little time left until he… She could not even bring herself to even think it.

"Give Henry his heart back!"

"Or what? You can't do anything to stop me and there is no other way!"

"But I know another way." Peter turned with a mask of confusion on his face.

"How?"

Wendy took in a deep breath and looked Peter in the eye.

"I'll give you my heart."
