Hello everyone! I know I probably shouldn't have, but I created this story because the ideas just kept running through my head! So this is my 4th story on this site, but this is my first Once Upon A Time story! I hope you like this as much as I do! And feel free to check out my other stories which are TVD and Teen Wolf! I don't own OUAT, only my OC!


The cries of the Lost Boys woke Emma up from her sleep. She grabbed her sword and tried to wake her companions, but to no avail. Emma then went to follow the cries, but she turned around when she heard a voice, "You hear that too." The savior whipped her gaze to a teenage boy.

"You're Emma, right? I wonder why they can't hear the crying." He addressed her, and she asked, "Who are you?" The boy chuckled darkly and answered, "Oh, did I forget to introduce myself? I'm Peter, Peter Pan." At that name, Emma threw Peter into the tree and stuck her sword by his neck.

"Where's Henry?" She demanded, and he brushed off the question, "You have fire, I like fire." "Where is my son?" Emma ordered, and Peter told, "Henry's still alive if that's what you're worried about." "Why the hell did you take him?" Emma questioned the boy, who answered, "He's a very special boy, Emma."

Emma then said, "I know, that doesn't answer my question. What do you want with him?" Peter ignored what she said again and spoke, "I came here to see what I was up against, the savior, I've got to say I'm not disappointed." "What are you gonna say now? You gonna tell me how I'm not gonna see Henry again?" She retorted, her sword still perched up against his neck.

"No, I'm here to help you find him. I'll give you a map." He told, and she backed away from him. Peter dug the map from his shirt pocket and said, "A map that will lead you straight to your son." "If this is some kind of trap..." Emma started, and Peter scoffed, "I may not be the most well behaved boy op the island, but I always keep my promises. An old friend of mine enchanted this map, the path to find Henry is on this parchment."

"Why are you giving it to me?" Emma asked him, and Peter replied, "See it's not about finding Henry, it's about how you find him. Emma, you are the only one who can." She then took the parchment from his hands and opened the map. "It's blank." "Like I said, an old friend enchanted it. You will only be able to read that map when you stop denying who you really are."


"Don't eat the blue ones." Peter Pan came up from behind Emma, who was picking berries. He then went on as she went back to the bush, "Congratulations, you did it, orphan. You don't mind if I call you a Lost Girl do you? There was only one other, so you should feel special." "Call me what you like. It won't stop me from finding Henry." Emma responded, wondering who the other Lost Girl was.

Pan chuckled and stated, "Oh, I'm counting on that. There's a reason I tested you." "Really?" She challenged, still looking at the fruit. "You still haven't forgiven your parents for abandoning you. Don't deny it, you haven't. That's good, really good. Because when you find Henry, you'll understand him." Emma finally turned to him and questioned, "What's that supposed to mean?"

"He hasn't forgiven you either. By the time you get to him, he'll never want to leave this island." Peter spoke, and Emma picked up her sword and muttered, "We'll see." "And as for you, Emma...when you're finished you won't just feel like an orphan, you'll be one." Emma walked away from him with a load of questions in her mind.


Neal rummaged through his father's secret cabinet. "I don't need a horse, I need a portal. A way to create a portal." He explained to Robin Hood and Mulan. "Why don't you calm down and tell me what the problem is, perhaps I can assist." Robin Hood suggested, and Neal sighed, "Henry's trapped in Neverland with Peter Pan who is hands down the nastiest person I've ever met."

"I saw Emma in that ball, not Henry." Mulan contested, and Neal replied, "Listen, I was in Neverland. Pan was looking for a boy, a specific boy. A girl there drew his face on a piece of paper and prophesied him to be the Truest Believer." "And you believe that to be Henry." Mulan said, and Neal nodded, "It has to be, that's the only reason Emma would be in Neverland. Help me look, lots of things make portals: beans, hats, magic mirrors, some kind of ashes, ruby slippers."

He then stopped his motions and stated, "She has to find her. Emma has to find her." Mulan then gave him a curious glance, "Who?" Neal then knocked something over and was about to speak when a man walked in, "What was that?" "Stand down Little John, we're fine." Robin said, and that seemed to calm Little John down.

A little boy then ran to Robin Hood, who picked him up. "Who's this?" Neal asked, with a smile on his face, "Merry Men come in all sizes. This is my son, Roland." He then got an idea, "I know how to get to Neverland, I know how to get to Henry."


The group was fighting on whether or not to use magic. "Pan will have shields against magic. I feel as though such attempts would end in your death, and more importantly mine. Which is why we're walking." Hook spoke, and Regina asked, "Well then what's your idea? How are we going to find it?" He then had a stroke of genius, as he would say, and he told, "By using someone he trusts."

"Who? Because I guess he certainly doesn't trust you." Charming said, and Hook revealed, "There was word when I was here of a girl on the island." "Wendy?" Emma asked, and Hook shook his head, "No, Wendy was after her, shortly after. She was the only one he truly trusted, but I heard she escaped. But, there was a fairy who lived here when I was about. She might still be on the island. She'll be an inside source, knows all about the camp, can get us in. She might even have some pixie dust left, perhaps we could fly in."

Emma then turned to him, "You mean fairy dust?" "No, pixie dust. It's stronger, like nuclear fairy dust." Charming explained, and Emma realized, "Wait, a fairy... Tinkerbell?" "You know her?" Hook asked, and Emma responded, "About every kid in the world knows her." "It's a bad idea." Regina stated, making them all look at her. "Mark my words, this Tinkerbell is not going to save us." Regina stated.


She watched the Lost Boys as they all beckoned Henry to shot the poison arrow at Felix. She knew Henry didn't actually want to do it, but Pan's influence would overpower him, it always did. The boys waited in anticipation as Henry lined up the shot. She knew what he was going to do even before Henry did. Henry aimed to crossbow at Peter and shot it, but Peter caught the arrow before it hit him.

The Lost Boys cheered and clapped at Henry, and Pan spoke, "I told you it was exhilarating. Now, c'mon, I have something to show you."

She then left and trecked through the jungle to the treehouse. She stopped when she heard voices and sensed magic, "C'mon up." She knew that voice from her visions. She just decided to watch the group go through her and Tinkerbell's treehouse. "Where would it be?" Charming asked, and Hook replied, "She wouldn't leave dust just lying around, mate. It's not here, mate, I promise. I'm sorry."

Emma then climbed up the ladder and spoke, "It's pretty bare. It reminds me of someplace." Snow White then said, "You'd think a treehouse would be more cheery." "Where I used to live, that's it." Emma stated to herself, and she watched as they all went through her "home". "Because it's just a place to sleep." Snow realized, and Emma asked, "What would you know about that?"

"I didn't always have a canopy bed in a palace, I had a place like this too, once." She told her daughter, who questioned, "You did?" "I had a tree stump when I was running from the queen. Believe it or not, I understand this Tinkerbell. The real question is why is there a ladder, fairies have wings." She informed Emma, and that was when Charming noticed something, "Hey, guys. There's another hammock over here. There's someone else living here."

They all went over and checked it out while she still watched in the shadows. "That means someone else is running." Emma stated, and Snow sighed, "Well there's the answer to the ladder question." Charming then looked over to Tinkerbell's stuff, "Guys, I found something." Snow recognized it immediately, "That's Regina's. How did it get here?"

"She must have been tracking us, watching Regina." Emma said, and Snow started, "But if she's been watching her..." "Then we're in the wrong place." Hook concluded.


"It's about time you woke up. I've been looking forward to this moment for a long time." Tinkerbell said to Regina. "Look, you don't know why I'm here.." Regina was cut off by Tinkerbell, "I know exactly why you're here. You're trying to find your son." "I take it by your restraints that you're not helping." Regina stated, and Tinkerbell snapped, "Hell no. You're the last person I'd ever help after you burned me. But my friend will."

Regina then scoffed, "Burned you? You're the one who interfered in my life." "And threw away my own in the process." Tink argued, and then Regina questioned, "So what do you want from me? To kill me? You think it's that easy? Whatever you knocked me out with, I can tell it's not magic. Maybe poppies, but they're wearing off." "My friend wouldn't help me in killing you." Tinkerbell responded.

"And since you had to resort to that, it only means one thing. You don't have magic, but I do." Regina spoke and took off her restraints. Tinkerbell then threateningly placed her arrow near Regina's neck, "Yeah, I know, but even your magic can't stop this. Ever hear of dreamshade?" "Yes." Regina answered warily and Tink said, "Good."

"How the hell did you get like this?" Regina asked her, and Tinkerbell replied, "I met you." Regina nodded and spoke, "Okay, you want to kill me? I can make it easier." She then proceeded to rip her own heart out. "You want to kill me? Well don't let the poison do it, you should do it. Go ahead, crush it." Tinkerbell then snapped, "You think I won't take it." "No, I'm counting on it. Show me who you are, Tinkerbell." Regina said menacingly, and Tink responded, "Gladly."

Tinkerbell squeezed the Evil Queen's heart for a second, earning a groan from Regina. "Do you know what you cost me?" "You're wings." Regina realized, and the former fairy questioned, "Why?" "Why what? Why did I hand over my heart?" Regina asked, and Tink turned back and yelled, "No, why did you lie? Because I've been over it a million times and that spell worked. You never went in, it's the only explanation. Why couldn't you just go through that door and meet your soulmate? Was being happy such a terrible fate?"

"Yes, yes it was. You're right, I never went in. I was afraid, I didn't-you said I could let go of the anger that was wearing me down. And suddenly it felt like without it, I would just fly away. That anger was all I had, what would I be without it?" She admitted, and Tinkerbell felt sorry for her and said, "Happy." Regina shook her head and replied, "Weak."

As Regina showed her what Tinks future might hold if she killed her, she remembered what he friend said to her, "Keep your heart pure." Regina then spoke, "Kill me or act like the fairy you are." "You said I was a terrible fairy." Tink argued, and Regina countered, "Then prove me wrong, and prove to your friend that you can help us. Pick hope over anger, choose love and help me get my son back."

"You love your son?" She asked Regina, who answered, "Very much. With Henry, I finally got something right. Don't you wanna be able to say the same thing? Tell your friend that you did the right thing." Tinkerbell shook her head and said, "It's too late for me." "Only if you kill me." Regina replied, and Tink walked up to her, "I won't kill you, but I won't help you either. Besides, it's probably too late, he's been with him too long. Only with her help, will you might have a chance." Tink handed Regina her heart and walked away.


Pan smiled his charming smile at Henry and spoke, "Look at the fun they're having. the thing of this place, Henry, is that no one ever tells you no. you can do anything you want." The two sat on a log, and Henry asked, "Do they ever hurt themselves?" "All the time. At one time, we had four boys with missing fingers. Cost of the game, they didn't mind." Peter said, and Henry questioned, "We?"

Peter shrugged and answered vaguely, "The two of us." Henry brushed it off and admitted, "I don't belong here." "Actually, you do. We've been waiting for you a very long time, Henry, long before you were even born." Pan told him, and Henry shook his head, "I don't believe that." "You should. This place runs on imagination, on belief, but your world stopped believing. Magic is dying Henry, and you need to save it."

"In my world, you mean." Henry guessed, and Pan clarified, "In every world, you need to bring it back. That's your destiny, to bring back magic, to be the savior." "My mom, Emma, is the savior, not me." Henry justified, and the older boy scoffed, "She broke some curse, yeah. Oh, I know more than you think. An old friend of mine told me things that were to happen, but I digress. What if breaking the curse wasn't what made her the savior? What if having you was? Think about it, you're descendant from the greatest of light and of dark. what, did you think it was a coincidence that the spawn of the dark one met your mother? You were created for a reason, and I can help you find it."

"So you think I'm supposed to save magic?" Henry asked, and Peter spoke excitedly, "I don't think, I believe. Remember I said I had something to show you. Here, I've had this for a very long time, long before you were even thought of. That old friend of mine drew it. Take a look and you'll know why I'm so sure you're the hero magic has been waiting for."

Henry took it from Peter, and when Peter got up and started to walk away, Henry threw it behind the log. "I don't believe you." He stated to Pan, who laughed and said, "You remind me of your father."


Tinkerbell walked out of the cave with a clear mind when suddenly, four people came out with weapons pointed at her. She put up her hands in surrender, and Emma ordered, "Where is Regina?" "Who the hell are you?" Tink asked, and Emma snapped, "A pissed off mother, where is she?" After a moment of silence, Regina came out, "I'm fine."

Another figure then came out of the shadows with a sword in their hand, "Do you mind lowering those? You may stick her, but I'll make sure you go down with her." The figure looked towards Tink who nodded for her to take off her hood. "So this is your friend." Regina acknowledged her, and then added, "But she's just a teenager."

"I'm 16 thank you very much." She stated, and Hook asked, "But are they going to help us?" "Well, look who the Queen dragged in. Hello Hook." Tink spoke, and Hook said, "Tinkerbell...and you are?" "Dorothy." The girl stated, and Emma put a hand up, "Wait, Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz?" She nodded and smiled, "Ah, so you've heard of me, that's good."

"Interrupting this little conversation, Tinkerbell's not going to help us, but Dorothy here will." Regina told, and Emma questioned, "Why not?" "Tink, after all we've been through together, a little assistance." Hook pointed towards the group, and Regina revealed, "Tinkerbell doesn't have any magic." "No pixie dust?" Charming asked, and Regina answered, "Not even her wings."

Emma then spoke, "How?" It was Tink who told next, "I guess people just stopped believing in me." Dorothy then added, "That's not true, I believe in you, and so does Snow, right Snow?" Snow nodded, but was curious as to how Dorothy knew her. "And even if I wanted to, he's too powerful." The fairy told them, and Snow asked, "But you know where his camp is?"

"Sure, but it won't do you a bit of good." She retorted, and Dorothy responded, "Let them be the judge of that, Tink. I think it is pretty powerful information, and I've managed to escape with it." Emma and Snow asked them both, "Does he trust you?" "Can you get us inside his compound?" tink crossed her arms and gave Dorothy a look that said 'shut your mouth'. "Maybe, why should I help you?"

"Just get us inside and we can take care of things from there." Emma stated, and Tinkerbell bargained, "And what's in it for us? Other than a death sentence from Pan gets Dorothy spotted and you're gone with your boy?" "You can come with us, both of you." Emma pitched, and this seemed to light something within the girls. "That's right, a home. That is what you want, isn't it?"

Dorothy knew Snow was manipulating them, and she put on a stern face as Tinkerbell was vulnerable. "Okay, listen closely. Pan trusts me, he'll let me in. And maybe, just maybe, I'll leave a way open for you, but you've only got one shot. so you've better got a good plan." Tink spoke, and Emma thanked her.

They then made our way to their camp and settled in. Regina and Tink talked next to the tree while Emma, Hook, Dorothy, Charming, and Snow sat by the fire. They all wanted to know about Dorothy, "So, how'd you get here? The movie ended when you woke up from a dream in Kansas." Emma told her, and Dorothy laughed. "It's a long story. I wasn't even supposed to be in your world in the first place. My mom's ex killed her, and he sent me into your world to get revenge on my dad. Like Emma, I'm the product of true love, which he didn't like. I was sent to Kansas where I was in the foster system most of my life. I was just adopted by these farmers when the tornado happened."

"Who are your parents? Your face seems familiar." Hook stated, and Dorothy went to say something, but Tinkerbell interrupted, "She better seem familiar, she's your daughter for pixie's sake!"
