I'm a huge lover OUAT and Peter Pan is hot! Decided it be best to make a Peter/OC fic unlike other stories the OC is actually pretty cool and not some bitchy helpless girl anyways enjoy! ;)

Erica Dawson let the gentle rock of the sea lull her to sleep. Moonlight spilled through the cracks of the ship and being the only female on a crew of 27 male pirates it was hard to come by a night like this. It was a night with peace and quiet and not drunken sailors that she'd have to keep an eye on. She was pirate just as well and these were the only family she had known. The sea was always calling to her and this time it was too strong to ignore.

Making sure to be as stealthy as possible she crept up the steps with nothing but a small dagger for protection. The captain of the ship was the one who had rescued her. They told her that she was found floating in a basket among the wreckage of ships. Flames lit up the wood from cannon fire as her crew searched for any more survivors, but there were none. She never knew pirates were so generous but they were. They raised her as one of them and she learned to love the life of a pirate.

Now she found herself looking down at her reflection in the water. She saw a short but muscular girl with long coco colored hair flowing across her chest. A dark blue rag acted as a headband as she tucked a strand behind an ear. Her eyes matched the color of her long sleeve blouse, a royal blue. Black leather pants matched the thick belt around her waist as did the black pointy boots she had laced up tightly.

Being a pirate meant she learned to use her hands quickly, like tying knots. Among that there was stealing, swords fights, hand to hand combat, and using her body as a weapon. It was true that she was a real looker, even if she was 14. Now she found herself wanting more from this. She had established how grateful she was to be taken under the pirate's wing but she wanted more than a life on the run. She wanted a place where she could be who she wanted, a place where she could start over.

"Having trouble, called a voice from below."

Erica quickly looked down to see a girl, or half a girl with a fish tail in the water. She was quite beautiful with long red curls and a shimmering green tail.

"A mermaid!"

"What about it?"

"I never thought I'd see one in person!"

"You mean you believe in us?"

"Of course I do I've listened to the stories."

"Funny humans seem to think they are myth like us."

"I am not so foolish for I have believed in your existence and while I am excited by your presence I can't help wonder why you are here."

"I come to sing when the moon is full and to drown a sailor or too."

Erica felt her hand reach in her pants pocket for the hilt of the dagger, her finger encircled tightly with determination.

"And are you going to see it through."

"I was…"

"What with a sudden change of heart?"

"Well you."

"Me?"

"Yes I thought there were only men on this ship but it seems there is one female."

"Such a high position in this land, I remarked sarcastically."

"Does it ever call to you?"

"What does?"

"The sea."

"Many a day yes, how do you know of this."

"We mermaids are trained to see the lost, the ones who have not ever had a home or a place to belong. This ship is hardly worth the trouble."

"And where do you suppose I go?! Swim away with you into the moonlight?!"

"Now there's an idea."

"What! I was being sarcastic!"

"Well I wasn't. I know you are not satisfied with your current life but what if I told you there was a way out of it."

"Really?"

"Yes you see I've grown quite fond of men and your little family may be just the thing I need."

"I won't let you kill them!"

"Oh heavens no! I simply want to join them, take your place in away."

"And how does that benefit me?!"

"You can take mine, legs for a tail sounds like a fair trade don't you agree."

"A tail?! You mean I would become a—"

"A mermaid yes but only if you wear this, she replied taking out a small leather band with seashells around it."

"This will transform me."

"Yes but the wearer cannot take it off by herself."

"Such a gift may I ask the price?"

"Price no I have told you the trade and the question is do you accept?"

"I…"

"Well we don't have all day, your friends will realize you're missing soon besides the sea is all the home you'll need."

"Is it really all that grand?"

"That and much more."

"What is your name friend?"

"Ariel."

"Mine is Erica."

"Such a pretty name indeed."

"While the flattery is nice I must ask you will you take good care of them."

The mermaid let out a radiant smile across her face. "I promise."

"Good I shall return with my things before I go."

"Please hurry the sun shall rise soon!"

Quickly she ran towards the captain's quarters. Taking a small satchel she filled it with a few priceless jewels, a sharpened dagger, a small vial of a sleeping elixir, and of course a small silver mirror. When she finished packing her things she hurried back on deck.

"I'm ready, she cried."

"Great now hop in the water before they hear the splash."

Without a moment's hesitation she slipped gracefully into the water and let the warms waves rock her. She looked at Ariel to see her out stretched arm, the bracelet for the taking. Quickly she took it and put it firmly on her left wrist. At first there was nothing but then her legs went numb as bubbles started to appear. When it was over she gawked at her sight.

Instead of legs she now had a shimmering dark blue tail that when in the moonlight looked green, to purple, and then blue all at once. Her shirt was replaced by a silver strip covering her breasts so they were not too exposed but still showed a fashionable amount of skin.

"I'm a mermaid!"

"And I'm a human! She exclaimed as she climbed on board."

"Take care Ariel."

"As should you Erica, may you find a new life filled with love."

A quick wave was exchanged before she plummeted down below the surface, her tail moving her fast but elegant through the churning sea. She felt so peaceful and free as she twirled and spun many times.

What luck! I have a chance to start again! Now the girl did say I couldn't take off the bracelet but a small price to pay for happiness.

Suddenly a white light drew her towards a small sand bank. Being the curious fish she was Erica followed the lights glow until it blinded her. Almost as soon as she opened her eyes she felt her body flying forward. She spun faster and faster with no control what so ever. Her screams were just bubbles and she shut her eyes tight expecting to see the worse.
