Ashley laid there on the makeshift bed, her heart was racing, her head was pounding. Hook placed a hand on her shoulder and looked up to the group around them, Emma smiled and wrapped her arm over Henry's shoulder, and ushered him out of the cabin, Snow and Regina following behind. Ashley closed her eyes tightly and coughed, letting out a cry of pain, making both Charming and hook jump. "Here lay on your back darling." Hook said pulling on her shoulder to have her lay on her back. Ashley didn't want to, but she was to tired and weak to fight. Charming pulled the blanket up to her chin as Hook rolled her over smiling down at her, he then looked to Hook giving him a nod, and with that he turned to leave. When Charming left the cabin, Ashley looked to Hook, and with a cracked voice she asked,"where are you taking me?" She was shaking and frightened and wanted to get up and wanted to scream she wanted to break down and cry, but most of all, she wanted Peter Pan.
Hook smiled and took his hand off her shoulder,"Story Brooke." He whispered folding his arms across his chest."There we can fix you up, and get you back on your feet." He explained calmly, adjusting the blanket over her, she was still in her loose-fitting clothes she had on when they took her. Ashley blinked a few times and then cleared her throat to speak again,"I...I..." She stopped trying to collect her thoughts, Hook looked at her with a curious look and leaned in,"you what?" He asked her to finish what she was going to say. Ashley shook her head and one hand came out from under the blanket and she squeezed the skin of her nose between her eyes,"I..." She thought for a moment and finished,"I'm in a lot of pain." She whispered her hand sliding to her side over the blanket. Hook nodded,"I bet, here let me take a look." He said lifting that side of the blanket up and over her side. She scooted against the table away from his hand and hook that were reaching towards her side, he may seem nice now, but she still didn't trust him. "Easy, just gonna take a look." Hook whispered as his cold hook slipped under her shirt, grazing her skin as it pulled her shirt up over her wound. He pushed her hand out of his way as she reached down to stop him, and smiled lightly at her to show he wasn't threat. He looked over the old bandages, and let out a grunt as he examined them."Your bandages need to be changed, you're still bleeding it looks like. I think I have some in my desk, just stay there." Hook said softly and as nice as he could sound. He patted her shoulder with his hand as he removed the hook from her shirt and walked across the cabin, behind his desk. He opened a drawer and dug through the contents, as Ashley watched him. He walked back over to her and set a few bandages on the table next to her, and she smiled in a frightened kind of way.
Hook took a bandage and looked at the girl,"can you lay back and hold your shirt for me love?" He asked her as he reached for her side. She slowly laid back on the table and looked up her hands taking her shirt for him, and she felt the tape peel away from her skin as he began to remove the old bandages. Hook began to peel the old tape from her wound, and watched as she cringed in pain. Hook removed the bandages and examined her wound, feeling sick knowing he is who caused her pain in the first place, but then again it was her idea. Ashley leaned up and looked at her side, it was still black and blue all around her wound, and the wound was still bleeding, since Peter never stitched it up. Ashley let her head drop back against the table as Hook quietly replaced the bandages, and he pressed one down to the wound making Ashley jump. "Sorry love." He whispered. Ashley didn't say anything back, she thought she would just let them help her, and she knew Peter would come for her soon enough, or so she hoped.
The boat rocked as Hook finished with the bandages, and taped them to her skin. She had fallen back asleep at the end and Hook covered her with the blanket. He knew she needed to be examined and they would take her to the hospital once back at Story Brooke, as he watched her sleep. In her sleep she saw him, Peter Pan, her Peter Pan, the Peter Pan who was different now. She smiled in her dream as he walked towards her, glowing with a hint of green and yellow, she couldn't wait to feel his embrace again as in her dream he reached up and kissed her like he had right before Tink walked in.
"Peter I'm scared, I want to come home." She whispered to Peter Pan in her dream. "I know my love, I know." Dream Peter responded. She looked him up and down, his glow was beautiful, his smile was perfect, and he held his hand out to her. She smiled at him and let her hand fall into his, it was warm and soft. Peter laughed and pulled her close to him, she could smell him, she could smell the trees and water that surrounded Neverland. He hugged her with one arm and stared at her, they were lifting off the ground. Spinning together slowly in the air Peter reached up with one hand and brushed the hair from Ashley's face, and leaned in towards her."I promise I'll come, I'll rescue you, I'll bring you home." Dream Peter whispered nose to nose with her. Ashley smiled,"I want you here now Peter, please come soon." Ashley whispered back and in her dream she felt the tears in her eyes, she felt them run down her cheeks, and she felt his hand wipe them away."I will, I promise Ashley, I'm coming." He said to her and kissed her forehead. Ashley breathed in the smell of him once more, and as he pulled back from the kiss, his face had changed."Time to wake up Love, I'll be there soon, but time to wake up love." Peter repeated over and over, and Ashley felt his arm was no longer around her. In her dream she looked down at her waist and he had let her go, and he was vanishing but his voice was still clear.
. The sun was starting to rise over Story Brooke and in to short of time Hook was gently shaking the girl by the shoulders."Lass time to wake, we are finally home. Love it's time to wake up, come now, come on love, wake up." He whisper as she slowly opened her eyes and noticed the sun coming into the cabin, she closed her eyes tightly and turned her head to the side. Hook laughed a little and leaned in,"come now love it's time to wake up." Hook said again as he watched Ashley shield her eyes from the incoming light, she rubbed her eyes and tried to sit up. She cringed and growled in pain and Hook was easing her to lay back down, and then Charming walked into the cabin, and as he came down the stairs both Hook and Ashley looked towards him. He smiled as he walked across the cabin and cleared his throat,"I came to see if you needed help getting her off the ship." Charming spoke looking at the girl then to Hook. Hook smiled as Ashley rested on her elbows, and tried to sit up fully. She hissed in pain Hook quickly helping her to sit up, as she moved her legs over the side of the table towards Charming."I'm fine thank you." She cracked as she held her hand over her side and pushed herself off the table to her feet. Hook and Charming watched as her feet touched the floor and she let her legs hold her weight, which didn't last long. She fell forward Charming catching her as she cried out, Hook coming around the table to help as Charming put one of her arms over the back of his neck. Hook took her other side and they held her up together, walking her towards the stairs,"guess you don't." Hook laughed.
As they moved slowly across the top deck to the bridge to get off the ship, others were waiting for them at the bottom of the ramp. Ashley looked over each of the people and started to shake again with fear. There was an older man with some what long hair, and a scruffy was tall and wore a very nice looking suit, hands folded together in front of him, a girl smiling as she stood next to him, her hair was red, her skin was pale, she was shorter than the man. Her smile was sweet, and her eyes were locked onto Ashley. Emma and Henry were hugging a younger man with shorter hair, spiked up and a bit messy, he was Emma's height and a little skinny. Even Regina was hugging a man, he had a barrel of arrows on his back as he smiled at her. Ashley watched every one as Charming and Hook walked her down the ramp, she limped in pain, and Snow met them at the end. "Hi Ashley." Snow said sweetly and Ashley bowed her head. The older man walked up hands folded in front of him still, with a straight posture he stepped in front of Ashley. He looked her up and down, and slowly his hands came apart and he reached his hand for her face, taking her chin in his rough hand pulling it up to look at him. "So this is the girl eh?" He asked, moving her head from side to side, looking at her features, her eyes, lifting her head and pulling it down. Charming looked at the man then to Hook, then back to the man and smiled,"Yes Rumple, it is, and she's hurt." Charming explained. Ashley pulled her chin free from his hand, the man shot her an angry look and then looked at Hook who just smiled, as he held the girl up.
"We are going to take her to the hospital,"Charming started and Ashley jumped in his grasp. "Wait, what?" She snapped loudly looking up making every one around her jump. Emma patted Belle on the shoulder and walked over quickly,"It's okay Ashley, it's okay, just need to get you looked at." She explained and Ashley began to shake her head."No no no." Ashley was almost in tears as she tried to pull from Hook and Charming. Hook and Charming quickly adjusted her and held her tighter, as tears began to form. "Easy it's okay girl, easy." Hook tried to calm her down as Rumple stepped forward and looked her up and down. "I can not believe Peter Pan allowed her to leave." Hook whispered as he looked her over, and instantly Ashley stopped struggling and shot Rumple a look. "He didn't, he doesn't even know I left, though I hope by now he has figured it out." She snapped at the man and struggled again, and Rumple was taken back. "What?" he snapped looking around at everyone and before any one could answer he stepped towards the girl. She struggled a little against her two holders, he reached forward and took her chin in his hand, she yanked it away but he was very quick to catch her. She looked up to him, she was breathing heavy, and he was gripping her chin so tight it almost hurt. Ashley wasn't sure if he growled at her, or at the others, but the man growled loudly, and was staring daggers into Ashley's eyes, waving a hand in front of her face a light gold glow emerged. She coughed and growled, her thoughts began to race, and her vision began to swirl and twist before her. She pulled her chin free one more time, shaking her head, every one watching as she cleared her throat, and tried to pull free. Rumple stepped back a few steps and watched, as Hook and Charming held her on her feet, though almost fell to the ground with her as she soon lost consciousness. "That's better love now isn't it." He whispered.
Rumple was now very mad, and though he wouldn't explain he looked up to Hook. "Pick her up and follow me please." He ordered and Charming and Hook looked at one another for a moment,"NOW!" Rumple snapped, and Hook quickly scooped the girl into his arms, as Charming helped and let her go moving to Snow. Emma held Henry back as Hook raced behind Rumple as they left without a word to the others. Belle was next to Hook brushing the hair from Ashley's face, and smiling at the girl as she walked right next to Hook. "Rumple what is it?" She asked as she looked up to him. Rumple didn't speak, walking along the street towards his shop, Belle raising her eye brows at Hook who looked worried. "Rumple please tell me what is going on." Belle tried again and Rumple stopped, his shop just ahead."Belle they took her, they took something that belongs to Pan, without him knowing." he hissed making Belle and Hook step back."So?" hook chimed in, Rumple turned towards him,"He's going to want it back." Rumple growled leaning in to Hook before turning sharply and walking the rest of the way to his shop.
Rumple unlocked the door and pulled the door open, stepping aside to allow Hook and the girl to enter first, Belle right behind them. Rumple without a word let the door close behind him, and walked behind the counter, looking at his shelves of things, digging through all his treasures, instantly again without saying anything. Hook adjusted the girl and Belle rested her hand on the girl's forehead, watching Rumple move about the store. Hook huffed as he adjusted her higher and called over to Rumple, "what do you want me to do with her?". He smirked when he found the thing he was looking for, and turned to the others holding up a black bracelet cuff. Rumple walked around the counter and towards Hook, and reached out grabbing the girl's wrists. He showed the cuff to both Belle and Hook, then slipped Ashley's wrist through the opening, and it clipped closed around her arm. Hook jumped when he watched it and looked from the cuff to Rumple,"what was that."
"This pirate is a cuff that only I can remove, and that will keep her powers, if she has any, at bay." Rumple explained. Hook gave him a side ways looks,"sooo?" He questioned and Rumple rolled his eyes,"she won't be able to use her powers, if she has any." He grunted. Hook nodded his head as Rumple whispered something to Belle who was standing between them. She nodded and smiled, walking to the far side of the room, grabbing some blanket and sheets off a low shelf. She set them down on something across the room, and waved Hook and Rumple over. Rumple pointed Hook towards a small bed, Belle was laying some sheets over the top of it, smiling like this was a sleep over. "She can rest there, I'll take a look at her wounds, and we can figure out what to do after she wakes." Rumple explained. Hook slowly moved forward, staring at Rumple over his shoulder as he knelt in front of the bed, Belle helping him to lay the girl on top of it. Belle adjusted her arms at her side, and rubbed her hair from her face, then pulled the blanket up over her body to her chin as Hook stood and stepped back.
"When will she wake?" Hook asked as Rumple watched Belle, he shrugged,"a few hours maybe, enough time to get everyone together, something I need to tell them." Belle looked at the girl and then to Hook and Rumple, as she stood up next to Rumple."Come let's go and find them, this is important." Rumple announced and headed out of the store. "Umm Rumple, can you just tell me later,I..." Rumple turned and faced Belle who was rubbing her hands together with a worried expression."What is it Belle?" rumple stepped towards her worried something was wrong, and she looked over her shoulder at the girl then back to him."What if she wakes up and no one is here, she will be frightened." Belle blurted out and Rumple rolled his eyes,"Belle." He started but Belle knelt next to the girl and set her hand on the girl's shoulder,"please?" Belle asked and Hook laughed, covering his mouth with his hand and turning away as Rumple glared over at him. "Fine, but do not leave her, and if anything happens call me, I shouldn't be long." Rumple growled then turned and walked towards the door, smacking the back of the pirate's head first, and Belle heard the bell over the door ding to signal they had left.
