Oh hey guys! So I've been LOVING this new season of OUAT. Peter Pan is one of my favorite childhood stories, and I'm so excited about this dark spin that's being put on it in the show. So I've decided to expand on that! And the sexual tension going on between Pan and Emma? Uhm, hello? There's no way I can't do something with that.

There's only so far the show is going to go... I'm going to push it further.

(Also the rating is T for now... but that will most likely change.)

The world seemed darker than she remembered. Not that she had ever been a very optimistic or positive person, but hiding the truth - even from herself – had kept her life that much brighter. Now that she had said it out loud, all those doubts and fears and the horrible crushing loneliness she'd been suppressing for years came crashing down on her.

"I'm an orphan…" Emma whispered to the empty jungle around her. The leaves blew in a sudden gust of wind and seemed to agree with her.

Technically she had her parents now. Snow and Charming were sweet, and they were really trying to connect with Emma. But that didn't erase the years of feeling abandoned and alone, being handed off over and over from one foster family to another. How was she supposed to take guidance and wisdom and form a parental bond with people the same age as her? People she had been without for most of her life?

Her strong exterior had been cracking ever since she got to Neverland. Neil's death, Henry being taken from her, and now being forced to say what she'd been too scared to say her entire life… Suddenly Emma didn't feel very strong.

The only thing she could think of to fix this was to find Henry. Henry had become her rock the past couple years. In her mind, forming a bond with him, truly becoming his mother and erasing all thoughts of abandonment within him would make herself okay too. If she could be a mother for Henry, then she'd at least have some part of a family that felt real to her.

Emma pulled her knees to her chest and looked up at the night sky. "I'm coming, Henry. I'll find you."

Pan smirked as he watched Emma from his perch in a tree. As he predicted, little miss Savior was crumbling. When his plan came to fruition, Emma truly would be alone. This was just the beginning. Emma wouldn't be leaving Neverland - Pan never let his toys get away. And what a great plaything Emma would be.

He could see how strong she pretended to be when other people were around. She had fire, to be sure. No one could say Emma didn't have courage. But there was more vulnerability to her than even she realized. And Pan was going to pull all of it out of her – each time more agonizing than the next.

She was a challenge. And Pan never backed down from a challenge. Just like he had big plans for Henry, he had big plans for Emma. This was going to be the most fun he'd had in hundreds of years. One girl, after all, was worth more use than twenty boys.

He longed to jump down to the forest floor and toy with her in her sad state… but there would be time for that later. Better let her dwell on her new found doubts. Pan took one last look at her, grinning as he disappeared into the shadows. "See you later, lost girl…"

This is truly only the beginning. Get ready! And review if you like it so far! See you in the next chapter.
