I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING

Prologue

They all held tightly on the ropes in their hands, the ship was moving quickly through the portal. A wave of seawater washed over them, they had reached the surface of Neverland. Regina let go of the rope in her hand and ran her fingers through her wet hair. She around her, Charming and Snow were standing together, Charming's arms safely wrapped around his wife. Regina's gaze moved further, she spotted Hook sitting on a barrel; all he did was stare straight ahead, not looking at anyone or anything. Emma was standing next to Hook, she looked determined, her arms crossed, feet safely set on the ground.

A familiar voice drew Regina's attention away. "Not feeling well Madam Mayor?" It was Rumplestiltskin. Regina turned around and met his eyes. "What's with the sudden concern?" she asked. He just looked at her for a moment, before smirking, and answering: "Well, dearie, we are all in the same boat, or ship, literally". He kept on smirking and walked away. Regina didn't give it much thought, and after all, he was right. They were all stuck together on the same ship with the same mission; to get Henry back.

Night was falling; the sun had just set below the sea line. It was truly a beautiful sight. The view was the last thing on Regina's mind right now. She was standing on the quarterdeck leaning towards the railing. All she could think of was Henry. Where was he, was he injured, was he even alive? All the questions were spiraling through her mind. She felt a sudden warmth next to her; it was Snow. Regina discreetly rolled her eyes. Although she didn't feel the same hate now than before, she really didn't need for anyone to be talking to her now, especially not Snow. "We are going to find him you know". She said looking at Regina, and giving her hand a reassuring squeeze. "Yes, of course, with the "I will always find you" crap." Regina said sarcastically. Regina would never admit it, but the statement was comforting to hear. Snow gently stroked Regina's back before going down to the lower deck, it would be best to try to get some sleep; tomorrow was going to be a long day.
