Hey guys! I really hope you enjoyed the first chapter ! :)
Here goes the second!
MIA's P.O.V
I had been sleeping on that hard ground for almost 4 hours now. I slowly lifted my face from the ground and rubbed it with my hand. Damn, it felt so sore after so many hours of sharp stones poking it. Wait, stones?
"Shit!" was all a managed to say.
Well there was nothing else to say about my situation, right? I was stranded on an island who knows where, oh, don't forget the fact that a few hours ago I had woken up somewhere deep in the ocean, I had found out I could breath underwater and I had a lovely swim with a freaking mermaid. What was it that she had said before abandoning me in a freaking storm? Oh yeah, "Save us". What was that even supposed to mean?! The hell I'm going to save her after she left me to die in the middle of the ocean. Pfft, and I had thought she had been nice.
" okay, focus!"
I carefully stood on my feet and thanked the fact that my legs actually responded this time. I took a quick glance at my surroundings. It's was night time, and a bright full moon shone over the vast ocean. In front of me stood a terrifying dark jungle, with thousands of creepy sounds coming from the inside.
Should I go in there?
I kind of felt scared to leave the safety of the sea, I mean, beach. Gosh, what was with me?
Frustrated, I decided to make my way into the jungle.
Oh. My. God. I had never, ever, been so jumpy and frightened in my whole life! The slightest rustle of leaves or the naïve whistle of the wind was enough to release the inner ninja I had inside. To every sound I jumped and pointed my hands aggressively with my knees slightly bent.
"S-show yourself scary thing , I-I'm not scared at all" I cautiously said, afraid that something or someone might hear. 'Cause come on, how awkward would it be if a group of hot teenage boys suddenly appeared from behind a bush and laughed at my 'I'm gonna shit myself ' face?
As if on queue, I heard the faint sound of footsteps somewhere in front of me. I did an incredibly cool sideflip and hid in a bush. Okay, maybe I didn't do the sideflip. Anyways, I stood there completely frozen, with my heart beating megafast. Had I just imagined it? The footsteps I mean. Almost instantly I heard the sound of voices. My heart skipped a beat. I had found human beings! Without even thinking a jumped out of the bush and ran towards the voices. I'm getting out of this fucking island!
I could hear the voices saying something like "Something's out there!" but I was too excited to even bother to say something like " Hey, it's just me!"
Nearly there I told myself.
Immediately I came to a clearing and found a group of not so friendly adults pointing deadly weapons at me. The smile on my face was immediately replaced by a confused frown.
" Who are you?" demanded a young woman, with long blonde hair and a sharp sword.
"I-I'm Mia" was all I managed to say, still too confused by the situation. Why were they pointing those deadly things at me? It's not like I could kill them or something!
"You're a girl!" remarked a man with short black hair, and matching messy short beard .
" No shit!" I said. I woman with short black hair with arrow and bow flinched at my swearing. They all lowered their weapons and exchanged confused expressions. Except the woman at the far right who didn't care less, she was simply just standing there and staring at me. I lifted my eyebrows
"Em, sorry. It's just that there aren't many girls here in neverland" said the blonde woman.
Wait.
"N-neverland?" I gasped. Were these guys on drugs? Oh yeah, I forgot that I had also experienced some … interesting things.
"As in… Peter pan?"
"Yes, as in peter pan" stated the I-don't-care lady, still eyeing me with her arms folded
" Oh " was all I said. Again, the seven exchanged confused looks before the woman with the arrows said:
"You're taking this way too good"
I chuckled
"Well, over the past couple of hours some strange things have happened, and to be honest, I'm not surprised" I wasn't quite trusting them yet since I had only just met them. By no means was I telling them about … my new friend.
"How old are you sweetheart?" asked a man who I hadn't noticed before.
He had greasy dark hair and was wearing a quite horrid crocodile skin vest. He was staring at me as if trying to read me, curiousity written all over his expression, with a glint of hope.
"16, sir." Sir!? I mentally wanted to slap myself.
Unexpectedly, him and the I-don't-care lady widened their eyes at my response and almost immediately exchanged knowing looks. Meanwhile the others seemed to be as confused as I was, though no one asked what was going on.
"She's still pure, I can sense it" The crocodile man nodded at the lady, who turned to look at me.
"What do you mean she's still pure?"
"That she's still a virgin." Snapped the I-don't-care lady, who I'm gonna rename as bitch lady. I blushed straight away, not used to those kind of comments. How dare she say that out loud, those are private things. And most importantly; how the hell did she know?
"I…" I struggled to say something.
"where the hell did that come from? What do you mean by she's still a… pure" Stated the guy next to the woman with arrows, who was clinging affectionately on.
"Yeah! What the hell does that have to do with you!" I yelled.
The crocodile man ignored me and faced the guy with the sword.
"Well prince, she's your ticket to Storybrooke. If you wan't to get there alive of course." Replied the croco-man. A few gasps were heard from the crowd. I just stood there with my mouth hung open, stuttering as what to say next. Should I come with a smart come-back? As if reading my mind the woman with blonde hair glared at me and discreetly shook her head, addressing me to stay quite. So I did.
"Keep going." Urged the prince, so called by croco-man.
"Well." He continued "For you to live a happy life in storybrooke, you need to get rid of that curse you have now that you have drank from the island's water" he started walking.
"For you to do that, I need to prepare a potion to get rid of that curse. And to do that, I need a special ingredient"
"Unicorn tears." interrupted bitch lady. None of them had a clue of what they were talking about, except for a young man with clear blue eyes and black robes, who gasped as soon as he understood where they were getting to. I clearly, still didn't understand what I had to do with all of this.
"You don't mean…" stuttered the young man in black robes. He kind of reminded me of a pirate.
"Yes" Interrupted bitch lady, again. "These tears are only found in one place, which curiously is found in this realm, though not on this island. It is found in the island where the wild creatures live."
"It's found in the living island" All of them nodded in understandment, the woman with the arrows even hold her hand to her chest in relief.
I, again, had no freaking idea of what they were talking about and I was fed up.
"Again, what do I have to do with this?" I raised my eyebrows in frustration and folded my arms. What did I get myself into?
