CH 3
She hid in a dark ally and tried to catch her breathe. Dorothy smiled at Toto and gave him a quick pat on the head.
"Good boy." She smiled. "Well then lets-" The earth began to shake and it knocked her down. Soon vines were sprouting up out of the ground uncontrollably. "Destroying the town was not part of the deal!" Dorothy angrily mumbled. She took off towards the docks.
Regina was in the cave with the crystal that was quickly destroying the town. She knew what she had to do but she also knew what it would do to her. She wouldn't see Henry again, but who would care. After all she was the one that caused all this in the first place. She took out the piece of paper that was in her pocket and looked at each letter.
Adelaide
Emma, Snow, David and Henry all ran to the mine to find Regina standing there.
"Regina" Emma called out causing Regina to turn around.
"Not now , I'm about to do something." Regina answered. "I am going to need your help if we are going to get rid of the black hole."
Once Dorothy made it to the docks she heard a loud explosion and the vines began to disappear. She could help but smile. She knew Emma and Regina were the ones that stopped the destruction.
"Hurry!" Tamara yelled. Dorothy looked into their direction and saw them running off with Henry. She let out a relieved sigh that now the plan was actually working.
"Henry!" Dorothy turned around to see Gold, Emma, David, Snow and Regina running after them. "Stop!" Emma ordered. She saw Dorothy just standing there watching and gave her a look as if for help, but Dorothy just stood there.
She watched them run by here and Toto towards the docks as the two kidnappers and Henry went spiraling down into a portal. Dorothy was about to click her heels to leave but then vines wrapped around her holding her up and spreading her legs out.
"Hey! Knock it off!" Dorothy yelled. Toto stood in front of his captured master growling at the group approaching.
"You just stood there!" Emma yelled as she pointed the gun at her.
"Let me down!" Dorothy ordered and Toto growled and snarled showing his white sharp fangs. Dorothy heard the setting of the gun.
"Who are you!?" Emma angrily shouted. Now Regina had a fireball in her hand.
Dorothy caught Regina's eyes and could feel fear. Regina felt something once the girl and her made eye contact but she continued to hold her fireball.
"She was the waitress." Snow announced with wide eyes.
"What is your name?" Regina asked sternly.
Dorothy hesitated a moment and looked from the gun to Regina. She didn't want to tell them who she was or why she was here but the gun was very persuasive.
"My name is Dorothy." They all narrowed their eyes on her.
"Why didn't you help?" Emma asked in a threatening tone.
"They had a gun, Sheriff." Dorothy snapped as if Emma was dumb. "Why would I run towards a gun? 'Hey stop people and shoot me.'" She mocked rolling her eyes.
"She has a point." Regina extinguished her fireball. Dorothy looked at everyone then at Regina. She saw the hurt in Regina's face whether she was showing it or not. Guilt crept over her.
"Look, I can help get Henry back. I am really sorry I didn't run after him." Dorothy apologized. "I saw you all coming and I thought you would be able to handle it."
"Why would we trust you?" Emma interrogated. David placed a hand on Emma's shoulder. For some reason, Regina felt a connection to the girl.
" ," Regina went over to Emma "I think she should come with us to rescue Henry." She whispered.
"Why?" Emma harshly asked.
"Well for one, we can keep a closer eye on her and find out her story. She also might now something about Henry's kidnappers. He ran into her today." She added. Emma glanced back at the girl then Regina.
"Fine." She replied with a heavy sigh.
"Oiy, better get a move on if we are going to find the boy." Hook ordered.
"Alright, this is who's going," Rumple began. "Myself, Emma, Snow, David, Hook, Regina, and the girl." He grinned at Dorothy. Hook looked around.
"Hello, Dorothy" He smirked at the girl.
"Captain!" Dorothy saluted to the pirate with a smirk. Well as much as a salute while wearing handcuffs.
"What's up with the fancy bracelet?" He teased. She pointed to Emma who only glanced at them before looking away.
Dorothy sat on the steps of the ship with Toto lying down at her feet. Rumple had his globe and was searching for where they had taken Henry.
"They went to Neverland." Dorothy answered. They all looked at her. "Don't believe me?"
"Not really." Emma mumbled.
The globe began to change and pointed to Neverland. They didn't know what to think, but they accepted it.
"Alright, hold on!" Hook ordered as he threw a magic bean into the water that opened up into a portal.
They all held on as they went into the portal. Dorothy wrapped her arms around the railing of the ship with Toto between her legs. Regina noticed them and went over to her. She wrapped one arm around Dorothy and the other around the pole while holding on to Toto as well.
The ship landed with a splash in another ocean. Dorothy looked up to see Regina smiling at her. She wasn't use to this kindness. She squirmed a little out of the woman's grip.
"Uh…Thanks." Dorothy said and then sat back on a step.
"So kid, what's your story." Emma urged. Dorothy sighed and looked at everyone.
"What do you mean?" Dorothy asked tilting her head with a confused expression.
"You're from Kansas, right?"
"Well sort of." The girl innocently grinned. "I was born in the enchanted forest."
"Well there goes that childhood story." Emma smirked.
"So how did you end up in Oz?" Snow asked.
"Well I didn't go straight to Oz. You see I was adopted by a family in the Enchanted forest. They abused me a lot." Dorothy looked down at her feet and so did Emma. "Anyways, I ran away then Peter pan found me and brought me here." She looked up with a grin.
"So you have been here before?" David and snow asked. Dorothy proudly nodded.
"But I escaped. Hook was actually the one that saved me." She smiled up at Hook who gave a small grin back. "We around and then there was a storm. I fell through a whirl pool and ended up in Kansas." She raised her hand before Regina could say anything. "Before you ask, I have no idea how a whirlpool made me fall from the sky in Kansas."
"Sounds like you have been through a lot." Regina smirked.
"You have no idea, but Kansas is where I met Toto." She smiled down at her dog wagging his tail. "But then a cyclone came and I ended up in Oz and then I was in the enchanted forest and the curse showed up and I ended up in Storybrooke." She lied about the last part, but she had to get them to trust her.
"So how old are you now?" Snow asked eyeing the girl up and down.
"Well, subtract Neverland and the curs…" She began to count on her fingers. "15"
Enchanted Forest (past)
"Please stop!" A little girl cried.
"Shut up, Dorothy!" A man slapped the girl across the face causing her to fall to the ground.
The girl was dragged along as she sniffled and held her cheek. They stopped by a log and he threw her to the ground. She looked up with tear filled eyes.
"Go on get out of here." The man ordered.
"Please, Daddy, I'll be better." The girl pleaded as she scrambled to her feet. "Please daddy." She begged. Grabbing his hand caused him to twitch and he pulled away.
"I am not your 'Daddy'." He mocked her voice. "Now get out of here you worthless 6 year old brat." He spat back at her.
The man began to walk away. Dorothy ran up to the man and grabbed his hand. Before she could duck away, the man's arm swung into her chest causing her to fall to the ground and gasp for air. Darkness engulfed her, and she was soon unconscious.
Regina and Snow were now standing side by side. Dorothy watched them and then their voices started to pick up. The next thing anyone knew was the two women hitting each other.
Soon everyone was arguing except for Emma and Dorothy. The ship began to rock from sided to side and a clap of thunder made Toto jump. Emma watched everyone and thought. 'I need everyone to stop arguing'.
"Enough!" Emma shouted. But no one listened to her. She climbed up on the railing of the ship.
"Emma stop!" Dorothy shouted causing everyone to look at Emma. Emma dove into stormy water but then a pole from the ship fell down after her.
"Emma!" Everyone shouted.
No one paid attention to Dorothy so she concentrated on her locked handcuffs to unlock the handcuffs. She grabbed a rope and tied it around herself. Regina watched her with worry. Regina couldn't understand why she felt like she had to stop a girl she didn't even know.
"Dorothy what are you doing?" Regina asked full of concern.
"Going for a swim." Dorothy smirked. She handed the rope to David and Hook. Without any warning she ran over and jumped off the ship.
The water was dark and rough. Emma was difficult to find so she used a light spell that allowed her hand to hold a glowing orb. She used it to find Emma. Once she found Emma and grabbed her and pulled twice on the robe hoping everyone would know what to do. They pulled the two girls out and took the unconscious Emma. While everyone rushed to Emma, Regina rushed over to Dorothy.
"Are you alright?" Regina scanned the girl. Then saw the girl's confused face. "What?"
"Shouldn't you be checking Emma?" She pointed to the still uncurious blonde.
"Right." Regina sighed and went over to Emma.
As Regina walked over to the others, Toto took her place by Dorothy. He waged his tail and looked between Regina and Dorothy as if trying to prove a point.
"I know Toto." She whispered into the dog's pointed ear. "I feel it too."
"Emma" Snow cried as she held her daughter. "Don't do that."
"Sorry, but it was the only way to get you all to stop fighting. And look, the storm is gone." She pointed up at the sky.
"There it is." Hook exclaimed as he pointed to the Island.
Neverland (past)
"Looks like we have a girl, boys." A tall boy announced. Dorothy rubbed her eyes and held her knees close to her body creating a small ball. She shuddered at the boy coming closer to her. "What's your name?" The boy grinned.
Dorothy didn't speak. She watched other boys come out from behind the bushes and trees. The boys only watched her.
"My name is Peter Pan." He grinned. Dorothy could sense something was off about this boy, but she didn't know what.
"D-Dorothy." She softly spoke and hid her face in her arms.
"Well Dorothy, Welcome to Neverland. We can teach you how to sword fight, shoot arrows and anything you want." He acted out everything. "Even fly." He grinned as the little girl shot up.
"You will?" She gazed up at him with wide eyes. "Are you going to get rid of me too?"
Peter kneeled down so that he was now the height of the girl. "No, you can be a lost girl." He mischievously grinned at the hopeful little girl.
(Present)
"Well this is where we split." Rumple began once they had all finished taking in the scene of Neverland.
"What do you mean?" Regina asked tensely.
"I am not wasting any more time." With that he disappeared.
"He left us." Emma said in disbelieve.
"I can't believe you're surprised at that." Regina rolled her eyes. Emma turned around and saw Dorothy had the hand cuffs off.
"How did you get out of the hand cuffs?" Emma asked peering at the girl.
Dorothy looked from Regina to Emma searching for an answer. They couldn't know she had magic. They would suspect something and she couldn't risk her mission.
"I had been picking at it ever since we started." She lied. "You should really get better ones."
"Seriously?" Emma huffed.
"Did I not just save your life?" Dorothy agitatedly asked placing her hands on her hips.
"You did and thank you." Snow added placing a hand on Emma's arm. Dorothy smiled at Snow and nodded her head. David elbowed Emma.
"Yeah…thanks." Emma sarcastically apologized.
"Whatever." Dorothy rolled her eyes causing Emma to tens more. "Anyways, Neverland is dangerous so we all need to stick together. I know where everything is and… everyone, Peter Pan can not be trusted." She said sternly as she gazed out at the island.
"Why are you going to help us?" Emma asked. Dorothy rolled her eyes.
"Because I help people get what they want. Just something I learned in Oz." She shrugged cheekily.
