Living a Lie -Pan OUAT-

by Spottie the Lost Girl

I've always believed in Peter Pan. Sweet, charming, fun-loving Peter. He finally comes to me, but he isn't the Peter I expected. I am swept away to Neverland, and Pan is hiding a secret from me, why he takes such an interest in me, and I tend to find out, no matter what it takes.

Chapter 23 - All Magic Comes With a Price

Wendy waits on the street in London with her husband, Edward. "Are you sure he'll come?"

Edwards puts a hand in his wife's shoulder. "Wendy dear, he will come."

At that moment, the Dark One appeared out of nowhere. He smiled that crooked smile of his. "Greetings, Darlings!"

Edward goes up to him, smiling politely. "Greetings, Rumplestiltskin. Will do you do what you promised? Will you change Rebecca's appearance?"

He smiles. "Of course. But all magic comes with a price!"

Wendy sighs, coming forward, standing beside Edward. "Whatever it is, we'll pay it."

"Very well, dearie," the Dark One says. "The price is...love!"

"Love?" Wendy asks, confused.

"You know of my father, Peter Pan, correct?"

Wendy shuts her eyes. "Yes. Very well."

"Ah, you were his little prisoner for over a century! Of course you do! Then you won't like the price, dearie."

"Name it," Wendy says, trying to hold in her fear. She has a feeling she knew what the price is.

"Little Rebecca will fall in love," Rumplestiltskin tells them, "with the Pied Piper."
