Ariana's POV
"Rise and shine!" I shouted startling Emma awake. She instantly reached for her gun
"Woah!" I through my hands up "it's only me!"
"Oh... You scared me! Mary-Margaret! David! Wake up!" She shook then both gently
"Ugh I am exhausted!"
"There's coffee in the kitchen but hurry up drinking it" Snow's face lit up "the sooner we set off the better!"
"You have coffee here?" Regina appeared out the door way with a steaming cup of coffee in her hand
"Yeah from the coffee beans. They grow not too far from here actually"
When everyone had finished breakfast we headed off and I begin to lead them to Peter...
"So how exactly did you learn to block Pan from seeing you?"
"Well... Since my magic is technically his magic I just manipulated a blocking spell..."
"Wait so Pan taught you magic?" Regina caught up to me
"Yes..."
"So you and him were once friends?" Hook snickered at her choice of words
"Yes..." I repeat slowly. Regina them stopped me
"Then how do we know we can trust you? How do we know that Pan isn't waiting for us on the other side?!" I smiled at her
"Look... The last time I saw Peter he got one of the lost boys to try and kill me and if you don't believe that ask Hook!" They all turned to him
"She's telling the truth"
"She is..." Emma confirmed
"Right now that we've cleared that up shall we continue walking?" They all followed my lead
"So why did Pan want you dead?" David just had to ask!
"Because I took something I shouldn't have..."
"Why? What did you take?"
I sighed
"Something I fear he wants from Henry"
They all gasped "and what would that be?"
"His heart..."
Everyone fell silent...
"Wait so you took a Heart?"
"Well technically I let him go... His sister was dreadfully worried" I remember seeing the look on Wendy's face when I brought her brother back in one piece... I hope Hook got them as far away from here as possible...
"I'm sorry I still don't understand. Why would Pan want Henry's heart?"
"Because Snow... Henry has the heart of the truest believer..."
"And what will he do with the heart?"
I rolled my eyes "do what any other power hungry maniac would do...-"
"Make magic..." Regina finished me off
"Exactly!"
"So if it was that easy why don't was you so against helping us at first?" Emma ran a hand through her blond hair
"I didn't say it was easy... In fact it's going to be the total opposite..."
"Then how did you help that boy to escape?"
"Back then I was part of Peter's little tribe..."
"You were a lost boy?!" Snow's eyes widened
"Lost girl..." I corrected her
"Oh yeah, sorry"
"How did you become a lost girl?" She pushed
I let out a long winded sigh "it's a long story..."
"I'm sure we have enough time..." I knew they wasn't going to just drop it so I looked to Hook for help but he just nodded
"Tell them who you really are..." I sighed once more before beginning...
"Several years ago my farther had his 'problem' child locked away in a tower by some evil fairy. She said that it would 'straighten me out a bit' my mother of course was against the whole idea but like everyone else in the end she succumbed"
"That's awful!" Snow looked genuinely disgusted
"Oh wait it gets worse..." I continued "I begged and pleaded for them not to lock me up there but they said I could be released when they find someone to marry me off too..."
Flash back
"Please! Mother! Farther! No!"
"Stop this at once Ariana! Normal young lady's do not act like this!"
"That's because most normal young lady's aren't being impressed!"
"We've been over this Ariana!" My farther was about to lose his temper "it's only until we find you a husband!"
"So your going to marry me off to some stranger I don't even know?!"
"It's for your own good!"
"For my good? Or the kingdoms?"
"That's not the point!"
"Then what is?!"
"Look, Ariana... This is best for everyone!" I sighed. I knew arguing with him was pointless. So obeying orders was what i had to do...
"We love you darling... It won't be long until we see you again..." I hugged my mom as tightly as possible
"Let's hope so..."
"Fiona sends her love" I rolled my eyes "what have I told you about that? Princess don't roll there eyes!" I smiled at her
"I love you darling..."
"I love you too..."
"It is time..." My farther gestured to the carriage that was here to take me away "I'll see you soon my dear..." And that was it. He turned and walked away...
The journey to the tower was long. Really long. It was in the middle of nowhere with nothing to see or hear. I had the feeling that it was going to be extremely boring...
