"Who is a good boy? Who tried to eat me alive, but is a good boy?" Felix cooed as he rubbed Cerberus' belly. The giant dog was wagging his tail happily as it lay on his back, Felix beside him. Hades had imprisoned him for some reason, which he still didn't know, and had Cerberus guards him.

The first few times he tried to escape Cerberus stopped him, but later he discovered that Cerberus is actually just like any other dog. So after a while of carefully approaching the beast and petting it Cerberus warmed up to him. It was a good thing that Felix was more a dog than a cat person. Still, he got some nasty scars from that beast, but it's not like he didn't already have those. He's just happy that he got a friend to keep him company now, instead of wanting to eat him.

One moment he was still rubbing Cerberus tummy, and the other he was in Hades cave like home with the weird, different colored rivers. He'd seen the Disney movie Hercules with Sophia, so he knew a bit about the river of souls, but other than what the movie said, he knew nothing of Greek mythology.

Hades cleared his throat behind him and tapped his feet. A smirk crawled on Felix lips as he turned, leaning back on his hands and tilting his head so that he was looking up at this 'Lord of the Dead'. The title didn't really impress him since he'd been called a monster himself quite often.

"Hades! Good to see you. Has been a while," Felix said, the smirk still on his lips. Hades gave him a unamused look at which Felix smirk only grew. He always liked teasing Hades, it was literally playing with death.

"Is this some kind of game to you?" Hades asked, slowly starting to walking around him. Felix followed him with his eyes.

"You know I'm a Lost Boy, games are my life."

Hades stopped, pinching the bridge of his nose and closing his eyes for a second. "How did you even manage to get Cerberus to not kill you?"

"I can't help it Fluffy likes me." Felix smirk turned into a smug smile as he watched Hades trying to calm his frustration.

"Fluffy?" Hades repeated, removing his fingers from his nose and looking at him with wide eyes. "You named him Fluffy?"

"Ever seen Harry Potter?"

"Yes, but Cerberus is not Fluffy."

"Why not?" Felix cocked his head.

"You know what? Never mind. I've brought you here for another reason than Cerberus."

"Fluffy," Felix corrected him. Hades sighed weary, shooting a death glare as he started walking closer to him. Felix only grinned at him, enjoying this way too much. But hey, why shouldn't he? He was dead already, much worse than this couldn't it possible get.

"As I was saying," he continued, kneeling down beside Felix when he was close enough. "do you know why you are here? Why I hold you prison?"

He turned his head to Hades, still grinning. Maybe he was a bit uncomfortable by the way Hades sat so close to him, that rarely meant something good, plus it was rather awkward, but that doesn't mean Hades had to know that. "No, because you never told me when I asked."

"Well I guess you can know now," Hades said in a low, harsh whisper. Felix knew that if Hades whispered like that, it meant he was up to something, that he had something he could use against people. Long story short, it meant that Hades knew something that he could use against him. "You see, I have a son. Maybe you know him, Caligo is his name. I personally would have chosen a different name, but I didn't have much say on that."

The grin slowly faded from Felix's lips. So that is the demon's father. Somewhere in the back of his mind he already knew, but still it surprised him. It explained so much now that he thought about it.

"And my boy has a crush on this girl, you probably know her too." Hades swung his arm around his shoulder, looking away from Felix face and to something in front of them, as if he was thinking about something and saw it before him. Felix however kept his eyes glued on Hades, already knowing where this is going. "What was her name, Sana? Sissy? Scarlet? Sophie?" He snapped his fingers, slowly turning his head back to Felix. "Sophia, isn't it?"

The amusement he felt before was completely gone as he glared at Hades, clenching his jaw almost painfully. Oh, how badly he wanted to kill the devil for saying her name. But, he stayed put, knowing that this was exactly what he wanted.

"He really likes this girl. He likes her so much that he even refused to come down here to live with me because we wouldn't leave her. Because he loves her. Romantic, don't you think?"

"Very," Felix said sarcastically. "but what does that have to do with me?" He already knew the answer, but he just wished he was wrong.

"Well, that Sophia girl had a boyfriend. Forgive me, I'm not good at names," Hades tapped his chin as he pretended to think. "it started with an 'F', I think. Oh, and his name ended with a 'X'. Do you know anyone with those letters in their name?"

"Felix," he said through gritted teeth, his glare still fixed on Hades.

"That's the one. But sadly that boy died when his 'best friend' crushed his heart, and you are not going to believe what happened next." Hades paused, putting his finger on his lips as if he was lost in thoughts.

"What happened?" he asked slightly frustrated but also curious. He'd been worried about Sophia ever since he got down here. He knew she was strong, that she could protect herself, but he was still worried.

"Oh, yeah. Where was I?" Hades paused again, and Felix could barely hold himself as the urge not to strangle the man got bigger and bigger. "My son was imprisoned with that beautiful girl. You know, the two of them, in the dark, no one else."

Felix was sure his teeth were going to break if he gritted them any harder, and he was fairly sure his hands were bleeding from digging his fingernails too deep into the flesh of his palm. Still, he didn't move. He wasn't going to give Hades the pleasure of seeing how much those words got to him.

"And then," Hades gasped dramatically. "she couldn't let go of her dead boyfriend."

"What?" Felix eyes widened and his body relax slightly before tensing up again. Sophia couldn't move on from him? Of course she loved him but… did he really mean that much to her? He was sure he could never move on from her, but that was just him. Did she really love him that much, too?

"You are not going to believe what happened next," Hades said, acting as if it was some big secret. "she wasn't the only one, someone else couldn't let him go either."

Felix knitted his brows together in confusion. "Who?" he asked before he could stop himself.

"Someone who calls himself Peter Pan." Felix eyebrow shot up and Hades nodded dramatically. "Yes. The one who killed him. Who would have thought, right?" He looked away from Felix again. "But then they both did something that not even I expected. It was rather stupid if I say so myself."

"What did they do?" he asked. He knew Sophia could get herself in trouble rather easily. If something happened to her he could never forgive himself. It might sound dramatic, but he would blame it on himself. He should have been there for her, should have fought harder.

Hades came suddenly closer, as if he was going to reveal a secret that no one was supposed to hear. "They went to the underworld to save him."

"Your lying," he immediately said. Of course he was lying. How could he have been so stupid to consider any word he said true? Felix looking straight ahead of him as he said, "I'm not worth that trouble."

Hades chuckled lowly as he stood, a sound that reminded him of how Caligo chuckled. Like father, like son. "Oh, but they think differently."

"And even if it was true, why would you tell me?"

"Because now you know why I keep you here," he said with a amused smile. "now you know that your ex-best friends and lover are looking for you. And oh, how disappointed they will be when they can't find you. Imagen this; Peter and Sophia, their faces all sad as they step back into the ferry and go back home. And now that there is no hope of bringing you back Sophia would finally move on with my son and they would come down here. Oh, and the best part is," Hades kneeled down again, whispering in a low voice, "when she finally finds you, it will be too late."

Before Felix got to process the words his body reacted and punched Hades right in the face. Rage filled his body as he pushed himself off the ground, glaring down at Hades who had fallen back because of the blow. "Don't you dare hurt her, not in any way your sick mind could imagen."

Hades just laughed as if Felix had said the funniest thing in the world. He stood as well, brushing off his clothing. "You can't protect her anymore. She entered my domain, so she is my new toy to play with, just like you are."

"I am anything but a toy," he said in a growl. "and no matter what I'll protect her, even if it means I have to die all over again and again and again."

Hades cocked his head, looking as if he was looking at something cute. "How sweet." He expression turned serious again as he continued. "but I can't seem to understand one thing; how are you going to protect her if she is in town and you are down here?"

A smirk crawled on Felix face as he slowly stepped back. Hades may be the Lord of the Underworld, but he wasn't as bright as he sometimes made people believe. Or Felix was just really sneaky, being a Lost Boy had its perks. "I already planned my escape. You didn't actually think all I did was sit there and pet Fluffy, now did you?"

Hades gave him a questioning look the further he stepped back. He knew that if he kept walking he would end up falling in The River of Lost Souls, and by the looks of it, Hades noticed that as well. "What are you doing?" Hades asked him warily.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" He held up his hands, grinning as he walked back further, a bit faster now. At the edge of the river she stopped, putting his fingers in his mouth and whistled loudly. For a moment it was completely silent until the ground started to shake and loud barking could be heard. "I've learned Fluffy some new tricks."

The barking got louder and louder. Felix grin was filled with mischief as he looked at Hades before he turned and jumped into the ferry that was floating on the River of Lost Souls. He almost missed the boat. As soon as his shoes hit the wooden floor of the ferry he a laugh escaped him. It worked.

"No!" Hades yelled at him as the boat began to take off. His hair turned into blue flames and it looked absolute ridicules, so ridicules that Felix couldn't help but laugh as the ferry brought him further down the river. At that moment Cerberus stormed in, breaking one of the gateways to Hades cavy home. His red eyes were set on Hades, drool drooling down the beast jaws as it growled, showing its teeth.

"Get him, boy," Felix called, his hand next to his mouth before he used it to wave farewell at Hades.

Tricked the Lord of Death, check.

"So, where do we start?" Sophia asked Peter as they walked past the creepy looking shops. The Underworld turns out to be just like Storybrooke, but… redder. The sky was red and there was just this… sphere that Sophia couldn't place. It was kind of depressing.

"Perhaps the woods since that is where he lived most of his life," Peter suggested, looking around almost nervously.

"Sounds logic."

They made their way to the woods. As they walked they passed more shop and even a little diner that looked exactly like Granny's. But like everything around here, it looked more depressing and red than the original. On their way Sophia to the forest part of the town noticed Peter was awfully quiet. She turned her head to look at him, seeing his eyes scan their surroundings again and again, as if he didn't want to miss anything.

"Are you okay?" she asked him gently, giving him a soft smile.

"Of course," he said instantly. He looked at her, offering her a smile before continuing what he'd been doing.

"It's okay to be nervous, you know." She lifted her hand, gently placing it on his shoulder. Peter laughed at that, but it sounded forced, and brushed off her hand.

"I'm not nervous. Why would I be nervous?"

She tilted her head, trying to catch his eyes. "He doesn't hate you."

Peter stopped his fake laugh, and soon his whole face fell. His eyebrows knitted together while his eyes suddenly found the path ahead of them more interesting than their surroundings.

"I'm nervous too," she admitted quietly, looking down as well. But Peter's head shot up, his eyebrow raised in confusion.

"Why would you be nervous? You didn't kill him. He would be overjoyed to see you. Me on the other hand-"

"What if he moved on? What if he isn't down here? That is what makes me nervous, and scared."

Sophia placed her hands in Felix hoody pockets, feeling suddenly more nervous and scared now that she admitted her fears out loud. To her surprise she felt Peter's hand on her shoulder, trying to comfort her. He gave her a bit of an awkward smile when she looked up and squeezed her shoulder before letting his hand fall, looking forward again.

"Thank you," he said quietly after a while. "for, you know, trusting me after everything I've done to you."

"Don't mention it." Not a second later they arrived at the treehouse where Peter and Felix lived in during the first curse. "We're here."

"Yep, let look inside." Peter started climbing the ladder, Sophia right behind him. But as they entered the treehouse they were disappointed; Felix was nowhere to be found. Sophia walked to his small room, seeing an exact copy of all his stuff in the room. She had only been here in Storybrooke once when they had to get some clothing for Felix when he hid in her room, but she had taken a good look around. Plus, she had a good memory.

She smiled at the memory. She had teased him about how messy it was, but he just picked everything off the ground and put it in a bag, saying that he'll dump it on her floor instead of his from now on. But he didn't. He kept all his on his side and although it sometimes looked messy he would clean it up eventually.

As she looked around the room her chest tightened. She just wanted to find him already. Just seeing him was enough for her, as long as she saw him. Because this, looking at his stuff that hasn't even been used by him, was just torture to her.

"Found anything useful?" Peter asked, poking his head through the door opening.

Sophia took a deep breath, pushing away the tears that were prickling behind her eyes and shook her head. "No, let's go."

Peter nodded and followed Sophia as she walked to the hatch and opened it, climbing down. They started walking back to town. If he was not here than he should be somewhere in town.

"Where to next?" Peter asked after a walking quietly for a while.

"Maybe Ingrid's ice cream shop. He lived there for a while after the curse broke so perhaps he works there down here too," Sophia suggested, feeling hope fill her again. She would see him again soon, she could feel it.

"To the ice cream shop it is."

A/N: Question, I'm curious to know how many of you ship Sophia with Felix and how many with Caligo. let me know in the reviews ;)
