Chapter 9: Saving Henry
Sam's POV
"Henry?" I said, running over to my nephew.
Emmy, Regina, Roland and Neal joined me. Roland was crying.
I touched his chest for any sign of life and a heartbeat- I may be five, but I was smart.
His heart should be beating- but it wasn't. I could feel no heartbeat vibrating against my hand.
"Nothing…" because Pan has his heat," I said, looking up, tears in my eyes. I looked back to Henry.
"Henry, come on, wake up," I said, trying to get him to heart to work, but I knew it was useless as my stupid nephew had given his heart of his own free will to Pan.
Emma looked at me, reading my thoughts. "Sam," she said." "You're not thinking clearly- Henry is not stupid."
Regina glared at me.
He had convinced Henry to side his own family."
"Is he awake," Emmy asked and I shook my head. "He fell unconscious the instant Henry gave Pan his heart."
"Is he breathing?" Regina asked. I shook my head. "His heart isn't beating. "Pan has it," I said."
Emma gently took me in her arms, taking me over to a rock near them where Roland hugged me and I hugged him back.
Imagine how Roland must be feeling.
Emma went back over to Henry and crouched beside him, putting her left hand on the side of Henry's chest.
I looked at my sister. "Emmy, will Henry be all right?" I asked, fearfully."
Neal came over and hugged me. "Yes, he will be," Neal, said."
"What the hell did you do?" Emma yelled angrily at Pan.
Pan smirked. "I didn't do anything, Emma. "It was Henry- he willingly gave his heart to me.
Emma stabbed him with a sword and he had blood trickling down him at a fast pace.
"He bleed," Roland said, looking up. "He did, didn't he?" I said.
"You're going to be all right, Henry, we're going to get you home," Regina said. She put her hands over Henry's chest, doing a spell.
"This preservation spell can keep him in this condition for a while, but not too long, it can buy us time to get to Pan," Regina said."
Emma looked up at Neal. "Neal, you were a Lost Boy. Any ideas where he went?"
Neal sighed. "I know where he lived, but that's about it-"
Regina cut him off, saying, "You're useless-"
Emmy then cut her off, saying, no, don't tell me what's enough. "My son is dying."
"Our son," Emma corrected. I rolled my eyes. "Guys, this is so not the time to be arguing." I turned to Emmy. "Emmy, I'm not siding Gina, but Henry is still legally Regina's."
Emmy gave me one of her death glares, before turning to Regina.
Emmy mustn't have liked my comment, because she glared at me. I hated it when she glared at me.
"I know how you feel," Emmy said."
"You know nothing what I feel," Regina said.
I looked at them and rolled my eyes, not wanting to hear my sister and Regina arguing about their feelings over my nephew's dying body.
Not wanting to hear the argument any longer, I thought of only one thing she could come up with that would get them to stop. A power only I could do, that no one else knew about- not even Emma.
I let out a high- pitched scream, making sound waves, but not powerful enough to control animals, but it was strong enough to knock Emmy and Regina off their feet.
But before they could knock into a rock, I telekinetically floated them to the floor.
"Lets go," I said, impatiently.
"Sam!" What was that for?" Emma asked. "What was that power that you just did Kid?"
"It is a scream that wards off opponents and danger," I said. "I just didn't want to hear you both fighting over Henry anymore."
"So I did the only logical thing," I said, and Emmy glared at me. Again. "Roland had a scared look in his eyes from Emma's glare. I felt his emotion. He walked over to her and hit her. I laughed, as that's what he would've wanted me to do. "You do anything for you're Imprints."
I looked at Emmy. "I do not like it when you look at me like that," I told her. "You glared at me twice." "You look like your angry." "Roland got scared when you glared at me."
"No, I'm not angry," Emmy, said.
David looks at Regina. "How much time do we have?"
"Maybe an hour before the preservation spell wears off," Regina said.
"He could be anywhere on this island," Neal replied.
"Let's go," I said.
Emma looked at Henry.
"Where is he?" Regina demanded, grabbing Felix.
"Regina, wait," Emma said, grabbing Regina's arm. "I don't think inflicting pain is the answer. "These kids have been through hell and back." "We need to try another method."
"They didn't respond to your method, what else do you have to present?" Regina said.
"What every kid wants- a mother," Emma said."
"They need comfort, like Emmy comforts me," I said
Emma's POV
"Guys listen to me, we are not going to hurt you." "My little sister and Roland are just children."
"I know you're loyal to Pan." "And I get that.
"But you are making a terrible mistake," I said, looking at the Lost Boys.
"I thought I was never going to find my family- that I would stay being an orphan forever- a lost girl," I said.
"But I was reminded that I'm not alone- I have people that love me- especially my little sister, she's standing right in front of me," I replied."
"It can happen to you too
"Yeah," Piped up Sam.
"No," Felix replied." "Pan's all we need, he's family to us."
"He's not family." "Pan lied to you and you've had to do awful things," I replied."
Sam looked up at Felix.
"He tricked Henry into giving his own heart to Pan," Sam said.
"To save the island," Devin Replied.
"No, he did it to save him," Roland said.
Felix turned to Sam and pushed her over. That made me angry. "How dare he push my sister over? She's only 5."
Sam seemed unfazed.
I put my arm protectively around my little sis and Roland.
"Don't listen to them," Felix said. "What they're saying is not true."
Yes, it is," Sam, said. "He is a big phony and a retard."
Felix went to push Sam, but I got in the way, grabbing her and holding her tight.
"Samantha Snow Swan Nolan!" "That is not a nice word to say," mum said.
"Sam, what do I always tell you?"
"Samantha…"
"Mummy he…"
Mum just gave Sam a serious look.
Sam sighs. "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all," Sam says.
That word was mum and I's favorite."
"That's my girl," dad said.
Sam retaliated by pushing Felix on the floor. Hard. She laughed.
I glared at Sam and shook her.
"Sammy!" "What is you're problem?" I asked her.
"I felt like it," Sam replied.
"Well Sam, that behavior is not to be excepted," mum said."
"Okay," Sam answered.
I turned to the Lost Boys. "We care about you," I said. "We can take you home with us," I told the Lost Boys.
Sam looked at me. "You glared Emmy!" "That's the forth time you glared at me."
I looked at Sam. "Then behave."
"We can take you home to our land." "You don't have to be scared anymore," I said.
"Where is Pan," I asked Felix.
"Not telling, not going to betray Pan," Felix said.
"Can you really bring us home?" one of them asked.
"Shut you're mouth!" Felix said.
"Yes, we can with your help," I told him.
"His thinking tree," one of them said again.
"No!" Felix yelled at them. "Stop it, all of you."
"What is that?" I asked them, gently.
"Its where he goes when he wants to be alone," the same boy said.
"You can find him there, it's not far."
"No, don't trust her!" Felix said.
"Can you tell us where that is? I asked them.
"Yeah," the same boy said. "But you have to swear, promise that you'll take us with you."
"I promise," I said. "We're going home, all of us." Me, my parents, my sister, Roland, everyone."
Wendy was with Henry putting a wet cloth on his forehead. Sam was with them.
"The Pixie Woods. "That's where it is?" Regina asked.
"Yes, its just north of here." "It's where the pixie dust used to grow."
"I know where it is. "The whole region is deserted now." "No one but Pan has set foot in those woods in centuries," Hook said.
"We need you here," I said. "Once we get Henry's heart, its gonna be a race back. "We need help on both ends, okay. "Sam, you stay with Hook, Neal, Tink and Roland."
"Okay," Neal said.
"Let's gather up the Lost Boys and get on board the Jolly Roger.
"Prepare the ship to fly," Hook instructed.
"Let's hope you have a Pegasus Sail, otherwise we're at the mercy of the trade winds.
Neal's POV
I can assure you nothing is going to happen to them while you two are away," I said.
"Three. "I may be trapped on this island for the rest of eternity, so if you think I'm going to be spending my last moments with my older daughter, you're crazy," Mary Margaret said.
"Okay, lets do it," Emma said.
I had Sam, Henry and the Lost Boys on board the ship.
It was an hour before Emma, Regina, and David arrived. Sam was getting frantic, I couldn't calm her down." Roland was the same."
Emma, Regina, David and Mary Margaret came over.
"Henry? Where is he?" Emma asked.
"Over here with Sam and Roland. Sam looks up. "Emmy."
Emma went over to Sam and held her, while Regina had his heart. With Sam in her arms, she held Henry's hand with her free hand.
Regina puts Henry's heart back in his chest.
"Henry," Emma and Sam said in unison.
"Are we too late," Sam whimpers. Emma hugs her little sister.
"Henry, honey!" Regina said.
There was a gasps and Henry's eyes flew open.
Sam, Emma and Regina hugged him in a group hug.
"I wanted to save magic," Henry said.
"Welcome back, young sir," Hook spoke up. "You're sleeping in the Captains Quarters."
Regina said she'd tuck Henry in. Sam and Roland walk in with Regina and Henry.
Regina's POV
"Oh, I know that look. Five hours of Space Paranoids and too much pizza."
Sam and Roland giggles.
I put my hand over the left side of Henry's chest and a yellow glow forms.
"Stings, what's that for?" Henry asked me.
"A spell, so that nobody can take your heart ever again," I said.
"Thanks mum.
"We'll be home soon, my little Prince."
