We walked looking for the cave that Neal was placed in. While everyone talked I stayed in the back, overthinking about my past. Why Peter was so different then now he like this, kidnapping and playing with adults.

Flashback:
The sun was warm and my Father let me back on the island, I went to my favourite place on the island, The Groves. Today I brought my own sword to fight with.

I jumped over a large rock and hid, waiting for Peter to come. He showed up unarmed, Not smart. I creeped up and hopped onto the rock I hid behind, I jumped down quietly and knocked Peter off his feet with my leg. He hit the ground hard on his back.

"Always pay attention to your surroundings" I said holding my sword and winking at Peter. He smiled and laughed, "That's true but" he swiped his leg from underneath mine and made me fall back. I thumped on the ground hard on my back. I moaned from the pain that shot through my spine.

"You should also pay attention to whom you challenge." he said standing up and brushing him self off. He pulled out his hand to help me up. When I got up he was smiling.

"What" I asked blushing. "I think you're ready" he said walking away. "Wait ready for what?" I said turning to look at him. "Come on I'll show you" he said running forwards towards the beach. I ran to find him, I got to the beach and saw a bunch buckets with cans everywhere.

"You'll have fun don't worry." I heard Peter say from behind me, I felt his hands slowly come on to my shoulders. "How is this going to be fun?" I asked turning around to face Peter, "Im going to teach you magic Lexi!" I smiled and hugged him, "This is awesome." I said I walked forward and tripped.

I opened my eyes to see Emma helping me up from my fall I looked behind me and I tripped over a large rock. "I'm okay thanks" I lifted up my pants and saw that I cut up my shin on the rock.

"Love are you alright" my father said walking over to me, "Yeah I'm fine." I said pulling down my pant leg. "Let's go" I said shooing them forwards. We walked for about 2 more minutes before walking up to a cave.

"Here it is" my father said approaching the cave. "A cave?" Mary-Margaret asked, I walked up to my father. "It's the cave of secrets." I said leaning on the side. My leg hurt from the fall so I wanted to take some pressure off the wound. "Cave of secrets?" Emma asked confused. "To get to your item of choice you must tell a secret you haven't told anyone else." My father said to the group.

"Were do these secret go?" David asked us. "Pan can find them and he believed that he can use the secrets against us" he said looking at the group again. "Let's just go in and get out" Emma said walking in to the cave with the others following. Me and my dad looked at each other, nodded and walked in the cave.

When we walked in there was a cliff and a single rock, it looked as if it was floating it was really dark in the cave I could barley see. "Is that" Emma said pointing out to the floating rock, "EMMA?!" It was Neal he was in the cage on the middle rock. How did he get there?

"How do we get across?" Emma asked looking around, "This is the part were we spill the secrets" my dad said turning to the group of us. "Who's going first?" I asked, "I'll go first" my dad said a couple seconds later.

"Me and Emma kissed" my dad said, I raised my eyebrows but I wasn't surprised they would eventually. "Hook that's not a secret, I told David already." she said looking over David, "That's not all of it, I mean I've never fallen or even thought of falling for another woman after Milah but when we kissed i felt something I never felt in ages" I was staring at him and Emma was too, he took a deep breath.

"I felt love, I fell in love with you Emma." he said the ground started to shake and we all ducked to keep our balance. A rock formation came from nowhere and built a path. "I'll go next" I said taking a deep breath because I knew the reactions I was about to get.

"Me- Me and Peter, we kissed." I said looking down and continued "I felt something that I didn't want to feel, I felt safe in his arms and our- I just I loved it" I said looking up to the group my dad was staring at me, I knew he was mad his hand was clenched and his face emotionless, I looked over to Mary and David they were surprised as well to my secret. I was most likely the most hated person right now.

The rock formation came again smaller that the first. "Okay me now" Mary said turning towards David. "I want another baby, I want a better family David, we missed everything with Emma, her first step, her first word" she explained "I want a new beginning with you, I want another child" David eyes were filled with sadness and happiness at the same time. Another formation.

"You can have that" he said, Mary smiled at him, "Just not with me" he said he smile turning into a frown. Another formation appeared finishing the line. "I can't have a child with you because I can't leave." he said almost crying. "What?" She whispered.

Emma ran across the rock path over to Neal's cage. She started to hit the cage with the sword she had. Neal yelled at her to stop. "You know what you have to do Emma." He said to her, she looked back to is and back at Neal.

"Fine" she said, "Honestly I didn't want to find you here, I was really wishing you were dead because I knew that every time I look at you I fall in love again and I don't want that anymore. I really don't because I still love you but I don't want to because I know it's so hard to let you go." She said with tears and a hopeless voice. The cage slowly dissolved and Neal jumped out for Emma and pulled her into a hug.

"We need to talk" my dad whispered in my ear walking up to me. I nodded and started to walk out of the cave. With the other following I walked out of the opening of the cave. I went to turn and talk to my dad but I felt like I was shot in the stomach and I flew to ground.

My head was pounding and my arms felt weak, I screamed in pain and my dad with Emma following I could barley see them and could see them trying to talk but I couldn't hear, the buzzing in my ears and the pounding in my blocked them out I tried to say a word but nothing came out just a scream and then my eyes closed and everything turned black.
