•Chapter 54•

"Are you ready, my lady?" Pan asked her. Y/n blushed a little. She stepped through the barrier. When she did, she was surrounded by a purple cloud. When she stepped out, her outfit had changed as well. She was dressed in a beautiful black dress with an oversized black coat. She glanced down to check out her outfit. The dress was midthigh and hugging her body. Y/n looked up at Pan. "You're enjoying these wardrobe changes, aren't you?" She asked him. "I am. You look like an absolute goddess." Pan tells her. "I didn't look good before?" She asked her boyfriend. "The pirate clothes didn't suit you, love. This dress-" Pan started. He then appeared behind her, resting his hands on her waist. "is made for you." He continued. Y/n smiled in response. She looked over at Felix. He held out his hand for her to take. Y/n stepped onto the docks, taking his hand. "Thank you, Felix." She smiled at him. Felix smiled in return. "My pleasure." He said. "What are you doing here?" Emma asked her. Y/n shrugged. "I'm here to tell you there is a way for you to speak with Killian." She replied. The blonde woman pulled out her gun and aimed it towards the Lost Girl. "How did you get out?" She questioned, earning a chuckle from Y/n. "Wouldn't you like to know?" She said. The Lost Girl stepped forward to press some buttons on the machine in the room. She giggled as small beeps sounded as she pressed certain buttons. A mischievous smirk then formed on her lips. She turned to look at the adults. "I want to make a deal." She informs. Regina glared at Y/n. "We don't make deals with people like you," Regina said. Y/n took a step closer to the Evil Queen. "People like me?" She questioned. The two women were looking directly into each other's eyes. A smile remained on Y/n's face. She knew it was Regina. She could kill her right now, here, in front of everyone. But what would be the fun in that? "Tricksters. Liars." Regina explained. Y/n raised her eyebrows. "Oh, that makes sense." She said, "You would know all about that, wouldn't you?" She added. Y/n raised her hand to touch Regina's cheek to intimidate her. But Regina grabbed her wrist before she could. "Don't even try it." She orders. Y/n leaned closer to Regina's face. "Or what? I'll end up like him?" She asked. Regina's stern expression faded into a slightly frightened one. Y/n could only smirk at her and walk past her. The Lost Girl now had her attention focused on the savior. "Why should we trust you?" Emma questioned. Y/n looked at the gun Emma was still aiming towards her. "Put down the gun, and I'll tell you," Y/n replied. The blonde woman hesitated for a few seconds. Eventually, she put away the pistol. "Good girl." Y/n smiled. The Lost Girl moved around the room again. "As I said, I want to make a deal with you people." She tells. 

Regina's eyes were glued on the girl as she walked through the room. "I will help you talk to Killian. Even bring him back if you want." Y/n started. Emma's eyes widened. "We can bring him back?" She asked. Y/n nodded in response. "That's impossible." Regina cut in. Y/n laughed at the Evil Queen, earning another glare from her. "Anything is possible. If you believe." Y/n reminds them. Regina was about to respond when Emma cut in. "How do we do that?" She asked. Y/n turned her attention back to savior. "All that matters is that I get what I want," Y/n replied. "And what exactly is it that you want?" Regina questioned. Y/n chuckled again. "I want a lot of things. But that's not part of the deal." Y/n said. She stepped closer to Regina again. "Then what's in it for you?" She repeated. "I want the Lost Boys to be free and have a roof over their heads," Y/n tells them. Regina folded her arms over her chest. "Why would we do that?" She asked. Y/n took another step closer to the Evil Queen. "Because I will help you retrieve something you want, and I want something in return. That's how deals work. I expected you knew all about that considering the number of deals you've made with Rumplestiltskin in your life." Y/n snapped back at her. Regina could only glare at her. "Do not try to get on my nerves," Regina tells her. Y/n chuckled at the Evil Queen again. "Or what?" Y/n replied. Emma stepped forward to get between the two. "We will take care of that. The Lost Boys and you will have a safe place to stay here in Storybrooke." Emma assured her. Y/n shook her head. "Not me. Just them." She replied. Emma frowned at her. "Why just them?" She asked. Y/n takes in a deep breath. "Because they have no one else besides me. And I might not always be here. I want to make sure they are safe at all times." She answered honestly. In this case, Y/n felt like it would be better, to tell the truth. Gaining their trust was the thing that was going to be the key to her success. The key to her revenge. Emma focused her eyes on Y/n, using her superpower on the young girl. The savior quickly learned she was telling the truth. Emma decided to trust the girl on her word. She looked at Regina. "She's telling the truth," Emma assured her. Regina rolled her eyes and groaned loudly. "I don't care if she's telling the truth. She could still be lying to all our faces. She has done it before and she will do it again." Regina replied.

Emma grabbed Regina by her arm and puller her away. "Regina, I don't think she's lying this time," Emma said. Regina's eyes widened slightly in shock. "I can't believe you would actually fall for this," Regina replied. The savior let out a sigh. "I thought your superpower was to see if someone is lying or not. It's clearly not working." Regina continued.  The Evil Queen was pissed at the blonde woman. How could she say that? Wasn't she concerned at all about their son and his safety? She killed Hook for a reason. All she wanted was for Henry to be safe. "She's not lying, Regina," Emma assures her. "Of course she is. How could you be so sure she isn't? This could be another plan of hers to bring evil to this town. One we cannot handle." Regina snapped at the savior. "She has lost everything, including Killian. He was the only father figure she had. She wants him back no matter what, I get that." Emma tells. "She can't be trusted. She's the female version of Pan. And believe it or not, that makes her more dangerous, Emma. You said it yourself. She has lost everything. What makes you think she won't use us to get that all back?" Regina questioned. Emma shook her head. "She wants to use our help to get her father back and to get a normal life. That's all she wants. I don't think there is something else going on here." Emma replied. "Then why would she want our help? She has the Lost Boys. She probably has some of Pan's magic." Regina said. "I don't think that's the case here, Regina." Emma tried to convince her. 

But the Evil Queen could only shake her head. Not agreeing with anything Emma said. She didn't trust Y/n. She never would. Ever. Regina let out another groan. "Whatever it is, I won't be a part of it. And neither is Henry." Regina said sternly. And with that, the Evil Queen left the room. Emma turned back to her family and the Lost Girl. "So, what's our plan?" Emma asked. Y/n shrugged. "It's very simple actually. Killian most likely has some unfinished business. So, there's only one place he can be." Y/n tells them. Everyone looked at her, not fully understanding where she would be going with this. "Have you never heard of the place of those who have unfinished business? The Underworld?" She questioned. Henry's eyes widened slightly. "You mean the land of the dead? Like Hell?" He asked her. Y/n shook her head. "Not exactly. The Underworld is only for those who still have a business on the surface but died. While being stuck in the Underworld, you still have a chance of crawling your way back up to the surface. But it's a small chance." Y/n explained to them, "That's where Killian is." She added. "But how do we even get there?" Emma asked. Y/n bit her bottom lip slightly. "We need the Evil Queen and Rumplestiltskin for that, actually." She said. Emma let out a sigh. "I'll try to talk to them," She tells her. Y/n smiled at her. "Thank you," She replied. Emma looked up at the young girl and returned the smile. "Don't thank me. When we get Killian back, we're gonna thank you." She smiled.
