{Henry's POV}

I walked out of the school and saw my mom and Hook sitting and talking at the other side of the school. I started walking towards them. But as I was walking, a hand pulled me behind a grove of trees. I tried to scream, but my abductor put her finger to her lips and shushed me. Wait, SHE?

I took a double take and I had to stop my jaw from dropping. She was gorgeous. She looked 14, but her eyes said she had wisdom beyond her years. She was wearing leather pants with a long sleeved white shirt. She had a black leather corset around her waist and black leather boots that come up to her knees. A belt is strapped around her waist with a sword and a pouch hanging off of it. Her dark brown hair is pulled over to the side. But the thing that immediately captures my attention is her eyes. They are bright gold. I tried not to stare, but it was hard.

"Are you Henry Swan?"

I snapped out of my trance as she asked me a question.

"I'm sorry. What?" I said.

"I said, are you Henry Swan?" She said, with a slight twinge of annoyance.

Not knowing what to say, I just nodded my head. I noticed that she had an accent that sounded an awful lot like Hook's.

"Do you know a man by the name of Captain Hook?"

I also didn't know what to say to this question, so I answered her question with another question.

"Are you friend or foe?" I asked. That was probably a good question to start with.

"Friend." She said with certainty. Then she said in a less sure voice, "At least, I hope so." Not very reassuring.

"Who are you?" I asked her.

"Nobody that concerns you. I just need to know if you know Captain Hook."

I still don't know whether to tell her or not, so I said, "Why should I tell you?"

"Well, you don't really have to." She saw the confused look on my face and continues. "I noticed you looking at my eyes. Let me explain. I am a Seer. They are a very rare group of magic wielders with special mind oriented powers. Our trademark is our golden eyes. My powers? Well, I can read minds. I can also see and hear things from far away, and I can stop and start time. Also, I can talk to you through your mind. Do you understand? The asking was just me being a lady. So don't make me use my powers. Now, do you know Captain Hook?"

I nodded my head, slowly starting to understand the stakes.

"Can you take me to him?"

"I-I guess." I said, still kind of hesitant.

"Great!" she said, with sudden excitement. "Let's go!" She sprang up, pulling me with her. We walked out of the grove of trees, and I hesitantly walked her over to Hook and Emma, hoping I didn't make the wrong decision.

{Killian's POV}

Me and Emma were still telling each other things we didn't know about each other when I heard a voice I never thought I'd hear again.

"K-Killian?"

My head snapped up and I saw Henry and a girl standing a few feet away. But it wasn't any girl. I could feel the tears starting to well up in my eyes.

"KILLIAN!" She screamed. We both ran towards each other. I scooped her up, twirled her around, and then crushed her in a hug. Emma stood up in shock as Henry moved over to her, his mouth wide open.

I held the girl arms distance away from me so I could see her clearly. A single tear slid down my cheek.

Words started to flow out of my mouth. "Where have you been? How are you? You've grown so much!"

She smiled at me and wiped the tear off of my cheek.

"Do you still have your sword?" She patted the sword at her side.

"And the nectar?" She opened the pouch and pulled out a vial filled with red liquid.

"How about your powers? Still have them?"

Still here and as strong as ever, She said to me through my mind.

"Killian?" I heard Emma say. "Who is this?" I looked at her, and then back to the girl in my arms.

"Well, bloody hell, we've got some explaining to do," I said to the girl. She shook her head and laughed. "You wanna tell her?" I asked.

She winked at me and then moved out of my arms.

"I am so sorry!" She said. "Where are my manners?" She bowed, looked up, and said, "Melody Jones, at your service."
