The Captain's Daughter

Haunting Past

We were cutting through the jungle. It was a little more overgrown than I remembered it being. We were heading up to the tallest peak on Neverland. Cause from there, you could see everything. Everyone was a little uptight with eachother and it was starting to show. I was behind Snow bringing up the rear. She let go of a plant before I was through and it smacked me in the face. Ah bloody hell. Sorry Hayes. She said before stopping to give Emma water. I moved around them and got caught up with dad. Charming, who was cutting through everything started to cut through a thorn bush. Dad grabbed him. No! I can handle a couple of thorns. I looked at the plant known as Dream shade. It was a poisonous plant. I looked at dad as the others said they'd go the complete opposite way dad suggested. I sighed and climbed up a tree that had a long branch. Hayes, be careful. Dad snapped and I nodded before grabbing a vine and sliding and slightly swinging while heading down. My feet hit the ground as Charming called. I guess he had reached the top of the ridge. Finally. I muttered heading up. I got to the edge and my stomach dropped before I scrambled back. I bit my lip, nervously waiting for them to say they saw something of Pan's camp, but there was nothing. Dad walked back and I frowned. What're we doing? Making camp. My stomach dropped. W-why? Because we need to rest so we can find Henry. I swallowed hard again as I felt like I was going to be sick. Come on. He said as he headed back down the ridge.

We had made camp. I was standing next to the fire. Hayes. I looked over at dad who came walking back from the jungle. I'm taking first watch. I said and he frowned some squinting. Why? I'm not tired. I said crossing my arms as Emma went to go to her area. You need rest, you've had a rough couple of days. He's right. I glared over at Emma and then back at dad. Someone will need to be on watch. What is the worst that could happen? Lost boys. I said and Emma shrugged sitting down. Fine, but we switch out in two hours. Fine. Dad went to our tent Emma went to where she was sleeping and I sat down, my back against a log.

Lost Boys, can hear his flute, can hear the music, and the crying. I sat up, I had fallen asleep my elbow was propped up on the leg and my chin had been in my hand. They can hear it, because they themselves are lost. It's said if you hear it, you are lost. I stood up and drew my sword, spinning around as I could hear him all around me, and my stomach dropped as the crying picked up. Can you hear it? I finally came face to face with him. I swallowed hard and shook my head. No. Don't lie, and wake up!

I sat up and sighed as the crying hadn't just been in my dream. I looked around, everyone was in bed asleep, all but- Emma? I stood up quickly. Emma?!? I snapped a little quietly. I heard talking and followed it. I came up to Emma and I saw Pan. He smirked and was gone. Emma, what did he want?!? I snapped and she turned looking at me. What're you- keeping watch. I said and she squinted. What is that? Come on, help me wake up the others. I nodded and we headed back to camp. She tried to wake everyone up, but they were not budging. I sighed. I can wake them up. How? I smirked. Elements. I said before rubbing my hands together, Emma frowned as some lighting streaked through the sky and I clapped a loud roll of thunder sent everyone jumping up. Wow. She muttered and I smirked. Elemental magic, with a side of regular magic. I said dad sighed and Emma told them about the map. Snow and I will go scout around see if we can find any sign of Pan. I'll go the other way and see what I can find. No. I looked at dad and sighed. Look, u can handle this, this island can't hurt me. He swallowed and shook his head. I'm not sure about letting a ten year old wander off by herself. I got this. I said before grabbing my weapons and heading away.

After a minute or two I came to a clearing. I frowned as I heard rustling. I kept spinning as whatever it was, had me cornered. I frowned as it was in the trees now. I turned looking up frowning. Well, well look at what the tide brought in. Something fell and landed with a loud thud behind me I drew my sword and turned around, my blade pointed towards the ground at the person, who was crouched there. Hello, Hayes. They stood up the tip of my sword followed them, my jaw dropped some. F-Felix. Bu bum... bu bum
