Hook

I walked over to check on Hayes, she had been very off, and it was starting to concern me. Hayes? She didn't move, I crouched next to her and put a hand on her back, but it sunk. Hayes?!? I pulled the blanket back, it was a bag, and a pillow. I looked over and saw the sword and a note.

Dad
By the time you find this, I'll already be gone. Henry, is like my brother, and I am not about to lose another brother to Pan, or his Minions. I know you all had this plan, but if I can help- and we both know I can- I'm going to help.
H Jones

She's gone. I snapped coming around they all turned frowning. What? Hayes, is gone. Where?!? To get Henry! I snapped as Emma read the note. How is she planning on getting in?!? Lady Bell looked over. They don't know? Know what? Hayes- I sighed and shook my head. How do I bloody explain this?

We were on land, we couldn't get back to the ship since it had been storming when we made a camp. Father and Harry had already gone to sleep, I had started too but I heard something. Music. I sat up and shook Harry some. Wake up. What? He muttered I frowned. There's music. Go back to sleep Hayes. Don't you hear it? You're dreaming Hayes, there is no music. I looked down as he went back to sleep. I bit the inside of my lip and stood up

Hayes

I had been walking for awhile. I had started listening to music on my Walkman not really thinking about anything when I tripped and fell. I held in a scream, and just blinked a couple times to convince myself not to cry. I turned to see what I had tripped on, and saw an unconscious Felix. Felix? I looked over at what was next to me. It was Neal's jacket. No, Neal's dead. I muttered, before I turned and shook Felix. Wake up! I heard something rustling in the forest. Felix! Something came out I stood grabbing his arm and dragging him away, or trying too. I backed up to close to an edge. I let go of him as I started to fall backwards something grabbed me fell with me. It was just a short roll down a hill and onto the beach. Hayes?!? I looked at Felix who had taken the brunt of the fall I was laying on top of him. Fel? What happened how did we get here? You were knocked out cold on a path. And I dragged you away from a possible impending doom. I said standing up. He winced as he touched the corner of his head and I saw a bruis on his head, and red spot on his cheek. How did you- Baelfire. What? He's back, he broke out of my custody. But that's not possible, he should be dead. I said and he frowned and looked me up and down and raised an eyebrow. Why are you dressed like that? Like what? What are you planning? Nothing. I said walking off and he laughed some. You're going to actually try to sneak into Pan's camp? To get the boy? What I do is my business. I snapped and he squinted. Fine, have fun finding your way back. He said before walking off.

I peaked into Pan's camp, the boys were all dancing around a fire. There was a drum now but what I had been hearing was a flute. I leaned a little closer. I frowned as Pan looked up he was still playing, but he raised an eyebrow, hiding a slight smirk, before he went back to facing the boys and playing.

I made it to the camp. Felix turned from Pan and smirked shaking his head as I pulled my mask up. He said something to Pan who squinted and walked over. What are you doinghere? I looked over at Pan who smirked. Coming to save Henry, very daring of you. You've already taken one brother from me. I said and he looked over. Do you still hear it? I swallowed and he smirked. BOYS! They all stopped Henry turned frowning. Tonight is a very special night, not only do we have our savior, but one of ours came back. He pulled my mask down, which made my hood come down. Our very own lost girl, welcome home Hayes.

I went to go towards the camp but someone grabbed me back. Are you insane?!? Father snapped I shrunk down. But they have music, a flute. He looked up frowning slightly. Hayes, there is no music. I could tell he was lying but I didn't know why. But father- captain, what a lovely surprise. I just came to retrieve Hayes. You know I'm very shocked she can hear my flute, that is a first. Father picked me up he seemed very uptight. I was hoping it'd be him. He said gesturing to Harry. We're going to our ship now. Dad said backing up and Pan laughed some. That's fine, but you need to know, she is a lost one, and they always find their way back here.

Hayes what're you doing here?!? Henry snapped and I looked over. Trying to save you. I snapped lightly he frowned. But how? I shook my head. Isn't it obvious? I got in, I can get out. Hayes, you're a lost one. I looked down and swallowed. It's not as bad as it looks. I said sitting down next to him. How long have you been one? Since I was four. He pulled his lips in and I nodded. Yeah, I know. What did your dad do? I laughed some shaking my head. It wasn't dad who made me thus. It was my mom. I realized that day what no kid should realize. What did you realize? Isn't it obvious? Felix asked jumping out of a tree. I looked up at the sky smirking. Hello Felix. I stood up shaking my head. Don't. Or what? You'll curse us? From what I understood She realized-  I stepped forward to playfully smack at Felix but the wind picked up and I saw dust flying

I woke up, laying somewhat on Felix. He had an arm around me. He looked at me and shoved me away both of us sitting up. He flushed as I looked around. Where's Henry?!? I snapped Pan looked at us. Well, the dark one, and his son took him. I frowned. Neal's really alive? I asked and Felix looked over at me. I told you. We need to go get what's ours. Felix and I stood but looked down he quickly let go of my hand and I did as well, before wiping it off as his hand had been pretty sweaty. Anyway we made it back to our camp. Thankfully dad and the others weren't here. Hopefully they weren't looking for me. I saw Neal, my jaw dropped some. He looked at me some as Felix picked Henry up. Hayes? What're you doing with him? I clenched my jaw. Hayes, go with Felix back to camp. Hayes, don't do this! I turned around my back facing him. Hay! You're better than this! Think about Harry! I looked back at him before walking off.

I sat down next to Felix. What? He asked looking over at me. I see a bunch of boys dancing and having fun, but you never do. He looked over at me and raised an eyebrow. Why? I don't dance. Uh huh. I looked over as I heard Music. It's weird hearing it again. Hearing what? I looked over at Felix frowning. You can't- he put a finger to his lips. I pulled my lips in. Stop bugging me. He said as Pan came over who looked at me and smirked as Henry could hear it this time. I should have known. Henry had been left behind adopted by Regina, and well the Emma and Regina rivalry since then had messed with him and Neal he thought he was dead. I should have know it was only a matter of time.
