Aurelius stares as Pyper turns her back to him, her green and black hair whipping into his face, and saunters to the center of the camp. She sits down in a wooden nook of the tree above their hide-out, which almost looks like a throne.

She crosses her legs and leans back elegantly while keeping eye contact with the prince. In the meantime Mal, Ben, Jay and Carlos were all in their unpleasant predicaments, unable to stop the dangerous girl.

What none of them realized, not even Pyper, was what was happening in the sky high above them.

Evie was feeling a little sick, dangling so high in the sky without holding onto someone or have something to focus on. Floating besides her were Doug, Jane and Fairy Godmother. They have a perfect sight on the campment, including to the difficult predicament that their friends were in.

Fairy Godmother sighs deeply, lowering her head. "We have to do it," the fairy says. She raises her wand, but Evie's hand on her arm stops her momentarily.

"Not yet. We still have time."

Fairy Godmother narrows her eyes at the younger girl. "We have Ben's orders," she reminds her. Evie nods her head. She knows Ben has given them orders in case anything goes wrong in their plan, but it truly was a last resort. She wouldn't want to move onto Plan B too hastily.

"I know, but maybe we still have other options. Maybe Aurelius can still talk to her," the blue haired girl says, trying to convince both Fairy Godmother and herself that was still a possibility.

Fairy Godmother looks less convinced "Evie, as much as I believe that everyone can redeem themselves, one must first be willing in order to do so. Pyper is just out for power and revenge."

"But.. to do this.. it is irreversible."

The older woman stares solemnly at the green island that spread miles below their feet. "I am aware of the consequences, Evie. But separating Neverland from all of us is the only way to put a definite stop to Pyper and her father. Ben knows that, you were there when he ordered it."

They found the Portal to the Isle of the Lost in the Queen of Hearts' palace. Ben observes the wooden bookcase that was situated in a small chamber behind the throne room. It curved upwards at the top and had the Queen's signature, a crowned heart, etched into it.

It was only due to the Queen's guards that they found it. Ben had to agree it was a well hidden spot, also close in case the Queen would need a quick, swift escape.

Ben turns around to face his friends.

"We don't have much time, but before we go after her we must have a back-up plan," he says.

He already had his mind made up.

His friends look at him with narrowed eyes. "I can see you already have something in mind," Mal says, approaching her boyfriend. She takes his hand into hers, their finger entwining naturally. "Tell us," she encourages him.

Ben takes a deep breath. He knew his decision was not one to take lightly. It was truly their last option, but if Pyper could not be defeated once and for all it might be the only thing to stop her.

"It will take sacrifice, but to be truly safe from them might be worth it in dire circumstances. I propose we do what we have done to the Isle of the Lost. We put a barrier around it not even they can break."

Fairy Godmother grows sickeningly pale. Others glance at each other with looks of confusion on their faces.

"But.. Ben, the reason we never did this is that, without Neverland, we will be cut off from magic. My wand, all those items of great importance in the museum.. they will all be lost."
