"I Just Wanted To Be Loved"

While Peter was off convincing Henry why he belongs in Neverland, Silas was following The 'Charming' Family with Draco.

He sat in a tree with Dray beside him watching as his fathers face only ever changed from blank to pure rage, but only when he looked at a specific person.

The woman with short black hair.

"Father,"

Silas quickly glanced at his son before continuing to watch the group below, "yes dragon?"

Draco took a minute to think about what he wanted to ask, "what was that? Back there with the new boy? Who's His grandmother?"

He watched as Silas went rigid, jaw clenching behind the hood, eyes turning even more sharp.

"That woman ruined my life once upon a time."

Draco stayed quiet, letting his father finally rant to someone other than His papa about his past.

"Did I ever tell you I used to be a prince, dragon?" He looked over towards his son, who could see pride swimming in his fathers eyes, "I was the next in line for the throne. The kingdom told me that I was going to do great things when I became ruler, I gave my people everything they could ask for, food, jobs, clothes for their children, anything." He smiled as he thought back to those days, until his face fell.

"Then she came along." He scowled

"Snow White. 'The fairest of them all', such a load of bullshit. The kingdom loved her more than me, they didn't even try to hide it. 'Oh snow, you'll make such a beautiful Queen,' 'Snow! You make this kingdom such a wonder.' I was left in the shadows, watching as everyone fainted for just a little time with Snow White." He glanced at Draco, "I started to ignore my people, began training with some of the guards in fighting techniques when my father rejected teaching me like he was her."

"He came to me one night, saying he had important news about my coronation, where I was to revive the crown now that I was 17. He told me, 'I cannot allow you to rule this kingdom Silas, the people don't respond to you positively anymore, they don't want you. They want Snow."

Draco watched as tears formed in Silas's eyes.

"My kingdom, my own father." His voice broke at the end, "didn't want me anymore," his eyes turned into stone, "they wanted her. Perfect little Snow Mary White! They treated me like a villain"

"Dad" Draco scooted over on the tree, closer to his father, wrapping his arms around him as tears filled his little eyes.

"I just wanted to be loved Dragon, was that so wrong?" He sobbed into his sons shoulder, no longer watching as the Charming family continued to walked away.

"No dad no, me and Papa love you with all our hearts! The lost boys love you, we will always love you!"

Silas smiled as he tightened his hold on his kid. He was so thankful for Peter bringing him here all those years ago, for giving him the gift of father hood, and the chance to rule his own kingdom.

"I love you so much Dragon, always remember that for me will you?" He pulled back from the young blonde to look him straight in the eyes, wanting his message to get across.

"I know dad" he smiled back.

————————————————————————

Silas did continue to follow the hero's around, watching what they were planning with Tinker bell, before heading home with Draco asleep on his back.

He walked into the camp to see Henry opening a scroll, with a picture of himself inside.

He smirked, as he realized that everything was falling into place. He took Draco into their tent, laying him down and planting a kiss on his forehead, before he left someone land in Neverland.

He quickly pulled his rag back over his mouth before rushing off to where the person landed. He could feel that it was an adult, and he knew exactly who it was.

As he finally made it there, he saw Felix chatting with him

Baelfire.

He never did meet the man, it was a little before his time, but he knew exactly who he was.

"They'll be so happy to see you."

Neal looked at Felix in confusion, "they?" Then he was knocked out cold from behind.

Felix looked to see who it was and jokingly whined, "Archer! I had him!" He never called Silas his real name outside of camp.

Silas smirked, "I know I know, but I'd rather he not try and give us any trouble, now pick his ass up and let's go." He turned and started heading in a certain direction.

"Feels like yesterday, you know? That I welcomed Baelfire to Neverland."

Silas just chuckled, "yea what was that like, 60 years ago, old man?"

Felix rolled his eyes, "look who's talking."

"You might be mentally older than me Felix, but I'm physically older and stronger, so watch it."

"Sir yes sir"

————————————————————————

They continued to walked around, waiting for Baelfire to wake up. They heard him groan before Silas nodded at Felix, and he dropped the adult onto the ground.

"The hell?" He mumbled as he finally got up, "who the hell are you?" He looked at the medium size boy with a hood on and mask over his face.

"This is the Archer, you'd know if you didn't leave Baelfire." Felix responded, standing in front of Silas.

Baelfire just rolled his eyes, "where are we going?" He wasnt answered, just shoved forward by Felix.

As they continued to walk, Felix continued to antagonize him.

Eventually Silas stopped paying attention until he heard a grunt and something fall down. He turned around to see Felix passed out and Baelfire standing with his fist up.

"Ya gonna hit me Ladie?" Silas chuckled before rolling up his sleeves. Neal looked to see millions of scars covering the boys arms. "I don't rely on a club to subdue my components."

Neal gulped, for the first time since he was younger, he was actually scared.

As him and Silas fought, he noticed that he wasn't going to win hand and hand with him. So he sneakily grabbed his knife from his pocket and when Silas dodge his hit, he swung his other arm around and sliced the Archer across the neck.

Silas fell down, holding his neck. He's been injured many times, but this would be the first where his throat was slit. He started coughing and Neal walked away.

"Sorry kid! You're just on the wrong side of a war."

Then Silas passed out.
