Love's Awakening

Chapter 2

Anna's P.O.V

"Anna?"

"No Anna, you can't go, you can't leave me. I won't let you!"

"Anna, please. Open your eyes. Anna, open your eyes!"

I gasp and awaken with a jolt. It was a dream? It couldn't have been, the pain was too real. I look down at my chest to see no arrow or any signs of me stabbing myself with one. Could have been a dream? No, you can't feel pain in dreams, can you? Felix's voice was so clear, so broken. Why did it have to be this way? Why does it always have to be the good guys that have to suffer.

"Felix! She's gone!" Pan? I look around me to see the familiar trees of Neverland's forest, but no Pan or Felix. What is going on?

 "No! No! She isn't gone. Anna! You're not leaving me."

"Felix?!" I shout. Where is his voice coming from? Why does it sound so distant?

"This is all your fault." Who's fault? Wait..."You killed her!" I'm listening to their conversation. I'm not dead. It's like I'm in a coma, but I can walk around am I am in the same place as the boys, but in a different dimension?

"Don't you think I know that?! Don't you see what this has done to me, knowing that she killed herself to get away from me, to save you?" Okay, I think I just swallowed my own vomit. How could the universe hate me so much to make him my 'true love'? What have I ever done to the world to make it hate me this much? I want so much to punch him in the face, but I can't find him! Do you know how frustrating that is?!

"What it has done to you?! She is dead! The only person I have ever loved killed herself because you gave her no other option!" This is killing me- if that is possible. Why am I being forced to listen to this? Hearing Felix's broken voice hurts more than having the arrow shoved in my chest. I look around me to see if I can find any indication that I am not alone or that I am in the same place as Felix, but I am alone here, in my own bubble of depressiveness.

"And now I am going to kill you." He's going to finish it. He's going to finish what I started. I knew there was a reason why I loved that boy. I wish I could be standing by his side while he killed the evil that roams a place that was once happy and full of light. I wish I could kiss him and tell him that I love him, but I can't and I don't know if I ever will. I hear a gasp as I guess Felix kills Pan. Is it wrong that I feel relief that someone has just my true love? I think it might be, but you know what? At this point in time, I really couldn't care less.

"I guess it has been a long time since you have felt pain. It was a bad idea putting your heart out like that Pan, especially when you knew she didn't love. Who could? A monster like you doesn't deserve to have someone destined for them so perfect like Anna. She deserved so much better." I feel a tear slip down my cheek at his words. He thinks that I am perfect. I look up at the sky to see if there is answer as to where I am exactly, but there is nothing; it just looks like a normal Neverland sky. How can this be possible?! How can I be somewhere else and yet still here their voices?

 "I-I was her...her true love." I hear Pan gasp. He isn't dead yet?

 "To hell you are!" I scream, even though I know that they can't hear me.

"Yeah, and how did that work out?" I just know that he is looking at me. I know that he is trying to show Pan what he has done to me, what he made me do.

"You aren't the one that is going to have to take her body back to the people who put their trust in me to keep her safe. She put her trust in me and you ruined it. You ruined everything, and now you are going to pay for what you have done to her."I feel sleepy all of a sudden, like someone has just blew poppy powder in my face. What is going on? I stumble over to a tree to steady myself but miss and fall to the floor, why do I feel so dizzy and so...broken. Before I can even contemplate anything more, darkness overtakes me.

Crack!

My eyes snap open and I quickly jump from the floor and run behind a tree. I didn't know I could run that fast; I am so proud of myself! Concentrate, possible threat behind this tree. Right. I peak a look behind the tree to see a face I never thought I would see here in a million years- wherever here is for the matter.

"Regina." I whisper, not knowing whether or not she can hear me. I see her turn around suddenly, showing me that she can in fact hear me. Well, this just got interesting. Maybe she 'died' as well.

"Regina help me." I whisper a little louder this time. She starts to spin around in a circle, hoping to see someone and I have to bite my hand to stop myself from laughing at her. Memories of me and Charming in the woods, training floods through my mind. I quickly shake my head to get rid of the images and turn my attention back to Regina. I look around me to try and find a place where it would be easier to talk to her, but I can't see- the peak! Perfect!

"Go to the peak." I tell her. As soon as I see the command register in her mind, I blink us up to the top of the peak. There are some pros of having to live with Pan for so long.

"Regina." I whisper in her ear. I see her jump and quickly turn around and the look of shock intensives on her face.

"Anna? But-but..." she stutters. Oh for God's sake. This is going to be a long talk.

"I'm not dead Regina. You have to stop them." I tell her bluntly. There is no point in stalling, I don't know how long I am going to have her here for.

"This is a dream. It has to be. I saw your body Anna." She panics. I can tell that her breathing and heart rate have picked up I don't need her having a panic attack on me right now!

"Oh for Christ sake Regina, I am not bloody dead, but I can't wake up. I have tried and tried but I can't. I can hear you guys, I could hear Felix crying, but I couldn't wake up, I couldn't move. You have to get Rumple to look at me, check what is wrong with me. You can't let them bury me."

 "How do I know that you are actually alive and you aren't just a dream?" she questions. Narrowing her eyes at me. Yep, this is definitely going to take a while.

 "If you don't start listening to me I am going to torch a hole in you!" I growl, losing my patience with her.

"Go ahead, it won't hurt anyway, it is just a dream." She challenges me, and who am I to deny a challenge?

"After you wake up, tell everyone that I'm not dead." And with that I throw a fire ball at her, hitting her right arm. Her face contorts into pain before she disappears in a flash.

I hope this works.
