Lost In Neverland

Rose Red

Emma let out a breath of relief as Zero placed her in the stream. A smile graced her face.
"My ankle feels better!" Emma exclaimed as she stood and twirled on spot. Both Neal and Zero laughed.

"Glad to see you're not in pain but don't you want to heal the rest of your cuts?" Baelfire asked and Emma shook her head.
"Nope." She told him bluntly as she brushed hair out of her face
showing off her black eye and gash on her cheek.

Baelfire and Zero shared a look then Zero approached Emma slowly.
"Why's that Emma?" He asked with a smile and Emma grinned brightly.
"Because I want my parents to see what that jerk did to me, now you boys ready to go?" She asked slyly.

Both boys smiled as they began to follow Emma.
------------------------------------------------
As they walked they followed the water and Emma gasphed when she made eye contact with a young girl who had blue hair and blue eyes. Water was swirling around her eyes focused on it.
"Hey!" Emma yelled making the water drop around her and the girl studied Emma intently.

"Salutations." She muttered and Emma frowned
"I'm Emma, what're you doing?" Emma asked the girl who tilted her head to the side.
"My name is Layla I am the one that keeps the water flowing and magical." She explained softly.

"Whoah! That's cool, I'm eleven almost twelve. How old are you?" Layla snorted at Emma's observation.
"Thank-you but I am thirteen and since this is my power, I am where Pan decided to put me." She told Emma and Emma smiled.

"Um Layla, you haven't happend to see a group of people around here have you?" Emma asked and Layla shook her head.
"No I'm afraid I have not, but there is a woman that Peter took away from the enchanted forest. It was a rather long time ago. I'd say twenty-eight years ago." She told Emma who was leaning forward in anticipation.

"Where is she at? What's her name?" Emma asked hopefully. Layla smiled slightly her eyes twinkling.
"Follow this path to a underwater cave it is supposed to be secret but I know you'll all be able to find the way. If someone comes by here I shall send them your way.....oh the woman's name is Rose Red."
