Sienna's P.O.V
My heart pounded forcefully. I ran furiously towards Pan, I didn't know very well why, but I needed to stop him. He couldn't go again, and leave me alone. Not after that.

     I swiftly stretched out my arm, willing to grab his own, but he vanished before I could touch him. I let out a yell of frustration and fell to my knees weakly. Slowly, I felt how my anger and wrath turned into sorrow and misery. I had just watched how my parents abandoned me.

     I had lived it. And all what Pan had thought about after that was kissing me. A kiss, really? Why would he ever do that? Perhaps he wanted to bring my guard down. I wasn't letting him do that, there was no way I would do that. I couldn't trust him, not anymore.

     I wasn't going to fall for him, for his darkness. That kiss meant nothing.

     "Milah, Killian." I whispered under my breath. Those names kept on echoing in my mind, not apparently willing to leave, nor wanted it I though. They were my parents' name. The ones I had always thought that abandoned me because they didn't want me; that's why I felt unloved, lost. But knowing their names changed nothing. I still felt lost. I was lost.

     Perhaps I wasn't going to fall for Pan's tricks, but it all was starting to feel safer to me on that island. And perhaps, I was going to become a real Lost Girl.

     Something came to my mind out of the blue.

     "Killian Jones." I said out loud. "The Captain of the Jolly Roger." I widened my eyes in shock. "The Pirate's Cove." I recalled Pan's words as my mouth fell wide open. 'A puzzle to solve', Pan's echoed in my mind.

     Next stop: Pirate's Cove. My answers. My past.

     I stood up, suddenly forgetting all my pain. It was time to lay the cards on the table.


Pan's P.O.V
I glanced around, looking for him.

     "You're back." his voice said behind me. I turned around.

     "Let's talk there, Felix." I demanded heading the woods as Felix gave me a silent and obedient nod. He was the only person on the camp I could trust, and I couldn't allow anyone to hear what I needed to tell him. As we reached the woods, he spoke again.

     "Did you talk to Baelfire?" Felix said and I nodded to him.

     "Yes, and he took my deal." I smirked proudly. "I knew he couldn't resist it. The Darlings is all he has." Felix smirked back and I changed the subject. "I went to see him while Sienna was, huh, unconscious."

     "So did she finally find out?" Felix asked cautiously. I slightly flinched at her thought, but didn't show it.

     "Yeah." I answered. "I gave her some memory potion." Felix stared back, waiting for me to continue. "She found out about Milah and Hook. Not as Hook, the one-handed pirate though, but as Killian Jones, the two-handed Jolly Roger's Captain."

     Felix frowned confusedly. "You didn't show her what happened next, did you?" I shook my head, pursing my lips. "So she doesn't know that he's on the island?"

     "She's not ready yet, Felix." I said through gritted teeth, unnecessarily though.

     "But you sent her to the Pirate's Cove anyway." I smirked at him. Felix knew me too well.

     "You know me, I like action." I replied and he chuckled deviously, but his smirk soon faded.

     "Pan, can I ask you something?" Felix asked cautiously and I raised an eyebrow waiting for his question. "I know she went to the Skull Rock. Did she see... well, the hourglass?"

     I widened my eyes, startled. I really didn't expect that question, but I reacted quickly. "I used a Hiding Spell, so she won't know about that for the moment. I'll tell her when we grow, huh... closer."

     Felix raised his gaze until he met my eyes, what he immediately regretted. Even my best Lost Boy feared me, but not my Lost Girl. I loved that sass of her. "So does she eventually trust you, Pan?" Felix asked again.

     I frowned at him, not very sure of what to answer. "Still going through that." I finally stated. "But trust me Felix, she will soon." I actually was unsure if that kiss had meant something to her, hopefully it would. Felix seemed to read my mind.

     "Something happened between you two." it felt more like a statement than a question. That made me feel nervous, and Felix could sense it.

     I frowned at him, but deep inside I was struggling not to tell him about the kiss. I couldn't. That would make me look weak, but she brought that side of me to the surface. The game was far to finish yet. And I was going to bring Sienna down to my darkness, and she wouldn't escape it. Moreover, she would want to stay.

     I lifted my gaze to see Felix staring at me with a dumb smile across his face. I knew what he was thinking, and couldn't bear it. I shot him a deadly look. "You'd better keep your mouth shut, Felix." I hissed sharply and he looked down, regretting his last actions. "Come on, I have some issues to attend to."
