The Mighty Shall Fall | Peter Pan OUAT

| chapter 3 |

My head spun at the words he just said.. "Who is HIM?" I said in shock.. "he's just a boy!" I slung my coat on the floor. "He was just helping me inside! He saved my life!" Why was he acting like this?

"You're a stupid girl! Don't pretend you don't know who he is!" He yelled slamming me against a wall..

"William I honestly don't know-"

"Save it!" He grabbed my wrists and began to drag me out the door "you're being locked away immediately! Your father won't be too pleased!" I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I didn't speak another word, he wouldn't believe me anyway.

I was brought to the damp cell in the dungeon.. It smelled like days old garbage and water was everywhere.. I looked around at the men who were kept here. Some without eyes, and others without teeth.. How long had they been here? I was thrown into the cell and my head hit the wall.. The last thing I remember before blacking out was "Tell Father I'm innocent"

Days had passed.. I waited on my fathers return. I cried at The thought of father seeing his beautiful little girl with mud on her face, her clothes ripped, her bones showing on her ribcage. Everyday I begged I was innocent, and I begged for them to let me go.

The usual water and bread servant came. He secretly gave me more than the rest, but it was never enough. I'm sure my eyes had circles under them by now, from lack of rest.. "Pl-please" I begged "when will father see me?" I held tight to the bars that separated me and the servant.. "He is making his journey today.." And he walked away..

I cried. This wasn't like the time I cried because I didn't have food, or I ripped my dress. No, I cried at the mere fact I was a princess locked away inside her own castle.

Soon I heard someone coming down stairs.. "F-father?" I said jumping back up to the bars..

"Not exactly.." His devilish smirk crossed his lips.. "Miss me?"

I leaned back, letting a tear fall.. "Go away! I order you to go!" I yelled and he only laughed.

"You're not a princess anymore! Your crown has been ripped away.." At the point I was sobbing. This boy I met by chance has ruined my life in literally a night's time. He came and set down next to the bars.. "I have a way you can get out of this.." He said referring to my traitorship. "I want nothing to do with-" "Run away with me"

I raised an eyebrow "excuse me?" He got on his knees and came face to face with me.. "Come with me!"

"You think I'd just betray my own father?" He laughed.. "You already have! Just by having this tiny little conversation.."

I got closer to the him, peeking my head a tiny bit out of the bars. I studied his face for a moment, and I mean every inch of it. Maybe it was for viewing pleasure. I'm not saying it wasn't, but something was odd about him.

"Who are you? I know you're Peter Pan, but who are you really?"

"Your ticket to freedom.." He said getting close to my face as well..

I thought. I thought for what seemed like centuries before giving an answer.. "I'll go.. But may I leave my father a note.. Just to let him know I am alright?" He nodded his hand and took out a piece of paper and pen from his pocket. It's like he used magic to pull it right out.. I grabbed the paper and pressed it against the bar. I told father that I was alright and that he needed not to worry..

"There" I said handing it back to Peter.. He unlocked my door when a man screamed.. "Guards she's out!"

I heard hundreds of footsteps coming from the stairs.. "Let's go! Grab my hand!" I quickly held his hand tight, And in a poof we were gone.
