A Story That Will Never Die {Henry Mills/OUAT} [2]

Lost Girl

Hook, David, Mary-Margret, Emma, and I were navigating our way through the forest on Neverland. What I want to know is why Pan's hideout had to be so far away? And in the middle of nowhere?! He could've at least made it a little easier on us. Anyways, David was in front of the group, using his sword to knock down some of the plants that were in out way. Hook was behind him and pointing us in the direction to go. He's pretty much the only one who knows where to see Pan's hideout. 

"The ridge is just a few hundred paces up ahead." Hook said to us.

"You really think we're gonna be able to see Pan's hideout?" Emma asked the pirate.

"From there, we should be able to see everything, including where he's keeping your son." Hook replied.

"You know, I could have just poofed us up here in an instant." Regina said. Now that I think about it so could I! Here I am, walking while my legs are really tired and I could have just used my magic to get myself there!

"Where? Have you any idea what's up here or anywhere? There are dangers all about. Only I can guide us past them." Hook said. Well, there he goes ruining my dreams.

"He's right. Hook's lived here before. If he says hiking up is the best way, then we listen." Emma said to all of us.

"Yeah, but do we really have to walk nonstop?" I asked the blonde, groaning. Emma gave me a look and I sighed, walking a little ahead of the two women behind me. David was slashing his sword to cut the plants. He raised his sword to cut down another one, but Hook grabbed his arm.

"No. No!" Hook shouted.

David got his arm out of Hook's grip and stared at the man, "I can handle a couple of thorns."

"That's dreamshade. It's not the thorns you have to worry about. It's the poison they inject you with. This plant is the source of the toxins I used on the Dark One." Hook explained to the group.

"The poison that almost killed Gold?" Emma asked. I'm pretty sure he already answered that question.

"Indeed. I used a concentrated dose. In its natural form, death would be much slower and far more painful. I suggest we go this way." Hook said, pointing to the right side of us. I swear, the way he explained that to us made me feel like I was in school. I do not like school.

"We'll go this way." David said, pointing to the left of us. David, Mary-Margret, and Regina walked in the direction David pointed in. I looked between the two groups and decided to follow behind Regina.

"Up here! We made it." David shouted. The place we were at was a huge mountain. There were rocky mountains in front of us too. The peaks looked like they could stab someone easily. I would never go skydiving here if I was a skydiver.

"Pan's lair should be just...right..." Hook was cut off.

"Where? All I see is jungle." Regina asked.

"Aye. The Dark Jungle." Hook said, getting out his telescope.

"Well, isn't that a happy name." I stated, sarcastically.

"It's, uh, grown so much since I last stepped foot in Neverland." Hook stated. And when was that? 50 years ago?

Regina sighed, "So this nature hike was for nothing." I walked all that way and worked myself to the limit... for nothing?! I need a well deserved nap right now and no one better bother me or I swear to God, I will hit them.

"Hook may have led us astray, but at least we're in a good position to start combing the jungle." David said, obviously looking on the bright side.
