Lost Girl {Sequel to Wonderstruck} [ OUAT Fanfic ]

Eighteen: Anticipations

Chapter 18

Dani's POV

Devin sat in front of me with a cocky grin and a sense of sadness in his eyes. He seemed different, in the exterior, cool and collected, but on the inside, there was something off, but I ignored it. "Why are you doing this, Devin?" I asked, gritting my teeth.

"Hm, well it may have to do with the fact that your boyfriend killed me!"

I scoffed. "The only reason he killed you was because you harmed me!"

He moved closer to my bamboo cage. "You're wrong, pretty girl, I never tried to hurt you."

I recalled the time where Devin attempted to kill me with a certain poison known as Dreamshade. Although Peter healed me, I was upset that I never got revenge on Devin before Peter killed him.

"Alright," he said, defeated, "maybe once. But you were never my target. Pan was." His stare turned stone cold.

I simply chuckled. "You failed tremendously at that, bud."

He arched his eyebrow, his cold stare turning to a fake confused glance. "Did I? As I recall, he still ended up dead, weather it was my fault or not. But dead Pan is best Pan."

"You should re-evaluate your thoughts if you think Peter is going to die again," I snapped with a smirk.

Devin simply shrugged, looking away for a moment into the dark woods. "Maybe he won't, maybe he will. History has a tendency to repeat itself."

"Then you'll find yourself dying once again to Pan's will."

When I spoke, he snapped back into reality, scooting himself up closer to my cage, his face red with anger heating within him. "And you, Dani, will find yourself alone on an island where all of your loved ones die. Who's going to die first is the real question. Maybe your new boy toy? Nah, his brother would be the one to save him. Hmm.. Pan seems like the obvious choice, but he's not the one who you truly care for yet. No, the person who will die first will be your precious daughter."

My muscles tense as I gripped the bars tightly, trying to push them out.

"Aeris, was it? I've heard that she's a strong fighter, like her father, but naïve, like her foolish mother."

I was scrambling to shove through the bars. I wanted to punch his face in out of my rage. "You touch her and I'll kill you myself."

Devin smiled wickedly. "Oh, sweet Dani, I won't be the only one to hurt her. A certain siren would be just as pleased to do the job as I would be. She should know, love in Neverland is dangerous and can get you killed."

Aeris' POV

Me and the boy circled each other suspiciously, neither of us willing to back down.

"Who are you?" He questioned.

"I asked you first. Obviously you're a lost boy." I reminded the hooded figure.

"Name's Felix. Your turn to introduce yourself."

"Aeris."

"Never heard of you."

"Likewise."

We both stayed on the defense, not trusting each other's intentions. It was quiet for a moment, but I broke the silence.

"Why are you here?"

"What do you think?" He snorted. "I died here!"

"Died here? Just like Peter did..." I whispered under my breath, confusion overflowing my expression. I hope Felix didn't hear me, but, just my luck, he did.
