A/n: I'm sorry if it's a bit crappy. it came out of my mind like this and I can't make it different. Maybe in a later stage but not now, sorry. but if you liked it please vote and comment.


While I was sinking I tried to unbound my hands. I tried to swim back to the surface, but something was dragging me down. I looked down and saw that there was an anchor bound to my leg. I was so busy trying to free myself that I forgot that I was underwater. I breathed in and water filled my lungs. I coughed causing my lungs to fill with more water. After a while I couldn't breath and I started to lose my conscious. I was sinking lower and lower while I lost my conscious.

I woke up couching. I looked around and saw two man staring at me.
"Where am I? Who are you?" I shot up.
"I am Nemo, this is Liam and you're on the Nautalis. We found you on the bottom of the sea."
"Thank you."
"Liam will lead you to a spare room with fresh clothes."
"Thanks again." I followed Liam, the Nautalis was an impressive vessel.
"This is your room, and by the way, what is your name?" I looked at him nervously.
"Kim, Kim sir."
"And Kim, are you from this land?"
"Yes, yes I am."
"Alright, tomorrow we are going on land." He walked away. I looked at the room, it was a small room with a bed, a desk with a chair and a drawer. I opened the drawer and saw a sweater and a pair of jeans in it. I laid down and starred at the celling, my life is really fucked up. I have a father who is as stubborn as me, my ex-boyfriend tried to rape me and my current boyfriend, well, what can I say. While I was thinking I slowly fell asleep.

I woke up and saw a plate of food standing on the desk. I ate it quickly and went to find a way out of this vessel.
"Good morning Kim, have you had a good sleep?" Nemo asked me.
"I slept excellent, and the food was delicious. But can I go on land?"
"Yes, I heard you belong there, and it was nice to know you Kim."
"Again thanks for saving me captain Nemo." I shook his hand and went back on land. I looked around and was relieved to see the streets of Storybrooke. I walked a bit and went to the forest. I didn't know where I would stay but I thought the woods would be nice place.

It was a couple days later when I saw Henry walking in the woods. I jumped out of my tree, right behind Henry. He was shocked and fell, I laughed while he stood up.
"That wasn't funny." He mocked.
"Oh, I'm terribly sorry, but I didn't know you would fall." I said smiling, he turned around and he hugged me tight.
"Air, Henry, air."
"Sorry, I just can't believe you are standing here."
"Henry I'm immortal remember." I winked at him, he was about to leave but he stopped.
"About two days there will be a ball, are you coming?"
"I would love too but,"
"But what?" "I can't dance."
"I can teach you."
"That would be awesome." He got his phone and putted on some music.
"Hold my hand like this, and place your other hand here. Right, when I say it you step back with your left foot and follow my lead." I nodded, I was nervous. I did what Henry told me but I still stood on his toes a couple times. At the end of the day I could dance.
"It begins to get dark I need to get home, bye Alena."
"Bye Henry, oh and please don't tell anyone that I am alive, I want it to be a secret." He nodded and left, I went back in the tree where I sat all day. The next day I decided to pick a dress.
"That isn't a ball gown." I looked up and saw Henry.
"Hey little brother, well what can I say."
"Let me help you, here." He showed me pictures on his phone of ball gowns. I waved my hands and in a blink of an eye I was wearing a green ball gown (see top picture). The top was covert with green lace and the bottom was just plain green.
"That is amazing."
"Thanks, see ya tomorrow."
"Tomorrow." And he left again.

I walked nervously to the place where the ball was. I walked around and everywhere I looked a saw people dancing. I was trying to find my father but I failed. I walked around a bit more and even drank a glass of champagne. Another song was played, I saw Emma dancing with her dad. Which meant that my father must be here to. I wandered further around and then I saw my father. I walked to him and stood next to him.
"Why aren't you dancing?" I asked him.
"This is the father-daughter dance, but sadly my daughter isn't here."
"If I may ask, why isn't she here?"
"That' something I'd rather not tell."
"Well, all I can say is that she might be closer than you think." He looked me in the eye and I smiled.
"Well in that case, would you like to dance?" He held out his hook.
"I would love too." We started to dance and for the first in a long time I felt happy.
"Love, how did you learn to dance?" My father asked.
"Well I had a very good teacher." I answered while I winked at Henry. When the music stopped, we all clapped. David walked on the little stage and grape a microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we gather here together because one of our family gave her live to save us." He spoke, I looked at me dad and he looked at me.
"Should I do something?" I asked him quietly.
"I suppose." While David spoke further I walked to the stage until I stood before it.
"Are there people who want to say something about Alena Jones?" He ended.
"I would like to say something." I said loudly. David looked at me and helped me on the little stage and gave me the microphone.
"When I saw my father again, I never expected that he was part of a new family. What I least expected was that, that family accepted me as I was. With me flaws and my history and what I really wanted to say is..." I looked at my father and went further. "that I never expected that they, my family, would honor me in a way like this. And for that I want to thank my family." I bowed while I took a tear away. David came to me and took the microphone, he wanted to say something but my dad stopped him.
"She really is alive." My dad said him while he petted David on his shoulder.
"Well, in that case. Welcome back Alena, I'm glad you're alive." David said while he hugged me. I walked with my dad to the rest of the family. After they all gave me a hug and I danced with David, I saw someone familiar. I walked towards the person, I was close when he turned.
"There you are, I searched everywhere for you." Peter said.
"Can we talk outside?"
"Why?"
"Just because I say so." I said, he didn't want to follow me but still he did.
"So now we're outside what do you want to say?" He looked at me expecting I wanted to kiss him.
"I want to ask you to leave."
"What, why, I haven't done anything!"
"No it's not that, I just want to have a moment with my family."
"So I'm not important anymore for you."
"Peter, don't you dare to think that!"
"You made me think it!"
"It's just. I had a rough time with my father, and I want to make it right."
"Alright see ya tomorrow." Peter left, I wanted to stop him but I didn't. I walked back inside up to my dad. After I while I forgot the argument with Peter and had a magical night.
