Back in the House With the Family

        "Honey, dear. The Captain's Daughter isn't a real person." The mom tries to calm her daughter, who was still waiting for the show to come back on. "There is an actor that is just playing a character."

        The daughter shook her head, her curls bouncing on her head. "No, she's real!" 

        "Yes, it's a real person playing-"

        "No! She's real, that's why whenever she messes up they have to stop the show." The girl cries out before dashing to her room, the parents looking at each other. 

        "I know it's not possible to think that's what's happening, but..." The mom trailed off, both of them glancing at the TV, the show finally coming back on. 

In The Show~ New Orleans~ Bailey's P.O.V:

        We finally reached the cemetery, the throbbing in my head going away for a few moments. I ran forward, spotting Ava and Jonah near a gravestone, Jonah holding onto his little sister. "Oh my god you two." I knelt down next to them, pulling them into a giant bear hug, probably squishing them a little. "Are you hurt?" I ask them both, and they shake their heads. 

        "I'm sorry, mom, I just wanted to get you the page back." Ava whispered, tears coming from her eyes as she clutched back onto me. "I wanted your story to be complete."         

        "It's okay, baby. It's okay." I whisper against the top of her head, pulling Jonah into the hug as well. "But don't you dare ever think about doing that again." 

        "Oh, they won't." It was a deep voice that spoke, and suddenly my children were gone, and the only thing I could see were two gravestones that read 'Jonah Pan' and 'Ava Pan'.  I crawl away from it, screaming as I ran into something behind me, more tombstones suddenly appearing around me, and I began to see all of my loved ones' names plastered on them. 

        "Give me my children back!" I scream, standing up and throwing a ball of energy towards a shadowy figure, but it was only just the shadow. 

        "We would, but we needed some more sacrifices, and they're the only ones we have right now." The voice laughs. 

        "No! No, take me instead. Let them live. Take me instead." I plead, trying to find an opening around all of the tombstones circling me. My body then collapsed to the ground, shaking and spasming. 

        "Get him in here." 

        "No, this is our chance."

        "Where's the other ones?"

        "They've escaped with Felix."

        "Are you sure?"

        "Yes, she's the only one left." 

        "Okay, but quick."

Present Time~ Third P.O.V:

        The two adults in the house watched as the character Captain's Daughter fell to the ground in the cemetery, before the screen went black, but they still heard people talking, but it wasn't people on the show. 

        "Get him in here." 

        "No, this is our chance."

        "Where's the other ones?"

        "They've escaped with Felix."

        "Are you sure?"

        "Yes, she's the only one left." 

        "Okay, but quick."

        "What's happening?" The mother questions.

        "The Captain's Daughter is getting rescued." The daughter whispered from behind them, holding her Minnie Mouse doll in her arms. "They're able to rescue her from the bad man."

        "What bad man, sweetie?" 

        "The Disney man."

        The screen suddenly changed, as if someone was waking up. The camera moved, showing a body that was restrained to a cold, steel table. There were two kids next to the table, unhooking the restraints as quietly as they could. They looked like.... a humanized version of Mickey and Minnie Mouse. "Come on." The Mickey boy whispered to the T.V. screen, tugging on a hand. "Your friends are waiting. But we have to hurry before he comes back." 

        He tugs again, and the camera looks down to see an I.V. in the person's arm, and the person stops moving to yank it from her arm, also yanking something away from her head, making the screen go black before the black and white static greeted the home in shock, both of the parents looking over at their child, who was hugging her Minnie Mouse doll closely. "You can do it, Minnie. You can save her."

Bailey's P.O.V:

        As I yanked the many wires away from my head, I stumbled after Mickey and Minnie, who led me through a giant maze. "Where are we?" 

        "We don't have time to explain right now." Minnie whispers back at me, pushing us back against the corner before pulling us forward after a group of doctors passed by. "Now listen, everything since your fight with Chernabog never happened. Walt Disney took you captive there in Storybrooke and brought you here." She pulled us out into the night, us sprinting now before any guards could spot us. "The life you have in your head... It was all fabricated by Disney to make a television show. He used your past and changed your future for his profit."

        "Just like you." I muttered and Minnie nodded. "You need to get away too, then."

        "We can't. Not yet." They tap the collars around their necks. "This keeps us here." We stop running, them coming to a dead halt. I move a couple steps forward, trying to tug them too. They wouldn't budge. "We can't go any further. Run, run to your friends. They are waiting just down the street."

        "I'll come back for you."

        "We know." They then held hands and started waving at me, my feet pulling me away. 

A Couple Minutes Later

        My body almost gave out when I saw Peter leaning against a car, talking to Hook, both of them pushing each other out of the way before dashing at me, almost tearing me apart for who wanted to hug me first. "Bloody Hell." Hook whispered. "They made us watch what they did to you. The show they were putting on." Hook patted my head before releasing me, Peter immediately sweeping me off of the ground and holding me in his arms. 

        "It's really you." He whispered against my shoulder. "I'm going to take you far away from this place. Away from anyone that wants to hurt you." He was tearing up in anger as he said it. 

        I shake my head as I start to cry to. "No, not yet."

        "What do you mean 'Not yet'?" He almost shouted in disbelief. 

        I shake my head again. "We have to help the children. We have to help them get free."

A Week Later

        "Breaking News! Walt Disney has been arrested for the kidnapping of over 20 people, including children. Five children were rescued from the Disney Animations and are being taken into protective custody now." The TV then clicks off, and I glance over at Peter, who was behind me on the couch. 

        "All of that public speaking did help." I whispered to him, grabbing his hand in mine. "They're free."

        "You work wonders." Peter mutters back with a small smile. "Come on, we're going to miss our flight if you just stay there."

        "Well, maybe I'd be more excited if you told me where we're going."

        "London."
