A Split Heart
I wake up with no sound except a crackling fire surrounding me. I look up to a midnight dark sky where the moon shone through clouds. I try to sit up, but get a headache and everything is dizzy so I lay back down.
"You're awake." I hear a girl say and that makes me sit up and look. Her black ebony hair went to her waist and had lapis lazuli eyes. The dizziness come back and I lay back down.
"Where am I?" I ask looking around the wooded surroundings. She says nothing to me, but I hear her start chanting. I sit up once more finally standing up. I lean against a tree for balance as dizziness starts to take over me. I put my hand on the tree and it stings my hand. I look at it and see a fresh cut in the flesh of my hand.
"What did you do?"I ask and walk towards the witch. She says nothing to me, but she just continues to chant. She stops chanting and there's an eerie silence throughout the forest.
"What did you do?" I ask again and she stands up and looks into the dark shadowed forest in front of us. She turns to me.
"You'll see." Is all she says. Then, I hear the wind getting louder and coming at me harder in the shadowed clearing in front of us. I get closer to the clearing, my hair brushing hard against my face.
"You might want to step back." She says and I look back at her in confusion. I hear a grunt and see someone laying on their stomach on the floor of the forest. He had a blonde mop of hair and were wearing different shades of brown for clothing. He looks up to me and the girl. He has blue eyes and a scar over one eye and I realize who it is and step back.
"The underworld is not fun." Felix says and stands up, brushing the light patches of dirt off his clothes and they float back to where they came from. I didn't scream, I didn't say anything, I didn't move. I was frozen like a sculpture, gawking at the boy who had just been from Hell and back. Literally.
"Well I see you have the girl Alana." He says to the girl looking from her to me. Fear ran through me and I ran. I ran to a clearing, but then get hit by something that flings me back to the ground. I sit up and crawl to the place in between the trees where I tried to run. I place my finger on it and it ripples, then goes back to it normal state.
"Figured you would try to run." the girl Alana says. I stand back up and face the two.
"How is it possible to bring someone back who isn't a dark one?" I ask. She points to the clearing where the lost boy came out of.
"The Storybrooke lake isn't the only portal to the Underworld. There's a spell to open this one. It involves a certain type of blood as well, but it works." Alana says.
"Why my blood though? What so special about mine?"
"Blood of one who feels guilty." Felix says and now I understood why. My guilt about their death. How I saw it a year before it happened and could never tell them.
"So, Where's Pan?" I ask.
"We need more blood if we're gonna resurrect him as well." She says as she brushes blood out from under her nose.
"But isn't this hurting you?" I ask looking at her.
"I will be fine in the morning." She says. I look around the forest. They have me trapped and my only option is to give them my blood. I make my decision and I hold my arm out.
"You're willingly giving us your blood?" Felix asks perplexed at my response.
"I would do anything to bring him back. Even if it kills me, so if it's my blood you want, take it." I say.
Alana takes the blade out of her belt and walks over to me. She holds my arm steady as she drags the blade across my flesh. Red liquid is now clear and she runs back to the fire and grabs the bowl with the ingredients all but the final one. I place my hand over the bowl and watch the crimson liquid coming out of my body and into the bowl. She runs back over to the blazing fire and starts to chant.I hear the sound of fabric ripping from behind me, then a hand gave me the dark fabric.
"Thank you." I say and tie it to my hand and watch have the already dark fabric was getting darker.
I hear a sound like two bodies collapsing and that's exactly what I see. I run over to Alana and see her unconscious with blood dripping from her nose. I look over to Pan and see him look as young as ever. He looked up from off the ground and stared at me in confusion.
"Madeline?" He asks and gets up unbalanced.
"Madeline is my french name. Everybody calls me Alex, or Thom." I say and walk over to him.
"How can you look like her, she's dead." He says.
"She also has prophecies, just like she did. She got them from Merlin, didn't she? She's like her, but I don't think she is her." Felix asks and stand next to Pan.
"I remember having some of my dreams come true, but I thought that's cause I was Clairvoyant. Not Merlin giving me prophesies, but that would make a little more sense now that you two are here." I say.
"It's morning back home. You should go back." Pan says and walks away from me.
"But it's still nighttime. It looks like it's early morning here." I say confused.
"You're in Neverland." Felix whispers then joins Pan. Then I remembered how when Malcolm, Pan, was younger he would visit the island through dreams.
"What about the girl?" I ask.
"She'll be fine. She'll wake up tomorrow and remember none of this." Felix says
"So I need to wake up, how?" I ask. Then I see a puff of green smoke and awake in my bed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Come on Alex think! You're a fanfiction writer, a short story like this should be nothing! I yell at myself in my head, having no ideas to write. The bell rings and the Literacy door opens. I look up expecting to find my literacy, but instead saw two boys dresses like teachers. Pan and Feix. I face palmed and sigh trying not to laugh. I look up and see him grab the light green marker and write 'Mr.Pan" on the board and a small laugh gets out. I see him look at me and I stop any laughter from escaping my throat and try to focus on our 'sub'.
"Hello. I'm Mr.Pan and this is my assistant Felix." He says and points to Felix. He gives a small wave to the class of confused students while I'm trying not to laugh.
"I heard you've been working on narratives or memoirs. Work on that. Alex?" He says and I look up at him.
"Yes?" I ask with innocence in my voice.
"I need to talk you in the hallway." He says and starts to walk out of the classroom. I nod my head and shake as I get out of the chair.
"I don't know what I did wrong sir." I say as I get into the hallway. As he shuts the door, I burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" He asks.
"Mr.Pan? Really? Is that the best you can do?" I say trying to control my laughter.
"That doesn't matter. I need your help." He says.
"Let me guess...the heart of the Truest Believer? I might have an idea of getting it." I ask and he nods his head 'yes.' "I might have an idea of getting it." He opens the door and tells Felix get out here. When he gets in the hallway, I look to see if no one was coming.
"We ready to go?" He asks Pan and we both shake our heads yes.
"So how are we gonna get to Storybrooke?" I ask and Pan smirks his famous smirk and green smoke surround his and Felix's body and they change back into the clothes I saw them in last night. He raises his hand up and the dark green covers all of us and we appear on a street. I hear the sound of a clock bell ringing and I see the clock from Storybrooke Main St. I was in Storybrooke.
"What's your plan?" Felix asks.
"To break his heart of course."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How exactly do you break his heart?" Pan asks as we walk to Regina's house.
"Snow White and Prince Charming used the curse to bring them back here, but Snow had crush the person's heart that she loved the most."
"He's dead?" Felix asked.
"No, that's the thing. Regina split Snow's heart and gave half of it to Snow and put the other in Charming's place so he could live." I say and walk to the white front door with them right behind me. I go up to knock, but put my hand down and turn to them.
"If Henry sees you, he'll freak and tell his family and they already have enough to deal with with every dark one alive cause of Hook." I say.
"Hook's a dark one?" Pan asks.
"Yep, it's hard to explain and I'll tell you later, but let's get Henry's heart first." I say and they go hide somewhere. I turn back around and knock on the door. The door opens and I see Henry.
"Your Henry, right?" I ask even though I already know it is.
"Yes, why?"
"Good, cause I need your help."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He invites me in and he tells me to go sit down in the kitchen. The place was so big, it was amazing. I sit down at the table and he sits down right next to me.
"You know how Pan tried to take your heart because you were the heart of the truest believer?" I ask and he nods his head looking at me confused. I sigh and finally let the truth out.
"Pan and Felix are back and I'm helping them." Right as I said that, he stood up and backed away from me. I stand up with him.
" He's alive? How did you bring him back." He asks with terror in his eyes.
"I didn't bring him back. There was a witch, her name is Alana. She used my blood to bring them back." I say calmly.
"Why would they need your blood?" I sigh.
"Well, like Arthur, Merlin gave me prophecies. It's hard to explain cause well I don't exactly understand either, but I have an idea. A way that you can live and Pan can stay young forever."
"How?" He asked interested.
"So what Snow and Charming did when they used the curse to bring them here."
"Snow split her heart." he says finishing my sentence. "Do you think it would work?" He asked moving closer to me.
"I believe it will. Dude, You're Mom is the product of true love, your grandfather was a Dark One, You're the heart of the truest Believer and The Author. I have my hopes that it will work" I say and smile.
"Then I agree to it." He says and I smile. I walk closer to him and take off my leather jacket. I put it on the counter and face him again.
"This is my first time doing this so... yeah." I say and stick my hand in his chest. He groans in pain as I take his heart out. It looked like nothing we studied in health class. It was beating in my hand and glowed a dark red, almost maroon.
"You might wanna sit down." I suggest and he does. I let a light laugh.
"Allons-y" I mutter and grab the heart and start to pull it. I hear him groaning and look over at him with his head on the wood table. I keep yanking it until it was finally in two halves. He sits up and I give him one half of his heart.
"That actually worked..." I say
"You didn't think it would?" He asks
"No, yes, I mean...thank you." I say to him.
" Just bring it back if it doesn't work." he says and I nod in agreement. I run out of the white mansion and jump off of the marble colored steps.
"Pan? Felix?" I yell.
"You called." I hear a voice behind me say and I scream and almost punch Pan, but he caught my fist.
"Sorry." I say sheepishly and he lets go of me. I look at the half beating heart in my hand. Then Felix comes out behind the huge house.
"Here you go?" I asks and push the heart in and a magic force pushes me into the red brick walkway. I look up and see Pan off the ground.I smiled at him in the air and he smiles back. It worked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As we walk back down Main Street, I had an idea.
"I got it!" I shout and they look at me confused.
"My short story or memoir.I had no ideas, but I have an idea now'. This. Everybody will think this is fiction, but it's actually a memoir!" I say.
"Well, now you should start writing." he says, but before he uses his magic I stop him.
"Wait you never told me who Madeline was." I say and he looks down at the ground.
"You don't have to tell me, b-"
"No you should know." He says and sighs. "Madeline was my wife, before this happened. She died giving birth to our son Rumple. You look... you are her." He says.
"How? That's, th-"
"You were somehow reborn into this world. You have everything that she has. Her looks, her gifts..." Felix says and now I understood. Now I knew why I had more guilt over someone who was supposedly a fictional character.
Pan then takes out a yellow colored scroll and gives it to me. I unravel it and gasp at what I saw. It was a drawing of Pan when he was younger than he is now and me when I was about twelve.
"We started dating when we were twelve. We got that drawing from someone on our first date." Pan says and I hand it back to him. "So let's get you home."
"But, Wa-" but it was to late as I already saw green.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most of you think, yeah awesome story or even what the heck, that was crap, but it's true. I met two lost boys and went on well I shouldn't say adventure, but it was more of a mission. How come you don't remember? Well, duh, magic. It was fun and I hope that maybe this will happen again, but for now I have to do well in school, sing and dance in RM and try not to fail on trumpet in Jazz Band. I haven't seen them since that date, but maybe just maybe, I will see them soon. Because well, I believe in Peter Pan.
A/N: Hey, I just edited this and I might do a sequel. I also got a 95% on this so I think that's good. Thanks for reading!
