"HENRY RUN!" I screamed shooting arrows at the mermaids. I was shooing, and shooting and only 3 arrows left. I looked back to see where Henry is, he was going on the tree-bridge, but then when I looked back at the mermaids one shoot the Death on Henry. My eyes widden and I started to run towards Henry. I don't remember when was the last time that I ran so fast. I jumped in front of Henry, and I felt how the Death was sticking on my body. I gasped and fell on my knees.
"Clary!" I heard Henry. I didn't want to look at the plant, so I turned to Henry.
"Henry, run! Go back to the camp! NOW!" I screamed and his eyes were watery.
"Don't stop, don't look back just run to Pan." I said and he made a step towards me.
"Go!" I said stern and loud. I turned back to the mermaids, that were looking at me. I took one of the 3 arrows and raised it up to the mermaid that shot me. I let it go, and the arrow hitted her in the head. All the mermaids screamed when their friend fell dead in the water. Then I fell on the cold ground. I bit my lip hard and tasted the blood in my mouth. I closed my eyes and then opened them again. I looked at the plant, and my whole stomach that was bare was now all covered in blood. I looked up and saw someone walking towards me.
What happened before.
I was sleeping peacefully on the tree in our camp when someone decided to pull me down. I hitted the hard ground and gasped from the pain.
"Jesus.." I mumbled rolling on the floor, my eyes still shut. I sat up and opened my eyes to see Pan standing in fron't of me. My lungs tightened when I saw him. The thing that happened last night was not suposed to happen. He kissed my temple, and it made just the thing that was awkwards between us, more awkward.
Let's see who is going to wilt first. I shook my head on that memory.
"Get up, it's training time." Pan said calmly. He was behaving like nothing happened yesterday, of course he was, that's Pan. I sighed and got up to see that the boys were up.First time that they are on their feets before me. I streched and Pan looked at Henry.
"After lunch, take Henry for a walk around Neverland. But be carefull that you don't see his familly, Got it?" He said and I nodded. Henry was standing next to Felix and Chase. He was laughing at something but I saw that he was not truly happy. I walked to them with a smile and Henry smiled warmly at me.
"Clary, you are finally awake!" Felix said and gave me a grin.
"Yeah, I'm. So, training?" I asked and they nodded. Pan took Henry in the wodden house. We decided to do something new. Like something that will exhaust everyone.
"Boys take your wepons we are going on a run." I said and took a sword putting it in my belt, two daggersin my boots, and a bow and arrows on my back.
"Why take wepos when we are going to run?" I heard some boy saying. I looked at him and smiled.
"Because you need to learn how to run with some weight on you. Now, follow me!" I started to run and the boys followed me. At first we were not runing so fast, I was going easy on them. Then I started tu run faster, and I decided to go in the thicker part of the jungle. There was a fallen tree and I jumped over it and kept runing, but when I stoped and turned aroun, half of them were struggling and joking around.
"HEY! No messing around! Run!" I said and started tu run so fast that they needed about 10 minutes to catch up to me. I'm lying I needed to slow down. We were runing for half and hour. Then crunches, sit ups, planks, everything that came in my mind. We all were dead. Sweat was dripping from us. I looked at the sky and saw that the sun was on it's higest place.
"Boy's get showers fast and then go eat." I said and they nodded and started to go towards the beach. I decided to go to my little lake. I striped and jumped in the cold lake. It was refreshing after all that training. I tryed to brush my hair with my fingers but it was not so easy. Then a brush showed in my hand, but in a red smoke. I turned around to se Rumple. I was scared, but I decided to play it cool.
"Thank's?" I said and started to brush my hair. Lot's of hair was in the brush so it was awfull to look at it. I took off the hair and started to get out. Rumple turned around to give me some privacy. But my clothes were sweaty.
"Shit.." I mumbled and in front of me showed some clothes. I looked at Rumple and smiled.
"Thank you." I said and took the clothes. He gave some black panties and black thick leggins and a green top with green bra. I put it on and put my brown belt with daggers on my waist and my brown boots.
"So, how can I help you?" I asked taking my clothes and going towards the water to wash my clothes.
"Well I wanted to meet you and try to.. Get something out of your mouth." He said and I chuckled washing the clothes.
"You mean about Henry or about Pan?" I asked and glanced at Rumple to see him flinch when I mentionted Pan. His shoulders get a little bit behind, and his head a little bit up.
"Both." He said and I sighed turning around to him with a little fake smile.
"Listen, thanks for the clothes, but you won't get anything from me." I said and Rumple smirked, and that smirk made me gulp. I didn't like it, at all. He was scary without that smirk, and with that smirk it was like.. Like I was looking at a beast. Stupid comparison .
"What do you realy want.?" I asked trying not to sound scared, but I failed. The Dark One, Rumple, whatever, made a circle with his hand and suddenly we were covered in some red smoke. Teleporting. But this was different than Pan's. This was like you are in coma you can't do a thing. I was scared. So scared. I was not scared of the teleporting thing, I was scared of him. After all I have heard about him, it was not so nice to benear him. He killed a lo of people, he is not a good person at al.Then my feet touched a ground and I gasped. I looked up to see Rumple still in front of me. I looked around and I gulped. We were by the old place where the camp was. The pictures of the camp rushed to my head. I shook my head to keep them away.
"You know, you are really interesting." Rumple said and started to walk around me. I was looking at him, making sure that he doesn't do something unspected.
"I want to know, everything about you and my brother." Rumple said and I narrowed my eyes.
"Brother?" I asked confused and Rumple smiled a little bit.
"He never told you he had a brother." He said and I looked at the ground. Pan has a brother, and that brother is the Dark One. How nice. I can not saythat I'm suprised that Pan didn't tell me, but I was angry. I felt how Rumple was puting his finger under my chin and then he made me look at him.
"Tell me about you two." He said and I pushed his hand away from me.
" There is nothing to tell." I said and he smirked evily. Thenhe grabed my neck and put a hand on my forhead.
"Well if you are not going to say, I will see it." He said and I screamed when I felt the pain in my head. Then in front of my eyes, everything started to spin. I closed my eyes and then opened them with pain to see all memories with Pan, they were rushing in front of my eyes. I heard his laugh, saw his smile and those happy green eyes. God, I miss that. After all the memories, the nightmare came. The day he send me back. I felt how my eyes got watery then I closed them. When I opened them again I saw Rumple standing in shock in front of me. I felt on my knees, and calmed my self down. It was nice to see those memories, but those memories were hurting like hell.
"You were in love with him."Rumple said suprised and the he kneeled in front of me.
"How could you love someone who was testing you and hurting you?" He asked and I looked him in the eyes.
"I don't know, I just did." I said and looked at my hands again.
"But he killed you. Why are you on his side?" He asked and I got up and Ruple did the same.
"Because I'm a lost girl." I said and started to walk back towards the camp.
"Why do I think that's not the real reason?" He said and I closed my eyes again, touching that scar on my neck. I didn't answer at that.
"Why don't you kill him. Why don't you play him, like he did play you? I can help you!" I stoped and clanched my fists. I really did want to hurt Pan, but to kill him will be nothing. I want to hurt him, just how he hurted me, and Rumple doesn't need to know about that. I turned to him to see him standing with his hands behind his back and a little smirk playing on his lips.
"I would never kill Pan. Or go agains him. He did maybe kill me, but I would never forget the things he did for me. Pan is a villain but he is still a boy. He is my leader, he is my friend and enemy. And I would never change that. If you want to kill Pan, you have to get trough me first." I said and Rumples smirk disappeard. He was looking at me in curiosity, I was feeling uncomfortable under his look. So i looked away. He started to walk around me.
"Interesting." Rumple said and smiled big again. I swalowed because I didn't know what was he going to do now.
"He is your weakness." He said and I swalowed. I didn't know if he was right, or maybe I didn't want him to be right.
"Does my brother have any weakness?" he asked and a little smile apeard on my lips.
"You brother? I'm afraid not. What do you think why is he the bigest villain of you all. He is not vulnerable." I said and that was hurting me from inside.
"Or he is just hidding it." He said and I looked at him.
"Why do you care?" I asked and Rumple walked slowly towards me.
"Because, everyone has a weakness, even Pan." He said touching my cheek.
"And I will find it." He said and I shivered from his cold harsh voice, and then the was gone. I sighed and went with my hand trought my still wet hair. This is all messed up. I took a deep breath and walked back to the camp. The boys already ate, I was late. I saw Pan with Henry and when they saw me Pan wawed to me. I went to them and messed Henry's hair.
"New clothes?" Pan asked looking at my face and then back on my body.
"I will talk later with you about that. And about your brother." I said in his ear and he tensed up. I went to the woden house and left my sword there. I came back to Henry who was so exicted.
"Ready?" I asked and he started to runin the jungle.
"Come on you old lady!" He said and I raised my eyebrow but I couldn't help but smile. I looked at Pan who gave me a simple nod and I run after Henry. We were walking trought the jungle and talking.
"Do you miss your family?" He asked me when I jumped down from a tree to grab us some apples. I sighed and looked at him. I didn't thought about my familly since the day I came here. Weird, I know. But I have no reason to. My brother is with mom, somewhere. Didnt see them in 2 years and my Dad is working hard.. He always wanted the best for me. And I left him. Alone.
"Yes, sometimes." I said and gave him an apple. Then we didn't talk, we were just walking. I wanted to make Henry this day fun, and I will.
"What do you want to visit here on Neverland?" I asked and Henry's face lighned up.
"Skull rock!" He said and jumped. I bit my lip and Henry rolled his eyes.
"I can't go there, am I right?" He asked and I nodded.
"No one can's. Pan's orders."
"Mermaid lagoone?" I asked him and he smiled. I helped Henry over the tree bridge, and then a memory hited me.
*Memory*
"Come on jump!" Peter said and I swalowed.
"Don't be afraid, just jump." He said with a smile. I took a deep breath. And then jumped. I jumped on the other tree, and Pan was holding my shoulders.
"See, it was not so hard." He said leting me go and turning around. I followed him, but I lost my balence and I slipped. I scremed and then Pan cough my arm. He started pulling me over, but then he slipped a litlle bit, and I scremed again.
"Calm down Clary! I will not let you fall down!" Pan scremed and pulled me up. Our chests were touching, and he was holding my hand, and my other hand was on his shoulder.
"I will never let you fall down." He said looking in my eyes. I bit my lip, and looked down.
"Thanks." I said and he nooded. I put ma hand down but he didn't let go of my other hand.
*Memory over*
I lost balance for a second and Henry gripped my hand.
"Clary!" He screamed and I took him in my hands and jumped on the other tree. I put him down and looked at him.
"I'm so sorry, I.. I had a memory." I said and Henry nodded.
"It's okay." He said and we started to walk to the lagoone.
"Don't get near the water." I said and sat on the cold ground. Henry was playing around, running and playing with some animals. Like rabbit or birds. He was good with animals. Well his grandma is Snow White. But I had a weird feeling about this. The water, was not even so clear, and there were not so many animals. I was listening carefully. I started to look over the place. Something is wrong. I saw how the animals ran away from Henry into the jungle.
"Henry, come here." I said taking my bow and an arrow. The water started to be restless . I griped my bow harder.
"Go to the bridge." I said and he started to walk slowly and I was following him, but my front was facing the water, and then mermaids jumped from the water and in their hand were bows, and for the arrows they had Death.
*Memory*
"First of all, you need to know every deadly thing on Neverland. So you know about the dreamshade but there is one more plant you need to know about. Death." He said and I flinched at the last part. Pan's voicewas calm, but still I could here the exitment in it. Hewas talking slowly, like ateacher when he is teaching you something.The name of the plant was notsomething that I thought I would love to mess around.
"Mermaids, and Hook used to use it. It hurts like hell, the plant is seperating in 7 ways, and then it grips your skin and we can say bites you, and it is sucking your strengt. You just want to die, you just want the pain to end. But the sadest thingis, I can heall anyone who gets bitten by it.Trying to heel with magic will just make worst. You have to take out the plant by hand, and that hurts even more when it bites you." He said and srugged with his shoulders like that was not a big deal. But to me it was a big deal. So you will sufferin everyway if you just touch the plant. When you want to take it out from your body, it hurts. Well, how great. I hope no one of the boys get to this. Pan steped a little bit foward and took some brench from the ground. With the old branch he moved the big leaves from the flower, so I could see the real beauty of it. The flower was hidding behind it's big, green leaves that were sharf on the ends, and hard on touch. The flower was big, orange colour with purple in the middle, but what was interesting there were torny on the petals, and on the leaves. I guess they bite you with them.
*memory over*
I let my arrow go and cut a mermaids shoulder.
"HENRY RUN!" I screamed shooting arrows at the mermaids. I was shooing, and shooting and only 3 arrows left. I looked back to see where Henry is, he was going on the tree-bridge, but then when I looked back at the mermaids one shoot the Death on Henry. My eyes widden and I started to run towards Henry. I don't remember when was the last time that I ran so fast. I jumped in front of Henry, and I felt how the Death was sticking to my body. I gasped and fell on my knees.
"Clary!" I heard Henry. I didn't want to look at the plant, so I turned to Henry.
"Henry, run! Go back to the camp! NOW!" I screamed and his eyes were watery.
"Don't stop, don't look back just run to Pan." I said and he made a step towards me.
"Go!" I said stern and loud. I turned back to the mermaids, that were looking at me. I took one of the 3 arrows and raised it up to the mermaid that shoot me. I let it go, and the arrow hitted her in her head. All the mermaids screamed when their friend fell dead in the water. Then I fell on the cold ground. I bit my lip hard and I tasted the blood in my mouth. I closed my eyes and then opened them again. I looked at the plant, and my whole stomach that was bare was now all covered in blood. I looked up and saw someone walking towards me.
"We meet again dearie." The person said and I growled.
"You made them do this." I said and he smirked. Mermaids would never attack us, because of Pan. I mean they can kill if someone comes near the watter but they can't shoot at us. And they didn't have Death. And Pan only know's where you can find Death.
"Yes I did. I hope that you wont die. I still need you." He said and I took my bow and one arrow and shoot at him, but he cought it. I gasped and he grined at me.
"Good bye." He said and wanished. I was left with one arrow. The Death was sucking my life out. It was so painfull. I closed my eyes and tryed to breath stedy, but I couldn't. Then one question came to my mind..
Is this my end?
