A/N: So quicky-note before we start ( I apologize in advance for my prissiness and to those this does not affect please scroll down. ) ; recently I've been told that Jane isn't a "good" character and that I need to make her "stronger" or that I this fic isn't following the show..bitch please, I literally watch the episode as I'm writing, don't tell me I'm not following the show. And as for Jane not being a "strong character", she's a teenager, it's the whole first love, obsession, do anything for that person thing. Those who know what I'm talking about understand this. And as for I don't know Jane, be quiet, just be quiet. She's MY character I can write her how I want, if you don't like it don't read it! Thank you.
Jane could feel the power pulsating through Pan as well as the island itself. It was like a high; all that power just felt right.
"What the hell did you do to him?!" Emma demanded trying to save her now dead son on the ground, knowing she was helpless. Pan descended down to the floor,
"I didn't do anything, Emma. It was Henry; he gave me his heart of his own free will." Pan said, Emma stood drawing her sword.
"I can take it back from you!" Emma lunged at Pan but he was gone in the blink of an eye.
"I don't think you have it in you," Pan said now behind her, holding Pandora's Box in his hand. "Rumplestiltskin didn't, why should you?" Pan tossed the box in his hand like it was merely a toy.
"What did you do?" Neal asked,
"Why he's right in this box, safe and sound and out of the way. Unfortunately for you he can't hurt me anymore. And neither can you." Pan smiled, Emma swung her sword grazing his arm, Pan didn't even flinch.
"Really? How did that feel?"
"Like a tickle." Pan smiled, as power surged through him again. He grabbed Jane and they flew off toward the island.
Pan landed on the beach of the main land. "How do you feel?" Jane asked, feeling her feet touch solid ground.
"Exhilarating!" Pan shouted as more power surged, his body absorbing more of Henry's heart. "Raw power, it's the best feeling in the world!" Pan turned toward Jane taking her face in his hands, "Everything is falling into place, soon everything will be perfect." He smiled, Jane looked at him confused, she didn't know what he was talking about. This was to save Neverland, but it seemed like nothing had changed. But before Jane could ask him, his lips were on hers.
Almost 100 years together, he'd never even muttered a word of affection let alone a kiss. The closest thing to that was the acorn he gave her, but she knew that was to gain her trust. Pan didn't do anything without an ulterior motive. So what was this? He had her trust, loyalty, love. Was he high off the power?
She kissed him back, but before it could get any further he pulled away; disappearing into the night.
Jane wondered back to the camp, it was oddly quiet. She walked in to see the lost boys tied up and Henry still unconscious. She heard Emma speak, "Listen, we aren't going to hurt you. I know you're loyal to Pan and I get that, but you're making a terrible mistake. For a long time, I thought I was never going to find my family. I was an orphan, a lost girl, like you. But I was reminded today that I am not alone; that I have a lot of people that love me. If that can happen to me, it can happen to you."
"Pan is the only family we need." Felix said, staying his loyalty.
"Shut up Felix!" Jane said walking out into the open, "Go on," She said to Emma.
"Family doesn't do what he did. He lied to you, to make you do terrible things. He lied to Henry and made him give up his own heart." Emma explained,
"To save the island." One of the lost boys said,
"No, to save himself!" Emma said, Felix only smiled, not playing her game.
"Don't listen to her, Pan cared about all of us." He persuaded, Jane stopped him, "He doesn't." She said coldly, everyone looked at her, "But I thought-" Neal began,
"Yeah, well so did I. Pan only cared about himself, we all know it."
"How do you?" Emma asked,
"He kissed me." Everyone looked confused, "I've known Pan for a long time," Jae explained, "He only does things if they are too his advantage. Let's just say, I'm done with his crap." Jane said dryly, she looked at Emma. "Now what are you going to do about it?"
"We can take you home with us, to our land. You don't have to fear Pan anymore, until he absorbs the power of Henry's heart he can be stopped. You just have to tell us where he is." Emma said, Felix tried to stand, but Hook shoved him down.
"Leave now, while Pan still allows you to breathe. That's the only help you'll get." Felix threatened.
"His thinking tree." One of the lost boys said, "It's where he goes when he wants to be alone."
"Can you tell us where it is?" Emma asked,
"Yes," Jane cut in, walking over to Emma. "But you have to promise you'll take them with you when you leave."
"What about you?" Emma asked, Jane shrugged, "They deserve it more than me." Emma turned back to the lost boys.
"I promise, we are going home." Emma looked back at Jane, "All of us."
"It's right beyond this ridge," Jane explained as she led Regina, Emma and Mary Margret deep into the dark forest to Pan's thinking tree. Regina stopped when she saw Pandora's Box gently placed on a rock next to a large tree. Mary Margret went for the box when Regina stopped her, "Careful, Pan wouldn't have left it lying around for no reason."
"That is David's only way home, without Gold we're stuck here-" Just then thick vines wrapped around Mary Margret pulling her tight against the tree. The vines grabbed Emma and Regina as well leaving Jane untouched.
"You still at it?" Pan walked out from behind the tree, picking up Emma's sword. "Don't you know? Peter Pan never fails." He smiled walking over to Jane kissing her on the cheek as she handed him the box, "Thank you, sweetheart. Isn't she just first class? Almost as clever as me, fooling you into coming out here, quite brilliant actually." Pan smiled, "But then again you're mothers, quite tenacious about your offspring. But if you want to see Henry, I'll tell you there's only one place you'll be reunited; in death."
"You lied to us!" Emma growled at Jane,
"I didn't lie to anyone, savior. I led you to Pan's hideout, hell I led you straight to what you wanted." Jane smiled, Regina and Emma struggled against the vines, but they only wrapped tighter.
"Having trouble moving?" Pan teased, "Not surprising seeing where you are? You see what's hastening your demise is your regret." He explained.
"What are you talking about?" Emma demanded,
"This tree is the sight of a very important event for me; I abandoned my boy here." He explained.
"You have a son?" Regina said,
"I'm a lot older than I look." Pan said, glaring at Regina.
"Believe me, I was shocked too," Jane said, twirling the box in her hands.
"If you have a son, then you must regret losing him too." Emma said, thinking she'd figured it out.
"But I don't! Quite the opposite actually," He walked over plucking the box from Jane's hands. "See I have him all boxed up, so I don't lose him again." He explained.
"Rumplestiltskin is your son?" Regina stated,
"How is that possible? Your-" Mary Margret started,
"Younger than him?" Pan finished, "Not really, just like you and your daughter."
"You're a fraud," Regina said, "Your magic is weakened, you can't even hurt us, let alone Rumplestiltskin?"
"You're right, but that's why I'm here. This tree will protect him until my power is restored and then, well, then I get to have some real fun." Pan said, holding up the sword to Regina. "And then I won't have to worry about my child ever again; something we will all soon have in common." Emma struggled against the vines, but they only got tighter.
"There has to be another way." She stated,
"And you're not going to get to me; see this tree attacks the regret inside anyone who comes here and you, you've got plenty." Pan said pointing at Emma.
"My only regret is not taking a better shot at you when I had a chance." Emma threatened.
"Oh that's not all is it, savior? Remember I have your son's heart inside me, I can feel just how much you've let him down time and time again." Pan said,
"Leave her alone!" Mary Margret shouted,
"Oh maybe he should," Jane said walking in front of her, "She never could be a good mother, just look at the example you set. Abandoning her for 28 years!"
"Are you finished?" Regina cut in,
"Last words from the Queen, perhaps a death bed confession seeing as you have the most to regret of all." Pan said, taking a step back to enjoy this.
"There's one problem with that." Regina began, "I did cast a curse that destroyed an entire population; I have murdered; I've done some terrible things and I should be over flowing with regret but I'm not." Regina smiled as the vines weakened allowing them to go free. "Because it got me my son." Just then Pan, fell to the ground. Jane stood behind him with Henry's heart in her hand. She stepped over him, handing the heart to Regina. Jane looked down, snatching Pandora's Box from the floor handing it to Regina as Pan struggled for strength.
Regina, Emma and Mary Margret went back to Hook's ship, while Jane stayed behind, enjoying the sight of Pan fallen. Jane kneeled down in front of him, "Hurts doesn't it? Having your heart ripped from your chest. Now you can somewhat feel what I've gone through having to be stuck with you for the past 100 years." Peter glared at her, his magic weak. "You know Pan, you got cocky. Giving me an acorn to gain my trust and love was one thing; but a kiss. Oh no, that set off all the red flags; because you see, you're incapable of feeling anything for anyone but yourself. Which is why you don't have any real friends.
"You had everything anyone could ever need and want. Youth, a home, the loyalty of those around you, love. And yet you wanted more, you craved more and in doing so, you lost everything else with the drop of a hat. And that's why you'll always be alone." Jane smiled, grabbing Pan's chin, kissing him quickly before standing and headed back to Hook's ship where she could finally go home.
Jane ran onto the ship to see the lost boys sitting around talking about what their lives will be like in Storybrooke. Looking over she saw Henry, alive and well.
"Lookin' good for a dead man." She smiled,
"My mom told me what you did to Pan. I know what he meant to you." Henry said, apologetic in his voice.
"Believe me, it was way overdue." Jane smiled, ruffling Henry's hair as he left below deck to rest.
As Henry lay resting in Hook's quarters, Peter stepped out of the shadows, pulling out his knife. "I'm sorry it had to come to this, Henry."
"W-What are you doing?"
"I wanted your heart Henry, but your mother took it away from me. She took everything from me, and now I want it back." Pan reached to take Henry's heart but Regina's spell prevented him, the magic burning him as he tried. "Oh how clever," Pan said, he reached grabbing Henry's shadow, ripping it from his body.
"What are you doing?!" Henry groaned as his shadow was slowly and painfully pulled from him.
"Blood magic works both ways, father." Rumple said, activating Pandora's Box trapping Pan. Not before Pan switched bodies with Henry, trapping Henry inside the box.
On deck, Regina trapped the shadow in the sail of Hook's ship, allowing it to travel out of Neverland. Jane looked over at Felix, offering him a plate of food, he turned away.
"You're a trader." Felix said to her, Jane only laughed, "I did what I had to do to survive, Felix. I didn't sell out."
"I stayed loyal to Pan!" Felix argued.
"I want to go home!" Jane countered. "Don't you want to go home Felix? Neverland is for dreams, we deserve a real home, a real bed. Pan couldn't give us that, we only thought he could."
"Love, this is what this is about? He'll never love you so you ripped out his heart?" Felix said,
"He ripped out mine." Jane said, wanting to slap Felix across the face, "So now we're even." Jane walked away, not wanting to stoop down to Felix's level. He wasn't going to listen, Felix would be loyal to Pan till the day he died. But then again, so would she.
A/N: Jane took a 180! Freaking ripping out hearts and crap! Well not really, but they say hell hath no fury then a woman scorned. So tell me your comments/likes/gripes and other words!
