After rowing across the lake with Henry in the boat with me, we walk into the cave surrounded by water and i see Peter waiting for us.

"Are you ready?" I ask him as he holds my hand

"I'm ready" he answers as we all rush up the steps into a room with a massive hourglass.

"What's the hourglass for?" Henry asks

"It marks how much time is left before Neverlands magic runs out" I tell him

"It's almost empty" he points out

I feel a presence and i look at Peter and he nods

"Henry come with me" I say to him as i take him into a different part of the cave.

As Henry and i sit down, waiting, he asks me questions

"What's happening?" He asks

"Peter just needs to prep the hourglass for  the extra magic i tell him as i gulp, knowing full well that Peter is currently arguing with the dark one.

___________

I feel Rumpelstiltskin's presence fade and i know that Peter has managed to trap him in the box that can trap souls.

When the mermaid left the island, she was going to retrieve a box that could trap souls.

The dark one was planning to use it to trap Peters soul, his Fathers soul, but he doesn't understand the Neverland rules.

If you think of it, you have it.

So he was nastily surprised when Peter held the box in his hands and sucked Rumple into it instead of the other way around.

I tell Henry that it's time and we both walk over to Peter.

"Henry, it's time to save Neverland and Wendy" Peter says to him

"What do i have to do?" Henry asks

"You must give me your heart, the heart of the truest believer" Peter says

"But what will happen to me?" Henry asks

"You will become Neverlands saviour" Peter tells him

"But i'll have to stay here?" He asks

"I know it's a huge sacrifice, but hero's have to make sacrifices all the time" Peter says

"I know, i'm ready" He says

Henry rips out his heart and Peter goes to take it, when three people run up the steps and stop him form giving it to him.

"STOP!"

I turn to look at them and realise who they are

"Pleasure to see you too, Bae, Emma, evil Queen" Peter says

"Whatever Pan has told you, he's lying" Emma says to him

"The heart of the truest believer is going to save magic!" Henry says

I watch as Henry rips his hearty out and pushes it into Peters chest and Peter stands tall as the magic from Henrys heart runs through him.

I haunch over in pain and then Peter places a hand on my back and i stand up, pain free and i smile at him as i feel the magic flowing through Neverland again.

I watch as all three of the adults run to Henrys side as he falls to the floor and they shout, but it's too late we've won
