I didn't have much idea on where I was going to go. Probably the docks or the police station to see Emma, now she was Sheriff she could often be found there. I sighed and pulled my jacket around my shoulders a little tighter as the cool air blew past me. As I walked to the docks, my legs having decided where I was going to go I saw Mary Margaret and David walking towards me hand in hand. I was glad that Mary Margaret hadn't been guilty of Catherine's, David's Ex-wife, murder. I liked Mary Margaret and she was a good friend. "Anna" she said happily as they reached me and I smiled back "Hey" I said

"Where you off to?" David asked just out of politeness

"The docks I think" I told them and Mary Margaret rolled her eyes and David pulled a face of confusion.

"What have I told you about going there?" she said a look of disappointment on her face. I sighed and shrugged

"You know me Mary Margaret, I can't resist" I said with a sad smile. David held up his hands and waved them around a bit stopping the conversation.

"Sorry, what's going on?" he asked.

"Anna has a thing about the docks" Mary Margaret explained.

"What's that supposed to mean?" David asked and I shrugged.

"It's hard to explain, I just always feel drawn there. Have you ever had that feeling when your waiting for something to turn up but you don't know what you waiting for and it never seems to appear?" I asked and David nodded "It's like that, but I seem to think I'll find whatever it is at the docks. Even if nothing happens" I explained and Mary Margaret shook her head and David nodded in understanding.

"Well I hope you find whatever your waiting for then" David said and I nodded.

"You guys have fun doing whatever your going to do" I said before walking off in the direction of the docks.

I reached my destination and found an empty port where I could sit cross legged on the platform and look out at the sea that stretched out to the horizon.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I found a small beach that ran along the coast of wherever I was, I could see the sea stretch out for miles and miles. I sat down in the sand and looked out remembering one of my most loved memories I shared with Killian.

It was a warm day and we had stopped sailing for a while as the crew of the Jolly Rodger had gone to gather supplies. Killian and I remained on the beach to watch the ship. Killian had stripped off his many layers of leather and we lay together on the warm sand. My head rested on his bare chest and his had an arm wrapped around my shoulders, the other tucked underneath his head. I let out a small sigh and I felt Killian move a little underneath me.

"What's wrong? he asked and I twisted my neck so I could look up at him, he was looking down his chest at me with a contented smile.

"Nothing, I was just thinking" I said and Killian sat up, making me do the same.

"What are you thinking about?" he asked and I shrugged.

"I was just trying to remember as much of this as I can. The heat, the sand, the sea... you" I said and he frowned reaching up and tucking a strand of my golden brown hair behind my ear.

"Why try and remember me when you've got me forever"he said and I smiled sadly.

"I know, Killian. But your a pirate and that means danger from others. And if either of us get hurt or separated, I want to have the best memories to remember you, and us, by" I explained and Killian nodded.

"I've thought about that and it makes me worried. But I promise you" he said and took my hand pointing to the horizon where the blue sky met the water that was just as blue. "If you look at the horizon, I will always know where you are, and I will always find you" he said and I smiled.

"I wish I could say the same for you. But I'm not that experienced with the sea as you are" I said and he chuckled.

"It doesn't matter, just know that I love you forever" he said and kissed me passionately. I placed my hands on his chest and pushed him down into the sand, deepening the kiss. We gasped for breath and Killian chuckled.

"What?" I asked looking down at him.

"Nothing. Just that you are the most beautiful thing I have ever seen" he said and I rolled my eyes kissing him again.

The memory faded and I wiped my eyes. I wondered where Killian was now. Hopefully not doing anything stupid like hunting down Rumpelstiltskin. I went to toy with the ring that I always wore, but looked down only to remember that it wasn't there anymore. I only hoped that it was with Killian.

Killian's POV

The Crocodile had gone, and so had my Adaline. I didn't even have her body to bury, it was if she wasn't here at all.

"Captain!" a crew member said and handed me a cloth to cover what was left of my arm to stop the bleeding. "What do we do now, Captain?" he asked and I pulled myself to my feet and stared at the spot where Adaline's body had been. I spotted that small glint of gold on the floor and bent down to pick up the ring Adaline loved so much. I managed to push it onto my own finger and winced when the pain in my arm sparked for a moment.

"Bring up the prisoner" I growled. The man nodded and disappeared for a moment before returning a moment later with a small, fat man. He struggled to speak and I nodded for the man to be un-gagged but still to be bound by the ropes on his wrists.

"I want my bean" he snapped.

"Let me tell you how it works on my ship – I make the demands, you follow them. Bean's now mine" I snapped back.

"You have to give me something for it" the prisoner bargained.

"Oh, I will. Your life. A chance to join my crew" I retorted and wiped some more blood off my 'stump'.

"So, instead of the promise of eternal life, I get to scrub blood off your decks? How is that right?"

"Well, what if I was to tell you I was about to set sail to a land where none of us will ever grow old? Where I can discover how to get my revenge on Rumpelstiltskin." I growled. I didn't care how long it took, I will kill a Crocodile for what he did to me.

"Guess I could live with that"

" Good. What's your name, sailor?" I asked.

"William. William Smee. Can I have my hat?" I rolled my eyes and nodded chucking him a bit of red cloth that he seemed awfully attached to.

"Well, Mr. Smee, welcome aboard." There was a magic bean in the small bag I kept at my hip and I pulled it out looking at the small clear thing for a moment. Then I threw it with all my might into the ocean just off the ship. "Hold on and get ready to set sail, mates. There's bumpy seas ahead!" I called and everyone began to hold onto things.

"What's the name of the place we're headed, Captain?" Smee asked and I looked around for something that could now cover the stump on the end of my arm. I found a small bit off metal that fit on perfectly, and it was black to match the rest of my outfit. Taking a fishing hook from the floor I fixed it into place. It wasn't as good as a hand, but it will have to do.

"Neverland" I said with a slight growl and spun the wheel of the ship.
