Amelia

Where am I? "Amelia." A familiar voice I haven't heard in a long time called my name. My tears were falling now. "A...A-Arthur?" I asked turning around to see the familiar blonde haired man smiling. "I never thought I'd see you here so early." He stated smiling. I smiled and ran towards him as he caught me and twirled us around. "I missed you." He whispered as I nodded and wrapped my arms around his neck as he smoothened my hair. "Can I stay here?" I asked as we pulled away so he can hold my hands. "No... You can't..." Arthur trailed off kissing me passionately. I smiled kissing him back softly. He lips are still as soft as I remember them to be.

We pulled away slowly, fully. "But I know you've grown to love, Perer Pan who is actually a descendant of mine... Amelia, he'll protect you until your time to come to Avalon comes... I... I can talk to you through him... He's... He's my reincarnation." Arthur replied as I gasped covering my mouth. "You're his shadow?" I asked as he nodded. I closed my eyes sighing. "Arthur... Thank you." I whispered as I felt a pull. "See you in the other side, darling." He stated as I felt the pull intensify and I took in a deep breath, opening my eyes.

I coughed blinking a bit. "What... happened?" I asked as Pan pulled me into a passionate kiss. I smiled kissing him back and remembering what Arthur said. I opened my eyes and pulled away. "Peter," I stated as he caressed my cheek. "Yeah?" He asked carrying me gently as I felt a sting on my upper chest and leg. "Shit!" I cursed as Peter sighed caressed my cheek. "Merlin!" Emma exclaimed worriedly as I looked up to see Merlin with golden eyes. I had wide eyes and reached for him, ignoring the pain. Peter took the hint and moved me closer to Merlin so I could reach him. His nose was bleeding. "Merlin?" I asked waving my hand over his eyes.

He didn't respond as I snapped my fingers in front of him and felt a stronger sting on my upper chest and leg. "Merlin!" I yelled out of pain, but he didn't move or flinch. I closed my eyes in pain again. "I'm so sorry, Merlin." I stated opening my eyes and slapping him across the face as hard as I can. "Shit! What the bloody hell was that for!?" He asked as I saw black.

Time Lapse: Two Hours After

"How long until she wakes?" A male voice asked. "No one knows." Another male voice replied. "But... She's the closest mother I have..." A squeaky voice trailed off as I heard sniffing. Julian? Julian, is that you? I tried to open my eyelids, but they felt so heavy. I forced them open again to have them slowly go up and blurry faces came rushing. "She's waking up!" A woman announced as I felt a firm hand gripping mine. My vision cleared and I saw Peter gripping my right hand, Merlin and Neil hovering over him, Julian gripping my left arm and our other family members surrounding me.

"How many hours was I out?" I asked as Pan chuckled and kissed the top of my hand. I smiled and tried to sit up, but Merlin and Pan gently pushed me down as I groaned touching my upper left chest and my leg. "Two hours... how are you feeling?" Merlin asked smiling. "I feel fine really, just... What the hell are these?" I asked checking my leg and upper chest. "The one your leg means you're a savior and... the one on your upper chest is... It means you destroy as well." Merlin replied as I frowned.

"What does that mean then?" I asked confused. "It's fate's way of saying you're the key to everything that happens here on out because I meddled with... with...." Merlin trailed off frowning deeply. Oh, I know that frown. He does that when he thinks he's done something gravely wrong. Apparently, I had no objection to him sacrificing me for these lot because they are family and I'd do anything for them. I let go of Peter's hand and gently patted Merlin's head. "Merlin, I was ready to die for these lot... Don't think that putting me in this much pain is your fault because it isn't. It's Isaac's fault." I replied smiling warmly at him as he looked at me and smiled. "I hate how you always say the right words to make a me feel better." He mumbled as Pan and I smiled. "Well it's my job as your little sister." I replied as he gave my forehead a kiss.

I felt small pairs of arms around my neck. I look down to see Julian in tears. "Hey, hey. What's wrong?" I asked pulling him towards me. "I-I thought... Y-You'd never wake up again!" He excalimed burying his head on my neck. I smiled feeling tears on my neck. I smiled and kissed his head as Peter gave me a chaste kiss and rubbing soothing circles on my back.

"Peter, Merlin, come with me for a bit." Neil stated as they moved away from me and I was surrounded by Emma, Snow, Regina, Belle, Charming, Hook, Robin, and Rumple. "You feeling alright, lass?" Hook asked as he and Robin helped me sit up a bit. "I'm fine, really." I replied smiling and cringing as Julian accidentally grazed on upper chest. "Amy! I'm so sorry!" He exclaimed about to pull away, but I pulled him closer. "No, it's fine. You didn't hurt me." I replied kissing the top of his cheek. "I just noticed that she's barely wearing anything and Julian is practically her only covering." Belle commented as I blushed and they all chuckled.

"Here." Regina said conjuring a blanket over us. I smiled sighing deeply. What a big family this has become. "And some clothes for you." Emma added as she conjured a dress-shirt, pants, and boots for me. "Don't forget this. An important accessory for any woman." Rumple said conjuring my satchel from earlier that I suddenly lost while absorbing the threats of Isaac. "Where did you find it!?" I asked smiling brightly at it. "Just around the corner I guess." He replied grinning. "Thank you... All of you." I stated smiling proudly at my family as the three came back.

"What's the plan now?" Charming asked as they made way for them to come near me. "Isaac just wrote something about Amelia being the trigger since he couldn't write anything against any of us." Neil replied worriedly. I frowned confused. "What do you mean?" I asked as Julian hugged me tighter. "When you sacrificed yourself earlier... You were supposed to die, but I wouldn't have it so now... You're the vessel of anything negative written by Isaac against our family here. We've got less than three days now to find him since he used too much of his energy trying to write something against you lot." Merlin explained.

"No! I won't accept the fact that Amelia is going to sacrifice her life for us! There has to be another way." Emma yelled as she had tears in her eyes. I closed my eyes kissing Julian's head. "Go back to the Lost Boys and bring them here. Please, please... Whatever you do, do not go near the forbidden parts, okay?" I whispered as Julian nodded and slipped out the blanket. I slowly wore the clothes, cautious enough not to hurt myself more than I already have. "There might be a way. Read what he wrote." Rumple stated as Neil nodded.

Amelia will suffer pain and death before the curse will activate and I will finally have what I want.

"The way he wrote it, you can determine a little how he's going to put his plan into action." Rumple stated smirking. "And how would you suggest that to happen?" Charming asked frowning. "He would go after the Lost Boys and let one of them kill someone very dear to her heart." Rumple replied as I had wide eyes. "N-No! I-It can't be!" I yelled standing up as I tried to run after Julian, but Peter caught me by the waist. "Let me go, Peter! I have to stop him!" I yelled desperate to get Julian. "Amelia, please. We can't risk you dying either!" Merlin yelled as I closed my eyes and leaned on Peter.

What happens now that they know one of the Lost Boys would kill one of them and the curse would be activated? Would the effects of it lessen or will it turn for the worst?

Merlin's time to save the world is running out and he knows it.
