They’d all agreed that they needed a solid night of rest. Of course, it had been night ever since they’d gotten here, so this was just something they’d agreed on when, one by one, they’d admitted they were exhausted. And so they’d made camp and everyone had wrapped themselves in their blankets and gone to sleep.

Except Emma, of course.

Just like the last time she’d tried to sleep, she could hear the cries of the Lost Boys. She hated why she could hear them. It was just proof that the damage was done, that finding her parents didn’t matter since they’d left her in the first place. She never wanted Henry to be able to hear these sounds.

Even though she was physically wiped, she was an experienced enough insomniac to know that sleep wasn’t going to happen. She knew that David and Mary Margaret would protest, talk about how she needed her rest to be ready to go up against Pan and whatnot, but it wasn’t like she hadn’t been trying to sleep. She knew she wouldn’t, and it wasn’t worth trying, at least not for a few hours.

She was about to roll out of her makeshift bed and so she could sit by the fire when she heard someone else moving about. She flipped onto her side to find Hook sitting up, pulling on his leather coat, and walking away from the camp.

Where the hell was he going?
