Hello, everybody! Well, it's that time of year again! October! Which means it's the month of Halloween! And a perfect time for yet another Halloween tale from me! This time, the story is going to feature the Darling children, Wendy, John, and Michael, as they join Jake and the crew with Peter Pan on a night of trick or treating. What may happen, we shall see. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: A scary invite
Fall had arrived in London, as it was a cool October night. October 30th to be exact. The day before Halloween. And in the little house on the corner over there, three children were beyond excited for the next night, as a young teenager, Wendy Darling, was reading another story to her younger brothers, John and Michael.
"Captain Hook thought he was very clever if he swiped all the treats from Jake and his pirates. But that silly captain fell for another trick..." Wendy read from her storybook. "... And flew through the air with Mr. Smee. Izzy used her pixie dust to rescue their treats, and it was definitely a scaring and fun Halloween!"
John and Michael cheered for the Never Land pirates triumph. Ever since meeting Jake and his crew, Wendy had been telling stories about them, just like she did with Peter Pan. "That codfish thought he could get away with his trickery." John said.
"But once again, Jake and the Never Land Pirates save the day!" Michael giggled.
Wendy smiled as she closed the book, "Indeed they did, Michael." She then looked up at the clock. It was almost midnight, "Well, boys. It's quite late. We had better get to bed."
The boys frowned a little, "Aw, but I'm much to excited to sleep!" Michael exclaimed.
John nodded in agreement, "So am I. Tomorrow is Halloween. And I most definitely cannot wait to go trick or treating."
"Yeah, we're gonna dress up like pirates!"
"And get lots of treats!"
"Lots and lots of treats!"
Wendy chuckled at the excitement her brothers were expressing. She too was excited for Halloween. Not as excited as her brothers though, as she mostly preferred other holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. Halloween was a bit too scary for her, but that didn't stop her from enjoying the thought of dressing up, for she loved to do that. "Well, you'll have to sleep in order to get ready. You don't want to be tired on Halloween, now would you?"
The boys nodded, for their older sister was right. But then Michael had a question, "Wendy... do you think we could trick or treat somewhere different this time?"
"Whatever do you mean?" Wendy asked.
"I believe we should change it up this year." John replied, "You know, maybe trick or treat in a different location."
"But where else could we do it? It's not like we can leave that same street now."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the window, "Now, who could that be?" Wendy wondered as she walked towards the window, already having an idea on who it was knocking at this night.
She carefully opened the window, and what she didn't expect to see next was a scary mask staring right in her face. "Oh my goodness!" She exclaimed, falling over in shock.
The figure with the mask began to laugh, as did John and Michael. The figure then revealed himself to be...
"Peter Pan!"
The redheaded boy who could fly chuckled, "Hiya, boys. How do you like my mask? Did I scare you?"
"Well... maybe just a little." John admitted.
Wendy frowned, "Well, you certainly scared me. I almost had a heart attack for a moment." Her hand was placed over her chest to prove that.
Peter blushed as he scratched the back of his head, "Sorry, Wendy. I didn't mean to scare you that badly." He floated towards his friend and helped her up, "I'm just excited for tomorrow night. Halloween in Never Land is going to be a blast. I have a map of all the places to be trick or treasuring."
As Peter explained, the boys got more and more excited, as they now knew where they wanted to go trick or treating, "But anyways, I came to listen to your stories again, and that gave me the perfect idea. Wendy, John, Michael... how would you like to join me and my crew in Never Land tomorrow night for Halloween?"
He didn't have to ask that twice, as John and Michael began to leap for joy, "That would be a fun adventure!" John exclaimed.
"Really, really fun!" Michael agreed, "Can we go, Wendy?"
"Please?" Both boys pleaded to their sister.
Wendy, on the other hand, was rather a bit skeptical about this. Not because she didn't trust Peter or anything, nor didn't want to even go to Never Land, but to go on what is suppose to be a scary night? "Oh, I'm not sure about this. Will it be safe, Peter?"
"Of course it'll be safe." Peter confirmed, "Besides, everything that's scary there either isn't real, or just scary for the sake of being scary. But you have nothing to worry about, m'lady. I'm sure your brothers will have fun, and I know that you will too... trust me."
And trust him she did, "Well... alright. I guess it would be nice to see what Halloween in Never Land is like." Wendy finally said after some thought.
The boys began to cheer for joy, as Peter smiled, "Great! I'll be here tomorrow to pick you guys up. And then, the fun and scares will really begin..."
Well, it looks like Wendy and her brothers are in for an interesting night for Halloween. Next chapter, we'll see Jake and his crew, and that's when we'll hear of the Vampirates. Until then, I shall see you guys later. And as always, don't forget to review, please. Thank you.
