I don't own Peter Pan and the Pirates characters.
Michael viewed Peter flying near Wendy and John. A smile appeared on his face. He flew by many berry shrubs. Michael approached the trio. He continued to smile. ''What are we going to do? Are we going to play hide and seek?'' he asked.
Peter smiled at Michael. ''Let's play pranks on Captain Hook instead.'' Peter viewed Michael tilting his head to one side. His eyes settled on the latter's frown after it replaced a smile. They widened as the corners of his mouth went up. Peter gasped.
''I'll take Captain Hook's long johns and replace the Jolly Roger flag,'' Peter said. He turned to Wendy and John. He saw worry in their eyes. ''You'll smile after you see Captain Hook's wide eyes. He will tremble and scowl the minute he sees his underwear instead of the Jolly Roger flag.'' Peter saw Wendy's frown.
''If Captain Hook harms you, Peter…'' Tears began to form in Wendy's eyes. Wendy viewed Peter's sudden concerned expression.
Another smile formed on Peter's face. ''I'll be fine, Wendy. I always flee from Captain Hook ,'' he said. Peter focused on Wendy. ''You can distract Captain Hook before I take his long johns. Captain Hook isn't going to capture you, Wendy. He won't force you to walk the plank or dangle you above the hungry crocodile.''
Wendy's eyes widened at a snail's pace.
''You will be fine,'' Peter informed Wendy. He flew far from the Darling siblings.
Wendy turned to Michael and John. ''I am going to follow Peter. I might be able to convince him to return here.'' Wendy saw Michael's sudden worried expression.
''I'll go with you. I can protect you,'' Michael said.
Wendy began to smile at Michael. ''Thank you, but you're too young to be near Captain Hook and his crew.'' She saw Michael's scowl. ''I'll return as soon as possible.'' Wendy turned to John. ''You're in charge while I'm gone. You can read Michael a story from one of your books.''
John smiled at Wendy before he nodded. ''Good idea,'' he said. John faced Michael. ''You'll be safe with me, Michael. I'm certain Wendy and Peter will be safe.'' He still smiled.
Wendy embraced Michael and John before she followed Peter.
The worried look on Michael's face returned. Tears began to form in his eyes. Perhaps Wendy wasn't going to return.
''Captain Hook probably won't see Wendy and Peter,'' John said. He viewed Michael trembling.
