Chapter 1: New and Old.
Hey!!! This is my first Peter Pan fanfic. Be kind! Post Return to Never land. (Jane + Peter are 13.)
*Knock, knock.* Wendy heard a nock at the door.
"I'll get it mother!" Shouted Jane as she ran to the door. She opened the door to find a girl standing outside. She had auburn hair and warm brown eyes. She wore a green, long sleeve dress that came down to her ankles and was belted at the waist with a darker green ribbon.
"Hello, my name is Gwendolyn Anderson, is this the Darling residence?" The girl asked.
"Yes." Jane replied. "This is. I am Jane Darling. What do you want?" Jane sensed something familiar about this strange girl.
"Is there by any chance a Wendy Darling here?"
"Yes, that would be my mother."
"May I speak with her?"
"Oh yes dear, come in!" Wendy shouted from the parlor.
Gwendolyn shuffled into the house. Jane led the strange girl to the parlor.
"Sit down dear. Now tell me, what is your name?"
"Gwendolyn, m'am."
"Call me Wendy. Now what is it that you want?"
"I have heard rumors that, when you where a child, you where swept away by a Peter Pan, correct? I would like to know if these rumors are true."
"Well yes, the rumors are true…."
"Why do you want to know about Peter?!" Jane shouted.
Gwendolyn turned to face Jane. " Eight years ago, when I was five, my mother was still married to my biological father, who was in the army. I had a twin brother. We had just learned that a group of men from my father's troop were killed. We were awaiting word of his condition. We all prayed that he was alright. Later, a messenger with a grave look on his face came. He handed my mother a letter. She opened it and burst into tears. 'I'm so sorry.' said the soldier. He left. My mother turned to us and said, 'Children, your father is dead.' We all cried. Three weeks later, my brother disappeared from his bedroom, the only clue was some fine gold dust on the window sill. The window was open. After that, my mother became different. She beat me and made me sleep in the cellar. She later remarried Bob Anderson. His son, Alexander, moved into my brother's old room. One night, I passed Alexander's room. The door was open and I could see the window I saw a flash of green and a flash of gold. That was eight years ago…"
Wendy recalled Peter saying something about how he went back to look into his old room and saw another child in the bed. "You couldn't be.." Wend whispered.
"Be who?" Questioned Jane.
"Before my mother remarried, my name was Gwendolyn Pan. Peter Pan is my twin brother." Gwendolyn said.
"What?!" Shouted Jane.
"My new father does not like me and told my mother to put me up for adoption. I thought that if I could find Peter, she would be happy again and stop beating me."
"I am too old, but Jane can take you."
"I never agreed to this, mother!"
"I am telling you to help this girl find her brother! You will go with her and that is final!"
"Ok mother."
"Gwendolyn dear, do you still have the gold dust?"
"Yes."
"Please go back to your house and get it. Jane will come pick you up and you will got to Never land and get Peter."
"Yes."
"Ok….."
Gwendolyn left the Darling house and headed home.
