I don't own Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates characters.
Captain Hook's empty bed was the first thing Cecilia saw after she opened her eyes. They widened before she sat up. She tried to remember when she was with Captain Hook. The previous evening. Cecilia was in Captain Hook's arms. Her betrothed's arms.
Cecilia trembled as worry filled her eyes. She lifted a pillow and looked under it. She placed the pillow down. Cecilia began to look under the blanket. She relaxed as soon as she saw a certain object. After lifting the object, she cuddled it. A stuffed lamb from her childhood.
Cecilia focused on the lamb's large eyes and small smile. After cuddling it again, she got out of bed. Cecilia walked out of the chamber. She wondered what Captain Hook was up to. She remembered him always planning Peter Pan's demise. The one responsible for removing Captain Hook's hand.
After stepping into a cabin, Cecilia viewed him sitting near a desk. Curiosity caused her to tilt her head to one side. Her eyes were on the feather pen he held. Cecilia stepped back as soon as Captain Hook tossed a ball of paper over his shoulder. She approached him. She watched as he turned to her.
Captain Hook frowned. ''I'm going to get rid of Peter Pan once and for all.'' His eyes settled on another sheet of paper. Captain Hook wrote something down for a few moments. His frown remained before he crumpled up the paper. He tossed it over his shoulder. His body tensed.
''Nothing is working!'' Captain Hook said. He glanced at the lamb in Cecilia's arms. A small smile appeared. He placed his hook under his face.
Cecilia began to blink.
''I'll use the lamb as bait. The Lost Boys will fly to it. Perhaps Wendy will approach the lamb. I'll trap everyone. Bait for Peter Pan.'' His smile stretched from ear to ear.
Captain Hook stood. He reached for the lamb. He saw worry in Cecilia's eyes. A sudden frown replaced Captain Hook's smile. He viewed Cecilia stepping back at a snail's pace. His frown remained.
''I'll return the lamb to you, Cecilia.'' His shoulders slumped after he viewed tears in her eyes. ''Very well. I won't use the toy,'' Captain Hook said. He watched as Cecilia cuddled the lamb. He smiled another time.
A thoughtful expression appeared on Captain Hook's face.
Cecilia blinked twice.
