Chapter two
Noelle POV
I laughed as we land in the water with a splash. As I climbed down from the Crow's Nest, Hook came towards me. Then I remembered that I was his captive.
"Now unfortunately, you still are my captive, and therefore I will have to tie you up." Hook said in mock sincerity. I nodded, slung my bag over my shoulder and went to stand with my back to the mast. I noticed that the mast was covered in twinkling dust. That's when it happened. The moment my back touched the Pixie dusted post a searing pain shot up through my body, burning most in the middle of my back.
I grunted in surprise and pain, foolishly pressing against the post. This only intensified the pain. As I struggled to end the contact between me and the post, I heard a strangely familiar crow, accompanied by the twinkle of bells.
It's Peter Pan! I thought excitedly, while bending my body away from the post. To anyone else, what I was doing looked impossible, but to me it was a snap. My family came from a long line of contortionists, so bending my body in completely impossible ways was something I'd learned form day one.
"PAN!" Yelled Hook, as I reached for a stray dagger with my toe. As Peter landed on the deck, I was busy cutting the ropes by holding the dagger in my feet. As soon as I was free I leapt away from the post, clutching my burning back. As Hook and Peter locked in a brilliant sword fight, I barely noticed the twinkling light until it spoke to me.
*Are you all right?* The bells said.
"I'm not sure yet, but thanks for- Tinkerbell?" I asked, surprised. Now I hadn't had much experience with Tinkerbell, but in the stories she was portrayed as a mean, jealous character. This was why I was confused as to why she was talking to me and why I could understand her.
*You're different from the others.* She said twinkling mischievously.
"What? How?" I asked, trying to ignore the shooting pain in the middle of my back. Groaning I placed my hand on my back tried to stop the burning.
*We have to get you out of hear.* Tinkerbell said. *Come on, Fly!*"Don't I need Pixie Dust?" I said while trying to locate a happy thought.
*If you insist.* Tink said as she sprinkled me with the magic dust. I gasped in pain as the dust settled on my skin, leaving tiny red marks. I hissed at the burning, whispering a very colorful stream of mutterings. I stopped suddenly because the words were sounding strange, very… Tinkle-y. Tinkerbell was looking at me in wonder.*Do that again* She said.
"Do what?" I gasped, reverting to my colorful mutterings.
*That. You stopped speaking English. You're speaking Faerie. How did you do that?* Tink said in fast-paced bell-speak.
"What…?" Was all I could say as the first onslaught of pirates ran towards us.
THE END!! Not of the story, of the chapter. R&R!!
