Disclaimer: I don't own Peter Pan.
A/N: I'm a bit disappointed that not a lot of ppl reviewed last chapter, and I know people read it.
But that's okay, although this chapter I'm a need for at least someone to review because I want to know what things I should change or not.
To Luvto Write: I'll work on it.
To Black Raven Raye: Thanx for the compliment. And I'll try to update as frequently as possible.
To JustWriter2: No, actually I haven't seen it. If it's really good I'll try to.
Everyone else: Thanx for reviewing.
Summary:
When Peter comes to take Jane to Neverland he notices something is troubling her. She's about to turn thirteen, turn into a young lady. And who is this new pirate out for revenge? Will Jane choose to grow up and forget Peter, or stay with him forever in Neverland? And is it just Jane or does Peter look…older?
Forever in Neverland
Chapter 2:
Becoming a young lady means
Second star to the right, and straight on till morning.
That's the direction Jane, Peter, and Tinkerbell of course, were flying. Toward the fabled land of Neverland.
While usually just the thought of going to Neverland filled Jane with thoughts of joy, which was a tremendous help with her flying, she was having trouble keeping up with Peter and Tinkerbell.
Her usual happy thoughts were replaced by the memory of Peter actually yelling at her because she said he looked older. 'He's never yelled at me before.' Jane sadly thought. He acted like the mere thought of him growing up was going to make the Sun fall from the sky.
'Think happy thoughts.' Jane ordered herself, 'Let's see…the Lost Boys, Mum's cookies, my birthday ball, becoming a young lady.'
That thought came back to her mind again and that was enough to make her start falling.
"Peter!" Jane yelled to get his attention. In the blink of an eye Peter had doubled back, swooped down, and caught her, deciding to carry her the rest of the way bridal style.
Jane couldn't help but notice something Peter never had before, an Adam's apple. He had definitely gone through puberty. Jane couldn't help but giggle at the thought of Peter Pan with a high and squeaky voice. (1)
"What are you laughing at?" Peter strictly said, surprising Jane, "You could've killed yourself, what part of that's funny?"
"Someone that doesn't know the meaning of real life problems wouldn't understand." Jane stubbornly replied.
It didn't matter that this was Peter; she certainly wasn't going to let anybody other than her parents lecture her. Who did he think he was?
The island of Neverland soon unfolded before them, and as soon as it did it didn't matter that she was going to become a young lady soon; here was the most magical place in the universe, here were the Lost Boys.
Tootles, Nibs, Slightly, Cubby (2), and the twins.
She was their mother, and she couldn't very well let them down.
In a dark, unexplored cavern sat a throned figure in the absolute dark.
Not that they minded. If anything, they found that they thrived in the dark.
"Are you all ready for our attack?" The throned figure asked the men before it. A loud cheer was their reply.
"Good, then very soon we will have our revenge." The leader told the men, whispering, "No more hiding in fear."
No more than five seconds had passed since Peter and Jane landed that the Lost Boys suddenly appeared and started bombarding them with questions.
"Mum, will you tell us a story?"
"Why were you gone so long?"
"Can we play a game?"
"I'm hungry; can you make us some cookies?"
All at the same time.
"Boys, boys, one at a time." Jane said, trying to calm the rowdy boys down. "I guess we could play a game for a while. If it's alright with Peter, of course."
All the Lost Boys immediately turned to Peter with smiling, hopeful faces, silently begging him to agree.
"Alright. Let's play some tag." Peter replied, and the lost Boys immediately erupted into cheers.
"Captain the men have prepared the ship. We're all ready to go." A pirate told the throned figure.
Slowly, they stood up and casually strolled out the cave.
Their eyes winced adjusting to the light they hadn't seen in what seemed a long time.
Boarding the ship, Captain Hook's old ship, the Jolly Roger, the captain immediately took charge, "Prepare to set sail! We're going to war boys!"
"Where to captain?" A pirate asked.
"The Piccaninny tribe!"
"You sure you're okay mum?" Tootles asked Jane.
He and Jane always paired up when they played tag; at Jane's request. Jane said it was because he was easily the smallest of the Lost Boys, but truth be told, it was just because he reminded her of her dear little brother.
"Well, yes, no, maybe…sigh…I'm not sure actually." Jane explained," I'm going to tell you something Tootles, but you must promise never to tell a soul, agreed?"
"Yes, mum. Cross my heart and hope to die."
"In just a little while it'll be my thirteenth birthday, in society's eyes that means I'll be a young lady. Becoming a young lady means…it means I'll have to grow up. I can't come to Neverland anymore."
A/N: Hey, all. Srry for the late update, but I'm working on another story at the time and it has some faithful readers.
I'll try to update sooner next time. Anyways here's what the nubers mean:
(1): When a boy's voice cracks is when his adam's apple is forming. That's what that part meant.
(2): I know Cubby's original name is Curly, but I like Cubby more because it's cuter.
Pls read and review!
