"Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.

Now it looks as though they're here to stay,

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.

There's a shadow hanging over me.

Oh yesterday, came suddenly.

Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say.

I say, something's wrong now I long for yesterday."

(Yesterday – The Beatles)

PETER

"We're going to the harbor and you won't have a say in the matter, so just shut up and stay here if you're so afraid to go with us." She interrupted his speech without any ceremony. "You see, I'm really starting to think that you are the one who did something terrible to Hook, not the other way around, if you are so scared of him as to avoid visiting a simple village." She had said.

ME?! AFRAID OF HOOK?! AFRAID OF KILLIAN?! OF ROBERT, OR WORSE, MY BROTHER?! Please, you don't know what you're talking about.

He screamed inside his head as the girl turned herself back to Katherine and headed off to the forest.

Stubborn, idiot, strong headed, infuriating girl. Doesn't she listen?

Since the moment the two girls, Sam and Katherine, had left their cave, about two days ago,Peter had been trying to control his anger towards a certain beautiful ginger girl but gods, this game was getting so damn hard. She hadn't done anything to help his anger subside either. Since he had returned to Neverland things weren't unraveling as he had expected they would, eventually. Peter had returned to a bunch of boys who didn't mistreat him but weren't his friends anymore or trusted him to follow his every step and word. The Lost Boys had found their new leader. A leader he thought he once knew.

That's right. He thought he knew her still, but he was wrong. Sam had changed, and he could see that now. He realized she had closed herself to the world, to the caring feelings of others; she had locked her old and hopeful self so well inside of that mind of hers that he was truly surprised to notice this change. Or maybe she had been like that since the moment he had brought her to Neverland but he hadn't seen it? And if he hadn't been able to see this Sam back then it meant that he had only seen the child inside of her. The child that had never been loved, the child that had been deprived from the happiness all children share, from the adventures that the world could give her and that's why, that's why he had been so drawn to her back then.

But all these were only assumptions his mind led him to as he sat all alone, during dawn, in their leaving/central room. He had been doing an awful lot of thinking these past couple of days and had come to the conclusion that he hated growing up because of that.

Because of the thinking. You analyze everything and everyone when you're an adult. You see too much into things and ended getting conclusions you weren't even expecting. It was an awful thing to do.

He gave a heavy sigh and rubbed his eyes.

It's all her fault. If she hadn't gone to that stupid village with Katherine I wouldn't be so worried and wouldn't have this horrible headache.

"Peter?" Called a small voice from his far left. "Is that you?"

"Yeah, it's me alright Bunny."

The boy had kept him company these past few mornings and days also, while none of the other Lost Boys would come closer to him, or if they did was only to make necessary contact. Peter couldn't remember being so attached to the boy before, while he had lived in Neverland that is.

"Couldn't sleep again, pal?"

The little boy moved his head where a big cap was placed, signaling what Peter already knew. Bunny hadn't taken that thing off since Sam left and Peter knew it was something she had given to him. If he remembered correctly it was the same one she used to disguise herself as a boy in a time long forgotten in their past.

He waved to the boy to come sit next to him and the next thing he knew Bunny was already making himself comfortable beside him.

"I miss her, Peter. When will she come back?" Bunny asked. His voice no more than a whisper.

"Soon I think. They will both be back very soon." He looked to the boy who had his eyes filled with something akin to fear.

"What?"

"I don't know. It was just a nightmare anyway; they are going to be ok, just like you said. Sam is going to be okay." And with that Bunny closed his eyes, pulling the cap he was wearing down to cover his face.

Now, this piece of information made all his senses come to a halt. Dreams were nothing to take lightly here in Neverland. They were, if nothing more than your imagination, warnings. Warnings that shouldn't be dismissed. And he hadn't failed to notice that Bunny had only hoped Sam would turn out fine, so somehow, probably, Katherine didn't get hurt in this dream of his. Damn, he shouldn't be worrying so much, he had already sent Tink to look after them after all and to warn him as soon as something happened. They were heading straight into Hook's territory so he wouldn't risk their safety just because Sam said they could take care of themselves.

Eyeing the boy sitting beside him Peter knew that this was something important.

"Bunny, I think it's better if you tell me this dream of yours." His voice steady and calm.

"No."

"No!?" He was frustrated by that answer.

"I…I don't like it. It's scary."

"That's the more reason for you to tell me pal, so I can help find a way to make it less scary." And he finished his phrase giving Bunny a smile.

With a short nod the little boy rearranged himself in the improvised couch they had at their hideout, their home.

"I'm there but I'm not there. It's like I'm a bird or something, watching everything from every angle possible." His eyes shut while describing it. "I'm at the streets watching Sam head back to the forest after getting out of the tavern. She's looking for someone but she can't find the person and all of a sudden she's running as fast as she can."

His voice sounded breathless, like he had been running himself. His eyes still closed but his face bared a worried expression to it.

"All of a sudden a man I can't quite recognize, reach her. He gives her a punch and knocks her out cold." He opens his eyes then and stares back at Peter.

"Then everything turns black and the next thing I know she's in some old cabin, trapped and hurt. And not any simple bruise Peter, someone stabs her." And at that moment he starts crying and hides his face under his cap.

He reaches for the boy and places his hand on Bunny's back, making soothing movements.

"It's all a dream. Nothing but a dream and aren't you always by Sam's side? You know she wouldn't let anything happen with her without a proper fight." He managed to give the boy a little smile.

Bunny only nodded back at him and closed his eyes.

While Peter tried to understand the little boy's dream a cold breeze coming from high above made him shiver from head to toe.

Something is definitely not right. Maybe Bunny's dream is really…

No. I refuse to see it as reality.

The breaths of the boy next to him had come to a slower rhythm and Peter knew right away that he had given into sleep. Bunny was too shocked, too tired, too worried. He needed rest and knowing this, Peter went to take a blanket to cover the little boy body. Soon he would be shivering and he wouldn't be the one responsible for him getting a cold because he left the boy without a way to keep himself warm.

He went to Sam's room since Bunny was used to sleep with her and tried to avoid staring or being overly curious about her things. He needed to admit it that he missed her quite terribly. More now than he had ever missed her during those 4 years. The world seemed too quiet without her nearby. It was worse now that he was at her room, looking at a picture of her and her parents that she had placed at the wall. Her hair was longer there and her face looked younger, they didn't carry the weight of the things she had yet to suffer.

He grabbed the blanket and stormed out of the room. It was too painful to just stay there where her presence was all over the place.

When he got to the central/living room he spotted the boy that was the reason for him to go to her room and placed the blanket above his tiny body. He took of his cap and placed it at the floor beside the couch so Bunny could move his head freely. Peter shot one last glance to the boy and was about to turn around and leave to his room when a tiny glimpse of light caught his attention, at the far right.

The tiny ball of light came flying his way and knocked him to the floor with a strength he didn't know she had in her. Soon after being knocked out, the little ball of light started whirling and being engulfed by a cloud of golden dust. Seconds later the pixie had grown quite a bit.

"Tink!" He exclaimed but confusion and anger took place of his feelings as soon as her name left his lips. "What are you doing here?!"

"Peter, we need to hurry! Sam's in danger."

x

"In danger?! Wait, what's going on? Weren't you supposed to be with the girls? And where are them?"

Peter was trying not to scream as to wake up the little boy a few steps from him and Tinkerbell, but boy it was being hard to control his colliding emotions.

"Peter, please calm down. We need to think straight." She tried to say in a calm voice, but she wasn't fooling him. "And Katherine isn't here? We thought she had gotten away or come back already." Suspicious all over her face.

Now things were getting more confusing by the seconds.

"Tinkerbell, will you please explain what the fuck is going on here?!"

"You were never one to swear Peter. You've grown to be quite a boring and dull person."

"I can see why Sam was angry with you. But heavens this has nothing to do with what I have to tell you." Her eyes kept darting everywhere and her hands wouldn't stop shaking while she was speaking.

"Then by all that's sacred spill it out already."

"Sam finished her business at the tavern and we got out of there just to find out that Katherine wasn't at the place we agreed she should stay. Realizing that we went straight to the forest because that's where Sam told her to go if something suspicious or someone appeared."

He motioned his hand as to make Tink continue her speech.

"But soon after we started walking someone started following us, well, Sam, and running looked like the best option at that time and that's what she did but it wasn't enough. The guy reached her but I don't know what happened to her after that Peter! She didn't give me a chance to save her, she just sent me here to get some help and…"

He wasn't listening anymore. Because that was not possible.

She said she would be ok dammit. She said she could handle herself just fine.

"That's my dream! THAT'S MY DREAM!"

Shit.

Bunny was awake and screaming with his full lungs, looking shocked at Tink while tears started to fall from his eyes. The pixie went straight to him and hugged him making soothing noises, trying to calm the little one.

"Peter we need to save her. I think that I can help track her if we go to where I last saw her."

For the first time he looked at her suspiciously.

"And how will you do it? You can't track someone. You don't have that power and I know you for quite some time already Tink as to know that." His voice sounded cold and sharp.

"Well, you don't know me as much as you thought you did." She was angry at him and that was not good.

"Please bring Sam back, save her. Peter please! She will die if we don't save her!" Bunny was crying.

Die? That was new. He hadn't mentioned anything about dying.

"But what about my sister? I will help as much as I can to save Sam, I promise you Bunny, but what about my sister?"

Something flashed in Tink's eyes but he wasn't able to grasp it.

"I don't know about her Peter. I'm sorry but I don't. I was with Sam the whole time."

Anger, frustration, hate and sadness all bottled up inside his chest while he heard the sound of the wind whistling outside their hide out. Neverland, as older as he got, still kept his emotions related to its weather. It could really prove to be a pain in the ass to have this connection.

"Ok, but let me ask just one more thing."

Tink let go of the boy and stood up, locking her eyes in his green ones.

"Alright."

"Who took her?"

"A pirate."

And with that answer a loud and merciless thunder cut the deadly silence that had taken place after her answer and with it the image of only one person that was able to kidnap Sam and his sister appeared in his mind.

Hook.

LOOK WHO'S BACK!
