Disclaimer: I don't own Peter Pan. (Wish I did.)

A/N: Kay, the original ideas are just going to keep on coming this chapter. Hope you still like it though.

To ray1: You still like it though, right?

To cerberus angel: Thanx! And, well, she is evil, and taught by Hook, so I thought it would be natural for her to cheat if she felt threatened.

To Black Raven Raye: I don't know what to say...I guess thank you is a good place to start, but it doesn't seem like enough.

Forever in Neverland

Chapter 8:

The Castle Beyond The Looking Glass

Sapphire watched the water as the Jolly Roger made it's way towards it's destination.

'Right back where we started.' She solemnly thought.

Right back where everything started. Where Hook took her after saving her life, where she gained whatever memories back, where she had hid for so long.

She had been so scared for so long. When she first laid eyes on Hook she feared the man, he's not exactly the first memory a twelve year old girl wants to have. Then he taught her everything, and he became like a father for her. At the time she was so desperate for any type of paternal love that she didn't mind when he told her he wanted her to help him take revenge on Peter Pan.

It didn't occur to her that he might've just been using her ever since the moment she first saw him.

Then in the blink of an eye, everything was over. James Hook, the man she thought of as a father, was dead.

She found out who had done it. It was Peter Pan. The bastard (A/N: sorry, this is Sapphire's opinion.) who left her to rot. The same one who replaced her, first with Wendy, John, and Michael, and then with Jane. All he seemed to do was play with people's emotions and then throw them aside.

Someone like that didn't deserve to live, let alone be as happy as he always was.

No, she might've not helped Hook when he asked her to but she would avenge her mentor. She would make sure Peter Pan was wiped off the face of Universe, but first he had to suffer. Suffer like she had. Which could only be done by taking away the thing that brought him most joy. As far as she could tell, that was Jane.

It only helped that she was Mary's granddaughter. She could make them both suffer at the same time.

'They should all suffer.'

She didn't just want revenge, she needed it. More than the air that she breathed, she needed people to feel what she felt for so long.

'Betrayal, hurt, fear, jealousy, pain.'

It all came back to the same source: Peter.


Everything was happening so fast for the Piccaninny tribe.

First, they were attacked by the newly rebuilt crew of the Jolly Roger, then, they weren't sure if their young Chief would survive the night. After two days of intensive care, it was announced Tiger Lilly would be fine and up in her feet in no time.

However, they were then visited by Peter and the Lost Boys. They wanted something insane. For the Piccaninny tribe to help them find Jane.

That's not the insane part. The insane part was when Tiger Lilly told him who it more than likely was, Peter wanted the tribe to help him attack the pirates head on.

They had just suffered a great loss at the hands of the pirates and now they were to track them down and face them again?

Tiger Lilly cared about Jane, she cared about her tribe's honor, but she wasn't sure if she could go through with that plan of action.

It wasn't until she saw that they had found the knife she had given Jane. That moment she knew Jane couldn't wait. She had to be in a lot of danger for her to just drop that blade.

In that moment, she decided: she would rescue Jane and get her tribe's honor back!


Jane's cell door slowly creaked open, jolting her awake.

Why had she allowed her defenses to go down, if even for a second? How long was she out? Was it Sapphire coming to annoy her again? If not, then who?

"Good morning, B.Y.T.," it was Sapphire, "How are you doing?"

"Oh well, I slept on a peice of wood, I haven't eaten since last afternoon, and I think you have a leak," Jane stomped her foot which met with a splash, "I've been good."

"You know, sarcasm isn't cute, duchess." Sapphire was more than a little ticked off. She was being as polite as she knew how to be and she was being mistreated. It's not that she cared how Jane felt, she just didn't want her to die...yet.

"You ready to see your friends again?"

This had to be a trick, Jane thought, there was no way Sapphire was just going to let her go without doing anything.

Before she could react, Sapphire opened the door and violently grabbed Jane's arm and dragged her out of the cell and up the steps. The light hurt Jane's eyes after being in the dark for so long, though it didn't last.

The Jolly Roger sailed into a dark cave. For some reason she felt a prescense in the cave that almost dominated her. She could barely breathe! Which made it easy for Sapphire to handle her.

Soon after the ship came to a complete stop. Sapphire pulled Jane to her feet as she barked orders to the pirates. Jane couldn't hear anything but her own thoughts.

'I'm going to die,' were Jane's melancholy thoughts. 'What will happen back home? To mum? To Danny? To father? To...Peter?' She thought before she could stop herself. She couldn't feel hope anymore. For some reason, she couldn't believe that Peter would come and rescue her just in time, just as he always did. Like the hero of Neverland he was.

Sapphire pulled the smaller girl off the ship and through a series of pathways in the cave.

"You see that?" She asked Jane when she stopped.

Jane's heavy eyes looked up. "A looking glass?" She asked confused.

"Yes, get closer." Sapphire let her go.

Jane should have taken the opportunity to try to run away, she knew that, but she couldn't. There was something about it that called to her. It was telling her to touch it, she had to touch it. She walked up to it, barely a few inches away, and watched her reflection strangely, as if it wasn't her.

Her hands trembled as she reached for it. She had to touch it, she was about to, so close.

She was suddenly pushed against it and she felt it move aside to let her fall to the other side of the cave wall. 'A trap door!'

"Oh, I can't believe I fell for that!" Jane lectured herself when whatever spell the mirror had put on her had worn off.

She looked around. It was darker there, wherever there was, than back in the cell. She tried to feel the cave walls for an exit when the sound of giggling interrupted the silence. A shiver went down her spine, the sound was ghostly.

"Mary!" A child's voice called out in sing-song.


A/N: Well, I'm finally back. I finally bought a new charger, so I can finally work on my fics again. Yay! Please give my fic another chance, I promise I won't be gone for months again!

Well, I borrowed the title from an Inuyasha movie, so I should probably say I don't own Inuyasha.

Please review!
