A New Adventure With Peter Pan
Chapter 10: Sea songs and Cries of a Fairy
"While I was walking down the beach one bright and sunny day…"
Bones froze at the sound of singing his favorite song not coming from himself. Looking about, he pondered on who sang it. Finding no one, the pirate suspected the mere folk tricking him and proceeded in carrying the pickle barrel.
"I saw a great big wooden box a-floatin' in the bay…"
Eyes flew everywhere on the ship. 'C'mon Bones, pull yaself together…you're singing it in your bloody head. Yep that it…' But the voice was feminine…so let us guess WHO on earth could it be?
"I pulled it in and opened it up and much to my surprise…"
Looking left it was none other than Sapphira singing at the bow of the boat. Smiling, Bones chuckled to himself and went back to his duties. So it was the Sheila singing. Wonder if the captain know that. I wonder if he knows about her ears too…..
"Ooh, I discovered a," She gave a 'boom-boom-boom' tap to the ship before singing again. "…right before my-" her heart paused at the sight before her "…eyes"
The blue Neverland sky was fading away as they left it, leaving the black blanket of space above them. Not to mention the sea below gave a deeper tint of blue, filling with the twinkling stars of the universe. They waved at the boat happily, say "Hello!" and "Good day!" as if it was normal to sail through space.
Sailin'…on the star way…still breathing too…
"Extraordinary isn't it?" asked Dereck from behind, once again scaring any contentment in Sapphira's body.
"What is it with you and sneaking up on people?" she spat. Receiving a snigger, she turned away from him not amused at all. "How are we getting to the harbor anyway?"
"Sail to it at the end of the river of course." he replied with that same smile from the cabin. Sapphira had to lean back to feel safer against the stare… "By the way, when did you learn to speak other languages?"
"Free time." she answered. "When I'm not writing and all…"
"You write?" he asked almost surprised. When she nodded he ruffled his hair uneasily. So…she's the reason why so many fairies are born now. He didn't pay attention to Sapphira now, but his mind had a question that bugged him. "Don't you miss your home?"
The girl 'tch'ed. "No."
"Why not?" he asked, suddenly interested. He missed the harbor, his own homeland. He also missed his mother deeply, and his father but he knew he'll never see the old man again. "Don't you miss your mother?"
"My mother…" come to think of it, where was her mother? Sapphira remembered when she was a baby; the memories of her parents. As the boat rocked to and fro, she memorized what they looked like. Her mom and Dad…Mother had short blue hair while her Dad had long black hair…Mom's smile was like spring to the baby Sapphira…and Dad's comfort was the comforting of fire…they were happy…. all three of them…sang songs…danced…flew?
WINGS…
"Sapphira?" the captain waved a hand in front of her face, which was getting watery eyes, but no avail. An outraged cry exploded from her as the vision flooded in like a typhoon through a tall city of hope. They left her…
Alone…
In the dark…
"MOTHER!!!" she sobbed "FATHER!!!" she fell to the floor in a heap of tears as a vibrant image filled her. Bones, who came back, at first thought his leader slapped her or something. The hell???, he thought as Derek tried to soothe her.
"Shush!" he chided softly. "Sapphira…"
"I didn't get a note to why they left me…" she babbled. "Everything was perfectly fine till they had to leave. 'I could've been in danger..' they say. But leave me with the guardian from HELL why don't they…" She was a mess. Not able to stop at all. Not able to stop crying…
Tink froze in mid flight as she heard a faint and distant sobbing of a fairy. At least, it sounded like a fairy. "Hello?" she flew about the island, looking for the noise. "Hellooooooooooooooo…" came her call. No one answered.
"They left me…"
"Who's there?"
"I miss them…"
"Who are you talking about?!"
"I want to see them again…"
"WHO ARE YOU?"
"Why did they leave me?"
drip
A tear of rain fell onto Tink's head. Peter? No, whoever's crying is doing this. More rain fell. What is this?
This is-
-Interesting, Derek watched as the disappearing Neverland turned a gray color. He could here the faint distance of thunder through his ears. Very interesting…
Peter watched the sky in complete confusion. Even though he was upset about Sapphira leaving-
"I'm not that upset…" he muttered to himself as the rain came down. "I don't cry like this anyway…I don't cry at all!"
sniff I wanna go home…. spoke the rain. The boy froze in mid flight. He knew that voice.
"Sapphira?"
The rain slowed down to silence.
…Peter?
(Peter's POV)
It was her!!!
"SAPPHIRA!" I shouted to the rain. It had to be her! I just know it is!
"Peter!" Oh noo…the rain. It was stopping! I'm losing her! I tried to fly to the voice. Her voice. I had to tell her something! Before she leaves….I had to tell her…
Tell her what? , asked a voice. I stuttered. Well?
I'm losing her…her voice is fading…Losing her…
"SAPPHIRA!" The clouds moved away from me, the sun coming back…
Peter…And they took her away with them. Peter…
(Sapphira's POV)
I stopped crying in shock. Peter…spoke to me… He spoke to me through something...but what?
Derek watched me intently. "You okay?" His red orbs showed some concern, but I didn't care.
"I…" My hands went to my sides. What happened? What did I do? I cried and I felt everything cry with me. I heard Peter…I got upset over a bad thought. A bad thought… "I don't know…"
I ran away from Derek in both fear and hatred. It was because of him I'm not with Peter, him who almost made me go against him, him who made Peter not rescue me, and HIM who brought that feeling for my parents. Collapsing into the bed I tried to not cry. No, I will not cry again.
Peter please come for me soon. I'm sorry…
(Derek's POV)
What the bloody hell…
I watched her take off and scowled. She doesn't know? My ass she doesn't. Bones raised an eyebrow at me in suspicion. Even when I explained what happened he trudged away in a huff. What did I do? I was just curious. Anyone could've asked that question.
Damn it, why am I even caring? She's Pan's little girlfriend. Okay, not little but the point got across. I shouldn't be caring about this. When I saw her in my bed shaking, I winced. And then growled to myself. Why the hell am I caring? She means nothing to me but a pawn in Peter's demise. That's why I lied about Peter having girls. (Even though it could be true.)
But if she's mad at me… I can't get to know about Peter. I know three things that'll shake him but other than that, I got squid. Perhaps if I act nice to her… No, that won't do. She's a wench, but she's smart…Unless I make our relationship to a friendly level. I can try that. And maybe in time I can get her to trade sides. With some more lies and a bit of truth. Yes, with the right moves and words…Just like what my old man said.
"A jealous woman can be tricked into anything…"
Smirking I covered the female in a blanket and walked away planning. Anything…Revenge will be sweet.
(Peter's Treehome)
Peter frowned in Sapphira's room. Ever since that spar with them, he would come to her room and look around. Sometimes sleep in it when he forgot to go back in his own room. But that only happened every night she was gone.
He found something rather odd tonight as the lost boys ate dinner. It was a shiny blue ball with bug eyes on each side and a loop through the head. Well, that was what it was to Peter. It was really a blue boom box. None the less he looked and it's 'forehead' with the wide blue eyes we all know and love. He pressed a "birth spot" and listened as a song played.
