Oh shit. What was she doing?!

It seemed like a good idea half an hour ago, she didn't know what she would do if she spent any longer around Pan. She needed to get away. It was just how long before they noticed.

She continued her sprint through the jungle, looking behind every so often in a routine 'are they here yet' check. There was a striking pain in her side and she almost doubled only exercise she really did was walking, she was thankful for her body since she really did nothing to deserve. Running, however, was not her strong suit.

Anna pulled in repeated, nervous breaths. Her eyes darted from one dark path to the other, contemplating which way to go, even though both would probably end in disaster.

Anna knew that the sun was about to rise. She needed to find a way to go and fast.

Once the sun rose, the boys woke up. Once the sun rose, Pan came for her.

"Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh shit, oh fuck," She mumbled to herself, moving in one direction before backtracking and changing her desired path.

It was beginning to get light, that cold, hazy, gray light that bled into everything. It turned everything paler and misty, it should have been cold, it should have been pretty but instead it left her with a sense of forboding. The sky showed signs of silver with trails of red; there were strands of the sun on the ground, bringing in a glimmer of warmth that was partially interrupted by strips of melting clouds, the sun was nowhere to be seen. Across the sky were traces of violet and gold but most prominently was a strong paradise pink.

Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning.

Anna was sure that the sky was warning her against things other than the weather.

She saw the sky and almost began to weep openly, she was far away from the camp, she knew that.

But was she fast enough?

"Oh fuck!" She cried out, her voice cracking.

Falling to her knees, Anna began to rock back and forth with her head laid in her hands. The girl was muttering to herself, waiting for Pan to come back and kill her.

"H-hello?" Anna heard a voice, her head jerking up.

It wasn't a threatening voice, it was one full of nervousness and apprehension.

"Hello...?" Anna replied tentatively, she was lying in a patch of ferns, half risen from the floor, "Whose there?"

There was no reply.

"Are you a Lost Boy...?" Anna asked stupidly. Why would one of the Lost Boys reveal his position before capturing her?

Anna turned around in a slow circle, able to see more with each second the sun rose another inch, she stared into the trees as she waited for someone to come her way.

"Of course I'm not a Lost Boy!" It was a girl and she was from London, "And I take it from your question that neither are you,"

Anna stared up at the cage. The same type she had been hanging in two days prior to her and Pan's night together.

"Oh my god! How long have you been up there?!" Anna began to frantically search for some way to get the girl down.

The cage swung precariously over the clearing and Anna gasped. The girl in the cage was clearly nervous, she didn't reply to Anna's question, even though Anna had said it loud enough.

"It's alright," Anna said absently as she found the rope looped round a branch, trying to figure out how to untie the thick knot, "You can trust me,"

The girl obviously didn't. She kept her mouth shut.

Anna began to get annoyed.

"Look, do you want me to get you down or not?"

Anna stared up at the wobbling cage, her hands gripping her hips.

"Y-y-yes please,"

A sympathetic smile crossed Anna's lips and just began to get to work on the knot, she pulled at it but the rough fibers stopped her from attacking the tightly fit strands. She hissed at the pain, rope burns began to appear on her palms but she gritted her teeth and tried to get it over quickly. Effortlessly, the rope began to loosen and with a final tug it un looped in her hand.

The cage fell.

The girl in the cage screamed.

It dropped through the air as the rope span through Anna's hands, slicing them open. Anna cried out and clenched down on the rope, she gripped it in her fists and attempted to stop the cage from shattering on the ground.

Anna couldn't hold the weight of the wooden prison and fell backwards onto the ground, pulling the rope with her. Her forehead was moist with sweat as she grasped the rope with all her strength.

The cage bounced upwards as the line was pulled taught.

"It's okay," Anna yelled out sarcastically, drained of any potential energy and panting heavily, "I got it!"

The girl in the cage was too stunned to say anything so Anna just began letting out tiny portions of the rope and concentrating on not letting the cage plummet.

Very, very slowly the cage came down. It landed softly on the bed of ferns and Anna fled to open the door.

She undid the ties that were fixing the door shut and hoisted it open.

Inside was a young girl, only fourteen or fifteen with spirals of blonde hair down to her lower back. She was wearing what looked like a nightdress and was wide eyed with fear.

Anna offered her hand.

"I'm so sorry," She gasped but the girl didn't grab her hand, "Are you Pan's captive?"

Quickly the girls face changed from a look of fear to one of hopefulness. Shakily, the girl put out her hand and Anna helped her to her feet.

"For ten years,"

Anna faltered. "T-ten years?"

"Thank you for rescuing me," The girl flung her arms around Anna's slender neck and squeezed, "I'm Wendy Darling,"

Anna plucked the arms from her neck.

"Like, the real Wendy Darling?"

Wendy raised an eyebrow but slowly nodded. Anna traded her weight from one foot to the other.

"Wendy...I'm Pan's captive too..."

Wendy retreated, shaking her head, eye wide once again.

"No," She breathed, "Oh no!"

Anna moved towards her, a hand extended in condolence but Wendy moved from it like she was terrified Anna would hit her. There were tears in the girl's eyes, she must have truly thought it was time for her rescue.

Ten years is a long time.

"Why did he take you?" Anna asked softly, hoping she wouldn't cause Wendy to shed anymore tears than she already had.

"It's a long story," Wendy sighed, "We used to be friends. Pan, me and my brothers and my other friend Baelfire. Something happened...Pan changed...He's taken my brothers too...and...and if I don't do what he says...he says he'll hurt them..."

It didn't work. Wendy was sobbing. Quiet, little, polite tears that were barely audible.

"Did he...?" Anna wasn't sure if Wendy would understand what she was alluding too until the young girl's head snapped up.

"Of course not," She bit, her eyes narrowing, "As if I would ever let that monster touch me!"

Anna's mouth opened and she let her eyes drift slowly down from Wendy's gaze and fixate on a leaf in the distance. She swallowed, a chill running through her.

Wendy gasped and shook her head.

"Oh my gosh!" She realized what she had done despite Anna's broken protests, "I'm so terribly sorry!"

There was small, briefly awkward pause before Wendy perked up.

"We better get out of-" Wendy wasn't looking at Anna anymore, she was looking past the girl in front of her.

"Wendy, get back in your cage."

Anna didn't turn. She watched as Wendy's face fell and she gave a small nod, retreating backwards into her cage and closing her own door.

No, Anna didn't turn.

She ran.

Anna made a desperate attempt at a sprint and heard Pan laugh loudly, a glass shattering, maniacal, laugh. She made it about three paces before someones arm was wrapped around her waist, hauling her back.

Kicking and thrashing she fought against Pan as he spun her around, trying to get free.

She was thrown down at Pan's feet. Confused, she turned and saw it was Felix who had grabbed her.

"It saddens me Anna," Pan tilted her head up by her chin, he was on one knee, staring at her, "That no matter what I do, you don't want to stay,"

Anna exhaled, excuse-less.

"I don't want to hurt you, why can't you understand that, I just want you safe, it's dangerous here,"

"You're the dangerous one!" She yelled, darting towards him. Felix grabbed hold of her belt and hoisted her backwards. Anna fell face down in the dirt, "Keeping a girl in a cage!"

Pan held her elbow and assisted her in standing as he also got to his feet.

"As a matter of fact, I was simply coming out here to to talk to Wendy about her release," He dusted himself down and nodded to Felix, "Now, will you let Felix take you back to camp?"

Anna paused, glacning from Pan...to Wendy. If she still here tomorrow, she would know Pan was a liar.

"...Yes," Anna muttered.

Pan felt her belief stream through him and licked his lips, savoring the taste of faith.

Felix stepped towards her.

"Feeliiixxx," Peter sang, cocking his head"Play nice,"

Felix scowled but complied, ushering Anna along. They faded further into the distance but Pan held his gaze so when Anna spared one last look at Wendy, he could smile at her reassuringly and turn away.

Peter Pan marched towards Wendy's cage.

"Oh Wendy," He crouched down to her level, touching her hand with his index finger, "I'm so disappointed,"

"Peter I was just-"

"I thought we had an agreement Wendy? And I thought you knew what I promised I'd do if you ever broke that agreement?"

"Peter please!" Wendy cried, bursting into tears.

"Don't cry Wendy, it's a very unattractive quality in a woman," He smiled sweetly, "And I know how much you want to grow up to find a nice husband,"

He sneered at her and she sniffled, ceasing her crying.

"I'll give you one last chance Wendy, because I'm feeling generous but play the game right this time, I'd hate to see you lose."

"Okay," She gave in, sinking backwards into the cage, "Okay,"

"Excellent, now we can really have some fun,"

Pan walked away, grinning happily, everything was going to plan.

"Oh and Wendy?" He did not turn, "Please don't try and trick me...I'd hate to have to...take care of John and Micheal..."
