Yes, Alice, Hook is my father. Did you not know? Well, don't worry your pretty little head about it. Alice looked at him, her expression frozen and was thinking about nothing else. Jack laughed and turned back to his father.

What's happened down there? Any trouble?

No. Not really, but her 'boyfriend' tried to pick a fight. Alice stopped me before I could do anything. What do we do now?

Now I have a plan, but first tie her up. We can't have her run away. Alice heard this and was picked up. Her were hands held behind her back and she was stood up. Alice looked up and saw jack grinning. He took her her hands and grabbed a rope. Slid it up and down through her hands.

What do you want from me?

Oh, you'll find out. Once he was done he picked her up and sat her down in the back of the ship near the corner. He tied her feet up and then put a blindfold around her eyes. Her world went dark and all she could do was hear. She heard jack talking to his father about the plan of his.

Jack?

Yes, father?

Did you want to hear the plan?

Yes, i did, what is it?

Well, we know that Alice came through the void right? That void leads to the human world and if we can get into that void…

We can control the place where Alice lives and be the best pirates who ever lived!

Exactly son! Now all we is for Alice to speak. They both looked over at her and Jack was now standing in front her. He pulled her up and she could now sense both of them in front of her. Jack gripped her arm and pulled off her blindfold.

Now you're going to tell me how to open the void and how to navigate it. So my father and I can take over your world.

I'm not going to tell you anything!

I'm starting to get impatient Alice! She didn't want to make him even madder, but she didn't even know anything about the void. Jack and Hook didn't know that.

I don't know anything about the void.

You're lying. How did you come here? If you didn't know a thing about the void, how could you have gotten here?

I'm telling you I don't know! Something pulled me into a portal and then I was alone in the dark. Until Peter, who didn't even know me, helped me and brought me here! That's all I know! Alice was fed up with people not believing her. She was telling the truth and everybody still didn't believe her. Alice dropped to her knees and pleaded to the both of them.

Please, that's all I know about the void. I've told you everything. Now let me go! Jack and Hook looked at each other. They were thinking the same thing. Hook evilly grinned.

Oh, we can let you go.

Really?

Of course. Just come over here, my dear. Alice was guided over to the edge of the boat. She looked up at him in confusion and back down at the murky deep water below her. Alice could she the small island to her right, that once welcomed her. What had gone so wrong? Her mind snapped back to reality when Hook spoke.

All you have to do is jump down into the waters and you're free! Unless you want to tell the truth and save your life?

I'll tell you for the last time, that is all I know! Alice looked toward jack and didn't understand why they weren't believing her?

Why don't you believe me?

My dear Alice, it's just that, we've only know you for an hour or so. You must understand and didn't you say something like that the first time you and your 'boyfriend' met? Hmm? She looked at him, thinking back to when Peter had dropped her and she didn't trust him very much. She realized that had only been a few days ago and so much had happened. Alice turned her head back to Hook nodded. Her face still and motionless. She let him untie the ropes and she stepped up onto the wooden edge. Thoughts racing through her mind like leaves on a windy day. Alice looked down at the dark raging waves below her. She was about to take a step forward, when…

ALICE! DON'T JUMP! She turned around and the behind her was the only person she could have ever wanted to see right then. Peter stood on the deck below her, his face full of worry and anxiousness. He turned to face jack and Captain Hook.

Let. Her. Go. Jack had had enough.

Why should we? She was not telling us anything, but lies. She wouldn't tell us anything she knew about the void and she knows a lot more than she thinks.

How could she lie? She didn't even know Neverland existed until a few days ago. Even I don't that much about the void, this thing is knew to all of us. Alice stared at him and was about to step down when, her foot slipped and she felt air rush past her. Screaming and screaming, she looked at the raging sea coming closer and closer toward her. This feeling felt familiar somehow. She eyes flew shut and Alice curled herself as tight as she could. Seconds passed and the air stopped her. Alice looked down at the sea below her and back up to see someone holding onto her hand. A soft voice spoke.

Why would I drop you? Right then, right there. Nothing else matters, except her and Peter.

Don't know? Because you love me. Maybe because you don't want to lose me. She looked up and laughed a bit. He looked down at her and smiled.

You couldn't be more right. Her pulled Alice up and took hold of both of her hands. Both of there eyes unbreakable and nothing could ruin that moment. Suddenly an angry shout came from the ship above them.

Come down up here and fight like a man, boy. If you think this is over, you're sadly mistaken. Peter looked at Alice and whispered something into her ear.

Care to do the honors, ma'am? Alice smiled back.

It would be my pleasure. Peter brought her up to a rope and let her swing down. The wind blowing through her blonde hair and brushing across her face felt so good. She put her legs out in front of her and prepared to do what she was thinking. She was a few yards away, feet away, inches away, nothing between them. She pushed against Hooks stomach and he went flying across the deck. Knocking Jack over, Jack fell on his back unconscious. Hook stumbled back and went right over the side of the boat. Alice landed and ran over the side of the boat. She looked over and saw bubbles.

Now, where have I seen those before?

This should be fun! Alice looked over and saw Peter standing next to her. They both looked toward Captain Hook and saw a splash of water then his body sucked underwater. After a few minutes the bubbles stopped and Alice let out a sigh of relief. She looked back to where Jack had fallen, but something was wrong.

Peter…?!

What's wro-... Oh god! They both turned toward where jack had fallen, but there was no one there!

Jack's gone! Where did he go? He was right there a few seconds ago!

I don't know either, but one thing is clear. He will come back, one day. I looked back toward my new home, the island that was once a strange foreign land to me. I walked to the boat, and my steps fast and light. My heart was full of relief and joy, now that I was free. I hear the boy that saved my life once again, come behind me and put his head on mine. He sighs and looks at me, his eyes full of pride and happiness.

You did it! We're free.

I didn't do it alone, I would've been dead if it weren't for you.

Let's go home.

What about the Fox and the others? Are they on the island?

Ya, they are. They swam back when they got me free. He took her hand and they were lifted off the boat. Flying through the air, birds chirped and fish jumped out of the water, as if they knew what had happened. Watching the island come closer and closer, she felt something that she had not felt before. Belonging. She knew that people wanted her here and they wanted her to stay. Her feet touched the warm soft sand and heard the waves washing back and forth, back and forth. They both sat down on the warm ground and saw the bright sun shining on them.

Do you really wanna stay? Alice looked over and at what he had said.

Of course! Why not?

I mean, after what just happened… I thought you would have second thoughts.

Peter, nothing on earth could match what Neverland means to me. Here every day is something different and exciting. Back home, every day is the same routine, same things everyday. I am wanted here, but over there I am not wanted. Nobody thinks anything of me… Alice looked down and played with her dress.

Alice, you're the most amazing person that I've ever known, and if no one over there can see it… than ignore them. They're just jealous of you and are stupid. You have new ideas and you're not afraid to try something new either. So, will you stay here with me … and the lost boys? He looked at her, anticipation nipping away at him, bit by bit. Seconds passed and the breeze danced between them. Finally, she spoke.

Yes, I will. Her eyes sparkled with excitement and so did his. Peter flew up into the air and made a cry of happiness. He flew down and landed in front of her.
