Chapter 10:
A.N. Here is chapter 10 double digits I have been having occasional writers block but I got this put and I hope you guys enjoy :)
Within seconds I hear crows in response that get louder and louder. They found us and were on their way. I turn around and see Hook kick the door open and his face flooded with anger.
"Don't just stand there like a bunch of idiots…get her and bring her to me!" and within seconds they charge my way. Left or right? My inner instincts tell me left and I'm glad they did so I run that way and am closer to the dungeon and Peter. I wonder what he'll think of my acts this time.
"Ello Poppet." I hear and a familiar pirate the one who hauled me over his shoulders appears right in front of me stalling my escape. He grabs my arm and I kick the on spot males hate to be kicked in which sends him kneeling and wincing.
"Wow not good on the resume if you can't handle an army of boys and a teenage girl." I smirk and continue my run and before long I'm at the dungeon doors. I try to twist the knob and I find it locked and hear the charge get louder. I hear footsteps and I instantly with just seconds to spare slide into a barrel clasping my mouth so no one can hear. The charge comes to silence as they look each way while I am watching through a peep hole in the front of the barrel. I clutch my chest with my other hand and sigh in relief that my thimble is still there.
"Where is she?" "Don't know why are you looking at me?" "You had her!" "Oh the captains not going to like this lets keep looking" and I hear footsteps fainter and fainter that is when I pop out. No one is there and I resume trying to get the door open and come to no avail. I begin to think and wonder how I can get it open. Just as I try again I hear a big bang from inside and jump back in shock. After a light hesitation I twist knob and find the door unlocked and slowly walk inside.
Its pitch dark and scary filled with the stench of rotten skeletons, food and other disgusting things almost making me gag. "Peter where are you?" I whisper and look around for him and find a figure that looks like he is looking out the window. I sigh in relief and make my way to him. "Oh my god I was so worried I was hoping you were still on the ship even alive." I gently grab his cheek and turn it to my face but instead of Peter I see a skeleton head with his jaw wide open and a bug crawling out. I step back and gasp and run into something sending the pile it was crashing making a loud noise revealing yet another skeleton. Let out a shriek and walk into a hard chest and arms pulling mine down to they are by the other persons hips. "Sh Wendy it's me Peter." I hear from the familiar and turn around see him staring down on me. I give in and embrace him as tight as I can. "Oh thank God it's you." I say as he strokes my back. "I say the same Wendy." As I look up at him and he leans into me and our lips touch. It has been a long time since I kissed Peter and I feel like this is where I'm meant to be beside him. The kiss I feel goes more passionate and I quickly lose my balance and hear a clash of glass startling me and pulling apart from him. We both look and see the window broken and look out to it. "What was that?" Peter asks.
"Tootles lost control of the slingshot he flung it the other way. Little boys you can't trust them with anything" I hear from John as he crawls up so we can see his face clearly and I clutch his face so hard against my chest. "Oh my god John I'm so glad you are alive. Where is Michael?" "Right back at you sis and as for Michael he is up front ready for his attack waiting to strike and can you please let go I need air to breathe!" I let go and release his head from hanging inside. "Sorry what's the plan?" "Well the crow got us here and the crow will get us ready." "Got it John. Wait Wendy the crow was you?" Peter says as John climbs up so he is above us and looks back at me and I feel my cheeks warm up and flush red. "Yeah I figured if you couldn't I should." He smiles at me as he pulls out his sword and looks at hit. "After all this time it's Hook or me." I look around and see one skeleton has a sword in his hand and my mind goes flowing. I go over and wrench as I pry it out of his cold dead hands and look at the sword. It's not as fancy as Hook and Peter's but it will have to do. "I'll be right behind you like I was 5 years ago." I say "Did you practice in those 5 years?" "A little bit." Then I handle the sword in my grip and strike for the head and Peter blocks. "You have more experience though." "Touché Wendy." He says as there's a bang on the door and it falls down open with Smee standing in front.
"Captain found her!" he cheers as the pirates move out of his way forming an aisle like the ones where brides walk down and Hook at the top of the stairs. "Young love never lasts Wendy just saying. Now as for you Peter proud and insolent youth after all this time of fighting, uncertainty and retrieval prepare to meet thy doom." Peter steps forward and before thinking I cut a rope and piles of gun powder come falling down onto the pirates. "Good form" Peter and Hook say in unison and the fury in their eyes intensify. Is this a love triangle? Eww he is so old! "Dark and sinister man filled with hatred, envy and more…" he lets out a crow and within seconds the lost boys border the ship and the pirate vs. lost boy fight begins.
