Hi Everyone!

I am sooo (!) sorry for keeping you waiting for such a long time! Really I am! My life has kind of been turned upside town for the last couple of months and things have been rough.. I really wanted to update, but I just couldn't bring myself to write anything.. I've been feeling a lot better the last couple of weeks and really hope things will stay this way.. I also want to update more regularly again, but I am not going to promise this anymore.. that way I won't break any promises and dissapoint you when I don't update.. I hope you guys understand...
I really do intent on finishing this story though... so I hope you guys can bear with me :)

This chapter didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to be.. and it's not very long.. But I figured that if I made it longer, you guys would have to wait even longer for it... This chapter will probably get revised somewhere in the future.. but not now.. cause I'm tired ;) and I wanted to give you guys a new chapter..

Anyway, I had something planned for this chapter, but it just didn't work out the way I wanted it too, so this chapter is perhaps a bit boring... (and short.. i know..) I will try to make the next more exciting and longer.. anyway.. I still hope you will like this chapter..


He slowly climbed up the stairs to where the center of both his desire and his problems was currently residing.

Of course he could have just used magic instead of climbing up.. Or he could have send somebody to fetch her for him.. For some reason he just didn't…

Expecting to find a seething Sam upon entering the tree house, he was prepared for everything.. or so he thought.. because what he found, he wasn't quite prepared for.. what he found was.. nothing..

For a second, surprise covered his face, but this soon turned into a cocky grin. Knowing her powers were bound and it was impossible to exit the tree house other than using the door (at least safely), she had to still be inside.

"Come out, come out, wherever you are.." he mocked, spreading his arms and turning into a circle hoping to find out where she was hiding.

Her clothes were nowhere to be seen. "Too bad.. it would have made this so much more fun.." Pan thought smirking..

He listened closely hoping to hear her breathe or make some kind of movement. He got kind of irritated when he didn't. "We can either do this the easy way or the hard way.." he called out.

His expression darkened "Either way is fine by me!" he added while suddenly appearing on the second floor.

His anger flared when he didn't find her backed up into a corner, scared stiff of what he would do to her. "You can't hide from me little girl.." he snarled.

There was only one place to properly hide up here.. the closet. Knowing this, he confidently walked up to it.

Just as he was about to open it something smooth and cold slid past his neck. "Surprise" he heard a smooth voice whisper fiercely. She had a sword pressed against his neck and a smaller dagger against the small of his back. "make one move and your dead!" she quickly added.

"Quite a lot of goodies you got hidden here Pan!" she said, emphasizing the last word.

Pan chuckled. "You really think this is smart?.. You'll never escape.. I'll always find you"

"Oh, really?" Sam cocked her head. "cause It really looked like you were having a little bit of trouble finding me just now..." she chuckled "plus.. if I kill you right now, I don't think you'll ever be finding anything ever again".

She felt his body shaking with mirth "You are forgetting one little thing Sam.. I've got magic…. And you don't" he laughed.

"Even without my magic I can still kick your ass!" she hissed in his hair. As she expected he just chuckled cockily. She knew she didn't impress him one bit.

Part of her knew he was right, that she didn't stand a chance against him. The other part of her, the more stubborn part of her, refused to feel powerless against him, refused to be powerless against him..

"What did you do?!" she hissed.

"I've done a lot of things, care to explain what exactly you mean?" She didn't have to explain what she was talking about, he knew exactly what she meant.. he just wanted to hear her say the words.

"Last night, you worthless piece of shit" she spat at him.

Pan chuckled before disappearing from her grasp. He didn't leave her a chance to think about her next move because within a second he reappeared in front of her, grabbed her arms, and shoved her up against the wall.

"Watch your tongue lost girl" he hissed. His earlier joy had completely vanished and he looked absolutely seething right now.

Ignoring the fear building up inside of her, she let her anger take over. "Or what?! What are you going to do… kill me?" She cocked her head. "Oh no.." she drawled out before he could respond. "If you wanted me dead, you would've killed me already.." Sam narrowed her eyes at him "you need me".

"You are a bit too confident for a girl in such a predicament as yours"

"Well get used to it buddy, cause I'll never bow down for you" Sam snapped back.

A terrifying grin began to spread on his face as he lowered his head down and whispered in her ear. "You did last night.."

That did it. The sensible part of her brain, the part struggling to keep her anger in check totally lost the struggle.

She gathered all her anger and strength and kneed him in the crotch. Pan gave a strangled cry and crumpled up in pain, giving Sam the change to get out of his grasp and make a run for it.

She ran down the stairs as fast as she could, knowing her attempt to castrate him wouldn't keep him down for long. She had just reached the door when she was roughly pulled back by her hair. She gave a cry as she he pulled her back against his chest.

"Big mistake, lost girl, very big mistake" he snarled as he threw her to the ground.

He stalked towards her, his eyes mirroring the look of a lion hunting his prey. She scrambled backwards, still on the ground, until her back hit the wall.

Her breath hitched in her throat when he kneeled down to her, his eyes as cold as steel. He grabbed her throat with one hand and pulled her back up.

In all the time she had been on this island and faced this demon before her, she had not feared for her life as much as she did now. She had been confident he wouldn't kill her.. that he needed her for something, whatever it was..

But here he was, choking the life out of her. Watching her struggling for breath without a shred of remorse. She grabbed at her throat, trying to peel his hand off, to no avail.

Dark spots started to cloud her vision and she knew she would last long anymore.. so this is how she was going to die.. She thought about the cliché of seeing your life flash in front of you.. what bullshit that was..

She didn't want to be remembered of her crappy life.. she didn't need those memories..

She wasn't scared of death, she just wished it wouldn't come like this. She wished it wouldn't force her to look right into the eyes of the monster that killed her.

Sam forced her eyes to shut. She felt her strength leave her body, her will to fight him slowly relenting..

Her hands left his around her throat, her strained muscles relaxed.. her body was dying..

In those last seconds of her consciousness… he let go..

She fell to the floor, instinctively grabbing her throat and gasping for air. The world around her was spinning and the danger that still lurked over her seemed far away as everything around her turned dark.

But he was there.. staring at her. .staring at what he had done.. he felt nothing..

Despite his earlier feelings towards her, despite what she had done to him just now..

He felt nothing, no anger.. no hate.. no remorse.. nothing.

He turned around and stalked out. Felix had just returned from the hunt when he saw Pan. He wanted to speak to him about something they had encountered in the woods, but from the murderous look on Pan's face this wasn't the right time.

Peter Pan didn't even acknowledge him as he stalked right past him. "Pan?.. what's wrong?.. Where are you going"..

Pan didn't look around and kept on walking. Just when Felix thought he was going to ignore him he heard Pan answering in a low seething tone. "..to kill something.."


Tell me what you think.. Constructive criticism is always welcome! So are ideas, suggestions, requests.. ANYTHING! :D

I hope to be back with a new chapter real soon! I'll do my best!

Love

- A.
