With The Boys
After Curly realized Peter was back to his original self he stopped playing the flute "Ello Peter" he said smiling "I see you've all gotten native" Peter said amused , they all ran to him and untied the ropes "Hurry lad's we've got work to do" Peter said, after the boys untied him they shared nervous looks "What?" Peter asked confused, Curly decided to break the news but didn't know exactly how "What happened? Did someone hurt you?" Peter asked quickly "No one hurt us Peter, and none of us are hurt, it's Baby" Curly said, Peter looked nervous "What's wrong with her?"
he asked loudly, they all flinched "Quite a bit, she's been having weird dreams about bad stuff that's happened ere, an when she's awake she cough's up blood, even pukes it up sometimes, she won't eat but she's takin her medicine and drinking, the Indians don't know how long she'll last. She got better yesterday but it all changed in the night" Curly explained, Peter sighed and rubbed his hands together nervously "Where is she now?" he asked "The Indians, they built her a hut, she's either really warm or too cold" Tootles said sadly, Peter nodded "She's really puking up blood?" he asked concerned, they nodded "It was only once, after a real bad dream, she just ran out and, you know, we asked her what it was about but she wouldn't tell us, only said it had something to do with you" Slightly said, Peter had a feeling he knew what it was "Alright, I'll check on her later, but we have work to do" he said, they all nodded.
Later On (Baby's POV)
I was sat up in bed playing with my locket, my mother gave it to Jimmy and he gave it to me, the boys didn't really know about it, Curly explained to me how the pirates found the Tree Spirit City, Peter, I didn't know what to think anymore, Aaya told me what happened last night, how I burned up so much it was hard to touch my skin, I was staring out the window again, they all looked so sad, the battle had been a fatal one, a lot of lives were lost on our side, I didn't even know if my brother was the same anymore, he had murdered innocent lives, for himself, he was more selfish than back in London, at least back then he took care of us, now he had people his own age that wanted the same thing,
I'll bet he doesn't even care where I am right now, or the fact I might die any time, I may not even wake up from the next sleep I take, it was scary for me. I heard a thud and my head snapped to the direction it came from, it was Peter "Hi Baby" he said quietly, I jumped out of my bed not caring how much it hurt and threw my arms around his neck, his went around my waist and I didn't want to let go, I was so happy "I thought you were dead" I whispered into his ear, he rested his forehead against my own "I know but I'm here now, I can't stay long, a lot is going on, Jimmy's going back to London, he's gonna get more men and then he's going to destroy the Indians" he said, I gasped and backed up "He wouldn't"
I said sitting on my bed, I couldn't believe it "I know he's you're brother and everything, but the old Jimmy isn't in him anymore, it's just evil and greed" Peter said sitting next to me, I nodded "So, a little birdie tells me you're ill" he said, I'm guessing the boys told him, most probably Curly "A little" I said, he made me face him "You can't lie to me Baby, what's going on?" he asked, the concern in his face was clear, I sighed "I'm really ill, I was ill back in London, I just didn't tell you boys" I explained, he nodded and stood up "Why?"
he asked "You couldn't have done anything for me" I said, he shook his head and crouched down in front of me, he took my hands in his "I would have robbed all the shops in London for you" he said, I smiled faintly "That's why I didn't tell you especially, you would've gone crazy worrying about me" I said, he realized I was right and chuckled "You're right, but that's cuz I care about you so damn much Baby" he said, I nodded "I know you do, but you have more to worry about in this place, you can't worry about me now" I told him, he didn't want to listen apparently "No, remember back on the boat, the night Fox died?" he asked, I nodded a little
"I said I wouldn't let anything happen to you, I lied because you're really ill and I didn't stop it when I could've" he said, he looked like he was gonna cry "No, you have more to worry about than me, you have to stop my brother, don't worry about me it isn't good for you, I'll be fine I swear, I'll hold on just for you how does that sound?" I asked, he nodded "Promise you'll stay alive until I get back?" he asked, I nodded "I promise" I said pecking his cheek, he nodded "Baby you have to know something" he started, I shook my head "No, tell me when you get back" I said, he looked confused "why?"
he asked, I giggled "So now you have to come back, and when you do I'll tell you what you wanted to know the first day you met me" I said, he seemed to forget "You wanted to know my real name" I said, it seemed to ring a bell "Now I have another reason to come back" he said smirking, my throat started itching and I started to cough, Peter started to panic but rubbed my back "Oh Baby" he said when I pulled my hand away, he saw the blood on them and I washed them with a wet rag "Go, you have to stop my brother" I said nudging him , he nodded and flew out through the roof, I sighed and decided to nap.
