Sorry it took so long! But here it is, chapter 14!
"What?" Peter stammered as he charged at John. John blocked him, threw Peter's sword aside and pinned him against the wall. Peter squirmed but he had him in a tight push and a sword to the throat.
"Don't you remember me?" Peter stared at the blue green eyes and black hair. Then he had a flash of a young boy flying through the air, laughing, smiling, Wendy was there too.
"John………Wendy's brother?" Peter asked
"That's me." John said coolly. Peter's eyes grew wide.
"We left you…….we left you with Hook! Wendy was so scared and sad………………oh no." Peter looked around skittishly
"What?"
"Well…………you wouldn't still be mad about that would you?" he eyed the sword at his throat nervously.
"Let's just say it's in the past. Now I'm going to go and save Ian and Tootles." He released Peter. "Will you help me?" John offered out Peter's sword.
"Sure!" Peter grabbed his sword and they began to run down farther into the cave. Peter crept behind John, sword brandished. They walked down through the long cave. Water dripped from glowing stalactites. Shadows from the fire still illuminated the way. Just as they were turning a corner, Peter hit John over the head with his sword. With a little "oh" John crumpled to the ground in an unconscious heap.
"I think I'll be doing the rescuing myself, thanks." Peter flew farther off down the cave, and once again, he left John behind.
Eric and Sondra raced up the hills to the cave. The shadows had moved back farther into the cave. Eric tripped and fell but scrambled up immediately. Now there were no more people shadows, just firelight. They reached the mouth of the cave, no one was there. It was meditatively silent.
"Where'd they go?" Sondra asked as she peered around.
"Let's go find out" Eric began walking towards the back of the cave.
The Lost Boys (actually, everyone but Tootles) stumbled through the forest in search of Peter. They weren't exactly sure where he had flown off to, but they knew it was somewhere near the waterfall they just passed. Or was it near the big old tree? The sandy beach? The pond where frogs chased you? They really didn't know. The Lost Boys were hopelessly lost. The Twins turned a corner and found a dead end, where there should have been the base of a mountain. So they turned and kept moving left, or was it right? They tried not to panic…..but of course that didn't work out. They began yelling at each other, blaming one another and throwing punches. A shrill scream echoed in the night. They looked around, no one over here had screamed, where did it come from? It sounded familiar, where had they heard it before? Suddenly it hit all of them "Tootles!" they yelled and raced off in the direction of the scream.
