Peter's P.O.V:
Peter walked around campus all day trying to clear his head. It was so clouded and he found it hard to decipher between the two realities he was currently living in. Peter was busy walking into the cafeteria when he bumped into someone. Emily. She glanced up at him and murmured "Sorry…" but then trailed off. He forced a smile as she said, "Oh! I was hoping to run into you…where's…" she didn't finish that sentence either. Peter sighed, "Wendy? She's at her flat."
Emily pulled Peter aside to a small, quiet corner and she whispered to him urgently, "Peter, Wendy told me that Neverland is real." Peter frowned skeptically, "When did she do this?" Emily grimaced, "When you were…uh…sleeping." He sighed, "Did she tell you everything?" Emily shrugged, "She told me where she is-Hook's ship- and how he's kidnapped her and how…" She looked pale as she stared at him, her eyes searching his features wildly. Emily continued, "Please tell me it's not true?" Peter could see the real concern splashed across Emily's face as she clutched her coffee. He sighed, "It's definitely true. And I had to do terrible things to try and rescue her. I'm asleep there now at the moment."
Emily frowned, "What terrible things?" Peter felt awkward but he had to tell her. She deserved to know the truth. Peter sighed, "I…I had to…" he swallowed hard. This felt even harder than telling Wendy. Maybe because Wendy knew him better and so there was a slim chance that she would forgive him. But Emily had every reason to hate him and think he was a good-for-nothing cad.
He hesitated before whispering, "There's a girl there…an Indian girl whose name is Tiger Lily. We used to be best friends. She comforted me when I was depressed and she bought Wendy and I back to Neverland. Her grandmother used a spell to connect us in our dreams so that we would reappear there." Emily nodded in concentration as Peter continued, "Well…Wendy got captured by Hook. Naturally I couldn't sit around and do nothing, so I went to go and speak to her. I saw him…" Peter faltered and shuddered as Emily whispered, "What?" Peter sighed, "He…Hook was kissing her. I saw through the ships window."
Emily looked like she was going to be sick. Peter couldn't blame her. The girl whispered, "So what did you do?" He said, "Hook came and handcuffed me and interrogated me. Then he put me on a boat where one of his men gagged me and he sent me to shore. Tiger Lily was waiting for me." Emily nodded and frowned as he mumbled, "She…she told me that she wanted me to sleep with her." He said it so ashamedly that he couldn't look the girl in the eye. He stared at the floor, his head in hand and shook his head, "Tiger Lily said it was the only way for me to get to Wendy and save her from Hook."
Emily gasped, "Please don't tell me you believed her." When he didn't answer, Emily knew what he was telling her. She growled, "I'm so angry right now with you Peter. I mean really you were just at Hook and you couldn't rescue her!" She stomped around and paced up and down angrily. She flicked her dark fringe out of her eyes and said frustrated, "I feel so helpless! There's nothing either of us can do to help her!" She even started tearing at the corner of her one eye and Peter instantly felt sorry for her. Unlike Abigail, Emily was a true friend. He nodded, "That's exactly how I feel. I know I didn't deserve her before, and now I deserve her even less. I feel like a complete failure, not just as a love interest, but as a friend."
He felt really depressed in that instant. As if Tinkerbell's sacrifice had been for nothing. As if all of the fairy's magic had been lost for nothing because he doubted that Wendy would ever forgive him for this betrayal. If he was in her position, he wouldn't forgive himself. Emily sighed and shook her head, "It's like the worst situation you could have ever been in when it comes down to Wendy. Talk about faith, trust and pixie dust."
Peter shrugged his shoulders, "I know. I think I'm going to the bar to drown my sorrows. I hate drinking but I don't think anything else will work at this point." Emily grabbed his arm roughly, "Oh no! You do not get to escape this mess so easily! Drowning your sorrows does not help anything! Wendy hates drinking for a reason! You will sort this out. And you will find a way to save her from that evil bastard!"
He sighed, "What can I do?" Then a memory triggered, "Wait, hang on! Tiger Lily's fiancé, Dasan, was there when she had me gagged and handcuffed! He ran towards the ship! He's probably going to save her!" Emily frowned, "Who's this Dasan guy? Why would he go against Tiger Lily's wishes?" Peter smiled suddenly, "Because he…uh he fancies Wendy." Emily rolled her eyes and slapped her hand in her face, "How did I not see that one coming?! This situation is…excuse my French, fucked up!" Peter nodded and she groaned, "You've put me off my coffee, Peter. I need to go and see Wendy, now!" He jumped, "Why? It's not like you can get to Neverland." She frowned, "Why not? Surely I can…all I need it faith, trust and pixie dust!" Peter bit his lip and whispered, "The fairies are…dead." She stilled for a moment and he honestly saw her face fall. She swayed back and forth and she whispered hoarsely, "Do I even want to know how that happened?" Peter shook his head, "I don't think so." It was like she knew it was his fault anyway.
Emily threw her coffee away and said, "I'm going to go and see her. I might not be able to do much, but the least I could do was comfort her." Peter nodded, "Thank you Emily. I'm sorry I let you down." Emily appraised him and said firmly, "It's not me you have to be sorry you let down, it's Wendy." Peter watched as she pulled her bag up onto her shoulder and marched with a purpose out of the cafeteria building and towards Wendy's flat.
Tiger Lily's P.O.V:
Tiger Lily woke up feeling like a queen. She had just convinced and persuaded Peter to sleep with her. He was lying next to her, eyes closed and he looked like an angel sent to her from heaven. Even though he had been forced, and not done so willingly as she would have liked. Anyway, he had to think about her now. That's what mattered.
She stroked his hair gently but he was in a deep sleep. He looked so much older now, and so much more handsome than he had done when they were younger. I mean even then he was good looking, but boy now was he a fine man. She knew secretly, that her father would be only too happy to call off the engagement to Dasan if she could keep Peter here permanently. He belonged here. He bought the magic with him. Even since he'd returned in his dreams, Grandma Shiera had been able to feel the magic growing strong again. She said that every day he was here it grew stronger and stronger. She could feel the life return to the island and she said if he stayed long enough, the fairies would return too. That's what Neverland needed the most. She debated whether or not to tell Peter all of this, if it would help convince him to stay. But she wasn't sure how well he'd react to that. Tink was gone and he wasn't getting her back, even if the magic did return.
Tiger Lily watched his sleeping figure and snuggled closer to him. She just wanted to lay here like this with her first love for as long as she lived. But then her happy thoughts were interrupted by none other than Kele. He was calling, "Tiger Lily?" over and over again. Tiger Lily threw on her minimal clothing. She sighed and kissed Peter's forehead. She then grabbed the handcuffs and quickly cuffed him to the wooden flooring of the tree house. There was a branch there that was just big enough to clasp them around. Just in case he decided to go after the girl. Luckily he was covered by a blanket so nobody would see what she had seen.
She scaled down the tree house quickly and said, "Hi Kele, I'm right here. What's going on?" The five year old glance up and frowned. He arched an eyebrow, "What were you doing up there? Wasn't that Peter and Wendy's tree house?" She nodded as she crouched and frowned, "It is…but uh…Wendy has gone for a while." Kele frowned, "Where? I liked her." Tiger Lily grimaced painfully and replied, "I'm not sure. She didn't say." Kele nodded, "And Peter?" She shrugged, "I suppose he's gone with her. Why were you calling me?" He stared up at her with big, brown eyes and whispered, "Because I can't find him too."
Tiger Lily wasn't sure what to reply to that. She said comfortingly, "Well…Daddy will come back for you. I promise that." Then she thought about Hook and realized how dangerous promising a five year old this was. The poor kid couldn't afford to lose another parent. As much as she wasn't a fan of Dasan, she quite liked Kele and she remembered his mother fondly. Tiger Lily frowned and she thought frantically what to do.
She smiled kindly to Kele, "Why don't you go and play with the other children? What do you want me to tell daddy." Kele frowned too and said thoughtfully, "I wanted to show Alo his cool kicks that he does." Her heart softened and she said, "I will definitely tell him when I see him. Go and play with Alo so long ok?" Kele nodded and smiled, "Alright. Thanks Princess."
He hurried off and Tiger Lily ran to the weapons storage room. She got the biggest sword she could find and stashed it into a sword carries which she tied around her waist. She was going to confront Hook head on. She was the one who had gotten them into this mess. She was the one who was going to get them out, with just a little faith, trust and pixie dust.
A/N: Wow! So quite a hectic chapter to write! I really didn't know it would get so tense, haha! But that's the beauty of writing. I have your answers, SkyrimShuffle1992 and I think they will be revealed within the next few chapters- unfortunately more waiting will be involved. But this is exciting stuff! I'm also thinking about making a Part 2 because I know how this story will end. It definitely makes way for a second addition. I'm just tying up all the lose strings . I just want enough feedback to know that it's worth/your while. Please let me know what you guys think and I hope you enjoy!
