dream lighting: Which Wendy exactly? Lol. Well this is the chapter, and I hope you'll like it. I know it's been a while, but now I'm here with it!
I don't own Peter Pan, I only own my OC!
"Let's go!" Hook ordered. "Let go of me!" I tried to break free from Jake Sorrow's hold. Then, I kicked him in his guts. "OW, IT HURTS!" Jake Sorrow cried. Before I could try to run away though, Hook was holding me by my shirt with his hook, lifting me in the air. "You do that again Miss and you'll wish you were never born." He threatened lowly.
I shivered at his words however I got the message. But, if anything happened to Peter because of me, I'd never forgive myself…
Third Person's POV
John and Michael were trying to help Chubs and Cynthia make fire, Baby and Meera were sitting on flowers, Wendy was still giving blankets, Danny was opening and closing his umbrella, Harrison was throwing rocks into the distance, Maia and Ficelle were looking at the distance from the Never Tree and the Great Chief was looking around.
"Why can't this stupid branch light up?!" Michael groaned in irritation before throwing the branch on the ground. "It's not that hard Michael." Cynthia told him, managing to create a bit of fire. Their happiness was short lived though because it was soon gone because of the wind. "No!" Chubs exclaimed. John shivered, gripping his blanket more tightly.
Ficelle and Maia were sitting on the Never Tree balcony, looking through the telescope. "Do you see anything?" Ficelle asked Maia. "Nope, not a thing in sight." She sighed. Suddenly, a bloodcurdling scream was heard in the distance, but no one knew where it was coming from. It lasted shortly, but it was enough to cause everyone to wonder who it was.
"Did you hear that?" Baby walked to Michael and asked him, apparently scared. Michael nodded. "It sounded so creepy…" he stated, shivering and holding for his long sleeves. "Michael, here's your blanket." Wendy, who was shocked just like the others at hearing the scream, offered her brother. "Thanks." Michael told her.
Harrison then stood up. "People, we're supposed to do something! How can you just sit here while it's getting colder?!" Michael glared at him. "You mean we should do something like you kissed Liz and told everyone that she was leaving?" he asked challengingly. They had problems, but Michael wasn't willing to forgive Harrison for that. In his opinion, it was Harrison's fault that all of this happened.
Harrison glared at him. "You're still upset about that?" he asked angrily. Michael huffed before blowing a raspberry at him and looking away. Harrison never really understood how Elizabeth could get along with her male cousins, nor did he really like them.
He saw her with John and Michael so many times that he was wondering how come they were getting along when age difference between Michael and Elizabeth was 9 years. Harrison liked Michael even less now, as for John, he found him annoying. What he didn't know was that the Darling boys thought exactly the same about him.
"What are we supposed to do then Mister?" Chubs asked with his arms folded. "We can't do anything." Ficelle said while jumping off a rope and landing in between Baby and Meera. "How not?" Harrison narrowed his eyes. "One, we don't know where Liz is…" he started counting on his fingers. "Two, we don't know where Peter is either…"
While Ficelle and Harrison were arguing, Wendy looked at them, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. Neverland was dying, her cousin disappeared (Why should she even care about that bit? It was her fault Neverland was in this state after all!), their leader was nowhere in sight… "But we've got to do something!" she argued, cutting off both of them.
This just didn't feel right to her. Wendy has been jealous of Elizabeth ever since she was 10 and Liz was 12, but she refused to admit it. The boys she liked liked Elizabeth instead (but she didn't realize she liked Harrison until later), John and Michael got along with Liz, but her mum always compared Liz to her? Wendy never said anything about that, but she couldn't see the point of it either when she was younger. However, when she became jealous of Elizabeth, her mum comparing Liz to her comforted her. The fact that at least she thought that she was better than the person she was jealous of made her feel better. Finally, she could see that her cousin was feeling bad, and she should feel happy.
But, she wasn't happy. When she pushed Elizabeth downstairs, she thought she would be feeling that way, but again, all she felt was a bit of shame. Now that she realized what was happening around her, Wendy couldn't help thinking that it was all her fault. She urged Harrison to tell Liz he liked her, she told everyone that she was leaving for America, and she was the one who was acting mean towards her!
Now, at this moment, Wendy didn't even understand her desire to be better than her cousin. She was popular in school, she had good grades, she had friends, her parents, siblings, and Liz also had good grades, but she didn't have as much friends as her, her parents were on another continent and she was an only child… Liz supported Wendy whenever she needed an advice before they started fighting, and this was how Wendy repaid to her?
"Race you upstairs!" Elizabeth exclaimed. "But Lizzie, what's the point when you'll win anyway?" Wendy pouted looking at the ground. Elizabeth frowned before smiling. She walked to Wendy quietly before taking her and putting her on her back, much to her surprise.
"Lizzie, what are you doing?!" she exclaimed. "That way both of us will win!" Elizabeth explained while laughing. They then ran to their room while piggybacking and fell on Wendy's bed, both of them giggling uncontrollably.
However, they had to calm down when Wendy's mum entered the room. "Girls, what are you doing?" she asked with baby Michael in her hands. "Nothing mum, we were just having fun, right Lizzie?" Wendy asked. "Exactly Wen, John, do you want to join us?" Elizabeth asked John who joined them upstairs with a smile.
John nodded smiling as well. "Sword fighting!" he exclaimed, taking his wooden sword and throwing another two to the girls. "What are you doing children?" Aunt asked them with a raised eyebrow. "We're sword fighting, just like Peter Pan and Captain Hook!" Wendy declared excitedly.
"You're going to regret the day you met me you silly boy!" John said imitating Captain Hook and sword fighting Elizabeth. "In your dreams, you Stupid Captain!" she retorted while they were jumping on Wendy's bed. "Hook, I'm here as well!" Wendy jumped up as well, sprinkling John and Elizabeth with some dust.
Unfortunately, it just made them sneeze. "Wendy, what was that?" Aunt asked at seeing the dust. "It was supposed to be Tinker Bell's fairy dust." Wendy explained sheepishly. "You won't get off this ship, you silly brats!" "Oh we will!"
This just made Wendy realize that she made mistakes. Not just one, but more of them, and they were big mistakes. She was estranged from her cousin, and possibly her brothers now, and it was all because of her uncontrollable and unneeded jealousy.
"But we can't do anything Wendy!" Ficelle tried to explain it to her angrily. She shook her head. "We need to go and find Liz and…" "Since when did you care about Liz?" John suddenly spoke up. Wendy knew what her brother was referring to very well, but did the rest have to know about it? "Because a girl's scream was heard five minutes ago?" she demanded.
John shook his head, not believing his sister. "What are you talking about? Liz and you are cousins, you get along well?" Iris walked up to the Darling trio and Ficelle and asked confused. "No! Wendy is always mean towards Liz! It's because of her that Liz had this huge bruise on her forehead! Wendy pushed her downstairs!" Michael exclaimed.
At hearing that, Tinker Bell, the Lost Kids, Danny, Harrison and Fairy Godmothers looked at Wendy in shock. "Hold on! You're serious?" Tinker Bell asked John and Michael in disbelief who nodded. "So much for John accidentally hitting her with his baseball bat." Harrison muttered, which made John look at him in confusion.
Before anyone else could say anything, they heard Maia's voice from the Never Tree. "It's Peter!" she shouted to them. At that, everyone brightened up. "Peter!" "He's here!" everyone chorused. However, they stopped when they saw their leader flying towards the Never Tree, and they knew something was wrong.
Peter always stood straightened up, his head high. But Peter right now was looking at the ground instead, his shoulders slumped. The boy who would never grow up landed in front of all of them, but it was like he didn't see them at all. "Peter?" Baby asked carefully. When he didn't answer to his call, Baby knew what to do. "PETER!" He shouted and Peter flinched before looking at Baby surprised.
"What happened?" Meera asked him worriedly. "Nothing happened." He answered absentmindedly. "Have you seen Liz?" Michael ran to Peter and asked him. At hearing that, Peter straightened up and folded his arms. "No, I haven't seen Elizabeth." He answered firmly. Ficelle frowned at the way he said it. He rarely called Liz like that. Something happened, and it was obvious Peter didn't want to talk about it.
The Great Chief joined them. "Peter, it's good that you're here. Look what happened." He told Peter who looked around, his eyes wide once he realized what the weather was like. "What happened?" he gaped while the snow was still falling. "The Neverland is…" "I know what happened, but I mean, who did it?" The Lost Kids, Danny and the Fairy Godmothers looked at each other nervously.
Tinker Bell flew to Peter. "Um, you did it." She pointed out nervously. "What?" "Only a child's tear can cause such a phenomenon, and yours caused it." The Great Chief explained. Peter looked at the Great Chief in shock. "What can we do to stop it?" he quickly asked. "What caused it needs to stop." Poppy stated, walking up to them.
"We need to find Liz." Maia told them. "And what are we going to do then?" Peter demanded, crossing his arms, much to everyone's surprise. "Peter…" John started. "No! We're going to find Elizabeth and then what?! She'll go to America anyway..." He said the last part to himself bitterly. "She disappeared a while ago, and we heard a scream." Ficelle told him. "She loves you, and you're just going to sit here and do I don't know what while she might be in trouble?!" Harrison demanded with his arms folded, standing up.
At hearing that, Peter turned around to glare at Harrison. "Who are you to tell me what to do? Besides, love is nothing but feelings of pain, anger, sadness and disappointment." He muttered, looking at the ground. John, Michael and Ficelle looked at each other in shock and disbelief. The Great Chief looked at Peter sadly, knowing what happened a long time ago very well. Tinker Bell looked sad while the rest didn't know what to say.
Before anyone could respond, an arrow was thrown to the ground near them. It had a drawing tied to it. The Great Chief untied the drawing and picked it up curiously. After looking at it, his eyes widened. "Captain Hook has Elizabeth and Tiger Lily!" At hearing 'Hook has Elizabeth' part, Peter jerked his head up.
He may have been angry and upset, but he wasn't going to let Hook do anything to Liz. Everyone gasped. "We need to go and show those silly pirates what we're made of!" Michael was jumping around before falling on the ground. Danny joined him temporarily in jumping, but he had to stop because he didn't want to slip on ice.
"Let's go!" Harrison declared. "No, you stay here to think about what you've done along with Wendy." John marched to him and told him. "But I want to help!" Wendy said with determination and folded her arms. However, John wasn't willing to believe her. He loved his sister, but he didn't like what she did in the past, and that part of him was stronger at this moment.
Peter was looking at John and Wendy in utter confusion, not knowing what two of the siblings were talking about. Tinker Bell whispered to him why John was so hesitant, and his eyes widened. However, what happened before wasn't his priority right now. They had to save Liz.
The Fairy Godmothers and Danny offered to stay with Wendy and Harrison, and after that, the Lost Kids were off to the Jolly Roger.
Liz's POV
"She knows how to jump and run!" "Who taught you that?" When I arrived at the Jolly Roger, Tiger Lily was soon captured as well, but she was tied up while the pirates along with Hook decided to play a game called 'Elizabeth Hunt'.
The point of the game was to capture me on the ship while I was running away, and I couldn't find a way to escape! I tried to see whether I could jump in the water, but Chuluun made sure I couldn't escape with his axe.
I was running to the door of Hook's cabin when a knife flew right next to me, stabbing the door! Jaro sure knew how to throw those knives… I decided to run to the deck, but I tripped along the way, falling down and in front of Hook.
The Captain smirked at me. "I think we played enough with Elizabeth now, onto the main part!" he stated, taking out his sword. I wanted to run, but I couldn't. I was tired, and I wanted Hook to just do me a favor and do what he wanted already. "Sweat dreams Elizabeth!" Hook smirked, lifting his sword up.
I put my hands up to shield myself even though I knew it wouldn't help much and closed my eyes, waiting for Hook to plunge his sword into me. Only, that didn't happen. Instead, I felt another presence landing down in front of me. "Leave her alone Hook." A familiar voice said lowly. I quickly opened my eyes to see… Peter!
He was in front of me, facing Hook with his dagger in his right hand and anger on his face. Peter then looked at the sky. "ATTACK!" He shouted, lifting his dagger up and the next thing I knew was that the Lost Kids were either landing on the deck or flying around, attacking the pirates. John and Chubs landed with brooms in their hands, Cynthia and Ficelle were throwing berries at the pirates, Meera ordered the birds to attack them like she did once when we fought the pirates, Maia landed and started to kick pirates after freeing tied up Tiger Lily, Michael and Baby were using their slingshots to attack them and Tinker Bell lifted a barrel in the air with her fairy dust.
I was so amazed by the sight that I didn't notice someone grabbing my hand tightly and pulling me up. I looked up to see Peter looking at me, and I knew why he did that. Hook's sword passed way too near us and stabbed the ground instead!
We quickly made a run for it and hid behind a nearby pillar. "Are you alright?" Peter quickly asked me. I nodded. But then, I felt a hand on my forehead and then on my arm. Oh no… Peter was looking at both of the places where Hook cut me in horror. "Did he do that?" he asked lowly. I said nothing, but that was enough for him to know that he did.
"WHERE ARE YOU PAN?! Hiding like usual? Come out you coward!" Hook's voice could be heard. Why did he say that?! Now Peter looked really mad due to the fact that Hook called him a coward. However, before both of us could do anything, a hook appeared in front of us so we quickly ducked, Peter running to the right and I to the left, respectively.
"Leave her out of this Hook! You want to fight me, go ahead!" Peter told Hook angrily. "Fine then Pan, let's do it!" Hook declared happily. I was a bit worried. He and Peter then started sword fighting near his cabin, and someone pulled me by my hand.
I was preparing my fist to punch whoever did that, only to see John looking at me. "John!" I exclaimed happily, pulling my cousin into a hug. "You're alright?" I nodded. "Thanks." Then, Asbjorn was charging at us only for Tinker Bell to throw her barrel at him, making him fall to the ground. She, John and I looked at each other before I took a nearby broom and we joined the fight.
Third Person's POV
In London, Wendy Darling was making a phone call, trying to talk to her son John Darling. "Hello?" John Darling answered. "John, we need to talk." Wendy told her son over the phone. "What is it mum, I need to go and pick Elizabeth at the airport." John answered with a bit of annoyance in his voice.
"But that's just it John. You're making a big mistake; Liz won't like it in America." Wendy argued. "Mother, we've been through this. I'm her father, not you, and I think she'll do just fine." "But you don't realize that she has friends here, maybe she likes…" "She'll find new friends, as for whether she likes someone, Elizabeth is going there to finish her studies, not to have a silly love life."
"John, what will he say?" Wendy finally asked. John was standing there, frozen before recomposing himself. "He doesn't exist, mother. Now leave me alone, I need to pick up my daughter!" With that, John hung up.
Peter's POV
Hook and I were sword fighting. "You're going to pay Hook!" I shouted. The Captain smirked. "It's not my fault that you've become such a softie when it comes to girls, Pan. A single cut and you want to kill me already."
I glared at the Captain. It wasn't one cut; it was three if we counted one from before. "I haven't!" I exclaimed angrily. But then, I remembered something. I remembered the night when John, Michael, Tinker Bell, Liz and I were coming back from the Secret Garden.
'I'll never let something like that happen to you again.' I told Liz when her arm was healed. But I did let it happen to her again… "Face it Pan, you have." Hook said and tried to stab me but I quickly flew out of the way. "That is what happens when you love someone, my dear boy." Hook said nonchalantly, striking once again. I quickly hid behind another pillar.
"You'd do anything for that person; you would never be able to live with yourself if anything happened to her, you'd want to kill whoever harmed her just like you want to kill me now, but that was what I wanted while I was enjoying cutting her skin…" My blood boiled at hearing that. "SHUT UP!" I roared, coming out from behind the pillar and attacking with my dagger from the air.
Hook gasped in a mocking way while he was blocking my attacks. "Oh, look at that! Again, so obvious, and I told you before Pan! But…" he then leaned in between his sword and my dagger. "I've also told you something else." He whispered to me but I kicked him in his leg before he could say anything.
However, it was like I didn't kick him at all. He stood up; attacking this time first and I dropped my dagger. "I've told you that she was going to break your heart sooner or later." He said, catching me and holding me so I couldn't escape. "Let go of me!" I tried to kick him to break free, but Hook held me in a tight grip.
"Your Elizabeth is leaving…" I looked at Liz to see her fighting along with John and Tink against Asbjorn, a broom in her hands. "She is leaving her cousins…" I looked at John and Michael, the latter now on the ground and sitting on Chuluun's head while Baby was kicking him. "She is leaving her friends…" Ficelle and Maia were fighting Jake Sorrow, Cynthia and Meera were taking down Jaro, Smee was running around in a barrel while Tiger Lily was firing her arrows at it like the barrel was her moving target, Chubs was rolling on the deck and hitting Dagan who fell on the ground.
"But she's also leaving you…" Hook then looked at me. I said nothing, trying not to show anything that would please Hook. "You see, Wendy was right after all, you're always going to be alone!" "NO!" I kicked Hook in his foot and he was holding it with his hands and yelping in pain. I quickly took my dagger from the ground and started attacking Hook from the ground again, but he was ready and started blocking the attacks again.
However, Hook did have a point. Liz was leaving after all… And Wendy was right as well…
"It's so obvious you love her boy, but let me tell you something. She's going to break your heart sooner or later, and I wouldn't want to be in your skin when it happens!"
"The best thing is, one day, Elizabeth will become an adult, she'll have a husband, kids of her own, she'll
grow up…"
"When she does that, you'll see that I was right all along!"
I couldn't keep fighting like this anymore. I blocked another one of Hook's attacks, but barely. Soon after that, I felt a front part of my body colliding with the deck. I looked up from the ground to see Hook smirking at me. "And I was right. Who would have thought that a simple girl would be the end to a boy who's been a pain to me for all those years?" He asked while stroking his beard happily.
Liz's POV
John, Tinker Bell and I finally managed to get rid of Asbjorn when we heard something hitting the deck. We turned around to see where it was coming from and I saw that everyone stopped fighting. I looked at the sight where the hitting sound came from and I froze in shock.
Tinker Bell, John, Michael and the Lost Kids were exchanging glances between each other and looking at the sight, but I was just standing there, not being able to think. Peter Pan was on the ground, lying in front of Hook who was standing and smiling evilly like there was no tomorrow.
Hope this ended up alright! As always, reviews are much appreciated. Until next time!
