Phase Two

Peter Pan:

"What is Baelfire planning to do?" Peter doe straight into the situation.

"Why do you have to know?" Tinker Bell couldn't give anything away.

"We've known each other for quite some time, Tink," Peter looked at her. "I'd hate to hurt you."

He watched as a look of panic flooded the fairy's face.

"This is your chance to prove your loyalties," Peter stared her down.


Bae:

He pushed the tree branches out of the way and stepped forward. The stars seemed to shine brighter than before. The night sky never left. He stared ahead and saw only a broad landscape of sea water.

This is my only chance.

He was still debating whether or not he should leave because he didn't want to leave Tinker Bell behind, but this was his only chance. If he left now, he could finally see his family once again. He wouldn't have to deal with Peter Pan or Felix.

He walked forward just a bit more, but it was too late.


Rufio:

"Baelfire!" he saw the boy standing close by. He lifted his bow and arrow and aimed straight for Baelfire's head. "Where do you think you're going?"

Rufio watched as the boy turned and surrendered. Rufio saw this as a green light and began walking forward. He kept going until his arrow was only inches away from the boy's face.

"I'd be careful with that," Baelire warned.

"Are you threatening me?" Rufio knew the other boys heard because the rest of the pack walked forward in case he needed help.

Rufio did not lose eye contact with the boy because he knew something was about to happen.

"I'm not threatening you. I'm just warning you," Baelfire informed.

"Rufio!" he looked behind Baelfire and saw Felix.

"It seems you can't escape now," Rufio said to Baelfire."

"Why do you think I'm escaping?"

"You never come to the beaches here."

"Rufio, that's enough," Felix came forward. Rufio noticed that Felix had another group of boys behind him.

"I can finish him right here, right now," Rufio kept the arrow trained on Baelfire.

"Peter wants him back at camp," Felix stood behind Baelfire.

Rufio knew that he couldn't disobey Peter, but he just wanted everyone to see that he was just as good as Felix, just as loyal.

"I'll take him back," Rufio said. "We'll meet you there."

"We're going back right now."

Rufio took a deep breath. Instead of obeying, the arrow was released from the bow.


Baelfire:

He heard Felix scream in agony. The two troops of Lost Boys instantly had their weapons drawn and ready to fight. Baelfire saw this as the perfect opportunity to escape. He slowly retreated to the left and backed away. He continued backing away until he could no longer hear the screams and the yelling.

Baelfire turned and ran. Just find another beach. It can't be that hard.

He turned left and right, looked at all of his surroundings in hopes of finding his desired destination.

There has to be another path somewhere.

Baelfire didn't see the shadow ready to swoop down. Before he knew it, his feet were no longer on the ground.

"LET ME DOWN!" Baelfire could do nothing else of scream at the shadow and continue fidgeting.

He didn't stay still, trying to loosen the shadow's grip, but it made no difference. He wished he had matches in his pocket, then he could've gotten the shadow to drop him.

Yet, the entire time, he looked down, trying to figure out where they were going.

We're probably going back to camp.

And, boy was he right.


Peter Pan:

He kept his eyes trained on the two descending figures.

"Well, it seems as if my job just got easier," he spoke out loud.

"Don't hurt him!" Tinker Bell cried out from the cage.

"I can't promise anything."

Peter Pan made sure that the fairy had no chance of escaping. "Just so you know, you'll be in that cage for a long time."

Tinker Bell only cast a worried look on her face.

The shadow descended until Baelfire's feet touched the ground. Peter simply smirked as he wanted Baelfire fall to the ground.

"Come on, Baelfire, it's not that hard to land."

The boy scrambled to his feet and brushed the dirt off his pants.

"What do you want with me?" he looked directly at Peter.

"What do I want? How about, why have you been keeping secrets?" Peter was in no mood to argue.

"What are you talking about?" Baelfire's eyes narrowed. Peter noticed the boy's gaze waver over to the fairy.

"Oh, don't worry. I know everything."

Baelfire showed a puzzled expression.

"Yes, Tinker Bell told me everything, from Wendy, to sacrificing yourself instead of her brothers. I know you're trying to escape, but I can't let that happen."

"Why not?" Baelfire asked.

"No one leaves this island without my permission."

"Well, I'm afraid that's about to change."

"You don't even have pixie dust. You can't get out of here."

And that was the cue, Baelfire ran forward and collided with Peter. He didn't expect the attack and fell with the boy. He wrestled with Baelfire, trying to pin the boy. He couldn't use his magic because he didn't have a direct shot, but he could feel Baelfire gaining the advantage. The boy had Peter pinned, but suddenly stopped fighting.

"You coward," Peter sneered. "Finish me."

Baelfire looked Peter in the eye and only shook his head. Suddenly, Baelfire lifted himself from the ground and took off running. Peter got up carefully and watched as the boy disappeared in the distance.

"He'll never find the dust."

"I don't think he'll have to," Tinker Bell said quietly.

"What was that?" Peter quickly turned to face the fairy.

"I DON'T THINK HE'LL NEED TO FIND YOUR PLACE BECAUSE HE ALREADY TOOK THE PIXIE DUST THAT YOU HAD IN YOUR POCKET," Tinker Bell roared with a sense of triumph.

Sure enough, Peter checked all of his pockets and realized that there was a missing vial.

"He can't get far. I took your supply of pixie dust," he looked back up to the fairy.

"That's not pixie dust, Peter," the fairy gave a coy smile. "That was just regular dust you took from my house."

Peter's face grew hot and shades of red began to occupy his face.

"Baelfire's going home whether you like it or not."
