Peter started for the house, causing the wind to whip over the both of them. Lauri smiled at the stars, hoping Wendy was watching. In a sudden gleeful moment, She sat up on his back, spreading her arms and laughing with glee. Peter glanced back at her and smiled. Now far from Tara's house, he dropped to the ground. "I can't carry both of you, so you'll have to wait here with Tink while I go get her."

Lauri looked around, having not noticed the pixie. Tinkerbell had her back to her, nearly turning red at being left behind with the girl. Peter laughed and flew to the window Lauri directed as being Tara's room. He tapped the window gently and waited until the girl opened the window. Tara looked around sleepily before her eyes move between Lauri on the street a little over a 50 yards from her house, and the boy levitating beside her window. She squealed when his identity dawned on her, "Peter Pan!"

"At your service, madam." He grinned, "I believe Lauri wanted you to meet me!"

Tara nodded gleefully, about to grab his hand and step out the window. "Oh hold on a moment!" she ran back into her room, pulling on a jacket and socks. When she returned to the window, she looked over Peter's shoulder and screamed, "Peter! Look!"

Peter spun and gasped at the scene below. A large ship floated in the sky, as pirates struggled to contain the protesting Lauri and pixie. Tinkerbell was knocked into a bush nearby, as a large man grabbed Lauri from behind. She screamed, "Peter! Help!"

The girl was gagged and tied before you could say 'Captain Hook' and tossed up into the ship. The pirates climbed the ropes after her as the ship began to take flight once more. Peter grabbed Tara's hand and took after the ship before Tink's stifled tinkling reached his ears. He spun midair, almost dropping his cargo. "Tink!" He dived to help her, finding her tangled in a spider web. Tara helped get the slimy substance off the pixie's wings before Peter grabbed her once more and took off, though the ship was no where in sight.

Tara shut her eyes against the wind, grasping Peter's back. When she opened her eyes again, they were high above the city, flying to the right of a bright star. Suddenly the world around them began to distort and echo. It was some sort of time tunnel they were being sucked into, and for a moment Tara was scared. Just as quickly as it all appeared, it was gone again. She glanced below and noted the expanse of bright blue sea. This was insane. She had to be dreaming. The world had seemed so hazy and depressing lately, perhaps she'd even killed herself! Maybe she'd only thought she'd seen Peter, and stepped out of the window only to crack her head on a rock 2 stories below. Peter's muscles were tense as if he were flying faster then usual. Tinkerbell struggled to keep up.

The ship had already landed, and she could hear obnoxious laughter as if floated up to them. Suddenly a scream ripped through the sky and she felt Peter twitch. He dropped her into the crow's nest and landed beside her, glancing down at the chaos below. His lips were parted in a smile, as if he were happy to be here to torture the old codfish somemore.

Lauri was still tied below, though she was at the end of the plank. Hook had had his pirates tie her to the plank facing the water. Her arms and legs where still bound, as so once she dropped she would still be helpless. Hook leaned on the plank, grinning maliciously, "Any last words, girl?" His pirates watched the water as bubbles began to rise and the sharks parted to allow their leader through.

"You bet I've some last words for you, you sniveling, whining, yellow-bellied cod---"

A shark rose from below, leaping toward the girl. He was almost 25 feet long, and only missed her by a few centimeters. She yelped and tried to flatten herself against the plank. "Well, child, I think my little friend is ready to make a meal of you! Hear that Peter? I've finally won! No games! I'm killing your new little girlfri—"

Before he could say another word, the shark had leapt again. Lauri screamed, noticing there was no way he'd miss her this time. The shark opened his mouth wide as he leapt. In a blink of an eye, the entire end of the plank was gone, along with the girl. Tara cried out from the crow's nest, covering her eyes. Hook shook with mirth as Peter stared, horrified. He couldn't go after her, for it was obvious she was dead. Tara suddenly hit his back with her fist, "Damn you! Why didn't you help her?"

A splashing sound reached their ears, and a scream soon followed. The shark had snapped the plank with his tongue, but as he pushed the splintering wood out of his mouth, she'd followed the wood, ripping her binds on his teeth. She'd kicked him with her still bound feet to stun him before scrambling to the surface. Now she screamed and thrashed, calling for Peter. "Help! He's still down there!"

Peter leapt toward the water, curtailing Hook's cynical laughter. Swords were thrown at the boy as he raced for the sinking Lauri. Peter dived beneath the water, grabbing Lauri's waist as he resurfaced and shot back into the sky. Quickly he flew to a little rock island not far from the boat and rushed back to get Tara. He took her to land, dropping her gently in the sand before rushing back to get Lauri. Needless to say, he was getting rather tired with all of this rushing about! He grabbed Lauri and landed with her back on shore, together they ran off and disappeared into the woods, Peter leading the way from the air.
