A/N: Hey thanks all for reviewing, onto more story it gets better. I think so at least.

I could hear them argue for awhile and crawled into a tree to try to get away from it all and ended up falling asleep. Well, at least she couldn't hear them anymore. I woke up just as the sun was leaving the sky, and found my tree surrounded by pirates. "So nice of you to join us." I heard Hook coo. I wanted to go back to sleep, maybe I was, and this was a dream? No such luck. "Now you either come down here, or we'll go up there and get you."

"Aye, wait a minute." I told them and crawled instantly out of the tree. My feet had hardly touched the ground when two beefy men carried me off. We came out to a ship where I was loaded and Hook asked me the same question he asked Wendy.

"Would you rather be a pirate or walk the plank?" He asked me smiling devilishly with an evil twinkle in his eye as we sailed away from the island.

I decided not to follow in Wendy's footsteps. "Aw hell, a pirate? It can't be that bad."

Hook grinned and ordered me to be untied. "What shall the first task of this friend of Pan's be?" He asked evily holding his face in his hand and tapping his temple. "Ah, these decks look as though they could go for a good cleaning." He waited for my reaction. Apparently he did not know very many hard working girls.

"Got a bucket with water and some soap? And a brush while you're at it?" I asked stepping forward eager to see the look on his face.

Hook was taken back, that was clear to see, but he recovered quickly and grinned, sending a man to get the stuff I needed and ordered the crowd around us to get back to work. I started to swab the decks as Hook had ordered, thinking to myself that this was agood way to start a little R and R. Those thoughts came and went when it took me more than the entire day to finish because the members of the crew were so intent on dirtying the wet parts I had already cleaned.

Snitch and Peter did not argue or fight as Tinkerbell watched with both glee and disbelief. Instead they stomped off to opposite ends of the island to sulk, coming back only for dinner. Except, there was one person missing. "Wow," Snitch told Peter, "There's one person who can hold a grudge longer than we can."

Peter didn't laugh, though he and Snitch were now on speaking terms, but Flynn, who standing nearby heard the argument, laughed. "If she's not back by breakfast tomorrow then we'll start a search. She may just be hanging around like she did last night." Peter said.

Flynn nodded, he wasn't really sure as to what was happening, but he knew the boys must have gotten her riled up, because if she didn't like them they would have come home beat up, so she had probably just walked off to let them cool down, or to herself to do the same. It depended, but Flynn knew Dan like a book, and he knew that Dan liked these guys, so they had probably gotten in an argument, and she had told them to shut it, and then left. He knew she would be home by morning, she normally was. She always made sure to check on him, or to give him the signal so they could beat it out of there. Flynn knew that here things had changed, because the only way to leave was to get Peter's permission or learn how to fly. That wasn't a problem for Flynn though, because he didn't want to leave anytime soon.

After dinner the boys played tag until it got too dark to see. Flynn was incredibly worn out by the day's events and went immediately to sleep, but that was only after he made sure to check the limbs above his head, and fell asleep after realizing Dan wasn't there, but if she was hiding she wouldn't hide in the same place twice.

I was exhausted from a hard day's work, the deck business was long and excruciating to clean, and it took me forever. I finished in time for dinner though, and in spite of the fact that I wasn't hungry, I allowed myself to be led to the galley.

Seating myself in a corner I stopped to rest, just as Smee scurried in. Spotting me, he rushed over, grabbed me by the arm, and led me away much to the amusement of the men watching. I soon found myself in the Captain's quarters, and they were not a bad set of rooms if I can say that much. Captain Hook himself was seated before a large buffet of food with a chair closest to me. "Would you like to sit down?" He asked after taking a sip of wine and gesturing to the chair at the opposite end on the grandeur table. I knew I really didn't have much of a choice because Smee was pushing me towards the seat anyway. I decided why not, there would be a whole table between us after all, and if Hook tried any funny stuff I would have to get away. Taking the seat offered to me, I piled my plate high with potatoes, chicken, and beef, and ate like a king, or rather, a queen. Eventually working my way toward the middle of the table where the desserts were.

Hook called me over to refill his glass of wine, and I reluctantly accepted. "You know," he said as I carefully poured the drink trying to put as much distance as us as possible, while still being able to pour. "For a kid, Peter has quite the taste in women."

I tried to brush off the fact that this thirty, possibly forty year old man might be hitting on me.

"Though I will admit, that last one-Wendy-was more stuck up than you, she put up more of a fight."

I tried not to laugh, "Yeah," I agreed honestly, "But I didn't feel like swimming, or getting rescued."

"Not yet?"

"Nah, I wanted to see the parts of Neverland they don' tell us in th' stories."

"But you'll need Pan to bring you home." He said matter-of-factly.

"Eventually." I said said with a grin. It was apparent this man knew nothing about the likes of girls like me.

"I was hoping you would stay my quarters until your time of departure." Hook said sincerely.

I tried my best not to shriek Pervert! "Thanks," I said trying my best to restrain myself. "But no, I like to sleep where I can see that stars."

"Are you sure?"

"Definitely. Thanks fer dinner an' all, but I am dead tired. I'm gonna go ta bed."

"Where will you sleep?" Hook asked curiously.

"I'll find somewhere I reassured him and flew out of the room, knocking aside Smee who was waiting by the door.

Located at the base of the middle mast I found the perfect spot to sleep, it was an incredibly large coil of rope, and it was very comfortable. I laid myeslf down and looked up at the stars and spotted the crow's nest higher up. That would be the better place for me, bringing me closer to the stars and therefore closer to Flynn who wactched them every night. Lucky for me there was no one in the crow's nest, so I slumped against the side and fell fast asleep.

I woke up woth sun shing right in my eyes. Sitting up I spotted a fog ahead, and through it seemed to be land. Just then a man sounded a long drawn out, "Fog! Straight ahead!"

It was followed by another man's "Land-ho!" I could hear busy scrambling on deck and peered cautiously over the side of the nest.
