Chapter 7: Who's Saving Who?
Wendy walked around the bottom of the ship, disgusted.
She looked at it, there were spare ropes, boxes, crates, and rats. Wendy could smell dead fish, and rotten cheese, she held her nose. Her eyes started to water. She couldn't take it down there, she couldn't breathe, she needed fresh air.
It was dark, and she could barely see in front of her. Wendy found a, partly, clean, barrel, and sat on it. She didn't hold her nose anymore, even though the stench grew worse. Her eyes still watered, and she couldn't breathe. But after hours there, she became used to it. Which made her worry, how long would she be there?
The walls were wet as well as the floor, they had dirt and mold scattered in spots on the floor. Wendy hated this place and thought that maybe if she had acted like Captain Isaac was her role model or something he would've been nicer. Whatever she could've done to change her staying there, it was too late.
With Peter and Rosebell.........
As soon as Rosebell could, she flew to the tree house. She didn't have Wendy to open the door for her, so she found the first window she could. She flew into it, as fast as she could she made the medicine, which wasn't easy at all. She didn't have Wendy to mix the ingredients, or to cut some of the fruits, it took the fairy awhile but she made the medicine.
She flew over to Peter, leaving the medicine on the table. She flew next to his sleeping form. She tried to call him, but he was out cold. She tugged at his ear, several times, until he opened his eyes slowly.
He asked looking for Wendy.
The fairy flew in front of Peter's panicked face.
Where's Wendy? He asked looking around the tree house then at Rosebell.
The fairy told Peter all about how she and Wendy ran into the pirates and how they took her. Peter, though very weak got up, the fairy told him to drink the medicine. He made his way to the table and drank the medicine. After several seconds, he collapsed into a chair. He sat there, with his head on the table. The fairy once again tugged at his ear. He slowly got up.
Peter was still weak, but got up,Where did they take her? He asked the fairy.
She told him how she spotted them heading towards a small boat.
They're taking her aboard the ship! How long has she been gone? He asked even more panicked now.
She reminded him she couldn't tell time, but she remembered it was when the sun was barely up. It was pitch black outside now, so you can guess how long it had been.
They could have stabbed her, they could have made her walk the plank, they could've poisoned her, I have to go save her, Peter said walking towards the door.
He called Tinkerbell and Rosebell and they followed him towards the ship.
Back with Wendy.........
Wendy sat there, hugging her knees, she wanted to leave, she wanted be back in the tree house, she wanted to be with Peter. She didn't know how he was, if he was still unconscious with fever. She started to cry, she didn't know what was going to happen, she was scared.
Suddenly Wendy heard thump, and a familiar laugh. She knew that laugh, it was Peter, no he couldn't be here, how?
Wendy listened to the sound of many foot steps, and the clanging of swords, Peter laughing, Captain Isaac cursing and laughing once in awhile. Wendy just stared at the ceiling trying to see through the cracks what was going on.
Suddenly the door she came in through opened slowly, there was no one there. Wendy called, Who's there? Rosebell appeared with an annoyed, Tinkerbell.
They motioned for her to come out, Is Peter okay? She asked walking up to them, Rosebell nodded.
Wendy walked up the stairs, into the fresh air. She saw the amazing dark blue sky she had seen the night Peter came and told her he might never seen her again. She smiled, because she had seen him, she had helped save him.
She heard Peter yell.
She spun around to see Peter, sword in hand looking at her. Captain Isaac came up from behind Peter, ready to swing his sword into Peter's neck.
Peter look out! Wendy called as he quickly ducked.
Not, you again, Captain Isaac said looking at Wendy.
She smirked, Didn't think you'd see me again, did you? She asked. He walked over to her, sword in hand. Wendy stood there, too scared to move, and swordless. Peter stood in front of her, holding his sword out.
Wendy looked to her right, she just noticed Captain Hook's old swords hanging up, as a display.
Wendy quickly grabbed one, Didn't think you'd see me in action did you? She asked her smirk growing wider.
Captain Isaac threw his head back and laughed, You think a silly little girl like you, can defeat a captain as me? He asked between laughing.
Wendy looked at him, First of all I'm not a silly little girl, she said stepping towards him, bringing her sword down by his right shoulder, he stopped laughing, blocking her move.
Second of all yes, she said moving the sword near his left shoulder, he blocked her move again. Peter stood there, staring, not fully taking in what he was seeing.
After several minutes of Peter watching Captain Isaac and Wendy's swords clanging and the shining silver flashing before him, they stopped. Captain Isaac looked worried, he didn't know what to do. Suddenly a smile carved in his face. He looked at Peter. He walked over to Peter, took his arm, and bent it behind his back, just as Wendy saw in her dream, the visions played back of her nightmare, just as it happened right in front of her.
Peter dropped his sword, and unable to retrieve it, was helpless. Wendy watched with horror as Captain Isaac drew a dagger from his belt, he placed the dagger inches from Peter's chin. Wendy started breathing heavily. She couldn't let Peter die.
So you think killing him, will weaken me? Wendy said, trying to keep her voice steady.
Well, I know, you love him, he loves you. Yes, I think you'd be weakened, He said forming a fake frown on his face.
You don't know how wrong you are, She said lying harder then ever. I don't love Peter anymore, I was outside going away from him, otherwise you wouldn't have caught me. Peter looked at Wendy, his eyes glassy. She couldn't tell him she was lying, she couldn't use a reassuring face, what could she do? She stood there lying.
You're lying! Captain Isaac shouted.
Oh am I? She asked tilting her head.
Robert, Vincent, take this boy, He paused and looked at Wendy, but talked to the men who had arrived at his side. Take him under the deck, until he dies, no food no water of course. He said smirking at Wendy.
The two men took Peter, he kicked and struggled to get free it was no use, he couldn't even fly, all he thought about was what Wendy had said.
Now for you, He walked over to Wendy and took her by the back of the neck.
No, she didn't do anything to you! Peter yelled from the doorway, both men holding one arm.
Oh, you have no idea boy! She's insulted my brother and me, she's caused me this much trouble, and it'll be fun to watch her die. He said planting that disgusting smirk on his face, once again.
He kept a tight hold on Wendy's neck that caused her to keep her shoulders up and her head back, he had a tight hold on a few strands of her hair that was pulling at her scalp.
Leave her alone! Peter yelled, pulling free but getting held back again.
Oh you would like that wouldn't you? He asked. Walking over to the plank.
Peter yelled again. Isaac pushed her out to the end of the plank.
Sorry, Cap'ain but don' ya think it be wise to tie her up? Suggested one of the pirates, smiling, which revealed his gold tooth.
See Vincent, most times I'd do that, but today I don't want to watch her drown, I want to watch her get swallowed by the sharks, the mermaids could attack her, or the best the crocodile, Captain Isaac said looking at Vincent.
Oh, you are very smar' Cap'ain, Vincent said smiling more.
Thank you, Vincent. Now shall we watch her die? He asked the pirates as they cheered.
Peter yelled louder.
Shut up boy! Captain Isaac yelled.
Peter's eyes glazed over as he watched the scene in complete misery.
Wendy stood at the end of the plank, crying, I'm sorry, Peter. She said, turning around, a tear escaping her eye.
Captain Isaac walked forward on the plan, Turn around, Wendy, He said with a fake, caring, voice.
Wendy gave up, she couldn't do anything now, the mermaids gathered at the bottom of the boat, with spears.
When you're done killing her feed her to the sharks, or the crocodile, He said calling down to the mermaids.
Wendy heard Captain Isaac walking closer, then she heard Peter yelling her name, she felt a hand on her back, and she felt the sensation when you're falling, and indeed she did fall.
