Chapter 10: The Ghost
Wendy walked along the forests of Neverland, keeping an ear and eye out for Captain Isaac's crew.
She walked towards the shore, she heard a snort, she stopped. She heard cracking sticks and rustling leaves, she wasn't moving, Tinkerbell and Rosebell were in the air.
Aha, boss wants us to do everything for him, get firewood, now! Wendy heard one of the crew member's mimicking the captain.
Here's my chance, to see if I can trick them, fairy dust, she whispered to the fairies as they sprinkled fairy dust over her head.
Wendy thought of Peter, of how she felt when she first came to Neverland, she rose off the ground and clumsily flew over to the crew members she had been hiding from.
The pirates were laughing as they made jokes about the captain, Wendy flew over to them, she spotted a vine in front of the pirates' feet. She thought and moved quickly, she grabbed the vine and pulled it, the pirates fell, tripping over the vine and dropping the sticks they had been holding. She was surprised at how the pirates had not seen her, with all the light in the forest.
Wendy laughed, the pirates looked up at her.
I though' you were dead, The same pirate that threw Peter down the stairs, said.
I am dead, I've come back to help Peter, The pirates shook as Wendy's face became angry.
We'll jus' be goin', The pirate said as they ran toward the boat to take them to the ship.
Wendy laughed, she wondered if Captain Isaac would believe her.
Peter..............
Peter had cried until he thought he couldn't cry anymore, he was hungry, tired and cold.
She never did anything to them, Peter whispered to himself. Even though they're ugly and rude! Peter yelled at the ceiling again.
Shut up boy, no one cares about you, not even that stupid girl, Peter saw an ugly face staring at him through the cracks in the ceiling.
She's not stupid, and she did-does, care about me, Peter couldn't say it he wasn't going to believe she was gone.
Captain, Captain! Peter could hear from a distant.
What do you want? The captain asked as the pirate that had been watching Peter, moved.
Me and Oscar, we saw the Wendy girl, she was a ghost, sir, The pirate told the captain.
Isaac yelled, grabbing the pirates collar.
It's true sir, right Oscar? The other pirate nodded.
Peter listened closely, ghost? Was it really Wendy's ghost or was she alive, was that even possible?
If that girl comes here, claming to be a ghost, grab a sword and start fighting, The captain said, walking away.
Peter's heart was beating extremly fast, he didn't know if Wendy was coming back to save him or leaving, or if she was even alive, all he knew was he wanted to see her.
Wendy...........
Wendy walked to the shore, how was she supposed to call Jeremiac? She stood there, unsure.
She heard someone as they laughed, from her right.
She spun around and saw Jeremiac, She said.
Do you need something? He asked.
Yeah, can you tell some of the- merpeople to act surprised when they see me talking to Captain Isaac, maybe like we did kill her, something like that.
Jeremiac laughed again, Wendy smiled, she asked, laughing as well.
He said shaking his head I'll go tell everyone, good luck. He said before diving under the surface.
I'll need it, Wendy said to herself.
Wendy flew towards the ship, the ship creaked and and swayed with the waved, the ship looked abandoned.
Suddenly one of the doors on the ship opened and the same little boy Wendy had seen before, came out.
I thought you were dead? Oh, I see the captain said you would be coming back saying you were a ghost, The boy laughed. He grabbed a sword, Fight!
That's funny, you think you can kill me again? Wendy now laughed.
The boy froze, Captain, Captain!
The captain slammed open a door, What do you want?! He looked at Wendy and stopped, Hm, thought you were dead, he smiled. Wendy was getting sick of people saying that.
So, what are you supposed to be a ghost or something? Why are you even here? The captain asked.
I've come back to help Peter, Wendy smiled.
The captain just stared at her for a minute, his smile widened, Didn't you say you were mad at him? He laughed.
Wendy's eyes widened, Yes, yes, that's true. But, I felt terrible before I died so I've come back to help him, Wendy smiled. That was close.
Uh huh, come closer, He said Wendy flew closer to the ship, she hovered above the ship, looking at Captain Isaac.
Isaac screamed, once Wendy was close enough to the ship.
Two pirates came out and took Wendy by the arms, and hauled her to the door, which Peter was behind. And as they did to Peter, they threw her down.
Peter......
Peter gave up on the thought Wendy might come back, he stood up and started to think of ways to get out. He heard footsteps, and voices, one sounded familar, he didn't know who though.
He heard more footsteps and voices, still a bit confused. He heard faster footsteps and the door opened. He turned around and saw two pirates with a girl. Wendy?
She was thrown down the stars as Peter was, he tried to catch her, but his shoulder prevented him.
Peter ran over to her she had landed on her arm as he had, he ran to her and kneeled down next to her.
He rolled her onto her back, She slightly opened her eyes. She saw Peter and her eyes shot open, she sat up and hugged him.
Peter, I thought they would have killed you, She said into his, unhurt, shoulder.
I thought you were mad at me? He said, remembering her words.
No, Peter, I made that up. How could I be mad at you?
He shrugged, I don't know. Wait a minute, how did you get free from the merpeople? He asked holding her shoulders and looking at her.
Oh, I met this merman, you probably know him, Jeremiac- Peter cut her off.
Jeremiac! You talked to him?! Peter sounded angry.
Yeah, so? Wendy asked looking at him.
He loves you Wendy, Peter said looking at her, seriously.
No, he barely knows me, She said laughing.
Wendy, I'm serious. Ever since he saw you with me, the first time you came to Neverland. He's loved you ever since, so please stay away from him.
Wendy saw the seriousness in his eyes,
I can't believe, I thought you were gone, He said hugging her again.
Now Wendy remembered why she loved Peter so much, he was so sweet. He also sounded a bit jealous of Jeremiac. Wendy laughed.
He asked looking at her and laughing as well.
Ok? Anyway, how are we going to get out of this? Peter said.
Wendy thought for a minute, I have an idea.......
