17: The Isaac's story
(Author's Note: Oh my god, got the DVD and I have more than 100 reviews! Thank you sooooo much! Now I'm in a very Peter Panish mood, hah so here's chapter 17, and yes I named him Captain Isaac cause of Jason Isaacs, good call. lol, Enjoy!)

Wendy was on the pirates ship, scared, confused, and worried.

Captain Isaac had pushed Wendy into a room which looked very much like Captain Hook's old room, he closed the door and left her in there.

Wendy stood staring at the door for a few seconds, then blinked and turned around, examining the room. It was all wooden. There was a dark oak table in the middle of the room, on top of it was an ink well, books, paper, and some of Captain Hook's old hooks. There were two heavy looking chairs set next to the table, one holding dark red cushions.

Wendy walked away from the table and walked towards the walls. On the wall there was a painting of a woman, with long blonde curly hair holding a baby boy, a man with a neat mustache, a little girl with black curls, and a boy who looked about Michael's age who stood proudly. Wendy walked over to the painting and as the picture of the family set in she realized that the boy who stood so proudly was Captain Isaac. And the baby must have been Captain Hook. Wendy smiled, she had to admit, Captain Hook was adorable as a baby. She looked at another painting it was of Captain Hook and Captain Isaac, Captain Isaac looked about 13 and Hook looked about 8. There were other paintings that lined the walls but Wendy kept staring at the painting of the family.

As she stared she wondered. What was the story of Captain Isaac's family? What had his life been like? As these questions bubbled in her mind the door swung open, Wendy jumped and Captain Isaac stepped in, some of his hair falling out of the loose tie that held it back. He sneered and closed the door.

Wendy looked at him, curiosity taking over, Can I ask you a question? She asked.

Captain Isaac laughed, Oh sure, Wendy dear, he said in a mock caring voice.

Wendy looked at the painting then at Captain Isaac, What was your family like? Wendy knew she should be figuring out how to save Peter, but this seemed important as well.

Captain Isaac asked, his look of anger turned to shock.

Your family, she made a gesture, to acknowledge the painting. What were they like?

Captain Isaac looked as if he was going to explain something, but instead spat, Why... In God's name do I have to tell you about my family!?

Wendy ignored him, Who was that little girl with the curly hair? She walked over to the painting and pointed to the girl with long black curls.

Captain Isaac seemed defeated, That was my sister, his voice cracked, but he coughed. My sister, Katherine. Katherine Isaac. She died, before her 11th birthday, I was 13, she was 10 and James was 8 or 7. My mother and father had taken us to the beach, Captain Isaac usually wouldn't take time to tell Wendy a story, but this seemed like something he wanted to get out so Wendy listened closely. Me and James were playing pirates, we had such a passion for pretending we were pirates...

FLASHBACK
James and Jason Isaac ran out of a house that sat atop a cliff, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Wait for me! They heard a little girl, their sister, call from behind them.

Oh great, James muttered.

They stopped and looked at her, I want to play too, she announced.

You can't be a pirate, you're a girl, Jason informed her.

Yes, I can. Just watch me, she skipped away and picked up two sticks and handed one to Jason. She commanded.

He chuckled with his younger brother, and soon burst into a fit of uncontrollable laughing.

I will grow up to be a Pirate and I'll have my own boat named after Father, she stuck out her chin.

What are you going to name it the Jolly Roger? James managed to say through giggles.

Yes, I am, she agreed.

Okay Katherine you can play with us but, stop being foolish, you are not going to be a pirate, Jason's laughing subsided.

Yes, I am! She stomped her foot against the soft dirt.

Please stop, my stomach hurts from laughing so much as it is, James muttered.

Katherine brought her stick up and pointed it at James' throat, Little brother, I will be a pirate before you will ever be a man! James grabbed the stick out of Jason's hand, and then things began to get terrible.

Never a pirate! James yelled.

Yes, I will be. I'll be the cruelest pirate in the world, she shot back.

James laughed, the sticks hit against each other for several minutes as Jason just watched. He didn't say anything until he saw Katherine getting to close to the edge of the cliff, Guys! Stop fighting, or at least come over here, it's too close to the edge! He shouted.

Neither heard, but kept fighting. Jason could understand Katherine not stopping because she couldn't see how fearfully close to the ledge she was. But James could see, sadly he was to engulfed in the fight that he didn't realize... Until it was too late.

They had gone too far, Katherine had backed up right up to the edge, at which point she fell. James was in such a state of shock he couldn't move to help her, Jason ran to catch her but was too late.

James stood there not blinking, not moving, he had killed his own sister and he 2 years younger than her. He was a murderer and he knew at that point he was going to be foul and evil forever.
END FLASHBACK
James was never the same, none of us were, Captain Isaac said, his eyes glassy. And James and I decided to become Pirates to honor her, and that's how the Jolly Roger was named after our father, he nodded to the painting.

Wendy just stood there, staring at Captain Isaac, I'm so sorry, she managed to whisper.

It's been something I learned to deal with, his face suddenly transformed from sadness to a sinister grin.
Now, you must want to know how you can save your precious Peter, he laughed.

Wendy stared at him in total disbelief, he had just relived a horrible moment in his life and now he wanted to go right on being evil. Then it hit her like a wave, his foulness wasn't just in honor of his sister it was a comfort blanket, he didn't have to show his sorrow he'd cover it up.

Wendy answered solemnly, Yes, I wanted to know that. It has something to do with the poison doesn't it?

Yes it does, clever girl. I assume you want to know how to get his memory back.

Wendy nodded.

Well, here's a little information for you. Peter has no memory, agreed? Wendy nodded. So he doesn't know who he is or anything. But the thing is there is two in Peter's body at the moment.

Wendy looked at the man in front of her who was grinning broadly at her confusion. What do you mean? She asked.

Well you see dear... This could take a while have a seat, he pulled out the cushioned chair for her to sit in, as Wendy sat down he began to explain. There are two in Peter's body as I said, the Peter you know and a completely new Peter who knows nothing of everything.

I still don't understand, Wendy, who had been looking down, looked up.

He laughed, The Peter you know can see everything that's going on, and only if he's strong enough to break through he can, otherwise the confused Peter is in control. Understand now?

Wendy nodded slightly, I still don't understand how I can get Peter's memory back.

Oh Wendy, Captain Isaac stroked her hair, sarcasm coating his voice. You have heard the story of Sleeping Beauty haven't you?

She pulled her head out of his reach, She moved her head again as he put his hand down.

Well this has the same scenario. Imagine Peter in the Sleeping Beauty position, and you are as the prince would be, Wendy squinted, waiting for Captain Isaac to continue. To get Peter's memory back, you must kiss him.

Wendy's eyes widened, Oh! I understand! She smiled, stood up and began to walk towards the door.

Oh my dear girl, where do you think you're going? He asked, standing in front of the door.

I'm going to save Peter.

Why would I tell you how to save him, and then let you go? I'm not stupid, you know, He laughed.

Oh no, Wendy whispered.

he nodded.

I'm very sorry about your sister, and I'm sorry that Hook... I mean James died as well, Captain Isaac looked at her as if grateful. I'm also sorry for what I'm about to do.

Isaac looked at her confused, Wendy soon stepped, heel on, his foot. He quickly grabbed his foot and began to hop up and down on the other foot. She quickly opened the door and ran across the deck and soon heard Captain Isaac's voice, Don't let that girl get away!

The boy that Wendy had seen with the Captain, what seemed like ages ago, stood between her and the edge of the ship, I am really not in the mood to be stopped.

The boy smiled, Too bad, isn't it?

Yeah for you, Wendy laughed, and did something she knew her mother wouldn't approve of, and punched the boy across the jaw.

He held his jaw and moved aside, as Wendy jumped off the ship and into the water, Captain Isaac came out of his room and began bellowing foul words, that some of the pirates had themselves never heard.

Wendy gathered all her strength and swam all the way to the shore, at which time she heard a familiar voice, Jeremiac's.

Well, well, well, if it isn't Wendy. Missed me didn't you? He asked floating on his back, revealing his fin.

Oh I missed you very much, and I'm going to do something I've wanted to do for awhile, Wendy walked into the water and up to Jeremiac, and he, being the conceited merman he was thought she was going to kiss him, closed his eyes. Wendy smiled and raised her hand and hit the top of his head. You little jerk, you made me believe Peter was rude and selfish for that time, as short as it was. I will never forgive you for that, Wendy began to walk away as Jeremiac rubbed his head.

But you love me! He called.

Wendy turned around and laughed, Sorry, I don't like fish, and she began to walk into the forest.

As she walked through the forest the excitement began to build up in her heart, the second she saw Peter she would kiss him and his memory would return, but how long it would take to find him she didn't know.

Author's Note: Ok, A LOT going on in this chapter. It's in every direction, very confusing. Hope you understood everything, let me know. So know everybody knows what's going on with the memory and how he can see everything and not control it? Phew, I'm tired. Review and I'll love you! LoL. Pottersweetie
