Hey people. I'm back. I have had so much trouble getting this chapter
loaded to the story. I was going to add it yesterday, but here where I
live had some really bad thunderstorms and all. It left us with no
electricity for while. Then when it did come back on I found out half this
chapter was deleted. So I rewrote it and here it is. It may be a little
boring because the setting is during the train ride. That is why it's
shorter.
The American Adventure!
Ch. 3 The Train Ride!
Wendy awoke a few hours later when the train circled a curve in the track. She had slept more then she had expected too and was getting a little hungry. She wondered how much longer it would take to get to Brighton. She had no clock with her so she didn't know. She looked around for a conductor to ask but she didn't see any one around at the moment. So Wendy looked to the seats behind her to see if they knew the time.
The passengers sitting behind her consisted of two men. The older of the two looked like a jolly old man. He was large set with white hair and a mustache. The other one looked quite younger, but handsome. He had short brown hair and hazel eyes. He looked like he could be some what of a charmer.
Wendy sat awkwardly in her seat so she could start up a conversation.
Wendy: Excuse me. Sorry for bothering you, but I was just wondering if you knew the time?
The older man gave her a welcomed smile.
Older man: Of course, of course. No trouble with that.
He pulled out his pocket watch and looked at it.
Older man: It is about the hour of 11.
Wow, Wendy thought. She had slept for an hour and a half of the train ride.
Wendy: So that leaves about a half hour before we arrive in Brighton?
The younger man answered her question this time.
Young man: Yes, Miss.
Wendy: Thank you!
She was about to turn back around in her seat but the younger man decided to continue on with the conversation.
Young man: Are you traveling alone Miss?
Wendy: Yes I am, as matter of fact.
Young man: Why would a pretty thing like you be traveling all alone on a dusty train like this?
This made Wendy blush.
Wendy: I have been invited to America to visit my cousin.
The older mans eyes twinkled.
Older man: What a coincidence? We are also on the way to the wonderful country of America.
Wendy: Really! By which ship will you be traveling on?
Older man: The ship with the name of The Flyer. How about you?
Wendy: The same.
The younger man smiles.
Young man: So it looks like we will be traveling together for the rest of the way!
Wendy: Yes, it looks like that but would you mind telling me your names?
Young man: Oh, I'm so sorry! How senseless of me. I'm Adam T. Williams and this is my father, Mr. Christopher Williams of London.
Wendy: It's a pleasure to meet you both. I'm Wendy Darling also from London.
Adam: What a pretty name for such a pretty lady!
Wendy couldn't help but blush again.
MEANWHILE.....ON TOP OF THE TRAIN
Peter Pan sat there with a bored expression on his face. He had been sitting, which felt like forever, just watching the earth as it slowly went by. He once in a while hung over the train and looked through the window to see if Wendy was o.k. She had been sleeping the last time he checked. It was probably time to check on her again. So he slowly scooted himself towards the edge of the top of the train. He leaned down and floated a short distance to the window. All that could be seen was his curly hair hanging down from his forehead and his eyes peeking through the top of the window. Wendy was now awake and looked like she was having a pleasant discussion with to men who sat behind her. He watched them talk with each other for a few minutes, but became bored so he flew back on top of the train and waited again. He hoped this moving thingy would stop soon, so he could show himself to Wendy.
Fifteen minutes had passed and the train began to come to a halt. Peter looked over the edge of the train and saw that people began to come out of its doors. He scanned the crowd for Wendy and saw with the two men she was talking to on the train.
IN THE CROWD
Wendy thanked Adam for helping her off the train. Then her mind raced to the feeling in her empty stomach. She was indeed hungry. Mr. Christopher Williams read her mind.
Mr. Williams: Would you like to join my son and me to lunch Miss. Darling. We have plenty of time before the ship takes off at 4.
Wendy: Oh, that would be lovely, but I don't want to impose.
Adam held out his arm for her as he responded.
Adam: Who's imposing?
She gave him a smile and took his offering arm.
Mr. Williams: Splendid, I know where this fine little restaurant is that is just around the corner. They serve the best......
He continued to talk as they all walked down street together, not knowing of the boy who flew from rooftop to rooftop after them.
End Ch. 3.
Well what did you think? Sorry it was so short. I just couldn't think of much they could do on the train. I will have the next chapter up hopefully within a day. Remember to R&R! PLEASE!
Oh, I almost forgot. There was a question asked about why they couldn't go to Neverland. Well, it's not like they cant or anything. It's just that the Wendy's parents don't want her or the boys to go back, for they are afraid of losing them for sure. Also, I think that Wendy would have gone with Peter to Neverland, but she really, really wants to go see her cousin in America. I hope that answers that question. PLEASE R&R!
