Here is another chapter. It's kind of short! Sorry it took so long I just haven't been in the mood to type.
Oh and also I made a mistake on Wendys cousins name. In the last chapter I said it was Margaret. It is really Susan. Sorry for that.
The American Adventure!
Ch. 16. Help Wendy!
A week had past since the horrible incident and Wendy was now in the comforts of her Cousin Susan's home in Manhattan, New York. Wendy wouldn't leave the room that she was given for she was still suffering from the death of her dear friend Adam Williams. Adam and she had become very close during the time Peter was away in Neverland with Marie. He had been so nice and made her feel comfortable through out the whole trip and for that she would never forget him.
Wendy was horrified of what she read in the cities newspaper about the event. It was found that the sickness was caused by an unidentified food poisoning that was put in every little bag, pot, and can of food and drink in the kitchen. Yes many people became sick from it, but only 21 people died. It was found out that that 21 people which included Adam had ordered a second cup of tea for that morning. Those who suffered no illness where the ones who had ate nothing for they were too excited about the arrival too America. They had no suspects or leads to how this had happened without anyone being seen.
Since she wouldn't leave her room Peter and Marie visited as often as they could. Peter especially. Marie told Wendy of all the exciting sights they had seen and all the wonders of New York. Wendy rarely listened. Of course in the beginning she was eager to visit the sights that Marie had mentioned, but now she really didn't care. She just wanted to be alone.
Peter never said a word about all he had seen of New York. He wasn't too impressed of it so far. This place was so noisy and crowded he couldn't understand why Marie was so fascinated by it. Peter would rather go back to his home in Neverland where he could move as freely as he wanted and could sleep in peace and quiet. But no he was to stay. He would stay and protect Wendy and Marie from Hook. Peter knew it was Hook who had poisoned the ships food for he remembered the time when he was almost poisoned by Hook but saved by Tink in the nick of time. Yes he was to stay.
As Marie continued to jabber on about New York Peter just sat their next to the bed Wendy was laying in and watched her chest go up and down as she breathed. Then his eyes rested on the objects around her neck. Yes she was still wearing the kiss he had given her, but the kiss that Adam had given to her was there as well. One of her hands gripped tightly to that heart shaped kiss as if she was planning on never letting it go.
Was that why she still suffered from the loss of Adam? Because she still had that kiss to remind her of him. Well something had to be done Peter thought. He hated the suffering she was going through and he would make it stop. He would.
Marie broke him out of his thoughts.
Marie: Peter! We better go. Wendy has fallen asleep.
Peter looked up at her and nodded.
As Marie made her way towards the door to exit Peter bent down over the sleeping Wendy and whispered something in her ear.
Peter: I'll come for you tonight Wendy! I promise I'll come! It's time to end your suffering.
He kissed her gently on the forehead and walked off to the door where Marie stood waiting and left.
WENDY'S DREAM
It was just like her last dream she had experienced like this.
Wendy was being pulled between worlds. To Neverland by Peter and to Earth by Adam. She was going to cry from all the pain they were causing her. She wanted to be in both places but she couldn't choice.
Suddenly the grip Adam had on her had loosened. In fact he had totally disappeared leaving that side of Wendy free. She was now slowly floating towards Neverland and away from earth. She had finally chosen. She would go to Neverland and live forever with Peter.
She stopped. Someone had grabbed a hold on her from earth. Wendy looked and saw someone else in Adams place. He looked quiet younger then Adam and was shorter. But he had a striking resemblance to Adam that was shocking. Wendy didn't know who he was but he seemed to strongly want her on earth. For he held on to Wendy stronger then Adam had ever before.
END DREAM
Wendy awoke in shock. Who was that stranger in her dream? She never met him so why did she dream of him? Who was he?
A voice coming from her window interrupted her thoughts.
Peter: Wendy! Wendy! I'm here!
Wendy sat up in bed and looked upon the boy who flew into the room from outside the window.
Wendy: Peter? Why are you here?
Peter: I have come to visit you.
Wendy: But Peter you where here not long ago with Marie?
Peter: Yeah, but I wanted to see you alone.
Wendy laid back down and covered her eyes with her arm.
Wendy: Peter that is sweet. But I'm tired!
Peter ignored her.
Peter: Come fly with me.
Wendy looked up in surprise.
Wendy: What? Peter I can't! I said I'm tired.
Peter: Please!
Wendy: I said no. N! O! NO....now good nigh.....
But suddenly Wendy felt her body being raised from her bed and heading towards the window.
Wendy: Peter! Peter! Put me down! I don't want to go!
Peter said nothing. This was the only way to quit Wendy's suffering. So she was going to go with him if she liked it or not.
