A/n: wow it's been over a year! I am SUCH a horrible person, like all the other times there is no excuse. If anyone is still actually reading this I'm gonna try and finish it up in a few chapters. I know how I want it to end but I don't know how I want it to get there…so bare with me here.
So uh, you may have to read the entire story again to remember what's going on (I know I had to) but here's a quick refresh:
Peter groaned softly, Wendy could hardly hear him. She wiped some dirt and blood of his cheek and kissed him softly. She heard Jack gag but chose to ignore him. She looked around for a cloth to clean his cuts with, the only thing she could (that she wanted to use) see was Jack's shirt. She moved Peter slowly, then went over to Jack and started unbuttoning his shirt.
"You know you could ask," Jack said
" ahh yes, but I thought we were past that point in our relationship. Thank you kind sir for so graciously letting me borrow your shirt." Wendy patted his head and went to dip his shirt in the water.
Song of the Chapter: I cant think of a song for the chapter so currently, there is not one
Random Note: Peter is 18/19ish, that's his real age, since he decided to grow up for Wendy he will be staying that age even though he is back in Neverland. Jack is 17ish (about a year has passed by since the story began)
Chapter 16:
Wendy sat with Peter's head on her lap for what seemed like ages, he had bruises arms and had a black eye.
"Peter at least you put up a fight, stupid Hook, you were right, never to trust them. I can't believe I've been used twice by them." Wendy was talking mainly to fill the empty space with some other sound than the eerie sound of dripping water.
"Silly girl," Jack said with a sneer, "he did not fight, he was out cold from the second I captured him. Your Peter Pan is not as strong as you think, merely a cocky boy."
Wendy looked up at Jack, "you did this to him while he was unconscious? You coward, why if I were less of a lady…"
"You'd what, slap me?"
"No," She said quietly, "I would not kill you, but I would leave you with an inch of your life like your father did to Peter awhile ago; I would take every ounce of hope away from you; like you did to Peter, and I would leave you in Neverland, a lone with the beasts of the forest completely defenseless and hope that the beasts are less then kind to you. Now please shut up you stupid brute."
Jack glared at her and started trying to work his dagger free from his boot while Wendy was busy tending to Peter. "Peter darling, please wake up soon." Peter groaned and his eyelids fluttered slightly.
Tink flew in a huff and when she saw Peter she screamed and flew towards him. Wendy grabbed her out of the air, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!" Tink started to explain but Wendy could not understand. "Oh well, nevermind, we need to get him out of here and back to where I can give him his medicine…and we need to get this ugly oaf in a more secure place," she said pointing to Jack, who was starting to work himself free of the ties.
Tink flew away once again to get help transporting Peter back to the tree house. Jack had completely gotten loose of his ties and was sneaking up behind Wendy.
"You know, I was really beginning to like you back at the market."
"It's strange, I thought you were a decent person, back in London, if Peter hadn't come back, who knows what would have happened, and to find out you were using me! You make me so mad Hook, I just can't even put it into words. I don't think I'll ever eat apples again!"
"I wasn't using you my dearest-"
"Don't call me dearest." Wendy snapped.
"Whatever, I didn't know you were involved with him" Jack threw a look at Peter, "I just thought you were a nice girl, a beautiful girl. The fact that you lead me to Peter was a plus. So anyway my point is that it's a shame I'm going to have to do this, such a waste of a lovely young lady…"
Jack stepped out of the shadows, his blue eyes were glowing red. He had blood on his face, not his, but Peter's from when he had been beating him. His torso was wet, partly from being in the damp castle and partly from working on getting the ties off. (a/n: mmm Jack shirtless, that's a nice image, even though he is even and all…oh well back to the story!) Wendy turned around slowly, only to find him towering above her with his dagger in hand. Wendy gasped as Jack grabbed her and held the dagger to her throat.
"Now be a good girl, come back with me to London, your parents are worried, you've been gone for a 3 weeks now. Give me both the swords, if you want to live, come back to London and be my little wife. Let me finish him off Wendy, darling."
"Kill me now please, I would rather die here with Peter than spend my life with you." Wendy winced as he pressed the dagger deeper into her throat, she started taking the swords off her dress's belt, she laid them down next to her one at a time, she noticed Peter's eyelids flutter once again and she moved one a little closer to him.
"Well if that's what you would like, I'm sorry it had to end like this."
Jack leaned into Wendy to kiss her goodbye and he pressed the dagger as far as it would go without actually cutting the skin. Peter jumped up and grabbed his sword.
"Don't get any closer to her, Hook." Peter held the weapon to the back of Jack's neck, Wendy used her chance to grab the other sword.
"You do realize that I have nothing to lose here Pan, you have taken EVERYTHING from me; my father, my home, Wendy is the only thing that I remotely care about in this life anymore, I can take her from you. I could kill her any moment I wanted."
"You wouldn't dare! Fight like a man!"
Jack let go of Wendy and stood up slowly, Peter's sword was still touching his neck.
"Well then, let the fight begin."
And then he lunged.
A/N: YAY a fight! I know it was longish I figured, hey they waited a year, I might as well give them something to read. So Enjoy, and leave a comment or two and maybe I'll update before next January. In fact, I'm actually excited about this fight scene so I'm gonna write it right now. I just figured hey, I should end the chapter before it goes on FOREVER (insert sand lot reference here)
So yea
