Wrong Girl

Chapter 3

Luna thought her plan through…the plan was to act seasick. "Oh, Captain, I don't feel so good," she said pretending she was about to blow chunks.

Hook looked at her. She was about to throw up. "Throw up over the side of the ship," said Hook as he cut through her roped easily with his Hook.

Luna ran to the side of the ship and actually did vomit. Peter, Hook, and the rest of the pirates were grossed out. After Luna wiped her mouth, she looked at them. "You can stand the sight of blood, but not vomit?" she asked.

A light went off inside Luna's head. "Oh, I think I'm going to vomit again," she said. Hook and the pirates backed up. Peter on the other hand got loose and grabbed Luna, taking off into the sky and headed towards shore.

"You're a great actress," said Peter to Luna as they landed on shore. "Thanks," she said. Her feet touched ground..solid ground.

Luna heard a bang from a distance. She gasped. Peter yelled "look out!" He jumped on top of her to make way for the cannon ball that was shot at them.

"They're trying to kill us!" screamed Luna while spitting sand out of her mouth. "Welcome to Neverland," said Peter. Then he heard another bang. "Run!" he said.

Luna was already way ahead of him. She ran deep into the Neverland Forest. Going this way and that, she came to a huge tree. It had vines all the way around it.

"This looks like the one Wendy told me about. The hideout of Peter Pan. The Lost Boys I bet are here too," she said as she walked closer to it.

"Looks like you found my home," said Peter who landed right behind her. Luna squealed while she jumped in the air. "oh, Peter. It's you," she sighed as she panted.

Peter landed on the ground next to Luna. "What's your name?" he asked her right to her face. Luna felt a blush creep up her face. Damn, he's close to me, she thought to herself.

"Luna is my name. And yours is Peter Pan right?" she asked. Peter smiled. "The one and only," he said. This kid has too much pride, thought Luna.

Then she felt her hand in his. She looked down and there was her hand resting peacefully in his like a sleeping child in its crib all safe, and that was the way that Luna felt right now.

Peter led Luna into the tree, careful not to scare her. Then Luna felt herself fall down a slide. Luna landed in the middle of the inside of the tree.

Once inside she got a look at her surroundings. Everything was a mess. Her eyes landed on some weapons on the corner. "Blades," she whispered. Luna had some previous experiences with blades and it was no picnic.

Her eyes moved off her fear and onto 6 boys who bowed politely; hats off. They have some class, she thought. "Lost Boys!" called Peter. They all looked up at Peter. "This is Luna," he said pointing to Luna who by now was shaking with excitement. The Lost Boys all walked over to Luna and began to introduce themselves.

"Hello Miss," said one of the Lost Boys. "I am Slightly," he said. The next one did the same thing introducing themselves. "I am Nibs," he said. "We're the twins," said the two boys in unison. "I'm Curly," said another. "I'm Chubby," said a larger boy than the rest.

Then they all bowed begging Luna "Please be our new mother," they all said in unison. "Aaawww," went Luna. No one could refuse the eyes that the Lost Boys were giving her at that moment.

"You happen to be in luck. I will be in Neverland for awhile it looks like," said Luna looking up at Peter who was floating near the ceiling. "And I do have a TON of stories I want some opinions on," she said smiling. "So yes I will be your temporary mother," she said.

The Lost Boys were so thrilled that they jumped on her pushing her over with hugs and neverending sayings of "thank you."

Luna was smiling herself. "It looks like I'm going to have my hands full for awhile," she said as she tried to return all the hugs.
