CHAPTER 6
Sink or Swim
Disclaimer: I am feeling better. Yep I am recovering from a cold but unfortunately I have gotten my story and real life friend Rachel sick. In this chapter Tiger Lilly speaks and I'm not even going to pretend that I know any native American language past Pocahantas so Tiger Lilly is going to speak English. Don't like it, Don't read it! Oh my God I didn't mean to make you angry please don't leave I have this great fear of dieing alone! Please don't leave me! You readers complete me. Now that I got my comical rambling out of the way, enjoy chapter 6!
"Hey Rachel! How ya doing? Glad you were able to join us. I hope we weren't interfering with your date with Hook short. If you want, you can go back in there and finish. Don't worry. It's not like we're going anywhere any time soon!" Sarah managed to look at her watch and say, "Wow! Eleven seconds of pure sarcasm! Can she beat the world record?"
Vicki glared at Sarah. "Oh that was really funny. If it were any funnier, I'd bust a gut!" Looked at her watch again and said. "Alright that gets added to your preceding time and it is sixteen second. Oooooh Sorry the world record for inappropriate sarcasm is twenty. Would you like to go again?"
"Would you all shut trap?" a pirate yelled. "Shouldn't they all be scared?" another pirate asked. "I don't know but, this is the first time I have ever seen anything like it." Vicki finally yelled, "Okay would you please stop talking about us like we're not even here." A short stumpy pirate with a wooden leg limped over to Vicki and said, "In about five minutes it will be true!"
"How the hell was I supposed to know that you were out here tied up?" Rachel finally asked. Vicki just smacked her lips and looked the other way. "Where is Peter?" Sarah asked worried.
Rachel pointed to Hooks room and said, "They're in there battling it out." Sarah eyes widened and said, "Who, Hook and Peter?"
"No, Hook and Mickey Mouse." Rachel said sardonically. "You know everything doesn't have to be a joke! There are just some times when you have to be serious!" Sarah yelled.
"Alright, Alright!" Rachel said. "Look why don't we just kill these guys and get it over with?" All of the pirates laughed accept for one. "Okay would you please stop talking about us like we're not even here?" Rachel then pulled out her sword and said in a low voice, "In about five seconds it will be true." Before any of the pirates had any time to respond, in three quick slashed she stabbed three of the pirates, who were the closest to her.
"You know you could warn me when you gut people like that!" Vicki yelled.
"Sorry!" Rachel said in between jabs and blocks.
Rachel did a great job fighting off the pirates. She was finally able to make her way to where Vicki, Tiger Lilly and Sarah were and freed them. Vicki and Sarah got a sword from one of the dead pirates. "You won't need this." Sarah said jokingly, to one of the pirates.
Then, it was an all out war. Sarah was impressed by Rachel's sword fighting abilities. Soon Rachel, Vicki and Sarah had the pirates on the run. They began jumping off the ship. They were jumping off their own ship. "Damn, I'm good!" Vicki yelled.
"You know you could have helped at any time!" Sarah said to Tiger Lilly who, throughout the entire fight, remained in her same spot.
There was a long awkward silence when suddenly Hook was thrown from the room landing flat on his face. "Oh my God! James are you alright!" Rachel ran towards him and was about to help him up, when Peter flew out of the room and pointed his sword at Rachel's neck. "Peter what the hell are you doing!" Sarah yelled.
"Traitor!" Peter yelled.
Without warning James knocked the sword form Peter and, grabbed him by the neck and raised his hook to his face. "NO!" Sarah yelled at the top of her lungs. "Rachel do something!" Sarah yelled.
Rachel paused momentarily and said to Vicki, "keep then busy!" She then ran into Hooks room.
"What the hell does she want me to do?" Vicki yelled. Vicki then ran up to Hook, grabbed his hook and ran around the ship screaming "Hook aint got no hook. Hook aint got no hook!" Hook immediately started chasing after her, and Peter was about to pick up his sword and kill Hook when Vicki ran around and grabbed Peters sword.
"Give that back!" Peter yelled.
The sight was quite humorous. Peter and Hook, sworn enemies, running side by side, chasing Vicki. Sarah couldn't help but laugh hysterically. Rachel returned, but didn't have any time to laugh she ran up to Hook and Peter, with a bottle in each hand and broke it over both of their heads, rendering them unconscious.
"Why did you do that, man? I was having fun!" Vicki said with a disappointed groan.
"How in the hell was that fun? And, I said distract them not have then try to kill you." Rachel yelled.
Sarah was still on the floor laughing. "You have to admit, watching Hook and Peter chasing Vicki with a sword in one hand and a Hook in the other is a little funny."
Rachel then smirked and asked, "Alright what are we going to do with the both of them?"
"I don't know but we can't just leave then here. When they wake up they're going to just try and kill each other again." Sarah said.
"You've got a point." Rachel said. She then had a brilliant idea. "Vicki get me some rope!" Vicki glared at Rachel and said "Get your own damn rope. I'm not your maid. Why don't you get Lils over here to get it, seeing as she didn't do anything! She just sat there while we were hording off the pirates!"
"Who the hell is Lils?" Sara asked.
"That's her name." Vicki said.
"My name is not Lils" Tiger Lilly said.
"Oh my God! She speaks. Look honey, I don't care what you think your name is but when you decided to not help me with those pirates after we came here for the sole purpose of saving you, you gave me the God damn consent to call you Lils!"
"My name is not Lils! It is Tiger Lilly, and I am a princess and deserve to be treated like one" She said with an enraged voice
"I Don't care if you related to Johnny Depp himself, I'm gonna call you whatever the hell I want to call you!" Vicki yelled. She then began to murmur very "colorful" words under her breath. Which I'd rather not go into detail with.
Rachel then got the rope and a net. Tied Hook and Peter up (Separately) and then said. "Alright, I'm gonna need all your help!" Vick spread the net out and Rachel rolled Hook and Peter onto the net. Sarah tied the net up and Tiger Lilly did…nothing.
Vicki made sure that Tiger Lilly was able to hear what she said "Spoiled bitch."
"What did you say?' Tiger Lilly asked.
"I said spoiled bitch because that is what you are! Look I'm going to tell you, and I'm only going to tell you this once. Get your lazy ass up and help us fly then two off this boat!" Vicki had a mad look in her eye that Rachel and Sarah had never seen before. It did the trick.
"1,2,3 pull!" Rachel yelled. Vicki, Sarah, Tiger Lilly and Rachel all pulled with all their might and soared through the air with Hook and Peter still unconscious in the net.
"Uh, Rachel?" Sarah asked
"What?" Rachel said straining to hold her end of the net
"What if they wake up and we're still in the air?" Sarah asked
"I don't know and I don't wanna know!" She said.
"well where are we going?" Vicki asked.
"I guess we're gonna go to Peter's hide-"
"WRONG! WE"RE NOT GOING THERE!" Sarah yelled
"Why?" Rachel asked puzzled.
"We are taking Captain James Hook to Peter Pan, his sworn enemy's, to Peters SECRET hideout made for the sole purpose of keeping Hook out of it? You want to take him there?"
"No." Rachel said embarrassed. "I don't hear you making any suggestions! So until you have some input on where we should put them, don't put my suggestions down!"
Sarah then had a stroke of genius. " know where to take them!"
Vicki was exhausted and only had enough strength to yell, "WHERE FOR GODS SAKE WHERE?"
"It's not that far." Sarah said. "Just a bit further." Sarah was speaking of the place she hid when she was hiding from the shrieking/crowing Peter.
Then they finally arrived they let Peter and Hook down gently and let out a sigh of relief that their journey was over. "In here?" Vicki asked Sarah out of breath. "Yeah that's it" Sarah nodded. "Alright all we have to do is drag then in there and figure out what to do from there."
No one said anything. They just groaned and grabbed the net and bragged then in the cave.
Althought Hook and Peter were fairly heavy, they were lucky to have been dragging then on a downward slope.
"Hey I got an idea. Why don't we just ride then to the bottom like a sleigh?" Vicki asked joyfully.
"How about NO!" Sarah and Rachel said in unison.
"Why?" Vicki asked.
"Would you care to elaborate Rachel?" Sarah asked in between pulls.
"Gladly!" Rachel began "Because, In case you haven't realized, these are PEOPLE and not TOBOGGANS. Second, we have no idea what the hell is down there so its best that we go nice and steady instead go quick and deadly!"
"Where on are we going to put them? They're starting to get very heavy!" Tiger Lilly Asked.
"Let's just gently ease on in and cautiously feel around?' Sarah recommended.
"Or we could just use this." Vicki said while pulling out a flashlight. "Where the hell did you get that? No, when the hell did you get that?" Rachel asked with her eyes widened in total disbelief.
"Waite a minute you mean to tell me that all this time we were feeing around in the pitch black dark, when you had that Goddamn thing in your pocket this entire time?" Rachel asked heatedly while letting go of Hooks net.
"I was waiting for the….opportune moment." Vicki said in her best and world famous Jack Sparrow impersonation.
"This is no time for a Jack impersonation!" Sarah yelled
"Who is Jack?" Tiger Lilly asked.
"None of your damn business!" Vicki and Rachel yelled.
"I don't even know when I'm here I hate this movie!" Vicki said letting got of Peters not and walking closer the Vicki.
"Then, why the hell did you come here?" Rachel asked ferociously.
"Look all that matters is that we have light and.. and.. has this net seemed to have gotten a lot lighter.?" Sarah asked. They looked down in horror to see that the net they were carrying Hook in was empty. They had been so busy arguing that they didn't even bother to keep an eye on the net.
Rachel turned to see that Peters net was empty as well and all that laid in the net was the ropes they tied him in (same with Hooks).
"Where the hell did they go!" Rachel yelled. "Damn it Vicki! This is entirely your fault! If you hadn't distracted me I would have-" SMACK! Vicki laid one right across Rachel's face. "I'm getting sick and tired of getting--" SMACK! Vicki hit Rachel again. Rachel took a deep breath in and said in a whisper, "Do it again! I dare you." Vicki had a terrified look on her face and backed away from Rachel.
"That's right you better back away!" Rachel said happily thinking that she had an impact on Vicki, but something was wrong. Rachel saw that Tiger Lilly and Sarah also had a terrified look on their faces. Rachel then said while backing up "Man I knew that I was intimidating but I didn't know that I was that…that…" Rachel felt something. Something terrifying. Breath on the nape of her neck and by the way Vicki and Sarah were looking at her she could have bet big buck that it wasn't Peter.
"He's right behind me isn't he?" Rachel said with a blank expression on her face.
"Uh yeah." Sarah said with a very shaky voice.
"Well… what should I do?" Rachel asked
"Don't ask me! But I do know one thing, you're talking about hHook like he not even there and I think that's pissing him the hell off!" Vicki said.
"No!" Hook began in a low grumbling voice, "I am 'pissed' off because I just got the ba-jesus knocked out of me and I wake up to see myself in a cave, with all of you and—yes, I guess you could say I am 'pissed'!"
Without warning, Hook grabbed Rachel by the neck and put his razor sharp hook to her throat. Sarah and Vicki took a step towards Rachel and Hook but stopped when Hook said, "Take one step closer, I'll swear you'll rue your actions!" Hook snapped.
"I'm starting to think that you don't like me." Rachel joked but with a scared look on her face.
"Oh no you've got that all wrong." Hook said with his lips pressed against Rachel's ear. "I like you a lot. That why I don't want to share you with anyone else" With that being said, Hook left with Rachel close at hand.
Vicki, Sarah and Tiger Lilly starred in shock and fear. All they could do is stand there and watch while Rachel was dragged away.
"Where in sweet fuck is Peter?" Sarah "asked".
"I don't know but when I get out of here I'm gonna kick his fairy flying ass!" Vicki screamed.
Sarah whole outlook on Peter had changed. At first she saw him ask this brave, heroic, fearless, eye-catching boy who would stop at nothing to save the lives of his friends. Now she thought he was a self centered, uncaring, eye-catching boy who would stop at noting to save his own life and say screw his 'friends'. Sarah couldn't help but cry.
"Don't worry. Well find a way out" Tiger Lilly said while walking up to Sarah and rubbing her back to try and clam her down. Vicki was taken aback by the way Tiger Lilly was acting. It was almost as if she actually…cared about their wellbeing.
"when we find Rachel and we find PETER, in going to fucking kill him! He left us here! He just…..left." Sarah turned around and stormed out the cave. Vicki and Tiger Lilly shrugged and followed her.
"how are we going to get her back?" Tiger Lilly asked Vicki. Vicki starred at her and shrugged. "How the hell am I suppose to know? So far, I've just been following Rachel and Sarah, and now that Rachel gone it all up to…" Vicki pointed to Sarah who was walking about twenty feet ahead of them.
Sarah then suddenly stopped with a blank yet somewhat tired look on her face. "I don't know what the hell to do." Sarah said in a somewhat monotone voice. "I have no idea of what the hell I'm going to do. Rachel's kidnapped, Peters a pussy, I don't even know what the hell you're doing here," Sara pointed to Vicki. "and I just don't like your ass!" Pointing to Tiger Lilly.
"I think what we all need to do is stop and think about what we should do next." Vicki said while walking towards Sarah about to comfort her, but was stopped by Sarah's stare.
"Don't fucking try to calm me down! I'm mad! I want to vent so… let me fucking vent and shut the fuck up!"
Vicki's eye lit up with rage. "Oh no the fuck you didn't! I'm trying to lend you a few words of comfort and this is the fucking way you treat me well….fuck you…fuck you hard!" Vicki stormed in the other direction with (for some strange reason) Tiger Lilly following. Sarah was, again, left all by herself.
Sarah paused for a moment not knowing what to do. She looked around the woods again, deciding which direction to go again. "Lets see ennie meenie monnie fuck this shit!" She then stormed off into the seemingly never ending woods.
