A/N - Ok sorry it took me awhile.
Sickness of the heart
Chapter 2 - Confusion
That night, Peter flew back to his underground home in Neverland without anyone even knowing he had left.
Peter looked around him. The light around him was an odd shade of violent red, dark and foggy. He was Hovering over a large ship that was sailing foreboding black flags, torn up and battered as if they were shown no mercy. The famous Jolly Roger. Below him, people were fighting, and in the crowd of people, stood a lovely little girl. She had lively blue eyes, full of adventure and desire. Her beautiful brown locks bounced softly as she gracefully swung her sword to defend herself against a horrid pirate.
"She was leaving you Pan!" Peter looked up to see the most feared Pirate in all of Neverland, Captain James Hook. "she would rather grow up than stay with you!"
"NO!" Peter yelled and covered his ears. Suddenly the scene changed. Peter was standing in front of Wendy's window. The window was open, so Peter stepped inside as he had done so before. A woman entered the Nursery, Her curly locks bouncing softly just as the lovely girl who fought so bravely amongst pirates. Her eyes were still bright and vivid, although some of the light was gone with age. She was a woman..
"Wendy!" Peter stood right in front of her, but she didn't even blink. "Wendy! Its me Peter pan!"
Then a man entered the room and threw his arms around Wendy. He dipped her low and kissed her deeply.
"WENDY!" Peter sat up in bed to find all of the lost boys staring at him.
"You talk really loud in your sleep." Nibs laughed
"I thought you didn't know a 'Wendy'" Slightly leaned further over Peter. Peter turned to face the wall.
"What's wrong?" The twins asked. Peter still remained silent.
"Is it mother?" Nibs said
"Its nothing! Go back to bed!" Peter said and closed his eyes tight. Peter Pan was a stubborn boy. When he decided to end a subject, it was truly over. The boys decided to leave Peter to be stubborn, as they all were as boys trapped forever in youth.
Slightly was still concerned about Peter. He knew something was wrong and he was determined to figure it out. The next night, the boys had no dinner. They hadn't had a real dinner for days now, and they were sick of pretending. They all missed the lovely meals that Wendy used to prepare for them. Nibs poked at his plate and sighed, Tootles stomach growled and, real food or not, Peter didn't even pretend to eat it.
"I'm hungry!" the twins said together.
"Me too! Remember the Berry pie mother made for us that one time!" Tootles said.
"Oh yes, those were delicious!" Nibs said
"When mother comes back, I hope she makes us another one!" Slightly said.
"SHE'S NOT COMING BACK!" Peter stood up and yelled. The boys had a moment of stunned silence, and then Slightly spoke up.
"But she misses us."
"No she forgot all about you!"
"How do you know!" Slightly yelled at Peter
"She locked her window!" The boys looked at each other shocked and then they all turned back to Peter.
"Why would she do that?" Slightly asked.
"I don't know, but last night, while you were sleeping, I went to her house. Her window was locked and she closed the curtains. How do you like your loving mother now? I told you, people who want to grow up are no good!" Peter said and sat back down.
"Peter! You must try again, I know mother didn't forget us!" Nibs said.
"NO!"
"But peter -"
"NO!" The boys decided it would be best not to bother him for fear of being banished.
Once peter was sure all the boys were really asleep, He once again escaped into the night and arrived at the Darling house. This time the curtains were open. Peter smiled to himself and approached the window. He tugged at it to find that it was still stubbornly locked.
"Wendy!" Peter knocked at the window. Suddenly the door to the nursery opened. In stepped a boy with dark brown hair and glasses. His eyes were bloodshot and his cheeks were tear stained. "JOHN! Open the window!" Peter yelled. The boy looked at the window shocked.
"Peter Pan!" Johns mouth hung open. Peter nodded, John ran to unlatch the window, stumbling over his own two feet in the process.
"Where's Wendy? She didn't grow up did she?" John wanted to laugh but he bit his lip in an attempt not to.
"Grow up? No! She's only 13! But..." John turned away from Peter as his eyes filled up with tears. "She's in the hospital..." Peter looked at him very confused.
"What's a ... Hosiple?" Peter asked
"Its a place that you go when your sick."
"WENDY'S SICK?" we must go to the hospikl!" Peter yelled.
"Its Hos-pi-tal, and I can't go, visiting hours are over." John said "but, I can give you the directions."
John told Peter the quickest way he can think to get to the hospital, Peter flew as quickly as he could. The thought of Wendy, Sick and alone in the ... Hopsickle ... He needed to see her.
