Chapter 4

He woke his vision swimming before him. The back of his head was throbbing from were one of the men had hit him. As the pain in his head comed down he looked around him.

The room was small and the white walls were bare. The only way to escape was through a door straight ahead of him, "Its only about 10 feet away…not that far..i could reach it" he thought to himself sarcastically. He tried to stretch and realized that he couldn't. He looked down and saw he was tied down to a chair his wrists behind him and his ankles to the front legs. He cursed under his breathe, he wasn't getting away any time soon.

.oO0Oo.

She woke and opened her eyes the world spinning in front of her. She tried to reach down to put he head in her hand but couldn't. As her head cleared, she assed her situation.

Her wrists were tied together above her head by a rope that was tied high over her head to a beam along the ceiling. Her ankles were tied together and there was a cloth tied over her mouth. She looked down and her vision swam before her again and she shut her eyes against it. She waited a moment before looking around her again. It looked like she was in a ware house. On one side sat a control room with the blinds closed at her height. The place was enormous. From the looks of the bare docks and the huge door to her right it looked like she was in a loading bay, for those huge cargo ships to pull part way into the building itself to unload. She took a deep breath and looked down. She was hanging over the dark water, dead center between the docks. She shivered and shut her eyes again thinking to herself, 'Way to go Wendy. First full night here and you got yourself kidnapped'

.oO0Oo.

He watched her from the control room with a triumphant grin on his face his fingers stroking his goatee. Refusing to acknowledge the sound of the door opening and feet shuffling forward. He held his temper as his men tried his patience with nervous hushed whispers, attempting to decide who would break him the bad news no doubt.

"Captain Hook Sir! The Lost Brats followed us here! What do we do?!?!?! There not going to leave the others here without a fight!!!....Umm…Sir?" the man finished nervously as man continued to look out at the girl through the space in the vines. Fearing Hook's tempter his other men staying out of Hook's swords reach.

He grinned wider and laugh to himself, "I know the brats followed you, I wanted them to find us you dolts!" he yelled at the end, "Now get out!" he yelled and laughed at his men's well founded fear as they practically fled from the room. Only one man stayed behind. He was short and stout with the least tattoos out of all his men. Yet, he was Hook's most important man and the only one who does not flee when he gets enraged.

"What's the plan Captain, you usually punish those who let Pan's boys follow him." Smee asked from his position at the control panel.

"Do you see her out there Smee?" he said as he went back to watching her, "She's the one Im trying to claim from the house that stands at the center of the middle ground. By the rule of the Codes that means if Peter wants that territory then he needs her to do it. Besides…she's a pretty little thing isn't she…she's going to grow up nice..." he said eyeing her again. "Peter will hear of her and he will come for her…especially after what had happened to Lily… he will never forgive himself for that and if I know my enemy as I think I do he will not let this one go without a fight and a fight…I intend to give him!" his anger flaring at the memories of all his past failures. "I will kill Peter Pan!!" he said slamming his fist into the control panel.

.oO0Oo.

He looked up as a loud thump sounded on the other side of the door along with another muffled grunt. The door then opened and quickly closed and the figure came closer.

"Don't you look comfortable Slightly. I'll have to try that sometime." Peter said with his usual crooked grin. He stood before him with his fists on his hips looking over Slightly with amusement. He chuckled as Slightly pulled a face as he walked around him

"Peter just cut my hands free than leave me a knife you have to find her first." Slightly's voice urgent.

"…Slightly who is 'she'?" he stiffened then continued working with the ropes. Peter asked after he freed his hands going around to meet Slightly's eyes.

"She is the girl who lives in House that Hook has chosen to take. Hook captured her too. You have to find her." he said as he began working on his own bonds. "Peter, you have to save her before Hook makes her like Tiger Lil--" he looked up and saw that Peter was already gone the door left open.

.oO0Oo.

"Welcome to my humble abandoned cargo bay my dear girl" Hook said as he walked out onto the dock towards where she hung.

She looked down and started daggers at the man. Hook was actually handsome with sharp features and a muscular body. He his black hair was cropped off and his goatee was well pointed. His tattoos spread all along his bare arms down onto his hand. His name sake looking menacingly sharp as he leisurely made his way towards the edge of the dock twirling his mustache.

He smirked and laughed loudly when he looked up and saw her eyes.

.oO0Oo.

Peter heard Hooks laugh and turned another corner and a huge room opened up before him. He stood on the higher level looking down on the scene. He saw Hooks right hand man, Smee, sitting in the control box on the other side of the large room. He followed the man's eyes and saw Hook…and the girl Slightly had told him about handing from a rope high above the open water.
