Pirate's POV

The captain awoke slowly and rolled over to look out his window. In one swift motion he rose and was pulling off his clothes to be replaced with a new set. He wore a flowing red jacket and a hat to match that included a feather. Smee came in with a steaming cup with had a copper smell. Hook drank heavily and replaced the empty glass. He grumbled and with a nod he exited the cabin.

There stood all his men with assorted swords and a few pistols. Each one stood tall and proud. Hook singled out a few and pointed to the boat indicating that they would go. Those who went were pleased while the others were ordered to remain on the ship and clean it again. Two were singled out to feed the humans on the ship.

Hook sat on the row boat and it lowered into the water. Once it was dropped fully Smee and Noodles began to row quickly. In twenty minutes they were on the shore of Mermaid Lagoon. A mermaid surfaced to watch Hook. She had blonde hair but it was darkened from being soaked.

"Have you seen Peter recently?" She nodded carefully slipping back. His grin revealed sharp and extending canines. "Was a girl with him?" When the creature nodded he couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Cheryl knows her name. We don't like her. He took her in the woods and flew away." The girl sank under knowing she had spoken too much already.

Hook stepped out with his boots imprinting the sand. He walked ahead before turning to cheek the crew. They all stood beside the boat before he extended his hand allowing them to join his side. In to the woods they walked heading straight to the trap they set. If it had not been sprung they would keep walking and watch the camp. They would sneak in and take the girl.

Smee gasped first at the sight. They had caught a girl but it was not Tiger Lily. Hook chuckled and tapped the girl. She startled awake and eyed him. They were wide and curious until she caught the gleam of his hook in the moonlight. He walked up closer and she moved back the best she could manage making him smirk.

"What do we have here? Is this a damsel in distress?" They boys chuckled at the captain's joke but she made no movement. "Who might you be?"

"I am Wendy, what is your name?" She could have easily guessed when she noticed his fangs.

"I am Captain James Hook, and I am honored to meet you Ms. Wendy." He tipped his hat and bowed. "I can only assume you are with Peter now, but I would love to know if it is true." She gave a nod and he grinned brightly withdrawing his sword. In a careful motion he cut the rope and she dropped to the ground with a loud thud. With a wince she tried to move to look up. His sword was sheathed once more.

"Don't hurt me please I have done nothing to you." He bent down to add the affect his deep voice was going to have on her.

"I wouldn't even dream of it. Are you going to put up a fight or will you walk with us?" Wendy tried standing but her leg crumpled back down. He made a gesture to no one in particular. Smee answered immediately and bent beside him.

"I won't fight, please don't let him kill me." Her arms crossed her face in a weak defense. Hook placed his actual hands on her arms and pulled down to reveal a frightened face.

"Smee, her leg is hurt and she is frightened, what do you suggest?" Hook hadn't originally planned to ask that. He had wanted her bound so she wouldn't fight at all.

"Take her to the ship and mend it. Unless you want her to stay injured so she can't run." Hook nodded and extended a hand to her. He helped her up onto her right leg then swung her into his arms to carry her. Instinct made her grasp his neck but she tried to remain far away. He was gentle knowing that if he frightened her too badly she would not open her mouth.

"What are you going to do with me?" She stammered the sentence as she trembled in fear. All she wanted was Peter but now she was in the arms of his enemy.

"I am going to fix you and give you a place to sleep. In return I want you to share with me a few things of interest." Wendy could only agree. She was at their mercy now but no one protest when she was placed at the head of the boat next to Hook. It would be a lie if she said she didn't have a small crush on him. Her biggest fear wasn't her physical pain but the mental it would bring on her and Peter if she happened to fall for Hook.

Once on the ship she was taken to his cabin. No one else entered except them. He set her on the edge of his bed and he took her leg. With careful eyes he saw where it was broke. Pulling at it, he made it fast and clean so the pain was minimal. Once it was aligned perfectly, he used his hook to slice his wrist holding it up to her mouth. She turned green and he sighed.

"I promise it isn't as gross as you believe it is. Besides you'll heal nicely. If you don't I'll make you walk the whole ship." Wendy placed her lips around the wound and let her tongue pat the red liquid. To astonishment it was sweet and not at all unpleasant. She almost enjoyed it. His hand pulled away and patted her head telling her to sleep. He would be in tomorrow to check on her.
