Chapter 22: A New Hope and Prophecy Revealed

Previously on CJANLP…

Captain Jake and his crew read about a legendary prophecy. They had a bad dream about the legion. Peter sent a warning that the legion of pirate villains was back. The legion is planning an attack on the mainland. The crew immediately warned everyone about the attack. Everyone is preparing for the attack. They found out that they are the ones who will save all of Neverland. They got big upgrades due to the Forever Tree fusing with them. They now have different identities, looks, personalities, abilities, and tools.

Captain Jake and his crew then showed everyone the prophecy. Everyone started to think about who the "mysterious team" is. Everyone also decided to enlist Captain Colossus for help. The crew started their new powers practice. Captain Colossus found out the truth about the "mysterious team". He decided to send a letter to the crew to confirm his thoughts. When the crew saw the letter, they decided that they would explain everything to Captain Colossus. After explaining everything, they decided to keep in contact. The crew then saw a vision of what happened in the past, which confirmed who their biological parents were. Meanwhile, the legion is starting their plan by performing a spell that manipulates the other captains' memories. Although the spell worked, the crew quickly reversed the spell.

The legion then corrupted Captain Hook into working for them. They did it by casting a spell that "freezes the heart" of the person under the spell. This makes them not feel any emotion. Captain Jake and his crew told the others about the legion's plan. The original crew of Captain Hook told the others about their captain's behavior after the spell. This made everyone extremely worried. Everyone is starting to think that the prophecy won't happen due to difficulty understanding it. Captain Jake and his crew quickly convinced everyone to trust the prophecy. Several days before the big battle, everyone arrived to discuss the plan for battle. On the day of the full moon, the battle officially begins. Everyone tried to defeat the legion in the penultimate battle. But they failed to due to Captain Hook turning all the ships to stone using the Doom Stone.

And now…

Everyone regrouped at a small beach. They are feeling hopeless, fearful, and disappointed that they didn't succeed in one round. Everyone is now discussing what to do for the next step.

"What do we do now? The legion has us cornered. Should we surrender? We don't know what to do now! We all feel hopeless and scared." Captain Flynn said.

"They might be strong. But that doesn't mean that we're giving in. Because we will never give up! Even if it's the last thing we do! We all have our weaknesses. But that doesn't mean we can't overcome our fears. Because weaknesses are what makes us even more powerful than before! We failed the first time, which doesn't mean we are going to quit. Because we'll stand back up again! Light will always triumph over darkness! As long as we are here, no evil shall come past us!" Jake and his crew said.

Suddenly, the crew's tools begin to glow and shimmer. Then, something extremely incredible happened, another ship appeared. It's an even bigger ship than the Mighty Colossus. Everyone watches in shock and amazement.

"What in Neverland had just happened? Did history just repeat itself? But how is this possible? Jake and his crew have done it again. Is this a coincidence that this happened?" Beatrice Le Beak said with a really surprised look.

"We had no idea that this would have happened again. But we know that the villains have to be defeated at all costs. We also know that the prophecy has to come true. We didn't expect this to happen at all." Izzy said.

"What's the origin of this ship? I have a feeling that it might have something to do with the prophecy. But we'll have to wait and see." Cubby said.

Everyone boarded the ship. But when Jake and his crew boarded, something weird started to happen. They started to see strange things in their minds. They were standing still on the ship for some odd reason. Everyone immediately noticed what happened, and started to worry.

"Hello? Neverland to Jake and his crew. What's happening? Jake and his crew are not responding. What do you guys think is going on?" Captain Flynn told everyone else.

"Perhaps the ship is just too much for them to handle? I have a strange feeling about this. Let's just wait for them to recover from the shock." Peter said.

All of a sudden, the ship's bell rang really loudly. Everyone was a little bit surprised. They were confused about what happened.

"Wait, did that bell just ring by itself? I have a feeling that this ship is no ordinary ship. Something about it seems familiar." Peter said deeply in thought.

Suddenly, Jake and his crew gets covered up by a golden dome. Everyone is shocked and confused. But they soon realize that a big event is happening right before their own eyes.

"What's going on? First the ship, and now this? This Is definitely not a coincidence now! I think that they're about to become part of something much much bigger!" Captain Frost said.

The dome suddenly emits a huge blast of light. Everyone turns their heads away. When the light died down, four people came into view. Jake and his crew are now in their LPM. When the others turned their heads back around, they were stunned and shocked by what they saw.

"What in the Seven Seas just happened? You guys look completely different! This is insane and ridiculously crazy! You guys better explain this right away!" Peter exclaimed.

"Well, the truth is that the prophecy that we showed you guys can explain everything. It's literally made for me and my crewmates. When the prophecy says five people, that means it includes our ship." Jake said.

Everyone is shocked. They never thought it would be Jake and his crew saving everyone. Everyone quickly started to rethink the prophecy.

"So wait. This means that the ship we're standing on right now is really Bucky? That explains the ringing we heard! I knew that something was off about this ship!" Peter exclaimed.

Jake and his crew nodded. They immediately started to get ready for the second round. They also explain what happened over the past couple of weeks (with the exception of the relationship with the legendary pirates and ships).

"Wow! So everything was hidden in plain sight this entire time? How did you guys manage to do it? It must be a dire situation for the Tree to do that." Peter said.

"I know right. It's been a crazy couple of weeks. Trust me, we'll win this fight against the legion. Even if it's the last thing we'll do!" Jake said.

Everyone got their stations ready. The ship is now fully ready, and they sailed off to battle to battle the legion. The ultimate battle is about to begin…
