Heartbroken

DO NOT READ THIS UNLESS YOU READ THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER!!

Wendy's POV

I had changed from pants and a t-shirt to a white dress. I'd already missed my pants and the t-shirt. Those clothes were all I had left of Peter, it's funny but it made me feel a little closer to home and feeling a part of something. Afterward, they'd locked me back down to the brig.

"See ye in an hour." Mullins chuckled.

Mullins walked away and I started to cry. "Peter please don't come. I'd rather die than have Hook get what he wants."

I heard a familiar voice that I hadn't heard in two weeks.

"Wendy?! Boy am I glad to see you!"

It was Cassius. "What are you doing here?!" I shouted

"I was looking for you, I thought you would be back on the beach. But I got attacked by the pirates." He said, "they're guarding that place like a fortress you know."

I sighed, "You shouldn't be here." I said leaning up against the bars. "It's not safe here."

"What do they want with me, Wendy?" Cassius started to cry. I wanted to go over and hug him but I couldn't, he was in the other cell.

"I'm gonna get you out of here. And you're gonna go home. I'll do whatever it takes to get you back to Peter." I said.

"I'm glad to hear that Wendy," Said a cold voice. I hadn't realized someone had been listening.

"Hook? Why is he here? You only need me, not him!" I shouted hitting the bars.

"I need him to ensure you'll do exactly as I say." Hook paused and walked over to Cassius, "He will be back home with Peter I'll even take him with us. And once we're done...he can go back."

"What about Wendy!" Cassius shouted.

"Well, she'll come back of course!"

I stared at him. "Why?"

"I know Peter won't buy it for long..." Hook leaned in closer to my cell and whispered, "so after we met him I'm gonna take you somewhere where he despises and that will either haunt you forever. Or you'll die there."

"No," I mumbled.

He chuckled. "Now let's talk shall we?" He yanked, opened my cell door, and grabbed my arm.

"About what?"

"Why, how to slowly hurt the great Peter Pan."

And with that, I was yanked away from Cassius and into...well who knows what. The only thing I knew was that whatever it was it wasn't good.

Peters POV

I couldn't sleep at all and at the crack of dawn, I jumped out of bed and went to the sound of the drums. But as I got out of Hangman's Tree I saw that all the boys were already gathered there.

"Peter, we're ready when you are," Felix said.

"Yeah, always." Said the twins.

"Then let's go!" I shouted.

We marched away from camp and towards where Hook said to meet. It took forever to get there but, when we got there we all spotted Hook standing next to Wendy.

"Peter it's Wendy!" Cato shouted.

"Wendy," I mumbled.

As the Lost Boys and I landed on the beach I saw Wendy take a few steps forward toward us but Hook grabbed her arm and she took a few steps back. I could tell he was waiting for me to ask to see her and that's exactly what I decided to do.

"Hook, let me talk to Wendy!" I shouted.

I saw him grin at me and all he said was, "okay."

I didn't know what he was doing but, I could tell that the pirates were ready. As she stepped forward towards me I saw burn marks around her wrist.

"Wendy, what are they doing to you?"

She just smiled at me. "Whatever they did I deserved it, Peter."

"What...what are you talking about!" I grabbed her hands and continued, "Wendy no one deserves...whatever they're doing to you! Now let's go."

She yanked her hands away and stepped back. "No Peter, I'm not going back with you. Hook showed me how dangerous you truly are. I now see that the people who get too close end up dead."

I heard the boys murmur. I heard them say 'what's she talking about and 'what's Hook done to her?' I too was asking myself that.

"What's he doing too is you Wendy? What's going on, this isn't you!" I shouted.

"This is me, Peter! If you don't even see that..." I could see tears starting to appear in her eyes.  "Then you don't know me at all. That's why I'm staying with the pirates. And that's when they'll call me one of their own...I'm not just staying on the Jolly Roger I'm becoming a pirate."

My heart felt like it stopped. I felt like I couldn't breathe, he was doing something to have her say all of this. Or was this what she truly wanted?

"Wendy..."

"Peter don't you get it! That kiss we had on the beach means nothing to me. The feelings you think I have for you... they're fake!" I could see the tears now starting to fall down her face.

"Wendy...I don't think you mean that."

She chuckled. "Like I said you don't know me at all!" She shouted.

"Please...Wendy..." I started but she cut me off.

"Peter just....stop okay! Nothing you say or do will make me change my mind!"

I was shocked. These words she was saying felt like a knife was cutting open up my chest.

She leaned in to kiss my cheek. "I don't want to ever see you again Peter...I think you need to grow up."

I jumped back at her words. "I will not grow up! I won't!"

"And that's another reason why I can't stay with you," Wendy said whipping away the tears streaming down her face.

"Oh yeah why haven't you told Hook where we are hiding out at? It doesn't add up Wendy!" I shouted.

"I wouldn't do that! I wouldn't want to hurt the people I care for." Wendy shouted back.

Wendy turned and ran towards Hook he was holding out a handkerchief but, she didn't take it. I saw one of the pirates grab her arm she looked back at me and looked away. And with that, she was gone.

"Now Peter...I shall be off with the newest member of my crew." Hook said and I heard a faint chuckle in his tone.

I didn't do anything...I didn't know what to say, she was gone and I didn't do anything to change her mind.

I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see Felix "Peter...she's being hurt to say those things. Come on, I know you saw how that pirate grabbed her arm. She's saying all of this for a reason, Peter."

I looked at Felix and said, "so why not try and hint at what was truly going on there? Why didn't she fight back as hard as she could? Like she said she wants to be a pirate Felix."

And with that, I stormed back to camp.
