Lost Girl

Chapter 27-The Deal

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at camp, a pixie descended gracefully in the center of the boys.

"Hook requests Pan's sole presence on board his ship." Peter immediatly pushed through the crowd of boys without giving them time to part ways for him. The pixie flew away from the raging Peter. "Come at once please." Then the terrified pixie rushed away from the silent camp.

"Felix!" Peter called.

"Yes Pan?" Felix asked rushing up to his side.

Pan brought Felix close and spoke low enough so that only he could hear. "I need to you to take care of the camp and the boys."

Whispering back, "Pan, you're going to be fine. You never fail. You'll get her back."

"Felix, just...just in case."

"I will Pan, but don't talk like that."

"Just promise me Felix."

"I promise." Felix answered.

"Good, then I'm off boys."

"Get her back Pan!" Bucky yelled as Pan was walking away.

"I will." He promised.

Hook led you to the deck of the ship. It had been two days since you'd seen the sky, and the shock of the brightness made you squint your eyes. In the center of the main deck, pushed against one of the masts, there was a wooden chair and some rope.

"What's that for?" You said pointing at the rope.

"I'm sorry, but I feel like having you tied up will help make up Pan's mind to save you.

"Hook, it doesn't seem n-"

"I swear that you'll be able to free yourself from the ropes. It'll only look like your confined, but you'll actually be able to leave at any time." Hook explained.

You sighed, "Alright Hook we'll do it your way."

"And there's one more thing."

"What now?"

"I want you to trust me that I'll follow through with your plan."

"Yes..." You said confused.

"Just know you have my word that your plan is the one I'm going with."

"Alright Hook. I get it." You said assuring him although you still had no idea why he kept repeating himself.

After you had been loosely tied to the seat, Turner took your bag and sat it beside the chair then took his stance behind you. Hook walked over and unwrapped a piece of cloth from his garments and handed it to Will. He then draped the cloth in front of your face and loosely tied it at the back of your head to give the illusion if a gag.

Hook began speaking, "Pan should be here soo-"

"Hook!" Pan interrupted him from a boat bobbing on the waters outside the barrier.

"Speak of the devil," Hook grinned. He then gestured to the pixies, "Please lower the barrier for Pan to come through." They immediately obeyed and Pan was able to row the boat past the glowing field.

"I should tell you Pan, you are powerless while encapsulated within the barrier."

"I figured." Pan tersely replied.
