The return of Wendy Darling and Peter Pan (book two)

Outside The Dark Hollow

Wendy's POV

I'd passed out from exhaustion for about two hours from all the blood that had come from my 'punishment' as Hook put it. I'd dreamt about Peter and the Lost Boys coming and rescuing me. But the dream ended when I heard footsteps coming down to the cell I'd been kept in.

"Well better get up lass today you gonna finally get to see Peter."

I looked up to see who said that but, was upset about who was there.

"Mullins...I'd love to see Peter but not at the cost of his life." I mumbled. I sat up a little bit the pain in my back was killing me. They let me clean up my back and had given me a fresh pair of clothes afterward.

"I thought you'd be excited with this news," Mullins said as he unlocked my cell.

Of course, I wanted to see Peter. Of course, I wanted off this bloody ship. And all I wanted was to be in his arms at last. But I knew it wouldn't be that easy.

"Like I said, not if it's the cost of his life. So I think I'll stay here right here."

Mullins chuckled and he bent over as he unlocked the chains that were around my ankles. I would've kicked him I would've tried everything in my power to get out of there. But I tried to stand up but I just fell right back down to the floor. I felt more helpless than I'd ever felt in my entire life, and I'd lost the people I cared for most in my life.

"You're pathetic, and all Hook can think about is Peter! Peter this, Peter that! I just want to get the h..." Mullins stopped when he heard a cough behind him.

I looked to see Hook behind him. And I could see some terror in Mullin's eyes. Mullins stood up and turned around to face Hook coming closer till he was standing right by Mullin's side.

"No don't let me stop you! Continue Mullins...I'd like to hear what you were about to say though. Especially in front of the lady." Hook said playing with his Hook.

"Cap'n I didn't mean it like that I swear! I was just saying things I didn't understand...please I'm sorry, how can I make it up to you? I'll do anything!" Mullins pleaded.

"Anything?" Hook asked.

Mullins shook his head, "yes Captain."

And Hook smiled and before Mullins could get anything else out Hook grabbed the gun that was at his side and shot him in the chest. His blood sprayed onto me. As Mullins fell to the floor his eyes stared at me...unblinking and Hook just chuckled.

"Guess I need someone to replace him now. What a good waste of a bullet...should've used my hook instead." Hook sighed and looked down at me laughing at the shock on my face, "well time to go!" Before I could blink Hook grabbed me by the arm and yanked me up to my feet.

"Your sick," I said as I spit on his face.

Hook let go of my arm and whipped the spit off of his face. He whipped the spit onto his pants and then grabbed me by my head and grabbed my hair and made me look down at Mullins. I tried to look away but, it only made his tight grow stronger on my hair.

It was a moment before Hook made me look at him again and said, "Just be glad that you are still useful to me otherwise..."

I cut Hook off and, "what? You would've done that to me?" I asked. "Go right ahead! Peter will kill you. What's that saying Hook?" I made him get angry more and more boiled then said, "an eye for an eye. You kill me, Peter will make sure you pay for what you did to me."

"Trust me Wendy you think I don't know what is coming for me? Oh trust me I do but, I'm taking everything Peter loves and lives for first. Who do you think I should go for next? Maybe I'll go for one of the younger boys or Felix next."Hook said. I looked at him with my blood boiling inside of me.
