Wendy's POV

"No! No! Let go of me!" I shouted. Two guys had grabbed me after I tried bolting for it. From what Hook told me this isn't where I wanted to be.

"Don't fight it, Wendy, you could survive this place or...not." Hook said bending down at my level. He put his hook underneath my chin, "now remember as long as you don't think happy thoughts or anything that makes you happy then you'll be fine! But if you do whatever's in there is gonna kill you." Hook said, removing his hook from my chin and patting me on the head.

"You don't have to do this Hook! Let me go!" I shouted.

"Shut up!" He turned towards me and his face was so red that it almost looked like a tomato. But his face changed from anger to a smile, "how bout this...I'll make you a deal."

All the pirates started to murmur. But one pirate stood out, "that's not fair! You said..."everyone looked to the pirate to the right that was leaning on a tree.

"Pardon me?" Hook said.

"Sorry Captain didn't mean it like that...just sayin you told us we were takin her here and all that." He said.

Hook looked at him surprisingly calmly. But Hook started to walk towards him and all the pirates stood there frozen and afraid of what was gonna happen to their fellow pirates.

"I know what I said but I can change that because I'm the Captain!" Hook shouted.

"Sorry Captain." The pirate said looking down at his feet.

"Yes, I'm sure you are. But I can't have that otherwise I could have a problem on my hands...again" And that's when Hook shot this man in the chest as he did with Mullins.

Hook turned back at me and walked towards me. I started to squirm again but stopped as the pirate on right started to squeeze my arm tighter.

"So I'll let you go if you answer one question. Sound like a deal?"Hook said holding up his index finger.

I seriously started to consider it. I almost said yes but he never told me what the question was.

"What's the question?" I asked.

He sighed. He'd didn't want me to ask that. He just wanted to hear either yes or no. "Smarter than I gave you credit for."

"You're avoiding the question."

"Tell me where Peters's hideout is and you are free to leave."

I started to laugh hysterically, "you're joking right?" But I could tell he was serious, "Why would I tell you? You've done nothing but hurt me the second I got on your ship."

He looked at the men grasping me and with his hand movements, they let go. I looked at Hook confused. He then stepped closer to me.

"From what I heard you and Peter had an argument before we captured you." Hook said.

"Yeah after you beat Felix," I mumbled.

"Yes sorry bout that but it was either that or kill him...which is good for him." Hook said.

"And how did you know for sure Peter and I had a falling out?" I said, "me and Peter are on great terms right now." I lied.

Hook chuckled, "well from the pirates who were there they overheard you yelling at Felix for not telling you he was a pirate and a bunch of other stuff."

"That's...that's not..." I started to trip on my own words.

"Yeah, that's what I thought. So so we have a deal." Hook asked.
