Peter Pan, the return

Chapter 9 (flashback only)

*Sorry if you find this annoying but it's another chapter only focused on Tinkerbell's past*

Previously: James proposed to Tinkerbell but she panicked and flew away to Neverland. James grabbed her ankle and she bought James in Neverland. Anaidí̱s and him instantly became good friends, James proposed to teach the young fairy how to sword fight.

(Tinkerbell POV)

Since James arrived in Neverland, the island seemed to revive, they were new adventure for everyone. Like if James presence provoked something in the soul of Neverland.
Plus, Anaidí̱s really loved to sword fight with James and I had to admit that he was getting really good.
James also asked me if I could find him a ship because he was more a sailor than a land man. He was very handsome on his boat and he named it 'Jolly Roger'.

Even if Anaidí̱s was really careful, sometimes he injured James, but most of the time it was minor injuries like cuts.
The queen haven't done anything but her word keeps hunting me. 'Neverland won't let a fairy and a human be together.' What does it means?

~three months later~

Anaidí̱s has now the size of a human young boy, he lived in a house located in the branch of a dead tree not far from Pixie Hollow because he was too big for the house we had built for him.

"Careful Anaidí̱s, you're too slow, if I was a real enemy you'll probably be dead by now," said James while disarming Anaidí̱s.

"How long did you practice on Earth?" Anaidí̱s asked.

"Around two or three years why?"

"I can't be as good as you in only three months you know, it will take time for me to be able to sword fight against you and maybe win."

James nodded, understanding.
"Okay Anaidí̱s, I perfectly understand that you need practice," he looked at me and smiled playfully, "then take this!" He added, attacking Anaidí̱s.

"Not fair!" Screamed Anaidí̱s. He was certainly trying to look serious but he was laughing so it didn't really work.

~ two years later ~

Anaidí̱s was now really good at sword fighting, almost as good as James. James noticed this too and each time he loses the duel, I could see a little glimpse of jealousy and anger in his eyes. It was strange because it was the first time I saw him like that.
But now that Anaidí̱s won most of the duels against James, I could see him changing, like if he grown to be consumed by rage and jealousy. I tried to forget about it but it keeps haunting me, what if he hurts Anaidí̱s because of his jealousy?

A loud scream pushed me out of my thoughts, I turned around to see James holding his wrist. The worst thing was that I saw no hand, only blood.

"You blasted fairy! You cut off my hand!" James screamed angrily.

"I'm... I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to-" stammered Anaidí̱s.

"Don't you dare try to apologize! Give me back my hand and I may forgive you after!"

Anaidí̱s quickly saw the bloody hand not far from the canons. He was about to reach it when he accidentally kicked it and the hand fell into the ocean. Both James and I ran at the place where Anaidí̱s was, trying to reach the hand.
I quickly spotted it and was about to plunge into the icy water when a giant crocodile pass near the boat and ate it.
"No!" James screamed with a voice even louder this time.

He tried to shoot the beast but his watch accidentally fell in the ocean too. As it did with the hand, the crocodile eats the watch, I could now hear it ticking in the crocodile's belly.
We all stared at it as he swims away.
