Ch.16 Healed

Hook held onto Peter who had his wrists chained behind his back as they all walked down the woods. All Peter couldn't stop thinking about was Alice getting shot by Rose's gun and her falling off the cliff.

"Which way Pan?" Hook asked when they got to a fork in the trail.

"Go left" Peter sighed as they went to the left.

"You better be telling the truth" Hook said "Or things are gonna get bad".

"I'm telling the truth" Peter mumbled "And things are already bad for me".

Back at the Black castle, Alice still laid on the beach with her hand over her bloody wound and laying motionless. But then a ball of light flew over her, the light was Tinkerbell.

"Oh no" Tink gasped "Alice!"

Some more fairies flew to Alice's body.

"What do we do?" a fairy asked.

But before Tink could answer, smoke began to fill the beach, and a large blue caterpillar wearing a monocle and smoking a hookah appeared floating on a cloud.

"Take her to the White queen" he said "We can try to heal her".

"The White queen?" Tink asked.

"I'll lead you to her" Caterpillar said.

Tink and her fairy friends sprinkled lots of fairy dust on Alice, and she began to rise.

"Now follow me" Caterpillar said as the fairies guided Alice and they followed Caterpillar.

They soon reached a white palace, with the White queen standing on the balcony. She then noticed Caterpillar flying towards her on his cloud with the fairies carrying Alice's body.

"Your majesty" Caterpillar said "We found Alice on the beach with a bullet hole in her stomach".

"Oh dear" the queen gasped when she saw the wound "Bring her in".

The fairies brought Alice in and placed her on a bed.

"We should get the mineral water" Tink suggested.

"Is that how fairies talk?" the White queen "By talking in bells?"

"They're saying that they're going to get some mineral water" Caterpillar said "Mineral water can heal any wound".

"Oh, then that would be helpful" the queen smiled as she gave the fairies a small cup "This should be enough".

Tinkerbell took the cup and the fairies flew away.

Meanwhile, Peter was still leading Hook and Rose to the Ever orb. Since the orb was in the Lost boys campsite, Peter had no choice but to lead the crew in.

"Well" Hook grinned "This must be the Lost boys camp".

But the boys weren't around, so Peter thought that they were exploring.

"Is the Orb here?" Rose asked Peter.

"Yeah" he mumbled.

"Well show us" Hook said.

Peter sighed as he lead them to the underground passage.

"It's in there" he said "But only I know where I put it".

"Well in that case" Hook said as he opened the door "You and me will go in" he then turned to the crew "Be on the lookout for trespassers".

Hook held onto Peter as they went down the stairs and into the secret room.

"So where is it?" Hook asked.

"You have to move the shelf" Peter said looking at the shelf he put in front of the hole.

Hook moved the shelf away and saw the tiny curtain covering the hole, he used his hook to move the curtain and saw the orb in the hole. He took the orb out using his only hand and gazed at it.

"Thank you Pan" he grinned as they went out of the secret room.

Hook showed the crew the orb as Rose gasped as she went to it.

"It's beautiful" she said, she then went to Peter "Thank you Peter" she grinned as she rubbed her cold fingers across his face.

"So now that we have the orb" she said "What are we gonna do with him?" she pointed to Peter "I can take care of him right now" she pulled out the same gun she used to shoot Alice.

Peter's eyes widen as he tried to run, but Rose gripped onto his arm.

"No" Hook said "I've got something that I've been planning to use on him since this happened" he held up his hook.

Peter had no idea what was coming.

Back at the White queen's castle, Tinkerbell and the fairies flew back with the small cup filled with the mineral water.

"Thank you" the queen smiled, she then turned to the doctor who was trying to get the bullet out of Alice's stomach.

The doctor was then able to pull out the bloody bullet.

"Now pour the mineral water on the wound" Caterpillar said.

The queen poured the healing water on Alice's wound, the water sizzled and shined bright like the sun. After a moment the water dissolved, and Alice's wound had magically healed. And Alice started to wake up. The queen bent over Alice and brushed her hand across Alice's face. Alice's eyes then started to open.

"Alice" the queen said.

"Hmm" Alice moaned as she got up, she then noticed the queen "You majesty?"

"Hello Alice" he queen smiled.

"Where am I?" Alice asked.

"My palace. Caterpillar and some fairies found you and they brought you here to get the bullet removed".

Alice saw the bloody bullet on a small table, she then saw that her wound was healed.

"What?" she gasped "How did it-".

"The fairies brought us some magic healing water, it can heal any wound".

Alice saw the fairies along with Tinkerbell flying above her.

"Thank you" she smiled. She then remembered Peter "Where's Peter?"

"Hook and Rose took him" Caterpillar said.

"What?" she gasped "I gotta save him".

She tried to get up but she felt a sharp pain in her stomach where the wound was and she fell back on the bed.

"Even though your wound is healed" Caterpillar said "It'll still hurt".

"Well how long will it hurt?" Alice asked.

"About 24 hours".

"What? But I gotta save Peter".

"Alice dear" the queen said "You can't save him while in pain, you must let the pain heal for 24 hours".

"But what about Peter?" Alice asked "They could kill him".

"I'll check on him" Tink said "And I'll tell you if he's all right".

"What?" Alice asked Tink as Caterpillar translated "Oh, thanks Tink".

Tinkerbell then flew out the window to search for Peter.
