All the magic (OUAT Peter Pan)

Chapter 78: An awfully big adventure

They all walked downstairs, and David climbed into his pickup truck. Hook gave a glance at it, unsure. "Fine. Songbird, you take the front, I can ride in the back."

David had other ideas. "Oh no. You're staying right here next to me, pirate. I'm not letting you out of my sight. Hope there should be an extra sword back there you can use."

Hope climbed in the back of his pickup and shook her head as her sword was still on her hip from before. "No need, still got mine. Now let's hurry up, we don't have all day." Hope told them as they got into the truck. Hope watched as they drove down to the docks. She studied every detail of the town. If they got the beans back, or if they didn't, either way, the town would be destroyed, and she would never see it again.

David pulled up to the canning factory, and they saw Greg dumping things into a barrel fire. The guys climbed out of the truck, and Hope jumped out of the back. The earth shook again, shorter but more intense than before. "Times running out." Killina told them, stating the obvious.

"Oh, is that what that means?" David grumbled as they ran after Greg.

The building was full of mist from the water, and there were large rusted containers. "So tell me Hook," David said as they were walking. Killian in front, David in the middle, Hope in the back. "If all this time it's been about revenge for you, why is it all the sudden important to you to that you survive?" Hook glanced back at David as he kept talking. "I know what I'm fighting for, my family. What are you fighting for?"

Killian didn't hesitate to say, "Myself. That is plenty of motivation, I can assure you. Not to mention, without me, Hope is stuck with you, hero types, and that sounds very dull." Hope smiled that she was part of his reason to fight, knowing he had more reason to fight than he said. David just shook his head at his response. Hope knew David didn't believe Hook, thinking all he cared about was his revenge.

Something made a small clanking sound. "Guys, shh." Hope whispered at them. She knew there would hopefully be more time for them to fight later, after there was no chance of them all getting wiped off the map. David pulled out his gun, and Hook drew his sword. They hid behind some containers as David stepped out, pointing his gun at Greg.

"The beans, give them to me." David ordered as Hope and Hook walked out to face him. Greg lowered the cases he was holding and stood up, putting his hand in his jacket. "Do you mean these?" He asked, holding the small glass jar of beans in his hand. Tamara came out of the doorway and fired her gun, almost shooting David.

Hook tackle Greg while David ran after Tamara. Hope helped Killian pry the jar from his hands. For being a nobody, he was surprisingly strong. Killian got Greg to the ground and punched him in the face. The jar finally got out of Greg's hand as it shattered on the ground. All three of them ended up in a dog pile, clawing after the beans to keep them away from each other.

Greg managed to slip away from Hook and Hope and ran after Tamara and David. Killian picked up a bean that was left on the floor. "Got one." They ran after them and saw Greg tackle David to the floor.

Tamara pulled Greg away from David, who was reaching for his gun. "No, come on. We got what we need." Greg told her as they ran.

Hope helped David stand up. "Are you alright?" Hook held David back as he tried to run after them.

"What are you doing? They got the beans!" He asked angrily.

"Not all of them." Killian said after he let go of David. "I snagged one."

"Where are the rest? There were two of you; how did you only get one bean?" He snapped at Hope.

"Who cares? All we need is one." Killian said, placing it in the pouch on his belt.
