The first day of the plan commenced. Hook sailed the Jolly Roger to the point of land closest to Peter's hideout. Hook walked up to Jake who was chained to the side of the boat. His normally handsome face was weary and underfed. It was all part of Hook's plan to appeal to Peter's sympathetic side.

"Alright Jake," Hook said in a serious tone, "we are going to let you out onto the beach. You are to go to-"

"Yea, yea I know. I go to Peter's hideout and once we get all friendly," here he stopped and changed from his sarcastic tone to a depressed one, "I kill him." He said flatly.

"Exactly! You catch on quickly boy. But you do know the consequence if you don't succeed, right?"

Jake nodded solemnly. Satisfied, Hook motioned for his crew to release him. Jake followed the crew to a rope ladder hanging off the side of the boat. A dinghy was set and ready for the load of pirates to board. Suddenly, Jake thought of Izzy and dashed toward the hold. He had to see her one more time before the unknown happened. What if he never saw her again?

The other pirates started after him, but Captain Hook stopped them.

"Let him have some time alone with her. It might be the last time they ever see each other."
