Neverland

Adventure!

Cecelia wasn't lying when she said Alex would never want to go back on the Jolly Roger. Everything about it made Alex's skin crawl, it was a lot creepier than she had read in the book. The crew were walking around drunk to no end. The floors needed to be mopped up, badly. And the worst part, she couldn't find her favourite character anywhere.

"Hook, this may be a silly question but where's Smee?" Alex asked, Hook let out a faint chuckle.

"Oh he's around here somewhere, go check in the area of valuable things, he's probably breaking them all." He joked, Cecelia rolled her eyes.

"Anything valuable would run and escape this ship." She mumbled, Hook shot her a death glare.

"Can we get what we need and go? This ship seriously gives me the creeps." Alex interrupted their glare fest. Hook guided them to a room, this room was actually not bad looking, it was highly decorated compared to the rest of the ship.

"How come you never showed me this room? This is snazzy!" Cecelia complimented, Hook smiled at her.

"Because this is my bedroom, love. If you really wanted to come here you should have just asked." Hook told her, Alex made a face, Cecelia just smirked at him.

"I'll keep in mind for next time, Captain." Cecelia spoke, way too seductively for Alex's liking.

"Oh no! Okay, guys, no! Can we please just get what we came here for." Alex begged, the two sighed and Hook continued to search around the room.

"You know, if we knew what you were looking for we might be able to help." Cecelia told him, he shook his head and continued looking in the trunk at the bottom of his bed.

"Ah hah! I knew I still had it!" He pulled out a sword, much like all of his other swords, actually exactly like the other swords.

"Another sword? You carry that many that you were able to spare me two and have more than three left over for yourself!" Cecelia pointed out in anger, she really hated walking somewhere for nothing.

"It's not just any sword, it was made by a dark wizard for the king centuries ago, it was passed on to generations and now I have it." Hook explained, Alex gasped in happiness.

"You descend from royalty?" She asked, Hook laughed at this.

"No, of course not! I stole it, haha, royalty." Hook could barely contain his laughter, Alex glared at him, she should have known.

"Well what does the sword do?" Cecelia asked, breaking Hook's laughter.

"It's difficult to kill Pan, if you cut him with an ordinary sword he just heals, same way if you stab him. But with this, he cannot heal himself, if you stab him through the heart he will die." Hook explained, Alex's eyebrows furrowed.

"Wait, so if you've had this the whole time, why are you only attempting to kill him now?" She asked, he shrugged.

"I guess he was just a worthy opponent, I was younger then, I wanted a challenge, now the boy just haunts me." He admitted, Alex felt kind of bad for him. Suddenly there was a loud crash outside the door, the three gasped and looked to the door.

"Has he found us?" Cecelia asked, she was beginning to panic as she was not prepared. Hook put a hand on her lower back to comfort her but slipped it off when he went to the door to inspect. He put his hand on the door handle and quickly opened it, sword at the ready.

"Oh, oh sorry Captain, didn't mean to make so much noise." A small man spoke, he was picking up bits of glass that he had dropped on the ground.

"How many times must I tell you Smee, leave things alone!" Hook shouted at the poor man, Alex's eyes widened in excitement.

"Leave him alone Captain!" Alex defended him, Hook shot her a bad look.

"Don't encourage him." He told her through gritted teeth. This shut her up.

"We really must be going now, bye bye." Cecelia pushed Hook and Alex out the door and past Smee.

"Oh, bye now!" Smee hollered after them, then he continued picking up the glass. The three walked back into the forest, they were cautious as to where they were going and to anyone around them.

"Can I have a sword or something because I'm defenceless here." Alex complained, Hook sighed.

"Do you know how to use one? No point in me giving you one if you can't use it." He told her, Alex shrugged.

"I'm sure I'll catch on." He handed her a sword and she was surprised at it's weight, she always imagined them to be a lot lighter. "thanks."

They continued on for a while longer until they began to feel hungry.

"Food break." Cecelia announced, they both looked at her like she was crazy.

"We have no food." Alex told her, she smirked.

"You don't, I do." She told them, Hook's eyes widened and he grabbed her arm roughly.

"I was starving last night and you didn't give me one bit of food!" He complained, she tipped his nose, like you would do to a child, and she smiled widely.

"It's called using your survival instincts." She told him, he huffed and let go of her. She took out a piece of what looked like bark off of a tree.

"I am not eating bark." Alex told her, she chuckled.

"It looks like bark, but it's not, it's magic, I stole it from one of the Lost boys. It tastes like anything you want it to taste like, for instance chocolate or chicken even. Pretty cool actually." Cecelia explained to them, she handed them both a piece to try. Alex hesitantly put the small piece in her mouth and thought of chocolate. She was not disappointed, the taste immediately changed. Alex and Hook both looked at Cecelia wide eyed.

"I love magic!" Alex said excitedly as Cecelia gave them both a bigger piece. They walked on as they ate, looking for any signs of Peter anywhere

"What are we going to do when we find him? Challenge him to a duel or something?" Alex asked, Hook and Cecelia realised that they never really put much thought into what they would do.

"I was just going to demand he give back what he took from me." Cecelia admitted, she knew Hook hated that idea.

"I just want to kill him." He told them, Alex liked his idea best.

"After Cecelia gets back what belongs to her." Alex added, Hook rolled his eyes and mumbled something that sounded like 'fine'.

The more they walked the more impatient they all grew. Hook was losing his temper and was taking it out on Cecelia who was losing her temper because of this. Alex was also getting angry because of how loud the two were being.

"Shut up! Just shut up, okay! To hunt someone you have to stay silent otherwise they're obviously going to know where we are!" Alex shouted at them, the two looked at each other then at her.

"Well you're the one shouting now." Cecelia told her, Alex glared at her because of her attitude.

"At this rate it would be better if Pan would just show his face." Hook admitted, Cecelia silently agreed.

"And I wouldn't want to disappoint." They all heard a voice speak, they knew who it was but had no idea where it came from. They looked in all directions, Alex and Cecelia were holding on to each other.

"Pan, come out here right now!" Cecelia ordered, she felt Hook grab on to her arm.

"Alright, but only for a minute." Peter was trying to be funny. In a flash of light he appeared before them then he was gone. But not before he sent a sly wink in Alex's direction, one she did not miss.

"Where is he now?" Cecelia asked aloud, then when she turned around she saw that Hook was missing. "He took Hook!" Cecelia told Alex, she was beginning to get very worried again.

"Don't worry Cecelia, we'll find him." Alex promised, Cecelia finally showed for the first time that she actually cared about Hook.

"If Pan lays a finger on him I will kill him!" Cecelia growled and stormed off to the north, Alex followed closely behind praying that Cecelia wouldn't lose her mind.
