Ok, so this one is what happened to Wynne in the last chapter, but it is going to be all in Peter's POV.

Chapter 8

(PETER'S POV)

"Hunter, please for the love of all that is good in this world, will you stop trying to climb the tree with Cole. Wynne will kill both of us." I said rubbing my temples. I let out a sigh and walked over to a guilty looking Hunter. I have no idea how Wynne puts up with these children for so long. I love them, but seriously they are insane. I let out a little laugh as Hunter handed me Cole and mumbled something i couldn't quite hear.

"Peter? Will Cole ever get big enough to play with us?" Colby said as he and Zane climbed down from the tree and walked over to me and Hunter.

"I think so, little dude. We cannot be sure we have never had anyone as little as Cole. We just have to wait and see." I said glancing down at Cole. "Wanna see if he will play tag with you guy?" I asked. Cole had seemed to be feeling better. Of course he seemed a little cranky, but I assume that it's because Wynne isn't hear at the moment.

"I am going to go find mama." Sam said laughing as Jacob tried to tag him. I nodded to him and told him to be careful. I watched as the boys ran around the little "front yard" that was set up. Cole was laughing and running as fast as his chubby two year old legs could carry him. The boys would tag him or let Cole tag them every once in a while. That sight just made my heart fill with so much joy.

This is my family, and nothing is going to change that. Cole stumbled over to me and raised his arms up to me. I laughed and picked him up. Cole snuggled into my chest and I gave him a kiss on the top of his head.

"Boys, I am going to lay Cole down for a nap a I will be right back." I said as I turned back to the house. I walked into the house and shut the door softly behind me. I laid Cole down in his crib and watched as he yawned and snuggled up to his rabbit. Cole quickly fell asleep and I kissed him one last time and headed back outside.

The boys were still chasing each other around and laughing together. The boys quickly grew tired of tag and played other games like ring around the rosies, red rover, and other little kid games. The boys all stop and a small sniffling and sobbing could be heard. I turned around and faced the sound. The other boy's laughs and screams of joy were so loud, I didn't Sam come back or that he was crying. I rushed to Sam's side and held him close to me.

"Sam, what i wrong? Did you fall and hurt yourself?" I asked. Sam just shook his head and cried louder. "Did Wynne say something to make you sad?" I knew it was a long shot, but he did go and try to find her. I watch in shock as Sam shook his head and started to cry harder. "What did she say?" I barely choked out.

"She told me to come back to you, and then Hook grabbed her." Sam said in between sobs. I held Sam closer to me.

"Wait.... Sam did you say Hook was there?" I asked, suddenly everything in my body was screaming for me to go and protect Wynne. Sam nodded his small head. I set Sam back down on the ground and called Hunter over. "I have to go get Wynne, Hunter you are in charge, let Cole sleep, just make sure that he is doing ok. I will be back as soon as I can." I said. I patted Hunter on the shoulder and took off running through the forest.

While running as fast as I could go, I could only think of the worst case scenarios.

Hook kidnapped Wynne and is torchering her to get revenge on me.

Hook is using Wynne as a bargaining chip

Hook is abusing Wynne

Hook has Wynne. MY Wynne. and something terrible is going to happen.

I let out what sounded like a mixed between a sob and a growl. If anything happens to Wynne, I will not hesitate to take a life. Wynne and the boys are my world. With that thought I ran faster than I thought possible.

After a few minutes I reached the docking area. I watched as Hook ushered Wynne up and into the boat.

"WYNNE! Wendy!" I called out desperately trying to get her attention as I ran across the shoreline. I watched as Wynne turned to look over her shoulder at me. She looked down at her hands, and I could tell she was crying. She looked back up at me and then behind me. I turned to look at whatever she was looking at. "Crap" I mumbled to myself as the lost boys were running from behind me. I looked back at Wynne.

"I love you Peter." I watched her whisper and then she turned away from me. I turned around to face the boys.

"Stay here, I mean it. Stay here where I know you will be safe." I said and then turned around and took off running. I climbed into the ship and I let my anger get the best of me. I was willing to hit anyone who got in my way. I wouldn't let Wynne get hurt.

I stopped for a moment when I realized no one was trying to stop me. I looked around confused, they all noticed me they just weren't trying to attack me. I slowly started moving forward and frantically looking for Wynne. I spent ten minutes searching the ship and found nothing. I looked around one last time, the captain's quarters. I angrily stomped over and slammed the door open.
