Darker Than You Know ( A Peter Pan (Robbie Kay) Fan Fiction)

Chapter 15

"Umm, he uhh..." I didn't know how to respond to him.

"Who is Charlie?" He spoke angrily as he stood up and stalked closer to the bed.

"Is this him?" He questioned as he held up the picture of Charlie and me that I had brought.

"That's mine!" I yelled as I reached for it, but he quickly pulled it away.

"It is him, isn't it." He yelled.

"Why should I tell you?" I shouted back with equal volume as I stood up.

"Who is he?" He said a low tone as he gripped my forearms.

"Let go of me!" I commanded as I tried to pull my arms from his grasp. He held on tighter and blood from underneath my bandaged arm began to appear.

"You're hurting me!" I yelled angrily at him. He looked down at the fresh blood beginning to soak the bandage and he backed away.

"I'm...sorry." He said hastily as he disappeared from the treehouse in seconds.

"Ass." I whispered to myself as I gazed at my picture that Peter had dropped on his way out.

***Pan's POV***

Why do I do that? I need to stay focused, she is distracting me. But I lo-

"Pan." Felix ran towards me.

"Yes, Felix?" I said in a slightly annoyed tone.

"We found the boy." Felix said with a dark smile on his face.

"Prepare the boys." I said quickly as Felix and I ran to begin the plan.

***Emerald's POV***

"UGGGHHH." I groaned in complete frustration.

"Thanks Charlie! Just think of me and concentrate... BLAH BLAH BLAH!!" I shouted angrily from my position on the tree house floor.

This isn't working... Maybe, it was just a dream and it doesn't have any significance.

"Great." I muttered. "I'm delusional."

I uncrossed my legs to get up off the floor. I walked to the wall and let my head bang into it.

"Hi there. Let's keep the concussions to a minimum, please." I turned slowly at the familiar voice of Holly who was way too happy.

"Hi Holly." I said with my best attempts of sounding happy.

"What's wrong?" She asked while walking over to me.

I told her everything that had happened and she listened without interrupting.

"And that leads to now, which is me trying to summon Charlie or whatever it is I'm doing." I put my face in my hands and I felt Holly's hand pat my shoulder.

"Try one more time. But, let me help you!!" Holly cheered happily as she laid me on my back.

"Ok." She smiled. "Think of a memory of you and Charlie." I sat motionless for a moment.

"You got one?" She asked.

"Yeah." I smiled at the memory of Charlie and I by the river having a picnic.

"Alright, just keep thinking of that memory and breath in and out. In and out. In and ou......"

Holly's voice started to fade as I was pulled into the memory.

"Charlie!!" I screamed as Charlie lifted me off the ground and threw me over his shoulder.

"Fine then!" I said proudly. "Your hat is now mine!!" I hollered in triumph as I stole his Yankees ball cap off his head.

"Hey now, let's not get crazy." He laughed and set me down on the tablecloth by the picnic basket. I kicked him behind the knee and he fell on top of me.

"Hey Emmy." He said calmly.

"Hey Charlie." I said as I looked into his eyes.

"Emmy." Charlie said with complete seriousness.

"This is yours." He said while pointing to my heart.

"Charlie, I don't understand-"

"Just listen. It belongs to you, don't let anyone take it from you. Guard it." His eyes held a sense of urgency.

"Take it? How do I-"

"Stay away from him. He's darker than you know." Charlie said with a look of complete desperation in his eyes.

"Charlie, when you said he would kill me..." My words got quieter as my sentence progressed.

"I'm not lying. If you don't get out of this mess, you will die." His voice broke on the word die and his eyes were watery.

"You weren't supposed to be a part of this. You weren't meant to fall for each other." A tremor shook through his body.

"We don't have time left. I'm sorry Emmy. I'm trying so hard." The tears were flowing freely from his eyes as the trees surrounding us began to violently sway in the wind.

"I don't understand!" I screamed over the wind.

"Trust no one. Protect yourself, it's all you can do." Charlie yelled as he placed a kiss upon my forehead before we were once again ripped apart by the wind.

My eyes opened to Holly's worried expression.

"Oh thank goodness!" She screeched.

"You stopped breathing and you didn't have a heartbeat. I thought you were dead!" Holly hugged me tight and she laughed in happiness.

"Must be a weird thing that happens when I 'summon Charlie'." I said sarcastically.

"Holly, something is very wrong here." I stated while I thought of what I needed to do.

"Tell me about it." Holly laughed with a slightly worried expression on her face. Loud shouts suddenly came from the forests below the treehouse. Holly and I got up to look down the ladder.

"Why is everyone running like crazy?" Holly ran to a window to further assess the situation.

"I don't have a good feeling about this." My head was spinning and I felt nauseous as I remembered Charlie's warning.

"Let's go check it out, we can stay hidden if it will make you feel better." Holly said as she began the descent down the ladder.

Once we reached the ground we slowly approached a group of boys but stayed concealed behind the trees.

"The boy is with him now. Pan is testing him. You all know what to do."

"That's Felix!" Holly whispered to me. I nodded it agreement as the uneasy feeling in my stomach grew. The group of boys ran off into the trees and Felix stormed off in another direction.

"So something is going on, that's obvious enough." Holly drummed her finger against her lip in thought.

"Yeah, I'm clueless. I have no idea." She sighed in defeat.

"Here's the plan, you go try and get some answers from Felix, and I will look for Peter." I looked around carefully before I stood.

"Be careful," Holly warned, "Try to stay hidden, we don't know if anyone is in danger." Holly mock saluted me before sneaking off into some bushes.

I put my hands on my hips and let out a long exhale.

"Alright Pan, let's play."

***AUTHOR'S NOTE***

I feel terrible for taking so long to update. On the bright side, I'm nearly done with the next chapter.

The plot is going to basically follow the show from here, but I am throwing my own twists on it. It's going to be similar, but also very different.

And thank you all for your lovely comments!!!

CuteKatLove and artificalsmile are awesome!! Just thought I would let you all know that.
