Peters' lost girl

Games

"FELIX!" Peter yelled towards his right hand man who had returned to camp mere seconds ago after setting up the archery practice range that Peter had requested he do.

Felix looks up with a confused face as he searches for Peter in the crowd of boys that has congregated in the centre of the camp, once his eyes land on his best friend and leader, "yeah? whats up?" the blonde haired boy questioned looking curiously at the scene that lay before him, both of his fearsome leaders looking like arguing toddlers, a menacing smirk spread across his face as he realised what Pan wanted, " be a pal and throw me some of those apples and that bow and arrow, you know what to do with that..." grinning demonically as they shared a look of understanding. Scarlett squealed in glee and began to jump about with such excitement she might burst.

"okay okay okay, eeeeee FELIX!!! gimme gimme" the giddly girl rambled as Felix drew closer with the required items  for their desired game, shaking his head playfully at the overly excited girl in front of him he handed her what she oh so desired "careful there  little firecracker you especially know not to mess around with such dangerous toys" the tall blonde boy scolded looking down to the bundle of energy before him, rolling her eyes and stomping her tiny feet Scarlett looks up at Felix through her dark long lashes, lip curling up into a vicious snarl "i know that Felix, thank you for reminding me, but im a big girl so BACK OFF!" she growled before attempting to pounce on the boy tormenting her but was stopped short when Peters strong arms wrapped around her waist and suspended her in midair while she continued to kick and claw the air in attempts to grab the now hysterical blonde giant in stitches rolling around on the ground red faced. The rest of the lost boys have subconsciously taken a few steps back except young Henry who has no idea what he has just witnessed. After a few more moments of Scarlett kicking and screaming she began to tire, making the lost boys all take a bareath they didnt realise they had been holding, sighing the now drained girl looks over her shoulder to her captor whos stone cold expression softened as soon as his eyes made contact with her own bright emerald ones, wiggling around in Peters grip she turned to face him holding her arms out making those grabby hands towards the boy she cared for the most. chuckling quietly to himself Peter released the girl and took a step back "no no darling you show our guest your game and then you can go to the tree house okay" he told his special girl, who jutted out her bottom lip but upon seeing his soft but stern gaze nodded her head, red curls bouncing everywhere. Spinning on her heel she faces the large group of boys staring at her in anticipation a devious grim spreads across her face which unsettles some of the older more knowledgeable of the lost boys.

"OKAY BOYS!" Scarlett announces, thrusting her arms into the air, standing the the centre of the congregation of wild boys who began to hoot and holler, shoving each other around. slowly walking to where she had discarded the items given to her by Felix, she picks up the bow and arrow and saunters over to Peter who is now grinning ear to ear as he watches her advance towards him painfully slow, once she reached the leaf clad boy she held out the tip of the arrow in his direction and looked at him with expecting eyes, fluttering her long lashes for extra measure, chuckling slightly he proceeded to untie the small vile from his belt which held many items, ever so carefully opening the vile while keeping eye contact with Scarlett, Peter began to coat the tip of the arrow in the deadly nightshade, native to the shores of Neverland. Grinning maliciously at the equally menacing girl in front of him, he straightened up and reattached the vile to his belt, gently moving the arrow aside he stepped towards Scarlett, reached out his hand and brushed her wild curls out of her face and behind her ear, causing the similarly wild girl to blush crimson and avert her eyes to anywhere but Peter, the later simply smirked at his accomplishment and leant forward to capture the corner of her mouth in a chaste kiss, Scarlett let of a sudden gasp at this action and scurrying away to carry on with her game.

Snatching the bag of apples out of Felix's grasp she turned to face Henry with a cold stare "here catch boy" she uttered in the most monotone voice the boys and Peter had ever heard her use. Confusion crossed their faces as she threw a ruby red apple towards Henry, who fumbled with the apple, then held it in front of himself looking from Pan to Scarlett and back. Peter merely smirked as he took several steps forward so he too was in the centre of the crowd "okay Henry put that apple on top of your head and stand right up against that tree and stay completely still" he stated slowly and he grasped the young boys shoulders and nudged him in the direction of the closest tree. As Henry got into position he questioned the demonic teen "wh-what is she gonna do?" Peter only smirked, a smirk that really put Henry on edge "oh Henry youll soon see, all im going to say is ....... she never misses".  Suddenly the surrounding boys began to stomp their feet creating a loud echoing of noise throughout the camp, mimicking what Henry felt as his heart beat against his chest as Scarlett prepared to fire her arrow, the thuds seemed to be getting louder and louder, to Henry it seemed like a lifetime until the fiery red headed girl released the arrow, when she finally did. Henry finally came to his senses and just as the arrow was about to pierce the apple on top of his head he jumped out of the way, landing on the floor in a heap, the echos of the lost boys ringing in his ears accompanied by the shrill voice of Scarlett complaining about him moving.

"SHUT IT!" Peter hollered, the whole camp silenced and all attention was on Peter , stalking over to where Henry lay in a heap on the floor he took hold of the boy by his shirt collar and pulled him up with such force he could have thrown him to the other side of the island if he let go, once the boy was back on his feel Peter then scanned the still silent group of lost boys until his eyes lay on a shaking Scarlett he knew that another revolt from Henry would send her over the edge, and god help the lost boy that gets caught in her reign of hellfire when its unleashed. Clearing his throat he turns back the the terrified looking boy beside him and gave a demonic grin " well my boy that wasn't part of the game now was it" shaking his head he began to circle Henry like a predator "maybe this time you should shoot the arrow hey scar?  what do ya say to that?" he questions his fiery little lost girl as she tried to control the anger bubbling inside her, taking a big breath she throws on her best smile and waltzes over to the two boys "sure lets switch things up a bit, maybe this'll bring out the lost boy in you" she snarls at Henry as she gently takes the apple which Peter offered her. She takes her place up against the same tree as Henry was stood at and ever so easily balances the red apple ontop of her unruly curls which appeared like a nest to the apple.

Taking in a shaky breath Henry got into position to shoot the poisoned arrow at the top of the young girls head, aiming slightly higher than his target in fear of actually hitting her with the deadly nightshade. He strings the arrow and pulls it back ready to shoot, there's a collective intake of breath as this happens by the surrounding lost boys, Scarlett does not seeme phased at all she tauntingly makes a tic tok sound with her mouth keeping her eyes locked on Henrys. The boy goes to release the arrow and just at the last second swerves himself to shoot in the direction of Peter, the arrow flies through the air as if in slow motion, Peter catches the arrow with his hand mere centimetres from piercing his skin, a dark chuckle erupts from the demonic boy as he looks up from the arrow to its shooter "wasnt that FUN Henry?" he asks but is drowned out by the ragged breathing of Scarlett who is now not only shaking but turning red with fury, she stomps towards Henry with fire in her eyes ready to destroy the boy for the mere idea of trying to poison her Peter. Before she can wrap her shaking hands around the boys trembling shoulders she is cut of by a broad chest and stong arms which encircle her, holding her in place as he directs all the boys to scatter while yelling "ITS HIDE AND SEEK TIME BOYS SCARLETTS ON THE WAY RUN" left right and centre all the boys disperse in every directon they can find, all know some form of secret hide out the island has to offer.

all the boys except one ... Henry...
