Once Upon A Pan

Chapter 4

Hannah POV

I trudge into the jungle carefully.

I keep hearing things in the jungle but there is no sign of anything.

My legs start to ache so I decide to sit down.

I decide to make some sort of weapon.

I found some pointy metal on the floor and some broken branches and I manage to make two bows and twenty arrows.

I feel so proud of myself because I've never made anything like that before. I start to practice and I'm pretty good.

All of a sudden I hear a snap on a branch behind me and stand up quickly I raise my bow and arrow and aim it at something shocking.

A boy...

"Who are you?" I ask calmly.

"I was about to ask you the same thing" the boy says.

I look at him and give him an evil glare.

"Who are you?" I say getting really angry now.

"Peter Pan" he says.

"And who might you be?" Peter sniggers.

"I will not answer you" I say.

"You will answer me because I said so and because I told you mine, what's your name?" Peter asks.

A shiver runs down my spine I aim and then let the arrow fly.

It almost hit him right in the heart when he caught it.

He caught a flying arrow. I have to learn how to do that.

"Hannah" I say in shock.

"See that wasn't so hard was it?" Peter says.

"What do you want?" I say.

"To know who you are and what your doing on Neverland" peter says. He's stopped smiling now.

"How old are you?" I ask smiling.

"Well you don't grow old here but I'm 18 how old are you?" Peter asks

"I'm 17" I say.

"Well what are you doing here Hannah?" Peter asks.

"I wanted to get away from my dad and I decided to get on Hooks ship and he took me here and then left me here" I say worriedly.

"Why would you want to get away from your dad?" Peter asks. I sigh. I was hoping he wouldn't ask that question.

"He used to beat me" I say sadly.

"And your mother?" He asks curiously.

"My dad killed her when I was 6" I say starting to get tears in my eyes.

He gave me a loving look and then says "I'm sorry. How did it happen?".

"He was beating her. She was screaming. He pushed her into the kitchen and she grabbed a knife. But he grabbed it and stabbed her in the heart. He then ran out of the house which is when I came into the kitchen and sat with my mum until she passed away" I say crying.

He walks towards me and starts comforting me. He gives me a hug and for the first time in 10 years I feel safe. I pull myself away after two minutes and say "thank you but I should be heading off".

"Why don't you come with me, I have a camp and I have a group of people called the lost boys they're friendly the last time I checked" Peter says smiling.

I think about this for a moment or two then I pick up my bag and my bow and arrow and say "okay thank you".

He smiles and says "hold on to me". I don't want to be rude so I hold onto his waist and then we soar into the air.

"You can fly" I say amazingly.

"Yes and I can teach you if you want" peter says.

"Yes please" I say.

We then land on the ground and we are just outside his camp and he says "this way" and leads me into his camp.
