I'm not really lost

Chapter 14

I walked out of the tent, pulling on my coat. No longer wearing that stupid dress. I walked over to the boys. They all looked at me for a moment, before one jumped down. I looked over at them, it was Matt. "Jackie, turn." Matt said. I gave him a look and I turned to the rope. I let out a sigh and grabbed the rope. "This is on you, if anything happens." I said to him. "Well, don't let anything happen." he said to me. "Hold this." I said to him, throwing my coat at him. I grabbed the rope with my other hand and places my feet on the rope. I remember doing this before, once at school. The question isn't can I do this. The question is can I do it again. If I couldn't Matt would feel bad. "Hey, Jack. you can stop now." I looked down to see them on the ground. I was far above them, and I smiled down at them. I slowly came down and landed somewhat hard. "Told you she could do it." I hear Mark say. "You wanted her to fall, so you could caught her." I hear someone say. I walked away from the group and Matt ran up to me. "That looked like it hurt, here sit down." he said, giving me my coat down.

"Are you okay?" I turned to see Henry sitting there. "I'm fine." I said to him as I brushed a loose strand out of my face. "You remind me of a friend of mine." Henry said to me. I looked down at him for a moment. "Who's this friend of your?" I asked him. "She straight, but she worried she's a villain. I don't think she is a villain. I wish she wouldn't think that, but she can't help it." he said, looking up at me. "Sounds like something I would say." I muttered. "What was that?" he asked me. "Why does she think she's a villain?" I asked. "She's done a bunch of things over her lifetime, bad things." he said to me. "Oh." was all I said. "But the worse thing she's even done, she doesn't even know that I know." He stopped. "You can tell me Henry." I said to him. "She lost her daughter. Her Annabelle." he said to me. "Annabelle." I whispered to myself. I started up at the fire and watched it dance. "Hey, what's wrong?" I looked down at Henry for a moment. "Ya, I'm fine." I said to him as I whipped my face.

"Owww" I turned to see Devin standing there pointing Henry. "So, you're the boy Pan's been looking for all this time." Devin said, pointing Henry. "Ask him." Henry said. Devin goes for Henry's feet. Henry jumps back and Davin smiled at this. Something in me snapped and I grabbed Devin's stick. He tries to make me let go, but I don't. I stared at him for a moment as he gets his stick back. "What's your next move?" I ask him. He hits me out of fear as I shield myself. He hits me over and over. I've had enough of this and push him with my magic away from me. He only fell to the ground. Something in him tried again and this time is was too much. Something clicked as I covered my face and my magic tried to protect me, by giving me ideas. " Stop it!" I yelled and felt something slip on my wrist. I looked over to see Matt standing there and pulled my hands away from my head. Devin didn't stop with Henry and Matt was too busy holding me up. "If you can't take this, how are you gonna handle what Pan has in store for you?" Devin asked him. I looked down and kicked a stick at Henry. Henry picked it up and they started fighting. Matt pulling me to the log to sit. "Not bad. But wouldn't it be more fun, if you had real swords?" I heard Pan ask. "I've never used a real sword." Henry said.

"This is Neverland and you have the heart of the truest believer. You can use whatever you want." Pan said, places a hand on Henry's shoulder. "You just need to believe, Henry. Close your eyes and believe you're holding a real sword." he went on. I watched as Henry turned to stick into a sword. "What are you waiting for? Go on." Pan said and Henry when after Devin. I watched as the other lost boys cheers. "Go on! Go for it! Keep going! Come on!" Pan said and he cut Devin. "Come on, Henry!" Pan called out. I watched as Henry cut Devin and blood ran down. "Henry." I called out. He looked at me, then back at Devin. "I'm sorry. It was an accident." Henry said. "Henry. Don't you know the best thing about being a Lost Boy?" Pan asked as he handed Henry his sword. "You never apologize. Come on." Pan said. I heard the the lost boys yell and cheer. "Yeah." Henry said.
