Captain Hook's Daughter

Chapter 4: Wendy has Cooties!

"Tink, I don't know what to do." I sigh while leaning on one of the rocks in Mermaid Lagoon; where Peter tends to visit. "Well, first things first, I don't like her." says Tink. "Well, obviously. She thinks she can just come up in here and be all: I'm a damsel in distress who deserves the boy who saved me and I am so much better than everyone here, whine, whine, whine, nag,nag,nag, trousers are not meant for girls, blah, blah, blah." I say sticking up my nose in the air like a snob and do my best Wendy impression. "Well--" before Tink can finish I hear it. The loud splash not two feet away. Marina. And that's when it hits me. The most perfect diabolical plan possible.

"Hey, girls. How's it hangin'?" asks my scaly friend. "Not so well." I say in my most persuasive voice possible. "Oh, it's not your dad right? Oo-oo-oo wait, don't tell me. It's the juiciest gossip on the land. Hurry up so I can tell my girls. They're dying for gossip, they haven't heard anything new since hmmmm, yesterday." Marina says perkily. "Well," I begin and tell her everything.

About 15 minuets later. "Wow--. She--. Mmm. Speechless! How can she say that mermaids are not real. I mean I'm here and my sisters are and daddy's here. And she's here. Gasp, but what if this is all dream! What if--" Marina rambles. "MARINA! Enough with the what if's because none of its true. And that's not even what I said. I said--" I say. "I know what you said!" Marina says with a huff frustrated that she can't twist up my words to tell the girls. "But," I begin, getting Marina and Tink's attention. "I have a plan......"

When I'm done telling them, "Absolutely devious!" shrieks Marina clapping like a seal. "See, you did inherit something from your dad." says Tink slyly as she plops onto my shoulder heavily.

Now all we have to do is wait for the bait.....
