《Hooks Raven{Peter Pan}》Chapter 5
Advertisement
*Ravens POV *
We flew over Neverland for so long that it eas well past 3 o' clock when we did eventually start to go down. I hated being so close to Pan after he had taken me away from dad. He kept saying that he was helping me but I didn't need help. Well I do now but I didn't before.
At last I heard us land. We were standing in a tree and below us were all of the lost boys looking up expectingly.
"Who's that Peter?" I heard one of them call.
"Yeah who is she? Is she the person the chief was talking about?" Another shouted.
"Why are you carrying her? Does she like it or is she not able to walk?" Another asked.
"Okay everyone listen up. This is Raven. She's part of Hooks gang, she is able to walk, clearly she doesn't fly and of course she likes me holding her don't you Raven?" He said looking down at me.
I was so sick if him acting like he knew all about me. Of course I could fly but due to the fact that he was holding me, I couldn't even walk right now let alone fly.
"Pan, you have exactly twenty seconds to let me go before I decide to honour captain Skull and and slit your throat!" I said through my clenched teeth.
"Oh yeah I forgot to mention that. She's not very nice." He replied.
"Oh for heavens sake, let me go!" I said raising me voice a bit.
"If that's what you want princess. But just so you know, the ground is quite hard." He said before proceeding to put his hands over the side of the tree and letting me go.
As usual I fell a few inches before just floating in mid air.
"Oh ouch my back. That was really sore. Oh the pain. It's agony."I said sarcastically.
Pan, who was looking up smugly, looked down and saw me floating there. His face fell in shock

"How...how did you... I..." He looked at me incredulously.
"Yeah. Anyway while you figure out how to speak I'm going to go. See you." I said before swiftly flying upwards. I had to figure out how to get back to Pirate Cove and fast because pan would be after me as soon as he remembered how to breath.
I kept flying until suddenly I felt someone grab my ankle. Turning around, I saw Pan flying behind me hand on my ankle.
"Let me go Pan! I'm warning you!" I shouted.
"What are you going to do? I have your knife." He said pulling me down again.
I swiftly swung my free leg around and whacked him in the face, giving him a black eye from what I could see.
He still didn't let go and just grabbed my arms instead and continued down wards.
When we reached the ground, I was surrounded immediately by Lost Boys who made me kneel in front of Pan with my hands behind my back. In his hand was a big purple berry. Knowing what it was I immediately began struggling.
Unfortunately who ever was holding me wasn't planning on letting go anytime soon. Pan stood in front of me and squashed the berry in my face. Instead of squinting out a sweet juice, a dark purple steam came out and sprayed my face.
I immediately began to feel weak and felt myself drifting off. I heard Pans voice which sounded a million years away.
"Sweet dreams."
When I awoke it was nearly dark outside. The Raven Berry clearly wasn't that strong. I sat up and looked around. I was in what looked like a cave with I tiny window above me. There was bars made of what looked like wood and tar in front of the entrance with two lost boys guarding door.
I tried to get up and found that my leg was tied with a chain. The end of the chain was attached to a rock that probably weighed as much as Tick-Tock the crocodile.

When I finally got up, I walked over to the bars of my cell.
They were talking quietly among themselves so I cleared my throat loudly making them jump.
"Hello there. My names Raven. I am your prisoner. Let me out. Thanks." I said with a smile.
"S-s-sorry. We c-c-cant. We were g-g-given orders to make S-s-sure you stayed here till p-p-peter came back." The smaller one stuttered.
"And where might I ask is the amazing Peter Pan?" I asked, practically spitting out the name.
"He went to the real world to get more lost boys from the orphanages. He will be back any minute now. He said he wanted to talk to you." The older boy said.
"Correction, I am back. Boys you can go. Tell Hunter to get some of the you know what and attach it to a necklace. I need to speak with the little princess over here." Pan said walking into the room.
When the two boys had finally left, Pan walked over to me and leaned against the bars.
"What do you want Pan?" I asked already sick of being in his presence.
"Well I would appreciate an apology for one thing." He started.
"An apology for what? Being in your presence?" I replied sharply.
" Need I remind you that your foot collided with my face only hours ago?" He said raising an eye brow.
"You don't need an apology for that. You deserved that! There's a difference."
"Really? What makes you think I deserve to be whacked in the face?" He said.
"You were hanging on to my ankle dragging me downwards. How do I know you weren't trying to look up my skirt. There is nothing of interest in there just so you know!" I said loudly.
"Honestly you think I would try to look up there?" He took a deep breath before continuing." Okay so I'm probably not going to get an apology. Anyway I wanted to simply ask you a question."
I rolled my eyes. "What do you want Pan?"
"Why did you honestly want to stay with captain hook. He is a pirate. He lives on a ship with men who have horrible teeth and smell like they haven't washed in weeks. I would be begging to leave!" He said, shuddering slightly at the thought of It.
" It's nothing like that. The crew have actually got no scurvy whatsoever. Also they don't smell that bad. We wash most weeks in clean water and we actually use soap." I replied.
"That still doesn't answer my question. Why are you so close with Hook? You never leave his side." Pan said hitting his head against the bars.
"The great Peter Pan thinks he's so smart and yet he can't even see the most obvious things flying in front of his face. Hook is my father, Pan. Isn't it obvious?" I replied.
I watched as pan stood back a bit and stared at me as though I had just spoken Portuguese. He kept shaking his head as if that would make it change.
"He...He's your dad?" He said still looking at me.
"Yes, Pan. He's my dad. Honestly keep up."
"Well this is a turn of events. I did not see that coming. Anyway, we're going to have to keep you here for a while. It's nothing personal it's just the Indian Chief told us that we needed to bring you back because if anyone found out that you could fly and stuff, they would probably kill you. Just saying." He said scratching the back of his neck.
"Really? I have to live in a cave for the next goodness knows how long? Can I at least get a proper room?" I said, flopping back against the wall.
"That can maybe be arranged but until then, you stay in the cave." And with that he walked out of my prison shutting the door and leaving me in the semi- darkness, alone.

Femira spent her life stealing scraps and looting corpses just to survive another day. When she stumbles upon the chance to steal another's identity, she thinks she's found the ticket to an easy life.

It swings between action, drama, and sometimes some darker comedy. Warning: A whole lot of profanity, alcohol, drugs, implied violence, actual violence and mega-violence—the kind that involves knives sliding into eye sockets and brains spilling onto floors—the usual stuff, scenes of intimacy, mercenaries, pirates, lots of moral ambiguity, including a wizard that likes to make tea with the heat sucked from his victim's bodies and a heap of world-ending monsters ready to eat people. _______________ Expectations: Updates every Monday and Thursday. Chapters will be between 2,000 and 5,000 words. I'm Irish and write in "Irish English" which is to say that I don't use much of the letter "z"
