~ Chapter 5 ~

I looked around the sailing vessel and watched as it continued to aggressively rock mid air. My confusion still very clear.

With my confusion, all I could do is look over the side wondering 'what am I doing to cause this?'

In mid thought process I was brought out of it by an angry pirate.

"you are not allowed up here?!" and with that growled out - the pirate grabbed me by the back of my school top and dragged me back down below.

Once chucked down below, he locked me away in a cell before storming off to I presume back on the upper deck.

I sighed in defeat. How am I gonna get out of this pickle now?

I sat against the bars and thought about it. What should I do?

Use your powers Delilah!

Use my powers?! what on earth.... But how?

Silence.

Well thanks tiger lily for not helping what so ever?!

Still, nothing!

I officially give up...

I looked at the cell bars one more time - trying to think of a way to get out.

But then suddenly I faintly heard a voice coming from outside the swaying ship.

"oh captain Hook!" the voice shouted out in a cheerful manner? how on earth could anyone be cheerful in this situation?!

I looked at the bars yet again and thought about it - what should I do?!

Then suddenly a ball of light zoomed by me which made me slightly shocked. I watched the ball of light as I came back towards me and there it was - the fairy again.

I stared at the fairy in wonder. I could make out a small green dress which looked like a leaf and little green shoes which had a white pom poms on each - she looked like a miniature doll.

"hey there!" I whispered to the fairy in a cheeful manner. I guess the voice from outside wasn't completely wrong for being so cheerful.

I watched as the fairy gave me a small smile before zooming off to what I presume is to find a way to unlock this cell.

I sat there - waiting. Not even knowing if the fairy would come back to me; but hoping she would...

I waited for a few moments - all the noise from the outside world was blocked by the thick walls made out of wood. The rocking had momentarily stopped.

I waited still.

Then I saw the ball of light again and smiled sweetly. I knew she'd come back! And a blonde haired boy followed behind the fairy - looking rather radiant.

I smiled at the boy. As he did the same.

"my names Peter, Peter Pan." he exclaimed before finding the keys to get me out.

He opened the door and waited for me to walk out. I walked out the cell and said a quick 'thank you' to the boy as I continued to walk out of the cell.

Then something clicked. I turned back around to the boy and said the name, "peter pan?"

The boy nodded his head, "yep, that's me!"

I looked at the ground before I realised, "tiger lily said to trust you and only you..."

I looked at Peter and saw that he was smiling at the thought, "im glad she still trusts me. I thought she hated me..."

I smiled, "i don't think she could ever hate you Peter Pan."

I watched as Peter smiled.

"well, we better get going." he sighed before dragging me along with him.

He took me up to the upper deck where it was surprisingly quite.

"where are they all?" I asked.

He shrugged, "after I had a fight with them - they retreated because of the sudden stopping of the swaying. They are currently petrified I presume."

I sighed. That was my doing....

The boy walked towards the edge before lifting into the air. He could really fly?!

I looked up at him in wonderment.

"come along - we have to go!"

I walked over to the edge and looked down. It was a LONG drop to the ground. This made me gulp involuntary.

I looked back up at Peter in fear, "i can't. I can't fly off of this."

Peter thought for a moment before going after something which I have no idea what it was.

He landed back on the ship again and grabbed the little fairy before sprinkling some of the pixies sparkle on me.

"what is this stuff?" I asked.

Peter gave out a small laugh, "it's pixie dust."

Peter then went back into the air with the fairy following behind him.

"come along - think happy thoughts and they'll lift you into the air."

I looked at the ground - happy thoughts?

My parents? my mother? my annoying brother?

I looked below me and still saw that my feet were sill plastered to the wooden deck.

Hmmm, let's think about this some more...

How about thinking of the tribe. They always make me happy...

I thought about it. Would that really make me fly?

Well, it's worth a try..

The tribe? tiger Lily's beloved tribe? my tribe? my family?

I looked back at the ground and saw that I was still in the same position. I could practically hear tiger Lily's shock from here.

Is there something wrong with me?!

After a few moments of tiger lily freaking out in my head she replied:

There is nothing wrong with you Delilah. It's just- I thought you were exactly like me in every sence of word. But I guess I was wrong which is weird.

I have to try again.

I thought about it long and hard and looked at Peter who seemed to be thinking of a solution to my non flying capabilities. I then looked at the fairy and somehow something clicked...

FAIRIES?!

It was screaming louder than day inside my head.

FAIRY PRINCE?!

It overtook my train of thought. My brain buzzing with one thing and one thing only - fairies...

I smiled involuntary and looked around me to see myself souring high into the sky. I looked beside me and saw Peter who gave me a smile.

"i knew you could do it!" he then went ahead of me, "hold onto my ankle - we're going to Neverland!"

I held onto Peters ankle without hesitation as tiger lily herself said that Peter was the only person I could trust....
