I hit my head against the cage I was trapped in, groaning in annoyance. Wendy wouldn't shut up! Complaining about the love life she didn't seem to have. I mean you've been trapped in a cage for 100 years! Now, I have a reason to kill someone when I get out of here. I kicked the cage again and again, still listening to Wendy's nagging.
"It wasn't until I realized that it was a trick." She finished with fresh tears on her face. I rolled my eyes and turned to her.
"So, you're telling me is that Pan tricked you into falling in love with him just for mere amusement?" I rephrased and she nodded, sadly. "News flash, Wendy. There is no love in this world. Especially, Neverland." Her eyebrows scrunched up.
"You don't believe in true love?" She asked.
"It doesn't exist." I forcibly said.
"How are you supposed to get out of here if you don't believe?" I thought about her words and I shrugged, turning away from her and staring out in the distant tree line. To be honest, I stopped believing in love a long time ago. From my father to Tinkerbell. "There's a story about Peter and I where we fall in love and I think that guy who wrote it, got it right. There is hope there for a good Peter Pan." Wendy spoke again. I scoffed, laughing out loud. "Think what you want, Riley. I'm going to bed." I watched as she curled up in the cage and laid her head down on the cloth that was put inside there.
"Riley." Someone piped up. My head rose and I looked around my surroundings. "Over here." That familiar dirty blonde hair. Tinkerbell. I pressed my body against the cage in excitement. My face was touching the bars.
"What are you doing here? Pan will have your head on a stick if he finds you!" I whispered/shouted at her.
"I'm here to break you out." She announced and lifted a rock that was on the ground. She lifted the rock above her head and smashed it down on the lock. The locked clicked and fell apart on the ground. I grinned and opened the cage, quickly. I threw my arms around Tink and hugged her, tightly. She responded, instantly and squeezed me.
"Why?" I asked, burying my head into her neck.
"I thought you'd never forgive me after what happened and I needed to make it up to you." She explained in a hush tone.
"You're forgiven, Tink." I smiled and let go of her. She smiled, widely. I stood up and started to walk away.
"What about Wendy?" She asked, pointing to the cage.
"I'll come back in another 100 years." I laughed. Tink caught up to me. She grabbed my hand and pulled me, faster.
"Come on. Emma needs you." She explained and off we went to go find Emma.
