Day 4
At night, the boys slept in their warm house under the ground. The Indians sat, waited, and watched for pirates…
…but the pirates watched them, too.
One day, Wendy told the boys a true story – about Mrs Darling. 'Our mother leaves a window open for us,' Wendy said at the end of the story. 'So we can go home one day.'
'I went home once,' Peter said angrily, 'but the window was closed. There was a new boy in my bed!'
John and Michael were afraid. 'Let's go home,' they told Wendy. 'Before Mother closes the window!'
'Can we go with them?' the Lost Boys asked.
'Go if you want,' Peter said quietly. 'I'm staying here.'
Suddenly, they heard noises above them.
'The pirates are attacking!' Peter cried.
Peter took his sword, but Wendy stopped him.
'Don't go out!' she said. 'You must stay with the boys.'
Above them, the Indians fought bravely – but the pirates fought better. Soon, most of the Indians were dead.
The boys sat and listened to the battle.
'Who's going to win?' John asked.
'I don't know,' Peter said. 'We must listen for the drums. When the Indians win a battle, they play the drums.'
Smee was by a hollow tree, and he heard the boys. Next to him was a dead Indian – and a drum!
'Tiger Lily saved us!' the boys cried when they heard the drums. So they went up their hollow trees.
Peter stayed in the house and thought about Wendy. She wanted to go home, and he was sad.
When Wendy and the boys came out of their trees, the pirates caught them. Hook took off his hat to Wendy, because it was good form.
'Take them to the ship,' Hook told his men. 'Wendy can be our mother, but the boys are all going to die!'
Hook waited for Peter, but he didn't come out. Tinkerbell sat in a tree and watched Hook.
'Peter's in the house,' Hook thought, 'But how can I go down there? Hollow trees are for little boys, not big pirates.'
But just then, Tootles came out of his tree. Tootles was a very big boy, so his tree was big!
Slowly, quietly, Hook went down Tootles's tree. It was dark inside the house, but Hook could see Peter. He was asleep.
'It isn't good form to kill a sleeping boy,' Hook thought, angrily. He nearly left, but then he stopped and smiled.
Hook took a bottle from his coat. He put some poison into Peter's medicine cup, then he left.
'Peter, wake up!' Tinkerbell cried.
'What is it?' Peter asked.
'The pirates took Wendy and the boys to their ship!'
