chapter 54
54 – Act 2. Neverland of Eternity – Temporary Companion (5)
The ceiling separating the ground and the underground begins to crack.
Pink halo is the symbol of Tinkerbell.
As promised, she was ready to bury Peter Pan in this basement, and when the rift reached its climax, it was time for us to back off.
“T ink? Tink, are you there?”
But the light caught Peter Pan’s attention.
The giant baby, who took his eyes off us who were attacking us alternately, stretched out his hand to the ground and slowly advanced.
“Fortard, is it still far away!?”
“It was just after the shot!!”
We need to keep Peter Pan in one place as much as possible.
Of course, I heard that everything was going to collapse in that direction, but there was a message that if possible, I would like to hit all that mass from the center to the front.
It was around the time that Peter Pan was drawn to Tinkerbell’s miracle despite the fake woodcutter I raised, the pirates’ gunfire, and the natives’ attack.
“Peter is still well.”
“…… Uh huh?”
“Hello, Peter Pan.”
“Whehehehe!!”
The giant baby’s eyes were all on one girl.
Wendy lowers her eyes and waves her hand, and Peter Pan smiles broadly at the girl.
“Wendyyyyy!!”
“Really, I hate it whenever I see it.”
A red cloak stands next to Wendy, who says she hates it.
All eyes of Peter Pan, who was trying to move while extending his hand, were focused on Wendy herself, just like the girl said, so he was out of danger of moving.
The problem now is how to control Peter Pan, which will move while looking at only one target…….
“I’ll fly around Peter. You match my movements can you?”
Wendy casually tapped her red cloak on the shoulder and spoke to her, and at this she frowned.
“You say it your way.”
“Can’t you?”
“Can you fly?”
At that, Wendy nodded her head.
“Somehow with the magic of tincture. That cute fairy can give others the power to fly.”
Is it Tinkerbell’s legacy?
Obviously if you look at Peter Pan’s fairy tales, she gave Peter Pan and other children the freedom to fly.
In that case, I wondered what it would be like if all of us were given that ability, but we might not be able to have that group of people blow up all over the ground.
“…… Do as you please.”
“Then take care of the next business.”
Despite Little Red Riding Hood’s curt reply, Wendy smiled and flew around Peter Pan, and her Little Red Riding Hood also opened her own book and brought the golden wind.
A little more.
The cracks were already visibly large, and Tinkerbell’s miracle was gradually gaining momentum.
If you can see it from deep underground, it means that the erosion of the ground is almost complete.
In that case, we had to get out of the area safely above all else after holding Peter Pan until that moment.
The strategy is to tie Peter Pan’s feet until we get out safely.
So, I assist Wendy in moving with Little Red Riding Hood, and the others connect it as rear support to focus on protecting the two.
“It’s Wendy, Wendy! My Wendy!!”
Peter Pan started spinning around me, following the flying Wendy.
Everyone sighed in relief at the sight of him not even thinking about moving anywhere, and prepared in their respective positions, but only one person couldn’t.
“Why. Why, that child.”
Captain Hook, the recipient of the pirates.
He frowned as he looked at Wendy, who was flying far ahead.
“Who are you!! Who me…… You approved of Wendy’s arbitrary behavior, right? Should I have the right to command in this place?”
“Captain. She talked to me.”
“Is that you?”
Captain Hook’s blue eyes shimmer.
If you say something wrong, you’ll be in trouble for months.
He said he had no relationship, but who would say that Wendy and Hook have nothing to do with such an overreaction?
“Wendy is not a member of the pirates. Her actions are always in the hands of Tinkerbell. Out of it?”
“Does it make sense to put children first?”
“She was sure, and I trusted her. It’s me and Little Red Riding Hood that match the sum in the front line. I don’t think there was any other way out of this situation.”
At that, Hook paused, then, as if thinking deeply about something, he pressed his lips together, and looked around before finally opening his mouth.
“…… Now is the time, so I won’t say more than this, but if you want to do something, let me know. No matter how unique your position is, you are a member of the Hook Pirates.”
“Doesn’t she like Wendy leading the way?”
“I hate dogmatism. …… That child has nothing to talk about now.”
It doesn’t seem like that to anyone, but just like Hook said, it’s not something to argue with right now.
It’s too early to say that all of this Neverland’s problems have been resolved.
The relationship between Wendy and Captain Hook obviously has a secret story, but the first thing to do is to defeat the disaster we are facing right now.
“Wendy Wendy Wendyeee!!”
“…… You are always like that.”
A girl with dark hair flying in the sky.
The red cloak that was running at Peter Pan’s feet scattered golden light and shot several magic beams close to the beam, hitting Peter Pan’s massive body, but the giant did not collapse.
“Can’t do this?”
“Little Red Riding Hood!! Get out first!”
“…… Not yet.”
She grabbed her hatchet and ran at it, cutting off Peter Pan’s ankle.
However, due to the overwhelming difference in weight, Red Riding Hood’s hand ax would feel like being cut through a sheet of paper for a human.
Peter Pan, who had focused all of her attention on Wendy, stretched out his hand as if to catch Wendy, who was flying away as if he didn’t even feel her attack.
“Battery! Keep shooting! I’m going to draw the attention this way somehow!!”
“Is the front one okay?”
“…… I just have to believe that it’s okay. Now we continue our work.”
Catch Peter Pan’s attention and hold him.
By the time her outstretched hand reached Wendy, her bombardment, or the magic of Little Red Riding Hood on the ground, hit her hand hard and interrupted, and Wendy circled around Peter Pan, drawing her attention. .
Even in the meantime, the pink light on the ceiling becomes more vivid.
If Tinkerbell’s divine power permeates the ground and eventually takes over all the ground connecting the ground and the underground waterway, it’s over.
How many more times did I fight with the thought of dragging and dragging time like this and somehow keeping him from moving until that time?
“A message from Tinkerbell.”
After flying in the sky, Wendy rises into the air and looks at the entire battlefield and exclaims with her mystery.
“Ready. If you don’t want to die together, leave the battlefield right away.”
The moment she had been waiting for finally came.
The pink color that symbolizes Tinker Bell is already in full bloom and emits a clear light, and in the meantime, Peter Pan continues to stay in the area we assumed.
Now it’s time to finish the operation.
“Ready! Grab your bags and get on board! The natives are moving on their own.”
If everyone can survive here, the operation will be successful.
Even after defeating Peter Pan, there are still interspersed interest in the recovery of Neverland, but it can only be discussed with life.
“Little Red Riding Hood!!”
In the distance, still running at Peter Pan’s feet, calling out to Red Riding Hood, who was rioting with her magic, she stretched out her hand, and she responded with a grin as she ran and grabbed her hand.
Wendy hasn’t flown here yet, but she has the mystery of her flight.
At least we had to get on the boat and start getting out of here so she could fly away from Peter Pan, so we had to hurry up.
“Those who lag behind are abandoned. Got it? If you don’t want to die, grit your teeth and run!”
Fortunately, the ship was in the middle of the deployment of the natives and pirates.
That’s why everyone in the party joined relatively quickly, and it didn’t take long to get on board thanks to stealing things to take care of in advance.
“If that weight collapses, the whole area will be involved.”
“The number of oarsmen has been increased. There’s nothing wrong with getting out as long as you have a certain amount of time. …… If we had a little more time, that child would have climbed with us.”
In the distance, Wendy was still avoiding Peter Pan’s hand, drawing her attention.
A choice we can’t help but buy time to avoid.
This was inevitable because Wendy’s flight was overwhelmingly faster than the ship’s speed, but Captain Hook frowned as if he didn’t like that either.
“Hook. You still care about that b*tch.”
As if it had been the same before, the chief of the natives approached him and gave him a laugh that bordered on sneering.
“Since when have you been so interested in others?”
“There are bound to be many.”
The chief finished his short remark and turned his head to look at Peter Pan.
“It is a known fact from previous meetings that that monster is the body of Tinkerbell’s ridiculous power. The death of that here is like the downfall of the fairy who ruled Neverland with overwhelming power.”
“Ibo show.”
“The only thing left is Tinkerbell’s Neverland, us, and your pirates, which, despite their collapse, still have a majority, right?”
Has the chief already thought about that?
No, the word already is ridiculous.
In fact, in a situation where it became clear that the loss of Peter Pan would lead to the weakening of Tinkerbell, everyone was already thinking about who would have control of Neverland.
Tinkerbell’s Neverland is still strong.
However, it was no longer so strong that there was no way to counter it like before, so it was not strange that the natives were also seeking to return to their old hometowns.
“Isn’t there still a lot to do?”
“Our highest goal has always been to restore our hometown. It is the long-cherished wish of our tribe that has been passed down from generation to generation. Tinkerbell will still try to create a children’s paradise, but what are you going to do?”
Captain Hook’s wish.
He said he would destroy the children’s paradise, but what does he hope for after that has come true?
While the conversation was going on, a loud roar finally began to reverberate in the distance.
“Has it started?”
She sees Wendy flying this way in the distance, followed by a huge, deafening noise that travels up the walls of the cistern and reverberates in all directions.
Is this the solution to the disaster we are facing?
There may be remaining conflicts, but at least those are conflicts between humans.
Then my role as Little Red Riding Hood ends here.
If she could go back to being an adult, there was no reason for me to stay here.
“Whoa… ….”
“Are you tired?”
“A little bit.”
As I answered Little Red Riding Hood’s question, I sat down as my legs gave out.
