New Skin and Old Friends -- PETER&JOHN
After that talk with Wendy, Peter found himself anxious to get as far away from the hideout as possible. It wasn't that he was mad at Wendy, quite the opposite in fact! He just couldn't even begin to understand the emotions that were running through his head at the moment making Peter's brain more of a jumbled mess than it usually was. Thus, being quick on his feet Peter declared he and John were to go hunting for the new Lost Boy's animal skin.
However, even as the pair walked through the forest with daggers, slingshots, bows and quivers strapped to their backs Peter still felt a bit nausea. He was good at hiding it, he usually was, but the more he it in the worse it got. John and Peter trekked through the undergrowth without speaking, Peter taking the lead as he followed a pair of animal tracks he didn't recognize. He pushed all his thoughts to the back of his mind, focusing on the matter at hand as intensely as he could.
Checking to make sure John was still following Peter snapped his head in the direction of the Darling boy, who seemed grossly out of his element. The Eternal Boy couldn't help but smile at that, glad he wasn't the only one feeling uncomfortable in their own skin at the moment.
He turned back to the footprints and the boys followed them up a small hill that separated the Lost Boys territory from the Piccanniny Tribe's land. The trailed into the forest along a pair of human footprints perhaps someone Tiger Lily knew... Peter sighed and began scuffing his foot along the tracks to cover them, "It's gone into the Indian's territory. In our treaty it says we can't hunt on their land and that is a part of our deal that I do not wish to break."
The boy skirted off in the opposite direction before taking a flying leap toward a low hanging tree limb and pulling himself up into the branches. He bent down and offered a hand to John so that Peter may pull him up into the trees too. A wicked smirk played on Pan's boyish features. "'Course they never said we couldn't hunt in there trees," said Peter slyly.
