Realizing that Molly and the other Starcatchers are in danger when the sinister being Lord Ombra visits the island and seems to control people through their shadows, Peter and Tinker Bell travel to England to help save the stardust.
Soon after Peter, an orphan, sets sail from England on the ship Never Land, he befriends and assists Molly, a young Starcatcher, whose mission is to guard a trunk of magical stardust from a greedy pirate and the native inhabitants of a remote island.
When shadow creatures search for a secret cache of starstuff that fell to London many centuries ago, Wendy Darling employs the help of Peter Pan and the Lost Boys to protect the Sword of Mercy--the key that unlocks the vault where the starstuff is hidden.
