This is my first fic I've posted on this website. I've got many more I plan to post but those are still WIP.

This is just something I thought about and added onto, really liking the idea. Even if you end up hating the story, I'm going to continue until the very end, which (spoiler!) gets kind of dark if you think about it. Disney verse.

Please leave a review, I like reading and editing my stories to criticism. Thanks to summer having started for me, I'll update (hopefully...) often, but sometimes, other things might get in the way. (Writer's Block...) I hope you enjoy!

(P.S, I don't do beta's either. Grammatical errors bug me, so I usually go over a chapter a lot just to be sure spell check didn't miss anything.)

The ocean whispered and stirred as the sun rose on a beautiful morning. Scarlet streams of sunlight spilled from the heavens onto the forests below, giving them a living hue. Birds and animals blinked in the glow and awoke to start the day anew.

She blinked. The tide tugged at her feet. Trying to push herself up, the girl stood for a heartbeat on wobbly legs before collapsing into the sand. She dragged herself further up shore until she found something sturdy to lean on. Pushing up with her hands, the girl found the strength to stand fully upright.

Taking in her surroundings, the girl's blue eyes widened in innocent awe. She had never seen anything so beautiful. Never heard anything so mysterious. She kept her mind on her first impression of the world, as if those memories would disappear if she let them go.

Finally, she decided to delve into the forest ahead of her. Though the sun had risen, the darkness of the woods and strange exotic noises pricked at the girl's senses of fear. Flipping her snowy white hair from her face, she took her first steps into the wild.

The ominous feeling of fear soon subsided when the girl realized the darkness wasn't really that terrifying. In fact, it had faded out into a soothing amber glow, like a thousand fireflies were lighting up the canopy above.

The plants were green and fertile, rich with life. Some thickets were even colored with auburn, golden, violet, and autumnal colors, balancing the wild animosity of the jungle with a tame forest of woodland animals. Sometimes, flickering through the trees, she thought she saw tiny balls of light, like the stars lived among the wood.


Today is a new day! He thought with energy exploding inside. Today, for some reason, felt better than any other day. And that's saying a lot! He'd lived through a lot of days! Rocketing through the air, wheeling through the clouds, the boy gave a sharp whistle of excitement. Anything could happen!

From his altitude, he had an amazing view of the tropical-slash-deciduous landscape that was his home. His eyes sparkled with pride. The island had awoken.

The waters roared, the animals howled, and the winds raced with life. Even the 'Skull Rock' seemed less decrepit. What new adventures did Fate have in store?

He cartwheeled down until his hands skimmed the sea. Though they roiled and churned with thunderous vigor, the boy could see almost to the bottom of the massive ocean. Hundreds of colorful fish schools swam here and there; a shark or two side-winded easily through the oceanic pressure and if he squinted, he thought he could see a brave, silver mermaid near the floor, venturing further than he had seen any of them go before.

Following a current with his hand still submerged, he jackknifed to the left, withdrawing his hand and making straight for the coast. Narrowing his eyes against the wind, he lifted off of the edge of the water just in time before he crashed into the shore.

The air had changed. Instead of clear, salty ocean air, the air here was dense with forest saturation. Maybe I should head for the amber forests instead... he pondered, dodging trees without looking. Turning abruptly, he made his way to his new destination. He knew this place like the back of his hand. He had had plenty of time to memorize distinct locations, landmarks, and great places to have all sorts of fun and misadventures.

Crossing the border between the jungle and the woodlands, the boy halted. Stopping only for a moment to catch a glimpse of it, he darted behind a birch tree. His heart raced a million times a minute. Taking a few breaths to calm down, he chanced a look.

Turning from the tree, there, standing in a clearing dappled with sunlight was something he had never seen before. No, someone he'd never seen before. It was different than his friends back at the hideout. It wasn't a boy, that was for sure. It was a girl. She had peachy tan skin, long, cascading white hair and-

He spun back around. Wincing as though he'd been blinded, he blinked. She had startling blue eyes. Another realization hit him. Someone else, someone different, was on the island.
