"You need to teach that stupid shadow of yours the differences between a girl and a boy! Some manners too would be nice!" The first boy screamed. I woke you to the banging of a door and some screaming. Two boys were arguing.
"Don't talk back to me like that!" the second scream back.
"He almost killed her! And while you're keeping us trapped here I'll talk to you however I want." I tried to drown them out; ignore the fact that I didn't know where I was. Because let's face it, if I didn't wake up to my dad screaming at me then I wasn't where I was supposed to be. And they seriously weren't my dad.
"Fine! Just tend to her will you." I heard the door close again and then some shuffling. I turned and look towards the door. It was different, this whole room was different.
"You're awake." I looked towards the end of the bed where the voice had come from and I saw a boy about my age.
"How old are you?" I asked curiosity intriguing my mind.
"You're in a room somewhere you don't know with a boy you've never seen before and you want to know my age? Not where you are or why your here? My age?"
"That's not a number, therefore not an answer. And that's all I want."
"18. Any other question before I replace your bandages?"
"What's your name?"
"I'm a lost Boy. I don't have a name." He came up beside the bed as I sat up and he took my arm unwrapping it from the binding. "The only one of us who as a name is Peter."
"Peter?"
"Peter pan." I laughed at this. Peter Pan from Neverland, ha, as if. What was he trying to pull here?
"What's so funny?"
"It's just that everybody knows Peter Pan isn't real. Seriously what's your name?"
"Oh, you're from my world." He chuckled softly.
"Your world? What?"
"You know the story of Peter Pan. I knew it too you know; and then I learned the truth."
"What truth?" he looked at me while he finished wrapping my arm with the new bandage.
"It's all real. But so much worst." I looked at him questioningly and he stood, gesturing me to follow as he made his way to the door. I got off the bed and followed; once I stood in front of the he opened it to reveal a jungle. I stepped out mouth agape and looked around me.
"Where am I?" I asked turning to face the nameless boy.
"Neverland." He simply answered then walked into the jungle. I quickly followed after him saying of how this was impossible, preposterous, crazy talk! But he didn't listen. Didn't say a word or even look at me; just kept on walking and I kept on following. After a short while we found ourselves at an opening out of the jungle I followed him out and we came up onto a beach which touched a sea that seemed to go on of kilometers on end. I went forward more into the beach while he stayed closer so the jungle entry. After a few moments of bashfulness I turned back towards him and asked again.
"Where am I?"
"Like I said, Neverland." I shook my head.
"But that's impossible! This place doesn't exist!"
"Does it seem to not exist when you're looking at and endless sea?" I felt a tear fall as I looked back towards the sea.
"How do I get back? How do I go home?"
"You don't."
"I'm sorry what?" he sighed as if it pained him to have to tell me this.
"You don't go home."
"But I have to go back! My brothers! I can't just leave them behind and stay here! My dad he'll... I can't leave them with him!"
"You don't get to chose!" he screamed back and startled me. He sighed once again. "Look I'm sorry I didn't mean to scream it's just," He took a breath and looked out at the sea behind me. "there's a reason it's called Neverland," He directed his attention back to me and look straight into my eyes. "once your here, you can never leave." My eyes widen.
"What?"
