This story is written in dedication to all those who wish to remain young at heart. Remember, there is nothing wrong with dreaming. However, while you are dreaming, you could be out making your dreams come true.
Prologue:
October 31st, 1981
The night before All Hollow's Eve was a clear, crisp night. A full moon hung over the small wizarding village of Godric's Hollow. Stars of all shapes and sizes danced and sang with the night winds.
In one small cottage, in the second floor, a window stood open. Sitting in a rocking chair, a small bundle clasped to her, a young mother sang a sweet lullaby, "The second star to the right, shines in the night for you, to tell you that the dreams you have, really can come true," she looked up into the sky, her eyes shining with tears, "the second star to the right, shines with a light that's rare, and if it's Never Land you need, it's light will lead you there,"
The crashing sound below was not completely unexpected. The shout from her husband to run with Harry was even less so. She had been expecting this to happen ever since they had gone into hiding. She had known that they could not hide forever. It was now time to face her destiny, and hope that a certain someone, who was likely far away at the moment, would remember a promise he had made to them, only yesterday.
A star high in the sky twinkled fiercely as a dark man burst into the nursery. It seemed to watch as a green light filled the room and then vanished completely, as though it had never been. The sound of wicked laughter permeated from the small house. A sickly sound that would fill any who happened to see with a disgust only known to most adults. A second time, the green light lit up the room, but this time it went strangely wrong, or well, right, some might say. Instead of going forward, like it was supposed to, it rebounded backward and the same voice that had laughed mere moments ago, now screamed in pure agony. An odd gray smoke flew from the window and away as fast the wind could carry it.
The small baby that had just been held in his mother's arms, now lay near her dead body, uncomprehending of anything that had just happened. In place of the evil green light was now a small, pretty, twinkling, white light. One that hovered just above the baby boy's little face. The twinkling light dispersed to reveal a tiny little woman, with wings fluttering about on her back. In her little hands she held a large (well, in relation to her) rolled-up parchment, tied with a red ribbon. Carefully, she tucked it into the pocket of the soft blanket wrapped around the child. Sounds of multiple footsteps reached the little woman's ears and she knew she had to hurry away. Quickly, she gently kissed the small baby's cheek before lighting out of there in a flash. No one would ever know she had been there.
AN: Yes, a new crossover from me. I do believe the crossover elements are pretty plain in this. The song is a lullaby, one that Lily was singing to Harry. I do not own it, Disney does, it is called (for those of you who have never seen Peter Pan) "The Second Star to the Right". I am not violating any rules, as it was actual dialogue, Lily was singing it. And yes, she would have seen the movie Peter Pan at the point in time considering it was made in 1953. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this new fiction.
