My Long Awaited Adventure

by LadyMoonCrystal

All her life Cat wanted to do something with her life. Brought up in a boring town, she only had books to feed her imagination and her need for excitement. But when Peter shows up at her window begging for her help; how can she refuse such an adventure? An OC with a bit of bad language, rated T.

1. Chapter 1

Prologue:

As a child, my mother read to me the adventures of Wendy Darling in Neverland and with Peter Pan. That's where my love of stories began. Little did I know that her adventures,weren't just stories after all…

Chapter 1:

"One more! One more story Cat!"my cousin begged after I closed the book. I had just read to her Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

"Ok,ok!" I exclaimed, walking towards my bookshelf. I brushed my fingers over the spines of the many books I had acquired over the years.

"How about...Peter Pan?" I asked.

"Any!" The infant screeched,jumping up and down on her bed. "As long as you get to read it to me!"

I had developed quite a reputation for my reading skills in the family. My granddad had once said I could send any child to sleep in minutes,just by reading to them.

I opened the old book to the first page and blew off the dust which had developed on the fragile pages. It had been years since I had even opened this book. I began reading and then,within minutes the child was fast asleep.

I exhaled,exhausted from having to look after Rose for the evening. I stood up and walked towards the door,still carrying the old book. I made my way to my room and sprawled myself all over my bed. How much longer would I have to babysit kids until I could raise enough money to go on an adventure of my own? Ever since I was young, I wanted something special to happen to me. I too wanted to fall down a rabbit hole and find myself in wonderland; to get stuck in a tornado and then wake up in Oz!

I walked towards my open patio window and stared into the night sky. The stars were oh so bright! There was not a single cloud in the sky and I felt as if I could reach out and grab every bird or plane which passed by!

And then, something reached out and grabbed me.

Thanks for reading my fist fan-fic thingy ever! I've got a lot of spare time at the moment so I'm hoping to be getting a chapter out like every other day or so.(Note that these chapters are gonna be a bit short) I wanted to ask you all a question-if that's ok-and I'll mention the best answers in the next chapter! The question is: What is your all time favourite book? Mine would probably be the Harry Potter series,mainly because it was the first book that got me interested in novels,fiction etc. Anyway,thanks again for reading my fic and stay tuned for the next chapter! xxx
