Power.

Power is the downfall of all humanity. That is a fact that has been proven countless times throughout history. It takes and corrupts the best parts of people, whether they already evil before or not.

I don't know if Hook was good before he set his sights on the throne of Neverland. All I know is that he was determined to do whatever he could to get as much power as he could, and because of that, I lost three years with my family and friends. My love and I were separated for so long, almost too long.

Greed is a side effect of power. Hook wanted power so much that whatever he did get wasn't enough. The control he had over the crew of the Jolly Roger made him crave more. The more he longed for power, the more things escaped his notice which led to his downfall and mine and Neverland's freedom.

Love is destroyed by greed and power. Hook had a chance with the beautiful Red Jessica till he let his demand for control get the better of him and he lost her.

I know more about love than most people. There are many types of love. There is the love shared between families. I'm the youngest of twelve and the only girl as well. With my parents, the king and queen of Romalia, my older brothers, my sisters in law, my nephews and nieces, my cousins, my aunts and uncles, and my grandparents I know more about the love between family than I care to admit.

There is the love between friends. I have had some problems with this. I lost one of my best friends to magic when I was young. She was recovered in the three year gap that I was gone. My other best friend was there through everything. Flara has saved my life more times than I can count. Flynn has done the same, as have Tigerlily and the other Indians. The mermaids saved me from a fate worse than death.

There is the love you bestow upon your animals. As a princess, I have many. Destiny is my flying Pegasus. She is a beautiful silvery white with long graceful wings. Rebellia is my black tiger, a cat with beautiful grey eyes that is more protective than some of my brothers. Spunky is a squirrel I rescued from falling out of a tree when he was young. Iago I found on the shores of Romalia, my father's kingdom. He claims to be from some desert kingdom but left when the princess married his friend. He needed adventure and didn't want the lovey dovey mess surrounding him. He took off with the groom's father and ended up on a ship sailing the sea. The ship wrecked and he almost drowned. I insulted him a few times when we met and he's been around fighting Spunky for the spot on my right shoulder ever since. I also have several other horses, a few cats, and technically a crocodile since Tic Toc Croc won't stop becoming my protective guard.

There is the love between boyfriends and girlfriends. This love is tricky. You know it can't last because your soul in not in tune with them yet you fall in love with them anyway. It ends and pain and you know that, yet you still do it anyway.

Then there is the love between a fated pair. This is better known as soul mate love. This is the love that causes you to stop aging, to become immortal and live forever with the one you love. I was not expecting my soul mate to be mine and I almost lost him because of Hook. No one ever believed he could fall in love and the fact that he did, deep enough that when I almost died and our separation started he fled Neverland to grieve. I saved him from grief and he saved me from loneliness and made me realize that I don't have to be perfect. I just have to be me.

I am Princess Brynnalynn Natalia Agrigosa, the daughter of King Richard and Queen Marabella, princess of Romalia, the granddaughter of two members of the Council of Seven, the heir of Calacari, the prophecy girl, and this is the story of how I fell in love with Peter Pan.

Hey everyone! I want to apologize for not posting anything for about a year and a half. I had a major case of writer's block, my dad lost his job, and I had to start seeing a school counselor for some serious stuff going on at home that can't be resolved in order to protect my brother's mental state. I haven't forgotten this story, I just haven't had time.

When I was going back over, I noticed how drastically my writing style has changed and I can't continue the story without it being in my more current style. My solution is to rewrite the entire thing. This next week I am going to go through the rest of the story and redo everything that need be. The chapters are going to be longer, I may add a few things, but the main basis of the story is not going to change. The meeting is still going to take place; I'm just changing some of the conversation, maybe adding more to it.

I'll see you as soon as I redo the next chapter. I'm at my best friend's house. She broke her right wrist in three places when we went roller skating this past Sunday, July 10, and I have been helping her out. I am going back to my place tomorrow and since I am normally in my room ignoring the craziness that is my family, I will have a lot of time to be doing this.

With love, an I'm sorry, and a see you soon,
