Pan snapped his eyes open after her dream ended. He'd experienced the dream as if he were the girl, but he knew that the darkness and the feeling of flying were because of his shadow bringing her to Neverland. Her magic must have called upon his shadow to bring her here without her even realizing it.

So she didn't come here as a threat, he concluded, but that doesn't mean she can't be one. After all, she's the only girl in a camp full of young boys. Eventually she would spark the attention of some of the lost boys and they would notice her in a different way. Come to think of it, none of them had even been in the presence of another girl in decades. If she caused this effect they would only grow weaker, and their silly crushes would distract them from their work. I can not allow this to happen, he thought.

But her magic, it makes her so interesting. It's so powerful, yet it's so fresh and unused. It's almost like she isn't even aware of it. I'll test her, I decide, when she wakes. I will allow her to rest comfortably as of now, but as soon as she wakes she will be caged.

Walking out of the tent Pan decided to pay his shadow a visit, thinking that perhaps he would give him some answers. In an instant he flashed hisself to the Dark Hollow, and waited for the shadow.

"Peter, it's been awhile since you last visited me. " The shadow's voice sounds behind him.

He turned around and gave a short nod. "Shadow, yes, I do believe it's been awhile. I assume you are aware of why I am here?" He asked.

The shadow answered him immediately, "Of course, you are wondering about the girl, let me think...Bella was her name."

Bella, I think. A lovely name. A girly name. "She's a girl, she won't last long out here. She is weak and she will make my boys weak." He stated angrily. "It was pointless to bring her here."

"Ah, but you see Pan, there is a reason I brought her. I think you will find her very...valuable." He replied. Peter Pan assumed this was as good of an answer as he was going to get, but still pressed.

"You mean her magic? Is she even aware of her power? And how did she even obtain it, I looked in her dream and her parents didn't have any magic in them. They were normal, commoners." Pan shook his head, none of this was making sense.

His shadow paused momentarily before replying, "You will have all your answers in good time. But she is adopted, that much I will tell you. The rest you will have to figure out for yourself." Without any further explanation, the shadow turned and flew away.

He narrowed his eyes, unsatisfied with the reply. He decided to walk back to camp, it would give him time to think over the little information his shadow had given him.

So the girl, her name was Bella. She knew of her magic, but she was unaware of the extent of its power. She was adopted, but who were her real parents? That would have explained so much, if they were his enemies or not would play a big factor in him trusting Bella. She must come from a very rich bloodline if her magic was that powerful. The only people that had that kind of power were himself, the Dark One, and the evil queen, and he would know if Bella was related to any of them. The Shadow said he would find her very useful, but at what price?

"I don't have time to worry about my boys crushing on a weak girl, and she's just one more mouth to feed! There's no way she can learn to hunt or take care of herself. She's just going to be a bother and a distraction to the real problems we will face!" Pan angrily shouted out loud. There was nobody around to witness his little rant, but the yelling soothed him and helped calm his nerves.

Then again, he thought, something tells me that there's more to her than a gentle face. Perhaps she has some fire in her after all.

I'll keep her around, he decided. If she can handle putting in her part and doesn't seem to be too much of a distraction I will allow her to be the first Lost Girl. If she can't prove herself, then I will keep her locked up until I find a reason to use her.

Satisfied with his decision, Peter Pan walked into camp to see everyone busy. Some boys were skinning their kills while others were cooking them and preparing for tonight's party. He smiled at see everyone in good spirits, perhaps having a girl around wouldn't be so bad after all.
