I opened up my eyes. We were on some sort of island, I think. There was a waterfall near us, trees surrounding us. Peter put me down. I reached down and touched the soft grass under me.

"I can't believe I'm finally out of that orphanage! I never knew the grass was so green." I sad, happily.

Peter watched me, confused, "How long have you been there, anyways? You sound like you've never been outside before."Tink looked confused as well.

'It's true. I've never been outside of the orphanage before. It's like a dungeon, only one way in and out. There were always guards placed next to the exit, so that made it impossible for us to leave. I've lived... almost all my life there. I..." I suddenly stopped, remembering. Why was I telling this strange boy about my life?

"Anyways, everything will probably be new to me, since all I know about the outside world is what I've read in books." I shook my head, "I can't believe this is really happening."

As I glanced back at Peter, I saw the corner of his lips curving up. Tink was apparently arguing with him on whatever he was thinking.

"Does this mean, you can stay here forever?! " He flew up, laughing. I gasped, as he grabbed my hand.

"Come! I want you to meet the lost boys! You can be their new mother!"

"Mother?" Ok, this boy was starting to creep me out. Not that I've ever talked to a boy before. Maybe this was how they all acted.

Tink was still arguing with Peter, when I heard a girl's voice cry out," Peter!"

"Mermaids!" I stuttered out, amazed. They were beautiful, with blond hair and blue eyes. I didn't get close. Mermaids were considered to be dark, evil, and selfish. But, they didn't look at all evil, unless they were disguised.

"Weve missed you so much, Peter!" The mermaids chanted with their perfect grinned, showing off to them.

"Wait till you see my new trick!' he said, flying up proudly. I crossed my arms, looking away. Was this how all boys acted?

"Who is this, Peter?"One of the mermaids said, pointing at me. The other mermaids didn't look happy.

"This is ...uh..."

"Honour. " I added.

"Yeah! She's gonna stay with us forever!"

"Forever!' The mermaids shrieked. One of the mermaids yanked my foot down, making me gasp as I fell into the water.

"Don't be shy, little girl! We just want you to drown!' The mermaids chanted, pulling me under. I tried to break free, but the mermaids kept on pushing me under.

"Peter!"I screamed, hearing him laugh. He was just going to see me drown without lifting a finger. I grabbed the mermaid hair, yanking it.

"Oww!'

"You demon!"

"My hair!" They screamed, letting go of me. Grabbing onto their hair, I got back up on land. As I let go, I noticed a part of the mermaid's hair had ripped off, leaving them with a few bald spots. The mermaid cried out, angrily before leaving, 'You'll pay for this!'

Peter kept on laughing, so with one of my hands I threw a shell had found on the ground.

'Ouch!' he said as the shell hit him on the nose. After that I felt much better.
