AN: Hey guys! I've wondered... Has the quality of my writing sucked lately? 'Cause I'm thinking of getting a Beta... Thanks!


Sabrina's POV

After everybody calmed down, we continued what we were doing before. I looked at the two remaining books and I decided on the one by Mother Dove, but as soon as I began to open the cover, the all-too-familiar tingle of magic coursed through my body.

'I better not read this for too long... Who knows what'll happen...' I realized.

The first page was an intricate design of the island that had all the places labeled. It showed Captain Hook's pirate ship, Mermaid's cove, and Dead man's cave. The pictures literally danced around on the page, as if it was alive...

'Probably the magic doing that...' I reasoned with a shudder. Magic gives me the willies.

It read:

" The island of Neverland is a mystical and magical place. Fairies, Lost Boys, pirates, little animals, Indians and mermaids all call this place home. There is also the captain of the Lost Boys; his name is Peter Pan. Although the island is healthy, we ..."

At this point, I had a feeling that this was just an introduction, so I skipped to the Index, being the impatient Grimm I am. As I skimmed the titles, I adjusted myself in the sofa several times, trying to find a comfortable spot.

'What can I say? I'm not a sitting person. Running from lunatics all the time causes that.'

I finally got to the chapter that I needed and began to read.

"Peter Pan has red hair, green eyes, and has freckles splattered all over his face. He is as old as the island itself, yet has the appearance of a boy. The Lost Boys look up and respect him as their leader of mischief. The group roams all over the island, playing games, hiding treasure, and their favorite: fighting Captain Hook (see pg. 405). They have as many enemies as allies, lived throughout many quarrels, yet never age physically or mentally. The Lost Boys seem healthy and have their past memories, despite the magic of the pixie dust tree. However, I believe that unlike most Everafters, Peter cannot recollect anything that happened the year before in order to subconsciously retain his youth. Although, the fact that he is as old as island does give me reason to suspect that his health, happiness, and state of mind affect the island's health as well..."

'Wait, WHAT? How is that possible? How could that be? All Everafters are supposed to stay young AND keep their memories. And how can a kid's emotions be tied to an island?...Why am I trusting this? I better ask Granny...'

I got up from the couch and rushed to Granny's side. "Granny! Look what I found! Could this possibly be true?" I asked confusedly.

"Libeling, hold on there, let's calm down. What are you saying, dear? I don't have the best of hearing, you know." she said slowly.

"Granny" I said "I think I found some really important information. Could you take a look at it?"

She took the book from me and read the paragraph, but her face showed no sign of understanding.

"I don't know, dear. This very unfamiliar to me... None of the Grimm journals I ever read say this...Maybe you could ask Mr. Canis; he probably knows more than I do." she replied.

"Okay, Granny. Thanks." I said as I climbed up the stairs.

'This is strange. How

As soon as I knocked, Mr. Canis opened the door.

"Child, Red and I are about to meditate. Please come back later." he said gruffly, while leaning on the handle.

"Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Canis, but I have a very important question to ask you." I replied firmly.

"Fine. But make it quick."

"This passage," I said, pointing to the page " confuses me and Granny said you'd understand it. So, could you explain it to me?"

He gingerly took the book and took in its context. Unlike Granny, his face showed slight signs of comprehension.

"Child, the book is explaining that Peter has different traits than normal Everafters."

'This is getting me nowhere...'

I stared at him blankly. "But... how? Aren't all of Everafters main... abilities*... the same?"

Mr. Canis sighed "No child,they are not, but I'm afraid I cannot be of much help from here. I only know so much about this topic. But if I were you, I'd look at Peter's biography."

"Alright, thanks anyway Mr. Canis."

He grunted in reply before shutting the door.

"Let's get looking for that biography..." I mumbled to myself.

'Yay. I have spent five hours looking for info, and have found nothing. Ugh... I wish I could just get somebody to give me the answers... Wait, I'm so stupid! Peter is living under our roof! Why don't I ask him? He should know about this "Mother Dove" character... Why didn't I think of it sooner!' I thought as I rushed to find the flying boy.


AN: *abilities - The Everafters' ability to live forever unless they are murdered, stay young, etc...

Be proud of me! I stopped procrastinating! Yay!
