Dear Brianna,
It's going to be hard leaving this place. I'll be leaving to Earth in only a couple days, but I've grown attached to this new world. Ah, oh well. Who knows, maybe I'll be able to meet Wendy in my next life.
Let's continue on with the story anyway.
After Boss realized he lost the picture, he knew from that moment he was doomed. After listening in on some one-on-one talks with John and Boss, I realized more and more what the significance of that picture is. To make it brief and more…age appropriate, that picture contained the coordinates of the portal that is the entrance point into NeverLand.
Yes, everyone always thinks that Neverland Is right above our heads, but that's just how it seems. In reality, you have to be in a specific place high up in the atmosphere for the portal to even become visible to the human eye. The reason it's so secure is because they don't want humans to accidently stumble upon the portal, therefore exposing NeverLand. However, to leave Neverland, it's quite the opposite. In fact, as Boss did when leaving to Earth, the exit to leave Neverland is not hidden at all.
Weird, isn't it?
So now let us now proceed from Peter's perspective.
-Flashback-
"PETER PETER PETER PETER," a sharp voice shrilled from outside the Captain's Cabin. An attempt to open the door could be heard easily from inside the cabin, followed by more yelling "LET ME IN PETER!" A long, deep growl rose from within Peter as he finally staggered to the door in a sleepy state. He unlocked the door and swung it open, meeting the eyes of a bloodshot fairy.
"What is it?" He murmured to Tink as she flew in at the speed of light. "It better be good…" He added under his breath as he turned around to face the controls.
"I found something! Something big! Something huge! Something-"
"Just spit it out!" He said angrily.
"Just look." She yelped, flying right in front of his face. He was about to swat her away, but she held up the photo that Brandon had given them along with the other useful gifts.
"What about it?" He said, taking it in his hands.
"Flip it, smart one." She smirked with delight. He turned the picture around to find small, messy handwriting in the top right corner.
"What the heck…" Peter brought the photo closer to see that in the corner, was some messily scribbled coordinates. "These are the coordinates to fly into Never Land!"
"How do you know that? What are you, some navigator now?" Tink questioned as she came to Peter's side to get a look. He ignored Tink for a second and ran over to the control deck.
"When someone from NeverLand goes to Earth for the first time, you don't go unprepared." Peter said, light returning to his face. "Before leaving, you have to go figure out the coordinates to get back into NeverLand from Earth. All the navigators or just anyone who has operated a boat in NeverLand know that. If you don't know the coordinates to the portal, you're going to be stuck in Earth forever until someone goes and rescues you." He ran outside and grabbed the map that Brandon had also supplied him.
"Whoever kidnapped Wendy must have made a trip to Earth. And that's where there probably are right now!" He raced to the controls and started to set course for Earth.
"Wait just a minute…this does not make any sense." Tink argued flying towards Peter. "You realize he probably memorized the coordinates, don't you? I mean if he has some association with Hook he must be some first-class navigator!"
"Ah Tink, you have a lot to learn." Peter laughed, eyes fixed on the screen in front of him.
"This guy knows nothing about navigation or else he wouldn't have written down the coordinates in the first place! Also, Brandon informed me that he was completely clueless when gathering his crew together. Honestly, he took the first couple guys he saw on the deck, gave them a whole lot of cash, and told them to get on the boat. The guys he ended up taking were just some losers walking around in the middle of the night."Peter finally turned away from the controls and sat back down in his chair.
"If this man had known what he was doing, he would have memorized those coordinates. Writing them down puts the actual coordinates at risk of being discovered by some human on Earth."
"But what if someone on the crew knows the coordinates?" Tink retorted. "You can't be so sure that he's completely clueless."
"You're right, I'm not positive. But I am positive that he must have visited Earth sometime on his…travels. It's worth a shot going there to see if we can stumble upon some sort of lead." Finally, Peter closed his eyes and put his feet up. "Look Tink, it's the best we have right now. Might as well make use of It."
"Fine, fine. Whatever. It's your call, Captain." She grumbled while mock-saluting him. But by that time, Peter had fallen into a deep slumber, indicated by the loud snores that were coming from him.
"How the hell does Wendy live with that every night?" Tink thought out loud, with a smile on her face. She stole one more look at Peter, and then flew out the cabin without making a sound.
-End Flashback-
I was pretty excited at this point, since Peter was finally coming close to confronting Boss. But I was still terribly worried about Wendy, considering the fact she is all by herself on Earth. Oh well, I'll tell you about her part of the story in the next letter.
Talk to you later, Brianna
Sincerely,
Bradford
