Somehow, I always seem to find myself in these situations. Its almost as if hurting myself had become such a regular occurrence, the concept of it has manifested in my very being making it impossible to not fall over, or throw myself into dangerous situations. I slowly pulled my head up, releasing that I had just darted off a small ledge, only about 2 feet above the very ground I was now sprawled across. I rolled over and sat up, examining the damage. Thankfully (and miraculously) this tumble would only result in some very painful bruises and minor cuts. I pulled myself up and towards the very ledge I have just thrown my-stupid-self off. I leaned up against it, and found myself sinking to the floor once more as my mind wandered back to the events just passed.

I was no stranger to confusion. It shrouded my every second. From my dreams to my reality. And this new endeavour with Mark just added to it all. Nothing made sense, not that it ever really did, but as of now my mind has become even more fuddled up than before. Images, or maybe they were memories, now flew around my head, making it feel as if my skull was vibrating. I drew my hands to my face, as if to try and stop the vibrations, to try and hold my mind together. But everything feels as if it's falling apart.

Why did he do this to me?

Why did he kiss me?

Why do I feel like everything isn't real?

My mind buzzes with information, of Pirates calling me kin, of Slightly asking me if I'm going back to my uncle, of Mark talking to me of love, of a girl named Melody…

Breathing. I need to breath.

In and out.

In and out.

In…and…out…

Peter's POV

The journey back to Neverland was the same as always. A new bunch of boys, and a new bunch of toys. I turned to behind me to see the new group of boys looking around in awe at the sight of their new home, clutching onto the supplies and goods we were bringing back. I had lugged Felix with the gifts I brought for Sophie, and his face was priceless. Anger, resentment and annoyance. I turned to face forward, stifling my laughter, as we all flew back towards camp. The sun shone threw the trees as we landed back on firm ground. We walked into camp, towards to always roaring fire, and faces of young boys. I could see the new boys crowd closer together, hiding behind a very annoyed looking Felix.

"Felix, hand Slightly the goods you got and take the new recruits and show them where to store the goods, and where they'll be sleeping." I ordered, as we approached Slightly and the other lost boys.

I turned to face the young Slightly, and was meet with an even more fearful and worried face than normal.

"What happened?" I spat, watching the boy shakily approach me.

"Its… I… she…" he began, nervously tripping over his own words.

"SPIT IT OUT." I yelled, bending down to his eye level.

"It's Sophie," he spluttered, "she went missing a while back, and came running through camp crying, and we haven't been able to find her since."

"What do you mean missing? For how long?" I yelled, as my heart pounded against my chest.

"She snuck out last night, we went looking for her, we think she went to the beach front, and then when we next saw her it was when she came running through here." He yelled, tears forming in his eyes.

"Last night? But it's almost nightfall! What way did she go?" I yelled back.

He drew his shaking small arm up, and pointed towards the west of the camp.

"I WANT EVERY BOY OUT LOOKING FOR HER. IS THAT UNDERSTOOD? WE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL WE FIND HER!" I barked.

I could feel the anger surging through my veins as I watched the boys frantically run about the camp, quickly arming themselves before spreading out. Thunder cracked around me, and the heavens opened up and began to pour. We would find her if it was the last thing we did. I would find her.

"Peter!" I heard a voice yell from behind me.

I turned to see Felix, drenched in rain.

"Peter, this rain, it's only going to make it harder to find her, and she could be injured or in danger, this won't help her, I know you care about her but this won't help." He yelled at me.

One of the perks of being Pan, was that Neverland and I were connected, what I felt, she felt. I flew over to Felix, grabbing him by the scruff of his collar.

"Find her and it will stop. That girl could be the only chance of saving Neverland. We need her and her heart safe. Not because I care, but because shes the key to saving Neverland and us with it." I spat.

He nodded and began running off to search for her too. The only reason I was reacting this way was because I needed her heart, I needed the heart of the truest believer to save me, and to save Neverland. That was all.

Sophie's POV

I felt my heartbeat steady, and my breathing grow calmer.

Ok Soph, think. You need to relax.

I looked around, releasing that I must have been running for hours, as the sun was now directly above me, and it was no longer night.

Everything was so confusing, and I had no idea who to trust or what to believe. If what everyone is saying is true, then I can't trust Peter. But Peter had protected me, had healed me, and had taken care of me. I'd even go so far as to say he cared about me, and I care about him. But in all honestly, I had no idea if I could trust those feelings anymore. Everything felt so confusing. It felt as if there was some sort of storm inside my mind.

CRAAACKKKK

I jolted my head up to see a large crack of lightning cut through the dark clouds in the sky. The sky began to pour, and water began pelting down on me. I jumped up, and darted over towards the cover of trees in an attempt to shield myself from the bullets raining from above. Talk about pathetic fallacy.

I made my way through the trees, moving quickly, in hopes of finding somewhere drier to shelter under. As I walked the storm grew worse, making it almost impossible to see in front of myself. My clothes and hair were drenched and I was shivering due to the wetness. I needed to find somewhere to wait out this storm, but I had no idea where I was. It felt as if the trees grew thicker and the forest grew darker.

After what felt like ages, I had reached a clearing.

The trees drew to a stop, and led to a cliff. It made no sense to leave the safety of the trees, and the sound of thunder roared around me, but I was drenched and something felt as if it was calling me towards whatever was beyond the cliff edge. Holding myself, I began walking towards the cliff edge trying to peer over into the distance to see what was there. The rain cascaded down, harder than before as I reached the edge of the cliff and peered out towards what looked like a giant skull shaped cave.

"SOPHIE!"


Having real problems uploading my chapters.

I write everything in word then copy and paste it onto the document editor, but it keep rewriting my documents with the documents script/coding. Any idea why it keeps saving my work this way?
