A/N You people are the best! Ive hardly had my chapter out. what? Three
days? And already Im having to post a new one! This one I rather like. I
didnt include this in my plans for the story, but it adds something I like
rather, and I think you with too. Its not from anyone youve see thus far,
and I didnt think I would have this character mentioned, but it will put a
little more dimension into my fic and give my characters motives. My
inspiration returned for this chappie, and im very proud of it, so shut up
Lindsay! Alright, thats it.

Chapter6
It was a strange sight that greeted Tiger Lily as she walked out of her long house one morning. A flying figure with another figure draped over one shoulder, and a very very large package wrapped up in a bed sheet hung over the other.
It was all the Piccaninny princess could do to keep from screaming. She ran to her fathers house and drug him out to see the figure.
"Tiger Lily," he admonished in his own language, "You drag me up with the sun just to see some figure flying about in the sky! This is Neverland, things like this happen everyday, my daughter. It is probably just Peter Pan bringing some new Lost Boys. Now don't worry you pretty little head about it and go off. Why don't you pay Peter a visit and meet his new companions?"
By this time, other members of the tribe were venturing out of their long houses and pointing and laughing at the comical figure soaring about in the sky like some very confused bird, and Tiger Lily was hurt.
"But Papa! This is just like my dream!" she cried.
At this, the laughter died away. Dreams were considered very important to the Piccaninny tribe, and those of the Sacred Princess were often considered premonitions.
"What dream is this, daughter?"
"I dreamt that a figure just as that one was flying high above in the sky, as it is now. It was Peter Pan, and he was not bringing more Lost Boys, but two people that I do not know, but I believe they were like me in that they were my size and they were also girls. I also dreamt that with them came the destruction of the plans you are making for me to wed Peter!" she declared.
The entire tribe, save Tiger Lily and her father, let in a collective gasp and started talking at the same time. It was utter pandemonium. The chief of the Piccaninnies raised his voice above the din and shouted.
"Come now, my child. This is nonsense. What I say is law and I say you will wed Peter Pan. Now come with me into my home and we will share the morning meal together." He shouted.
This quieted the frantic Indians some, but it was not enough to quell some of the rumors that continued to float around. The chief let these fly and guided his daughter to his long house with a hand on her back without looking behind.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
In the warmth of the long house, the chief sighed.
"Tiger Lily, are you sure of this dream?"
"Of course Papa!" she shouted, angered from his doubt. "Have I ever lied?"
"No, my sweet daughter, you haven't. But I don't want rumors flying about. This is serious. The only person I trust enough to inherit the weight of managing this tribe is Peter Pan. If he were my son, he could do that. But if your dream is true, this could mean the end of it."
"Oh, Papa, I'm scared. Isn't there anything we can do? I don't want to marry a fish who won't be able to care for the tribe! I want to marry Peter Pan!"
"Of course there is something we can do. There always is. In fact, there is a plan forming in my mind just as we speak." The chief said with a lightening expression.
Tiger Lily spoke eagerly. "What? What is it, Father? What must I do? You need only to say!"
"You shall enjoy this, my daughter. I will let you act above your age. My braves will watch these girls, and you will do all you can to charm the boy. And when I say all, I mean everything you can possibly think of. Forget about honor, dignity, and what is impure. The rules have changed. When my braves have decided which of the girls is the biggest threat, we will eliminate her. And while Peter is in his mourning period, you will strike. You see, my child, all hope is not lost. We will win you Peter Pan yet. But now, Tiger Lily, you just do what you need to prepare your self. I will talk to my braves. You are dismissed." The chief ended his speech with a look of pure smugness.
The princess threw her arms around her father and gave him a kiss on the cheek. She left the long house skipping.
