Peter then left to get his family breakfast. Knowing that it was a father's
duty he didn't even tell anyone when he'd left. But Tinkerbell told Moria
to be sure she didn't worry.
The boys woke up on their own terms and Moria sat in Peter's chair. "Do you boys want to hear a story?" she asked.
"Is it better than fathers?" Pib asked.
"Fathers stories are quite dull." Dodge said. Moria smiled.
"Yes, my story is much better than fathers." She said.
"Yeah!" the boys shouted with joy as they sat in front of Moria.
"Once upon a time there lived a boy." She began.
"A lost boy?" Stix asked.
"No." she replied with a smile.
"What kind of boy mother?" Pib asked with intrigue. She laughed.
"A silent boy." She whispered.
"Oh..." Pib said with a smile knowing that she'd just told him to be quiet.
"This boy thought he had it all. He could do whatever he wanted when ever wanted with who ever he wanted." She continued. "But this was not true. For he had no family, no home and only one friend."
"What was his name mother?" Mags asked.
"Huckleberry Finn."
"What a strange name." Mags said.
"Who was his friend?" Whirly asked.
"Tom Sawyer." Moria stated.
"I like that name." Whirly said. Moria smiled.
"Do you wish to hear of their adventures or talk about their names?" she asked.
"Oh adventure please." The boys said realizing they were interrupting the story.
"Now Huck Fin was a wandering boy. He lived on the Mississippi and rode on rafts and stole from steamboats. He was not the model child all mothers hoped for. But he'd never known his mother." She said.
"How horrid." Dodge spat.
"I sure couldn't live without knowing you mother." Stix said. Moria smiled.
"Aye... and I could not live without knowing you." She said.
"But Huck... Huck had a father."
"Like us?"
"No... your father is very kind and caring. Huck's father was mean and nasty. Always hurting Huck and stealing from him."
"Like Hook?" Mags said with excitement.
"Yes... just like Hook." She said.
