A/n: Yay! Another chapter! I haven't updated in a while, but I got some good news! March 1st was National Pigs Day! It's a real holiday, it's on my calendar! ( Yes, I have a pig calendar, why do you ask?) So I'd like to wish you all a belated (because everything's better belated) National Pigs Day by giving you this chapter! And thanks to all my reviewers, me wuvs you!

Disclaimer: I don't own Peter Pan, Neverland, the Lost boys, grilled cheese sandwiches (although they aren't in my story) and pretty trees and chirping birds.

"Well, boys–and Feather, the mermaids were of no help," Peter announced to the lost boys when they arrived at the tree house, "And there was no one at the Indian's camp."

Julie winced.

"So we're stuck?" Bark asked hesitantly.

Peter nodded. "There's no place else to look. Not unless Julie knows anything, and that's doubtful..."

Julie's cheeks turned a deep shade of red as she looked away. "I, um, don't know...anything."

"See? She doesn't know anything, her brain is empty"

"Hey!"

"Do you know something?"

Julie stood in silence. If she told them about the Indians, then that would just be...just be...Oh, I need an excuse...

"Looks like you don't."

"What about–," Julie started, trying to think of something. Anything.

Peter stared at Julie "What about what?"

"What about...about...the pirates We never asked the pirates"

"Pirates? Pirates haven't been around for ages, they all left after Hook, except for that clout Smee, but he's probably dead by now."

"Well, we can at least look around there, maybe, we'll um...find...uh...stuff," Julie said hesitantly, thinking about the Indians.

Chip walked over to Julie. "She's right, there could be something, I'll go with her."

Peter pouted, "Fine. If Julie wants to take you, you both can leave, but don't expect her to come back."

"Peter, you're so mean!" Julie shouted, hurt.

Peter merely ignored her.

Feather glared at Peter and took a step closer to Julie and looked away.

For some reason, this caused Peter to soften. "Well, I guess you can come back, just don't say I didn't tell you there would be nothing there." He looked over at the other lost boys, "You guys can go to if you wanna, but don't expect me to tag along!"

"Thanks Peter!" the remaining lost boys said in unison, and ran up to Julie.

"Bye Peter, see you later," Julie said happily as she exited the tree house.

Peter grumbled and turned away.

Julie sighed with relief when she stepped outside. "Peter can be so annoying!" Here, have some dust."

The boys and Feather eagerly accepted the dust and sprinkled it on themselves. They took each others hands and lifted into the air.

Julie giggled slightly as she sprinkled her dust on top of her head, "To the pirates!"

ppp

Meanwhile, Peter sat grumpily on a hammock. Ever since that 'Julie' came the lost boys have been a lot less attached to him, they just follow her around, even Feather.

Peter looked up at the treetops. Streams of sunlight strained through the ceiling and landed gently on Peter's face, but suddenly as something, possibly a cloud, caused them to disappear. He sighed and closed his eyes. She had already had come to be part of this place. Anyways, Peter thought, the boys and Feather have grown to like her and I want them, especially Feather, to be happy.

The treetops rustled peacefully in the wind, and all was silent except for the occasional chirp of a bird. Peter slowly drifted of to sleep, his last thought before he fell into slumber was that something wasn't quite right.

ppp

"What's wrong with Feather?" Julie asked as she and the lost boys flew over the forests Neverland. "She looks sick!"

Feather was shivering and shaking at Julie's side, her face had gone pale and her expression had changed into a deep, frightened, frown.

"I dunno, maybe..." Mitt began.

"We should land," Mitt's twin counterpart, Bark finished.

"Would you like that Feather?" Julie asked Feather softly.

Feather nodded her head vigorously.

"Let's land here, I think I see a clearing."

Julie, Feather, and the lost boys drifted down and landed softly in a grass-covered patch of land in the middle of the forest. The sun beamed brightly overhead, bright colored birds were chirping and whistling, and the trees rustled peacefully in the breeze, but Feather moaned as if the sky was a darkened black and the birds were vultures or crows. She winced as a beam of sunlight touched her face.

"Is the sun bothering you, Feather?" Julie asked Feather gently.

Firmly Feather shook her head 'no' and sat on the ground.

"Me and Mitt can watch Feather while you and the lost boys go to the pirates, Julie," Bark volunteered, "Or if Feather wants, we'll take her back to the tree house."

"Thanks Bark, Feather, do you want to go back home?"

Feather's eyes brightened.

"I guess this means yes, you two, take good care of her!"

"Don't worry, we will!" Bark and Mitt said in unison, and accepted a fistful of pixie dust from Julie. They each took one of Feather's hands and lifted off into the air.

"Well," Julie said, looking at the remaining lost boys, "We're off to the pirates!"


Sooo sorry I haven't added a chapter in forever, it's just that school is evil. Reeaaaly evil. And word perfect puts red lines under the last word in my sentences if it's in quotes and has an exclamation point under it. Anyways, hope you enjoyed, and review, review, review (I'll keep on saying this if you don't) review, review...
