The Legend of the Lost Girl
Chapter 3: Questions and an Arrival
Both children, one with all his first teeth and the other as much as in innocence but with only one or two of her first teeth left. Stirred in their warm blanket of sleep, they sat up and silently knew that it must be in the noon hours. For the croc clock ticked no more.
Wendy smiled at Peter before looking around the underground home it was the same as always except the lost boys' tree entrances to the home were plugged up leaving only Peter and Wendy's tree to enter threw. Realization dawned on Wendy.
"Peter?" she asked turning once more to him.
"Yes Wendy?" Peter replied as he left the warmth of the bed and stretched his arms high over head.
"I thought you were going to put my house high in the trees and live there?" said Wendy.
"Well, yes but what I had not realized is that in the pirate and redskin fight the house was destroyed," replied Peter in a matter-of-fact voice.
"Oh yes, and why did you come to my house? It was still winter, not spring? You did not forget me, you remembered me sooner!" asked Wendy.
"I wanted to hear a story, I wanted to see if you were real. I couldn't forget you Wendy, I just couldn't when I pretended to have a dinner guest, and you were she. But I couldn't remember if you were but my imagination or real, so I went to see you," replied Peter.
Wendy didn't want to press him more so she put on a large smile, "And what do we do today?"
"Wait for the faeries to come and get us, to walk to the bay and pay our respects," said Peter as he nimbly walked around the house before he pulled out his pipes to play a happy tune.
Wendy looked on in awe, so much for a faerie they did not like! There had to be a reason and Wendy had to know, "Peter why so much for one faerie that the others did not like?"
"I don't know Wendy. Tinker Bell said that when the lost girl left that the life of Neverland rested solely on my shoulders, or something like that," said Peter before he went back to his pipes.
That was basically how their day went by, but it seemed the louder Peter played the faster the day went by. It wasn't long before dusk when Wendy's wolf cub came tumbling into the hide out and not long after that came Tinker Bell to retrieve the children for the march to the bay.
Peter shot out of his tree with ease, but Wendy struggled a bit going up her tree, being only slightly out of practice. Eventually Wendy tumbled ungracefully out of the tree and onto the ground. Peter laughed at this sight, but stopped when Wendy shot him a perturbed glare. The wolf cub tugged at Wendy as if to help her stand, she then received a thank you pat on her head.
Movement on the ground caught the attention of both Wendy and Peter; every last faerie in Never Neverland was walking in the direction of the bay. The children looked stunned a few faeries looked unhappy at Wendy, she was not part of Neverland in their eyes and did not belong in the percussion. Tinker Bell forced Wendy's hand in Peter's too show she was a guest of their Prince to be treated like their lost Princess.
As the faerie line came to an end Tinker Bell landed softly on the ground and joined the march Wendy and Peter fell in line after her trailed by the wolf cub. The walk was quiet as to be presumed and although Peter looked sad and mournful the weather of Neverland stayed preferable, as if to say it was all another game, the beginning of games Peter could not forget.
As the bay came into view a shrill cry broke the silence, "I said hurry I want this mission built in no more then two days!"
A frightened cry of the wolf was heard as it howled to the raising moon. It was followed by a chorus of every wolf in Neverland including the cub at the end of the march.
"M'Lady, M'Lady the wolves will attack us before we finish the mission!" cried a young girl running towards the woman, who had first broke the silence. Peter and Wendy now stopped at the edge of the forest with the faeries it were obvious that the forest had already receded its lines. They could see adult and few children running every which way to build houses.
The commanding lady laughed at the crying girl and in one quick motion sliced the girls head off with her sword and licked it clean, "You fool!" she laughed, "The wolves are warning that twit! Lost the princess of Never Neverland. Now build we hunt her in a mere few days! Hear me Lost! Hear me, I knew you couldn't stay away from your kingdom forever! No doubt you'll enlist the help of the child prince, since Hook seems no more! I believe boys have a foul taste but I'm sure you'll enjoy his blood before I drink your own with supper!" a menacing laugh broke out and was heard through out the whole of Neverland.
The laughter was drowned out by the sound of soft bells as the faeries voiced their opinions, Peter looked angry and almost afraid as he turned to Wendy, "Wendy-lady we must find the lost girl Lost, and send her home before the Duchess finds her. Bloody Elaine Carrie has returned and then so has the lost girl!"
