The next morning as Kara awoke; she could hear the boys conversing jubilantly outside. She reached over to a nearby shelf and grabbed a pinch of leftover pixie dust. After sprinkling it upon herself, she rose out of the hammock into the air and floated through the doorway.
The morning tropical air was moist and pleasant. The hot sun was heating the dew on the plants turning it into dense patches of vapor. Nearby, the boys were sitting around a wooden table eating breakfast. She hovered over and noticed the food they were eating was candy. The table was covered with piles of it. In the center of it all was a golden bowl.
"Mornin', Kara!" one of the boys said. "Come join us!"
Kara gazed at the contents of the table. Before her was piles of chocolate bars, gumdrops, fruity hard candy, cakes and every kind of desert imaginable. "Where'd all this come from?" she asked.
Thud pointed at the gold bowl. He tried to answer but his mouth was too full.
"We found this bowl on the doorstep this morning. It's got candy in it and it's never empty!" Tootles finally said.
Kara thought about all the limits her mother put on her candy intake and how she had to eat so many foods she didn't like. "You can't have too much candy, Kara." "Eat your vegetables, Kara." "Chew your food properly, Kara." A large smile spread across her face. She floated over to the table and settled into an empty chair. She then began to eat her fill.
In a treelimb above, the raven watched.

Madam Deville smiled widely as she gazed at the image of Kara, Peter and the lost boys in her crystal ball as they enjoyed their sugar filled meal.
"HAHAHAHAHA! Everything's going according to plan!" she shouted in triumph.
The witch left her dank inner sanctum. After making her way through a windy corridor, stood outside the cave entrance. She raised both her hands above her head and muttered a short incantation. Her body then transformed into a giant eagle. This bird's head stood 5 feet off the ground. She spread her wings and took to the air.
