Escaping to An World Unknown
A/N Thanks to Elphie Thropp for reviewing but I like writing K.W as a boy instead of a girl but I hope other people aren't mad about that.
I hope others enjoy.
Kari found Alexander up in a tree as she climbed up but saw him smile shyly seeing her but wondered what she was doing here but she wanted to help him not be so shy and quiet all the time.
"I'm here because Carol asked me to help.
The others know you're shy but why?
I know how you feel." she said to him.
He was stunned hearing her say that.
"You do?
But how?
You don't seem afraid here." he told her.
"You're right Alexander but I was like you back in my world, afraid and very shy and not able to make friends but since I came here, I don't feel so scared anymore but I know you'll learn not to be afraid." she answered as he nodded.
She saw him smile a little as he felt calmer up here.
"I just like being alone because Carol and the others are always busy but I talk to Douglas sometimes when Carol's asleep because before Max came, he got angry at anybody for talking to Douglas beside him." he admitted.
She understood as she decided to leave him for a while as she saw Marc and the others playing.
She wondered where her father was but Carol hadn't told them he'd went back to their world because he knew they'd want to go back and be with him.
Max was back in his home but was cleaning up but sighed knowing that Carol had gotten angry and was probably trying to get him to come back to the island but he liked it here as he was beginning to turn back into a human but had decided to stay inside until he was back to normal because he knew the neighbours wouldn't understand if he tried to explain but hoped that Marc and Kari were keeping the Wild Things happy but he knew Carol wasn't happy but he hoped things were alright on the island as he was busy working on an new novel from the last few weeks he'd spent on the island but he was tired and needed to sleep for a while but he had dreams about the island and the Wild Things but woke up later from the dream.
He hoped that things were okay as he went to get a snack but heard a noise in the living room but saw Douglas there on his couch which made him smile a little but was curious.
"What're you doing here?" he asked him.
"I wanted to come see you Max but things have been quiet since you were gone and even Carol has been quiet and not gone on a rampage because you left but I think that we need you and you need us but you just think you need to be in this world but the truth is, you never belonged in this world.
You belong with us on the island.
It's your choice." he told him falling asleep.
Max sighed as he went upstairs but Douglas's words echoed in his head as he fell asleep.
Alexander couldn't sleep as he was in his tree house because of what Kari had told him but he wanted to be brave like the others but wasn't sure if he could try but sighed knowing that he would find a way but wondered where Douglas had gone but had a feeling he was with Max but had an idea as he saw the boat but the voice in his head told him it was a bad idea he was thinking as he climbed into the boat as it sailed off to the human world but he hoped Max would listen to him but hoped Carol wouldn't be angry because Douglas was gone but hoped that things would be okay.
He then got out of the boat and ran out of the woods to Max's house but entered softly but smiled seeing Douglas there on the couch asleep but he awoke seeing him there.
"Alexander what're you doing here?" he asked him.
"I-I came to bring you and Max back before Carol got mad or went on a rampage.
I know that Max mightn't want to come back but we have to try." he answered softly.
He nodded as he fell asleep.......
