Author's Note: I'm back! I am truly sorry for the wait but I just got off my flight a few hours ago and I needed to update for you all because of your support. I know how it feels when you want an author to update but they can't so this is why I am updating now. This story will probably end at chapter thirty and all questions should be answered by then if you have any. Many have asked about a sequel and I do have one in mind but it might be a while until I post it because of what's happening in my life right now.

Here is my first chapter of 2015 and I wish you al the best for the upcoming year. Now with out further a do here is chapter twenty-nine. Hope it makes up for the wait!


The six fairies stood frozen. Not one of them could bring themselves to say anything to the other. Clarion gazed at the female she had just encountered. She had the same blue sapphire eyes as her and her sister and the same glorious shade of honey brown hair as her and Robert. She wore the most amazing gown complete with carefully designed silver swirls from the hem up to the waist. The gown was a royal blue that brought out the eyes she shared with her daughter. Her hair was let down to the middle of her back and was cascaded over her shoulders. The female looked at Clarion with curiosity as she to notice the resemblance, which included their sparkling wings. The male fairy that stood next to her tightened his hold on her waist. He looked at James in wonder as the same striking green eyes looked back at him with the same messy blonde hair. The male wore a white button down shirt with navy blue trousers and dress shoes. It was no doubt that the couple had an impeccable sense of clothing. Every minute seemed to drag onto an hour as they stared at one another. That was before the female fairy stepped forward to Clarion. Her husband was resistant about her moving from his arms but he soon complied with her wishes.

The beautiful female caressed Clarion's cheek with tears of hope in her eyes. "C-Clarion?"

Clarion closed her eyes and smiled. "Yes." She whispered softly.

Maria, her mother, broke down in tears of joy as she embraced her youngest child. Clarion couldn't help but shed a few tears as her mother held on to her for dear life. Clarion had felt love from many people. Love from her siblings, her friends, her subjects and of course Milori but this type of love moved her so deeply. It was motherly love. Clarion sighed in content as her mother's love filled her to the brim in her heart. Her mother lifted a hand and stroked her baby girl's hair as she held her in a tight embrace. When they pulled away they both were tear-strained.

"Oh my baby girl." Her mother whispered as she kissed Clarion's forehead. "Look how much you've grown. My darling I missed you so much."

Clarion kissed her mother's cheek. "We have missed you too mother."

Just then Clarion's mother looked towards her other three children and broke down more as she hugged Dania and her boys. It was such an emotional moment it brought tears to both Robert and James as they embraced in their mother's love and protection. Clarion looked towards her father who was standing in shock and smiled. Roland, her father, smiled back and opened his arms for her. Clarion laughed in joy as she jumped into her father's embrace. Roland lifted her off the ground and held her for as long as he could. He hadn't seen his baby in so long.

"My little girl." He whispered as silent tears leaked from behind his eyelids. Her gave her a long loving kiss on the side of her head as he held his youngest daughter. Clarion lifted her head from where it was nicely nestled on her father's strong shoulder, and wiped his tears. Roland smiled and the gesture only made him cry more as he remembered when Clarion was two and did the same thing when he and his wife had gotten into an argument. Clarion just smiled and continued to wipe the tears as more formed in her own eyes.

"I love you father." Clarion whispered as she once again buried her head into his neck. Roland sighed and stroked her hair like her mother did.

"Oh I love you too sweetheart. I love you too." He replied as he finally put Clarion down but still held her in his strong arms.

"I never thought I'd see you again." Maria smiled as she hugged her eldest daughter. Dania just sighed and closed her eyes as her mother hugged her. It felt so right to be in relatively this stranger's arms. Maria caressed Dania's cheek as she gazed into her sapphire eyes and took in her golden hair. "You are just as beautiful when I last saw you, if not more."

Dania smiled. "Oh mother." She kissed Maria's cheek softy. "I love you so much."

Maria continued to cry as she held her precious child. "I love you too baby. You will always be my baby." Those words were the same words that her mother told her when James was born. She remembered from the video they witnessed.

"I know." Was all Dania could say as she gripped her mother's waist and cried silently in her shoulder. Maria pulled back and wiped her daughter's tears with her finger. She gazed into her watery blue eyes that put sapphires to shame as she dried the tears.

"Don't cry honey, I'm here now and I am never leaving you again." Dania nodded as she gripped onto her mother.

Roland was embracing his eldest son, Robert, as he whispered in his ear.

"I never thought I would ever have the chance to see my eldest child grow up and be so responsible." Roland said as he rubbed Robert's back.

"I never thought I would have a father to guide me though my life, but now I do." Robert whispered as a tear rolled down his handsome face. Roland smiled and wiped it away.

"Do not cry, son. You are such a strong man along with your brother. I know I've only known you for twenty years of your life but I will be here for the rest. I promise you." Roland promised as he hugged his son. Robert nodded and pulled from the embrace to let James have a chance to meet his father.

James walked over to Roland. His father grinned. "Ah, my look alike." James chuckled with his father as they hugged. "I've missed you."

James smiled against his father. "I have missed you too father." The embraced once more and pulled away and began to speak to one another. James never thought in all of Neverland that he would have a father to share his problems and feelings with. James knew he was finally home.

After the tears and hugs had been done, Roland and Maria both sensed and knew that their children wanted answers to what had happened over their lifetime. Being the good parents they were, they sat their four newfound children on a sofa and they sat opposite. Roland could sense his wife was nervous as their children got comfortable so he took her hand in his and gave her a warm smile as he leaned in and kissed her cheek before they began.

"Your mother and I are guessing you would all want a few answers to what happened in the past."

Roland received four nods. He looked at his wife and gave her one last reassuring smile.

"I presume you know a bit since you found us here?" Roland asked.

Dania nodded and spoke for the others. "Yes we do, but not much."

Roland nodded. "What do you know? And how did you find one another?"

Clarion took a deep breath and began to recall those hectic days. "I had received an arrival with a human condition call down syndrome and I had to call James to come over and see if it was anything serious. After James confirmed she would be fine, he had doubts as to if she would be affected if her clumsy child had the same condition and if she would be affected if something happened to the child." Roland and Maria nodded to show they were following the story. "He told me that we would have to meet with Robert to find out how her clumsy child was doing. Once Robert arrived at Pixie Hollow, he discovered that the arrival's, Grace, clumsy child had actually unfortunately passed on but Grace was not affected by this. This worried all three of us so we called Dania to come and confirm if she was what is known as a miracle and since she was, Dania preformed the miracle ceremony."

Maria nodded. "So when did you find out you were all related?


The four spouses stood anxiously outside the palace doors. The couldn't go in but they all desperately wanted to know if their loved ones had found their parents or were in trouble.

Milori passed by a stream as he slumped down on a rock. He watched the fishes in the water swim around happily despite the Lord's glum mood. He couldn't stand the thought that Clarion might have been hurt or in need of help. Milori knew that he couldn't be with Clarion every second of the day but the hours when they were apart were agitating for him. He lost the love of his life once and he was not planning on making that mistake again. He sighed and placed his hands in his pocket. That was when he felt a slip of paper. Pulling it out he recognized the elegant hand writing to be Clarion's and he quickly read it.

My Milori,

I know if you are reading this I must be in the Diamond Castle right now. So I decided to write this letter for you to read to put your worries to an end. I've known you too long to know that you are probably pacing around the area constantly thinking if I am all right, which you do everyday of your life. And I love it that I know I am protected by such a sweet and caring sparrowman. I don't want you to worry about me because that will make me worry about you. I love you so much darling that I can't even think of any words that describe when I am with you. You are so kind, gentle, masculine, sweet, loving; the list just goes on and on!

I have left this sheet music for you because I know how talented you are after we sang together and you played amazingly on the guitar so I thought this might help you put your mind at ease. Imagine I am right next you singing with you as you play this song. I hope this helps!

Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you

That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance and spaces between us

You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on

Once more you've opened the door

And you're here in my heart and my heart will go on and on

This is just the first verse and chorus. I couldn't give you all of it because I wanted to sing it with you so here is just a short segment of it. I love you darling so much. You are my everything.

Now stop worrying about me and play this song like I am right next to you

Love Clarion xx

Milori sighed as he reread her letter. Clarion was just so caring to him. She knew when he was vulnerable and in need of an emotional stand to lean on, which was her. His smile crinkled his eyes handsomely as he walked over to their bird to retrieve her guitar. He brought it back to the lake and strummed the chords Clarion had written for him and played like Clarion said. As if the love of his life was right next to him, smiling and singing along. This is what he needed, a piece of Clarion to hold onto when the going got tough.


Clarion smiled. "Well, when I went over to thank them all for coming and helping me, are wings shimmered differently colours before we witnessed on a screen the birth of all four of us with you two." Clarion explained. "Then we saw a news report saying we all went missing and on the same day we were all born in different kingdoms."

Roland thought for a moment. "When did you find out that we were here?"

"Two days later we were told by a ghost like creature to pack our bags and leave because we now had to rule over Neverland to replace our parents. We all refused and it told us to find four gems; the pearl shaped spirit, the emerald shaped star, the sapphire shaped human and the golden butterfly. We were told these gems would unlock this castle to hopefully free our parents. So we left, leaving the children to find the gems."

Their parents sat in thought before Maria asked. "Children? What children?"

The four siblings looked at one another before Robert spoke. "Well you see, as we grew up we got married and had children."

"All of you are married with children?" Roland asked.

Clarion shook her head. "I'm not." The parents nodded.

"Tell me about your children before we tell you more about the past." Maria requested with a smile.

Robert nodded and went first. "Well I have three children; I have a fourteen year old daughter, Alice and twins Matthew and Harry who are six years old." Maria smiled at this.

"I have two children. Pixie my seven year old daughter and George my ten month old baby." Dania said. Maria gushed at the thought of her daughter having a young baby who she could spoil rotten.

"I also have two children. Sam who is now fifteen and Daisy who is eight." James finished. The parents smiled and looked at their youngest child.

"I don't have any children and I am not married." Clarion said quietly. "But I am in a happy relationship with a sparrowman that I love." Maria laughed and gave Clarion a warm smile.

"This makes me feel so old." Roland laughed as he turned to his wife. "We are grandparents."

Maria smiled and kissed his cheek. "Oh honey!" She giggled.

"Now, we will fill in the gaps of your story." Roland started after the laughter died down. "You see when Clarion turned four we had an unwelcome guest at her small birthday celebration. Her name was Victoria and it seems to me that she is the ghost like creature that you encountered. Victoria was jealous as she had no power and was willing to kill all of us to get what she wanted. She threatened us at the party but your mother and I chose to ignore her. Days later, she returned with a curse. She took us all to this diamond castle and threatened to torture us to death. We begged her not to touch you four so she decided to give you all new identities and send you far way from each other and us. Your mother and I thought this was better than witnessing you all die in front of us. When she sent you away she locked us in here and told us the only way we would be freed was if you four came together and survived her deathly quests."

The room was silent.

"But why would Victoria tell us about you is she wanted the power and us not to find you?" James asked.

"She didn't. Her good side Valeria did." Maria noticed her children's confused faces so she explained further. "Victoria separated herself into a good ghost and an evil one. The good ghost, Valeria, was the one who showed you the video of your past but it was Victoria who sent you on your journey here."

"You went through so much…" Clarion whispered.

Roland shook his head from side to side and smiled at his daughter. "We watched you all everyday from that day you were taken away from us. Even though you thought you had nobody to turn to, we were here watching you through a special surveillance system."

"But why were you two shocked when we mentioned about the children and marriage? Didn't you see that on the screens as well?"

Roland looked to the floor sadly as Maria explained. "When Victoria found out that we were watching you four, she destroyed the system and made the castle disappear so you would ever find it. Or so she thought." The mother smiled at her children and the two parents went to embrace the four again.

They were finally the family they were always meant to be.


Author's Note: Hopefully this chapter made up for he long wait…again! I really tried to show the deep connection between the parents and their children when they came face to face for the first time in centuries. And finally the full story of what happened in the past to fill any blank holes lurking around. If you are still confused you can ask in your review or I will put something up on my profile. There will probably be only one more chapter to this story. I can't believe that this story is nearly over! Again if you want a sequel of have any ideas for short one shots mention it in your review and I can see what I can do. Thank you to everyone who has supported me through this experience.

See you all in my last chapter…
