Music of the wind all over them
Like Cold whispers it surrounded them
Brown eyes melting ocean color eyes
Warm and cold, the mix of colors on a clouded fall
Hand to hand; hope with trust, the feelings of two people whose fate had made it possible for them to meet
From the darkness they emerged to find the everlasting winter night of Neverland.
Luna opened her eyes to a world of pure white; she was covered in snow and all alone. She slowly got up from the cold grass looking all around her not recognizing anything, but a word echoed in her head over and over every time making it more real.
"Neverland"
She could hardly walk right from the freezing temperature that surrounded her; she was glad Peter had given her jacket and that she was wearing warm jeans. She felt something cold in her chest and discovered she still had the pocket watch she had found in the forest. Luna held it in her hand looking at it for a while but hid it again under her shirt and continued walking.
She knew that even if she wanted to deny it she was searching for Peter, Luna was not sure what had happened after he had reached her in her fall, nor how they had really gotten to the winter place. She still remembered the noises of the cannons and the strong winds that came with it, Peter's worried face as they got separated in the sky and of course her first glimpse at Silver Bell. After walking for a while she saw a frozen lake that looked like a mirror reflecting the starry sky. She slowly looked around being careful on what she stepped on. Her heart gave a loud beat when she smelled the salty ocean breeze.
"And so the moon comes out to play." - She turned, meeting with the man who had turned her life into a nightmare, anger took her in a second and she slapped him, glaring at him with all she got. "Is that all you got love?" – His eyes were full of evil intentions shadowed by his untied black hair. He didn't even seem to care about being hit.
"Oh I got more; if I weren't freezing I would have shown you."
"I can't wait to see what you can do to me."
"Trust me that kiss is all you're going get from me," – she answered remembering what had happened in the forest. – "Where's my brother? What the hell is this place? Who are you?"
"This is Neverland, didn't Peter tell you beforehand?"
"He did, but I expected sunshine and daisies not winter and icicles," – she said with sarcasm.–"Where's Ben? I know you took him."
"I was only doing you a favor," – he smirked. –"Benedict is safe,but if you follow me you could see him."
"Just like that?" – Luna was trying her best at the conversation considering she was freezing from the cold temperature. – "Why is it winter here?"
"It's always winter here."
"Wasn't Neverland supposed to be full of green?" – She asked finally surrendering to her curiosity.
"It was full of life once, but that was when the heart of a child ruled its weather."
"Are you talking about Peter?" – But the man never answered her question he just turned to walk towards the side of the lake. – "Follow me love."
"It's Luna! But since you don't seem to care, how about you tell me your name and we can be even." – He stopped so suddenly that Luna almost bumped into him. The wind blew his obsidian bangs from his eyes revealing their hazel color.
"Alexis." – Luna remained unmoved staring at him. – "Call me Alexis."
"Of all the names in the world that was the last in my list for you." – She tried to wake up from the haze she was in, she could have sworn the name was at the tip of her tongue, locked away. – "So, Alexis, care to explain why the hell you're destroying my happiness?"
"No, Luna Love," – she rolled her eyes. – "I'm just pointing you on the right direction." – He pointed at a small boat in the frozen lake, Luna forgot all intelligence as she rushed towards the boat that had her brother unconsciously resting. She was stopped by a strong hand on her arm. – "Are you insane? Have you any idea where you're stepping in?"
Luna saw the opportunity in the act of care that Alexis gave her and she kicked him back with no feelings of worry or concern, just anger. She walked on the iced lake. Any fear had left her as she got closer to her brother.
"Ben!" – She yelled her voice echoing.
"You idiot! Shut up!" – Alexis yelled back as he ran towards her. – "Get back here!"
"You want me to listen to you? I think that has been the most bullshit I've heard this week!" – She turned back to her brother. She was so close to him now she felt her heart jump happily, she was going home with Ben, but as she was about to take his hand the lake started to shatter. Luna was filled with terror as she saw what awaited her in the lake's deep frozen waters. Alexis had reached her pulling her to the small boat.
"What the hell is that?" – She asked as the lake was coming to life and the ice covering it began going down, Alexis remained calm but he seemed angry at what he saw as he whispered, –"Sirens," – he glanced her way, –"welcome Luna, to Mermaid Lagoon."
