Chapter Twenty-Seven


Sage

"I need to find my ship," Chandler says as the four of us prison escapees walk around Neverland.

   "You were in the Pied Piper Prison for five years, your ship is probably gone or was taken by someone else," Colette says as she rolls her eyes.

   "No. My second in command, Mr. Smee, has it," he says. "We need to find him."

   "You know what, I don't give a damn about your ship. I'm free. I'm not going to waste my time parading around Neverland," I burst out.

   "Yeah, the queen's right," Clawd says.

   We've been out of the hell the world calls the Pied Piper Prison for about a week now and the second we left our cells, we ran straight to Neverland. It's an unruled territory and would be a good hideout for us. There are hardly any rules so it would be easy for us to stay here and not get caught.

   "No! Stay! I promise we'll find it. We can take back my ship and sail far away, we won't get caught," Chandler argues with me and the wolf.

   "Fine. But if you don't find it soon, I'll be pissed," I say and continue to walk.

   "Hey, why don't you use your magic to find the ship?" Colette suggests.

   I didn't even think of that. I could've saved us from days of walking and the painful blisters on our heels if I had just used magic in the first place to find Chandler's ship.

   I mean, I've been using magic to make us food but using it to transport us never crossed my mind.

   I think about Chandler and imagine what his ship would look like. I picture a large vessel made of wood and covered with large sails.

   I open my eyes and see the exact ship I was picturing, it's huge.

   "Um, this isn't my ship but I guess it'll do," Chandler says and shrugs.

   The four of us set sail and headed out on our journey.

Night comes and we're all in the cabin, having some drinks I created with my magic.

   "So here's the plan, we settle down here in Neverland for a few years, stay out of sight from the royals, then strike," Chandler says.

   I think it's a good plan, I know the stupid rulers of the stupid kingdoms will forget about us soon and they'll never see us coming.

   Right before we escaped, I put an enchantment on the prison that keeps anyone from knowing that the four of us are no longer there, rotting in our cells.

   As we're sitting in our little circle, we're all taking turns sharing who we're going to seek revenge on first.

   "Oh, that little bitch with the red cloak will wish she never ratted me out," Clawd says.

   "I can't wait to see my stepsister's face when she realizes she's the next victim on my murder list," Colette says.

   Earlier today, the girl told us that her step-sister became queen of the Charming Kingdom, the one and only Queen Ella.

   "Cinderella's gonna pay for what she did," Colette smiles.

   I laugh at the nickname she's given the queen.
