Finding A Way Back To Her - Book 2 of Finding A Way Back

4. Nightmares

Nolan's P.O.V

I awake at the sound of Miss Jane and her little bell.

"C'mon! Get up!" She said, awakening just about everyone around her.

She finally walks out of the room. I sit on the side of my bed and yawn. Then, I look down to see a piece of paper on my nightstand. It's a note.

Off to Meverlas with Peteh! I'll se bach before you hnow it!

~Joey

With her terrible handwriting that's all I can make out. Meverlas. Where in the world is Meverlas? And Peteh? Oh, Peter. Wait, if that's Peter than Meverlas in Neverland. Crap. She's going to Neverland with Peter. And she couldn't even tell me in person? I knew I was going to lose her.

There's nothing I can do, though. I can't fly. I can't get a creepy shadow. I can't do anything. I just have to pray she'll be alright.

In that moment I make a promise to myself. That I will do whatever it takes to not lose my sister to the demon.

Joey's P.O.V

I can feel the wind sweeping my hair from side to side and all around in my face. But I don't mind it. In fact, it's an amazing feeling. The clouds disappearing as we fly through them. Stars gleaming brighter than they ever could. Peter points at them and teaches me about patterns and constellations.

Finally, we fly over an island with trees covering it like ants would cover a piece of fruit.

"Here we are!" Peter remarks as he starts flying downwards.

"I'd recognize it even if someone erased my memory." I say, a little but frightened and a little but nervous.

"Don't worry. I'm going to treat you right this time." He looks over and smiles at me. I smile back.

We let our feet touch the ground, me a little more hesitantly. As we do, we end up in the middle of the lost boy's camp, and everyone seems to be scrambling around. Lost boys are everywhere. Some sleeping, some fighting, some chasing each other. I can tell Peter is getting aggravated.

"Boys!" He yells. Every single one of the boys freeze and look up. I can see the fear burning through their bodies.

"I leave for one night and come back to see this! I'm about to just rip all your hearts out! I thought you knew by now to follow Felix's rules! And his rules are the exact same as mine!" He continues yelling. Then, he pauses for a minute.

"Where is Felix?" He asks. No one answers.

"Someone tell me. You!" He points to a little brown haired boy with dark brown eyes, but pale skin. He's got more freckles than I can count.

"He..uh... He disappeared, sir. I haven't seen him in a while. None of us have." He replies, whole body shaking.

"No one? Great." Pan steps away and goes to think alone. I just stay in my spot and look around. A shiver runs through my spine as I remember all my nightmares coming to life.

The lost boys are still shaken from fear, but they start to move a little. I decide to take action of the situation.

"Attention boys! I'd like to ask you where was the last place you saw Felix?"

"Well, I saw him walk into the woods with someone, but then he never came back." A bigger, brown-haired boy tells me.

"Ok. Anyone else?" No reply.
