Once I had Scarlet and the mystery boy situated I thanked Felix and sent him back to his camp. I laid down on the opposite side of my camp and I stare up at the sky, thinking about what happened today. How did she get here? Why did it take her so long? And who the hell is the boy she's got with her? He is probably Scarlet's boyfriend. I shake my head and close my eyes, as I stare at the stars for an hour or two, until finally, I start to fall asleep.
************************
I open my eyes and look around. I see two people fast asleep and immediately remember yesterdays events. I grin and push myself up. I run over to my rope ladder and climb into my treehouse, closing the door behind me and walking over to the shelves that hold my food and dishes. I grab three plates, a pot, a loaf of bread, and three eggs. I put the contents into the pot and climb down, walking over to the fire pit. I set the bread and eggs on the plate and take the pot down to the river that is a few minutes away from my camp to fill up the pot with water. After that, I make a fire and hang the pot on a stick over the fire. After a few minutes it starts to boil and I put the eggs in the water, and toast the bread. I continue to prepare the food and I hear a twig snap from behind me. I quickly turn my head and see Scarlet standing there staring at me in awe.
"Liz!" she exclaims running to me. I stand up from my crouched position and walk over to her.
"Scarlet!" She pulls me into a hug. "How the hell did you get here?" I ask as I hug her back. Then she explains to me the whole story of what happened. "So, when Damion pulled me back I got mad and got into a fight with him and his loonies. He ended up knocking me out. Then when I woke up in my house he was in my room and said he had a job for me. He also said my mom agreed. He was angry at me for taking you away from him. So I went to work with Mr. Black the butcher. Remember how we hated him? There I met his son Jasper and we became friends. Two years later his dad finally allowed me to go into to town. Damion got beat up because Jasper was there. Jasper practically saved me and taught me to fight. Then we ran and found a hidden shop that had a magic bean. So I waited a day and Damion came over when Jasper and his dad were gone. So I got to throw insults at him then when Jasper returned we left."
"Oh my gosh. That is ridiculous. I was wondering why you took so long to come get me," I say to her, "Ya, when I fell in the portal a shadow came and brought me to Pan-more on him later- and they let me stay. Oh. And one question. How old is your friend there?" She smirks and raises her eyebrows up and down jokingly. I playfully glare at her before rolling my eyes.
"He's 18." She replies with a small smirk, and she continues to ask questions. "Who's Pan? Did he hurt you? If he did I will rip out his intestines and throw them to the...the..the.. sharks! Yeah the sharks!"
"No, he didn't hurt me...well other than yesterday, but that's it. He didn't hurt me too bad, nothing to get you hair twisted in a knot." I tell her with a smile. We hear a groan and turn around. The boy sits up slowly and looks at both of us. A wide smile places itself on Scarlet's face. He gets up and comes over to us and Scarlet pulls him into a hug.
"Jasper this is Liz," She says.
"Hello Liz. It's a pleasure to finally meet you." He smiles holding out his hand, and I shake it.
"Pleasure," I say chuckling.
"I hope you don't mind me asking, but where are we?"Jasper asks taking a look around.
"Welcome to Neverland." I smirk and Scarlet squeals in delight. Her stomach lets out a low growl and she blushes.
"Hungry?" Jasper asks in a joking way.
