Arise the Dragonslayer (The Flash warrior Book 1)

Chapter thirty-five: Do you think it's safe?

If you ever thought that arriving in Neverland was exciting (except getting your face planted beneath the sand and got imprisoned), going to a home full of fairies sounded more exciting. Peter Pan didn't inform the lost boys about this. He didn't want to be responsible for them causing trouble in Pixie Hollow- home of the Never fairies! It hasn't changed weirdly, nor did the fairies. Thank the heavens for that.

"Let me get this straight," Peter Pan rubbed his chin with his index finger. "You, MaXabiere, have this weird firepower and the ability to fly, am I right?"

"You heard me right." I smiled.

"Then Chloriette has the power by singing," he said.

"Something like that." Chloriette rubbed her arm.

"Lenard can understand other words, that's rad," Peter Pan commented.

"Trust me, it's really helpful." Lenard nodded.

"And Victor is strong, fast, and agile," Peter said.

"And can bake cookies," Victor added with pride.

"Yeah, right," Peter Pan shrugged. "About these missing friends of yours. Who are they again?"

"Captain Claes and Sean," I answered.

"A captain? Wow, finally someone to have fun with!" Peter Pan laughed.

How did he know about Pixie Hollow? Did he fly past it before rescuing us?  Do many questions running in my mind. But it didn't matter as it was the time to move along.

Our pants absorbed the river water as we pass through the waterfall. I didn't realize how much I needed a bath. Once behind the waterfall, I looked around, the light reflecting on the water made us able to see the cave's appearance. Flowers sprouted from the cracked walls and fireflies dancing among them. After being so wet and our shoes getting muddy, the exit finally showed itself. We can't wait to see Pixie Hollow!

Back when I was a kid, Rosie always convincing (more like forcing) me to come with her to the library when school is over. "Aren't you getting tired of this?" I frowned.

"Please? It'll be a minute!" She pleaded.

"I don't want to fall asleep in the library . . . again."

But she kept begging. "Come on," Rosie whined. "Henrich can't come with me because she's busy."

"She's always busy!" I remarked.

"I can't let Mondrea come because she doesn't like hanging out there," she whined.

"That makes sense."

"Sooooo . . . let's go?"

"No. I will not go and stay there for too long, Rosie." And we did go to the library and I fell asleep for four hours. My saliva started to leak on the pages. The book had no name but with the brownish and dusty cover, Rosie managed to find it. Knowing all the pages, she found and kept showing me a place with four seasons for each direction. "It's like the other place of quarté.," she told me. And it's true but it's smaller than our land and in the center of Pixie Hollow was a Tree. I think it's called . . . Pixie Dust tree? Thanks to her, I got the map memorized. I wonder who wrote it? "I always wanted to go there," Rosie said in our present age. "Maybe I'll make friends with the fairies."

"And squish them to bits with your feet, that's a pretty good idea," I teased. A Dragonslayer going to Pixie Hollow? This was not a good idea. Squeezing our way towards the exit of the tunnel, we can't imagine what it would look like by the time we saw the place. Is it too big? Or too small? I don't know. Like in the book Rosie kept showing me, the four seasons had their location and boundary. On the center was the Pixie Dust tree, looking like a normal tree that we see every day, except it's glowing and glittering with sprinkles of gold.
