     Peter led the group to a tall tree, with a wooden house in it. There was a wooden ladder nailed into the tree, and Peter started climbing up it, followed by Grayson and company.

     Everyone reached the top of the ladder, and went inside the treehouse. "Tink?" Peter called out, but there was no response.

     "Tink, as in Tinkerbell?" Annie mumbled to Grayson.

     "I think so." He whispered back.

     "What're you guys talking about?" Tanner whispered loudly behind them. Annie and Grayson both turned around, grinning.

     "Who Tink is." Grayson whispered back. Tanner chuckled before clearing his throat and looking past Grayson. Annie and Grayson both turned back around, to see Peter watching them.

     "She isn't here, but this is." He mumbled, and held up a dark green wand, with a small ball of green light at the end.

     "Wha-what is that?" Annie asked.

     Peter shook his head. "I think it's a fairy wand, and the source of the green light you've all been seeing." He explained.

     "Everytime a fairy dies, the light goes off." A voice said behind the group. They all turned around to see a girl with frizzy blonde hair tied up in a loose bun, and wearing dark green clothes, just like Peter's.

     "Tink." Peter mumbled softly.

     "Oh, you remember me?" The girl asked, tilting her head to one side. "Funny, because I haven't talked to you since you got on this island."

     "Wait, are you a fairy?" Tanner asked.

     "I used to be, until I lost my wings, and was banished here." Tinkerbell replied.

     "I'm sorry, Tink." Peter said, walking closer to his old friend.

     "Oh, don't apologize to me.  Pretty soon fairies won't exist anymore, and you won't feel guilty for leaving me lonely."

     "Why won't they exist?" Henry asked.

     Tinkerbell chuckled. "Your Lost boys sure have a lot of questions." She said, before shrugging. "It's because no one believes in fairies anymore, and they're dying."

     "How-" Hunter started to say, but Peter cut him off.

     "That's enough with the questions. We should be going." He said.

     Peter forced all the Lost boys, and Annie, to leave the treehouse before turning to his old friend.

     "Is there anything I can do, Tinkerbell?" He asked.

     "I just need you to believe in me." She replied, her voice softer now.

     "I will, I promise." Peter said. He smiled slightly before leaving the treehouse.
