Never Again

Wendy Darling

"Dells.... Delly...DELLLLLYYYY!!" a voice shouted. I groaned and sat up, my vision blurred. Wiping my eyes and blinking to regain vision, I saw four figures standing in front of me. Peter, two boys, and a girl that was kind of pretty.

"Peter, who are the new kids," I asked rubbing my head. "and how long have I been out?" Peter smiled and backed up, to give me full view of the three people.

"This-," Peter said nodding in the small ones direction, "is Jon, Michal, and Wendy Darling. I've brought them to tell us stories! Oh and we just showed up and it's about half past noon. When did you conk out?"

"Oh I ran the low hanging root and knocked myself out around and hour after the....dissagrement." I said. "Hi I'm Delly." I stuck my hand out shaking their hands.

"Hey I should go find Cae and Zak where ever they went. Have fun showing them around Neverland" I said with a smile on my face. The smile was fake though, Peter had brought Wendy because he liked her, not me. I never really did think that he would like me back, but hey a girl could dream.

Peter's POV

I shook my head, knocking herself out was something that Delly would do. I hoped she would be okay. She was going to take this hard, but Hook was getting into the dark stuff of Neverland. He was my best friend but he wanted power, I don't know what came over him. We had gotten into arguments and even fights but one thing we agreed on was that we weren't to tell Dells about it. It would break her.

"So Peter, are there really mermaids here," Wendy asked? I smiled, Wendy was so pretty, with delicate features, full lips, and a soft voice. She was so excited to come with me to Neverland. I don't really understand why she insisted on her brothers coming too.

"Of course! Would you like to see them?" Her eyes lit up with excitment as she nodded, her brothers nodding too.

 If Wendy was this excited about the mermaids, then she was going to love the fairy ball. I smiled at the thought. I usually took Delly to watch the fairies dance but I was going to have Wendy dance with me.

Delly POV

 I had yet to find Zak and Cae. Cae must have taken him to the mainland to get some more junk food. As long as he brought me some skittles I didn't really care. For someone that had only been here two weeks Cae was a really good friend. He was someone that I could trust, and someone to get me skittles. The poor kid, first time he brought skittles I tackled him to the ground to get them. I chuckled at the memory.

 Currently wandering in the forrest I was left alone in my thoughts. I was barefoot, as always, and wearing my usual clothes. Shorts made of greens leaves that criss-crossed in the front over my chest, leaving my back bare. the top tied, like a bathing suit. The outfit had a sort of preservitive that kept it clean and that it grew with my body and the leaves didn't crinkle up and die. the boys all had just the shorts.

It was getting darker in Neverland, a storm was moving in. Now Neverland didn't really have a lot of storms. It rained occationally, when we wanted it to, it even snowed sometimes. But there was rarely a storm, unless Neverland was at war with itself. It happened once, when the fairies had...disagreement. I'm not really sure on the details but it the storm was violent for about three days or so. I was 12 when this happened.

This storm looked like it could last awhile, I'm guessing that we only had three days or so until the storm hit. The Darlings were going to be in for a rude awakening.
