Weeks went by with me vacillating from the Lost Boys camp and fairy territory. Lisa rarely spent time here anymore with the boys. Peter even talked to me about letting her stay with the fairies permanently. I think it's a good option.

But the main issue was that I haven't changed yet. Queen Clarion is getting really worried. She says that I was should've turned by now. I was over the meat cravings and practiced my magic everyday. She only teaches me light magic. When I'm with Peter, he teaches me dark magic. I still have the demon and angel magic in my mind. Doing magic came easily for me. They all had to show me how to do it only once and everything would click.

I do have minimal transformations though. Sometimes when Peter and I make out, I'd get claws from the excitement and we'd have to stop. My eyes change into my dragon ones everyday when I eat. Peter and the boys never stare, they're above that. Even now, my throat starts feeling really hot, like a fire is about to start. I didn't tell Peter about that though. Everything is peaceful. Maybe that's why I haven't changed. Clarion said I needed to feel a strong emotion to change.

**********************************************Lily's P-O-V

Tonight was a full moon and Peter is planning a party. We haven't had one for a while. But something feels off. It feels like something is going to happen. I didn't want to tell Peter about my suspicions.

Peter decided to take me out to a small spring before the party.

"So what's it like Lily?" he asks as we swim in the warm water.

"Huh?"

"Being non-human. I just want to know if it feels different from when you thought you were."

"It feels...right. Like I am above the limits of any kind of human form. Being a human without magic or strength was a struggle. I know now that I never was, but I just feel...."

"Eternal." Peter finished for me and I smiled, nodding. Then Peter got an odd look on his face then smiled.

"Lily, someone just arrived in Neverland. A new lost boy. I have to go but I'll be back with him at the party."

I gave him a smile and nodded as he gave me a quick kiss and completely disappeared from the water and out of sight. Our party tonight just turned into a welcoming party. I got out of the spring and dried off. Using my magic I made myself a flowy black dress with embroaded designs that came just below my knees. Once I was dressed I headed for camp. I was learning Neverland's foundations exclusively thanks to Peter. If I ever strayed from our normal traveling routes, I could easily navigate myself back to camp.

Camp was jumping with the lost boys dancing. The drums were playing loud and everyone was moving. Peter wasn't back yet but I danced with my boys. They really looked up to me. I started teaching them how to do certain things. Like how to make riddles out of simple tasks to prank others and new methods of attack on intruders. But to my surprise, some of the boys came to me for knowledge. So, I began tutoring them in every subject they desired. Everyone was so happy tonight. We are a family. They look to me as their mother figure.

It was a while before Peter finally made his appearance for the party. The newcomer behind him made me stop in my tracks. The boys stopped dancing and the music stopped. We all stared at the newcomer. He looked familiar to me but I've never seen him before. His being was tugging at something in my mind. My face had a mix of emotions, Peter saw this and was beside me instantly,

"What's wrong Lily?" Peter was concerned.

"He looks familiar but I don't know him and I never forget a face."

The newcomer was looking at me in shock and own mix of emotions as he said,

"Lily?!"

I instantly grabbed Peter's hand and stepped a bit behind him. Peter spoke for me thankfully.
