Relatable rant at end. You can read or not.
My eyes flutter open as I'm being roughly shook. I groan at the sight of Tinkerbell. "Soups ready." She whispers in her think accent.
I nod my head and sit up as she hands me a warm bowl with a spoon. I look at it hesitantly. I already miss the food at Storybrooke.
"I didn't poison it." Tinkerbell jokes as she sits on a stool across from me, already shoving the steaming food into her mouth.
"I couldn't be sure of that." I sarcastically remark as I blow on a spoon full of the steaming liquid. She chuckles.
I look up at her for a moment. I don't know this girl, she very well could poison my food if she wanted to. But some how I know she wouldn't dare to.
Who was she?
"How did you get on this island?" I ask. It was a question swimming through my head. From what I've learned is girls are not exactly common on Neverland.
She looks up and for a moment I see a flash of pain in her eyes. "You don't want to hear my pity story." She mumbles. I'm almost surprised. After all that's happened to be, I rarely pity people. But on the other hand, there's lots to pity when it comes to Neverland and the people that inhabit it.
But I guess she knows that Neverland changes you, and you put your walls up, so telling a deep part of your history to someone you just meant is big and almost never done.
"I've heard many pity stories, yours will not bother me." I respond.
She sighs. "Its started after I lost my wings." She began. "I wanted a new start, a place where no one knew me, and I could be a new person. So I moved far from the Evil queens kingdom. I lived for many months in peace, and then one day I heard word of a curse that destroyed the kingdom. No one knew why, or how, our kingdom didn't get affected, but we didn't ask questions. I feared for the only family I had that lived there and set out on a journey to check to see if maybe the fairies survived." She solemnly continued.
"When I found out they didn't, I was devastated. I went back and something snapped in me. I was angry. More than I ever have been. That's when Pan showed up, promising me a life of... fun... of... happiness and freedom in a land far away, where I would forget My anger here. So I excepted. But he had a price. He gave me a drawing of a girl, by the name of Cindy, now that I think back, she looked like you a bit." She humorlessly laughed.
"He told me to find the girl, but I had to team up with a man, by the name of Hook, a pirate." She spit out. My eyes widen, even though She was looking down at her hands. I didn't say anything though.
"We found the girl, and brought her to Neverland, only to see her be killed. Hook was angered, not only at Pan, but also at me. I told Hook to leave, told him it was my fault, that this was my punishment and I would take it, whether I wanted to or not. So he left, and I stayed, but not after long was I banished from the camp, and was sent here. Alone. Angry. And without freedom." She ended.
"I'm sorry." I said under my breath. She stood up. "You should really eat up, sleeping spells make you hungry." She says with a smile.
I took a bite as of she was my mother and I felt I should do as she asks, letting the warm meaty liquid run down my throat in a soothing way.
I swallowed. "I need to go." I said firmly, remembering why I was really here.
"You know you can't. Its too dangerous. Plus Felix told me to watch you." She said sitting at the table.
"I don't care what Felix says." I say with a hint of annoyance. I could sense her roll her eyes.
"Well I do. I'd rather not get beat by that tall freak." She says with wavering patience.
"How about we make a deal." I says slowly, letting the word roll of my tough as if it's forbidden, And dare might I say it, dreadfully cliche.
She looks at me from the corner of her eyes. "What kind of deal?" She suspiciously asked.
"I'll just spy. I won't let anyone see me. I just need to check up on them. Please. Its painful not knowing if my family's okay. You have to understand." I plead.
She looks down. "Okay." She says simply and slowly, as if regretting it as soon as she lets it slip from her lips.
I place my bowl down on the stool where Tinkerbell previously sat on, and race down the latter, only to be met with a pair of piercing blue eyes.
I gulp. "Felix." I greet quietly. His eyes where starting to grow with anger, and for a moment, I felt as if I should fear him. But I quickly set that feeling aside. If anything He should fear me.
"What are you doing Wendy? Did you escape?" He asked placing both his hands on my shoulders.
I shrug him off, not liking the way he's acting. "No. I didn't have to. Because unlike you, Felix. People trust me." I say calmly.
He looks up at the tree house and than back at me quickly. "She did what?" He whispered through gritted teeth. "Oh, she's gonna get it." He mutters, pushing me out of the way of the latter.
My mouth hung surprised, but not long before I grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back.
I kept my grip on his wrist, looking him in the eyes. "What's gotten into you?" His eyes softened and he took a deep breath, closing and opening his eyes(gif at top). "This place has changed everyone. For the worst Wendy." He kept eye contact.
"Then you understand why I must help?" I cry, letting go of his wrist with a frowned brow.
"Then you understand why you must not." He stated firmly.
I shook my head. "I'm just going to check up on this Felix." I start to walk into the jungle I dreaded.
He grabbed my wrist. "I'm trying to protect you." He pleaded.
I pulled my wrist away. "I don't need protection." I snap at the ground.
"From Pan you do. He's even more ruthless. He's getting suspicious as to why I can't find the traitor. He doesn't know it's you, but....if you enter that jungle...I'm afraid I'll..." He stopped. I turned around. Pain was clear in his eyes, but also determination.
"You'll what." I challenge him with my squinted eyes.
He took a deep breath. "I'll lock you in echo cave."
"You're bluffing." I breathed.
He humorlessly laughed. "Afraid not ,Darling." He went to grab my wrist again. Out of fear, anger, and desperation, I did something I didn't even think I would do, and by the surprised expression on Felix's face, neither did he.
I unbelieving looked down at my hand, and at the bright red beating heart. It was something so natural that just came to me, like an instinct.
Felix clutched his chest gasping, his eyes red and watering. I hesitantly inched his heat to my lips. "Give me your coat." I whispered.
Felix had, yet again, a pain in his eyes as he slowly took off his coat and gave it to me. I took it with shaky hands and wrapped it around my shoulders.
"I'm sorry Felix. Just let me fix this mess and then everything will be okay." I say with a sad smile.
"Don't be stupid Wendy. This is Neverland. A place of nightmares and pain. You can't fix it because it was never broken, this is just how it's always been, you've been blind, and now the sun is up and you can see all the beautiful lies unmasked...and its ugly and frightening." Felix said with disgust.
I take a sad sigh looking down walking towards him. I say nothing, inches from his face. I warp my arms around his stiff torso, burying my head in his chest. "I hope you can find it in your heat to forgive me." I whisper in his chest, almost to quiet for me to hear.
"How can I when you've took it from me." He says coldly. I step back and don't respond.
"Return to camp and don't try to stop me." I speak into his heart. He turns around and walks back into the dark jungle in silence.
I place his heart safely in an inside pocket of his coat.
What's happening? Why does is seem like I can't control my powers?
I spread my arms out, letting the instincts take over and guide me. Something that had never happened before was happening and I liked it. I felt free.
Like a bird.
Hey guys! Sorry for not updating in forever. Summer is finally here and I'm so happy.
Okay RANT TIME!
Do you wanna know something that makes me very angry. People who discontinue their freaking books. Like some on? If you decide to discontinue your book, can you at least delete it? Because then more people read it and get angry and start to cry...or maybe that's just me.
Because it's annoying how you continue to trick people to read your book, that's not ever going to be finished! So wtf. And honestly think of the fans.
I was reading and you know what this girl said? "I started writing this when I was really in love with Robbie, and now I just don't feel the same." Like really nigga? Talk about a fake fan.
But anyways, you guys are great and I'm not telling yall what book It is, But if you guess, I won't deny it.
Bye guys, you all are the best! So happy I get to be on this adventure with yall! XD
