[Peter Pan]

Neverland

The mystical and magical land where any and everything is possible and children never grow up and every new day is a brand new adventure waiting just outside the door of Peter Pans underground clubhouse...that's the way it USED to be.Oh the Indians and the Mermaids and the Faeries were enough to keep him entertained for a goodly long while but,eventually,even they became boring and he began missing his Lost Boys and Wendy and,yes,even Capt Hook,that old codfish,so on this very morning he decided to leave his clubhouse,which had fallen into horrible disrepair from his lack of aptitude in cleaning and the various solitary swordfights reinacting the glorious battles with the evil Capt Hook for his own amusement.Instead of cleaning it up,which,of course,never occured to him,he flew over the clutter on the floor and burst out the wooden door and threw his arms and legs out as wide as he could while flying slightly up and tilting his head back then crowing at the top of his lungs before smiling and flying as fast as he could straight up and into the sky...

The way to Neverland is simply taking the second star to the right and flying straight on til morning but getting out was another matter altogether.By sea it's a simple matter of navigating your way through the reefs bordering Neverland,a skill Hook had mastered but few others could manage,however he wasn't traveling by sea so that didn't matter to him in the least no,instead,he was flying and to leave neverland by means of flying one had to,one,fly backwards and,two,whistle a very specific tune,one only few knew,while keeping ones eyes closed the entire time.
This is how he was able to leave Neverland,after cleverly keeping his ties with the magical land strong by coating his arms and legs with the thick mud found on the shore of the Mermaids lagoon,and arriving in the land of Wendy,a smelly old place called London,and seeing the tall stone things wendys people call buildings looking very different than the last time he'd seen them.They seemed to be made more of glass than stone anymore and,after flying up and putting his hand on a smooth section of the building,feeling a little colder than stone usually feels.

"Most extraordinary"

Then he looks down at the street below him,alerted by the screeching sound and a long,loud,beep,seeing dozens and dozens of fast moving things,also made of this strange material he'd felt on the building,which men and women,grownups,are within clutching a wierd circle thing and turning it from side to side as they go.This brings a huge,mischievious,smile to his lips and he flies down in the midst of these things then begins flying along side of them,now seeing that there are also children within them,he waves at a infant in some chair that seems to be a half circle making the young one giggle,then pours on the speed and shoots past the thing the adult woman is in the front of and this action is met with a strident screeching noise,much like the one that'd caught his attention in the first place,and he looks back to see the thing with the woman and child in it stopped and the woman sitting there gape mouthed as her wide eyes follow him unblinkingly.More screeching is heard as all the strange objects with the people in them stop,a few running into others with funny crashing noises,and he floats there watching all of this with laughter in his eyes and on his voice when a new type of thing approaches.

This new thing is a little like the others but it has lights on top of it and makes a strident noise without stopping or slowing,in fact it's going faster,and soon it arrives and stops,the noise stopping but the lights still going,and a man in blue gets out of it,Ooooo something new,then slowly walks over,looking up,and speaks.

"Alright kid.How're you staying up there and who do you think you are...Peter Pan?"

My eyes widen wide at this and I imperiously nod in affirmation to his question,which makes his jaw drop,then he shakes his head and talks into a little box on his shoulder asking for something called "whitecoats" then draws a odd little curved thing from his side and points it at me telling me to come down from there,slowly,and put my hands atop my head.
Thinking this a new kind of game I do as he says and he takes hold of my wrist then puts it behind my back and I feel something hard and cold touch my wrist then I turn myself upside down and fly behind him then do the same to him,putting his hand behind his back,then take the silver loops with a chain connecting them from his hands and do to him what he tried to do to me,making him drop the strange curved thing,then fly straight up several feet above his head,enjoying this game muchly,and laughing at how red the mans face gets as he spouts off a stream of words I have never heard before,until now,then I crow three times,rising higher in the air with each crow,then bow to the red faced man in the blue clothes-

"A wonderful game!We shall have to play it again sometime.But,for now,I have many more adventures to find in this strange and wonderful land!"

With that I fly off leaving the man with the red face and blue clothes,not to mention several other people including ones that bursts of light come from near their heads,standing there in stunned disbelief while I take to the skies high above the ground unknowingly leaving the place called London for other,more modern,places.

[Arya Loup Garou]

Grandpa Cole had to visit London. He had family there he said, ones that weren't Loup Garou, but still family. I begged Mom and Dad to let me go with him. I wanted to go over seas too! I'm pretty lucky, cause Mom and Dad said I could go with Grandpa Cole. See, he's the Alpha, which means he's like, the leader. So Mommy and Daddy didn't have to worry about me. They worry about me a lot. It's ok most of the time, and they still let me do lots of stuff.

It was the first time I was on an airplane, and it was REALLY fun! We were in these seats, like a car, only really long and with wings, and it flew with all of us in it. I decided I liked flying. London was really foggy though. It rained a lot.

Grandpa Cole took me to visit his family. They weren't Loup Garou, cause Grandpa Cole said they came from the other side of his family. His mom's dad. That's a long way back. Cause we can live a real long time. It was fun, I got to play with some other kids, I think they were like, my cousins or something.

We ate lots of food, and after, I asked Grandpa Cole if I could go play outside. I hadn't gotten to be a wolf in a while, and I missed running around. He said I had to settle with playing and running around with my cousins.

We took some toys outside and played until after dark, then my cousins had to go to bed. Grandpa Cole and Uncle Rory came outside and sat on the porch. They talked while I played some more. I kept being awake more at night since we got to London, he told me it was time zones. I think it's weird that there's different time in different places. Cause it all feels the same to me.

I finally asked Grandpa Cole if I could turn into a wolf, just for a little while. I stood on my tippy-toes to ask him, and whispered it in his ear. He laughed and said that Uncle Rory knew what we were, I didn't have to whisper and that I could if I stayed close. I beamed up at him. "Thanks Grandpa Cole! I'll be good. I promise." I took off my shoes and socks, looked around and hid by the side of the house. They called it a flat. But it's not flat. Once I got my clothes off, I was already furry. I could change really fast now. I yipped happily, and bounded off to play in the trees to find something to chase. I liked to run, and chase bugs and birds and stuff. Even rabbits. It was my favorite game.

[Peter Pan]

-He'd been flying for a long while and decided the land with the house and the big yard,with a woods nearby,would be a good place to settle into the highest branches of a tree and rest for awhile,maybe fall asleep even,before going in the same direction to this place where he'd over heard some men,who stumbled alot for some reason,calling the colonies.

He'd just settled down and his bright blue eyes were drifting shut when he noticed two men sitting on the lit up porch of the house and a young girl whisper in one of the mens ear then smile happily at what that man said to her before going around to the side of the house and...changing...when the large wolf lopes its way out from where the girl had been he sits up straight and watches her approach the tree he'd settled in and,just when she was under him at the base of the tree,he reaches into the pouch at his side and took out a handful of faerie dust then held out his hand and turned it over then opened his hand so the faerie dust wafted,and sparkled,its way down and twinkled on the fur of her back...

once this was done he stood up and threw his head back to crow out like a Rooster greeting the morning sun before diving off the top branch in a swan dive directly at the young wolf-

[Arya Loup Garou]

I have a good nose. I kept it too the ground, sniffing as I came back around the house. I sniffed all the way to the trees that made the woods. I wanted to run in the woods real bad. But Mommy didn't like it, and I wasn't allowed to all by myself. See, bad things happened to Mommy when she was little. The mean hunters got her and hurt her a lot. But she got out, and is with Aunt Arwen and Daddy now. Midian's not my real Daddy, but he kinda is. He loves me too.

I pranced from paw to paw, whining softly. I really really really wanted to play in the woods. I sniffed my way up to a tree where a really funny smell came from. I hadn't smelled that before. It was kinda like Gramma Syren's honey bread, and chocolate chip cookies, and gum drops. It smelled like candy and sweet things. I tipped my head to one side and looked up in the tree. If I squinted I could almost see something.

Then it snowed something on me! This ticklish sparkly stuff came out of the tree and fell all over me. It stuck to my fur and crawled up my nose. I sneezed, and then I wasn't on the ground anymore! I was flying all by myself. I was scared and excited. It was fun, but I didn't know what to do if I fell. I didn't want to get hurt. I didn't even do it on purpose!

I whimpered softly, and moved my legs like I was swimming. It kinda worked, but not very well. Maybe I should try running. Then there was this crowing, like a raven, only a little different. I looked up and over in time to see a boy flying down to me. I hung in midair, cause I didn't really have anywhere to go, and wasn't even sure how to go anywhere at all. I gave him a wolfish grin. Unless he spoke wolf, I'd have to talk to him in my head. But once I did, he could talk to me that way too. Only he wouldn't need to, he could talk normally. I just couldn't when I was a wolf. "Hi! I'm Arya. What's your name? Hey, we can both fly too! Only, I couldn't a minute ago. Did you do it?" It was really cool to be flying, I just wasn't sure how to make it work right. Maybe this boy could help me, since he was flying too.

[Peter Pan]

-he laughs happily when you sneezed your way off the ground.He'd been flying down to help you,never considering for a second that you might not be able to understand him,but you'd lifted off the ground all on your own like any young child would be able without intstruction from another and he flew around you in circles as you spoke into his mind,his nose wrinkling in surprise but immediately accepting this,and he stops right in front of you then speaks to you aloud while thrusting his hand forward-I'm Pan.Peter Pan to be more exact and...serious.-sticks tongue out while making a "yuck" face-Yes you're flying...but not very well-laughs lightly and points to a spot farther up the tree-See where the leaves are all missing right there?Make yourself want to be there...like this...-he makes a show of concentrating and he floats through the air upwards until he reaches the spot he'd shown you then he looks back down at you-Your turn now Arya!

-while you're thinking about this he smiles mischieviously at the grand game he's playing making a flying wolf to have fun with and he tilts his head to the side slightly while regarding you-Have you always been a wolfgirl Arya?What's it like being able to change into a wolf?It sounds like a grand adventure for sure and one that wouldn't be dull or boring ever.-at this thought he smiles huge and flies straight up the the very top of the tree,yes Pan has extreme A.D.D.,and alights on the very top of the tree trunk with one foot,still flying but also touching the top,and throws his head back doing a eerily perfect imitation of a wolfs howl over and over-

[Arya Loup Garou]

I thought about it. I'd never heard of Peter Pan before. Maybe Oma Nyta had, or Mom could tell me. "Hi, Peter!" I gave him a big wolfy grin. I was still peddling my paws, but I just kinda hung there. I didn't mean not to fly very well. I just didn't know how. "Well, I never flew before. Can you teach me?" My tongue hung out of the side of my mouth. I was panting cause I was so excited.

I nodded, yipping once. "Ok, I see it." I squinted my eyes, squeezing until they were almost closed. I tried really, really hard. I wanted to go there, to that spot Peter pointed to. I watched Peter fly up there and tried even harder.

Then suddenly I was moving! I wasn't just hanging in the air, but moving! I was flying!!! "It's working! It's working! Here I come!" My tail wagged a whole lot, cause I was so happy. I made it to where he sat in the tree, and kinda tried to sit too. It was a little weird, cause wolves don't fit in trees right. But I was small enough that I could perch there with him. I had to balance real careful on my paws though.

I grinned again at Peter, wagging my tail even more. "Yep! I was born a Loup Garou. Once a Loup Garou, always a Loup Garou. It means I'm a werewolf. It's a lot of fun. I get to run and play, and I'm really fast. I like to chase and play tag. Do you like tag?" I giggled when he howled, he sounded almost just like a real wolf. Since my giggle sounded like a snort, I got some more of that tickly sparkle stuff in my nose and sneezed again. I almost fell off the branch. I shook my head, then howled too.

[Peter Pan]

-As you sit there thinking if you've heard of me or not I gently float down to the branch I'd pointed out to you and land with practiced ease I alight on that very branch and watch you focus on it then begin moving,slowly at first,but picking up speed as your confidence grew in leaps and bounds...after all it wasn't really a "Happy Thought" that enabled people effected by pixie dust to fly,a Happy Thought was a means to an end but the truth of it is it's more about self confidence than that a Happy Thought is just the catalyst for achieving flight...of course Peter knows nothing of this he's only in it for the fun and that's all.

When you reach the branch and sit I immediately hop up and begin walking along the branch with the same amount of sure footedness I'd display walking across a wide and stable surface instead of a flimsy branch and playacting like I'm Hook with my hands clasped behind my back and a imperious aire about me while looking at you and saying-

"Jolly good show Maid Arya!You've done a capital job for your very first attempt at flying and I daresay you're a natural at it!"

-When you explain about being a Loup Garou,which makes my nose wrinkle in confusion until you say werewolf,and a big smile lights up my face and I nod-

"The Indians would love you Arya!They really like animals,they have these spirit animals they call totems,and would be very happy to meet a girl who can turn into a wolf.It'd be a wonderful g..."

-The momentyou mention Tag he perks right up the thought he was having goes right out of his head and he nods then laughs,lightly tapping you on the top of the head,and leaps off the branch,freefalling almost all the way to the ground,then swooping back upward at the last possible second and hovering there even with you but well out of reach laughing loudly-

"Tag!You're it!!!!!"

-then twists in midair and flies away while laughing like a,well,child having fun and heading toward the house where the adults are sitting on the porch-

[Arya Loup Garou]

I snorted a little more cause I was laughing as I watched Peter walk across the branch. He was so good, he musta been doing this for a real long time. I laughed some more, snorting again cause I was a wolf. He was being silly. I tossed my head up and yipped, then played along by dipping my head like I was bowing or something. Which I woulda done if I was a girl instead of the wolf right now."Thank you, Sir Peter!"

I wondered if I could still fly as a little girl. I was flying now, well, I was just kinda balancing on the branch carefully. But I bet if I tried again I could do it. I could fly. I smiled real big. "Really?!? I never met any Indians before. I wanna meet them! Do you any Indians, Peter?"

I was excited he wanted to play tag, and so was he cause he tagged me first. I almost fell when I watched him fly waaaaay down. he zoomed back up and all I could think was that I had to run, run, run and catch him. I darted after him, pushing myself off of the branch. It's a good think I was still flying, cause I was too excited to worry about falling and getting hurt. My nose stuck straight out as I tried really hard to catch up to Peter. He was a little faster cause he'd been doing this a long time. But as a wolf, I was super duper fast too. I tried to run in my mind, like I run really fast for real, and make it work while I was flying. It was working! I was catching up. "Hehehe! I'm gonna get you Peter! Here I come!" This was really fun, I liked my new friend Peter a lot.

[Peter Pan]

As you begin gaining ground on him he looks over his narrow shoulder at you and grins that playful grin at you then goes even faster now,as he'd been holding back to make the game more fun,and soon he's flying above the heads of the startled adults you'd gotten permission from to take wolf form and go wander around.They immediately jump up and their jaws drop in complete surprise when I fly out from under the roof of the porch and land on the top of that roof and grin at you totally unaware that I may have just gotten you in trouble,seeing that he's never had Adult Supervision before,and waits for you to catch up.

The adults look at each other for a moment like they were checking to see if they both saw what they thought they saw and had just barely gotten a handle upon it when they see you flying toward them in much the same way I had and,a bit more ready for it this time,they cross their arms over their chests and give you very stern and serious looks as they move to the edge of the porch and say into your mind "Young lady just what do you think you're doing?"

Confused as to why they'd be upset I get on my hands and knees and peek over the edge of the roof to look at they both before blinking a few times and giving them the obvious,to me at least,answer-

"She's flying of course!"

[Arya Loup Garou]

((Since I play Arya's grandfather Cole, I'm going to go ahead and speak for him as well. Since it's not technically god-modding. LoL.))

I was trying and trying to catch up to Peter. He was really fast! But I was getting closer the more I tried. I giggled a lot and my tongue was hanging out as I concentrated really hard.

Peter ended up flying right to Grandpa Cole and Uncle Rory on the porch! Uh oh!, I thought as I came running-flying up to Peter and my Grandpa and Uncle. They both stood up. They were surprised. "Young lady just what do you think you're doing?"
, Uncle Rory asked. Grandpa Cole started laughing. He laughed harder when Peter said that I was flying. That made me laugh too, and I snorted.

"Grandpa Cole! Grandpa Cole! I'm flying! Peter did it! He knows how! He said that the Indians would like me cause I can turn into a wolf. And he taught me how to fly. Like this! But he's really, really good at it. Oh! This is Peter Pan." I kinda had to peddle my paws to move over to Peter, and I nudged him with my nose. "Peter, this is my Grandpa Cole, he's the leader of our pack. That means he's the Alpha. And Uncle Rory is his brother-in.....brother-in...." Grandpa Cole finished for me, "Brother-in-law, Arya." He was smiling, so I was smiling too.

"Well, Peter Pan! I never would have believed it, but I can't deny what I'm seeing." Grandpa Cole laughed again and put out his hand toward Peter to shake. "On behalf of the Loup Garou, and since you've made friends with little Arya so quickly, know that you are welcome among us at the Luna." He kinda bowed his head to Peter. "I doubt you'll have trouble finding it.", Grandpa Cole winked and laughed again in his deep voice. "You kids have fun and be careful. Just give a howl if anything happens Arya." I grinned really big. "Thanks Grandpa Cole. We will. And I'll howl really, really loud if something happens. Promise." I wiggled over to Grandpa Cole and licked his cheek, then turned and flew really fast at Peter. I stretched and tagged him with my nose and trying to fly away as fast as I could. "You're it Peter!" I was having lots of fun already. I hoped Peter would come visit us some day at the Luna.

[Peter Pan]

-I watch the way you and your grandpa and great uncle interact and smile,especially at how your grandpa treats you better than most adults treat the very young,mostly absent of the habit of talking down,and laugh delightedly as you nudge me with your cool,wet,nose while in this form and stand when you introduce me to your grandpa,not completely sure what a grandpa is,then turn facing the roof and simply stepping off and falling three or four feet before settling a foot and a half above the ground,so that I'm eye to eye with your grandpa,and wrinkles my nose when he says my name-

"Uh huh.That's me!How is it that you know wh..."

-with trying my best to figure out how it is your grandpa knows who I am when I've never met him before,while looking at his extended hand not sure what I'm supposed to do with that either,you fly up quickly and "tag" me with your nose then fly off swiftly and I laugh and twist so I'm crouched on the edge of the porches roof like a swimmer pushing off a wall then speed after you even faster than I usually go,though with far less control for sudden direction changes,
and laughingly answer the words your grandpa had said over my shoulder-

"I'll find it!I'm goooood at finding stuff...will there be games?Adventures?"
