"Felix? It's really you?"

"Yeah, it's me."

I ran and hugged him. What did you expect me to do? Give my best friend, which I haven't seen in forever, a handshake?

He hugged me just as hard. We were in our own world and a long hug.

Then the boy next to us clears his throat.

I forgot about him.

"Umm, Felix? You know her?" The boy asked.

"Oh! This is Madis-"

I cut him off.

"Maddie. Unless I let you call me something else. If I'm really mad at you, call me Madison. And who are you?"

Felix glares at me. The boy smirks at me.

"Oh, did I forget to introduce myself? I'm Peter, Peter Pan."

I turn to Felix.

"As in...?"

"Yeah. As in."

"As in what?" Peter asked.

"We'll explain it later Pan," Felix said.

"We will? And Pan?" I asked.

Felix glared at me, Pan raised an eyebrow at me.

"Yes, we will," Felix said in a strict voice and a expressionless face.

I sighed at him. I guess we will. I turn to "Pan".

"Pan is what I make the boys call me. You can call me Peter."

"Ok..." I said at the same time as Felix said "What?! I'm your best friend! I even have to call you Pan!"

Felix was pissed.

"Calm down, she's also the only girl on the island." Pan-Peter, said.

"Shit!" I thought I was quiet but I guess not...

The boys gaped at me.

"Seriously?!" The boys both said in unison.

"That's it?! What's happened to you?!" Felix yelled.

Peter turned to him. "That's it? What do you mean, that's it?!"

Felix was still staring at me in shock when he answers Peter. "She's cursed for 30 minutes straight before... That was one word... Not even 5 minutes... MADDIE! WHAT'S HAPPENING TO YOU NOW?!" Felix yelled, what he said is true though...

Peter was extremely shocked.

"Really?! But, but girls don't do that!" He explained loudly.

Felix paled, knowing what I was thinking.

I was pissed. I clenched my fist and stomped over to him. Passing Felix.

"I'll show you what girls do." I got ready for the punch when Felix grabbed me so I stopped.

"Don't make him mad, Mads." Felix warned.

"No. Let her go. What harm can a girl do?"

"Felix? Let me go or you'll be next."

"Pan!" Felix yelled. "Don't tempt her!"

"Nah, keep going. I want some fun Felix. It's been weeks." I told them.

He sighed and asked me about a kid that tempted me.

James Rays.

"Is he going to end up like James Rays?"

"Don't!" I scolded him.

At the same time Peter said, "What happened to him?"

"He called her a stupid girl and she broke his arm, gave him a bloody nose and lip, she also gave him a concussion."

"How old were you?!" Peter asked me.

Felix opened his mouth but I answered first.

"10!"

"No. Mads! Tell him the truth!"

"Tell me," Peter demanded.

I sighed. "I was 8. He and Felix were 9."

His jaw dropped. "8?!" He screamed.

Me and Felix nodded.

"Ok. Whatever. Let's start going to camp," Peter said turning towards the woods.

I turned to Felix, "Is he like me and Em imagined him?"

He nodded.

We followed Peter. I slung my bag into my back.

He asked a question I really didn't want to answer.

"How's it been back home? How is Em?"

I inhaled sharply. I looked away. I saw Peter a little in front of us. He was listening and I didn't mind. Felix said he was his best friend. I trust Felix enough.

He stopped and turned to me. "What happened Maddie? Tell me the truth."

I sighed.

"Always. I'm gonna say something, and it is gonna be hard to hear. It's been tough back home. Everything changed when you left." We were walking slower. All three of us. "Umm. So remember how much my parents loved you?" He nodded. " What you didn't know is that they love you more than me. Don't say that's not true. They told me everyday. Everyone blamed me for you leaving. According to them I wanted my best friend to go and made him leave. Some think I killed you. You're parents thought I did something bad to you and you wanted to get away from me. After a while they were able to be in the same room as me without crying and/or yelling. I was feared by some kids at school and some kids made fun of me and beat mme. Our crew left me. They only wanted the two of us as their leaders not just me. They also said I was the reason you left. Em was the only one who believed me. My parents were-" I tripped over a rock and fell. Hitting a bruise. I cried in pain. The boys both ran over to me. I grunted. "I'm fine." I tried not to draw attention to the cut that was now bleeding heavily. I had also dropped my bag but the boys didn't see it.

"No you're not!" Felix yelled concerned. "Pan?"

"Let me see it, " he said coming closer.

"No way!" I Told him.

Felix sighed, "let him. You can trust him to fix it."

I tensed . "Fine." I lifted my shirt a little so he could see it.

The boys both paled.

"M-maddie? Why do you have all those bruises?" Felix asked nervous of the answer.

I tried to ignore the pain and answer but I was too hurt to talk.

"Pan!" Felix cried nervous and panicked .

"Wait a second Felix!" Peter hissed.

Peter out his hand over it and green smoke came over it. I looked and the cut was healed and wrapped.

I sighed in relief.

"Now explain."

"Felix, calm down," Peter told him.

Felix nodded.

We sat in a sorta circle.

"So, I left out something about school. It's not very bad at school but I get best up 2 or 3 times a week. Since you've been gone. They kids weren't that bad. Teachers didn't care. They only liked me when we were the trouble twins."

I looked at him and he glared for the nickname . I giggled slightly.

"That's what they called you two? The trouble twins?"

"Yeah... Wait a sec! Felix? Are you g-g-good here? "

He looked down, ashamed.

I can't believe it!

I came right to him and hugged him. "Felix! My little baby devil! Are you ok?! What have they done to you?! Are you really Felix?! How do I know this isn't a trick?!"

He rolled his eyes. "I didn't have my partner in crime for one thing. Two I could get in trouble for the simple stuff, much less our specialty work, " he glared at a confused Pan. "Third, who would I pull anything on?"

I looked at Peter, who was playing with his fingernails, and Felix followed my gaze. He mouthed "No!" I rolled my eyes. I mouthed "Whatever. I'll do it." He shook his head no. Pan wasn't paying attention.

I'm tired of this.

"Felix? Would like to hear the rest of what happened? Cause you need to SHUT UP!"

Pan looked up. "Are you two done then?"

I nodded, so did Felix.

Pan sighed in relief. "FINALLY! I thought it would be hours."

"Chill! It's been almost ... " I trailed off. I knew Felix would feel worse when I got to the rest knowing how long it was.

"How long has it been Maddie?" Felix questioned me.

I sighed. I hate having to answer this...

I sighed because I knew he wouldn't let it go.

"It's been almost two years. I'm 17. Almost 18. You would be 19. Em would be-"

"W-would? What do you mean would be?"

"Shit! I fucking forgot i you didn't know all this freaking shit!" I yelled. I saw Peter shocked and Felix smirked at his expression.

I cleared my throat, the boys looked back. I grabbed Felix's hand, I squeezed it.

"Bad news," his face fell. Him and Pan got serious fast. "Ummm, so it was a week or two after my birthday and a few before her's so we were going somewhere for her's with just me, her and our moms. We were going to the movies, her favorite place to eat and we're gonna go to your house and have our girl's night like we used to. We had watched the movie and we're going to go eat and-and-and I looked over at her and saw a car coming and I yelled at my mom and yours to get out while I undid my seat belt and I saw her was... It was stuck. I reached over and tried pulling hers and we couldn't get it. I couldn't reach my dagger and she didn't get her's yet. That was my gift to her. It was close, the car, and we were crying cause we both knew she couldn't get out. She told me to go. I hugged her and I was literally pushed out the door by her. Our mom's ran to me and saw me crying and noticed Emily wasn't by me. We heard a crash. I ran to her and grabbed my dagger, and was finally able to cut the belt to get her out. She was barely alive. I was the last person she saw or talked to. I am so sorry Felix. The paramedics got there a few minutes late. She was killed. And right before her birthday." I sighed. I hated talking about that night but he had to know. I looked up and saw him crying. Peter was looking at me. "And it's all my fault..." I mumbled.

Both boys heard me.

Felix squeezed my hand. I smiled at him.

Peter grabbed my other hand. He squeezed it and smiled at me. I gave him a weak smile.

"It's not your fault," Peter told me.

"You couldn't do any-" Felix started but of it him off.

"But I could! I should have been able to reach my dagger! I should have been strong enough to get her out! I should have been able to save her! I shouldn't have listened to her... I should have made her..."

"What do you mean? Should have listened? Made her?" Felix asked confused as ever.

I sighed. "She started talking about you that day so I was sadder and distracted and she remembered how we used to sit in the car. You would always sit on the right side and I would sit on the left. She usually say shotgun. She told me to sit where you sat because I was your best friend. I was too distracted to argue. I should have Had her sit there cause she's your sister but I didn't fight it. I have up! I should have been the one killed! It's my fault she's gone! The ONLY person that trusted me. The ONLY person who didn't punish or hurt me. The ONLY person who didn't leave me when you left. My ONLY friend left. The ONLY one who protected me from everything else. She's gone and it's MY fault!"

"The only person who didn't hurt you? What about both of our par-" I cut him off again.

"Where I got hurt today? That was from my mom. There's a ton all over me and about a third of them are from my mom! A third was from your mom! A third is from school! Probably the only reason I'm not dead is because your dad stops my mom and yours. And teachers stop the kids at school when I start bleeding. After they watched it for a while. Your father had only slapped me and he was mad and apologized right a way. Emily helped me after everything! She helped me clean and wrap cuts and bruises! She helped me walk after it. She punched kids at school when I was beat up. No one wanted to hit her because her brother was gone but a 'supposively' best friend didn't get any sympathy. In my case, I got abuse because I was blamed for it. And according to them I deserved it. When Emily was killed, it all got worse. Teachers didn't help till I was unconscious. Your dad was too sad and depressed to stop our moms. I was always too weak to stop them. I started training to fIght back."

"What did you start now?"

I rolled my eyes. "I quit teams but I still do archery, soccer, basketball and baseball. I started karate, boxing and gymnastics. I also learned ax and knife throwing. No biggy."

Felix smirked while Peter starred shocked.

"Do you still run a mile each morning?" Felix questioned.

I nodded.

Peter asked me what I was expecting.

"What about when you get hurt?"

"It's motivation to perfect if and not mess up." I smirked. "So how much are you slacking off Felix?"

Peter started laughing. Felix glared at me.

"Haha very funny. I don't slack off here. Have you done archery with something in the end? Cause I can."

"I can shot an Apple off someone's head, with or with out fire or poison. I can dislocate your shoulder in...4.5 Seconds. And I can hold my breathe underwater for 5 minuets. Drowning me didn't work. They thought I drowned cause it was 3 minutes, and I waited till they were gone to come up. Oh, are you over your fear of-"

He slapped his hand over my mouth.

I licked it.

He jumped back.

"Ewww! Yes I did but don't tell them what I was!"

"What was it? " Peter asked smiling.

"It was..." I smirked, Peter looked excited to hear it, and Felix groaned and glared at me even though he knew I was telling Pan. "He hated swimming and literally started drowning till I saved him. He was terrified and I would push him in the pool so he would learn and I wouldn't save him till he was under water for a few moments."

Pan looked shocked.

"Felix? Not able to swim? Scared of it? I don't believe it. He's one of the best in the island"

"Awww! All my hard work has helped my little baby devil!" I cooed.

Pan was laughing and Felix glared more. I gave him a big cheesy smile.

He mumbled whatever. Then his face lIt up.

"You brought The Bag right?!"

I almost forgot that he knew about my bag that was always packed.

I forgot he had one too.

I smiled. Grabbing the bag that I had dropped by my feet silently.

"And it has your notebook right?"

I knew what he wanted.

"Yeah! I don't leave without it. You know that. Are you wanting me to..." I trailed off because he was already nodding.

He wanted me to sing for them. I would.

"Ok. I will later."

"You lost me. Anyways, let's introduce her to the lost boys!" Peter said to us.

When did we start walking again?
