Well hellooooo my lovelies~

Marty Bum here with a sequel to "Peter Pan Never Fails, and Perhaps Neither does Love."

Haven't read it? Go to my profile and get yourself familiar! *hearts to you* (For some reason it cuts my hearts and only shows the 3 when I post.)

Anyways, I have plans for this story, glorious plans!

Stay tuned, and be prepared to this shocking and thrilling story!

Remember to favorite and review, Pan sends grumble hugs and kisses when you do~

This is an informative chapter, but one you still must read to understand chapter 2, which will technically be the 'start' of the sequel.

"The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up.

I've earned through hope and faith
The curves around your face
That I'm the one you'll hold forever."

-Wake Up by Coheed and Cambria

Present!

The first few days in Neverland were much more magical than Arabella or Peter could have ever imagined. Although Peter no longer had any of his Lost Boys, there were still the children that would visit in their dreams.

Peter and Arabella had hidden themselves away on the island for these first few days, allowing the boys to have their free roam and play about without disturbances.

Those days were spent in bliss.

In honesty.

And in love.

Arabella promised to listen and stay open minded, if Peter told her the entire story.

And he did, with much hesitation.

Of course, this lead to fights, to tears and to make up kisses; But neither of them were denying their love for each other any longer. They knew they were well past the point of fighting it any longer.

And, as they were concerned, they didn't have a care in the world.

If the members back at Storybrooke had any intentions of coming back and ruining their happy ending, they would have shown up as those clever bastards always knew a way to get back to Neverland.

But they never did, at least not yet.

Arabella, working on her forgiveness, spent her days with Peter in peaceful happiness. Of fun, games and enjoyment.

Peter, working on becoming a better man despite the darkness clouding his own heart, did the best he could to keep her happy.

Both of them spent their nights fighting. Forgiveness and change was not an easy thing, and it would take time. Both of them knew and accepted this, as they had all of eternity to work it out.

Now that half of her heart was in Peter, he grew stronger. She, on the other hand, lost half of her magic. Finally Peter Pan was stronger than her, something she trusted him with.

When the time ran out and her heart fused with his for good, the blackness of his heart lightened just a bit. Arabella's pure heart gave his some light, making it easier for her to trust him.

Arabella had convinced Peter to return the shadows to the body's that had yet to decay and lose their ability to reattach. (Blue Fairy lives!) The rest of the poor souls remained on the island, trapped to the Dark Hallows as a reminder to Peter of the man he was, and would hopefully never be again.

Who said love can't change a person?

But Peter wanted to regain his Lost Boys, a permanent group to reside on the island with him and Arabella. Not that he felt that she wasn't enough, but because he wanted them to have people around to feel like a family. There were no more rules on Neverland for him. With her heart fueling him, Skull Rock had vanished from the island. The Pixie trees began to grow their dust once more, and the island felt more alive than ever.

Peter could live his life as he wanted to, without anything worrying him to lose his ability to keep his young body.

It was better this way. Before, had he admitted true love long ago he would have lost the ability to be young then, as love is something that turns people into adults. It makes them wish to grow, and to mature. Peter's happy ending was having the best of both worlds.

Arabella, reluctant to the idea of gaining new Lost Boys, agreed to allow him to get permanent boys if he stuck to a few rules.

1. If they wanted to go home, he would allow them to.

2. He was not allowed to use his magical pipes to lure them in. The boys had to be completely willing.

So Peter, being the cunning boy he was, devised a plan to follow her rules.

After their days of solitude and happiness, they started interacting with the Dreamer Boys, the non-permanent Lost Boys. He had them spread word that Peter Pan was different now, and was a good person. He had them spread the word that any boy who was not safe in his home, any boy who was not happy in his home, any boy who didn't have a home, would be welcome to have a new home in Neverland. Of course, with the option of changing their mind.

He planned to stick to his word this time.

The word spread like wildfire. Boys of all ages were saying the magic words to have Peter's shadow retrieve them from their homes.

"I believe."

Most only lasted a few days before they started crying at night to go home. Peter, not quite yet strong enough to be kind to someone he felt was betraying him by not doing as he pleased, would stay out of that situation.

Arabella would visit those boys at night, soothe their cries and send them home on the shadow. She would be sure to always mention they were welcome back, to visit in their dreams or try living here once more.

The cries that once stained the airs of Neverland were no more, as they were always silenced.

With four boys on their perm. Lost Boy list that had lasted more than a week and seemed promising to stay forever, Peter started to gain hope that he could make this island the same as he did before.

All boys, after lasting more than a week, are stripped of their home names and given "Lost Boy" names, as a way to recognize and accept this place as their new home.

Chubs and his twin brother Bubs: Two boys about the age of ten, their personalities like fire itself. Wild and untamed. They loved the adventure of the island. The thrill of hunting animals that they didn't actually need to eat. (Imagination runs wild here.) Always together and constantly finishing each others sentences, the two boys proved to be the bane of what caused most of the epic bon fire dances at the camp during night, this time not needing magic to motivate them. The two boys lost their parents to a house fire back in the Enchanted forest.

Gill: An older boy, about fifteen years, who loved the water. He was constantly caught swimming with the mermaids and having a grand time. The group would only really see the boy at night, when it came time to 'celebrate' the day and say goodbye to the Dreamer Lost Boys. Gill was born from Earth in an alcoholic and abusive family. When his friend Eric, a Dreamer Boy, told him of the word of Peter Pan, he was quick to jump the gun and come to Neverland.

Blanket: The youngest of the Perm. Boys, blanket was about five years old and very shy. He was wishing on a star when the shadow brought him to Neverland, but he hadn't missed his home enough to want to go back. The young boy clung to Arabella constantly, blanket in hand and thumb in his mouth. Peter had expressed that the boy was much too young to be a Lost Boy, and much too old to be sucking his thumb and carrying a blanket. Arabella shushed him, assuring Peter that if Blanket's home had actually been a good one he would have gone home by now. She made him entertain the idea that perhaps they were saving him from a bad home, much like they were the other boys. She told Peter that when it came to the boys quirks that he would just have to get over it, the boy was how he was and they weren't going to change him.

Fox: Another boy around the age of ten, who enjoyed dressing as a fox and prancing around Neverland as if he actually were the animal. His actions would cause a lot of laughs from Arabella, and eye rolling from Peter. No one really knew his story. (Cause I'm too lazy to think of one right now, but I like it being blank, gives me a chance to make something late to be like BAM WHAT NOW.) But he was very willing to join the Perm Boys group, asking Peter every night since his first night when he would get his Lost Boy name and become apart of the family.

These boys, by no means, were the loyal and trained Lost Boys that Peter was used to. But it was a start.

A start he was happy to make with Arabella.

Well what do you think of the start to the story?

Ill have the next chapter, actually starting the story, tomorrow.

Stay tuned~
