After a little while of walking, and me nearly tripping over air, we finally make it to the other side of the island.

The dirt path leading towards it had vanished halfway, because it seemed like no one came that way.

This path wasn't worn out like the rest I've seen.

The lighting here was darker too. Like a mysterious cloud was hanging on top of this side of the island.

I look up, but I only see the sky like how it is every day. Gray and simple. Barely a hint of sun.

Peter suddenly comes to a stop, making me halt in my place. No warning....

Be like that then....

He turns a round abruptly, and goes behind me. I feel a little tickle at my hands, before the ropes fall to the ground in one soft thud.

He then unties my gag and I can't be more happy now that I can close my face.

God it feels like I have dislocated my jaw...

"Come on." He says climbing up a ladder.

What? Was that there before?

I follow the ladder up with my eyes.

It leads to leaves.... wait... is that a tree house hidden in the leaves?! Cool!

I follow him up and into a small door.

This sure is cramped...

Who lives here though? I know peter doesn't, because he is really cautious around here. Like if he knows something were to pop out any second.

I should keep my guard up. Just in case.

I look around. There's not much to see... just a small wooden bed and a desk and chair. On the other side, there is a pile of what seems like junk. Just dirty cloths and a bag.

Peter leans against the wall near the bed, while I sit on the wooden chair, pulling it away from the desk.

"So what are we waiting for?" I ask, breaking he thick silence.

"You'll see."

Fine then...

*****Later*****

It has been sixteen minutes and absolutely nothing has happened.

Absolutely nada! (Nothing)

I sigh and try to get up because my legs are falling asleep, wen I hear the sudden creek of the door opening.

Both of our heads jerk to the sound as a person in a dark brown hooded cloak emerges.

Once it's fully up, it jerks to a stop. It takes a step back and closes the door slowly, staring at Peter cautiously.

"Remove your hood." Peter orders.

It raises its hands up to the edge of the hood in front of its face. Slowly, but steadily, the hood falls back to reveal...

A girl?!

Never mind that.... Another girl?!

How many more girls are on this island.

"It's been a while Pan." She has a high, but not screechy voice.

She raises her hand to untie the bun that rests on her head. She throws the hair tie on the floor next to her, and I watch as her light brown hair falls down her back to a shoulder length in light waves.

"Who's this?" She nods her head to me, and I wave at her a little.

"This-" I cut him off. I think I can introduce myself, peter, Thank you very much!

"Narmi. Nice to met you. What your name?" She smiles at me - a genuine smile- and waves.

"Narmi this is Ashe. She's going to be your trainer." Peter said, not letting her introduce herself.

My smile drops. Wait.... did he say she's my new trainer? Meaning he's not training me?

"Wait... you said you were gonna train me!"

"I don't have time to train you. Therefore Ashe, here, will take my place momentarily."

I don't even know her!

"You'll know each other eventually." Did he read my thoughts? I look at him wide eyed.

"It's written all over your face." He answers, clearing my head of any suspicions.

"Okay. Fine. So shes my trainer..."

Awkward...

(queue cricket chirps).

"Well I'll leave you two to it then."

He takes a moment to talk to Ashe in private as I take a good look around. I see a photo frame of Ashe and two other people, who by the outline of them look like boys. I can't really tell, you see, because their faces have been stabbed multiple times with a dagger, along with most of their body.

Ouch. I wonder who those are.

I didn't realize Peter had left, so I looked up, to see Ashe looking at me with pain in her eyes.

Just... who exactly are those boys?
