*Alex POV*

Tiger Lilly and I ran as fast as we could through the underground room until we reached the door.

"You ready?" I asked looking at her. She smiled and gave me a nod. I pressed one of the blades of my knife into the tree root and the wall shifted into an entrance to the camp. We were greeted by multiple lost boys all holding weapons of different shapes and all of them pointing toward us.

I noticed Pan was not part of the crowd which surprised me, but I decided to ignore that thought at the moment since I had bigger problems to worry about. Felix came to the front of the group of boys and held out bat that he had over his shoulder.

"You really thought you could get out of here with one of our prisoners Alex?" He asked me with a chuckle. "We have you cornered Alex, so drop your weapons, or else..."  He stated, letting the last part of the sentence hang in the air.

I looked down at Tiger Lilly to see that she had both of her knives out and ready to use. She looked up at me and she gave me a small smirk. Good, I thought for a moment she actually wanted to surrender, I thought to myself. I turned back to Felix and smiled.

"Sorry Felix, we have other plans." I replied to Felix and then, not even waiting for Felix to understand what I said, Both Tiger Lilly and I held out or Knives and charged at the lost boys. The Younger lost boys all got scared and ran for it, followed by some wimpy older lost boys. Only a few were left to fight Tiger Lilly and me.

Tiger Lilly took the Left and I took the right. Papa trained my brothers and I to show mercy when we fought, so I never killed any of the lost boys, instead I would aim my knives and the boys arms and legs, causing them to get multiple wounds and drop their weapons. But Tiger Lilly was not as merciful. She went full out, either majorly injuring lost boys or killing them. I was hoping she would take down Felix, but unfortunately, he came running at me.

I quickly knocked out the lost boy that I had in a head lock and turned grabbing my knife from my belt and met Felix right before he knocked me out with his bat. He kept trying to push me off balance but I held my balance.

"Giving up yet Pip?" Felix asked grinning. I froze. Pip? How did he know that? Then the flashback hit me.

*Flash Back*

From an outsiders eye, it looked like an older boy was attacking a poor little girl and she was close to her death bed, but in my family this was a normal everyday activity of Alex vs. her older brother James.

You give up yet Pip? My brother said with a grin.

Not a chance James! I said while spitting out dirt from my face.

*End Flashback*

"How do you know James?" I almost yelled at Felix with panic in my voice. Felix just laughed as I swung my knife at his gut but missing him by inches.

My knife met his bat again and we held out there trying to push the other person to the ground.

"We all know James Alex! He used to be one of us, that is before he betrayed us and decided to run off with one of the others to main world again." He answered with a smirk.

"You jerk!" I muttered and before Felix could do anything, I dropped my knife and knocked him out with my fist. I quickly grabbed by knife and turned to Tiger Lilly who was now trying to get my attention to follow her.

I nodded and we both ran before any of the other lost boys could catch us. We both ran through the forest as fast as we could and we did not stop running until we couldn’t hear the boys anymore.

"Where are we going?" I asked her as we finally stopped running, and instead started walking at a fast pace.

"Home" She muttered quietly. I stopped.

"Wait you mean the main world?" I asked her. She shook her head.

"No, my home, with my tribe." She answered. Of course, she wanted to get back home. I thought to myself.

We walked the rest of the way to her tribe. When we got there we were greeted by two Indians who didn’t exactly seem too friendly. I was just about to start backing away slowly but then Tiger Lilly walked up to them both and started to speak in her native language. The Indians moved out of the way and Tiger Lilly and I were able to walk through.

"Where are heading off too?" I asked her as she started on a fast pace past the groups of Indians doing their normal chores and activates of the day while glancing up at us as we passed.

"To see my father, Chief." She replied briefly and then continued on walking through the groups of Indians.

As we walked I couldn’t help looking around at the Tribe. I was really in an Indian Tribe I thought as I watched two little Indian boys running passed Tiger Lilly and I with mini bows and arrows and screaming random things in their native language.

We continued on walking through the tribe until we came to a big bonfire where an man was talking with a much older elderly Indian. The man looked up at us when we arrived and when he saw both Tiger Lilly and I he showed a big smile on his face and ran over to us hugging Tiger Lilly. I watched all this happen and couldn’t help think of Papa and how I wasn’t sure if he was dead or not. The fact that I have not thought about him in so long made me feel guilty but then realizing that I left without leaving a note or anything to signal him of when he returned from war, did not make me feel any better.

Tiger Lilly turned to me suddenly and muttered "This is my Father, Chief of this tribe." She then turned to her father who was now gazing on me intently as if he had never seen someone like me before.

"Father, this is my rescuer, Alex, she was a prisoner too." Tiger Lilly informed her Father. The chief nodded and then smiled at me, opening his arms in a welcoming manner and replied "You are welcome her Alex."

Then the chief turned to the crowed of Indians that were starting to gather around the Chief and he yelled in a big voice words that I didn’t understand but by the way Tiger Lilly reacted, I could tell it was good.

Hours passed and we were all celebrating the return of the Chiefs Daughter and her new friend "Alex".

I had not had so much fun in such a long time. Indians were dancing around the fire while others were playing drums and the chief and the elderly man, who I later learned was their religious guide, sat around the fire with others holding pipes and smoking from these long pipes of reed, making shapes out of smoke.

Tiger Lilly brought me over to her mother, who I was introduced and then made to sit down so that other ladies could rebraid my hair, which had fallen out of its braids that Tinker Bell had made for me, and they also painted symbols on my arm with red paint and placed necklaces made of tiny beads around my neck, and placed feathers in my hair.

It wasn’t until late at night when I had finally had enough, that I decided to walk away from the crowds. I had been looking up at the sky when I heard the familiar voice again from behind me.

"Well hello there again Alex, you’re looking a little bit strange tonight, I got to admit."
