Juan had positioned himself on the
rock and opened the magical storybook up to the first page which is a
story of a pixie fairy named Tinker Bell. At that moment, bright
lights with tinkling bells sprung from book right in front of Juan’s
eyes. He fell backwards off the rock, and staring right in front of him
were a tiny little creature buzzing and fleeting around his face. Juan
pulled himself back upon the rock and looked so curiously for he could
not believe what was in front of him. For a moment he opened his mouth
and he uttered these words, “ I think I am looking at a fairy and the
name of Tinker Bell comes to my mind.”
At
that
moment, Tinker Bell glowed all with her might to glamor for him to see
her so that she could talk to him. Tinker Bell was so excited because
Juan had turned to her story first instead of going to the middle or
the back of the book first. Tinker Bell then replied to Juan, “Hello
Juan, I am Tinker Bell, you do remember me from your childhood?”
As
Juan
sat there with his mouth gaping open, he slowly uttered, “Well, Yes
Tinker Bell, I do recall you, but I thought you were make-believe.”
This made
Tinker
Bell angry so she shook her fairy dust at him. “ No, Juan, I am real,
if you believe in fairies, I am real and alive. Juan, do you believe in
fairies?” As she spoke those words, she told him that if he would sit
and listen to her story that at the end of her story, she would give
him a piece of material to help him build a raft to go home. So Tinker
Bell sat upon Juan's shoulder and began her story.
"God
also created faeries, sprites, elves, pixies and
fairy-folk upon this beautiful Earth. We are mystical and magical
humanoid creatures that live among trees, flowers, grass, underground,
in the hills, in bodies of water or even with the humans and their
habitats. This is how my life begun, and my name is Tinker Bell."
"I am a small pixie fairy
that was born in the meadows of Never land as Tinker Bell explained. I
am small for my size but i am the most beautiful pixie fairy
of my clan. I have amethyst colored eyes and golden sunflower
colored hair."
As
Tinker
Bell continued, "I live among Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, Tiger Lily and
even Captain Hook in Never Land. However, my true loyalties lie with
Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. One day in Never Land, I came very close
to not existing any more."
Juan interrupted Tinker,
"What!" Juan exclaimed, "That you almost died,Tinker Bell?" Tinker Bell
resumed,"Well yes, Juan, it all happened when Hook’s ship mate, Smee,
was collecting water at the Mermaid’s lagoon.
"Smee
needed the water from the lagoon because Hook was going to put poison
in the magical lagoon water and feed it to the stalking crocodile. Hook
wanted to get rid of him for once and all, because the crocodile had
gotten rid of Hook’s right hand. When Smee returned to the Pirate
ship, Hook poisoned the lagoon water and was luring the crocodile near
the ship. However, Peter Pan and I were flying around in Never
Land just to canvas for suspicious goings on. When Peter Pan, a truly
spirited and brave young boy, caught a glimpse of Smee and Hook with
the water bucket. "

Tinker Bell continued telling her
story
to Juan, "So Peter Pan swiftly flew down to steal the lagoon water for
this was magical and special. Water from the Mermaids' Lagoon
gives the bearer whatever powers that he wishes for. However,
Peter Pan did not know that Hook had just put poison in it for the
crocodile. However, I was flapping my little wings with all my might
and strength to catch up to Peter Pan to warn him, because I have fairy
supersonic hearing and I had overheard the evil plan of Hook and Smee."
"Peter Pan was floating right
above Hook and Smee as
to taunt them in his bold and daring feat. He started to lift the
bucket to his mouth to take a drink of the water. So I called upon my
clan for their fairy strength, flew through the air as quickly as any
fairy ever had done and wedged myself between his lips and the water."
Peter Pan dropped the
bucket, “Tink, why have
you done this trick?" "I have stolen Hook’s lagoon water and I was
going to drink it in front of him," as Peter explained.
"I started to fall to the ground
for the poison had soaked me
completely and I knew that I was going to die. I told Peter Pan as he
caught me in midair, that the water was poisoned and Hook was giving it
to the crocodile to get rid of him."
I looked up into my Peter’s eyes
and said to
him, “ If you and all the children believe in me, then I will not die.”
At that moment, Peter muscled up all the air inside of his body and
yelled out to all the real children in the world and all across Never
Land. “Do you believe in fairies, if you believe, then clap your hands
to save my Tinker Bell.”
As I was fading
fast into eternal death, I sprung
forth from Peter’s hand for I heard a thunderous roar of claps from all
the children of both worlds. Peter looked at me and said, “See, Tink,
we do believe in fairies!” " Well, Juan, I am finished with my story,
"Do you believe in fairies?" Juan told Tinker Bell "Yes, Tink I do
believe!" Tinker Bell then told Juan, "Well, since you sat here and
listened to my story, go back to your camp and I will give you a
gift of my magic." Juan left the book in the cave and proceeded back to
his
campsite, wondering about what he just experienced.

Author's Note:
I take my
story one from where Juan is stranded on deserted island an finds the
magical book of fairies in a cave. Juan opens the book and encounters
his first fairy by author James
Matthew Barrie, The Adventures of
Peter Pan-Chapter 13. I left out the
main characters like the Lost Boys, Slightly, and Wendy which were
captured by Hook at the tree. I added
Captain Hook's ship mate, Smee, the crocodile and magical lagoon water.
I rewrote
the
story narrated by Tinker bell, which Peter Pan drinks poisoned lagoon
water instead of medicine.
Peter Pan's rivarly with Hook alters Hook's plan. Tinker
Bell comes to the rescue of Peter Pan, but in the end,
Peter and all the children rescue Tinker Bell instead.
I
want to bring Tinker Bell back in the minds and
hearts of all children young or old again. Do you
believe in Fairies?
