Tink flew up beside Peter lighting up a side of his face. Peter watched Shadi as she turned to River, she seemed familer but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

*A glow caught at the corner of her eye and she turned to see a boy's face lit up for a split second. A familiar boy...*
"Peter!" *she cried, and ran forward. Her face fell as she approached and saw no light of recognition in his eyes to match that cast by Tink on his face. He didn't recognize her. She'd gotten old.* "Peter, it's me. Shadi."

Peter looked confused for a few moments, he haddn't left for that long... had he?
Peter pushed off from the tree and flew down to infront of her and looked into her eyes, deep inside he could see the once young girl. "what happened?"

*Shadi smiled sadly, wondering if this meant she and Peter couldn't be friends.* "I went away, and it was... longer there, for me, than it was here. You'd have loved it Peter--so many adventures! And I met a man who's 900 years old and still just like you. We went everywhere, and then we came back. And, well... I guess I got old."

Peter was suprised at her comment as a breif flicker of thought crossed his face. "was he still a boy?" Peter grabbed a low branch and hung onto it as he watched Shadi.

*Shadi smiled up at him, but she felt sad. She had her answer, she supposed.* "You look just the same, though, Peter. I'm glad."

Peter beamed a bit, but not as much as normal. "I'll never grow up, never ever."

"I know," *said Shadi.* "I'm glad." *She paused.* "I'm sorry, Peter."

Peter kicked off the ground and floated around Shadi with a shrug. "it happens to everyone... I mean, not everyone can get as lucky as me I guess."

*She smiled up at him.* "I guess. But I hope you don't hate me. I'm not that responsible."

Peter turned back to Shadi saddly. "no, I don't blame you."

*River had been keeping her distance to leave the two kids to talk, but after a while she decided to join them.*
"Who's your friend, Shadi?"

*Shadi smiled.* "Peter, this is River. She's from... well, really far away. And she's got all kinds of skills. River, this is Peter. He'll never grow up, and he has lots of adventures." *She beamed at them. She thought they might be good friends.*

Peter flew up to River any sign that he was sad was gone. "skills? what special skills do you have? and do you have adventures too?"

*River smiled and curtsied.*
"Nice meeting ya, Peter."
*When Peter asked her if she had had some adventures she grinned.*
"Well there was that time when we had to defend a whorehouse from evil people who wanted to steal a baby. Oh and one time I got to walk in space. That was shiny."
*River lowered her voice to a whisper and suddenly looked very serious.*
"And I killed a hundred Reavers once, when they tried to kill my friends."
