Milori tossed and turned harshly in his sleep. As he did his skin grew dangerously warm and his muscles tensed tightly. Suddenly he flinched intensely and his breathing became heavy, but oddly he was still asleep. The pounding of his heart seemed as if all of Neverland could hear it.

The stone figure Nefarious had become appeared before him. Milori took a step closer, then another. A sudden cracking noise echoed all around him. Quickly Milori's gaze darted back and forth across the cavern, but the cave was now empty all except for Nefarious and the scepter that stood beside his statue.

Out of the corner of his eye he noticed something. Nefarious' stone self had a large crack down the middle of it. Milori took another step closer towards it to examine it better. Then, right before his eyes, a black smoke emanated from it. Quickly the smoke engulfed him and a familiar evil laugh rang out.

Suddenly the talons of an owl were stretched out in front of him and Clarion was lying on the ground cowering. Milori saw the fear and terror in her eyes. Then without warning she let out a cry and vanished.

A pair of dark evil eyes appeared before him. "A storm is coming," the familiar voice belonging to them hissed.

Milori sat up straight and was out of breath, he had finally awoken from his restless sleep. An intense heat radiated off of him as the cold tried to wrap around him. Quickly he got up and walked outside.

Tiny flakes of snow were falling to the the ground from out of the black night sky. Milori let out a trill and called for his owl. Silently the owl, also known as Phoebus, flew down towards him from his nearby roost. Quickly Milori leaped onto Phoebus and snapped the reins, urging him into the air.

Quietly the two glided over the Winter Woods, towards the border. As they were about to cross into the warmer seasons Milori didn't show a hint of hesitation. Phoebus soared over the red and gold trees of the Autumn Wood. They were drawing nearer towards their intended destination, Milori steering them towards the tree.

The owl tucked in his wings and began to pick up speed as he still silently dashed through the air. Just as they were about to reach the tree Phoebus shied away from its extensive branches. Slowly he hovered towards a small opening in the tree.

Milori looked in and saw Clarion sleeping peacefully. A wave of relief came over him, but he let out a sigh and looked to the moon.

It had been three weeks since he had almost lost her. Every night, since then, he was haunted by the same reoccurring nightmare and every night he would venture into the Autumn Wood to make sure she was safe.

He then noticed that the moon was full, meaning the dawn of the day he had come to fear was upon him. All along he had known the day would come when he would have to tell her the truth, but he still wasn't sure how to say it. How would she react? Would she hate him? Or worse, would she fear him?


Hey guys, here's the prologue to my new story 'King of the Never Owls' (the sequel to 'Quest for the Queen'). I had written this a while ago and I just had to show it to you guys. I hope this makes you want to read my story!

Some notes for my fans who plan to continue reading;

* The sequel is going to be more centered around Queen Clarion, Lord Milori, and the ministers

* There will be some parts that will include Tinkerbell and other characters

* There will be a lot more OC's but there will be only three major ones that will continue to come up throughout the story (Please note, there will rarely be situations that don't involve non-OC's)

NOW IF YOU ARE STILL INTERESTED THERE IS A TRAILER VIDEO FOR THIS FANFIC, just look for King of the Never Owls on Youtube (It's kind of long but...)
