A wise man once said "Everyone has a story to tell and every story starts somewhere" and that is especially true in Neverland.

Every Indian, every fairy, every mermaid, every lost boy has a story to tell-even Peter Pan has a story to tell, even though he'll never share it.

But we're here to talk about 20 kids specifically-20 lost kids who avoid Pan and his followers at all costs, and keep to themselves.

The first of these kids to appear in Neverland was Harriet Alice Jones, the eldest child of Killian Jones, also known as, Captain Hook.

She was ten years old when Pan's shadow came and took her away from The Jolly Roger.

Away from her father.

Away from her brother and sister.

Away from her best and only friend.

Away from her home.

His shadow came for Harriet after she became frustrated with her father for various reasons:

He was always busy with the ship and the crew, and with Harry and CJ.

He was always hiding himself away in his room to drink when he got sad and Harriet didn't like it one bit.

She just wanted her daddy to talk to her when he was sad instead of hiding away and drinking himself silly. Harriet just wanted her daddy to feel better-she didn't like it when he was sad and she knew her siblings didn't like it either.

So, Harriet tried to get him to let her in his room during one of his bad days but he just kept telling her to go away and that made her mad.

Harriet ended up snapping at him, saying that if he wanted to be alone so badly then he shouldn't have had kids and proceeded to tell him not to talk to her ever again, if he didn't want her around. She then ended up stomping back to her and CJ's shared room, and slammed the door-not knowing how badly her words had hurt her father.

She was furious with him-he was always going on about how she and her siblings could always go to him when they were sad or hurt, yet he never went to one of them when he was!

What a fricking hypocrite!

Harriet continued to fume about how infuriating her father was and snapped at any one who dared to enter her room for the rest of the day-including CJ, Harry, the twins, and Sammy.

She also refused to leave her room at dinner time and snapped at CJ and Harry when they told her she should apologize for hurting Daddy's feelings, which resulted in CJ sleeping in The boys' room that night.

Unbeknownst to Harriet, that was the last thing she would say to her father for a very long time because that night, Pan's shadow took advantage of Harriet's vulnerability and snatched her up in the dead of night-when everyone was already asleep.

She woke up a few miles away from Neverland in the shadow's grasp and immediately started to fight to free herself from the creature's grasp but to no avail.
