Literally. Peter Pan and Tinkerbell swoop in with a rescue whisking us off to Neverland. At first it's all glitter and good times on an island straight out of a daydream...until they mention a magical clock they've been hunting.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(51 51 51 1)>The same clock I need to fulfill my destiny.</span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(0 0 0 0); color: rgba(51 51 51 1)>So we do what any desperate main characters would do-we steal their boat and vanish into the night to get a jump on finding the clock.
