Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast Page #3

Do you see the signal?

I had my first direct sighting

earlier today.

This is no ordinary predator

we're talking about.

It's bigger and faster

than anything we've ever seen.

I combed through every animal text

in the library and came up empty.

But it turns out,

I was looking in the wrong pl...

Hmm.

Back to the forest!

What?

Mission abort! Mission abort!

That comet that went by the other night,

it was here before.

972 years ago.

And each time it passes

it wakes the creature.

What is this?

This is the NeverBeast.

Once the comet brings it

out of hibernation, it starts building.

Four rock towers.

One in each season of Pixie Hollow.

Green clouds fill the sky.

The creature transforms.

And then,

a lightning storm so powerful,

it consumes all of Pixie Hollow.

- Back home.

- Come on, Gruff.

If we don't act fast,

this storm will destroy us all.

How do we really know this is true

and not just some crazy legend

or misunderstanding?

On three!

One, two, three!

Wooh! I should get that checked out.

Hmm. That's odd.

Ew! My mouth was open!

It's always open.

Guys! Guys, now is our chance! Quick!

Look, animals do not control

the weather.

Ordinary animals don't.

Furthermore, this creature,

with the horns and the bat wings.

An animal that big couldn't possibly fly

under his own power.

Bottom line,

either we capture the NeverBeast

or life as we know it is over.

Nyx, let's not do anything rash

until we know more.

See if you can locate the creature first.

Yes, Queen Clarion.

I just don't want innocent animals

to get hurt.

And I don't want innocent fairies

to get hurt.

I'm not the enemy here.

Both of you are conscientious

and talented fairies.

And I trust you,

both of you,

to do what's right for Pixie Hollow.

What's the word?

She trusts me to do the right thing.

Which is?

We go after it at dawn.

What happened?

You were supposed

to get him out of here.

Oh, we tried, sug.

Giant thing wouldn't budge.

I think he didn't want to leave you.

I missed you too, Gruff.

Sorry to break whatever this is up.

But what happened

to doing the right thing?

Nyx got there first.

And?

And...

Nyx found this harebrained legend

about a creature called

the "NeverBeast"

who builds rock towers and shoots

lightning to destroy Pixie Hollow.

So now she thinks

he's some kind of monster.

I know. Crazy, right?

- Well, early day tomorrow.

- Oh.

Am I tired!

Really? I'm wide awake.

Bye-bye, now.

Come on, guys.

You don't really think

any of that stuff is true.

It's just, I know he's not

what they say he is.

Even if you're right,

it's not safe for him here.

Hey, big guy. Done for the day?

Rest up,

because first thing tomorrow,

we're gonna find

someplace great for you.

Just until things settle down.

Gruff, you see those stars over there?

If you connect them,

they make a monkey.

See his tail?

But if you turn it upside down,

it's a swan.

See?

That one's a squirrel.

Oh, and over there, with the spikes?

Hedgehog! See it?

I knew you'd get it.

You just have to know how to look.

Imagine. You, a monster.

Of all the ridiculous ideas.

I know they're wrong about you.

They don't see what I see.

Gruff?

Gruff?

It's starting.

What is that?

It's so green.

I've never seen anything like that.

Gruff?

Gruff? Come on, Gruff.

It's "chase" the fairy,

not "run away" from her.

Fawn!

The Scouts, they were geared up

and moving fast.

Please tell me

you took him away already.

About that.

I sort of, temporarily, misplaced him.

You lost him?

I got this.

I just have to find him

before the Scouts do.

Wait! He's going to build

two more towers.

One in Autumn, one in Winter.

I thought you said

the legend wasn't real.

Technically,

I said he's not what they think.

But everything Nyx warned us about,

it's happening.

The clouds are green!

Look, it doesn't matter

what Nyx's legend says.

All I know is, Gruff would never hurt us.

Please, Tink, trust me.

I'll take Winter.

Hey, Tink!

Thanks.

Gruff? Gruff?

Just like the other two.

Just like the drawing.

Over here!

It's headed towards Summer.

Gruff?

Oh!

Gruff! There you are.

We've been looking everywhere for you.

Gruff, it's me, Tink! Fawn's friend!

The Scouts are coming for you.

You have to hide!

Gruff?

Tink!

Tink?

What did you do?

No.

Oh!

Help!

Help!

Nyx!

Is she gonna be okay?

She needs to rest,

stay off her wings for a few days.

She'll be all right.

- Oh, thank goodness.

- That's a relief.

See, Fawn, she's gonna be...

Fawn?

Gruff?

Come down.

I need to see you.

Gruff?

Stand firm!

Nightshade powder!

Steady! Hold your ground!

Let's move it out!

You did the right thing.

- Everyone get inside. Hurry!

- This way! Hurry!

Come on, Calista.

- Get inside!

- Scribble, get inside!

- Fly away!

- Get out of here!

At least I loved once.

Whatever this is,

it should have stopped by now.

Just stick to the plan.

Immobilize the NeverBeast,

and the storm disappears.

Does the storm know the plan?

Get everyone to cover

until this blows over.

Help us!

Get to the shelter!

Move!

And secure the doors!

Stop this! I order you, stop this now!

Do you need anything else?

Bring some extra bandages.

Tink. We need to get to the shelter.

It's not safe here.

I have to find Fawn.

Tink!

Fawn.

It's over. He can't hurt you anymore.

Gruff?

He's exactly what Nyx said he was,

a monster.

No, Fawn.

He's my hero.

When I found him in Winter,

he was acting really strange.

Gruff, it's me, Tink!

Fawn's friend!

The Scouts are coming for you.

You have to hide!

Gruff?

If he hadn't pushed me away,

I would've been crushed by the tree.

I could have been killed.

Or worse.

He was protecting you.

He saved my life.

And I betrayed him.

Where are you going?

To do the right thing.

Hang tight, Gruff!

We're getting you out of here!

We need help.

Pull harder!

Oh, for goodness' sake,

there is an easier way to do this.

Thank you.

Go! Take cover!

Come on, Gruff!

Gruff, let's go!

Gruff?

- Come on, Fawn!

- Get out of there!

Life or death moment, here!

Listen to me.

You're having a reaction

to the Nightshade.

You can see my glow!

Don't worry, Gruff.

I'm gonna get you out of here.

Well, I did not see that coming.

Nyx got it backwards.

He's not here to destroy us.

The towers,

they draw in the lightning,

so he can collect it!

It's what he's been preparing for

the whole time!

I understand.

We're going to the towers.

- No!

- It's too dangerous.

For once, my head and heart,

they're actually telling me

to do the same thing.

Fawn, you can't!

It's okay.

That said, if things don't go well,

Sil, you can have my rock collection.

Oh.

All right, big guy.

Just follow my glow.

Okay, Gruff! That's it!

Pull up!

I'm up here! Higher!

Gruff, fly higher!

You okay?

Oh!

Is that Fawn?

Two down, two to go!

One more, Gruff!

No!

Gruff!

Nyx!

What are you doing?

Saving Pixie Hollow!

No, he was saving Pixie Hollow.
