This is really the story of "Fawn", an animal fairy who lives in Pixie Hollow with Tinker Bell and the rest of the fairies. Fawn is sort of the St. Francis of Pixie Hollow, nursing injured and abandoned animals back to health. One day she hears a low moan coming from the forest and finds a mysterious creature with a thorn in its foot. She frees the thorn and watches as the animal instinctively builds towers out of found rocks. Meanwhile, the protectors of Pixie Hollow conclude it is the "NeverBeast" told in legend who will destroy them. When the animal accidentally injures Tinker Bell, Fawn thinks they may be right and allows it to be captured. However, when Tinker Bell wakes up she tells them the beast actually saved her life, so Fawn decides to free it. The NeverBeast then proceeds to fulfill its real destiny of saving Pixie Hollow, not destroying it. Afterwards, there is a heart wrenching scene where the beast goes back into hibernation for a thousand years, with Fawn saying goodbye. The last of six Tinker Bell films stands with some of the best in a long line of Disney animal films, especially recalling Old Yeller. Don't let the title fool you.
