she came into my world
and completely bewitched me.
i knew i couldn't stop this feeling,
but i can stop my actions.
and even then...im not even sure.

agin reminiscing. agin reminiscing.

"agin: dialect form of against. reminiscing: to look back at enjoyable past events"

we were walking randomly to be honest. we didn't know where to go and this hot sun was killing me to say the least.

we decided to go back down to the beach and see if there was anything there that we missed.

i had put on my dress, which i couldn't decide if it was uncomfortable or comfortable. a little bit of both i guess.

it came with a thick belt and 2 pouches. one for the bottle, which i was still holding on too, and another for the sword. i had a corset too, just like lucy.  i wish that chest had a bow and arrow just like susan.

"were you some kind of genius in your future school?". edmund was walking willingly next to me, a few inches away.

the sun was so bright here, nothing like back home. i squinted for my life.

"yes, i actually was. what? you can't relate?". maybe it was a little harsh considering he just asked a question, but he's had his attitude since we met and i hadnt done anything to him.

peter scoffed. "he can't relate no matter how hard he tries". everyone laughed except edmund.

"peter don't go all know-it-all on me. its not like you don't have a fight every week for the most random things. wuss".

peter stopped dead in his tracks and turned around. "so you want to be my next one?"

we were all so into peter's and edmund's little argument we didn't even notice what susan was doing.

there was a boat not too far away into the water. there seemed to be 2 men in armor and susan had shot one in the leg!

"drop him!". we all ran up to her, and i wanted to get a better view about what was going down.

the 2 soldiers dropped a...very petite man into the water. his hands and feet were tied up along with his mouth. no way he's going to swim up the water.

peter and edmund immediatly ran to try and save the drowning man. one of the soldiers had this freaky-looking (more advanced than susans) bow and was aiming at susan, but of course she had already taken care of that when she quickly shot another arrow and bam! one soldier down!

i guess the other didn't want to get hurt by an arrow so he threw himself in too. 2 birds 1 stone.

it didn't take long before peter came out of the water with the man. edmund was dragging the boat up to shore.

"are you okay, peter?" i asked. he just nodded in the middle of coughing.

lucy kneeled down and cut off the rope tying his legs and arms together of the dwarf with her dagger. okay, why does a kid her age have a freaking dagger? not like she's going to use it for the wrong reasons but still. i guess my case is the same with my sword.
