Once, there were four children who stood at an underground train station. They had just returned from a land called Narnia but nobody around them was aware that they ever had left. The children thought that their adventure was over. After all, it wa...
"The mist is back." Susan announced overlooking the island. She had seen it coming from the trees, the others noticed it as well. Lucy shivered at the sight, warding off the tension spiking through her body.
The ship suddenly slowed its pace once they reached the inner parts of the Island. Edmund quickly pulled out his torch and shakenly switched it on searching to find anything lifelike. He would hope to find nothing of the sort.
"Wait." Lucy touched his arm when the light fell upon a huge boulder and reflected off of a shiny surface.
"Is that...?" Susan started.
"Lord Rhoop." Caspian answered her question, right away recognising the sigil on the shield next to his skeleton.
"Oh he must be dead for years then." Peter announced, though he knew everyone had already understood it.
"Poor Lord," Lucy whispered.
"There's the sword!" Ed extended his arm, pointing it out in the Lord's hands. The mist starts rapidly surrounding them, rushing past them as the wind would.
"Men, prepare your weapons! We do not know what we will face." Caspian shouted.
"Do not think!" Drinian warned. "Do not let it know your fears, or it will become them. This Island has many tales situated to it."
"Oh no." Edmund murmured immediately, his eyes closed.
"Edmund, what did you think of?" Lucy asked him frightenedly.
"I'm sorry," he said while rushing to the side of the ship scanning for any sign of horror.

"Edmund..." Peter started.
"Peter, you should know this better than anyone." Edmund stated and couldn't stop. "I have an impulse to not do as I am told. You can't tell me to do things and expect me not to do the opposite! In fact, you've asked me 'when are you going to learn to do as you're told?' And the answer is still unclear, but probably not going to happen any time soon."
"What are you even looking for?" Susan asked.
Her question was answered when a sea serpent launched itself out of the water firing itself down at the ship. "That." Edmund replied stunned by how terrifying it was.
"Fire the arrows!" Caspian shouted to his men. "Keep the crossbows at the ready!"
As the crew members sent arrows after arrows into the serpent, Caspian ran over to the wheel attempting to steer the ship away from the creature. Susan looks to help him as Peter and Lucy run towards the archers. Edmund stood there unable to think of a plan. He knew he caused it, so he would have to fix it. "A distraction." He thought to himself as he grabbed his torch and started through the heavy rain towards the head of the ship.
