𝕰𝖉𝖒𝖚𝖓𝖉 𝖍𝖆𝖉 𝖇𝖊𝖊𝖓 reunited with his family thanks to Aslan and Lady Zyanya's people. Peter and his siblings had given their thanks to Aslan and now it was time for them to meet and thank Lady Zyanya.
Peter weaved himself and his siblings through the crowd of soldiers. These certain soldiers were dressed a lot different from the Narian ones. The armor was more spacious to help the soldiers move easier and was a faded gray. Instead of a lion on the chest plate there stays a mighty dragon. The dragon was staring right back at Peter, causing him to avert his eyes.
"No! We need to have the troops set up here and here! That is the highest advantage point. It will be here where we can see Jadis coming!" A high pitched voice barked orders as if it were an everyday thing.
Peter followed the voice, hoping that they could lead him to Lady Zyanya. He was met with a raven haired girl. Her hair stretched down to her mid back and it had been pinned half up. She was dressed in nicer clothes than the troops and he assumed she must have been someone of great importance. What surprised him the most was the girl could be no older than Edmund.
"Excuse me," Peter broke the girl from her lecture. She turned around with a rather rude expression. Disgust written all across her face.
Susan rolled her eyes trying to excuse her brother's mediocre outburst, "I'm quite sorry for my brother's interruption, but we were looking for someone."
Phoenix held her scowl as she replied, "Who would you be looking for, might I ask?"
"We are looking for Lady Zyanya. I was told she would be here." The girl's scowl only hardened at the blonde boy's words.
"It's alright if you don't know. We can always find her ourselves." Lucy said with a toothy grin.
Edmund remained quiet as he observed her. For some reason her hair rustled and it was not just from the wind. Her eyes slightly twitched and her head tilted the slightest, but he caught it.
"I am Lady Zyanya." Peter chuckled. "What's so funny?" She snapped, staring down Peter. She eyed him intensely, up and down.
"You're a child," Susan could practically see the fury coming off the girl after her brother spoke.
"Peter!" Susan scolded through gritted teeth.
"I'll have you know, I have led many attacks on Jadis single handedly. I have assisted in the retrieval of Edmund Pevensie, and I'm one of the finest swordsmen of my land. I will not be underminded by some boy in another country!" Phoenix seethed. A head popped out from her hair, hissing at the boy. All the siblings jumped, not expecting the tiny-dragon like creature to appear.
"We are terribly sorry for our mistake." Susan explained once she composed herself. "We just thought you would be a little older." There was an awkward silence between the group as Phoenix fumed.
"Thank you, f-for helping me." Lady Zyanya's eyes flickered from the brunette over to the boy with hair like hers.
"You're the children of Adam and Eve?" She asked with a stoic expression, refusing to further show how much Peter's words affected her.
"We are!" The little one spoke with the same enthusiasm her sister had.
"Now you should laugh, Phoenix." The tiny dragon tried to whisper, but was a lot louder than intended.
"Shush now, Jax."
"He can talk!?" The older girl exclaimed.
"Well Su, we are in Narnia." Edmund sassed. Susan side eyed him and Phoenix let a small smirk fall onto her face.
"I think we got off on the wrong foot," The little girl said, stepping in front of her siblings. "Hi I'm Lucy Pevensie. What is your name?"
Phoenix stared at the girl, contemplating whether or not to follow through with the offer. Deciding she had nothing to lose, she wiped the slate clean. "I'm Phoenix Zyanya and this is Jax. Here with me is my sister Phoebe and cousin Arcturus. You will most likely meet them tonight at the celebration." Lucy smiled at her with the familiar innocence her sister had, making a smile flicker on her face.
The next to step up was the boy that underminded her, "I'm Peter."
"And I'm Susan," The oldest girl spoke with a motherly smile. It reminded Phoenix of her mother greatly, but she had to remind herself that her mother needed to be home for her safety.
"I'm Edmund." The boy said. Phoenix took her time observing him, she noticed his brown eyes and how they were much different from hers. She noticed the cut on his lip that was starting to scab over and how his expressions made him seem like he'd been through hell and back. His hair was messy and some strands hung down over his forehead. He had freckles spread out all over his face, giving his face a look of innocence, but his eyes said different.
She tore herself away from the boy, "It was nice meeting you, Pevensie siblings." With a nod of her head she walked away.
"She's an interesting character," Peter exhaled, after making sure she was way out of ear shot.
"You did just insult her, Peter." Edmund said with a roll of his eyes.
"I like her." Lucy exclaimed cheerfully.
"You would, Lu." Peter muttered under his breath, receiving a glare from Susan.
"She helped us and our brother. I would think you would be more grateful for that." Susan argued.
Peter crossed his arms over his chest. "That doesn't mean I have to like her."
"I think she's... nice."
Everyone turned to Edmund, eyebrows raised. "What?"
