I was awoken by a sound, I thought it was nothing but then I heard my name. I don't know what got to me but I decided to follow the sound of my name and find out where it came from. Then suddenly I saw a dryad made from blossoms, she was the most beautiful creature I've ever seen, it was so pure. She motioned me to follow her, so I did until the trees started moving and formed a path for me. I walked up the path and out of now where a lion appears.

I guess this is the big angry cat my siblings always talk about, he looks so fluffy!

When I made eye contact with the lion I bowed immediately, it felt the right thing to do.

"Arise my lovely child" he said to me with the kindest voice I've ever heard.

I follow the instruction and got up " Who are you?" I asked him curiously. "I believe you call me the big angry cat but in this world, I'm known as Aslan" " I'm sorry I didn't mean to be disrespectful," I said feeling quilt for name-calling him.

" Don't be my child, you didn't know better and I quite like the nickname to be honest." he said chuckling. It felt like a burden fell off my shoulders, I could feel a bond between us was being formed. "Why am I here Aslan, I don't think I'm needed" I said looking to the ground. " I have great plans for you, my dear one. You're very important for the sake of Narnia, my people need you and you will save them. You're here for a different reason than your brothers and sisters, but you'll find out soon enough." Aslan said comforting me. "So this prophecy Trumpkin told me about..." " Is true my child, you will give the Narnians back their freedom." "But what if I fail, what if I'm not good enough, what if I'm not enough, what if don't like me?" "Don't be so self-critical my lovely child, I chose you and only you. You have to believe in yourself, you're the best warrior Narnia has ever seen." "Thank you, Aslan, for everything" I said tearing up. "You're welcome my child". I had this burning urge to hug him and without thinking I asked " I know it's maybe inappropriate but can I hug you please?" "Of course my dear one, you never have to ask. But don't tell your brothers they might get jealous" he said chuckling. Without hesitation I ran up to him and hugged him so hard he fell on the ground, we were both laughing now as I buried my head in his soft manes.

I was right, he is soooooo fluffyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

"Never leave me Aslan, I can't do this without you. I need you and your cuddles" I said smiling at the beautiful lion. "I will never leave you, my dear child, if you need me, grab your bracelet and call my name and I will come as soon as possible. Doesn't matter for what, even for cuddles" he said laughing.

"Thank you, Aslan" " Anytime my child, we'll see each other soon. Good luck my dear one and don't forget to believe in yourself because I do." and with that, I woke up. I looked around and saw Lucy sitting up just like me, would she also have dreamt about Aslan and as if she read my mind " Did you also dream about Aslan?". I nodded and she smiled at me. Suddenly we heard a branch breaking nearby "Maybe it's Aslan and he wants us to come together this time? I think we should have a look" " Yes, maybe. Just promise me that you will stay behind me." Lucy nodded as I took my two daggers. We started walking towards the place where we heard the sound, suddenly we heard a growling sound "Aslan" Lucy asked but I put her head down so the sound was muffled. It was not Aslan that broke that branch...it was a minotaur, I've never seen one in real life but right now it was a threat to my family because he was walking towards the camp where the rest of my siblings were sleeping. I decided I had to eliminate him or maybe scare him so that he wouldn't come back, so I motioned for Lucy to stay back and stay silent. I walked towards the minotaur with my daggers ready for battle when I suddenly heard a scream, that scream belonged to a dude who was now swinging his sword at me.

Dude seriously, if you want to do a surprise attack it's not that smart to scream, just saying

We started fighting and he cut my lip but I didn't notice it, soon I was able to disarm him and kick his sword away but he took one of my daggers as I flicked it into a tree trying not to hurt him.
