chapter 4

Hecta

They were back. I didn't know how to feel about it. On one hand I'm ecstatic as I've dreamed about them coming back for many years but how long until they leave again. We was all sat in the Telmarine soldiers boat. I was sat at the front of the boat avoiding looking at them whilst Peter rowed the boat.

"They're so still." Lucy said referring to the trees.

"They're trees. What do you expect?" Trumpkin asked.

"They used to dance." Lucy told him.

"It was two weeks after you all left when the Telmarine's stormed Cair Paravel. I retreated the Narnians into a safe place but over the years they have been found and murdered. The trees retreated so far into themselves that no one has heard from them since." I explained to them.

"So why did you destroy Cair Paravel?" Peter asked and I could tell by his tone he was unhappy with me.

"If you was to come back my spell would have worked again if Cair Paravel was still standing meaning millions of innocent Telmarines would have been slaughtered." I said turning to face them. "I dont kill innocent people, Peter." He said as I felt Trumpkin eyeing me. He knew about the accident when Mr Tumnus died but didn't bring it up.

"I don't understand. How could Aslan have let this happen?" Lucy said making me scoff.

"Aslan? I thought he abandoned us after you lot did." Trumpkin asked.

"He did." I told him making the Pevensies look upset.

"We didn't mean to leave, you know." Cat said to us aiming it at me more than Trumpkin.

"Doesn't make much difference now, does it?" I said as our boat began to come to a stop.

"Get us to the Narnians and it will." Peter told me as we began to climb out of the boat when Lucy started talking to a Black bear.

"Hello there! It's alright, we're friends." Lucy told the bear as mine and Trumpkin eyes widened

"Don't move, your majesty!" Trumpkin said while the bear started chasing towards Lucy as Susan pulled out her arrow.

"Susan shoot!" Edmund shouted at his sister but she didn't. I ran towards Lucy and shielded her from the bear which scratched my ankle causing me to wince when an arrow came flying killing the bear. I looked up and saw Trumpkin had shot the arrow. Edmund came running towards us as I pulled out my dagger and began to slice the paw of my leg and chucked it back towards the boat with my leg bleeding.

"Are you okay?" Edmund asked as he began to help me up and walk me towards the boat.

"I'm okay despite my leg bleeding out everywhere." I want to angry with him the most but I just cant when I look into his deep brown eyes. He then put me on the boat as Trumpkin began examining my leg.

"Why wouldn't he stop?" Susan asked.

"I suspect he was hungry." Trumpkin told them.

"He was wild?" Cat asked as I winced when Trumpkin moved my leg slightly. He looked up at with apologetic eyes.

"I don't think he could talk at all." Peter said making his way towards me and sat next to me trying to help Trumpkin as he offered me a piece of a white shirt to wrap around. "Use that until we find something else to wrap it with." I handed the piece to Trumpkin but he wasn't sure how to wrap around so Edmund took over for him. He then walked over to the bear and dragged it to us.

"You may find Narnia a more savage place than you remember." I told them all wincing when Edmund pushed to deep causing him to apologise. "It's okay, it's my fault anyways." He looked up at me and smile causing me to smile back. How can he be gone for years and the moment he's no me its as if no time has passed at all.
