*100 years later*

Alone. We've been alone for years. The trees haven't moved since the attack. I haven't seen any sign of my father. I was disappointed he didn't come back for me. Cair Paravel has fallen, because of me. Oreius is dead because of me, Mr and Mrs Beaver are gone. If the Kings and Queens had stayed, i think none of this would've happened. I'm not in the mood to see them if they come back, years back i threw my ring away. To many memories. I, now have to hide my face, i have it wrapped in a old piece of clothing, you can only see my eyes. Nightmare, changed his fur color to all black and Mist was the same.

"Stop thinking his death is your fault Anna" Mist told me and we sat on the beach shore

"I failed my father" i said as i stared out into the water in the distance i could see a boat "Hurry into the bushes, it might be the Telmarines" i said as the three of us rushed to the bushes

I watched the boat dock and a dwarf get out and place the anchor. Then three other people get out. I couldn't hear them talking but i could see them clearly. Peter, Edmund, Susan, and Lucy. I wasn't going to show my self yet. Only if i needed to. I watched as Lucy walked up to a bear. I pulled out my bow and slowly got on Mist as she stalked out quietly. The bear turned to Lucy and ran at her, Lucy started to run away towards her brother but she tripped as the bear was about to attack her i let go of the arrow and it fell dead to the ground. The kids turned to the dwarf who shrugged.

"I think you mean to thank me" I said sliding my bow back they turned to me. I had to hold back to urge to run to Peter

"You look like someone i know..." Edmund said as i grabbed my arrow and wiped it off.

"I don't know you. I'm sorry if i remind of of someone" I said putting my arrow back and turning back to Mist.

"Do you know, what happened here?" Lucy asked me I looked at her

"The King's and Queen's left their kingdom. That's what happened" I had to think of a lie about me "Queen Anna and her army were slaughtered. The queen never made it out. The trees haven't moved and won't" i hissed "Now if you excuse me. I should be leaving. And a hint. The animals here, haven't spoken to anyone, since Queen Anna died and Aslan never came back. If i were you. I'd stay hidden" I swung my leg onto the saddle and we took off right when i kicked Mist's sides.

"You should've told them it was you" Nightmare hissed

"Yea. And everything would go back to normal!" I said stopping by a tree. "Nobody should know, i'm the queen if the Temarines were to find out they would have my head on a stick" i touched the tree next to me "The Telmarines, think i'm dead. They think the whole population of the Narnian's are wiped out. We want them to think that." I said

************

I stood in front of a tree. I placed my hand, on the bark. The tree's would normally move and dance. But ever since the fall of the kingdom, the 'death' of myself and my father, he hasn't been seen for years now. My hand slid down the bark. I let Mist and Nightmare go, i promised i make it back to them. That might've been a lie. I walked through the forest, paws hitting the ground. I've been in this form since i left my animals.

"Your strong. Anna, I believe in you. You can't hide forever" My fathers voice went through my head, i shifted back grabbing my hair and falling to my knees.

"I-I can't. I let the kingdom fall. Oreius, he died protecting me!" I said

"All will reveal it's self soon, my queen" It was now Oreius talking. I gripped my hair tighter.

"I can't Father! You both left me! I'm alone! I can't do anything! The kingdom fell because of me. I haven't seen anyone else. For years" I whispered "The kingdom, probably wants me dead" i mumbled

The voices vanished in my head. I let go of my hair, it fell down my back. I sighed and lent against a tree. I shut my eyes until i heard a cry of pain, I stood up running in the direction.

When i reached the area, i saw one Telamarine. I pulled out my bow and arrow. Pulling the arrow back and released it, It hit the third one in the back. I pulled out my small knife throwing it, hitting the other i the back of the head. I watched as the others fell to the ground. Dead. I pulled the arrow and knife out of the soldiers and wiped the blood off them. Putting them back where they belong. I looked to see a man in black clothes, with long hair. I instantly knew he was a Telmarine.

"Thank you, I'm Prince Caspian" I looked at him, my stare ice cold. I glaced to see him supporting a badger. I ran over, picking the badger up looking at his wounds. I placed my hand on the wound healing it and placing him down

"You should be okay. Just take it easy" I told him he thanked me I stood up looking at the man named Caspian. Pulling my sword out pointing the end at him

"YOU!" I yelled he looked at me, scared and confused. "Cair Paravel fell because of your kind! My kingdom!" I screamed advancing towards him

"The, Queen. She was slaughtered with her army. That was the myth" He stated, i shifted roaring at him causing him to jump.

"The only shifter in the land is the Queen." I heard a small mouse say i turned to him shifting back, they bowed

"You mustn't tell anyone i'm alive. They will find out. And if word spreads to the Telmarines. They'll have my head" i said they nodded.

I turned my back to them and walked away.

"Your highness-" I already knew Badger was going to ask

"Aslan. Hasn't been seen for years." I said glancing over my shoulder "I've only heard his words in my head. Good day" I said before sprinting into the forest. Out of site of the three
