Another War (2nd Book of the Aidan & Aniera Series)

What Happened to Narnia?

Ani's POV

After saving the dwarf, who we found out to be named Trumpkin, we all headed to find other Narnians. We are in a boat, but you can see all the trees. They are so still... I am so bored that I am playing with some snow. I made a bunny and made it hop to Lucy where it exploded and created a snowfall. Trumpkin looks at me and my brother, who was playing with fire, in astonishment.

"How do you two do that?" He asked as well as backing a little farther from Aidan. (I would too if there was someone with fire next to me!)

"It's our gift from our mother and father." Aidan answered.

Lucy was looking up at the snow but also at the trees. 

"They're so still." She said. I agree totally.

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

"They used to dance," I said sadly. What happened to our kingdom?

Time Skippy

Once we finally got back on land, we saw a big bear. Lucy immediately went to it, thinking it was friendly, she said hello. That bear obviously had a hungry look in his eye. 

"Lucy stop!" But she didn't listen. Then the bear charged at her. Susan drew her arrow and yelled. I was about to freeze his feet, but an arrow killed the bear. It was not Susan, but it was Trumpkin. Lucy thanked him.

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

"He probably didn't talk." 

"He was a wild." Trumpkin said. 

Sorry But Another Time Skip

Aidan's POV

After we made camp, we fell asleep. Well except me, Susan, Lucy, and probably Ani.

"Did you miss it here?" Lucy asked.

"Of course." Susan replied. I really wish that our relationship worked out. I really miss Susan. Once they all fell asleep, I put my hand in Susan's and kissed her cheek. Then I let go of her and I fell asleep.

I woke up to the others sitting up. But it was only my sister and Lucy. We all went around and we saw a dryad. We all waved and turned where the trees were clearing a path for us. Then we saw Father.

"Father!"

"Aslan!"

Ani and I both turned into lions and nuzzled him. I missed him.

"Why didn't you help us?" Lucy asked.

"Things don't happen the same way twice." Then we heard a snap. 

Instantly we all woke up. Then we heard a growl. I looked at Ani and we both knew what we were thinking. That is not Father. But Lucy was already in search.

"Stay here and get the others up. I'll get her." Ani said as she grabbed her sword and ran after Lucy. 

I started with Peter. He instantly got up and ran for them. He is good for my sister.

Ani's POV

I saw Lucy behind a bush and peeking out while saying Father's name. Then I reached and grabbed her, covered her mouth, and then pulling her down. I put my finger to my lips and I quietly drew my sword. I was about to attack the follower of the witch, but then a boy attacked me. 

I blocked every swing he took. He was good, but not that good. Probably considering that I've been with a sword my entire life. Then I disarmed him. But I did not see the tree next to him. I swung my sword at him but he ducked at it got stuck in the tree. He kicked my side and I came crashing down. Then another sword came in the battle. Peter! He got disarmed as well because he was distracted. I finally had enough. I made my hands glow a royal blue.

I made a big block of ice and it pushed him into a tree. Then I tied him there with the ice. The boy was staring at me in shock. I made an ice sword and I heard a,

"NO STOP!" Lucy came running. I made the sword disappear, but there was still a vortex of snow running across my hands and wrists. Aidan came too and made fire come out of his hands. 

"Prince Caspian?" He asked. 

"Yes. And who are you?" 

"Peter! Aniera! Aidan!" Susan yelled.

Caspian looked at my sword, then at our hands,"True King Aidan. True Queen Aniera. High King Peter," Caspian gasped in realization.

"I believed you called," Aidan replied while putting out the fire. I did the same with the snow.

"Yes, but I thought you'd be older," Caspian said.

"Well we could come back in a few years," I said.

"No, it's alright. You weren't what I expected," Caspian said while looking at Susan. 

"Neither are you," Ed said while looking at a minotaur.

"A common enemy unites the oldest of foes," a badger said. Then a mouse came forward.

"We've anxiously awaited your return, Your Majesties," the mouse said, "Our hearts and swords are at your service."

"Oh my gosh, he's so cute!" Lucy squealed to me. I nodded my head vigorously.

"Who said that?!?" Reepicheep, the mouse, yelled.

"Sorry," we both said. 

"Oh, uh, Your Majesty, with the greatest respect, I do believe courageous, courteous, or chivalrous may well befit a knight of Narnia," Reepicheep explained. 

"Well at least we know some of you can handle a blade," Peter said. What's happening to Peter?

"Yes indeed! And I have recently put in into good use, securing weapons for your army sire." Reepicheep replied. 

"Good, because we are going to need every sword we can get," Aidan said. 

"Well then, you probably want yours back," Caspian said while giving me my sword. I nodded in thanks. Then we took off to the other Narnians.
