I published this early (there will be one tomorrow as well!) because I couldn't wait to publish the next chapter xx
❄️❄️❄️

I stir the soup around the pan mixing the pepper in. "Is this ri-" I am cut off whenever a horn is blown.

Susan's horn.

I drop the ladle and sprint towards peter and Aslan

"Aslan! That's Susan's horn, they're in trouble!" I gasp

"Yes, child. We're leaving now." He says "peter, get a horse. You too, Victoria!"

Peter and I run to the stables and grab our assigned steed.

"Quickly, Nova!" I nudge my unicorn foreword

Peter and I canter towards the lake not sparing any time.

When we get there wolves are circling Susan and Lucy who escaped up a tree. Susan's feet were narrowly missed by the wolf.

"Get back!" Peter yells, holding out a sword

"Come on!" The wolf snarls "we've been over this before, we both know you haven't got it in you."

"Peter!" Susan screams "Watch out!"

The wolves continue circling peter until eventually one of them is crushed by Aslan.

The soldiers are about to kill the wolf next to peter but Aslan stops them saying that peter should kill it.

Peter keeps the weapon in front of him as a guard. The wolf gets tired of waiting so he pounces on top of him which makes Lucy squeal.

"Peter?" I say nervously.

The wolf's body is rolled of peters body and peter pants.

"Peter!" Lucy and Susan jump from the tree and embrace him.

Aslan releases the wolf from his grasp which then pounds away.

"After him! He'll lead you to Edmund." Aslan commands "peter, clean your sword."

Peter stands and dips the blade in the river. He then kneels in front of Aslan and Aslan touches each of his shoulders. "Rise, sir peter, wolfsbane, knight of Narnia."

A grin spreads onto my face as well as the girls'."

Peter puts his sword away and turns to us.

"Well done peter!" I hug him

"Thanks, Victoria."

❄️❄️❄️

We walk through the camp looking for lunch when a centaur stops and points towards the hill. Standing on it is Aslan and Edmund.

"Edmund!" Lucy gasps and runs towards him

Aslan nods at Edmund and he walks towards us.

"What's done is done. There is no need to speak to Edmund about what has passed." Aslan says

"Hello..." he sighs

Lucy sighs In relief and hugs him tightly. Susan and peter then join the embrace.

When they pull away I hug him gently which surprises him.

"Are you Alright?" I ask

"Yeah, I'm just tired." He responds

"Get some sleep." Peter points towards the tent.

Edmund trudges past peter and towards the tent

"Oh, and Ed, try not to wander off." He jokes

Edmund laughs and continues walking towards the tent.

❄️❄️❄️

The next morning they all sit at a table and help themselves to eggs and toast.

Edmund grabs four slices of toast and finishes them in a flash.

"Narnias not going to run out of toast ed!" Susan jokes

"I'm sure they'll pack some for the journey back." Peter says

"You're going home?" Victoria questions. She had grown to have strong feelings for the boy so wished every day he would not leave.

"They are."

A part of Victoria was relieved that peter would not be leaving but the other part was devastated that the other siblings would leave.

"I promised mum I'd keep you safe." He says "but it doesn't mean I can't stay behind and help."

"But they need all four of us!" Lucy says

"Lucy it's too dangerous. You almost drowned, Edmund almost got killed!"

"Which is why we have to stay." Ed says "I've seen what the witch can do. And I've helped her do it. And we can't leave these people behind to suffer!" He frowns

"Well I suppose that's it then." Susan says and stands up

"Well, where are you going?" Peter asks

"To get in some practice!"

I walk with Lucy and Susan down to the archery range. "I'm glad you're not leaving."

"You mean you're glad peters not leaving!" Lucy teases

I blush a vibrant pink "n-no, I'm glad all of you are staying!"

Lucy and Susan giggle.

"Come on! I thought you needed practice!" I try and divert the subject

Susan smiles at me and turns to the target "I do." She shoots the arrow and hits the bullseye

I raise an eyebrow at her.

Lucy takes out her dagger and throws it, also hitting the centre.

"Well done Lucy!" I grin

"Thanks Victoria!"

Peter and Edmund ride into the practice area on their horses duelling.

"C'mon ed, you can do better than that!" Peter challenges

Edmund swings his sword narrowly missing peter.

Susan and Lucy grin at them and shake their heads.

"Peter, Edmund!"

Edmunds horse rears in fright.

"Woah horsey!" Ed yells clinging to the horse

"My name is Philip." He says no amused.

"Sorry..." ed looks down

"The witch, she's demanded a meeting with Aslan!" Beaver yells

"What?!" I gasp

"Yes. And she wants to speak to you too." He says gravely.
