Terrains POV
   Walking back into the Howe I feel a smile creep onto my face. Happiness flows throughout my body. I haven't felt this way in a long time, not since I was up top three tower with Edmund. Him telling me that I changed the way he looked at the world. Telling me that if I was gone the world would be broken.
   Peter didn't even make me feel this way. Not even when we kissed. Probably because the kiss was only a distraction from what I was told about my fathers death. Or should I say murder? I do feel awful for using Peter. Using him to only make my self feel somewhat better was really selfish of me. Hopefully he can forgive my actions when we have finished this war.
   Not looking where I was going, I bump into somebody. Looking up to see who I am going to apologize to, I come face to face with Queen Susan. "I am terribly sorry Susan. I wasn't looking where I was heading. I didn't mean to-"
   "It's quite alright Terrain. No need to apologize." I honestly don't know why I have a disliking towards Susan when I first met her. Besides the fact that she always has to be correct and always states out random facts she is a really nice and beautiful person.
   "Do you know where Edmund is?" I ask her, wanting to see the raven haired boy I've grown fond of, immediately.
   "Preparing for battle with Peter and Lucy. I am just about to get ready myself, fix my arrows and everything. Care to join?" I only nod and follow after her. Seeing her figure and noticing her features she is a very beautiful women. No wonder my brother fancies her.
   Once we enter Susan's bedroom quarters she explains how she first got her bow and arrows from St.Nick. "I'm just going to change into my battle wardrobe. Would you like to borrow one of my outfits? Maybe it would suit you better for battle rather then what you have on now."
   "Sounds good."
   "You seem to be my size, hopefully it will fit." She smiles before heading over to her chest. Inside is a bunch of fighting dresses. They are most beautiful. "You also don't need a corset for these dresses."
   "How don't I?"
   "I had my dresses altered when I was last here. Where I come from we don't wear corsets." Not wanting to ask further questions I put the dress on. "All we need is leather armour that goes on our torso."
   "You look perfect Susan. I now know why Caspian fancies you." Susan doesn't say anything. Her face grows red hot when I mention my brother.
   "You look quite good yourself Terrain. Do you have your weapon?" I shake my head. I'm not good with a bow, however I'm very good with my sword.
   "Let's go find Caspian. He probably has a sword I can use." Susan agrees, grabs her bow and heads out her room.
   Looking myself over once more I go to open the door. Just as I open it Edmund is about to knock. Instead of saying anything he just looks me up and down. "You look stunning."
   I laugh and thank him. "Why were going to knock on my door?" I remind him.
   "Right." He smiles looking into my green eyes, "Peter wants us." Taking my hand in his, he leads us to where Peter is.
