Chronicles of Narnia~wishes do come true

meeting the new king.

In the short minuets before the guards would reached me I had to figure out a fall prof game plan. I looked around a few skeletons hung on the wall and bones scattered the ground. I would play it incident! I looked like what? Eight? Well I was young. I crawled the the corner an huddled to the wall.

"Who's in here..." the guard spoke perfect English just with a sting Spanish accent. I huddled tighter in the corner. The metal doors swans open.
"Who's... oh my!!! Rubén! Get down here it's a little girl! It's a girl!"

he walked slowly towards me. his arms were hwld out as if to hug me. i turned towards his my face half hidden by my leggs.

"hey. hey there!do you mind coming with me?" he stared at me with kind eyes. i noded smiling nicly. taking his hand he lead me up stairs. And into a grand hall

The walls were build of firm grey stone. A red carpet lead up to the chair at the head of the room. There were roaring fires at opposite sides of the room giving the place a friendly glow.

"You Hines : this girl was found in the dungeons no one knows how she got there but we brought her here for you audience" he walked away from me slowly before bowing and saying "you Hines "
"Go back to you work!" The Kings shrill voice cut the warmth out of the room. The walked towards me slowly and stared at me.
Be a girl. I said to myself play it insistent cry come on your eight they cry at theses things!

"What is your name" he spoke to me quickly staring at me looking up at him I sore into his cold dead mean eyes.
"Emily" I replied
"Well Emily" he stood up and walk way from me slowly "WHAT WERE YOU DOING IN MY DUNGEON!!!"

I shrivelled back on the floor. Before replying.
"It's been my home as long as I can remember. I was born there. I watched my parents slowly die" I bowed my head swallowing hard and I true to look like I was crying but it was pretty hard
"I watched them rot! Right before my eyes!!!"
Te king walked back to the raised platform and turned before he sat saying
"Men of the council, what should I do?"

I had never thought of him as a lung to asked for help. I sways imagined him as one who thought he was always right. One by one the men stood up.

"Kill her! She is no use to you! Kill her"
" Your majesty. Not everyone in this room can be trusted. You killing and eight year old girl. Not great for you image"
"What then?" His voice was snappy and sharp.
"Say she is caspian's daughter that she was ill since birth. Don't make a big deal but convinced he and the boy! You back story is fool proof , sir"
"It is done! No one is to tell the truth to anyone. if I hear the story told I will kill"

I was lead away from the hall to a room that was quilt like the one back home.
A bath was run and I was washed and lunes before I was ready to start living my new life.
