It has been a year since we were last in Narnia, I felt in my mind that something terrible had happened, but that day we were meant to leave we were meant to disappear and go back, I am unsure of how long it has been for the Narnian's since they last saw us. But in my heart, I knew Mister Tumnus, Mister and Mrs Beaver, Orieus and so many of our friends, allies, had perished. But today I had to focus on going back to school. The war was almost over. But right now, there was a problem. A driver slams on his breaks to avoid hitting Lucy and me.
"Watch where you're going!" The driver shouts to us.
"We're sorry." I shouted back as Lucy and I race across the street. Towards Susan who is reading a magazine and boy speaking to her. Susan is reading a magazine.
"Susan!" Lucy shouts as we get to her. "You'd better come quick!" Lucy gasps out. Susan frowns and looks to me.
"It's Peter," I said straight away, Susan nodded and all three of us left quickly leaving the boy behind. We run to the station where a stone lion stands outside the station, I give it a fleeting look, my eyes flashing purple. I hear the chanting coming from the crowd that now surrounds our older brother. We push through and gasp as we see Edmund shove through and make his way into the fight as well. "Edmund!" I shout in shock. The boys fight back harder, and I see two soldiers up ahead. I run to them and gasp out. "Please help, there are two boys beating up my brothers, please help," I gasped out and the two men nod and run over to the fight.
"Act your age!" The soldier growls at Peter as they shove them apart. Peter huffs and stomps away.
"Thank you," I said with a soft smile to the soldiers, the two men nod and walk away, turning around my face hardened into a glare, aimed at both Peter and Edmund. I walk away and sit far away from all the people at the station, Susan and Lucy sitting down with me and Peter stalking in front of us. Edmund sets down some luggage.
"You're welcome." Edmund says looking to his brother wanting the recognition.
"I had it sorted." He responds in annoyance.
"What was it this time?" Susan questioned lightly.
"He bumped me." Peter stated as though he had every right to punch someone for bumping him.
"So, you hit him?!" I shouted appalled. "Oh my Aslan Peter," I whispered as I shook my head in disappointment.
"No. After he bumped me, he tried to get me to apologize. That's when I hit him." Peter said instantly trying to make it sound like it was alright to hit back.
"Why can't you just walk away?" I asked sighing, seeing the looks we were now getting.
"I shouldn't have to! Don't you ever get tired of being treated like a kid?" Peter asked me. I shook my head and Susan gently pets my back soothing me.
"We are kids." I mumbled, tears in my eyes.
"Well I wasn't always... It has been a year. How long does he expect us to wait?" Peter asked me, Allora popping out of my case. She strutted up to me and jumped onto my lap.
"I think it's time to accept the fact that we live here. It's no use pretending any different." Susan stated. I watch as Susan looks up and notices the geeky boy approaching. "Oh no... Pretend like you're talking to me." Susan rushed. I raised an eyebrow.
"We are talking to you." Edmund and I say as we look at her.
"Ow!" Lucy shouted jumping up from the seat.
"Be quiet, Lucy." Susan scolded looking at our younger sister with a glare, annoyed with for bringing attention onto us.
Lucy looked shocked as she turned around. "Something pinched me!" She stated before Peter jumped forward.
"Hey, stop pulling!" Peter growled, looking at Edmund.
"I'm not touching you!" He cries out shocked for being blamed until he and Susan jump forward. I myself stand up, a look on my face.
"What is that?" Susan asks, seeing the look on my face.
"Narnia," I whispered as I grabbed Susan's hand and Edmunds, Allora wrapped herself around my neck and held onto me tightly. The train starts moving past. "Quick everyone, hold hands!" I shouted as the train picks up speed.
"I'm not holding your hand!" I hear Edmund shout at Peter, but Peter grabs Edmund's hand. The train races past and the bricks start getting pulled away. The luggage, the seat, the platform, and the station completely vanish. The five of us find ourselves on a beach in a cave. I took slow cautious steps out into the sunlight. I laughed as I felt the old magic greet me and Susan and Lucy smile at each other and run off. Peter, Edmund, and myself follow. We jump into the water and start playing.
I leave the others on their own but stop as I stare at some ruins. "Where do you suppose we are?" I asked as I tried to recall any ruins.
"Well, where do you think?" Peter asked me, acting like I was stupid. I shot him a glare before speaking up again.
"Well, I don't remember any ruins in Narnia." I pointed as I looked at the ruins, my siblings following my gaze. "Somethings happened."
But sadly I knew this was my fault. It's always my fault.
