Lilly the Lioness

Chapter 2

3rd person POV

The once quiet and empty field was filled with red gold or cream tents, all of the different sizes. ' Why are they staring?' Susan asked. ' maybe they think you look funny' Lucy replied As the Penvensies, walked towards the largest tent they heard hooves behind them. ' Stop fussing, you look lovely.' Mr. Beaver said to his wife. Peter couldn't help but stare at this beautiful girl before him, she had long brown hair that just about reached her waist. Her eyes were an emerald green that looked like they could pierce your soul. Quickly he averted his gaze as she stopped just in front of the tent.

Dismounting from her horse she walked into the large tent at the end. The three siblings stopped in front. ' We're here to see Aslan.' Peter said raising his sword. All around him the gathered Narnians knelt down on one knee with their heads looking at the floor so the Pevensies copied.

Then the tent opened and a majestic lion walked towards them with his head held high. He looked at the three siblings and their two beaver companions ' Welcome Peter son of adam, welcome Susan and Lucy daughters of eve and welcome beavers you have my thanks. But where is the fourth?' Aslan asked ' That's why we are here sir' Peter said ' We had a little trouble along the way.' Susan added 'He has been captured by the white witch' Peter said ' Captured, how could this happen?. Aslan replied as Peter's head slowly looked towards the floor. 'He betrayed them, your majesty.' Mr. Beaver replied. The Narnians behind them gasped in shock ' Then he has betrayed us all' Orius claimed. 'Peace Orius I'm sure there is an explanation.' Aslan said looking at the three children. 'It's my fault really, I was too hard on him' Peter stated ' We all were. Susan said putting a comforting arm on Peter's shoulder. ' Sir he's our brother.' Lucy said saddened by what had been said. ' I know dear one that only makes the betrayal worse. This may be harder than you think.'

Aslan turned around just as his daughter left his tent, she had changed her clothes. She was wearing leather trousers and a red corset top her sword and dagger attached to her hip. ' Lilly my child show the Pevensies to their tents and let them change. Lilly nodded and beckoned the siblings to follow her, Lucy ran up beside her smiling' Its good to see you again Lucy.' Lilly said as she showed the two sisters to their tents .'There are two dresses on your beds' for you to wear.' Lilly said as she turned to show Peter to his tent. ' You know my sister?' Peter asked Lilly, who nodded. ' We had a brief encounter in the woods when she met Mr. Tumnus but that is all.' Lilly replied she couldn't help but look into his eyes. She had to admit he was a very handsome boy. 'Here is your tent, there should be some clothes in there for you.' 'Thank you, Lilly.' Peter said as he disappeared into his tent.

Lillys POV

I went back to the girl's tent to see them in their dresses, I couldn't help but smile. It had been a long time since I had been around girls, how I missed my sisters. ' Would you like to come to the creek?' I asked the girls who nodded. They took their weapons and put them at the table as the three of them stood by the water. ' Mum hasn't had a dress like this since before the war.' Susan said ' MAybe we can take her one back, a whole trunk full.' Lucy said, I couldn't help but chuckle. ' If we go back.' Susan said looking at her sister, realizing how upset she was ' Sorry I'm like that, we used to have fun didn't we.' Susan said smiling at her younger sister ' Yeah before you got boring.' Lucy said with a huge smile on her face. ' Oh really.' Susan said with a mischievous tone. Then all of a sudden she splashed Lucy with the water, they both start splashing each other until Lucy gets me. They both stop to see my reaction, with a big smile on my face I used my powers and completely drenched them. ' Hey that's cheating, it's amazing, but that's cheating.' Lucy said as we walked towards the large towel hung up.

As Susan grabbed the towel we heard a growl we came face to face with Maurgrim and one of the wolves. Lucy and Susan screamed as I jumped. ' Please don't run we are so tired and want to kill you quickly.' I stood in front of Lucy and Susan as they started backing up I could see her looking at her horn on the table. I nodded as she threw the towel in Maurgrim's face and they ran for the tree. Susan blew the horn then I gave them both a boost up as the wolf was wriggling out of the towel. Quickly I jumped up just as he ran for me growling. I kicked him in the nose as he jumped up, but I was struggling to hold myself up. ' Get back' Peter shouted as he ran across the creek. ' We both know you don't have it in you to kill me.' The two wolves started to circle Peter, as they were distracted I jumped down and reached for my sword keeping an eye on the two wolves at all times. Suddenly, my father appeared pinning down the other wolf, as the other Narnians prepared to fight. ' Stay your weapons this is Peters battle. ' He said looking at me. I lowered my sword and slowly walked towards the tree that Susan and Lucy were sat in. They both had their eyes on Peter who was stood facing Maurgrim. It all happened so fast that the next thing I know I heard Susan and Lucy scream and see Maugrim on top of Peter. Worried, I followed them over to him and pushed the limp body of the wolf off of Peter as his sisters hugged him.

My father released the other wolf who ran away yelping. ' After him, he will lead you to Edmund.' Orius nodded as the Narnians followed. My eyes met Peters as he hugged his sisters, I smiled and him and mouthed 'thank you.' He nodded as my father said ' Peter clean your sword.' He knelt in front of my father his sword in his hands pointing down to the floor. ' Arise Sir Peter Wolfsbane knight of Narnia.' The look on Peter's face was beautiful, so full of pride and I don't blame him. He walked back to his sisters but turned to look at me I curtsied and walked away with my father.

' Do you think Edmund will be ok father?' I asked the Lion walking next to me, as I stroked his mane. ' He will be a bit shaken up I'm sure but he will be fine.' He said to me as we made our way back to camp. ' Lilly' I heard Peter shout my name from behind me. I turned around and met his eyes, he was really close to my face. ' You left this at the creek.' I looked and saw that I had left my dagger, I smiled and took it out of his hand. ' Walk with me.' I said he nodded. We talked for hours, we didn't stop until it was pitch black and he was leading me to my tent. ' Thank you again, for saving me.' I said looking up at him, he was a lot taller than me he towered over me. ' It's no problem. He turned to walk away. ' Peter' I said, he turned around and I kissed his cheek. I pulled away feeling myself blush grateful for the darkness, and hurried to my tent.
