Once, there were four children who stood at an underground train station. They had just returned from a land called Narnia but nobody around them was aware that they ever had left. The children thought that their adventure was over. After all, it wa...
The Dawn Treader - what a beauty! It was a part of the Narnian Navy. The ship was commissioned by Caspian as it was his dream to travel the Seven Seas. Shipbuilding was abruptly stopped when the Telmarines started to rule. They believed that everything had been discovered and that there was no point of going out into the sea.

As Caspian was the Telmarine who saved Narnia, he wanted to bring out changes for the betterment of his people, which included the Narnians. The Dawn Treader was the finest ship in all of Narnia. It was a beautiful sight for the eyes - a work of art. It had the head of a dragon as the figurehead lookout and a long deck, almost enough to fit half a town in it.
The cabins of Caspian, and the captain of the ship, Drinian, were at the foot of the ship. There was a hatch at the foot side that led to the cabins. The hatch at the head side led to the galley, the quarters of the finest crew and the port. The starboard side was the most occupied. There were boats that lay on the deck in case of emergencies and also because there was no more space left below the deck.
The shroud of the Treader was of an eye-catching colour of purple with the new symbol of Narnia - two lions facing each other along with the crest of the Pevensies. The ship broke through the waves and was setting off on its own journey.

In the other world, Susan had packed her bag and was on the first plane to England that morning. She was very excited to surprise Peter with her visit. She had missed him so much! That was one of the few times that she would get to ride an airplane, as she had finally saved up enough money for the trip.
"Traveling is very different from Narnia." She thought to herself.
In Narnia, it would take days to travel to other kingdoms that were not even very far while in the world she was living in, she would be able to get to England only in a matter of hours. With that thought in her mind, she fell asleep on the plane, dreaming of her times in Narnia.
When she woke up, she saw the naval officer sitting not too far away from where she was, mercilessly reminding her of the other reason that she was there in the first place. Her mother and father would only let her go if she would go to the British consul's tea party.
Susan sighed. She wasn't really excited for another tea party, especially one with a man who fancied her. She had nothing against the man. In fact, she thought that he was quite handsome. But the idea of dating him did not feel right to her, particularly since he looked similar to Caspian. "Oh Caspian, how I miss his smile." She whispered under her breath so no one would hear. Maybe the dating would be good for her after all, since the person she fell for the most could never be with her.

Back in Narnia, the Pevensies got dressed into dry Narnian clothes. Edmund walked onto the deck, the clothes fitting him perfectly. He kept looking at the mast and admired the beauty of the ship. The Dawn Treader was truly a mark of wonder.
"That's better." Caspian said.
"You ready, Lu?" Edmund called out to his sister.
"Ah! Excuse me, lad? I don't suppose you've seen a young girl around here-" Caspian joked.
"All right!" Lucy said and hit him on his arm.
Edmund laughed before being smacked in the arm as well.

As the Pevensies and Caspian climbed down to his cabin, deep in the Islands of Narnia, evil stood waiting to hear if the news was true. "Sir?" One of the servants said, voice trembling.
"What is it?" He asked in a way that startled the servant.
"Well, um, sir..."
"Yes!" He spoke louder that time.
"The rumor that you heard was true. The Pevensies have returned-" The servant said while quivering.
"What!" He shouted angrily.
"We caught sight of them on the ship of King Caspian, sir." The servant quaked.
"Wait, this could be a good thing. Yes. Yes! I can finally get my revenge on the Pevensies! Especially those younger two." He laughed a laugh that echoed through the island. "They will regret spoiling my plans."
