Hello readers! So this is my first story/ fan fiction and I am so excited to see how this goes. I love Narnia and this story is going to be based more off of the movies than the books.

Also I am on Wattpad and I will be updating on there first and then I will post on here. It is just easier and faster to update on there first but I will keep updating on here too!

I hope you guys like!

Please leave any comments on what you think of the story so far!

Disclaimer: I do not own Narnia :)

Gale's mother was a loyal centaur friend of mine. We were patrolling the border of the forest that morning making sure no Narnians were near the border where someone could spot them.

Gale was an active, happy, young centaur always looking for something to do. He begged me and his mother to allow him to go with us on patrol, but a couple hours into the patrol we couldn't find him. He had run off chasing a squirrel and ended up closer to the forest border, near the river. When I found him he was chattering away with a young squirrel. As soon as I saw him I called to him and the squirrel ran off back into the forest. I lectured Gale on how worried his mother and I were and how irresponsible he was for wondering off alone. He apologized and I was ready to give him a hug and take him back to his worried sick mother, when I saw what I thought were 3 centaurs on the side of the river, but something didn't seem right.

"Gale lower your head."

"But why, I said I was sorry-" Gale began to argue, but I quickly put my hand on his mouth and motioned him to keep quiet.

He understood something was wrong, as I saw his face go from anger to confusion. He calmed down and let me keep him quiet. I let go of his mouth but kept a finger over mine. He nodded and sunk lower behind the green tree and I turned my head to see around it.

Worry, confusion, and anger rushed through me as my suspicion was confirmed. Three armed Telmarine soldiers were on horse back hunting squirrels. I wondered how they got on the other side of the river, but as I looked closer I saw that they were soaked from head to toe. They had used their horses to get across.

Something seemed different and maybe even more dangerous than regular Telmarines.

My brain then started searching for a way to get Gale back to his mother and get the Telmarines off my land.

I had no other choice, I had to use it. It would leave me weak but for how long I don't know. I do know it will be enough to get Gale away to safety and that was all I needed. I lowered myself down eye level with Gale. I was ready to tell him what was happening and that I needed to get him out of there as fast as I could. But I couldn't, the worry and confusion in his eyes was so apparent I couldn't bring myself to tell him and scare him even more.

"Okay Gale ready to go back to your mother?"

He nodded his head, a bit uncertain.

"We're going to make this a game okay? This is a racing game but there are rules. First you have to touch every tree from here to your mother, and you have to be really quiet. Then when you finish the race, i'll go and we'll see who made it the fastest, okay?"

We had the advantage as we were hidden by the trees and the Telmarines were far enough away so that if Gale ran as fast as I know he could, and kept quiet he would get to safety with no problems.

His mother was at a small cave a couple hundred feet from where we stood but if we just made a run for it the Telmarines would hear the movement and come after us.

I gave Gale an encouraging smile masking the other emotions inside of me. Gale nodded his head this time with excitement and a grin forming from ear to ear while looking at the trees and figuring out his game plan. Then he turned towards me with a smile and said,

"I'm so going to win"

I chuckled and gave him a devious challenging smile but it was more of an amused one.

"We'll see about that, are you ready?".

I gave him a ready, set, go an he ran to the trees one by one. As soon as his hand touched the tree he was gone. He camouflaged into the tree stump concealed from the Telmarines. It was magic, my magic that concealed him. I glanced back at the Telmarines but kept my focus on Gale. I watched the three Telmarines hunt for squirrels and I felt sick to my stomach watching them shoot one and then watch as they laughed together about it.

I turned to see how far Gale had made it and I could feel the energy draining from me every time a tree concealed him. He was at the last tree and relief hit me, but before he let go and ran to his mother to safety, he turned to me.

"Your turn! Beat that!" he yelled,

No, NO, I told him not to say anything. I turned back to the Telmarines and fear struck me as I watched them heading towards the spot where they heard gale scream. They were getting closer and closer. I was too weak to conceal myself, I couldn't do anything more. I felt a pebble under my palm, I grabbed it and threw it as hard as I could at the leading Telmarine and hid back behind the tree as fast as I could. My aim was perfect. It hit the Telmarine with a clunk on his head and he turned immediately in my direction and away from Gale and his mother. When I saw him look in another direction I threw another pebble hitting the other Telmarine right on his armors chest plate but this Telmarine was faster. I hid myself one second too late and in that one second the Telmarine caught my eyes.

I knew they had me but I wasn't going without a fight. I ran and I ran. The only option I had left but I could feel myself getting tired already because of how weak my magic had left me. I ran away from Gale and his mother knowing I couldn't outrun the Telmarine horses but I was determined to lead them away.

I turned to look over my shoulder and the Telmarines were on my heels. A hand grasped my cloak and threw me down to the ground. I landed face down but I stood up ready to run again. The Telmarines now stood surrounding me with no room for an escape. The Telmarine I hit on the chest, unmounted his horse and started walking towards me.

The man was middle aged, with thin brown hair, and a handsome(for his age and if he wasn't so creepy) rectangular face. The stubble on his brown face was apparent as it looked like snow dusted on his chin and jaw line. He had a plastered sneer on his face starring at me and looking down on me as if he was above everyone else.

"It's our lucky day boys and just when we thought our merchandise was low this month. And it looks like we caught a nice, good healthy one too."

He looked me up and down in a manner that made my skin crawl.

I was confused for a second as to what he meant by merchandise and hating the sound of it made a clear scowl grow on my face. He raised his hand moving it towards my cheek and I stepped back and turned my head in disgust. He smiled, amused by my reaction.

"Well looks like this ones got a bit of an attitude. Yes, this one will go for a mighty hefty price. Rick, grab her and let's go we have to get her with the others for tomorrow."

Chest plate remounted his horse but never once moved his eyes from me, sending a shiver down my spine, but I tried my best to conceal it.

The Telmarine, I assume was Rick, got off his horse and walked towards me ready to probably throw me over his shoulder and onto his horse. He walked straight to me but I could see almost a caution in his approach. He walked behind me with a small rope ready to tie my hands. He reached toward my left hand, but I was more than ready. I grabbed his wrist, turned him, pinning his arm behind his back, pulled the dagger from his hip and held it to his neck. He tried to brake loose but I had a strong hold on him.

"Who are you? because you are clearly not Soldiers and say the truth." I said pulling the dagger closer to Rick's neck. And chest plate gave me a strange look like he was trying to figure me out piece by piece in that second.

"Telmarine soldiers carry cross bows not daggers and they never come near the Forest border let alone across the river and into the Forest itself."

It was true, these men weren't soldiers. The daggers, the closeness to the border, the unkempt appearance that I could now see more clearly as I glared at each of them and the talk of me as merchandise, made that clear.

"Your slave traders." I said taking a guess based on that one word.

It was a statement and the smile that appeared on chest plate proved I was right.

"And what are you going to do about it? Are you going to kill him? Go ahead there's more men I can find." said chest plate with a wave of his hand signaling his indifference on whether I killed him or not.

I glared at him and his answer made my blood boil clearly underestimating me and believing I wouldn't do it. I loosened my grip because of the anger, wanting nothing more than to go after chest plate and hold the dagger to his neck instead. Bad mistake.

The small change in my hold gave Rick enough space to throw his head back hitting me square in the nose. I stumbled back holding my bleeding nose. Rick came towards me but I recovered faster than he thought I could. I kicked him low in the right spot and he hunched over in pain. I turned ready to run but instead of seeing a clear pathway further into the forest, I saw the other Telmarine that I had hit on the head. And before I could react, my mouth was covered by a white cloth. I reached up to remove it but as I raised my arm it felt limp to my side and then everything went black.
