This is how I imagined Narnia if the Pevensies had stayed. I was heartbroken when Peter and Susan left so I thought that it would be nice to see how they could have live, Please review! Disclaimer: I do not own Chronicles of Narnia or their characters, only my eventual OCs. Enjoy ! P.s. the characters' age is identical to their ages in the movie excepts Lucy who is three years older (Peter is 17, Susan is 15, Edmund 14, Lucy 13 and Caspian 17) hope you still like it :)
"Do we really have to go?" Lucy said. "Dear One, your brother and sister have learned all they could from this world… Do not mourn though for you shall see them again."
It was in that moment that Edmund realized what the Great Lion meant. "Wait, you mean, we can stay?"
Lucy's face lit up with joy while Susan smiled sadly, feeling slightly jealous of her sister. The same thing did Peter, who was trying to hide the pain and the agony of leaving a part of his family behind, to not make it harder than it already was. But Edmund and Lucy knew their siblings and they knew how much Narnia meant to them as well.
"Aslan, we can't be without the others. We need them, Caspian need them, the Narnians need them as much as we do. Cair Paravel does not have two thrones but four. Together we will bring back Narnia to its former glory, or even better. I will not leave my family again, I can't." said Edmund, with pleading eyes. "Well, I think that we must add another throne then, for our new king. Narnians, to the glistening eastern sea I once again give you Queen Lucy the Valiant, to the great western woods King Edmund the Just. To the radiant southern sun, Queen Susan the Gentle and to the clear northern skies, King Peter the Magnificent. And finally, to the highest mountains of the earth, I give you King Caspian the Faithful. May your wisdom and courage guide you, Kings and Queens." And just like that, the Great Lion was gone once again.
And this is how the reign of the now Five Monarchs began.
Five months after the end of the Telmarine War, everything was already changing. Cair Paravel had been rebuilt just as it originally was, only with five thrones in the Great Hall. The Kings and Queens of Old, as if thanks to the Narnian breeze, looked much more older than they were: Caspian and Peter looked as if they were an year older and Edmund looked like a boy that had just turned seventeen. And because of the kings' good look and elegance, it was no surprise that every lady of the court tried to get their attention even for a second, hoping to be the lucky girl.
As much as the kings had grown strong and handsome though, the queens had become more beautiful even though really different one from another. Susan, who now looked eighteen almost nineteen, had grown delicate yet strong like a rose with its thorns. Her fair skin let her blue eyes shine even more, as if made of crystals. Lucy, on the other hand, who resembled a sixteen year old, with her slightly tanned skin due to being outside all the time and her strawberry blonde hair looked almost like a nymph made of human flesh. And any person who saw her could not help but to stare at the queen named after the wilderness of the great Eastern Sea. And it was also because of their extraordinary beauty that Peter had grown even more protective of his sisters, whom he felt he was responsible of.
