Disclaimer: I own nothing!
Note: This is a pair with A Problem In The Golden Age so you may want to read that first. It's from Susan and Lucy's point of view, but like I said before you have to read the first story first. I'm going to try and keep the chapters together, so when the chapter of that story's up the next chapter of this will probably be up a few minutes later! I hope you like it!
When Calormenes Attack
Chapter 1. The Beginning Of All Problems
Susan's POV
"Peter? Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Edmund asked.
"Well, I'm thinking these girls look like they need to cool off." Peter replied.
"WHAT!" I shreiked and I heard Lucy doing the same.
And then I noticed I was being picked up by Peter and Lucy by Edmund and then they took us outside. I saw the stream coming quickly and I struggled to get out of Peter's grip, but he was bigger than me and I could do nothing. I could see Lucy was just as powerless. Then I was flying through the air still in Peter's tight grip. I saw the water coming at me quickly and I squeeled just before hitting the water, hearing Lucy doing the same. We came back up and it was hard to swim in the dresses at first but Lucy and I managed.
She went after Peter and I went after Edmund, I was having more success concidering I was still a tad bigger than him. Eventually Orieus came and carried Peter and Edmund off somewhere to discuss something of somesort, but Lucy and I stayed playing in the water, for it was quit nice acctually. They hadn't been gone long before people started attacking us. I quickly got Lucy out of the water, and I wasn't far behind.
Then someone grabbed her, and she screamed. They were taking her toward the bushes which I would never find her if he took her in there! I tackled him down freeing Lucy.
"RUN!" I screamed. She saw I was still struggling, but I soon got free and joined her. We knew they probably went to Peter's office so we went there. We found them, and Lucy was crying by now, and I felt like I could.
"What happened?" Peter asked walking up. I fell into him finally letting my tears free.
"They tried to take us" I replied.
I heard a thud and looked over to see Lucy in a heap on the ground. Edmund ran over to her, concern all over his face.
"Did they hurt you" he asked pulling her into his lap.
She shook her head. "Just rea...really shaken u...up. I...if it wasn't fo...for Su..Susan th...they would ha..have go...gotten me th...though." she sobbed into his shoulder "th...they h...had a grip o...on m..me b...but S...Susan g...got me b...back."
"Oh Lucy" he said pulling her closer. I could tell he was just as scared. I was really shaken up too, and I was still crying. It was as if I couldn't control myself.
"I haven't bee...been th..this scared i...in a l...long time" I whispered. I noticed Peter's grip tightened and I wasn't sure if it was more for him or me.
"Just stay with us at all times" Edmund said.
"Ok" Lucy and I said together.
"It has now been confimed" Orieus said. We all looked up at him. "The Queens of Narnia are in danger. You know this may mean battle?" he asked. I looked up at Peter. I didn't want them to have to go to battle for us. I hated them going to battle period but this... this was to much! I especially didn't want Edmund going, the witch stabbing him was still fresh in my mind even 5 years later. Sometimes it would even haunt my dreams. My baby brother being stabbed over and over, and over, again! I hated that vivid image. And I didn't want it to happen again.
"Whatever it takes" Edmund said.
"My answer is the same" Peter said "whatever it takes." I buried my head into Peter's shoulder and cried harder. His only response was to hold me a little closer.
