Intro
The night was as black as coal, for the moon was behind a thick wad of clouds. As she raced through the night on her chestnut horse, the moon began to shine through the clouds. The diamond in her necklace glinted against the gold chain in the light. She looked up at the sky, and then around at her surroundings. She slowed the horse to a trot and began to relax. Suddenly, she heard the sound of another horse heading towards her. She chirruped to the horse and the horse flew like a lightning bolt on a stormy night. She bent her head close to the horse and found herself silently praying to the Lord that she would be all right. "I must let Caspian know I am alive," she pleaded. Then suddenly, she saw the town around her, and the castle loomed in front of her dark black eyes. She had made it.
She raced through the town. Buildings and houses rushed past her as she sped on her way. She slowed the horse down and they walked up to the palace gate. "Who goes there?" a soldier said. "It is I, Margaret Genevieve. I am King Caspian's sister." The soldier's mouth dropped open in awe. He suddenly snapped out of his daze and answered in a gruff tone, "You are thought to be dead. Prove that you are who you say." Margaret bent down and pulled the necklace out of her pale blue cloak and showed it to him. The soldier's eyes lit up as he saw the dazzling gem he had heard about. "I will go get the King. He will want to know that you are here. Go on in and a servant will help you tie up your horse," he replied.
As Margaret slowly walked through the castle gates, the soldier went to fetch the King. Once Margaret was inside the gates, they closed back tightly. She gracefully slid off of the horse as a servant came to tie him up. Margaret reached up to the hood of her pale blue cloak, which had been hiding her face, and pulled it down. Just as the cloak slipped off, Caspian stopped in his haste to meet her. He looked at the face of his sister. The guard froze also, marveled by Margaret's serenity and beauty.
She was very pale, with rosy lips, and beautiful dark black eyes. Her hair was jet black, and fell in ringlets all the way to her waist. She turned in time to see Caspian and the guard frozen in shock. She suddenly laughed and raced towards her brother. Caspian snapped out of his daze and ran towards his long lost sister. They collided in a huge hug as Caspian picked Margaret off her feet and swung her around. "Oh how I have missed you so Maggie!" he cried. "And I you," Margaret replied, with tears in her eyes.
