Hey guys, I'm a huge fan of the Chronicles of Narnia series so I decided to write a fanfic for it. I don't own Chronicles of Narnia in anyway, propery rights go to C.S. Lewis. The only character I own is my OC and my brother owns his OC. So without further ado here's the first chapter. :)

It was a warm summer day as a horse and carriage pulled up to a rather large mansion. The carriage was carrying seven people, one adult and six kids. The adult was a middle aged woman with a very stern expression on her face. She was the housekeeper of the mansion and her name was Mrs. Macready. Now you might think that all of the kids in the carriage were related but they weren't. Four of the kids were related while the other two had no relation to them at all or to each other but they were all good friends and their families were close.

The eldest of the four siblings was a teenage boy at the age of 16. He had dark blonde hair and blue eyes. His name was Peter and he was a nice boy who was very protective of his family and friends. The second eldest was a teenage girl at the age of 15. She had dark brown hair that fell to the center of her back in curls and dark brown eyes. Her name was Susan and like her brother she was very kind. She was also very motherly towards her siblings especially the younger ones. The third child was also a teenager at the age of 13. He had dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. His name was Edmund. But unlike his siblings, he wasn't as nice or as kind as they were. In fact, he could be quite mean at times especially towards his little sister. There wasn't anything he liked to do more than to pick on her which caused him to get into rows with Peter. But he wasn't always like this. He started being a jerk around the time their father had to leave for war and the air raids started. And finally, the last child was 9 years old. She had short brown hair that was just above her shoulders and light brown eyes. Her name was Lucy and she was a kind and loving person who you could make friends with easily. She was also a very truthful person and never lied. And that's what the Pevensies were like.

Now onto the other two kids. One was a boy and the other was a girl. The boy was 15 years old and had light blonde hair that was somewhat spiky and blue eyes. His name was Michael Williams. He was kind and always seemed to have a logical explanation for everything strange that seemed to happen. Susan was the one who Michael seemed to have the most in common with. They both tried to act grownup a lot and they both liked to think logically about everything. The girl was 13 years old. She had golden brown hair that reached just below her shoulders and green eyes. Her name was Kara Brooks. She was loyal to her friends and family and whenever they needed her she was always there. At one point, she was good friends with Edmund but that was before the war started. Now every time she tried to talk to him, he would just push her away. She still wanted to be his friend but it seemed that he no longer wanted to be hers and it really hurt her but that didn't stop her from trying.

Mrs. Macready parked the carriage in front of the mansion and everyone climbed down from it. She then led them into the house and the moment they entered it, she immediately started to explain the rules.

"Professor Kirk is not accustomed to having children in this house," Mrs. Macready told them. "And as such, there are a few rules that we need to follow. There will be no shouting, or running, no improper use of the dumbwaiter. NO touching of the historical artifacts," Mrs. Macready shouted when she saw that Susan was about to touch a statue. Susan stopped immediately and she turned towards Mrs. Macready who continued. "And above all, there shall be no disturbing of the Professor."

Mrs. Macready then led them up the stairs to their rooms. Peter, Michael, and Edmund would be sharing a bedroom while Kara, Susan and Lucy shared one.

Once everyone was dressed in their pajamas, they gathered in the girls' room to talk. Lucy was already in her bed and she had a sad look on her face.

"The sheets feel scratchy," Lucy said as she lowered her head.

"Wars don't last forever Lucy," Susan said as she sat down on the edge of Lucy's bed.

"Yeah, we'll be home before you know it," Peter assured her.

"If home's still there," Edmund said as he looked out the window.

"Edmund, how could you say that," Kara asked with a look of shock on her face.

"What, it's fact," Edmund told her. "You've seen the air raids."

"Ed, stop it," Peter warned. "You'll frighten Lucy."

"And anyway, isn't it time you were in bed," Susan added also glaring at him.

"Yes mum," Edmund said with sarcasm in his voice.

"Cut it out would you," Michael said angrily as he glared at him.

"You can't tell me what to do," Edmund reminded him.

"But I can so stop it," Peter shouted with a small hint of anger in his voice. He then calmed down and turned to Lucy with a smile on his face. "Lucy you saw how big it is outside. This place is huge. We'll be able to do whatever we want."

"I think we should go outside and explore tomorrow," Kara said with excitement in her voice. "Did you guys see the woods here? And the mountains? We'll have loads of fun outdoors."

"That we will Kara," Peter agreed. "And this is a great place for birds and other animals to like stags."

"Badgers," Lucy said with excitement in her voice.

"Foxes," Edmund added.

"Rabbits," Michael said.

"Chipmunks," Kara said with a smile on her face.

"Squirrels," Susan told them.

"See, Lucy," Peter said as he turned to his youngest sister. "Tomorrow's gonna be great you'll see."

"We'd best get some sleep," Susan told everyone. "It's getting late."

"Susan's right," Michael said with a yawn as he started to head out of the girls' bedroom. "Night guys."

"Good night," Peter said he and Edmund followed Michael. "Sleep tight everyone."

"Night," the girls said as they got into their beds.

The next day everyone was disappointed to see that it was pouring out. After they had breakfast, they went into the room that Mrs. Macready had set up for them. Lucy was sitting by the window with a bored expression on her face as she watched the rain hit the window. Edmund had found a checkers board and had asked Kara if she wanted to play a game with him. She was shocked that he had asked her but she quickly agreed thinking that this would be much more fun than the game Susan, Michael, and Peter were playing. Susan had found a dictionary and was randomly picking out words from it and asking the two its origin.

"Alright Peter it's your turn," Susan said as she glanced down at the dictionary.

"Great," Peter said with sarcasm in his voice causing Michael to grin. Susan seemed to have missed the sarcasm because she continued looking for a word. Peter turned to Edmund and Kara while she was searching for one. "Hey guys, can I play the winner?"

"But Pete, you seem to be having loads of fun already," Edmund teased causing Peter to glare at him and Kara to chuckle.

"Alright, I've found a good one," Susan said. "Gastrovascular," when Peter didn't answer she looked up at him. "Come on Peter, gastrovascular."

Peter let out an annoyed sigh and turned to his sister. "Is it Latin?"

"Yes," Susan said.

"Is it Latin for worst game ever invented," Edmund asked causing everyone to chuckle.

Susan glared at her friends and family and slammed the dictionary shut. "It's not the worst game ever invented," she said with anger in her voice.

"Actually, it kind of is," Michael said. "Who wants to learn during the summer?"

"Exactly," Peter agreed. "Summer is a time for fun."

"Okay Mr. Fun," Susan said with sarcasm in her voice. "What do you propose we do?"

"Anything but this," Peter said.

"We could play hide-and-seek," Lucy said with excitement in her voice as she rushed over to him.

"Peter said fun Lucy," Edmund said with a roll of his eyes causing Kara to hit him in the arm. "Ow," Edmund said as he rubbed his arm. "That hurt."

"That's the idea," Kara said as she glared at him. "You could be a bit nicer you know."

Edmund glared at her and Lucy continued to beg with her best puppy dog eyes. "Come on Peter! Please!"

Peter gave her a smile and he started counting. "One...two...three...four."

"What," Edmund asked with annoyance in his voice as everyone got up to go hide.

"Come on Ed," Kara said as she and Lucy ran out of the room.

"I was winning," Ed said to himself as he got up and followed everyone.

Susan ran down a set of stairs, turned a few corners, and smiled when she saw a chest just big enough for her to hide in. She opened the top, climbed inside and closed it. Michael turned corner after corner until he spotted an end table with a tablecloth that reached the floor. He smiled to himself as he rushed over to it and got underneath it making sure the tablecloth covered him.

Edmund, Kara, and Lucy were running in the same direction trying to find a good place to hide. Lucy spotted some thick curtains and as she made her way over to them, Edmund pushed her aside.

"I was here first," Edmund said.

Lucy let out a huff and went to find another place to hide. Meanwhile in the next hallway over, Kara had found a supply closet to hide in. She had only been in there about a moment before she heard Lucy shouting something. Curious as to what the problem was, Kara got out of her hiding place and headed towards the shouts.

"Shut up, he's coming," she heard Edmund say with annoyance in his voice as she entered the hallway where he was hiding.

She then saw Lucy standing in front of him and Peter walking towards them with Michael right behind him.

"You know, I'm not sure you three have quite got the idea of this game," Peter said with a smile on his face.

Edmund let out a sigh as he came out of his hiding place.

"I heard shouting so I came out to see what was going on," Kara explained.

"Shouting," Peter asked. "Who was shouting?"

"Lucy," Edmund explained. "She was yelling that she was back and that she was alright."

"Weren't you wondering where I was," Lucy asked with confusion in her voice.

"That's the point, that's why he was seeking you," Edmund told her.

"Does this mean I win," Susan asked as she walked up to them.

"I don't think Lucy want to play anymore," Peter said as he turned to Susan.

"But I've been gone for hours and hours," Lucy said.

"Now how could you have been gone for hours," Michael asked. "We've only just started playing."

"I mean exactly what I said," Lucy said. "We just started playing hide-and-seek when I went into the wardrobe, and I've been away for hours and hours, and had tea, and all sorts of things have happened."

"Oh don't be silly Lucy," Susan said.

"She's not being silly at all Susan," Peter said as he turned to his sister. "She's just making up a story for fun, aren't you Lu? And why shouldn't she?"

"Exactly," Kara agreed. "She's just being a kid. She has every right to play pretend."

"But I'm not pretending," Lucy said. "It's...it's a magic wardrobe. There's a wood inside it, and it's snowing, and there's a Faun and a Witch and it's called Narnia, come and see."

"Now Lucy, don't you think you're going a bit far," Michael asked.

"Please just come and look," Lucy begged.

Peter let out a sigh. "Alright Lu, take us to the wardrobe."

A smile appeared on Lucy's face as she led everyone to the spare room with the wardrobe.

"There's it is," Lucy told them as she pointed to the wooden wardrobe in front of them. "It's a magical wardrobe. It took me to a land called Narnia. There was snow everywhere. I met a faun there named Mr. Tumnus. He took me to his house and we had tea and he told me all about Narnia."

"Lucy, it looks like an ordinary wardrobe," Michael told her.

"Go look for yourself," Lucy said.

Michael sighed as he and Susan exchanged glances. Being the realistic ones, the two walked over to the wardrobe to examine it. Susan opened the door and looked inside. All she saw was a rack of fur coats. Michael went around to the back of the wardrobe and knocked on it a couple of times.

"Well," Peter asked the two.

"The only wood in there is the back of the wardrobe," Susan told them as she closed the door.

"It doesn't look magical at all to me," Michael added.

"One game at a time Lu," Peter said as he turned to his youngest sister. "We all don't have your imagination."

Peter, Michael, Susan, Kara, and Edmund went to leave the room but stopped when Lucy spoke.

"But I wasn't imagining," Lucy told them.

"That's enough Lucy," Susan told her sister.

"Susan let Lucy play her game," Kara told her friend.

"But I'm not playing a game," Lucy said with tears in her eyes.

"Well I believe you," Edmund told her as he took a couple of steps forward.

"You do," Lucy asked.

"Yeah of course," Edmund said with a smirk. "Didn't I tell you about the football field in the bathroom cupboard?"

"Ed, that's not helping," Michael said as he glared at him. "Why do you have to make everything worse?"

"It was just a joke," Edmund told him.

"When are you gonna grow up," Peter asked his brother.

"Shut up," Edmund yelled. "You think you're dad but you're not," with that said he stormed out of the room.

"Ed," Kara shouted as she rushed out of the room after him.

"Well that was nicely handled," Susan told Peter and Michael as she left the room as well.

"But...it really was there," Lucy told Peter and Michael.

"Susan's right Lucy," Peter said with a sigh. "That's enough."

With that said, Peter and Michael left the room with Lucy following close behind with a sad expression on her face.

That's the end of chapter one. I'll have the next one up soon. :)
