Chapter One:

Susan's POV:

"Stay, Susan; If not for you, for me. You may not need us anymore, but we still need you without a doubt. "His hand reached out to me, offering me to take it.

My mind was spinning. What should I do? I reminded myself that I had no other choice but to leave, but my heart longed to stay. I tried reaching for his hand before I withdrew. Tears filled my eyes as I shook my head. "I-I can't stay, Caspian. You know that better than anyone." My voice cracked. It tore me apart just to tell him the painful truth, but it killed me to see his face being consumed by sadness.

"I wish you farewell then." He said; and with that, he turned and began to walk away.

It was as if my body had its own mind, because I suddenly took a step towards him. "Caspian…" I whispered. Almost immediantly, he stopped. "Please d-don't lea-" I didn't finish. How could I be so selfish? Here I am about to leave him because of a reason we cannot change and I'm asking him to stay? I didn't expect him to, because I, under any circumstances, cannot do the same for him.

It wouldn't matter in the end, anyway. We'd still end up apart. We cannot change Aslan's orders, even if we disagree. We just have to let go, and do our best to move on.

Caspian began to walk again, and pretty soon he was out of my reach. Finally, he was out of my sight. My eyes were bawling. "Goodbye, my king."


Peter's POV:

"Peter! Peter Pevensie!" I heard someone call my name.

Unwillingly, I opened my eyes and looked up at Mrs. Lenner, still drowsy. "Would you like to have a whole letter about your behavior to Mr. Crawd when he gets back, Mr. Pevensie?" she asked me sarcasticly. I yawned, "No, Mrs. Lenner. Carry on with your quite interesting lesson."

I earned myself a few snickers and quiet giggles from some of the people around me. Mrs. Lenner's glare warned me not to push her off the line or else; but before she could send me away, the final bell rang, signaling the time to go home. Without hesitation, I grabbed my book bag and bolted out of the room, Mrs. Lenner screaming my name.

Relief washed over me as I walked out to be the others in the lobby. I didn't want to serve more time with Mr. Crawd. I didn't want to add anymore problems along with the ones Susan, Lucy, Ed and I are going through. This was probably enough..


"Edmund? Where's Lucy and Su?" I asked him. "Mum and Dad will be here any minute."

Ed looked at his wristwatch that I had given to him on his birthday last month. "They told us to meet them in front of the school around 3. Mum and Dad should be here-" He was cut off.

"Peter!" Lucy called out to me as she rushed over carrying her violin case, Susan right behind her. Once they got to where we stood, I offered to carry the violin seeing that it've been a burden to carry along with her book bag.

Thankful, she handed me the instrument carefully.

"Take care of it, Peter. I just got that from Madam Coir today. I want it in the best condition when Mum teaches me at home." She grinned and I gladly returned the smile back to her.

"Peter!" I heard someone call me. I turned around and saw Dad in the car with Mum, who waved us over. We quickly grabbed our things and started to rush over. "Mum! I have my vio-" Lucy was cut off by a loud crash and the sound of our car's security alarm.

Dad's car was hit from the back by another car. Hard.

"Mum!" Susan dropped her things and ran towards the damaged car, who had smoke coming from the hood. Lucy ran after her, but were both stopped by the school's officers who happened to be nearby.

My eyes widened. I couldn't move. Susan was violently trashing around, trying to pry loose from the man's secure grip. Lucy cried and screamed in agony. For the first time in my life, I was unsure of what to do. What just happened? Everything was fine a moment ago.

Ed tugged on my shoulders, bringing me back to reality. I looked at him, my eyes filled with horror and confusion. I found worry and anger in his eyes. Then, he ran and tried to free Susan and Lu. Without thinking, I ran straight for the car.

"Mum! Dad!" I shouted...


Tears that I hide for the past two weeks since the incident started to find its way back into my eyes. I couldn't recall the memories without the pain and anger rushing back into my senses, though they never left me.

I had learned to control my feelings until I was alone in my room, where I took liberty to release my tears silently to myself. Condolences were aimed toward us. I knew they sent their sympathies our way in hopes of consoling us but in reality, it only made it worse.

It reminded us that we were now alone in this world.
