"I didn't mean to!" Edmund defended himself as the four rushed to hide. He could hear the steps of that evil woman that's always yelling. He was somewhat sure her name was Mrs. Macready.

Peter rolled his eyes but said no more. Obviously he was a bit mad and a bit nervous, but he was sure his brother didn't aim for the window. That's when Lucy led them into a room. "Hurry!" She cried. "Get into the wardrobe!"

They shuffled in with some difficulty. Susan kept stepping on Edmund's toes and Peter accidently hit Lucy over the head. But they all kept quiet; Mrs. Macready was right at the door.

"I believe they're right in here, Professor!" Mrs. Macready yelled. The door creaked open and footsteps clacked into the room. "They must be in the wardrobe."

A man's voice replied, "I'll be in the study. Send them to me when you find them." And then he walked out. Edmund bit his tongue to keep from sighing in relief.

The doors slammed open, accompanied with the voice of Mrs. Macready yelling, "Found you lot!"

She dragged Peter, who was at the front, out by the ear. "You have all done a terrible thing. Whoever did it will be punished severely." She said with a slight smile. "Now, I will lead you to his study. If you touch anything, the punishment will be worse for whoever did this crime. Come along, quick now!" She urged. Edmund felt like he was on a death walk while Lucy was trying not to cry, muttering something. "Lucy, please keep your comments about your imaginary land to yourself."

They arrived much too soon for anyone's liking. The Professor sat there with his hands clasped on his desk. They all sat as still as statues as Mrs. Macready left the room with her nose in the air.

"Children," He began. "I received word you broke my highly priced windows and knocked over my knight. Why would you do it, and more specifically, who did it?" His eyes scanned each one. Edmund thought thoseeyes lingered in him for longer than necessary.

No one spoke. It was silent until Peter sighed. "We were playing a game. It was an accident."

"Who did it?"

No one answered. Again, Peter spoke. "It was me."

"Oh, really?" The Professor asked. "Or are you merely covering for your siblings?" His eyes flashed to Edmund. "Tell me who really did it."

Peter began but Edmund interrupted. He wasn't the best brother, but he didn't like Peter having something to hold over him. "I did it."

Peter gave him a look but Susan laid a hand on Peter's arm. "He wants to take responsibility…" She whispered; only he could hear her. He gave a small nod.

"Very well then, Edmund, you'll be staying with me for the evening. No dinner." The Professor smiled as he waved them out. It wasn't a pretty picture. Peter had to force himself to keep walking.

Don't murder me, please! It's my first fanfic…and well, please review with advice to make it better. I haven't been able to watch the movies in forever and I've never read the book…so it's not going to be very realistic, I guess you could say. This could be an alternate world, almost. They get into Narnia like a month later in this, I believe. By the way, I OWN NOTHING. This goes for every chapter here out. *mutters* If I get up the confidence to post it…

How about this; I'll publish the next chapter if I get one positive review. Please and thank you!
