Author's note: I'm back from the dead! Yeah, I know it's been a while since I posted a story, but here I am. I been posting a lot of Chronicles of Narnia fanfics, so I would appreciate it if you guys suggested a book/movie for me in the reviews. So, I think that's it. Anyways, on with the story.
Disclaimer: I own nothing except for Elizabeth. That goes for the rest of the story too. Yeah, yeah, rub it in.
Elizabeth's POV
I am Elizabeth Pevensie, twin of Edmund Pevensie. I have a secret that I have kept from everybody for years. I have powers that no one knows about. I've always practiced mastering them when no one was around. I never thought that I belonged here because I was different even if no one knew, but there was one place where it was perfectly fine for me to use them. It started the day of the air raids.
I heard the alarms sounding and the bombs outside.
"Edmund, get away from there!" I heard my mum yell "Peter!"
Peter grabbed Edmund and dragged him towards the shelter.
"Eli!" Mum shouts for me
I ran into the living room.
"Get your sisters and get to the shelter!" She tells me as she starts grabbing things.
I ran into the room I shared with Susan and Lucy.
"Susan, wake up!" I yell, shaking her
She gets up from her bed and immediately understands what's happening. I grab a flashlight and shine it onto Lucy's bed, I see her still there.
"Lucy, come on!" I shout
We all get outside but Edmund turns around.
"Wait, dad!" He yells
"Edmund!" mum yells
"I'll get him!" I tell no one in particular
"Eli, come back!" Mum yells
I run inside after my twin brother and push him to the floor as I had heard the whistling of a falling bomb.
"Ed, duck!" I scream
I shield his face from flying glass shards with my arm and I feel the pain as the shards hit me. I pull him up, grab his hand as he grabs a picture of dad. We run towards the shelter.
"Run, Ed!" I yell as he had started falling behind
We make it to the shelter and I pull both of us inside.
"Why do you have to be so selfish, Ed! You could have gotten Liz killed!" Peter yelled once we're inside
"Stop it!" I yelled at him.
I understood why Edmund wanted to run back to get the picture of dad. We had both been very close to him since we were kids, and now we only miss him more and I hated that Peter was yelling at him because he ran back.
Peter slams the shelter door closed and I snuggle up next to him. I grab the first aid kit and pull some glass shards from my arm. Peter hears me wincing in pain, and helps me tend to my wounds. He had been protective of me since a boy tried hitting on me and wouldn't give up. Long story short, he ended up in the hospital for weeks. Still, I never minded Peter always being overprotective about me. I never liked that boy anyways. Edmund had gotten hurt too, so I treated his wounds and then fell asleep on Peter.
We were waiting for the train at the train station. Mum was pinning Lucy's label onto her.
"You warm enough?" She asked
Lucy just nodded. Mum finished pinning the label onto her coat and told her to keep it on.
"If dad were here, he wouldn't make us go" Edmund said
"Ed, if dad were here that would mean the war was over, then we wouldn't have to go" I said, gently
He slightly smiled at me. After dad left for the war, I was the only one he would smile at.
"You will listen to your sister, won't you Edmund?" Mum said
Edmund didn't respond. Mum walked over to me, hugged me, and kissed the top of my head.
"Keep the others in line for me, alright?" She said
"Yes, mum" I told her
"Good girl" she said, smiling and pulling away from the hug
Next, she went to hug Peter.
"Look after the others" she told him
"I will, mum" he responded
"Good man" she said smiling, and pulling away from him as well
She went over to Edmund and hugged him. She tried to kiss him, but he turned his head. She walked over to Susan. Her eyes were red from crying, yet not as red as mine.
"Now be a big girl, Susan" Mum said
Susan nodded her head.
"There, now, off you go" mum told us
We started walking and while I was holding Lucy's hand, she turned back to look at mum.
"Come on, we've got to stay together now. Everything's going to be fine." I told her
A worker asked Peter for the tickets, but he was distracted by something.
"Tickets, please" she said
"Peter!" Susan snapped as she took the tickets from him
Susan handed them to the worker.
On the train, I fell asleep leaning on Edmund while Lucy was asleep in Peter's lap. Susan and Peter were reading books and Edmund was just staring out the train window.
"Beth, we're here" Edmund said, shaking me slightly to wake me up
He was the only one allowed to call me Beth. I don't know if it was because he was my twin, or if it was because he was my favorite, but I didn't like it when anyone else called me Beth.
Our siblings were already getting off the train. He handed me my luggage and we both got of the train as well.
