Parings: none

Author: rampaging bookcase

Summary: "I knew they had changed. I saw them and I knew." A one-shot (?) about the aftermath of Narnia, and how Helen notices a change in her children.

Disclamer: ……Isn't C. S. Lewis dead?...just a thought……and I'm certain I'm not male!

A/N: um…..this is my first fanfiction, but I've had many plot bunnies running around, causing havoc in my head, for a while. I don't know how good it is, but if I stole anyone's ideas (and I might have, I've read so much on that I don't know what is my idea and what isn't), please tell me, and if you don't mind, give me permition to keep it up here? I also don't know if the mother's name is really Helen, but she seems like one. Please review.

The first time I saw them again, I knew they had changed.

"Mum!"

I looked around. In the distance, I saw my children. They were threading through the crowd. Peter was leading, he'd grown more muscled and strong, then Susan, and, if I wasn't her mother, I'd be jealous, she's so pretty. After her came Lucy, who, while not as classicly beautiful as Susan, was stunning in her own way. Last came Edmund, taller even than Peter, slender, tanned and musculed, he would soon be beating the girls away with a stick. The way the four were positioned seemed practiced, like it had become habit.

Then there was the sort of feeling I got when talking to them. It feels as if they're lost, like London, even England, isn't their home. It feels as if, where ever their home really is, they play some important part in it. They, Peter especially, seem like Kings and Queens without a Kingdom. They've lost something, and, as much as it pains me to admit it, they won't find it here.

I knew they had changed. I saw them and I knew.

A/N….well…..is it just me, or did it get a little depressing at the end? It's 427 words, including the A/Ns……um…..all I have to say now is please review, and no flames, just because it's my first fanfiction. Um…..if you want me to write a series of one shots about how they changed, please review and say, other wise……meh…..
