Chapter 1:
Narnia. Oh how I wish I could go back and she my old friends again. How I missed Reepicheep, Drinian and Caspian...Caspian. I hadn't spoken or even though of his name for five years, and that was only when my little Annaleigh was born. A little girl who needed her father desperately but was seperated from her by another world. I chuckled to myself, here I was 21 and still wishing that the majestic Lion would come and whisk me away to fantasy land. I've told Annaleigh plenty of times the stories of me siblings and I being the great Kings and Queens of a far off land called Narnia. I had told of the Prince and had stolen and had yet to return my heart. I had told her about her father weather she knew it or not. I looked down at my sleeping little Anna and sighed. She looked so much like Caspian, she had his eyes and hair, and tan skin. While she had my build and face, the resmeblence between the two of them was fairly obvious. I was surprised Edmund hadn't caught on but everyone else had. Everyone else meaning Peter and Susan. I looked up at the painting of Aslan that hung above my daughter's bed and smiled. Remembering how much he had loved my siblings and I and that he hated that we couldn't stay there with him. For a minute I swear I saw a little flicker in his golden eyes. immpossible I thought to myself and rubbed my eyes before looking at the painting again. Asland had...moved! He was no longer standing but laying down, his tail swishing and he winked at me. I felt that familiar pull and reached out for my sleeping little girl and closed my eyes. Once the wind had died down I reopened them and smiled to myself. I noticed these woods as the ones being fairly close to Cair Paravel, Peter, Susan, Edmund and I would spend hours playing hide and seek out here. I was back in Narnia, I was back home.
"The little Princess is beautiful my Valiant Queen." I turned on my heel and came face to face with Aslan. I was so happy to be back in Narnia. I just couldn't bed here right now, not while Caspian was still ruling. Actually not while Caspian was even alive but I couldn't tell Aslan that. I fell to my knees before him and stared at the ground.
"Why did you bring me back Aslan?" He nudged Anna as his answer and I felt tears welling up in my eyes. I couldn't do this, I wasn't strong enough to face Caspian. Yes he had a right to know he had a child but why couldn't Aslan tell him himself? I was about to plead with Aslan to let me return to England when I noticed he was no longer in front of me. Picking Annaleigh back up I started my walk towards Cair Paravel trying to think of what I would say to Caspian. I had no sooner made it up the front steps to the castle when Reepicheep scurried out of a little hole by the doors.
"Aslan has told me to take you to Caspian...the little Princess as well." I nodded and let the noble mouse lead me to the throne room. I took a deep breath as he pushed the door open. Caspian was knocked out of his though land and looked a little angry at the mouse.
"Reepicheep what-...Lucy." He said standing and walking towards me. He stopped though when he saw the now awake little girl in his arms. He stopped when he saw his eyes staring back at him, and his hair shinning from the sun's rays. "My God." He breathed and just stood there in the middle of the room. Anna squirmed out of my arms and ran over to Caspian not shy at all.
"Hi, I'm Annaleigh. That's my mummy Lucy, isn't she pretty?" I blushed a little and hid my face. Caspian squatted down to her level and softly brushed his hand against her face.
"Hi Annaleigh, I'm Caspian. How old are you little one?" She held up five fingers signaling her age. I slapped my forehead and Caspian looked up at me, hurt evident it his eyes. "Annaleigh I need to talk to your mother okay?" She nodded and ran towards the talking mouse Reepicheep and squealed with laughter as he called her the prettiest Princess he had ever seen. Caspian roughly grabbed my elbow and pulled me outside to the balcony and slammed the doors behind him. He turned to look at me and I saw a fire that he only had in his eyes before he went into battle. He wasn't angry with me, he was seething.
