Susan's POV
"What are we going to do?" cried Peter, it had been two days since Edmund had run away. I was starting to get really worried. Nonsense, I told myself. Ed knows how to take care of himself, he's a king of Narnia! But where was he? "Susan, are you even listening to me?" Peter stopped pacing just long enough to look at me. "Yes, you asked what we are going to do for the thousandth time." I sighed. How was I supposed to know how to find our little brother. "I'm worried, Su," said Peter coming to sit by me in the window, "He's never been gone this long before." "I know, I'm worried too, But it's Edmund we're talking about, he does this sort of thing all the time." I reassured him. "But never to this extent," there he went again, wallowing in all of the terrible things of this world. "If it makes you feel any better, I sent some of the scouts out to look for him." I said, rubbing his shoulder. Instead of calming him, it just increased his anger, "why didn't you tell me sooner?" he raged, "I should be out there with them!" he cried, running his hands through his hair before burring his face in them. "I'm sorry, Pete, I'm so sorry. It's not your fault. It isn't anyone's fault. Just Edmund being Edmund. He'll turn up, Phillip won't let him go far." This time accepted my attempted at comfort and lay his head on my shoulder staring off into space.
"Susan!" He screamed, "I'm over here! Help me!" I raced around the trees looking for my brother. "Edmund! Where are you?" I was crying "Here! Help me!" I ran faster towards his voice. I could see his hand on the edge of a cliff barely hanging on. "Hold on! I'm here," I rushed for him grabbing his wrist just as the strength in is hand gave way. Pulling him to safety I said, "Ed, oh Edmund! How ever did you manage to fall off of a cliff?" "Oh you know me, always getting into mischief and not quite understanding myself how it happened." He laughed, his eyes shone with tears and if I wasn't mistaken a longing. I realized I was dreaming. "Edmund," I said trying not to cry, "Yes, Su?" He looked at me, tears running down his face "Please come home. I miss you." He looked at me sadly. "It seems you're the only one" He said standing, "but that's not true! Peter misses you terribly and won't stop blaming himself, and Lucy refuses to eat or sleep, feeling sure that you will be back for the meal, and that she must wait for you!" "Please stop it Su, we both know that they are putting on the act for your sake." that couldn't be true. Peter and Lucy loved him dearly and would do almost anything to get him back. He was backing towards the cliff now. "Edmund, what are you doing? Get away from there!" "I'm sorry Su, I love you, but there's nothing but that to live for," he took another step backward.
In a flash I was behind him grabbing his shoulders, "I'm going to tell you one more time, Edmund Pevensie, get away from the cliff and we can go home!" I sobbed the last part losing control of all my emotions. He was still backing up. If he wasn't going to stop then I was going with him. I stepped from behind him to his side, taking his and I started walking backwards with him. "Susan, what are you doing?" his voice sounded panicked, "I love you too Edmund." We took another step and fell. I resisted the erege to scream plummeting to the earth below, Edmund grasped my hand tighter saying something I couldn't quite make out. "Come home Ed." I said, "Come home." and then everything went black.
Edmund's POV
I woke up with a cry. Susan had jumped off the cliff with me. Why? The dream, it had seemed so real, no, not a dream, a nightmare. It had been a long time since I'd had one. Was that how Susan felt? Somehow I knew she had been dreaming the same dream. Was she laying awake in Cair Parevel right now, trying not to think about it? I shifted on the ground, trying to get comfortable again. After tossing and turning for an hour or so I knew what I had to do. I had to get back to Cair Parevel. Not just yet though. Maybe one more day to teach Peter a lesson. Just one.
The next morning was horrible. I was grumpy for lack of sleep and Phillip did not help by nagging me that we should be getting home. "My king we really should be heading back, don't you think they'll be getting worried?" "Just one more day, Phillip" I said. "Alright, but just one. No more." "Yes Susan."
Susan's POV
Where was Edmund? I hadn't slept well the night before because of that awful dream. "Susan, you seem distant today, what's the matter?" Peter asked, "Nothing, I just stayed up to late reading. That's all." I replied, attempting to shake myself out of it. What was wrong with me? I usually didn't get this worked up over a dream. It's just this time I had a very queer feeling, as if something truly horrible was going to happen.
