Chapter .1.
1300 Years Later…Telmarine
"5 more minutes", Caspian groans closing his eyes
"You won't be watching the stars tonight my Prince. Come, come we must hurry", Professor Cornelius urgently
"Professor what is going on?" Caspian asks hearing the urgency in his professor's voice
"Your Aunt has given birth to a son", Cornelius says rushing Caspian through the secret entrance, "Come quickly"
Caspian saw General Glozelle come into his room with some soldiers. Caspian was shocked when all of the soldiers shot at his bed where he once lay. Caspian ran to catch up to his professor. They reach the lower levels. Caspian grabs a soldiers armour and a sword.
"Hurry on your horse", Cornelius says draping Caspian's cloak over him.
Caspian quickly does what his professor says.
"You must take to the woods", Professor Cornelius says
"The woods?" Caspian asks nervously still remembering the stories of ghosts in the forests that his father and grandfather told him about
"They won't follow you there. It has taken me many years to find this", the Professor says pulling something out of his pocket, "Do not use it unless at your greatest need"
"Will I ever see you again?" Caspian asks worried for his Professor
"I dearly hope so my Prince. There is so much more I meant to tell you. Everything you know is about to change. Good luck my Prince", Professor Cornelius says
Suddenly there was shouts of soldiers approaching.
"Now go my Prince", the Professor says
Caspian rides off fast through the castle. Caspian urges his horse to a canter as he hears soldiers try and stop him. He heard people shouting that his Aunt had given his Uncle a son. Caspian galloped into the woods. It was so cold it was hard to breath for the Telmarine Prince. He finally made it across the Beruna River still hearing soldiers following Caspian didn't know if he would be able to loss them.
Suddenly he hit a long branch and fell off his horse. He was too tired to move, he laid down on the cold ground now knowing the soldiers will indeed catch him and probably kill him. He turned to look were he was and heard a sound looking around he saw a small hut with a light on inside. Two little people came out shocking Caspian. They both looked at the Telmarine in shock.
"He has seen us", one says
Caspian was frightened he had never seen anything like these two creatures. One came up to him with a sword and looked at Caspian too the horn on the ground. Caspian slowly inched his way to the horn. The small man stopped staring as he heard horses approaching. He looked at the other small man and said, "Take care of him"
The man rushed straight for the soldiers. The other had a dark look on his face and started to approach him planning to do what the other little man said and take care of him.
As the second little man neared Caspian lunged for the horn.
"NO!" the little man yells
Caspian was able to pick up the horn in time before he was stopped and used the last of his breath to blow into it. As soon as Caspian blow into it and made a sound the could be heard in Aslan's How and on Earth…
Narnia's How…
Peter, Susan and Edmund had been in Narnia for 13 centuries not knowing what had happened to their little sister. They had tried to go back to England but they weren't able to. They hadn't seen their precious little sisters face in 13 centuries but they still remembered her. They hoped not much time had passed in England and that they would see Lucy soon.
Susan had to keep remaindering the boys that they would see Lucy soon when her horn was sounded over and over again. But Peter and Edmund where getting sick of waiting and so was Susan to tell the truth. All they wanted was their little sister back and in their arms safe and sound.
Peter knew he shouldn't have left Lucy on her own all those years ago. It had been a mistake and they had all paid dearly.
Susan just wanted to see who sister again and say sorry for not staying with her and hunting the Stag with her and going back home with Lucy. She desperately missed Lucy and hoped she was ok.
Edmund kept himself busy to distract himself from the fact his little sister wasn't with them. He busied himself with getting supplies for the How and training soldiers.
Now they all hear the sound of a horn being blown. Edmund looks up from his maps and so does Peter. Susan looks up from her sewing they were all in shock.
That was Susan's horn that had been lost 1300 years ago. It had been blown! The Prophecy was true. It had to be and they would see their sister again.
They now knew the time was coming where they were going to see Lucy but would they see the same Lucy they left behind all those years ago or a little girl or someone completely different…
9 Years Later…
Lucy and Matthew had been on the streets for 7 years as they hadn't wanted to stay in their homes. In Lucy's case she really didn't want to be in her foster home after what she had been through. Lucy preferred living on the streets to that foster home where she was abused and raped a lot.
Flashback
Lucy was 10 years old now and had been beaten since the moment she arrived in this hell hole. She was in the boiler room which was her bedroom when Mr Thomas comes in with two guys.
"What can I do for you sir?" Lucy asks
"You are about to earn your keep", Mr Thomas says
That was when she lost her innocence. Mr Thomas from then lent her out for sex and money. Lucy had begged to be saved but no help came only Matthew who would help bandage her wounds an comfort her each time she was raped.
By 11 they decided to run away and onto the streets they went not looking back at the houses they left behind. Lucy and Matthew had made there was to London and its cemetery. Lucy went to the graves of her family to vent her anger and pain.
"How DARE you leave me! You left your little sister Peter, Susan, Edmund alone to fend for herself. Look what has happened to me! I am a bloody whore and lost my innocence too young. I swear I will never come here again and I will never believe in Narnia or Aslan again. You have all let me down and you have all left me to suffer. I hope you all suffer for everything that has happened to me! How could I have ever loved such a selfish family! Who puts their own needs above someone else's especially an innocent 10 year-old girl! Aslan I will never forgive you. How dare you abandon me here! I hate you all Peter, Susan, Edmund, Aslan. I hate you all" Lucy yells, screams and cries at the tomb stones
And pounding them with her injured fists. Matthew holds her tightly promising not to leave her like everyone else had and that was the last time she has spoken of her family and the last time she said those names, last time she cried and the last time she spoke Aslan's name…
Flashback End
Now Matthew and Lucy made there was through the train station. They were pick pocketing for money to maybe buy some food for the next few days. They lived in an abandoned building a few blocks away. They away changed locations every couple of days just to make sure no police or amry officers saw them.
Lucy only trusted Matthew to touch her and to look after her they were together as boyfriend and girlfriend. As Matthew has been the one to tend her wounds and her his. Lucy wore gloves to hid her scared hands. She wore worn jeans and a top to hide the damage down to her body. She no longer believed or had faith in Aslan. She was pretty sure she would never see her siblings again. As she wasn't going back to Narnian any time soon.
She told Matthew all about Narnia in the early days of their friendship. Now she didn't speak about it. Matthew did ask questions about Narnia but Lucy wouldn't answer them after the first year of being in the first home.
"So where do you want to pick up dinner today?" Matthew asks Lucy as they weave through the crowd
"We only have enough for so much we will have to pick something cheap from the supermarkets", Lucy replies
"Ouch", Matthew says
"What?" Lucy asks
"Someone pinched me", Matthew says
"I didn't feel anything", Lucy says, "Your imagining things"
That is when wind begins to flow through the tunnel. And everything becomes blurry.
"No! I don't want to go back. You can't make me", Lucy yells I the tunnel as it turns into a cave
"Lucy where are we?" Matthew asks
Lucy trembles and walks out of the cave to see the crystal-clear water and beautiful beach.
"This is Narnia?" Matthew asks
"Yes. But I don't want to be here! Take me back now!" Lucy yells pounding her fists on the cave wall
Matthew stops her, "Shh. It will be alright. I won't let no one hurt you. We WILL get home. I promise to get you home"
"Why now? Why here?" Lucy sobs
"Don't worry we will get back. Come on lets explore", Matthew says helping her up gently
They walk out onto the beach and take off their worn shoes that they had bought at a goodwill sale.
"Where there any ruins in Narnia?" Matthew asks looking at what could have been a building on a cliff
"No. There wasn't", Lucy says
"Come on let explore", Matthew says and helps Lucy climb the cliff
Lucy finds some apples and picks them she wanted something to eat and they might not be able to find much so apples would do. So she puts them in her bag
"I wonder who lived here?" Matthew asks looking around
"I think THEY did", Lucy says picking up a chest piece
"Who had the solid gold chest set?" Matthew asks
"The boys did", Lucy says
Lucy hadn't said her siblings names in years she always avoided saying them. It coursed her too much pain to remember the good times so she locked them away in her heart and mind. Making some people call her a woman with the heart of stone.
"What is this place Luce?" Matthew asks
Lucy wouldn't answer to anything but Lucy or Luce as Lu had been what her rapists had called her. She allowed no one to call her Lu now. She wasn't an innocent little girl anymore.
Lucy looked out over the rubble remembering what this place was and who used to live here.
