Thanks for all the reviews!
Thanks princess emma of narnia! well, again for reviewing! And AcademicGames, but unfortunatly I cant let Ed and A.J be together. I have it all planned out in my head. I do think they sound cute together! That's why, but their relationship is strictly friends only. Sorry. Crystal-Wolf-Guardain-967 thanx for reviewing! Princess of Narnia 1192 I think this is the chapter you've been waiting for! Each and every review is charished!
This chapter was written with the help of a song called Bad Medicine, by Bon Jovi. It's a good song! But it won't load on Youtube so I'm listening to the first 27 seconds only. But its still a good song and I hope you all look it up. So here's the chapter! Sorry for the wait! And the italix is the part from the last chapter! Sorry for the spelling mistakes!
Disclaimer: I own nothing!:(
Chapter 4:
Edmund seemed to cheer up at the comment of me staying.
" Well, thats good. The Princess doesn't have to leave!" he said as we heard the muted footsteps boots gave. And the really soft footfalls of bare feet against the cold stone floor.
" Ed? Where are you?" a female voice asked as the door automatically opened, by the same butler that let Ed and me in.
The first thing I saw was a girl in a floor length green dress, with brown shoes on. They weren't boots. She must have been Lucy. She looked about 14. I took a step back as Edmund pushed me behind him, like his siblings would attack me.
Lucy took a few steps towards us and a boy walked in behind her.
The boy must have been Peter. He was wearing boots, tan pants, a brown and white shirt, and a sword was attached to his hip.
Peter looked amused when he saw me behind his little brother. He took two steps towards us and Ed took two steps back.
" Whose your friend Ed?" he asked as his hands reached down and messed with his sword. It was scaring the crap out of me. Did he have to do that with me around? He looked at it.
" It isn't what you think Pete, she's from America." Ed said as he tensed, as if he expected something to lunge at him and attack. I rolled my eyes, tempted to run and find a sword so I could protect myself. I really don't care if he is a 'High King'. I'd still fight him.
" America?" Peter repeated as he raised his eyes to me. " I don't think I've heard of it. Where exactly is it again?" Now, this guy was just being cocky. If I ever fought him, I'd kick his butt right to China. If there was a China here.
" Across the Atlantic Ocean." I muttered, loud enough for everyone to here. Ed cursed under his breath. No I was being the smart mouth in the equation.
" Oh, really?" Lucy said. Her voice was like bells with peices of sweet and innocent mixed in. She walked forwards a few paces when Ed stuck his arm out in front of me, like he was trying to protect me from his little sister. Why?
" It's okay Ed!" She exclaimed as she pushed his arm down. " I won't hurt her!"
Lucy continued to walk up to me. She held out her hand, which I took, and we shook hands.
" I'm Lucy!" she said happily. " And we haven't had visitors from America before! Well, no actual vistiors from our world." Her eyes lit up as she spoke.
My expression changed into one of confusion. " What do you mean by, 'no actual vistiors from our world'?" I pushed Edmund aside so I could get a better look at her.
Lucy has reddish-brownish hair, and its really straight. Her green eyes yelled 'Kid'. Her body wasn't quite all the way formed yet, like she would be taller and her face wasn't quite sculpted yet. She still had preteen features. And she was as skinny as a stick, just like me.
" You must have learned that this isn't our world, with cars, planes, trains. Its different." she said. I just stared at her for a moment. Was that true? I havent seen any cars around. No one. Just horses.
I blinked. " Your serious? Aren't you?" I asked her. She just nodded in response.
I'm sure my eyes were bulging out of my skull by this point.
" Wow? OH MY GOSH! FINALLY! I'M OUT OF THAT STUPID LITTLE TOWN! FOR GOOD!" I yelled as I did a stupid little dance in front of everyone. I'm sure I looked really stupid.
" A.J.? Are you okay?" Lucy asked me. I stopped dancing and turned to her.
" Oh! I'm fine! Better than fine, actually! I can stay here and I can be whoever I wanna be! Not a fake person everyone wants me to be." I said. I had a smile plastered on my face. I probably looked like a lunitic. " I can finally be me!"
More footsteps echoed from the hallway that the siblings just came from. The doors opened again.
" Peter! Where is my-" a girl said. She stopped mid sentance when she saw me. She looked at Ed. " Who is this and why does she have little clothing on?"
I looked down at myself. I did have to give her credit. I did kinda look like a stripper, but thats not the point.
" I'm A.J. And this is what everyone wears in America. Most 15 year olds wear this." I said, not trying to be smart, but it came out that way.
" Well," Susan said as she walked over and grabbed on of my hands. Lucy grabbed the other. " We'll fix you to look like a real princess."
" Uh..." I stuttered, looking at Ed frantically for advice.
" Just go with it," he said with a smile. Then he added. " Princess Alli Jade." It was in the Brittish accent, but more.
" Shut it Sir ED!" I yelled back to him as his sisters drug me out of the room by my hands. I tried to get away but nothing worked.

" I hate it." I muttered to Lucy as I stared into the full length mirror. " I really hate dresses."
I was wearing a Gray princess dress.(AN the outfit is on my polyvore. Go to one of my other links If I don't add it to my profile, please. My Profile is PaulsGurl. It is named AJ's Princess outfit) It had a dark gray skirt and a light gray top. There was a dark gray sash at my waist. Lucy put a dark blue Sodalite Creative Power Pendat around my neck. A maid put a pair of ruffled flats on my feet. Susan put purple-ish blue earrings in my ears, they'd taken my bellybutton ring out. Susan did my hair. She curled it a bit and put in a gray flower.
" How do you like it now?" Susan asked me. I just stared at myself in the mirror in shock. I was pretty. I'd never thought of myself as pretty before. Never. I was ordinary. No one ever recognized me.
" Wow." I whispered as I poked my cheek, making sure it was me in the mirror. I looked over at Susan. " Thank you." Then I looked over at Lucy. " I look pretty."
" You look more than pretty, Alli Jade. Your beautiful." Lucy said. We all smiled.
" Now lets go see how Peter likes you." Susan said as she took my hand. She led me to the door, but I was still thinking about what she said.
" What do you mean 'Now lets go see how Peter likes you' " I asked her. She stopped for a second as the maids opened the doors for us. We exited out into a hallway, and then she finnally spoke.
" Peter has been looking, well scouring, the kingdom for a suitable maiden." Susan said. What did she just say?
" Um... What?" I asked her, my brain wasn't working today. I looked at Lucy, who answered my question.
" Peter has been looking for a girl to marry! And he hasn't found the right one yet." she said, then her face lit up with joy. " You should have seen the way he was looking at you. It was like he'd finally found the one. So romantic!" she gushed.
" Hold on a second!" I said as I stopped, which caused Susan to stop. She gave me a warning glare. " So you mean to say that this," I gestured to my newly found clothing," is to get Peter to ask me to marry him?"
They paused and looked at each other for a moment. " Yes... and no." Lucy finally said.
" What we mean to say is that if you are a possible match, we wanted to get to know you before he did or said anything. You and Ed were acting like old friends!" Susan said, as she pulled on my arm. I willingly let my feet walk, thinking. Why would someone want to marry the daughter of a fashion whore and a fellon?
I really wanted to end it here, but I'm going to be nice and not!

Susan drug me through the halls of the castle.
" Do I really have to do this?" I asked her. She pulled on my arm tighter.
" Yes, we want someone good for a sister in law." she replied. As she pulled me into a room full of people.
I blinked. The room was huge and filled with talking...animals? Am I going crazy? What the hell? Animals? Talking ones?
" High Queen Susan!" a tiger said as it walked past us. " and guest."
