Lillian POV
It was getting darker now, the Narnians arrived to the Dancing Lawn and the council was hold. I was standing with Trufflehunter as it began.

"Kill him!" One Centaur yelled.

"Telmarine!" A fawn called.

"Liar!"

"Murderer."

"All this horn proves is that they've stolen yet another thing from us!" Nikabrik said. The Prince took a step in his direction, "I didn't steal anything." I smiled at his confident, gentle tone.

Then a Minotaur called out to the crowd, "Didn't steal anything? Shall we list the things the Telmarmines have taken from us?" I shook my head.

"Our homes!" A female centaur said.

"Our freedom!" A fawn called.

"Our lives!"

Caspian looked around at all of them surrounding him, not noticing me watching him with pity and admiration. Even with all the insults and comments being thrown his way he stood strong.

"You would hold me accountable for all the crimes of my people?" He asked them. Nikabrik spoke up, "Accountable . . ." He jumped down from where he was standing and walked towards him, "And punishable!"

"Ha!" Reepicheep said. I turned to see Reep with his sword in hand, "That's words from you, dwarf. Or have you forgotten that it was your people who fought alongside the White Witch?"

"And I'd gladly do it again if it would rid us of these barbarians!" Nikabrik stated threateningly as he flicked away Reep's sword and I glared at Nikabrik.

Then Trufflehunter stepped forward, "Then we are lucky it is not in your power to bring her back." All eyes turned to him and I beamed at him. "Or do you want us to ask this boy to go against Aslan?" Trufflehunter asked. This caused up-roar in the Narnians.

Trufflehunter continued, "Some of you may have forgotten, but we badgers remember well, that Narnia was never right except when a son of Adam was king." He turned to me with his kindly smile and my smile widened at this.

Nikabrik then yelled out in frustration throwing his arms around, "He's a Telmarine! Why would we want him as our king?" The Narnians all yelled out in agreement. "Enough!" I called and everyone stopped and looked at me. "Let him speak," I said, glancing at Caspian.

"Because I can help you," Caspian called as he gazed around at them all. Someone yelled that it was a trick but another said that they should hear him out and I was pleased at this, more and more of them were being convinced.

"Beyond these woods," Caspian continued as silence fell once more, "I am a prince." He spun slowly on the spot to stare around at everyone to show he was not afraid. "The Telmarine throne is rightfully mine. Help me claim it, and I can bring peace between us."

He glanced at me and I sent him a small smile as I walked to stand beside him. Then Glenstorm strode forward. "It is true," He said, his voice heard by all around, "The time is ripe." He hold the hilt of his sword in his hand as it was sheathed at his side. "I watch the skies," Glenstorm explained, "For it is mine to watch." He then looked to Trufflehunter, "As it is yours to remember, badger."

He then addressed everyone again, "Tarva, the Lord of Victory, and Alambil, the Lady of Peace have come together in the high heavens." He then directed his gaze to Caspian, "And now here a son of Adam has come forth to offer us back our freedom."

At that moment a squirrel in a branch spoke up, "Is it possible? Do you really think there could be peace? Do you? I mean, really?" The squirrel asked. I looked at the squirrel and grinned, nearly all squirrels were just as over energized and I always found it amusing.

"Two days ago," Caspian began, "I didn't believe in the existence of talking animals, or dwarfs, or centaurs. Yet, here you are," He gazed around at them in awe, "In strength in numbers we Telmarines could never have imagined."

Caspian then hold up Aunt Susan's horn to eye level at the side of his head, "Whether this horn is magic or not, It brought us together," Caspian stated, "And together, we have a chance to take back what is ours."

Glenstorm stepped towards Caspian and said slowly, "If you will leads us, protect the Princess with your life, then my sons and I . . ." All the centaurs reached for their swords the drew them and hold them towards him, "Offer you our swords." My face lit up at this proclamation. All the other Narnians in the crowd drew their weapons and hold them towards Caspian as a sign that they would fight for him.

Then Reep flipped his sword around expertly as he said, "And we offer you our lives, unreservedly." He then gave a deep bow to Caspian as his ears grazed against the ground. Trufflehunter them stepped towards Caspian and said, "Miraz's army will not be far behind, sire."

Caspian said, "If we are to be ready for them, we must hurry to find soldiers and weapons." He then looked directly at me and I said, "I am sure they will be here soon." He nodded and we gave each other a smile.

Katharina POV
The next morning, we continued at our journey. When we arrived at Beruna, we were surprised to see a mass of Telmarine men busy at work cutting down the trees and making them into logs for a bridge and for catapult.

I watched, frowning and clenching fists but then got pulled down by Peter and he kneeled beside me, when a few Telmarines rode by on horses to our left.

I looked over at Peter, "Perhaps this wasn't the best way after all." We all waited for the few Telmarines to leave and when they did, we all gave one last look around the landscape. Peter grabbed my hand and we quietly retreat back into the forest.

With no other place to go, we returned to the gorge. "Where do you think you saw Aslan?" Peter asked Lucy. "I wish you'd all stop acting like grown-ups," Lucy said and she took a few steps to the side, studying the area. "I didn't think I saw him, I did see him."

She stopped at a spot. "I am a grown-up," Trumpkin said under his breath, making me and Edmund to crack a smirk. "It was right around -" The ground beneath Lucy collapsed suddenly and she was sent down with a scream.

"Lucy!" Susan and I shouted as we all rushed forward only to see Lucy sitting on a small path. ". . . Here," Lucy finished, looking up at us. "Well, I guess that should work," I said. "Let's go, watch yourselves," Peter said.

We managed to make it down to the river where we began to cross it by stepping onto stones protruding out. Lucy was way in the front with Trumpkin and all the way in the back was Peter and I.

Lucy almost slipped but was caught by Trumpkin and then I felt my foot slipping on the wet rock and I was caught just in time by Peter. "You okay?" He asked and his hands still on my waist. "Yeah, thanks," I said, sending him a smile.

He grinned and sent me a wink. I giggled slightly and he removed his hand and hold it out, gesturing for me to go in front of him. I smirked and kissed his cheek before walking in front of him.

Lillian POV

I was sitting with Trufflehunter on a large rock a bit away from the camp, staring at the sun that was setting down. "Do you think about Trumpkin?" I asked my friend. Trufflehunter sighed sadly and nodded his head before looking down. "Do you think he's dead?" I asked, looking down. "I hope he's not," He replied and I could feel his eyes on me.

I gave a small nod. "Me too," I said. Then, Caspian walked over to us, "Hey, can I steal her from you?" He asked. Trufflehunter smiled and nodded before giving me a smile and getting out the rock, leaving me and Caspian alone.

Caspian sat beside me at the rock as I played with my fingers. "So, Prince Caspian, do you need something?" I asked and looked at him only to meet his gaze on me. "Nothing, Princess Lillian," He said jokingly. It made me giggle slightly and he joined in.

"So, tell me about your family," He said. "I heard a lot from the stories of my Professor but." I sighed softly. "It's a bit hard to talk about them. It's just reminds me that . . . They not here anymore," I said and looked right into his eyes.

I quickly looked away from his brown eyes when I could feel my eyes watering. "I'm sorry, I didn't meant to bring them up to hurt you," Caspian said, his voice was soft and he slowly took my hand in his and interlaced the fingers.

I looked back at him a gave him a small smile but then looked away when I felt my cheeks grow pink. "You know," Caspian started and I looked at him but he was looking at the sunset so I did the same, "My mother died giving birth to me."

I looked at him again and he continued, "My father died when I was ten and my Uncle and Aunt took care of me. So did the Professor. He was the one that told me about Narnia. The Narnians, the golden age." He looked at me, "About you and your family."

I stared into his eyes and all of a sudden he leaned forward and I felt that I was as well. Our lips almost touched but then we heard a cough.

We spun and saw that there sitting across from us on a tree branch, Reepicheep. I blushed but Caspian just smiled and gave a nod. Reep chuckled at my shy reaction and gave a small sweet sigh, looking between me and the Prince.

It was dark now, Reep, Caspian and I walked back to the camp and everyone was getting ready to go to sleep, except those who had the night patrol went to take their posts but were still in ear shoot as they just circled the group until we went to bed.

Caspian ended up lacing his bedroll beside mine and we lay down. Before we fell asleep I felt Caspian place his arm around my waist and pulled me forward a bit so my chest was against his. "Good night, Caspian," I muttered and he gave me a smile and said, "Good night." And with that, I faded into sleep.

Katharina POV
It was dark now, we all decided to contend tomorrow. Peter had his arms wrapped around me as my head and hand was resting on his chest while everyone was sleeping, except me and Peter.

I sighed softly as I played with his fingers. He rested his chin on the top of my head. "What are you thinking about?" He asked softly. "About Lili," I replied and he sighed softly. "You heard Trumpkin, he said she's safe," He said. "I know, I just . . ." I sighed and Peter placed his hand on my chin and made me look up at him.

His blue eyes stared down at my brown once. "We'll find her," He promised. "I'll get her back." I gave him a small smile and he continued, "Do you trust me?" He asked and I remembered that he asked it at our night the day we married.

I smiled and nodded before saying what I said to him that night, "With my life." He smiled and pressed his lips to mine.

His hand moved to the back of my head and he deepened the kiss. I moved so my back was at the ground and Peter was on top of me. I felt his tongue, begging for entrance and I let him. I just couldn't resist.

His tongue entered my mouth and he took control of me and let his tongue map out the area inside my mouth. I felt his other hand moving up and down my side and the kiss was getting much more heated.

Suddenly, I felt his hand moving down and under my dress and he rubbed my thigh. I stopped him and we pulled away from the kiss, heavy breathing and rosy cheeks.

"Peter, we can't," I said taking a breath before glancing at the others who were still all sleeping. Peter glanced as well before getting off from me and we were back to our spot.

"I guess I got carried away, huh?" He asked and I smirked as I rested my head back to his chest and his arms wrapped around me again.

"Yep. Well, I was too," I admitted and he chuckled. He kissed my head and I smiled. "Goodnight, Kat," He whispered. "Goodnight, Peter," I whispered before felling a sleep.

Lillian POV

I was sitting with Trufflehunter, Reep and several of other mice. I noticed Caspian drawing his sword as he walked towards where one of the Minotaur's was on patrol around the camp.

Suddenly, Caspian ran forward with a yell his sword clashing with someone else's who looked as though they were about to attack the Minotaur. Reepicheep ordered his mice to arms and I rose to me feet and made my way over.

I saw a someone was fighting Caspian. It was a boy. Maybe a year or two older then me. He was blonde but I couldn't see his face. He and Caspian swung at each other with heavy swipes, aiming to injury the other if not kill. the guy smashed the hilt of his sword against Caspian's face.

The guy swung Caspian's sword in a circle and Caspian's sword flew out of his hand. I gasped as the guy swung at Caspian but he bent backwards, dodging the hard blow just in time.

Because he missed the guy's sword embedded itself inside the tree that was behind Caspian. The guy tried to pull the sword from the bark but was interrupted by Caspian who was back on his feet and kicked him in the chest, sending him to the ground. Caspian then proceeded to try and wench the sword out of the tree to defend himself. While he wasn't looking the guy had grabbed hold of a large rock and was about bash in Caspian's head with it.

I was about to stopped them but was interrupted by a voice of a young girl, "No! Stop!" Both boys turned to see her and another girl, maybe at my age, running over to them. All the Narnians followed me and the guy turned back on the spot and witnessing all the Nanrians. They all were angered by Caspian being attacked, well the Minotaur being attack and the guy almost killing Caspian because he was trying to protect the Minotaur.

The guy glared back at Caspian. The Prince kept him at sword point, watching him cautiously. "Prince Caspian?" He asked. "Yes," Caspian replied, "And who are you?" It was then that another girl and a boy ran in, closely followed by - Trumpkin! "Peter!" The girl yelled as she rushed into the clearing.

I walked towards Caspian and looked at the guy that he was fighting, he looked familiar and I glanced at the other girl that he had grabbed her hand. She looked familiar as well. I frowned and tried to remember why.

Then I suddenly remembered; My family's paintings, where some of them show my family where they younger. "Mum? Dad?" I asked as I stood beside Caspian and got everyone's attention.

The three girls and two boys eyes grow wide. "Lili?" The girl that hold the guy's hand asked and I grinned and they both pulled me into a tightly hug.

They were back!

All of them!

I glanced over their shoulders and saw Aunt Susan, Aunt Lucy and Uncle Edmund smiling and I could see that their eyes were watering. Mine was as well and so did Mum and Dad's.

We pulled away and I looked at them both over, "You all look . . . Younger." They chuckled. "It's a long story," Mum said and I chuckled before I looked at Caspian and placed my hand on Caspian's arm for him to lower my Dad's sword, "Caspian, maybe I should introduce you to my family." Caspian looked to me and then to my family in surprise and then back to me.

He then studied the Rhindon that he still hold in his hand. He looked up at Dad, "High King Peter?" Dad then said, "I believe you called." Caspian looked at him and then me, "Well yes, but . . . I thought you'd be older." Dad grabbed my arm gently, pulling me to him and Mum, "Well, if you'd like, we all can come back in a few years."

Caspian quickly stopped him, "No! No, that's alright. You're just . . ." He looked over all of us and faltered on me a moment, "You're not exactly what I expected." Uncle Edmund studied the Narnians, "Neither are you." It was a Minotaur he was studying.

Trufflehunter stepped forward and stated, seeing and my Uncle's look, "A common enemy unites even the oldest of foes." Reepicheep scampered forward to address Dad, "We have anxiously awaited your return, my Liege. Our hearts and swords are at your service."

Aunt Lucy then whisper to Aunt Susan and Mum, "Oh my gosh, he is so cute." I smiled in agreement. Reep then drew his sword and began to look around frantically, "Who said that?!" He demanded.

This caused me to giggle as I noticed Aunt Lucy's look. "Sorry," She replied quietly. Reep was slightly taken back and tried to make amends, "Oh, uh . . . Your Majesty. With the greatest respect . . . I do believe courageous, courteous, or chivalrous might more befit a knight of Narnia."

As Reep said all this he was expertly swinging his sword around before sheathing it again. I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, right," I said and he gave me a playfully glare. I giggled and Dad then remarked, "Well, at least we know some of you can handle a blade." I could tell this was an insult directed at Caspian and I looked at him sadly. Caspian's eyes were darting back and forth.

I pulled away from the grip of my parents and stepped towards Caspian and took his hand to reassure him and hid it behind us. I could tell it was relaxing him.

Reepicheep seemed to take Dad's comment as a compliment to him not noticing the other meaning, "Yes, indeed. And I have recently put it to good use acquiring weapons for your army, sire." I noticed Glenstorm didn't look happy about Reepicheep stating it as Dad's army.

"Good," Dad said, "Because we're going to need every sword we can get." He then turned to glare at Caspian. "Well then," Caspian replied, "You'll probably be wanting yours back." He handed Rhindon over to my father with his free hand, the other still moving along my hand.

Dad took it and angrily sheathed it again. He then turned and walked away. Caspian and I let go of each other's hands and followed after Dad and as we walked Caspian retrieved his sword from the ground.

Mum smiled at me and wrapped her arms around me and I smiled. She nodded her head towards my Aunts and Uncle and I grinned as they walked over to us. I quickly threw myself to Aunt Su's arms and we giggled.

Then I hugged Aunt Lucy and then Uncle Edmund before we all hastily followed after the others. Aunt Lucy went to speak with Trumpkin and other Narnians while Mum, Aunt Susan, Uncle Edmund and I went to walk behind Caspian and Dad.
