Chapter 6: Great
Lucy
'I lived a fair life. Of course I didn't get everything I wanted, but nobody does. Right? Of course I am more grown up then other girls my age, but that doesn't matter. I loved my life. I lived a great life, so you would think that I would be fine dieing right here, right now. Wrong. I would hate to die right here, right now. I still had a life to live, I still had things to do. I want to grow up, I want to live my full life. Things never go my way, but please Aslan, let it go my way right now. Please Aslan, let me live the best of lives. Please Aslan, let some miracle happen and let me live through this.' I thought quickly as I fell through the air.
It was like everything was moving slow motion. First I felt arrows whizzing past me, but that didn't matter. All in a split second I decided everything about my death. I didn't want to look to find out what type of ground will end my life. It didn't matter if it was a rocky ground, if it was a lake, or if it was a lava pit, I would still die. In the first second that I knew I would die, the first second I knew I would not live, the first second I knew I was falling I had everything planed, I had everything I wanted.
In the next second I felt selfish. I always took everything for granted. I took everything I had for granted. I had a wonderful life, but I always wanted more. I wanted more beauty, I wanted more attention, but I had everything I needed. I guess you have to be in a life or death experience to realise what you have. I knew that I needed to be on the verge of death to realise this. How selfish I felt. I took everything for granted… No wonder fate wanted me out of here, no wonder fate wanted me to fall. Life came crashing down on me.
All of a sudden everything went into normal time…
I looked around me, I was only a few feet away from the griffin, arrows hitting the Narnian's, arrows flowing all around me. It was a miracle that I haven't got hit yet.
'Dose fate want me to live?' I hopefully thought to myself. I smiled just thinking of being with my family again, about being with Edmund again.
Soon the smile on my face got whipped off. I felt sharp pain come from my upper leg. I looked down to my leg. As soon as I saw what was making the sharp pain, my heart started betting fast. Pain, pain shooting all through my body. Arrow, arrow stabbed deeply into my leg. Great, just great.
"LUCY!" Edmund screamed. I looked at him, his eyes were scared. It almost felt like I was his world, it felt like if I got hurt, he would feel the pain. It felt comforting, if felt warm, it felt like my life. I smiled.
Edmund quickly jumped off the griffin after me. I thought I was going to be safe, Edmund was going to help me. Edmund was going to save me. Then I felt the pain from my leg once again. I looked down to my leg. There in my dress there was the same arrow.
My wonderful red dress, red… yes, bloody… yes. Wonderful. How can my armour fail me like this? How could a arrow go trough my armour… Doesn't matter now.
'I'm going to die. Edmund will never know I love him. Dear Aslan, help me.' I thought to myself.
I closed my eyes and pictured Edmunds face in my mind. I was hoping, wishing that his face would burn into my mind, but I couldn't concentrate because of the pain from my leg. If only I would stop falling. The wind is rattling the arrow, so it hurts even more.
All of this happened in under 3 seconds…
"LUCY!" Edmund called my name. I had to open my eyes, I had to see his face one more time before I die, so I opened my eyes.
"I'm sorry." I chocked out. I felt the familiar hot liquid leek from my eyes. Edmund was falling quickly, but I was falling slowly. Soon Edmund caught up to me.
"About what?" Edmund asked me. He put his arms around me.
"Pulling you out here. We are going to die." I sobbed. Edmund shook his head no.
"We aren't going to die. Look." Edmund whispered to me. I looked to the ground. Underneath us was a forest.
"I-" Edmund said but he was cut off. We were landing in the forest. Edmund let go of me as we feel to our death. I closed my eyes, wishing it would go away. As soon as I felt something under me, I blacked out. The pain was to much to handle.
I slowly opened my eyes. I felt sick. My head hurt, my arm hurt, and my leg hurt. I looked around I was in a forest. A dark forest. I was laying down, laying down in a pool of blood. A pool of my blood.
Great. Just Great.
I tried to sit up, but ended up whimpering in pain and I fell back down. I lied there for a few minutes more. I was wishing that the pain would go away soon. I couldn't stay here much longer. It was getting dark out, Narnia was on the verge of war, and I was in enemy territory… Wonderful, just wonderful.
'I need to get out of here…' I thought to myself.
I sat up, but fell back down. My leg hurt a lot, and my head hurt a lot. I looked at my leg. Oh Aslan! On my leg there were splinters of wood and blood. Lots and lots of blood.
As soon as I took in all of this information, everything came back to me. I remembered Edmund. He was around here, somewhere Edmund was lying.
With that I sat up. I had to ignore the pain, I had to find Edmund. I rolled over onto my stomach and I winced in pain.
"Edmund!" I screamed out in hope that Edmund would answer.
No answer.
"Aslan! Aslan help me!" I cried out in pain. I needed to find Edmund.
'You will always have help.' A rich voice told me inside my head.
"Aslan! Is Edmund okay?" I cried out.
No answer.
Even if there was no answer, I still needed to find Edmund.
I used my arms to pull me a few feet, but the pain was making me dizzy. My arms were all bruised, and maybe even broken.
"Edmund! Please!" I cried. I needed a answer. I needed to know if he was alright. I needed to know where he was. I waited a few more minuets.
No answer.
I needed a answer. I have to have a answer.
I crawled a few more feet, but my arms felt like there were hundreds of knifes stabbing me. I screamed in pain. I couldn't take it any longer, I need Edmund.
"Lucy!" I heard a man's voice calling to me. It wasn't just any man's voice, it was Edmunds voice. Just from that one word my heart jumped to my throat.
"Edmund!" I called into the deep forest.
"Lucy, are you okay?" Edmund called. I could tell that he was near by.
"I'm alive." I called out.
"Can you walk?" Edmund asked. I guess he remembered the arrow.
"No. I can't." I called out.
"I can't either." Edmund told me. I had to get to Edmund. I needed him. I had to ignore the pain.
"I'll come!" I yelled in to the forest. I knew he was to the right of me, so I turned towards him.
I pulled myself a few feet until I had to stop. I bit my lip to keep myself from screaming. I was silent for a few minutes. Tears were streaming down my face, I had lost a lot of blood, and I had tons of injuries.
"Lucy, are you okay?" Edmund asked me. I could tell that we were close together.
"I'm fine." I lied weakly towards Edmund. I pulled myself to the forest line, but I couldn't go any further.
'You are close! You can make it!' I thought to myself.
"Edmund?" I called out to Edmund.
"Lucy!" Edmund yelled. We were close. Probably a few feet away from each other.
I got on my arms again and pulled myself to a big rock. The rock was in a deep part in the forest. I couldn't go any further. I just couldn't.
"Edmund, where are you?" I whimpered into the darkness. The forest was really black.
"Right here, Lucy." Edmund whispered. I looked around the rock, and Edmund was sitting there.
"Oh my, Edmund!" I cried. Edmund was probably looking worse then me. He had a huge cut in his head, tons of smaller cuts along his body, his eyes were glazy, and it looked like he had a broken leg along with a arm. "Edmund!" I cried.
"Shhhh. Its okay." Edmund croaked out.
"No its not! Look at you! I pulled you into this!" I sobbed. I crawled the rest of the space towards Edmund.
"I'm fine! We have to worry about you. Your head is split right open!" Edmund yelled.
"Please, I'm fine. You look worse then me!" I whimpered. I lifted my arm and put my hand on his cheek.
"If only we had somethi- Lucy!" Edmund yelled happily.
"Huh?" I asked. My mouth was getting dry…
"Your healing cordial! We can use that!" Edmund cheered happily. A smile lit up my face. We found hope, there was still hope!
"That's brilliant!" I yelled happily. I reached for my pouch that held my healing cordial, but there was nothing there. My smile fell. I felt again… Nothing!
"What's wrong, Lu?" Edmund asked me worriedly.
"Edmund! My healing cordial is gone! I-I lost it!" I cried. I was so stupid!
"Please don't cry, Lucy! Its fine!" Edmund whispered.
"No its not fine! We are going to die!" I whispered to Edmund as I cried.
"Lu, your going to be okay! I'm going to be okay! Tomorrow we will get the healing cordial! It will b-" Edmund said but he stopped mid sentence.
"What are yo-" I started to say, but Edmund put a hand up to stop me.
After a few minuets…
"There is something or someone near us. I think its listening to us…" Edmund informed me. At those words my heart beat quickened.
Great…
How did ya like it? Was it to short? Was it good or bad?
