Here's Chapter 7, thanks to everyone who reviewed it really helps me continue the story. I know it seems like they will be split up forever but i promise that Peter and Eliza will see eachother real soon, in like the next chapter. And trust me when they do it will be good. Hope you enjoy this chapter:D
Eliza's point of view
We followed the wolfs to a cave, we had to walk a bit once inside the cave until they stopped. Up ahead there was a light coming from a candle.
"Who goes there." Came a voice. I tried to see who was there but it was still too dark to make out the figure that stood in front of us.
"It is I, Ulric, and my pack. We bring three humans." The leader wolf, Ulric, said.
"Humans! Hold on, I'll get more light" he said. There seemed to have been some excitement or disbelief in his voice.
More lights were lit and in front of us stood an elf who seemed older than I yet not as tall as Lucy.
"What are you?" Charlotte asked.
"I am an elf, my name is Rashid." He said
"Do all elf's live in caves?" I asked
"Actually, I used to own a house in the eastern village. That was before King Arubics came, he made us become slaves or part of his army. I refused to do any of the sort and now I am known as a convict for, as he put it, disobeying the king. So I had to go into hiding or perish." As Rashid told us this he seemed so sad.
"You see, those who agree to follow with King Arubics evil plans shall keep there lifes. Those who believe that good can overcome evil must hide or be killed. But now that you humans have come, we may be able to restore peace." Ulric explained.
"How? Were just kids, there's nothing special about us." Charlotte said
"Your wrong. My siblings and I helped free Narnia." Lucy said
"Look, I wish we could help, but-" I said
"You must help us, your are only hope" Ulric said
Lucy and Charlotte looked at me expectantly, but what was I suppose to do?
"Perhaps I should tell you of your destiny before we continue." Rashid said
"Elizabeth-" he started before I cut him off.
"How did you know my name?" I asked a little shocked.
"I know all about you and your siblings." He said as he pulled out a huge book, he placed his hand over it and the book flew open to near the middle.
"How did you do that?" Charlotte asked amazed
"It's called magic, and you too will learn how to control it." He said
"But I don't have magic." Charlotte said a little disappointed as she looked at the palm of her hands.
"Yes you do, as do you Elizabeth. But before I get into magic shall I tell you of your story first." Rashid said
We all nodded as we sat even closer together.
"Alright then. Elizabeth, you are a descendant of Titania. She protected the giants and was the only one who was not afraid of them. She knew that deep down they were good and was able to convince the people of Magicia to also look for the good in not only the giants, but of everyone else." Rashid opened a wooden chest and took out a beautiful purple hunting dress with a golden outline.
"This is for you, Titania once wore it." Next he pulled out a quiver with arrows and a bow. "Here is your weapon, you will need it for the journey that is to come. There is also strong magic in these arrows. Only you can find out exactly what these arrows are capable of, be careful." He said as he handed me it.
I didn't ask about what journey he was talking about or about the fact that I have never used a bow and arrow in my life. I just sat and let him continue the story.
"Charlotte, you are the descendant of Tala. She guided the wolfs and it was her bravery and strength that helped her do so. Even though everyone else thought of her as a fragile little girl, she proved to them that she was very powerful. It was also this power that made some scared of her, yet she would never use her magic to harm the innocent. She used it to protect those who needed protection." Rashid then pulled out a pink hunting dress also with a golden outlining. He also pulled out a necklace that had a pink crystal. He handed Charlotte her items.
"Although that necklace does not look like much, it may be the greatest weapon of all. That necklace shall help you control your magic." He said.
"As for your brothers I shall wait until I meet them myself to tells them of there destiny and to hand them there gifts." Rashid said as he nodded to Ulric. We all looked at Ulric curiously.
"I will take you to Narnia by the Giants territory now. We must remain as hidden as possible. Change into your new clothes while Rashid packs us a bundle with food. Don't forget your weapons." Ulric said
We all were happy to hear that we were going to Narnia. We had hope of seeing our siblings and friends.
"Before you go I have one more gift. Lucy, even though you are from Narnia and not Magicia I thought you might need this. He took out a golden compass and handed it to Lucy. "You appear to have an adventurous spirit, this compass will take you to wherever you want to go as long as it's in this world. Just think of the place you desire and it will take you there." He said and left us to change. Charlotte and I started to change into our new clothing and I put on my quiver with my arrows and bow. Charlotte put on her necklace and we were all ready to go.
Charlotte, Lucy and I walked out of the cave to meet with Ulric and Rashid.
"Thank you for everything Rashid." I said as he handed me the bundle.
"Yes, thank you." Said Lucy and Charlotte.
"It was a pleasure to finally meet you. Please hurry to return, we are in grave danger everyday in Magicia." Rashid said
"I promise you we will come back and free Magicia." I said as I smiled. I don't know when I started to get all of this courage but all of a sudden I started to feel stronger.
"Before we go I'll explain to you a little of what is to come on this journey. We will walk down south to the Southern Giants Territory. Expect the unexpected there, it will be a long walk and I expect to get there by night fall. We can't afford taking breaks but if is a must I will look for a place to hide as we rest. We must get out of here as quickly as possible. The giant fields are a perfect hiding place and is the only thing separating Magicia and Narnia. In the field we will walk slowly so we will not attract any attention. Be very quite and listen very carefully, there can be creatures lurking in the fields. Are you ready for what is to come?" Ulric asked us.
"Yes." We all said.
"Thank you Ulric for bringing us to Narnia." I added since I knew he was putting his life at risk for us.
"I was not kidding when I said the giants surround Magicia's border. Keep your weapons close, we might need to attack." He said
Charlotte, Lucy and I all looked at each other nervously yet we all knew we had to go to Narnia. We waved goodbye to Rashid and were on our way to Narnia. It was a very long and very tiring journey. Lucy was slowing down once we exited the forest so I gave her a piggy back ride. It was getting darker as we reached the mountains, every part of my body was aching and Charlotte looked as if she would faint. Even Ulric looked exhausted.
"I know of a path that leads through these mountains to the field. We are now entering Giants territory. We can take a small break in cave over there." Ulric said. Those words were such a blessing, finally a break!
I woke up Lucy once at the cave, apparently she fell asleep on my back. I'm glad she did, maybe then she will have a little more energy to keep going. Charlotte took the bundle and got us some bread and apples. There was also some other stuff that looked a little like meat but nothing I ever saw before. Charlotte gave me a queer look, as did Lucy. I looked at Ulric with the same look and it's almost like he read our minds.
"It's a roasted lizard, very hard to find yet the most delicious thing you will ever taste." He said and I gave him one. He started to eat it and I took one for myself. Charlotte and Lucy looked at me with shocked faces. I know it seemed disgusting but it couldn't be that bad. I closed my eyes and took a bite out of its tail. Surprisingly it was really good, just as Ulric said it would be. Lucy and Charlotte followed my lead and started eating.
How did you like it? Please review:) It's easy really...
