AN: ok I lied. I'm not having one chapter for one month. Because I have writers block so I will have this chapter, then the secret telling chapter *raises eye brows* yep you know what I mean. But I will have chapters after that instead of going to Caspian land strait away :P
Chapter 10
Edmund was sick. Lucy was sick. Susan was sick. The only healthy ones were Peter and Rose. Since Peter was running the country Rose had to look after the ill ones. They all had the same symptoms the same temperature. But Edmund was making more fuss than the rest.
"Man flu," Rose said sitting on the bed flicking through a book of illnesses. She didn't understand how the Nurse wouldn't help them get better. She said it was her 'day off' which was a lie. She has been off for a week and no one has seen her.
"I don't have man flu!" Edmund croaked, "I'm ill! Don't you believe me?"
"Yes I do believe you, Susan and Lucy have the same illness."
"Then why don't you accuse them of having man flu?"
"Two reasons, one) they don't moan as much as you do, two) they are not men so it isn't possible for them to have man flu,"
"I might have what ever illness they have but worse!"
"Nope, exact same symptoms, exact same temperature, you are moaning, they are not. You are man fluing,"
"Fluing isn't a word,"
"It is now!"
"I'm ill you have to be nice,"
"Does this count as nice?" Rose said putting the book down on the desk, she walked towards the bed and lay underneath the covers and hugged Edmund,
"No! It counts as creepy!" Edmund lied. He thought it was nice but he wouldn't tell her that! "Get off!"
"Then stop whining or I will stay here! Ok?"
"Ok,"
"Good," Rose said getting up and going back to her book.
"Just one question," Edmund said. Rose sighed and looked at him. "Why are you in here, you could be with Lucy or Susan?"
"Two reasons, one) this is my room. Two) I'm not married to them."
"Do you like using the number thing to answer questions?"
"No not really but you keep asking questions with multiple answers,"
"Wait… you said one of the reasons was because you weren't married to them. I thought you didn't care we were married."
"Of course I care!"
"Really!"
"Nah, I'm lying!"
"Oh,"
"Now I'm being sarcastic!"
"So wait, do you care or do you not care?"
"I care,"
"Awww,"
"Shut up or I won't heal you and you will die," Rose said. Edmund shut up. After 5 minuets of silence Edmund spoke.
"Rose, there is something I need to tell you,"
"Go on then." Rose said,
"Right, Erm… Rose, I Lo…" Edmund started but he was cut off by Rose jumping from her seat.
"I found it!"
"Found what?"
"Your cure!"
"Oh, ok,"
"I'm sorry Edmund I cut you off, what were you going to say?"
"Never mind, it doesn't matter…"
"But you wanted to say something, I cut you off, I'm sorry,"
"No, no. Really it's not important, go make the cure."
"Ok, I'll be right back," Rose said running from the room. Edmund sighed and threw his head back in disappointment.
Rose was in the medical room making the cure when Peter came in.
"Rose there is something I need to show you," Peter said
"Can it wait? It's just I am in a hurry, I have the cure to their illness," Rose said,
"If you hurry it can but be fast as possible!"
"Ok," Rose said running out with cure. She gave it to Edmund first, then Lucy and finally Susan. She told them to sleep and she walked back to Peter.
"Have you seen the Nurse?" Peter said,
"No, she has been missing for days," Rose said,
"We have found her,"
"Where?"
"In her home,"
"But that sounds normal… loads of people can be found in their homes,"
"Very funny. But this is no laughing matter, follow me." Peter said. Rose followed him to the Nurse's house just outside the castle walls. She covered her mouth when she saw. The Nurse was tied the wall with ropes, she had a sword through her stomach, you could still see the fear in her eyes. Beside her on the wall was a note.
"Get her down at once!" Rose shouted as guards came and took her down. Rose covered her eyes. Peter walked over and hugged her.
"I can't get the image out of my head," Rose said into Peter's chest.
"Shhhh," Peter said rubbing her back. Rose pulled them apart and took the note from the wall. She read it out loud.
We are returning. We are coming to get our Queens kingdom back. Then we will bring her back. One month. Then we are coming. Prepare all you want. We will win!
W.W.F
"W.W.F?" Peter asked.
"White Witch's followers." Rose replied reading the letter again.
"But I thought they were all killed," Peter said confused.
"Apparently not." Rose said tears rolling down her cheeks. They were all doomed.
