NOTE: The characters you will be meeting later in this chapter, have been made alittle older then they really are in the movies and books…just a heads up.

Alahna

It was the next morning when I found myself accompanying Prince Caspian on his journey to regain his throne.

I was riding next to Roseanne. Caspian rode up next to us. "Hello Roseanne, Alahna." He said bowing his head; we both bowed in return.

"Roseanne, I wish to speak with you privately, if you'll excuse us Alahna." He said this kindly, and my heart dropped as they rode towards the front.

I couldn't help it.

I stared at him in awe, his thick Latin accent, shoulder length black hair, strong demeanor, and courage.

He was perfect.

I pulled Calypso back and trotted at the very end of the line. I went over what was happening. He's falling for Roseanne, I thought angrily.

I pulled back further away from the group. I trotted further into the forest to think. "Ugh, how could this be? He doesn't even notice me!" I shouted in anger. Calypso snorted in anger at my sudden attitude; I sighed. "Sorry girl, I'm just frustrated."

I jumped off Calypso and walked around the forest, noticing the head of the first of our troops, a Minotaur, coming through the trees. At my left, I also noticed a boy who looked a few years older than myself creep up behind the Minotaur, his sword poised for an attack.

My eyes narrowed, I took my own sword, Viper, from my hip and raised her. As he was going for the Minotaur, I jumped out of the bushes and clashed swords with the blonde boy.

Suddenly Caspian appeared and shoved me aside to battle the boy himself. I flinched as I stood. I looked down at my arm; Caspian had thrown me so hard that a rock had stabbed me.

I winced when I tried to take it out.

"Stop!" a young brown haired girl shouted.

I looked up to see Caspian trying to take the boy's sword out of a tree. The blonde boy was grasping a rock, ready to hit Caspian with it.

"Peter!" Another girl shouted. She looked to be maybe only a year older then I. Behind her, I saw a boy that looked to be about my age. Next to him I saw the dwarf from the Castle.

"High King Peter?" Caspian asked with a cut lip.

"I believe you called." The king answered.

"Well yes, but I thought you'd be older."He said embarrassed.

"If you'd like we could come back in a few years." Peter answered quickly.

Caspian got a scared look. "No! You're just not what I expected."He explained and stared at the girl who had called Peter's name.

My blood boiled.

"Neither are you."The younger boy said. I snickered, and then groaned in pain.

All eyes darted towards me. "Alahna!" exclaimed Roseanne.

The younger boy, with charcoal colored hair ran towards me and helped me up, ripping the sleeve on my injured arm. The young girl gasped at my wound.

"Here, open up." She said softly and sat next to me. I opened my mouth and she dropped a sweet liquid into it. I gasped as my wound started to close and the sharp jagged rock came out of my arm.

"How'd this happen?" High King Peter asked, staring at me intently.

"When I was pushed… I fell on my own sire." I answered softly, not wanting to get Caspian in trouble. "Was it you I was originally fighting?" He asked me, I nodded.

"Trumpkin!" Roseanne shouted.

I got angered just by her presence. I took out my dagger, throwing it at the tree by Caspian's head.

"Alahna!" Roseanne snapped. I ignored her and turned to the newcomers.

"It's a pleasure to meet you High King Peter." I bowed.

"The pleasure is truly mine m' lady." He said bowing and taking my hand to kiss it. "This is Edmund, Susan, and Lucy." He pointed at the boy and girl who had helped me, and then the girl who had caught Caspian's eye.

"Hello, Your Majesties." I bowed to each of them. Peter looked at me, "May I please speak to you alone Alahna? I wish to know what is going on here." I nodded and said, "I need to get my horse, will you accompany me?" He agreed and we went into the woods where I took Calypso off the tree and then walked off with Peter.

"Tell me Lady Alahna…" He started.

"Alahna please, I don't like that title." I cut in.

"Well Alahna, what is Caspian like?"He asked.

I shrugged. "Noble, proud, kind, maybe. I'm sorry but I've never actually spoken to him. You should talk to Roseanne, he talks to her often." I said bitterly.

Peter nodded. "It's alright, I can already tell he's going to be a handful. Well anyway, I'd say you have good fighting abilities. The way you cut in before I attacked."

I blushed. "Thank you, but I'm not that great." I took a look at the hilt of Viper.

"Well I'd say you could match Edmund's abilities." He jumped onto Calypso. He held out his hand for me. I took it and he pulled me onto Calypso behind him.

We rode to where the others were. I looked at Roseanne; she looked annoyed. I was confused but didn't have time to dwell on it. We were riding to out "Fortress" as Caspian called it.

The entire time I rode with High King Peter.

I tried my hardest to make Caspian notice.

OK Devil, that chapter required a lot of editing. Not to be mean, I love you, but that took a lot out of me. You should try editing all of this! It's EXHAUSTING. You say "and" a lot you know? Haha! However, I love where it's going. Jealousy. Lots of it.
