Hey everyone! This chapter is the battle, but I have not written a lot about the battle. You will see why once you read it. Writing right now is just really hard for me at the moment, but I tried my best to give this story an ending that you will never forget, and hopefully like. BTW, would you guys like a sequel (Voyage of the Dawn Treader) in the near future?

Eden stared at the wall of the room that she shared with Caspian. The decision had been made. There was no turning back. The decision to have Peter go into battle with Miraz was final. There was absolutely nothing she could do about it, no matter how hard she wanted to.

"Eden?" Peter's voice was soft as he stuck his head into the room. He knew how upset she was about the decision, for she ran out of the room rather quickly once she found out. He came up beside her and sat next to her, his weight making the small bed shift.

He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer, but her eyes were still on the wall ahead of her.

"Eden, you know that this is the only way." He sighed. "It is my duty as king and besides, I am a rather good swordsman..."

Eden cut off his words by placing a soft kiss on his lips. She put a hand on his neck and stared into his eyes.

"I know you will be fine, Peter." She smiled as Peter swallowed. "You are an amazing king and I know that Miraz will rue the day that he agreed to fight King Peter, the Magnificent."

Peter was stunned by the honesty in her voice and nervously chuckled. "That was a bit corny, don't you think?" he teased.

Eden laughed and bumped him gently on the side. "Oh, shut it. Now," she stood up, and grabbed Peter by the hands and pulled him up. Once he stood, she wrapped her arms around his waist and he kissed her forehead. "Let's get you ready, Sire."

She smiled as she held his hand and walked out of the room.

"Are you ready?" Susan asked Lucy and Eden as they were about to mount their horses.

Lucy nodded confidently and Eden smiled. "As ready as I can be, I guess." Eden then climbed onto her brown horse, and tightened her sword around her waist.

Susan gave a grim nod and mounted her horse. Caspian entered the room and smiled at Eden and ruffled Lucy's hair before helping her climb on the back of Susan's horse.

"Be safe." Caspian said sternly as he looked up at Susan. Eden grinned at the exchange and watched how Susan's cheeks grew crimson. She nodded and Caspian unhooked the horn from his belt to hand up to her.

"Keep it. You might need to call me again." Susan said with a smile as the three girls rode off, leaving a grinning Caspian in his place.

"You may need to call me again?" Lucy mimicked as Eden laughed.

"Oh, shut up!"

The three girls rode deep into the forest, keeping their eyes open for any sign of Aslan.

"They've found us!" Lucy screamed and Susan and Eden shared a worried glance before urging their horses to ride faster. Susan readied an arrow and shot it at one of the Telmarine soldiers, hitting him in the chest. He fell down instantly, only for another to come. It seemed like they were never-ending, these soldiers. They kept coming closer and closer to Eden, and she would hit them with her sword, but there were too many for her. Her injuries were still present, and made her grow tired easily.

Susan noticed this and- once in a clearing- jumped down off of her horse.

"Susan, what are you-?" Eden started, coming closer to a shocked Lucy.

"There is no time! You are in no condition to fight and we need Aslan. Please protect my sister!"

Eden gave a nod as Lucy was trying to protest.

"No, Lu. Go, I will be fine."

The sisters shared one more glance before Susan urged them to go. Eden looked beside her and noticed a single tear escape the little girl's eye, but she would not say anything more. In fact, it appeared as if Lucy was more fierce and determined as ever. How very valiant of her.

"This way!" Lucy shouted to Eden, taking in a clearing ahead of her. She had a feeling that the majestic lion might be there. A very good feeling.

Eden followed the young girl, but noticed something moving in the trees. She narrowed her eyes and took a closer look, noticing the armor of the Telmarine's.

"Lucy!" She screamed and raced beside her. "They are gaining on us! We have to get out of here!"

"No, we can't! I know that he is here!" Lucy turned her head and bore her gaze into Eden's. Susan's words echoed in her mind, please, protect my sister.

"I will do just that." Eden said to herself as she unsheathed her sword and raced off her horse.

Lucy looked at her shocked, but nodded in thanks and galloped away through the trees. Eden swung her sword in her hand; waiting for the Telmarine's to show them.

Three large men wearing all black armor came out of the clearing, each with looks of death in their face. They did not care if they hurt a woman, which showed just how heartless they were.

Eden waited for someone to strike first, and she looked around slowly as they were circling around her.

"Well, well. If it isn't the young Eden. Didn't you used to live in the castle."

Eden did not reply.

"You aren't talking?" One said and he shrugged his shoulders. "Very well."

With a battle cry he swung his sword down hard, but she blocked it with her own. There was no doubt in her mind that he was strong, and her wounds were starting to be sore. But she kept fighting. Pushing him away just in time, she dodged another blow from the other man and kicked the one behind her with her foot. She could only guess where her foot hit, for the high pitched squeal of the man gave her an idea.

She was slowing down though, and before she knew it, a large hand came around her neck; cutting off her airway. She gasped for air that she desperately needed and her face turned an unhealthy shade of purple.

The men smiled cruelly, before a large roar ripped through the air. They looked up and saw a great lion running through the trees towards them. With one swipe of his mighty paw, all three of them fell to the ground; dead.

Once the man's hand was off of her neck, Eden collapsed to the ground and gasped for air. "It's. About. Time." She said in between gasps.

Aslan laughed slightly before growing serious again. "Come. Climb on my back. Lucy is in need of our help."

Without hesitation, Eden nodded and climbed. Aslan took off and she was amazed at how fast he could go. They came to a clearing in the woods and saw Lucy staring up in fright at a man who was aiming a bow right at her. Aslan roared, and attacked the man, with Eden holding onto his mane for dear life.

"You really know how to kill, Aslan." She muttered, looking at the dead man whose eyes were still open in shock. Getting down off of him, she stared into his eyes and remembered the man that she had met. The man with the ever-changing eye color and could tell the lion was indeed him.

"I am not proud of that, daughter." He replied, walking over towards Lucy. Lucy grinned and ran towards Aslan, wrapping her arms around his mane. "I am so glad that you are here. What took you so long?"

Eden let them have their time alone, and walked slightly away- still in view- but just far enough to let them have their privacy. After a few minutes, Eden heard someone call her name.

"Eden!" Lucy said, rushing over quickly. "It is time to end this!" she said with a triumphant smile.

"What is your plan, Lucy? Aslan?" she asked as Aslan made his way towards them.

"You'll see." Lucy said with a smile as she climbed onto Aslan's back, Eden following her lead and climbing on behind her.

Lucy stood at the end of the bridge, her small dagger in her hand. The Telmarine's stopped on the bridge and stared at the girl. Suddenly, both Aslan and Eden appeared on each side of her, waiting for them to come. Peter, Edmund, Susan and Caspian stared at the trio on the other side of the bridge with large smiles on their faces. They had won, they were sure of it.

The General of the Telmarine's looked at them and, seeing them as no threat, raced across the bridge. Aslan let out a mighty roar, and the river came to life, taking the form of a man, and devoured everything in sight.

The Narnians cheered as the water was slowly dying down. Yes, they had won.

XxX

Peter, Susan, and Edmund rushed towards Lucy giving her a large family hug. Eden stayed off to the far side admiring the spectacle when a pair of large hands enveloped her in a hug.

She looked up at Caspian's face. "Well, hello there!" she said and laughed.

He joined in, then grew serious. "I am so glad that you are all right! I could not live with myself if anything had happened to you!"

"Wow, calm down!" she said and hugged him tightly once more. "I am here, Caspian. You know this."

He nodded as he was tapped on the shoulder. Caspian looked and smiled as he let go of Eden and walked away.

Peter stood there now, with a large smile on his face before taking her in his arms for his own hug.

"I was so worried about you." He murmured in her ear as he kissed her temple. "You had no idea."

"Same here." She replied, gripping him even closer.

"Peter, Eden." They broke their embrace—but still kept their hands held together- and turned to Edmund. "Aslan wants to see us."

They followed Edmund to the other side of the river and knelt before him along with Lucy, Susan and Caspian.

"Rise, Kings and Queens of Narnia." He said in a mighty voice.

The four siblings stood, leaving Caspian and Eden still kneeling in front of him.

"You too." Aslan said with- what appeared to be- a smile. Caspian and Eden looked at each other nervously.

"But I am not ready."

"It is with that knowledge that I know that you are." Aslan replied wisely. Caspian stood, beaming. Eden stayed where she was.

"Daughter, rise."

She did.

"Eden, you have done a great deal for this place, as well as for the hearts of many." She gave a side look towards Peter and smiled. "And with that, you shall forever be known as Eden, Daughter of Narnia."

Her eyes grew wide. "Than- Thank you so much, Aslan."

He smiled at her. Peter made his way towards her and kissed her quickly. "I am so proud of you, Eden! This is fantastic!"

Everyone stood in front of the crowd, Peter holding Eden's hand and Susan close to Caspian.

"How do we know that this will not lead us to our deaths?" Someone screamed from the crowd. Eden shuddered and huddled closer to Peter's side. How could someone think anything of that sort about Aslan. He was most certainly not leading them to their deaths. Peter wrapped an arm around her waist to comfort her and she was glad for the comfort. Ever since this morning, he had been distant. Almost sad, even. And no matter how hard she tried to get him to talk, he just wouldn't.

Suddenly, his next words answered her suspicions. "We'll go."

"We will?" Edmund asked.

"Yes. It is our time." Peter replied in an almost grim voice. "You will come back though. You and Lucy, at least, I think that's what he means."

" Did we do something wrong?" Lucy asked, heartbroken.

"No, young one. On the contrary. Peter and Susan have learned all they need to here."

Eden's head was pounding and there was a ringing in her ears as everyone began to say good bye to each other. She made her rounds; hugging Lucy, Edmund and Susan. They were unsure what she was feeling, because she almost looked ill. Then, as Susan and Caspian were having a make out fest in front of everyone, Peter came up to her, eyes downcast.

"You knew?" She asked, and he nodded.

"But, why? We just found each other again."

Aslan came up beside her and sighed. "It is your decision, my daughter. Stay here or leave."

Eden looked at him nervously. Here was her home, and Caspian, her best friend. She had lived here her whole life. Could she just leave? What if she was too scared too?

She smiled sadly and looked into the King's eyes that she loved so much. Yes, she had made a decision.

XxX

The four siblings walked out from Narnia and into their normal lives. Nothing changed from their time and they looked at each other with small smiles. Peter's smile broke into a frown as he stared down at the ground.

Just before he had left, Eden told him that she should stay there. That she had a job to do before she was to leave. He was heartbroken, yet accepted her decision. If Aslan was correct, he would see her again someday. So, before he left to go back to his normal life, they shared a passionate kiss and he held her hand until he was thrust to the other world.

He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked at Edmund, who smiled at him. Another hand- Susan- came to his other side and Lucy hugged him around the waist. As long as he had his siblings, he would be okay. He thought. But he knew that he needed that something extra, something would always be missing from him, if he didn't have-

"Phyllis, are you coming?" The four looked towards the train and saw a dorky looking boy talking to Susan. Suddenly, someone came into view behind him.

"Yes, Phyllis, aren't you coming?" Peter- along with everyone else- gasped. There stood Eden, long black hair pulled into a low ponytail and wearing the same uniform as Susan and Lucy.

Peter grinned from ear to ear and ran into the train, hugging Eden close to him.

Yes, they had been separated before, but not anymore.

And a voice cried over the whistle of the train, Do Not Be Afraid To Love

The End
