Epilogue
Annie
Annie emerged from the ocean, catching her breath. It was morning, and the sun was shining over her. She was wearing the exact same dress she was wearing when she left. That was when she knew she was back home.
There a lifeguard boat that past her, and two people pulled her up. They wrapped her in a blanket and asked questions, asking where her other friend was. She couldn't answer. She was too struck, too filled with mixed emotions.
Edmund was far from her, but he remained in her heart, and she hope she did in his. They reached the pier in less than an hour, and just then, Annie's life returned to normal. But she would never forget everything that happened in Narnia, for they changed her view on life forever.
Marina
It was the beginning of her new life. They sailed back to Cair Paravel immediately. Marina may have been granted a new life in Narnia, but she lost Annie.
But she didn't see it that way. She didn't lose a friend. Annie would always be her friend, no matter where they were, or what world they were in. Annie would always be the one who changed her as a person, who changed her to be a better person. She would never forget that.
Each gal lived their lives and grew. Not one moment did they forget each other, nor the time they spent in Narnia. They remained in each other for as long as both of them lived. That marked the truest friendship.
