The Lion The Wizard and The Wardrobe

Chapter 13

When Peter Susan, Madison, Will and Edmund reached the battlefield they saw that Black and his soldiers had made a small area where Will and Black would duel.

Madison gasped when she saw Lucy.

"Oh my," she whispered. "The poor girl."

The others could only nod.

Will glared at his opponent, who was arming up for the duel.

Black turned and smirked.

Will's expression did not waver.

His face was void of any emotion.

Will had a look of determination that anyone who caught eye contact with him would shudder and look away, but Black did not.

His grim expression was sinister.

Will and Black entered the arena, their gaze never leaving their opponents face.

Black's armor was all black and had a dark green emerald on his shield and breastplate.

He had replaced his staff with a sword that had emeralds in the handle.

Will's armor on the other hand, was a silver color with a red lion on his shield and breastplate; he was also carrying his father's sword with a gold handle with rubies.

Black and Will began circling each other, waiting for the other to make the first move.

After a few minutes, Will could see that Black was getting impatient.

Will remained calm, he WANTED Black to strike first, he WANTED Black to become frustrated and lost concentration.

A few minutes later that is exactly what Black did.

Black suddenly let out a growl of frustration and charged at Will with such a great force that Will nearly lost his balance.

Will quickly recovered and went for Black's arms and legs (where there was nothing but mail), but Black blocked him and then went for Will's chest.

Will quickly swung his sword up and while blocking Black's attack, caught him under his arm.

Black let out a hiss of pain or anger, Will did not know.

Black suddenly charged again and put all his strength into the swing that Will was pushed roughly to the ground, Will let out a gasped of pain, one of his ribs cracked painfully.

The Black began to swing his sword wildly at Will.

Will tried to block as many attacks as he could but Will was soon cover in cuts on his face and had a deep gash on his left arm (which was now useless).

Now Will only had his sword to protect himself and he was beginning to tire.

If the battle kept the way it was, they would all be doomed.


Peter had to hold himself back.

Will was losing, and there was nothing he could do to help him.

Peter turned to see the same emotion in the eyes of his brother, Edmund.

Susan and Madison had a look of terror.

Peter shook his head; this was no good at all.

His thought were suddenly brought back to earth when Will let out a cry.

Peter turned swiftly back to the arena to see that Black had made an even deeper and longer cut on Will's right arm.

Both of his arms were now useless; he was now defenseless.

"Will get up!" Madison yelled to her son with tear streaming down her face.

Black had now backed off ready to watch his opponent suffer.

"Will get UP!" Madison repeated.

That's when Edmund noticed something; he smiled slightly.

"Will you're not dead! Get up and fight!" he yelled.

Edmund's smile grew as he saw it again.

Peter frowned at his brother.

"Edmund this is no time for smiles." Peter scolded.

Edmund nearly laughed.

"Didn't you see it?"

Peter looked confused.

"See what?"

Edmund rolled his eyes.

"The way Lucy reacted when she heard me and Madison yelling at Will."

Peter watched Lucy as Madison yelled at her son again, he saw it aswell.

"That it!" Peter exclaimed, "That's why Lucy tuned herself out. Black had told her that he had killed Will! Look at her confused expression!"

Edmund nodded.

"She's trying to figure out what's going on."

Peter and Edmund informed Madison and Susan of their discovery, and soon everyone was shouting Will's name.

Andthe louder they became, the more Lucy began to react.


"Will! Will! Will!"

Lucy covered her ears trying to block out the echoing voices.

But it was no use.

The voices continued to chant over and over.

Suddenly images flashed before her, as if she was watching a movie.

FLASH

She was standing next to Black and his army and she could see Will, Peter and the others standing about ten feet away.

"Let her go Black!" Will demanded.

FLASH

Then she was standing in the same place as before but now she saw Will and Black dueling, and from the looks of it, Will was losing.

Suddenly Will was knocked to the ground and soon he had cuts all over his face and two deep gashes on both arms making them useless.

Black, seeing that he had the upper hand, backed away and watched as Will struggle to keep conscious.

Lucy shuddered as she heard Black let out a cruel laugh.

'Oh no!' Lucy thought, 'I'm seeing the vision all over again!'

Are you sure? Asked another voice.

Lucy was confused for a moment before she realized that it was not the same vision.

That could only mean one thing. Will is ALIVE!

FLASH

Lucy suddenly returned to her normal self, so suddenly that she stumbled and fell to her knees gasping.

Where was she?

Lucy blinked and looked around.

There was Will, alive but still in the same situation that she had seen him just moments before.

Lucy felt tears spring to her eyes.

This was her fault, if she hadn't been so gullible, Will wouldn't be in this situation.

Then not even stopping to think of what she was doing, she sprang to her feet and began to run towards Will.

But just as she was doing that, Black had decided he had waited long enough and went to give the final attack.

Lucy saw this and jumped on top of Will and blocked the attack with her body.

Lucy screamed, as Black's sword was drove intoher back.

The pain in her back was almost too much to bear.

Lucy shut her eyes and waited or hoped for the pain to subside.

Lucy felt someone grip her arm and she opened her eyes, to come face to face with a pair of chocolate brown eyes.

"Will," she whispered hoarsely, tears beginning to fall. "You're alive."

But before Will could say anything, Lucy found herself being yanked from Will.

Black glared down at her.

"You little wench! You are always getting in my way!"

Lucy was thrown through the air.

"Lucy!"

She heard several voice yell.

Lucy shut her eyes and braced herself forthe impact when her body would hit the ground.

But it never came.

Her fall was broken by something large and furry.


(A.N.—Well there's chapter 13! Hmmm, wonder what broke Lily's fall…R&R to find out!)
