The Escaped Circus Lion, the Fallen Wall, and the Escaped Convicts
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Narnia books, as they belong to C.S. Lewis.
Authors note: This is my first Narnia fanfic, so please be nice, and I hope you like it. Since I noticed very few Eustace/Jill fanfics, I decided there should be more, and so I wrote one. Please Review!
It was during the same day that Eustace Scrubb and Jill Pole returned from Narnia. They, so Eustace first thought, were now too afraid to bully anyone, after Aslan, Caspian, and the broken wall had frightened them off. They did run away screaming, but since Aslan had disappeared, they appeared to have gotten over their fright. (The same couldn't be said for the Head, but that was a different matter.)
They were crowded around someone now, and whoever it was, was cornered outside the gym wall. Eustace, who still had some bravery left in him from Narnia, decided he would do whatever was possible to stop them. He hadn't seen Jill since they had come back, and decided to look over their heads, to make sure she wasn't there. It was Jill.
Eustace shouted at them, "Leave Jill alone!"
"One of them turned around, saying, "Ooh…. Calling Pole by her first name, are we?"
They left Jill and started circling around Eustace instead.
"And what if I am?"
"What cheek! Are you talking back to us Scrubb?" Edith Winterblott said, in her high shriek like voice.
"Yeah Scrubb, you used to do whatever we wanted you to do. But after last holiday, you completely changed. And now you're hanging around with people like Pole!" Said "Spotty" Sorner.
"What's Pole to you, anyway?"
"I think he fancies her…"
But what did Jill mean to Eustace? He hadn't thought of that. He knew they were friends, but didhe fancy her in any way possible?
"Can't think of an answer Scrubb?" Asked one of the Garrett twins.
"In a few minutes, the police will be arriving to search for a lion, a broken wall, and escaped circus performers. They won't find that," he said, getting braver. "But what they will find is that our Head is a horrible Head, for letting you lot run around a bully people just because you're her favourites. So I don't think you should bother me or Jill."
"Good luck with that happening Scrubb. I think there's more of a chance of us beating you up, then the police arriving."
As Adela Pennyfeather finished speaking, Jill came running towards them, and pointed towards the school entrance.
Slightly out of breath she said, "The police are here!"
This made them turn white with worry. They quickly ran off in the other direction without another word to Eustace or Jill. Jill and Eustace stood standing there, looking slightly pleased, knowing what would happen.
"I knew they wouldn't like the police showing up. Thanks to Aslan, this place will be different from now on. Maybe we'll have a proper Head too. I told you that Narnia makes people different, and I was right. You stood up to them and didn't even cry. And I'm tired of Experiment House 'experimenting' with such horrible teachers. So now that should go." Eustace said, not seeing Jill looking at the ground, deep in thought, with a smile on her face.
Eustace kept talking and Jill looked up at him.
"Thanks…" She began, and kissed Eustace on the cheek.
That stopped him from talking for a moment. But then he smiled, and walked off with her to see if anyone would get expelled.
And that's the End of the story for now…
