The
Return to
Narnia.
BY: Randall Morton
Chapter 1: Lucys dream.
It was late October. Halloween was drawing near. The war in London had still be raging and was showing no sign of ceasing any time soon. Living in the mansion now became relatively fun for the children. Now that the professor took a very questionable interest in the children's visit to Narnia.
The children's rooms was on the third floor of the Mansion. All lingering in one hallway. Secluded they seemed from the outside world. But just down the hall, up the small flight of stairs and to the right through the door lingered The Wardrobe. The Wardrobe that could lead them back to Narnia.
Lucys' door however was furthest from the Wardrobe. On the opposite side was Edmunds. Beside Edmunds was Susan's and opposite from Susan's was Peters.
Lucy had been tucked in that night by the Professor. Who had been telling her wonderful Adventures of his time. But Lucy kept wandering in her mind about her own adventures in Narnia. Living in the Castle Cair Paravel and Mr. Tumnus. The lamp post that stood just only on the other side of the Wardrobe.
The Professor had turned of the light and left the door cracked so that a small light from the hallway could creep into Lucys' room. As Lucy closed her eyes, Aslan's face came to mind. How his beautiful mane flowed in the wind, how he seemed to make the sun shine more brighter that the dawn.
Then his voice seemed to whisper to her:
" Lucy, Narnia is falling. Cair Paravel has lost its glisten. You must bring you brothers and sister back to Narnia, for the Winter has come again and I alone can not defeat that which it brings. Queen of Narnia, will you help me?" Then the voice fade and Lucy awoke.
Was it a dream? Was Alsan's voice just her imagination? Could Narnia really be in trouble? And worst of all Could Jadice, The White Witch, be returning?
Chapter 2: Convincing the Others.
Lucy lay awake in bed debating that if Aslan had been trying to reach her or if her own mind was wishing to hear his voice so much that it was imitating it. So in fear for Narnia, she threw back her blankets and slowly crept to the door that lead to the hall. Looking both ways to make sure that Mrs. Macready wasn't coming she walked to Peters room, and awoke him.
" But Lucy, Jadice is dead she cant come back." Peter said.
"But Winter has come back to Narnia. What else can bring back sleepless Winter to Everlasting Summer?" Lucy asked.
" I am sure there is a very good explanation. And besides what makes you think you can get back into Narnia?"
" What makes you think you cant. We were Kings and Queens. We lived in a Castle, dont you remeber Castle Cair Paravel was its name and beside the sea is were it stood looking east." Lucys asked. " What happened to "Peter the Magnificent" ordained by Aslan?"
Peter gazed at her for a moment. It had been years since their return from Narnia. Why did Aslan call on them now?
" What would make Alsan call on us now?" Asked Peter.
" Peter, its only been 1 year since our return he couldnt have forgot us."
"Why not Lu?"
" Because its only been a couple months more in Narnia time. If we can remember them why wouldn't he rember us? Have you forgotten his love to?" Lucys' eyes began to fill with tears.
"Of course I Remember LU. Lets get Susan and Edmund."
As Peter held the small hand of his sister and led her across the hallway into Susans room her heart began to race. They were really going to try to go back to Narnia.
"We are not going back to Narnia. The War could end any day now and mom will be waiting back home." Argued Susan.
" But what if she isnt. Aslan said," Lucys began to tell them the message Aslan had gave her.
" Aslan is the king of the wood, the god of our world why would he need our help with anything Lucy. Your making up in your head." Susans said cutting her off.
"THATS ENOUGH SUSAN! Now both of you stop it." Peter demanded. " Now even if she is what would it hurt just to try to go back to Narnia just for a visit?"
"Fine then you go get Edmund and tell him your bright idea." Susans said sarcasticly.
Peter turned and walked out of the room and into the next-door-room and woke Edmund. But before Lucy walked out she turned to Susan with a sad look on her face.
" Whether you like it or not Narnia needs us. You are no true Queen of Narnia. A Queen of Narnia would have more faith for her country. What happended to you Susan?"
In the next room Peter explained to Edmund the whole situation and all that Edmund had to say was:
" Really well if you would let me get my coat I'll pack all three of you there on my back!...Just kidding."
Chapter 3: The Wardrobe
Each child save Susan was excited about going back to Narnia for each child still belived in it. They all walked down the long hall in there gowns and pajamas and robes holding candlestick to see into each room. And befor they knew it they had crossed they hall up the stairs and in the door that lead them to the Wardrobe. Peter looked at everyone then he licked his lips and slowly reached for the door knob.
As he pushed it open the hinges creaked and clanked and the door thudded against the behind wall. They all walked to the figure that was hidden under a huge white sheet, only this time the figure hadnt been so magnificent and majestic once the sheet had been pulled away.
They all stood with mouths droped and eyes wide open for the Wardrobe wasnt the same.
The glossy finish it had had before had now became dull and dark. The hinges and handle were rusted and broken but still Lucy went on. Before she open the door to the Wardrobe she turned to Susan with a mad look and said:
" I told you there was something wrong!"
Susan got some pretty nasty stares and looks from Peter and Edmund but the one look she felt bad about was the honest look that Lucy had given her. A look that tells you what would have happened if you had not been there at that moment or belived something that others did.
Lucy dusted off the rust and dirt from the door knob and placed her small had around it. Slowly she opened it and all the creaking and clanking that the hinges made could not over power the emotions and breathes that the kids made as they looked inside of the Wardrobe.
Lucy stepped up in the Wardrobe and as the heals on her slipperes clicked on the wood she turned and said:
" What are you waiting for, Alsan needs us. COME ON!" and with that she vansihed into the long line of fur coats as her brothers and sisters followed.
Chapter 4: What Followed After
As the kids had walked down the hall into the room and in the Wardrobe they was another that saw them. One that followed them into the room just in enough time to see the last foot pop behind the fur coats.
It was an old man. White hair stuck straight out but bald on top. With a pointed beard, glasses on his nose, and a pipe in his mouth.
" So they did get in after all..." he whispered to himself. Then he bent over and slowly creeped into the wardrobe and closed the door behind.
"There it is, There it is, the Lamp Post of Narnia. Its still hear. This is wear i last met Mr. Tumnus." Lucy shouted with glear. " And Pete said we couldnt get it...Hes crazy.." she began to giggle to herself.
But Peter was thinking that when they stepped back into Narnia that they would be as old as they were when they left but they werent. They all were still children and teenagers the same age they were when they stepped through the Wardrobe door.
Then suddenly there came a breaking of twigs and brushing of trees.
" Its Mr. Tumnus... He will love to see all of us again. Mr Tumnus," Lucy shouted then she paused. "Mr. Tumnus!" She called once more.
" I'm afraid that Im not the Faun Tumnus, but you do no me quiet well." Then from out behind the trees stood an old man with a pointed beard , glasses and a pipe in his mouth.
"Professor!" They all shouted. Indeed there was the Professor.
" All these long years and Narnia still hasnt changed." said the Professor
"You mean Narnia was Winter when you came here?" Edmund asked.
"But I thought that Jadice, I mean The White Witch made it Winter." Susan said.
" No, no , no not at all. Narnia had seasons just like our world when i last came. But that was before Aslans rule. Jadice had an aunt Emin,who ruled over Narnia before Aslan did. Then When the battle of the seven forces started she was killed and Aslan took control of Narnia and made it Spring all the time.
" Then he made peace with all the other armies and together they created the stone table and carved the very words that are still there today."
" But when Aslan resurected they stone table split and ..." Susan began.
" Wait let me Finish. They put the body of Emin in the center of the Stone Table and when the Stone Table split her soul returned to Narnia. Aslan was gone before he could stop her and now shes far to powerful for him alone to stop her. He needs the true Kings and Queens of Narnia Help."
"That us, Wow!" Lucy whispered.
"What must we do?"
