"What was that!" Saphira asked, springing up and turning to her human form. "I don't know!" Lucy exclaimed as she and her sister got out of bed. Soon, the three girls were out of their tent, looking around and figuring out that the sound might hadn't been their imagination for others came out of their tents. "What was that?" Saphira asked again. "It sounded like a raven… No, a crow… Yes, definitely a crow." Susan said, recalling all the times she and her siblings fought monster crows that have been causing havoc." "Maybe… I think it sounded like the ones we fought a long time ago… But I thought we destroyed all of them." Lucy said. "Yes, I thought so t-" Susan said but she was never able to complete that sentence. Suddenly, a gigantic crow sprung up behind the girl's tent and grabbed Susan's shoulders and took off.
"Susan!" Lucy wailed as she and Saphira tried to chase after Lucy's sister. Saphira even turned into a lioness to hurry up her pace. But alas, Saphira came to a lake and wasn't able to cross it. "Well? Did you get her?" Lucy panted as she caught up with Saphira. "No…" Saphira replied sadly, transforming to her human form. Lucy's eyes widened.
Saphira patted her back. It's because when Lucy's eyes become that big, it means that she's about to cry. "Don't worry. We'll save her." Saphira said soothingly. Suddenly, a pebble hit her head. "Ow! That hurt!" Saphira exclaimed as she stopped patting Lucy's back and started rubbing her head. Lucy giggled. Then she noticed something.
The pebble had a small note tied to it. Lucy bent down, untied the letter, and read it aloud.
"Your sister is now our captive. We demand five million gold coins if you want her safe return. Choose three of your most trusted companions to accompany you to rescue her and to pay us. If a month passes and you don't arrive, we promise that we shall eat her. Don't bring an army, or more than the given companions. There are swarms of us here and we can easily defeat your army. Good day and bad luck."
Lucy read. She looked up. She had tears in her eyes. "Don't worry Lucy! Like I said, everything's going to be okay." Saphira said as she put here hand down. "You're right. And crying won't get me anywhere." Lucy said, wiping her tears using the back of her sleeve. "That's the spirit!" Saphira exclaimed encouragingly. Lucy replied with a faint smile.
Soon, the two girls made it back to camp and many were asking them what that noise was. "Excuse me, please move aside… May we please pass? Thank you..." Saphira said as she guided Lucy to her brother's tent where they found them staring at Lucy, dumbstruck. "Lu, what happened?" Peter asked after he recovered. Lucy remained silent.
"Lucy, it's okay. Come on, we'll talk in private." Saphira said. "Alright. Come in." Edmund said as he opened the flap of his and Peter's tent. Soon, the two girls and two boys were sitting on opposite beds, the girls at one bed and the boys on the other. "So? What happened?" Peter repeated. Lucy took a deep breath and started explaining.
Saphira also helped. They told Peter and Edmund what happened to Susan and how the crow kidnapped her. Edmund and Peter were shocked when they heard about the crow. They also thought that they got rid of all the crows a long time ago. ""You've been running all morning. You must be starving, let us go and eat our breakfast." Edmund said as he stood up.
"The best thing I've heard all day." Saphira muttered as they went out of the tent. And soon, it was breakfast! Peter and Edmund kept asking Lucy to repeat the message the evil crows dropped on Saphira's head. They both wanted to know who the best that can go on the mission were. Peter voted for himself, Lucy, Edmund and Aslan.
Edmund voted for Peter, himself, Saphira and Aslan. Saphira voted for herself, Lucy, Peter and Edmund. Peter, Edmund and Lucy were surprised she didn't vote for Aslan. "He told me he has other problems in different places. He's leaving today." Saphira explained. "He is? Then why didn't he tell us?" Lucy asked.
"He said that there are other problems in different parts of Narnia. That's why he has to go. Actually, he might be leaving now. He said he's leaving when the sun is high in the sky." Saphira said, looking up. The three Pevensies also looked up and saw the sun shining straight down on them. Peter sighed and placed his head down.
"Well, he might have gone sooner or later. Remember what the Beavers said when we were last in Narnia?" Peter asked. "No." Edmund said as he also placed his head down. "Sorry Ed, you weren't there when Mr. Beaver told us." Lucy said as she placed her head down. "Aslan wouldn't want to stay in one place all the time. He's not a tame lion." Peter said.
"I guess we'll have to leave soon to rescue Susan." Saphira said as she placed her head down and faced the others. "Yes. We need to go immediately." Lucy said as she stood up. "Wait a second, Lu. Remember, we still need supplies. We don't want to starve on the journey." Peter reminded. Lucy frowned and sat down again. "But we need to hurry. Susan must be terrified by now!"
