Chapter 2: Missing

Peter felt the bright sun's rays behind this closed eye lids the next morning. He hadn't slept for the rest of the night, because he was scared of having more nightmares. He knew it was childish, but it couldn't bring himself to see his younger siblings' sufferings again.

At that moment, his door burst open. He started and quickly sat, only to wish he didn't because the room span. He shielded his tired eyes and rubbed them.

"Peter," said a child's voice

Looking up he saw, Lucy standing in this doorway. A look of complete horror on her face. She looked as though she was about to cry.

"Lu," he said, "what's wrong?"

Edmund appeared behind her, looking worried.

"What's wrong?" he asked again

Peter watched Edmund bit his lip; a look of fright was in his eyes.

"Susan's gone," he said

Peter raised his eyebrows, "what do mean she's gone."

Suddenly Lucy burst into tears. Peter blinked.

"Will somebody please explain to me what's happening?" said Peter feeling frustrated

"I told you," said Edmund sharply, "Susan's gone. Nobody has seen her since last night. The guards said they saw her head towards the woods last night, they said she never came back."

Peter stared at his younger brother. Lucy, whose body began to shake with sobs, looked up at Edmund, "Where is she, Ed? Why'd she leave us?"

The youngest girl turned and hugged he older brother. Edmund stoked Lucy's hair and tried to calm her.

"Maybe, she's just gone for a walk during the night. She might have fallen asleep in there during the night," suggested Peter

Edmund looked up at Peter, he face was very serious, "Peter, it was the western woods she went into. I know that place like the back of my hand. It may be all beautiful and safe during the day, but at night…well, that's a different story…"

"Why?" asked Peter sharply

Peter watched his younger brother hesitate. He looked down at Lucy, "How about you go and get yourself some breakfast Lu?"

"I couldn't be able to eat. I'm worried about Susan," her tear stained face appeared from his shirt

"We all are, Lucy but it's not much use starving ourselves about it," said Edmund

Sniffing loudly, the nine-year-old nodded, "Okay, but you have to eat too. And you Peter," she said turning to face Peter

Peter smiled at his baby sister and nodded, "of course. Me and Ed will be down in a few minutes."

"Promise?" she asked, giving Peter a half smile

"Promise," replied Peter, grinning at her

"Yes, well I am a little hungry," the brothers heard Lucy say as she walked down the hallway.

Checking that Lucy was out of eye shot, Edmund closed the chamber door and turned to his brother.

"As you know we still haven't found all of the Witch's army. They tend to hide out in the western woods, even though we've checked a million times during the day, we can't find any. But during the night is when they come out. They usually hide in the shadows of the trees. They wouldn't have dared attack anyone during the day, but at night they would have some nerve," Edmund explained

"But Susan would've had her bow, arrows and horn with her. I mean, she's a girl and all but when she wants to be, she murderous," said Peter

"Yes, I know Peter," said Edmund, sitting down at the end of Peter's bed, "But the thing is Susan didn't take her bow, arrows or horn."

Peter stared at his younger brother, "What?"

"Lucy went into her chamber this morning to find Susan not there. She called me and I saw her horn, bow and arrows next to her bed. Her bed was neatly done. So I'm guessing she never went back to her room last night," said Edmund sighing

Peter continued to stare at Edmund, "But," he said in a low voice, "if she did take her bow and arrows that means she wouldn't be able to defend herself and…"

"If she didn't take her horn she wouldn't be able to call for help. Do you see the situation?" said Edmund

"You don't think she was kidnapped do you?" asked Peter

"No," said Edmund, "Like I told you, the guards saw her leave. She was on her own."

Peter shook his head, "This doesn't make sense. Susan's not the type of person to go wondering around in the woods at night, when she knows it's not save. She worries so much about the rest of us. Why would she put herself in so much danger?"

Edmund merely shrugged, "I have no idea."

Peter narrowed his eyes, "Unless…"

"Unless what?" asked Edmund

"Ed, what if she was forced to go? I mean, I won't deny it, the Witch's army is still strong without her," said Peter. He had moved his gaze from his brother to the open window which showed the ocean.

"But, I told you, the guards said she was alone."

Peter shook his head, "No, what I mean to say is, what if they had threatened her or us to make her go into the wood alone to make it look as though she was running away. You know how much she fears for our safety. What if they said they'd murder us in our sleep or something to make her go?"

"Why?" asked Edmund, "For a ransom?"

Peter shook his head again, "No… no these something more to this then we think. I have no idea what it is, but I intend to find out. We must speak to Aslan."

Edmund nodded, "Well he's downstairs and he's waiting for us."
