Faith: *blinks* What?
Elysia: Narnia! This is -
Aileen: The most wonderful thing ever!
Faith: Oh. Ok. So the big, scary looking hole wasn't such a bad idea after all.
Elysia: Don't rub it in.
Faith: Fine, I won't.
Aileen: What should we do now?
Elysia: Let's see if we can find the lamp-post! It should be somewhere close by.
Aileen: Well, let's ask that hedgehog over there where we are. *to hedgehog* Excuse me, sir. Do you happen to know who the King is? We're from... um... Archenland. Visiting relatives.
Hedgehog: Certainly, dear girl. King Caspian is about to set sail. You know, some of my own relatives told me that he's looking for three medium-experienced sailors. The castle is 5 days walk from here.
All: Oh.
Hedgehog: For me and my kin, that is.
All: Oh!
Elysia: Thank you, um... I don't know your name.
Hedgehog: Oh, don't worry. I'm Bushhunter.
Elysia: Thank you, Bushhunter. *Bushhunter trots off*
Faith: Well, I'll be...
Aileen: Looks like we know where to next.
All: The Dawn Treader.
Faith: Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! This is so cool! Why couldn't I have landed in Twilight?
Elysia: Ahem!
Faith: Not that Twilight is cooler than this (well it is) but I have dreamt about it forever-
Elysia: Ahem!
Faith: Does this mean all story worlds are real? Harry Potter and Narnia and Maximum Ride and everything and it's so cool!
Elysia: AHEM!
Faith: And it's just-
Aileen: Cut it out! You are SO pulling a Nudge.
Elysia: Faith, it doesn't really matter what happened, we're gonna meet PRINCE CASPIAN for Christ's sake!
Aileen: If Narnia is real, then when we get back, we are SO trying to find Max and the Flock. Maybe, if we walk through the hole again, we'll get WINGS!
Elysia: That's the distant future. RIGHT NOW, we need to get to the Dawn Treader!
Faith: Y'know, Elysia, if we found ourselves here, and we don't know how, we should try to blink wings for ourselves.
Aileen: BRILLIANT! On the count of three... one... two... THREE!
*All blink and find they have wings*
Faith and Aileen: YES! It worked!
Aileen: Up, up and away!
*Aileen blinks again and wings stay put*
Faith: Huh?
Aileen: I thought I wish I had wings until I didn't need them. I guess it worked.
Elysia: Enough talking. To the Dawn Treader!
*all fly across Narnia*
Aileen: *points* Oh look! The sea!
Elysia: We're almost there! Is that the ship over there?
Faith: The one with the purple sail?
Elysia: That's it! I can't believe it!
Aileen: Well, you'd better believe it; cause we're almost there!
*they land on the beach*
Aileen: Oh, my gosh. It's spectacular!
Elysia: I know!
Faith: D'you think that we'd better ask for jobs?
Aileen: Probably. They might shoot us if we just showed up flying.
*all blink and wings disappear*
Elysia: I think that's... um... one of the sailors. *to sailor* Excuse me, sir. We're looking for work and we heard that His Majesty's ship is in need of some middling experienced sailors. Do you know where we can ask about it?
Sailor: Aye, little miss. I'm Rhince, of His Majesty's ship the Dawn Treader. Oh, and here comes His Majesty himself!
*Young man walks up*
Caspian (in the flesh!): Ah, good day, Rhince. Who are these three girls?
Rhince: Good day, Your Majesty. These girls were looking for work on the ship.
Caspian: I see. Well girls, how much experience do you three have on ships?
Aileen: *obviously excited* We have a fair amount, Your Majesty.
Elysia: And we're very fast learners.
Caspian: Alright then. What are your names?
Aileen: I'm Aileen, and these are my friends, Elysia and Faith.
Caspian: A pleasure to meet you, I'm sure. *pause* Well, if you're going to work on the ship, I suppose that you might want a little tour of it, first, correct?
Aileen, Elysia, and Faith: *look at each other*
Faith: Yes, we would like that very much, Your Majesty.
Faith *whispering to Elysia and Aileen* This is so cool... but you do remember what happened on the Dawn Treader, don't you? It won't be easy.
Elysia: *whispering* We wouldn't want to mess anything up, or change the story, but it looks like we might already have done too much.
Aileen: That's okay, maybe since we know everything that's going to happen, we can make the "Voyage Of The Dawn Treader" a little easier. *in her regular voice*
*Caspian turns around, shocked and suspicious*
Caspian: What did you say? Did you just say you knew what was going to happen?
Aileen: *nods*
Elysia and Faith: Aileen!
Aileen: But it's the truth!
Elysia: But you didn't have to say that out loud!
Caspian: What is this supposed to mean? *a little upset*
Reepicheep: Excuse me, Your Majesty?
Caspian: *slightly frustrated* What is it, Reepicheep?
Reepicheep: Oh, I didn't know that you had company *indicating Elysia, Aileen, and Faith*, I can come back in a few minutes, if you would prefer that.
Caspian: No, it's alright. What is it?
Reepicheep: I was just asked by the captain to inform you that we would be ready to sail in half an hour.
Caspian: Thank you, Reep.
Reepicheep: *bowing* My pleasure, Sire.
Caspian: *motions for them to sit and sits too* Now. What do you mean by 'We can make the Voyage of the Dawn Treader a little easier'?
Aileen: *bows her head, a bit ashamed* I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I spoke without thinking. But we - all of us - know a bit of the voyage to come...
Elysia: Like in a few days, you'll see old friends, and a... um... new but not happy friend.
Faith: And you'll find the Lord Rhoop in a scary place, trying to escape.
Caspian: But how do you know my quest? *surprised*
Aileen: We know a couple things. But other parts are blank stretches, and then there'll be a spark of knowing what happens next. That's the way it is for me, at least. *turns to others* I don't know about you lasses, though.
Faith: That's fine. I guess you could say we know of all the major events... IDEA!
*Caspian jumps*
Aileen: It's alright, your majesty, she does that a lot.
Faith: Sorry, your majesty.
Caspian: Quite alright my dear.
Faith: Elysia! Do you happen to have your bag on you?
Elysia: Yes... why...?
Faith: Do you happen to be carrying a certain book...? I think the King might find it interesting...
Elysia: No. NO No NO No NO!
Aileen: ABSOLUTELY NOT!
*all look over to see Caspian leaning towards them with an engrossed look on his face*
Faith: Great! Then you have it!
Elysia: We are not going to have Caspian read "Voyage of The Dawn Treader"!
