Narnia (based on the movies) I only own the female version of Peter and the many others you don't recognize. Everything else belongs to C.S Lewis, though if anything happens in this story that you don't recognize from the books or movies is mine.
The next day I woke up early, as usual, and changed into a pair of old black trousers, loafers, and a blue long sleeve shirt. I combed my hair and pulled it back into a ponytail and brushed my teeth before leaving. It was quiet and tense that morning, Lucy was still upset and seemed to ignore us, Edmund was irritated more then usual, and Susan was worried and concerned; so I was and quiet. After we ate breakfast Susan and I went to see the professor. Susan sat nervously in the seat that sat in front of the professor's desk, but lied in the center of the room, and I sat on the armchair; it was a comfortable armchair (one you would see in the living room).The professor looked kind, but mysterious, after all this was the first time we've seen him, well in person, sense we got here. He took a pipe and lit it before speaking.
"It seems as though you have upset my housekeeper."
"We're very sorry sir, it won't happen again." I said trying not to seem rude, but trying to hurry up and get out of their.
I tried to pull Susan towards the door but she remained seated.
"It's our sister sir, Lucy." Susan said.
She wasn't seriously going to tell him what Lucy had imagined was she? I mean he was going to think we were crazy.
"The weeping girl." the professor said smiling a little while starting to write something.
"Yes, she's upset."
'Well duh! Isn't that what the professor just said?' I thought rolling my eyes.
"Hence the weeping." the professor said, making me smile.
"Well, Lucy thinks that she's found a magical land, in the upstairs wardrobe." Susan said.
This sparked the professor's attention, he looked shocked, surprised, and curious.
"What did you say?" he asked standing and walking over to us.
"The wardrobe, upstairs, Lucy thinks she's found a magical land." I said shocked, did he actually believe them.
"Lucy won't stop going on about it." Susan said.
It was true. Ever sense she had found Narnia, as she called it, whenever she was in her room, I would here her pretend to be in Narnia, and pretending to talk to animals; though that didn't concern me, it was the fact that she thought it was real that did.
"Well what was it like?" the professor asked.
"Like talking to a lunatic." Susan said.
"No, not her the forest."
"You're not saying you that you believe are you?" I asked.
"What and you don't?" he asked going over to his desk and sitting on the edge of it.
"Well Edmund said that they were just pretending." I said nervously, and feeling ashamed at myself for not believing the person who always tells the truth; and that was Lucy.
"And he's usually the most truthful one isn't he?" the professor asked.
"No, but this would be the first time." I said, I wasn't thinking when I said the last bit, well I was but I didn't mean to say it out loud.
"Well if he's not mad and she doesn't lie, then it's most likely that they were telling the truth." the professor said giving us a smile.
"Are you saying that we should just, believe them?" I asked semi confused.
"She's your sister isn't she? You're family. And you might just try acting like one. You may go." the professor said.
Susan and I left the room.
"Is it just me, or was that one of the weirdest conversations we've ever had with an adult?" I asked no one in particular.
"No that was definitely the weirdest. It almost sounded to me like he had been to this Narnia, you know the place that Lucy's been going on about." Susan said.
"I agree. Look how about we get everyone and play cricket, I mean it's not raining and the sun is out." I suggested.
"That sounds like a good idea." Susan agreed.
We found everyone in the parlor, the one we were in yesterday.
"What did the professor want to talk to you about?" Lucy asked, trying to be polite, though I could tell she was still upset, and that made me frown.
"I honestly have no idea now. But anyway, it's a nice day outside, why don't we go outside and play cricket, I'm sure there's some equipment somewhere." Susan said.
Everyone agreed but Lucy said, "I don't want to play, I'll bring a book and read."
"You sure?" I asked.
"Yes, it's not that I don't want to play, I just don't feel like it, but that's ok, you four can play." Lucy said reassuring us.
We all went outside, Lucy brought her favorite book Peter Pan, I swear if Peter Pan was real I'm sure she'd be in love, and she sat on the small hill near where we were going to play; and sat underneath the tree. I found a shed and inside, apart from old tools and new ones, were some cricket balls, but nothing else, well nothing that we could use to play cricket anyway, but I did find a bat.
"Well there's nothing here we could use to play cricket, but I did find some balls and a bat, and we could play some sort of ball game." I said bringing them out.
"All right, we can play baseball, except instead of having to swing three times, you only get one, and whoever chases the ball and catches it, gains 5 points. We each get separate points " Susan suggested.
"I'm fine with that." I said smiling at her even though we both could see big flaws in this game.
"Alright." we all agreed.
It was almost 10 am, the sun was bright in the sky, and we had been playing this whole time. Lucy had changed books and was reading Robin Hood, another one of her favorites. It was my turn to pitch, I noticed that Edmund was distracted again, he's been doing that a lot lately, getting distracted I mean, he would spend time just staring into space, and I couldn't help but worry about what was going on in that brain of his.
"Hannah winds up! And throws yet another wicket!" I said loudly throwing the ball at Edmund.
"Ow!" he said snapping his head to me as he grabbed his thigh.
"Oops. Wake up dolly daydream." I said not sorry in the least, picking up the ball as it stopped at my feet.
"Why can't we play hide and seek again?" Edmund asked looking at me.
I ignored the glare Susan gave me.
"I though you said it was a kids game." I said, it was true.
"Besides, we could all use the fresh air." Susan said.
"It's not like there isn't any air inside." Edmund said getting into a batting position.
"Are you ready?" I asked him.
"Are you?" he retorted.
I pitched and he swung. It went straight up to the third floor window, and we could hear it crash into something as the glass shattered. We all looked at each other in horror. Lucy came over to us and we all rushed inside and to the third floor. I remembered this being the floor that had the wardrobe in the one room, but I wasn't really thinking about that. We all stared in horror at the broken suit of armor that lied on the floor with our ball.
"You're going to be in so much trouble." Lucy said.
"Oh well done Ed." I said glaring at him.
"You balled it." he snapped at me.
"What on earth is going on up there?" we heard a familiar housekeeper ask.
"The Macready." Susan said.
"Run." I said.
And that was exactly what we did.
