A/N: This is a missing chapter from Prince Caspian. I don't remember when the Pevensies found out everyone they had known was dead, but it always bothered me that they didn't care. Especially Lucy, who in addition to Mr. Tumnus, seemed to have a deeper connection with Narnia and its people than did Peter, Susan, or even Edmund. Feeling C.S. Lewis left out a small, but crucial, scene, I decided to write it for him. (super short, but hey.)
"Oh there you are," said Susan in relief. Her younger sister was hunched on a rock, knees to her chest and arms wrapped tight. "We were so worried – Lucy?"
Lucy twisted around to look at her sister. Her eyes were red, her cheeks blotchy.
"Everyone's dead," she said. "They're all gone. The Beavers, the Foxes, Riam, Ossian, Mr. Tumnus…" she choked, and burst into tears.
Lucy brought out a handkerchief, apologizing, but she cried even harder when she realized it was Mr. Tumnus'.
"Oh, dearest." Susan hugged her sister tightly, rocking back and forth like their mother used to do all those years before.
They stayed there for a long time, what felt like hours. Then the tears were wiped away, the faces washed from canteens, and they returned to their brothers.
