It had been days since Samantha had last been awake and the meadow had grown into a death bed for man of the Witch's soldiers

It had been days since Samantha had last been awake and the meadow had grown into a death bed for the Witch's soldiers. Many of them lay scattered among the trees and some were still holding on to life. Though it was not a pleasant sight many of the trees and flowers had grown. Shrubberies and Forget-Me-Not's were growing all over. It seemed to have burst into life with small birds and animals. Samantha was still invisible but a young rabbit by the name of Sir William was walking about when he saw the horrible sight of death in front of him.

"I say this is rather intriguing see my oppressors lying dead front of me." He said. Sir William was a wise old rabbit who was an encyclopedia of Narnia's history and traditions. He often strolled around Beruna admiring its beauty and taking in the fresh air. It was by happenstance did he know of the meadow that was called Forgler's. He found a small berry patch that kept him coming back for years. He found his way over to that patch but was suddenly unnerved by the presence he felt.

"This is very odd, I feel as though someone is here in Forgler's as though a fairy came through and spread some magic." He quietly told himself.

Now Sir William being a wise old rabbit gave only a minute to this thought before realizing the rock near his berry patch could not touched. He knew it must be a fairy for the presence around the rock had created flowers of all varieties. He took out a bit of something from his patch that he carried with him and sprinkled it along Samantha. Without any delay Samantha's entire body was revealed. Sir William congratulated himself on his find before running off to Cair Paravel to tell their majesties.

At the Castle

The new Kings and Queens of Narnia were fast at work all around their kingdom. Lucy and Susan were gone on a tour to help those who were less fortunate because of the Witch. Edmund and Peter were already building up another army and casting agreements with other nations surrounding Narnia. The castle was quiet and the two brothers were glad they did not need to stand on ceremony. There was a sudden knock on the door to the Castle study where Peter and Edmund had been. They both turned to see Mr. Tumnus standing in the doorway with a small rabbit next to him.

"If there Majesties permit Sir William Farthington Rabbit of the Western Wood would like to see you for a moment." Tumnus stated. He was very happy with his new accommodations at Cair Paravel and was proud to be a family friend.

"Go ahead Sir William tell us what you have come for." Peter said as he poured some water for the knight. Sir William obviously seemed exhausted.

"Thank you Your Majesties, I was walking past the fords at Beruna when I came across a meadow there. It is a very large meadow with lots of berries for eating and that sort of thing but anyway I started to feel an odd sensation as though there was a presence with me when I suddenly noted that a rock could not be touched. In other words something was in front of it. Yet, there was nothing there." Sir William stopped to drink and allowed his excitement to calm. Both Peter and Edmund were equally intrigued by this.

"I started to think of what this could be when I remembered that I had some fairy dust in my pouch. It's the stuff fairies cannot stand, in fact it stops them from using there powers for a while. So I sprinkled it along the rock when to my surprise there was the most beautiful young fairy I ever did see. But then I noticed she had a Witch's arrow stuck in her shoulder which can easily kill any one person but fairies can with stand large amounts of pain for long periods of time." He said. Peter and Edmund were both sitting in chairs looking for books that had anything to do with fairies.

"I thought there were no fairies in Narnia" said Peter.

"For a long time any fairies went into hiding because the Witch could kill them. You see fairies could control the entire wood and with Aslan's help could bring sping back. But alas, the Witch found many of them and their traditions and spells were lost forever."

"So how did you know this was a fairy if none of them exsist?" Edmund asked.

"The Flowers…they seemed to have grown all around the rock where she sleeps. If you pay attention many flowers and plants will tell you things." Sir William said. His stories were captivating Peter and Edmund. Even Tumnus was listening.

"So you're saying that this fairy is still out there?" Peter asked.

"Yes!" said Sir William.

"Well we better move along," Peter said. Edmund sat up and grabbed his sword that was lying on the table.

They ran out the study doors and in to the throne room. Peter told one of his men to keep charge and gathered a small party to head out to the woods. All were very eager to see this young fairy especially Peter.

Back in the Forest

Samantha had woken up from her two day sleep. It was so warm and she could hear birds singing and near by streams trickling along the brook. She looked up to the mountains above her. None of them boasted any snow and everything was so green. The trees rustled along and she could here the laughter of dryads inside the woods. The world was not so still any longer. It was full of life and it seemed everything was so plentiful.

Samantha stood to watch. The pain was all there but her legs were not frozen anymore. She walked around when she felt something snap beneath her. It was a fallen Narnian Soldier. She looked around in absolute fear something was terribly wrong. The Witch's soldiers lay in the meadow. Flowers were popping up all over their fallen bodies. It was a terrible sight. Samantha realized the Witch had lost a battle. Her mother had told her that four humans had come to Narnia and were driving the Witch off her throne once and for all. Samantha did not know what to do, she was so happy and yet so disgusted by sight of the corpses.

She heard a sudden noise from beyond. It was a horse galloping and not only that but she could hear voices and armor clanging. Unsure what it was, Samantha tried to turn invisible again but something stopped her. She saw a twinkling like powder all over her and could not see to get rid of it. We know that poor Samantha was covered in fairy dust which could make it hard for her to try and turn transparent however; she was very unaware of these circumstances. The galloping and voices continued to ring out. Samantha stopped trying when she saw a white horse round the corner. She saw the rider was very young with a crown upon his head but thought nothing of the lad. In a state of absolute panic Samantha ran as fast as her little legs could carry her.

Now Peter who was riding atop the white horse thought he saw a girl with an arrow in her shoulder start to run and with that he chased after her leaving the rest of the party in shock. Edmund and the little rabbit, Sir William had stopped to examine the rock and found nothing was there before going after Peter.

Poor Samantha had very little idea what to do and ran until she came to a drop off in the woods. She could not break and went over the rocky cliff and fell to the ground. The young fairy could do nothing but scream in agony because the arrow in her was further inside her shoulder blade. Her cries did not go unheard by any of the party. Peter followed her down the small slope to where she lay.

It did not take that long to find the poor girl. Her screams of pain were very easy to hear. Samantha could see white horse come right next to her and saw a pair of boots swing down. Her eyes were glazed with tears but she could still see the boy clearly enough to see his crown. Peter saw her and could not help but be enchanted by her. He came down to the grass and took her head and placed it in his lap. Samantha was scared but could not help but feel that his touch made her tingle inside.

"What is your name?" Peter asked trying to calm her.

"Samantha Leonowins" She replied. It was hard to talk in between sobs and sudden rushes of pain.

"You are quite brave" Peter started. He was looking over her wound and was trying to avoid her stained dark brown eyes as well.

"Thank you, I am sorry I did not recognize you before. I was in panic…Your Majesty" Samantha said. She calmed down and looked at her new king in astonishment. How young he was.

"That is quite alright my Lady, now if you permit me to carry you to my horse and take you to Cair Paravel so they can remove this, I will." Peter said.

Samantha looked at him and he looked at her without realizing that Edmund and the others had shown up. They were both enchanted by one another. Peter looked at her. Her face was fair and white like china dolls and her dark brown hair was long and had curls in it. She had woven in small flower petals. Her dress was a pink like silk that caught in the wind.

"Peter, you know that it is late afternoon and it would take us at least three hours to get to Cair Paravel and with her injury I doubt we would make it before dark."

Peter looked down at the girl and could not help but feel sorry for her. Who would want to strike down a graceful thing like her? Samantha had started to feel drowsy and yawned a little.

"That's true; we should probably camp here and give her a few hours of rest after we take this out." He said.

The rest of the party decided it would before the best to stay the night before returning to the castle in the morning. Peter sent a messenger ahead to tell the people back home to wait one more day. Samantha was very tired and her body seemed to be shutting down. She did not want to eat even after spending almost four days alone with no food or water. She just thought of the arrow that was stuck in her.

Peter and Edmund made her very comfortable and let her rest a while before they would have her in surgery. Samantha rested for a long while. Her poor legs tired from running and her eyes were swollen from crying too much. The soldiers set up a large tent and made a small fire. They cooked dinner and talked a lot. But she noticed Peter and Edmund were sitting away from the group just talking and laughing with one another. She lay on a little blanket Edmund had given her and just watched the stars. She could not get Peter out of her head. She knew she had seen him somewhere but had no idea where.
