Chapter 7: The first bombing

After George and Frank had left Edmund's behavior only worsened. On 9 December 1939 Edmund and Peter were having another argument.

"Edmund do your chores just like everyone else!" Peter scolded.

"NO, you're not my father just shut up!" Edmund yelled back as he pushed back his brother and ran out.

"EDMUND JAMES PEVENSIE GET BACK HERE!" Peter yelled as he saw his brother run away.

The park

Amelia was sitting underneath a tree with a book she had to read from her mother. As a dark headed boy dropped next to her she said without even looking up from her book : "Hi Eddie, what happened now?"

"Peter yelled at me again." Edmund said.

"What was it this time?" Amelia said as she rolled her eyes.

"I didn't do my chores." he said.

"Why don't you just do them and avoid the trouble?" She said as turned to him.

"Because Peter thinks he's my dad! And I don't take that from him!" Edmund yelled as he stood up.

"No need to yell you know." Amelia said as she stood up to face him.

"Sorry Am it's just I feel like I can't do anything right for anyone." Edmund said as he sank down.

"You can do something right for someone." Amelia said as she put her arm around Edmund's shoulders.

"Ohh yeah who?" Edmund asked.

"Me, Eddie." Amelia said.

"Ohh yeah you're the only one." Edmund said as he put his head on Amelia's shoulder.

"Don't forget that Eddie." Amelia said as she pulled him closer.

As they were sitting on the swing in the shared garden of the Andersons and the Pevensies on 24 august 1940. Suddenly they heard the whistling of a plane and a far away sound of a bomb dropping.

"EDMUND! AMELIA! Get inside hurry!" They heard their mothers yell from the Pevensie house.

"Mom what's wrong?" Edmund asked as he ran inside with Amelia who was supported by Edmund.

"The Germans are dropping bombs on London." Helen said.

"WHAT!" Amelia yelled as her eyes grew big.

"Come on we'll just hide in the basement." Helen said as she grabbed a flashlight. "PETER GRAB LUCY!"

"YES MOM!" Peter yelled as he ran up the stairs to get Lucy just as Susan came out of the room with Lucy.

"Peter what's going on?" Lucy asked as she hugged Peter.

"Nothing we're just going to play in the basement." Peter answered as he grabbed her hand and ran down.

As he entered the basement he shut the door seeing as everyone was present. They still heard the dropping of the bombs around them and the ground shaking as the bombs hit the ground. Lucy was sitting scared between Peter and her mother crying. Peter was trying to comfort her by whispering stories in her ears. Susan was sitting on the left side of Peter clutching his left arm scared. And Edmund refused to seek comfort with his mother or brother. And Amelia was withering between her mom and Edmund.

"When will it stop?" Amelia asked hysterical and sobbing.

"I hope soon." Edmund whispered afraid but refusing to show so.

As they got out the next morning they saw all the damage the bombs had done.

"Our house." Amelia whispered seeing what was left of her house.

"Maria why don't you live with us?" Helen asked helping her friend to her house which was left completely. Maria was left in shock seeing all her belongings gone.

"Come Am." Edmund said as he lead her to his room where she would be sleeping from then on.

Edmund's room

"It's all gone." Amelia said as she sank down on Edmund's bed as she cried. "All the pictures. My dad's picture it's gone." Amelia said as she hugged Edmund.

"You stay here I'll go look if I can find something." Edmund said as he flattened her hair.

"Alright I'll just try to sleep." Amelia said as Edmund tucked her in his own bed.

Edmund looked around as he stepped carefully on the rubble. He found a picture of the Andersons together, a picture of her father and Amelia's doll.

As he returned to his room he showed what he had found to Amelia when she woke up.

"This is all I could find. That was still whole." Edmund said as he showed what he had found.

"Teddy." Amelia said as she grabbed her doll. "This was all?" Amelia asked just to be sure.

"Yes that was all." Edmund said as he lowered his eyes. "I'm sorry." He said as he hugged his best friend.

"It's alright you're not the one who destroyed my home." Amelia said as she grabbed her doll harder.
