Visibly Invisible 2: Prince Caspian
Chapter 2: Hell breaks loose
Warning: I don't own Prince Caspian or anything, otherwise I'd remember all the dialogues by heart which I don't. So the dialogues from the movie may be disturbed.
Dylexia's POV:
I won't tell you what happened next, just assume that we lost in the water fight and were currently soaked to the bone and Edmund was just enjoying his time with me. He picked me up around the waist and making me squeal, picked me up and twirled me around laughing. And then suddenly he stopped and accidently dropped me, looking up the cliff. I glared at him before following his gaze that landed on some ancient ruins. No biggie…and then it hit me…
Ruins?
In Narnia?
Ed was the first to voice his thoughts.
'Where do you suppose we are?' he sounded distant, his gaze never shifting from the mass of stone and rock. Peter, not paying any real attention, splashed water on Lucy and answered in a breezy voice.
'Well, where do you think?'
'It's just, I don't remember any ruins in Narnia,' that sure got their attention and the four, ignoring me on the sand, looked up to where Ed was pointing. I pouted some more and extended a hand to Ed, who looked at me and helped me up with an apologetic look; I ignored it.
'Come on!' Ed grunted pulling me up the cliff as I hung, yes hung from the edge. The others had gone ahead a long time ago, and I suspected they were giving us an Edlexia moment. If this was considered romance, then kill me because my hands were hurting.
And then thankfully, Ed managed to pull me up, causing me to land on top of him with a grunt. He looked so…innocent under me, staring at me with big brown eyes, his lips pulled into a smirk. I couldn't help it, I leaned in and…
'Get a room,' I snapped my head back up, blushing as Lucy stared at us with a know it all smile, munching on an apple. I quickly got up, glaring at Ed who smirked playfully and pretended to get engrossed in my thoughts looking around blindly for a distraction.
'Oh look, a bunny,' I blindly pointed to a cloud and successfully diverting their attention, ran for it to save myself the embarrassment. What was I thinking? I suddenly skidded to a stop as I saw a piece of metal in the sand, almost buried in the hedges and wild thorns around it. Curious, I ran my hands through the hedge, wincing as it cut into my finger, making it bleed and pulled the piece out. It wasn't metal, it was a mirror, dirtied with age but the patterns around the edge were something I recognized.
My old mirror.
What was my old mirror doing in the middle of ruins? Where was Cair Paravel? Unless…
'Hey that's mine! From my chess set!' I heard Ed say in the clearing a little behind where I was and I turned to see him holding a small golden centaur. Peter looked at him disbelievingly.
'Which chess set?'
'I didn't exactly have a solid gold chess set in Finchley, now did I?' One point to my boyfriend. And one addition to my list of suspicions that…
Holy Cow! I'm in Cair Paravel's ruins!
Lucy muttered something and ran towards me yelling for the others to follow her.
'Lu!' Ed yelled after her as she took me by the hand and jerked me in a small circle on the ground as the repeated with the others, slamming Ed into me.
'Don't you see?'
'What?' Peter was obviously pissed.
(I don't remember the first part of this movie dialogue. Forgive me)
'Imagine thrones! And columns there!' Lucy put a hand on my shoulder and pointed towards what looked like a jungle but I had placed it. Peter was the first to voice his thoughts.
'Cair Paravel,'
You know what sucks more than losing your fiancé in one second? Having no home. I lingered close to Ed, his warm hand in my ice cold one, and I couldn't help but notice how big his hand was in mine. He was exactly like I had met him so distantly. Narnia works in strange ways; when I met him, he was a year older than me but now, we were exactly the same age; sixteen.
And then suddenly, his hand tore away from mine as he bent over a large rock muttering something that sounded like 'catapults,'
'What?' Peter asked him as the girls looked around.
'This didn't just happen you know. Cair Paravel was attacked,' he looked at me and I saw worry flash through his eyes. But it was so brief; I could've just imagined it.
I looked at Peter who was standing in front of a door covered in hedges and Ed went to help him, his hand in mine, pulling me with him. Briefly tearing his hand from mine, Ed helped him push the door only to reveal another door that Peter easily broke down, and put his hand back in mine. All four of us looked as Peter tore the edge of his shirt, wrapping it around some random sticks he had picked up and looked at Ed expectantly.
'I suppose, you don't have any matches do you?' I looked at Ed as he shook his head, rummaging through his bag.
'No, but would this help?' he pulled out his torch and I laughed a little as Peter looked at him with a grin of disbelief.
'You could've mentioned that a bit sooner,'
I sat outside of the door that had our trunks, dressed and all in a long red Narnian dress that fit me; trust me, there were only few of those at the bottom. The trunk had most of my later year dresses that were longer and baggier.
Randomly tugging at the lace of my surprisingly matching converse I had been wearing, I looked up as Ed came out in Narnian clothes, his old and trusty sword hanging around his waist. I gave him a smile, getting up to stand next to him as he walked forward, giving me a grin.
'Good to be back, huh?' he asked me, standing in front of me.
'If you don't count that we don't have a place to stay, yeah, ecstatic,' I replied dryly, as he chuckled, laying his forehead against mine.
'Your hair is longer,' he murmured slowly, twirling a lock of my hair gently around his finger. Using that hand, he pulled me towards him and pressed his lips against mine softly, before pulling away with a smile, leaving me breathless.
'I…,'
'Dy,' he suddenly cut across me urgently. I could almost feel his tension.
'What is it?' I asked nervously looking around.
'We're still engaged right?'
I blinked at him and then suddenly laughed out loud smacking his arm.
We randomly walked around the beach, catching up with what the other was doing during the year we were…apart. Yeah, I got down the cliff harmlessly for both him and me. And then suddenly I saw a girl on the beach, in L.A. clothes. Small shiny shorts and a small sleeveless tank top with matching high heels. Ed was as intrigued as I was as we made our way towards her.
'Um…hello, who are…,' my voice trailed off as the girl turned with a frantic expression on her face. Her facial expressions turned to a dirty glare as she took me in and the cuts in my arms seemed to be stinging more under my sleeve.
Teria Canabe.
So, whadaya think of the cliffy? I think this line is getting a bit old, so I'll just ask you to review and shout out to everyone who showed any kind of feedback to chapter 1, even in their heads. I love you guys!
