I am so sorry it has taken me so long to post again I have only just recently finished my exams and I do hope you can forgive me. I do hope this is okay, I have been working on it for a while and I am still not 100% happy with it but decided I couldn't make you wait any longer. I would also like to thank everyone who has read/commented/followed/faved. They mean a lot to me as a writer.
I have decided to go with 3rd person now because I do believe it is better for where I am taking this story.


Eustace left school and went home. When he found Lucy wasn't there he knew there was only one place she would be. He left the house once he had gotten changed and headed to the tree. Eustace couldn't understand why there was more than one person by the tree. Suddenly Eustace had the over whelming feeling Lucy had betrayed him, this was their sanctuary.

As Eustace got closer and closer he realised one was a lion... A lion in the middle of the field and wasn't attacking. Could it be, Aslan? 'No of course not,' Eustace thought. Narnia was in the past that life was behind them! He also noticed that one was male. Why on Earth did Lucy have a lion and a man with her?

Eustace couldn't figure out who the male was as he was facing away and was looking the lion. He was now only about 200 miles away from the tree and he could it was definitely a lion. 'A lion?'

"Lu, what's going on?" Eustace asked Lucy coming into the clearing.

"Eustace!" Lucy exclaimed smiling as she turned around to face him. "When did you get out of school?"

"Lord Eustace come and sit with us." Aslan said.

"Lord? Aslan I am but a boy. I am not a lord."

"Actually you are. When you left the Dawn Treader no-one knew what to call you and they wanted you to have a title so they all began to call you Lord of Fire. When I return to Calormen I intend to make the name permanent." Caspian said who was now also facing Eustace.

"Caspian?" Eustace asked he was trying to piece it all together but finding it difficult.

"Eustace, are you alright?" Lucy started standing up and walking over to her cousin.

"Yes Lucy, just trying to work it all out." He replied. "Lucy we really must be getting home. Mother will be wondering where we are."

"Yes very true. I really must be going."

"Caspian you are welcome to come with us. Mother will be delighted to meet you." Eustace said and Lucy nodded.

"Lucy, we didn't come here for no reason." Aslan said looking at Lucy.

"I understand that Aslan, I really do." Lucy sighed. "But at this moment I must get home, you may meet us if you wish or Caspian can tell me on the way."

"I would be happy to tell you." Caspian spoke up. Lucy smiled and Aslan nodded.

"I shall meet you there then."

Lucy noticed Eustace acting strange when they were walking home. She knew it was because they were here."Caspian give us a moment?" Lucy asked and Caspian nodded. She took Eustace to the side to talk to him. "What is wrong Eustace?"

"They're going to take you away aren't they?" Eustace finally voiced is concerns.

"Oh My Lord, whatever happens we'll be okay."

"I'm not a lord." Eustace huffed.

"If you're not a lord then I am not a Queen."

"But you are!"

"There you said it!" Lucy said with a satisfied smile. It was then when he realised what Lucy had done. "We'll be okay Eustace."

He nodded and they went back to Caspian.

"So why are you here, Caspian?" Lucy asked.

"I am here to offer you a choice."

"And what is this choice?" Lucy asked.

Caspian fell silent; he began to think of a way to ask her to come back to Narnia. "Caspian?"

"You are no longer old enough to travel between the worlds but that doesn't mean to say that you cannot travel one last time."

"Would I be able to return once I am there?"

"Sadly, no, I'm afraid you cannot."

"Oh. I'll think about it for the time being and see what Aslan adds."

"That is fair enough." Caspian said.

The rest of the journey home was in silence as Lucy began to think about what she was going to do. Her heart was torn half of her wanted to go back to Narnia but half didn't want to leave her didn't want to leave her family.

When they arrived at their home Eustace's aunt gave Caspian room and Lucy and Eustace gave him some of Edmund's old clothes that were left here when he moved over to America. When the three of them went up stairs they went into Lucy's room where they were met by Aslan.

"Now you know why we are here I will give you until tomorrow to come up with a decision and on the 13th hour you will meet me at the tree with your decision and we will proceed from there. Do you understand Lucy?" Aslan asked.

"Yes Aslan. Caspian, Eustace may I have a word with Aslan?" Lucy asked.

They both nodded and left.

"What is it, dear one?"Aslan asked.

"If you only came here to offer me a choice then why didn't you come alone?" Lucy asked slowly.

"Now that, Dear Lucy, you will have to ask Caspian."

Lucy nodded and hugged Aslan's mane one last time before he disappeared.

She went back out to Caspian and Eustace who were in Eustace's room. "Shall we go and eat?" She asked as she entered the room.

"Yes we better had before Mother complains. Caspian we really had get clothes for you before mother sees what you're wearing." Eustace said.

"What is wrong with what I am wearing their traditional clothes?"

"Yes, for Narnia. We're in England." Lucy said.

Caspian sighed and collected some clothes. He came out in Edmunds old vest and brown trousers. "These look a lot like what I was already wearing."

"Yes, if you take away the jewels from the collar." Lucy sighed trying not to laugh.

"What's so funny?" He asked, he had eye contact with Lucy who then laughed and placed her hand on his arm and sighed. "Oh Caspian, I have missed you."

Then she walked out to meet her aunt and Eustace. Caspian followed. When they got down stairs her aunt was waiting with her uncle. "Hello." Caspian said. "I'm Caspian."

"Hello, Caspian. I'm Alberta. This is Harold."

Caspian smiled and they all sat down to eat. "Oh Lucy Dear, I almost forgot I was meant to give you this when you came home, it's from Susan I believe."

"Yes, it is definitely her hand writing. Thank you."

Later that night: Lucy, Eustace, and Caspian sat in Lucy's room, while she read out the letter.

"Our Dearest Lucy,

I hope you aren't angry at us for not writing in so long, we have been so busy with Mother and Father being away. This is the first chance I have gotten to actually sit down and write to you.

We are all well specially Peter who is now engaged to Alice. Edmund is being Edmund he misses you a lot. Mind you it is nothing compared to how much Mother misses you. I would want nothing more than to have you come and visit but it's not the right time at the moment. At the moment Thomas and I are happy and I really wish Edmund would find at least some friends he hasn't admitted to himself that we live here yet.

Mother said it will not be too long until you come and live with us. Of course it will be once mother and father return which shouldn't be too long now.

Peter says it should be lovely once we are a family again. I do believe he is right. Don't you?

Edmund says it has been too long since we have seen each other it has been about two and a half years since we saw you to pick Edmund up, we really should see each other again soon. Don't you agree?

I wait eagerly for your reply, all our love from America.

Love Susan, Peter, and Edmund."

"Oh well that's nice, it's nice they've finally wrote, how long has it been since you have gotten a letter?"

"About six months. Well its nice news about Peter. And I'm glad Thomas is okay." Lucy said smiling.

"Who is Alice and who is Thomas?" Caspian asked feeling slightly confused.

"Thomas is Susan's husband and Alice is Peter's fiancée however I haven't met either of them."

"Oh, that's wonderful news!" Caspian said with a smile.

"Yes it is." Lucy said with a soft smile. "I had better write back through even though I don't know what to write." Lucy laughed and went into her draw.

"Are you alright Lucy?" Caspian asked.

"Yes I'm fine." She said bringing out a piece of paper and a pen. "Now what am I going to write?"

"Umm, well it is up to you. So what do you feel like writing?" Eustace asked.

"Well I was going to write it from us not just me like Susan did. Is there anything either of you want to say anything?"

"I want to wish them the best although I do think they would be confused to have my name on the letter as I live in Narnia." Caspian said.

"I don't have anything to say apart from to tell Edmund that I miss him." Eustace said.

About half an hour later Lucy had finished her letter and she had put it in an envelope. Then Aunt Alberta came in to tell the three of them that it was time to go to sleep. "Yes Aunt Alberta goodnight." Lucy called and went to say goodnight to the other two.

"Goodnight Caspian, but where's Eustace?" Lucy asked.

"Oh hello Lucy, I do believe he went that way."

"Thank you Caspian, goodnight."

"Oh yes good night Lucy." Caspian said as he watched her leave to find Eustace.

"Eustace there you are!" Lucy exclaimed and went over to him who was in the dining room looking through the book shelve. "I came to say good night."

"Oh sorry good night Lucy, see you in the morning."

"Aunt Alberta could you mail this in the morning?" Lucy asked as she walked up the stairs to her room she vaguely heard a yes and went into her room.

For many hours Lucy thought about what she wanted to do, she knew that in the end she would end up going because her heart belonged there instead of here.

At about one o'clock Lucy still wasn't asleep so decided to go out in the garden. Caspian heard Lucy get up because he couldn't seem to sleep either. This didn't surprise Caspian at all because he often heard Lucy walking around on the Dawn Treader at night.

"Lucy?" He asked when she was walking down the stairs.

"Shh," She hissed and gestured him to follow her.

Once out in the garden Lucy turned to Caspian and smiled. "Why are you in the garden?" Caspian asked as he went to stand by Lucy.

"It's peaceful." She answered. "Why weren't you asleep?"

"Couldn't wasn't tired. Why weren't you?"

"I was thinking."

"What about, Lucy?"

"Caspian, why did you come with Aslan to ask me to return? I'm sure he could have done it by himself?"

"Isn't that obvious Lucy?" Caspian asked looking into her eyes.
