Cair Paravel's Harbor

The winds began to take form into horrendous gusts sweeping up towards the Castle blowing out every candle as it reaches the corridors throughout every inch of the palace.

The King's and Queen orders everyone to move underground the castle and to light up torches once they are there so that they can see. Edmund hurried to get everybody out of their common areas to tell them all where to go and he stops to look out of an oval window at a figure coming from the dark distance on heavy waves of the sea.

"Peter!" Edmund calls ahead and Peter whips his head around almost glaring at his brother. "There's a ship coming up to port."

Peter darts off and Edmund follows him from behind as Susan continues to guide everyone to safety. Peter and Edmund came outside throwing their arms up to guard their faces from the gusty winds to look around, everything was dark around them, it took Peter a few moments to realize which way the sea was. "Where'd you see the ship Edmund?"

Edmund points to where the ship was now about to reach their harbor. "There it is right over there!"

They make their way to the docks to wait for the crew to throw their lines out to them to make port. Instead the ship glides upon the water in same speed without slowing down towards Peter and Edmund.

Peter pushes his brother for them to both get of the dock. They hurriedly run towards land as the ship began to crash through the dock and crashed again on sharp rocks below the sea and it came to an automatic stop.

Edmund rushes out to the ship and Peter follows getting over the shock of what almost happened.

"Hello! Is anyone alright in here?" Edmund searches the ship pushing some of the scattered waste over.

"Help!"

Edmund heard a very faint plea from a man below the ship. "Peter, come on." They make their way down below the ship. "We're coming. Hold on sir."

The man below deck kept pleaing to let his rescuers know where he was at and in no time at all Edmund and Peter found the man getting drenched wet from a hole in the ship it got from impact. A wooden board caught his leg and the kings could tell that he had been struggling to get it off.

Peter and Edmund without asking any questions at first went on both sides of the long narrow board and pushes it off of the man. "Thank you," The man sighs in relief, as Peter and Edmund took different sides of his arms and guides the man out of the sinking room and into one that was a bit cozy and dry where they laid him gently in an arm chair.

Peter brings up a chair in front of the man to sit in with wanting to ask him a few questions.

"How long did you travel from sir?" Peter asks.

"The Lone Islands your majesty," The man tries to bow but Edmund held him back from doing so in order for him not to faint.

"Where are the rest of crew or did you travel alone?" Peter asks another question.

"The crew," The man begins in a terrified expression and shivers. "The crew is all gone."

"What do you mean?" Edmund asked this time.

"They gone through the darkness, the darkness took them all."


Western Mountains

"Why does the Nothing do this and what's behind it all?" Lucy slightly squirms in discomfort as her eyes squints with tears already in the works forming below her eyelids.

Atreyu looks at Lucy even more sympathetically. "It's the work of mankind's doing when they stop believing in something. I'm here to find out what that is."

"I don't know what you're talking about Atreyu." Lucy looks at him confused and concerned.

"When humans stop believing in something it causes an army of darkness that grows over time and it becomes the Nothing."

"Believing as in believing you can get into other worlds?" Lucy asked.

"More like their imaginations in your world." Atreyu replies.

Lucy shakes her head confused. "I still don't get it. The kingdom of Narnia, especially us humans have plenty of imagination."

Atreyu looks at Lucy with lengthened eyes. "You mean you're human?"

"Well of course I am. I come from a much different world then this with other humans." Lucy replied looking at Atreyu with a suspicious look.

Atreyu winces, it wouldn't be possible for the Nothing to go after real human beings. Atreyu didn't say anything else about that at that moment. It was perfectly clear Lucy thought she came from the reality of the real world, he's come across characters like that in Fantasia before. He didn't want to frighten Lucy as she was already enough.

"I'd like for us to start the journey back to your home Queen Lucy," Atreyu grins at her.

Lucy nods in agreement packing all of her things again and stomping out the fire she created earlier. Showing Atreyu the way they walk side by side out of the mountains.
