"So," Peter said pacing his room, "what you're telling me is Cassie is from the future? That can't be possible."

"Well, yes. That is what i'm telling you," Kaylee said after just informing him of what their new guest had just told her. Susan had just taken her to her new room in the castle she would be staying at. "And, I've been thinking about how that's possible. I remember Aslan saying that time works differently in Narnia then it does in our other world. Even if we've only been here four years it may have been eighty years back home."

Peter pondered this for a few minutes then said, "This just might be possible."

"Yeah, it might." Kaylee yawned as she sat down and her eyes drooped.

"Sweety, go to bed. You're exhasted," Peter insisted

"What about you?" She yawned again.

"I have to take care of a few more things. I'll be in shortly," he said getting ready to walk out of the room.

"You're going to kill yourself one day," she warned.

"How's that?"

"By not getting enough sleep." She came up and kissed him lightly. "Please don't stay up too late, okay?"

"I won't. Go to bed." He gave her a small smile and nodded towards the bed. She smiled back and got under ther covers. Peter douced the lamps and fire place before he walked out and whispered, "I love you."

Susan and Cassie were wandering slowly towards her new room. They were rounding a corner when someone slammed into Cassie sending her to the ground. "Edmund!" Susan yelled upon seeing her younder brother stumble.

"Sorry. I'm so sorry. Here let me help you up," he stuttered holding out his hand for Cassie to grab.

She shook her hair out of her face and saw Edmund looking down at her with concern. "No, it's okay. It was an accident," she managed to say. When he grabbed her hand a shiver went up her spine.

"You're okay then?" he asked pulling her to her feet.

"Yeah," she forced herself to say. What's wrong with me? Why can't I talk to him? she thought.

"Good. Well, then I'll just…go," he said turning around. As he turned facing the other direction his eyes widened. It's never that hard to talk to anyone. he though. I wonder if she saw me blush.

"Edmund!" Susan said. "Peter needs your help."

"Oh, Sue. Peter always needs my help," he said regaining his composer. "He just never wants to admit it. What is it he needs help with?"

"I'm not sure so why don't you go and ask him," she said as she turned to walk away.

"I would if I knew where he was!" Edmund said sarcastically.

"I think he and Kaylee are in their room."

"Cool. Sorry again for knocking you down… Sorry, I didn't catch your name."

"C-Cassie. I'm Cassie. And that's okay. Really."

"Good. See you around. And, Sue, youshould tell Lucy about this in the morning before she finds out herself. If you don't… I don't really want to know what she'll do." And he walked away.

"Is he always like that?"

"Unfortunatly, yes. But you get used to it."

"I think its kinda…" Susan gave her a weird look. "…weird. Pssh. Yeah. So let's go." She said covering up. Susan somehow didn't believe that's how she really felt but didn't push the young girl.

As they arrived, Susan said, "Well, here we are." She pointed to the door to her right. "Now, if you have any trouble finding something in the middle of the night, your best bets are probably Lucy, who is just down the hall and to the right and Edmund, who's just three doors down." She pointed in the general direction of each room. "If, you're in dire need, Peter and Kaylee's room is the next closest at just across the courtyard," she said as she pointed across the way. Cassie hadn't noticed before, but the wall facing her room was made entirly of glass and you could see directly across from where they were satnding. On the ground floor there was a beautiful open sitting area. "But, it's confusing trying to get there because you can't just go across. You have to go down one flight of stairs, down a hall, turn right, turn left, go up a flight of stairs and go down another hallway." She rattled this off very fast and Cassie could hardly keep up. "It's just a hastle getting there."

Cassie chuckled. "Hastle in the castle."

Susan giggled and agreed. "Anyway, my room is across the castle next to the throne and ballroom. Um, other places you might want to know are the library, which is just down the corridor, the kitchen is just below us and the dining room is right next to that. Also, another thing you might want to know is some door ways and staircases lead to no where just to confuse intruders if they get in. And some doors are locked and they're locked for a reason so don't go exploring them. They may have a prisoner or something that may cause you bodily harm. It's confusing and you may get lost a few times but you'll get the hang of it. Got all of that?"

"Lucy's room is down the hall and to the right. Edmund's is down there. Peter and Kaylee's is across the courtyard which is hard to get to. Yours is across the castle next to the ball and throne room. Kitchen and dining room are below us. Library is down there. Don't open locked doors. I may get lost but I'll get the hang of it. Got it."

"Good. That means I don't have to repeat myself. Good night."

"Night. And thanks." Susan smiled at the girl and walked away leaving her to her thoughts.

"Hey, Pete," Edmund said from behind the door.

Peter gave a small jump as he said, "Please don't do that. You almost gave me a heart attack."

"Kind of what I was counting on. Anyway, I met Susan in the hall a couple of minutes ago and she told me you needed me to do something."

"Actually yes. I need you to do some research and see if you can find a prophecy to do with a Daughter of Eve."

"Ah, Pete. You know research is my specialty. I'll have information for you by the time the week's out."

"Good. And, thanks Ed."

"Sure thing. What are you still doing up?" he asked.

Peter gave an involentary groan and said, "I have a meeting with the Council in ten minutes."

Edmund winced. "Tonight? She hasn't been here two hours! "

"Well, what else was I supposed to tell them?"

"Well you could try 'I'm tired and we can do this in the morning.'" Peter raised his eyebrows as Edmund realized what he had just said. "Never mind. You can't do that with them, can you?"

"No. And I mean, I don't have anything against the poor girl. Its just, this is causing so many uneeded problems. And me being the High King, I have to handle them all." He shook his head. "And they are just going to make this headache I'm getting worse. I have to remember to ask JoAnna what I can do for a headache."

"Well, good luck Pete. You're going to need it."

"Thank you Edmund," Peter said sarcastically. Edmund laughed as he walked towards the library.

"King Peter, what is going on?" a faun said.

"We have a right to know!" a centaur shouted.

"Why is she here?" a dwarf demanded.

"Everyone! Everyone, please! Stop shouting! I will explain everything, if you all just calm down!" Peter yelled over the crowd of the Council. As it all settled he stated, "Now, a new Daughter of Eve has dropped into Narnia from my old world. I don't know what she's doing here but I can tell you that we are doing everything we can to figure it out."

"We want answers!" someone in the Council yelled and an uproar followed. Peter rubbed the bridge of his nose, trying to ignore the pain creeping up in his skull. He was sitting at the head of a table filled with all the creatures of Narnia who made up the Royal Council.

"We should talk to her!" a badger suggested. This was followed by scores of 'Yes!' and 'Let us talk to her!'

"No," Peter said firmly. "I will not subject her to an interagation."

"Why?" someone objected.

"For one, you all will crucify her here! And two, all of this will overwhelm her. She comes from a world where that don't have any talking beasts or centaurs or fauns or dwarfs. She would get tounge-tied and not be able to tell you anything. I will see what I can do when she adjusts but until then you are all out of luck." The Council began shouting their objections again and Peter was finished with the lack of cooperation. "You will get your chance to talk to her but until then, you're going to have to deal with my decision." And he walked out of the crouded room as all began yelling again.
