I do not own the copyrights to the Hobbit; book or movie. Nor do I own any to the Chronicles of Narnia

A/N= 1) I got this idea off a You Tube video someone made. I figured I couldn't find a sequel to their video, so I am writing one here. 2) I also have messed with time frames and facts for the sake of the storyline, but remember this is FAN-FICTION nothing more.

Thorin's talk with Edmund

Ch. 13

No sound was heard under the cover of the early dusk except Thorin's voice. "So, you see your sister Lucy is back in my world.:

"And what of Diane? We only found her coat." Lucy's sibling was shocked beyond measure when told of her and King Thranduil. "Wow, she never said a word to any of us. We just thought she had no interest in marriage."

"Ya, well, don't expect her to come back anytime soon. Someone else has her attention now." Thorin chuckled and then sobered up when asked about Jean.

"Raygars got to her, but that was caused by her own arrogance, stupidity and downright greed." Even though Edmund had to have that bit explained just as Diane had to with Lucy, he wasn't surprised and asked about the body.

"Surely, if she was killed in your world her body would have remained there." Thorin shrugged his shoulders to Edmund's statement and said he had no idea on that one.

"Maybe, a high elf could explain it to you, or even Gandalf, but not me." The talk then turned to Lucy and Thorin told him everything and about his private concerns which had driven him to Edmund in the first place; well that Gandalf had insisted was necessary. Those words could only be heard by Edmund's ear for the night sounds took over anyone else's hearing. The answers Lucy's sibling gave told Thorin which path he needed to take in regards to the matter.

"This is where we part my friend. I don't think your other siblings could handle you missing right now." Thorin stuck out his hand.

"What about Lucy?" The man hadn't told him what his final decision was even though he'd said everything else.

"With all due respect, that is none of your business right now." Thorin assured Edmund either Lucy would show back up, or a way would be found to let her brother know she was okay. With that he was gone.

The house was quiet when Edmund walked in and he thought all must have gone to sleep. Nonetheless the study door opening and Susan walking out let him know that was not the case. "Where have you been? You've had us all worried sick." His sister did not beat around the bush with her words ,or tone.

"Thinking and now I'm going to bed." His feet began to climb the stairs only to be stopped by Peter joining his sister in the front hall.

"Edmund, I'm sorry for snapping at you. Susan and I have been talking." Rubbing the back of his neck Peter sighed, "Look, just because we think it's stress causing your way of thinking doesn't mean we don't care."

"I know. I do appreciate that." Edmund was too tired and worn out to argue. "Like I told Susan I'm going to bed." In the privacy of his own room the younger brother let his mind roll back to the night Thorin had visited his sister. More was coming to his mind now that he'd talked to the man himself.

"Come with me, Lucy…" Thorin tucked her hair behind her ear as they'd stood close enough to the window for Edmund to hear, "…my world needs you. Narnia has another queen. Come be my bride and rule with me under the mountain." Other words had been spoken in a language he did not recognize. Why he forgotten that bit so quickly; especially when the two had disappeared so fast and Lucy had stayed gone for so long, was beyond his comprehension.

"I love him, always have always will." Lucy's voice had been soft as she'd stood underneath a tree in the front yard. The sun weaved its rays through her hair as her eyes softened towards her brother. "If only you could have met him. Seen his strength in battle against his enemies."

"Oh, Lucy, I don't know what Thorin's going to do , but if he keeps you there I hope he's worth it." Edmund finally fell asleep to the sound of strange music no one else could hear.
