Well guys, I know this is going to come as a disappointment to a lot of you, but I unfortunately have to put 'All Things for a Reason' on the self for right now. The story has literally run dead for me. No matter what I do, I can't seem to find inspiration for it. And when I attempt to write it, it feels too forced. So I'm putting that story on hold for now and I'm going to start a new story. It is a Narnia/Harry Potter crossover. The main pairing will be Caspian/Hermione but will also feature some other pairings. It will be called, 'The Three Sons of Merlin and the Three Daughters of Morgana'. I'm going to give you all a little preview of the first chapter below. Hopefully it will give me some inspiration to write more for 'All Things'.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, I give you the preview of the first chapter of 'The Three Sons of Merlin and the Three Daughters of Morgana':
Chapter One: The Prophecy
Pacing back and forth, Caspian sighed in frustration. Watching him from the head of the table, Peter smiled behind his hand and struggled to repress the chuckle that was threatening to come out. He failed miserably and burst out with laughter.
Stopping dead in his tracks, Caspian turned towards Peter and narrowed his eyes. "You think this is all funny? You think that the fact that Jadis and Miraz being back and gaining strength is funny," he asked coldly, barely able to contain his rage. The smile on Peter's face was wiped away instantly. He shot Caspian a 'you-know-better' type of look.
"Of course I don't think that's funny. There is absolutely nothing funny about those two." After glaring at Caspian for another moment, Peter smiled slightly and said, "What is funny is how you are fretting over Aslan coming to the castle."
Sighing, Caspian went to his seat next to his best friend and former lover, Queen Susan the gentle. Being the perceptive person that she was, she placed a gentle and comforting hand on his shoulder. When he didn't look at her right away, she placed her hand on his cheek and turned his face so he was looking at her. Looking into Caspian's eyes, Susan could see the fear and worry in them. She smiled comfortingly and said, "Don't be so nervous Caspian. Everything is going to be fine."
Smiling at Susan and patting her hand, Caspian said, "I know. I'm so much worried about Aslan coming. I'm just really weary about Jadis and Miraz joining forces. They've already attained so much power and so many followers." Engulfing Caspian in what looked like a much needed hug, Susan kissed him on his temple and said, "Like I said dear, everything is going to be fine."
"Your optimism is very much appreciated, Queen Susan. And you are right to worry, King Caspian. The times ahead are going to be difficult."
Turning towards the door, the two Pevensies and Caspian all saw a great lion making his way towards the head of the table. Upon reaching it, he turned to see the three monarchs about to stand and bow to him. He waved them down with a paw and then noticed that Trumpkin was in the room.
"Trumpkin, I need you to go fetch Queen Lucy and King Edmund and bring them here immediately." Looking back towards Susan, Caspian, and Peter, Aslan sighed and said, "We have much to discuss tonight."
Well ladies and gentlemen, there you have it; the preview to my new story. Expect to see the full chapter up in the next few weeks. Please don't send me too much hate mail for shelving 'All Things'. I hope you all like the preview and will read the story when I publish it!
