Hey Guys, sorry it took so long to update! i got lost in thought- it was seriously unfamiliar territory...
so, here's chapter 3! Thanks for the reviews, guys! I'm soo sorry the chapters are so short, but i have to share the computer and i have a time limit, so homework gets the priority! I'll be getting my own computer soon, so i'll be able to type more, and the chapters will be updated much sooner.
I'll have the next chapter done in the next few days!
"Did you ever make It to the end of the world?" Lucy shook her head sadly, "No, we could see the end but our rowboat sprung a leak, so we had to turn back. Its like a huge, continuous wave of water and the sea around it is freshwater, full of lilies. The sun is sooo big and close…" Lucy faded off into her own world whilst Edmund and Caspian processed the information; Ramandu's island was not too far away!
" How far away is Ramandu's island?" he asked no one in particular. "Past Goldwater Island and Dragon Island. In no wind it'll take 2-3 weeks, 3 ½ if you stop at Coriakins Island." Said Edmund, "Where'd that come from?" he asked himself, looking utterly shocked.
Caspian took a deep breath and walked out onto the balcony, but almost as soon as the doors shut, he frantically rushed back in. "Quick, we need to hurry! Lucy, stay down here till the storm passes! Edmund! Come up to the deck and help me to assist the crew to prepare for for the storm!" At this, he pointed out of the door. Lucy gasped and Edmunds eyes widened. Pitch-black storm clouds covered the sky, leaving no trace of light. They all shrunk back inside and bolted the door. Edmund and Caspian bolted onto the deck with one last glance at the gentle queen. But neither of them noticed the frown on her face…
3 days after that, the storm was still raging. "Lu, we've nearly no mast! You'll need to come and help us!" cried a wild looking Edmund, "Su'll be fine!" He added when he noticed the worried glance cast in Susan's direction. They dashed out of the room side-by-side.
Lucy's POV
Up on deck it was hectic. "ED!" I heard a voice scream, watching as my older brother was slammed into a wall by a huge wave. He groaned before painstakingly standing up. I could see the soreness in his eyes and face. He caught onto 2 ropes and I saw one flying at me. I caught it and pulled.
¾ of an hour later, the mast had been anchored down and everyone had settled down for some much deserved rest… except for Caspian, Ed and I. I had seen Cas trudge down to see Susan. I sighed and felt my lips creeping into a smile, but I was stunned out of my reverie by Caspians yell of "ED! LUCY!"
Caspian's POV
I was so relieved that we could finally get some rest, but before I went to my hammock, I wanted to see Susan again. I opened the doorand the first thing I noticed was the small frown on her gentle lips turn into a sweet smile, and I saw her mouth some words, and I felt the ship stop tossing, heard the wind stop howling. I immediately turned around and called Edmund and Lucy. I waited until they breathlessly arrived seconds later. " What is it, Cas?" she puffed to me and i gestured towards Susan. "She smiled when I came in and then she muttered some words and then the weather turned fine! She must be controlling the weather in her sleep!"
No-One's POV
A look of recognition dawned on Edmunds face. "She used to do that in the golden age! when she had bad dreams, the weather would turn bad, so she used to clear her mind so that the weather was nice... We just need to make sure that she's happy!"
They succeeded for 2 weeks, until they landed at Coriakins Island.
WoW, you read all the way! You're the bestest! Don't forget to review!
