I am so sorry for the wait. School got to me again then I had some major family issues. Well here is chapter 6 it is short but it's something. Enjoy!

I just couldn't bear to see him like this anymore. Lucy and Susan too, they are so worried about Ed. I can see it in their eyes. Mother has also been sending me letters asking how everyone is. I want to tell her the truth, but I just can't bring myself too. I would hate to see her hurting too.

Edmund slowly begun to regain his strength as the week went on. I could tell that he was restless and wanted to get out of bed, but I stood my ground. I just could not take any more chances. No matter how many puppy dog faces he made.

By Monday, Edmund was going to class. He looked more vibrant and lively. Though he was still pretty sore he toughed it out, remembering he has had worse. I would give him piggyback rides to all of his classes, not caring that I would be late to my own. My main priority is Edmund everything else comes after him no matter what. I was not going to lose him again.

"Peter Pevensie, please report to the main office." An office secretary arrived in the classroom, announcing my name.

Everyone stared at me as I got up from my seat. The walk from my classroom with the secretary to the main office felt miles long. I guessed that they wanted to talk to me about Edmund's behavior. Ever since we got back from Narnia he has gotten into more fights than before.

"Hello Mr. Johnston," I greeted the man sitting at the desk.

"Ah Peter please sit down. There are some things we need to discuss," he acknowledged me cheerfully.

I obeyed and sat down in the big brown leather chair, and then I asked. "Is there a problem, sir?"

"Well yes all of your teachers say that you are late every day and your grades are slipping. This is not like you Peter you used to be a model student. Is there anything wrong?" he questioned. "Not that I am aware of, sir." That was a complete lie.

"You seem to spend a lot of time with your brother." Mr. Johnston stated.

"Well yes is that a problem, sir?" I asked.

"Oh no I just find it strange. Most brothers aren't constantly together like you two are."

"I guess we aren't most brothers. My siblings and I have gone through some tough times that have brought us closer together," I explained.

He nodded, "Well war does force children to grow up quickly."

"That's not the only thing," I whispered under my breath.

"Did you say something?" he asked.

"No, sir I did not." I tried to cover up my comment to myself.

"Hm, well that is all you may return to class. And Peter, don't forget to keep up on your studies."

I nodded and quickly walked out of the room. The rest of my day was filled without anymore problems.

"Peter," a voice whispered.

"What is the matter?" I groaned. I do not enjoy being woken up at this hour.

"It's Edmund! He is screaming only this time he is not asleep his eyes are wide open," explained the voice to me franticly.

This alarmed me very much so. I jumped out of bed, threw on my robe and hurried through the halls to Edmund's room. As I went through the hallway I could no longer hear the screams of my brother. For most people they would have thought that to be good, but I rather he the screams then silence because I least I knew he was alive. I ran over to him.

"Ed, what is it?"I asked worriedly, scooping him up into my arms rocking him back and forth as if he was a baby.

"You di….died," he half squealed. His voice was still very shaky from the nightmare.

"It was so real," He whispered burying his face into the nook of my neck.

He began to softly sob. "Please don't let her get me Peter."

I tightened my grip on him. "I won't Eddy. I promise," I assured.

When he finally calmed down I realized his body was very warm for being in a cool room. I place a hand on his forehead. I noticed he had a fever. "Ed are you feeling well? I think you have a minor fever "I am feeling a little cold," Edmund replied weakly. Ed hated the cold more than anything. It reminded him to much of the past.

I laid him down on his bed and bundled him up. "You warm enough?" I asked.

He nodded and curled up under the blankets. "Will you stay with me tonight, Peter?" He pleaded giving me a begging look.

"I guess so, scoot over." I gently crawled over him and lay up against the wall. He lay next to me looking with sleepy eyes. His breathing slowed down. I whispered into his ear, "Sweet dreams, Ed."

The next morning Edmund looked drastically worse than he did the night before.

He was flushed and had a fever. "Edmund, how are you feeling this morning?"

"I feel horrible," he groaned. He looked horrible too.

"You don't think it's the dark magic doing this to me do you, Peter?" he asked nervously.

"No I don't, Ed." That was I lie. I knew it had everything to do with the magic that was slowly killing my baby brother.

"I got to go to class now. I will check up on you before lunch." I run my hand through his hair before I moved to get up. "Please try to get better soon, Ed."

He gave me a slight smile. "I'm trying Peter I really am."

I found it hard to pay attention in class. All I could think about was Edmund and what Aslan said to me a few nights ago. The last thing I wanted to think about was algebra.

I decided to write a letter to the girls while it was all still on my mind.

My Gentle and Valiant Queens,

I regret to inform you that our dear brother Edmund is taking a turn for the worse. His nightmares are more frightful. This morning he woke up with a fever.

I am starting to get very worried. What if the dark magic is beginning to affect him even more?

I send you and Lucy all my love.

Love, your High King

After class was over I sighed in relief that there was only one more class till lunch. I couldn't make it that long right?

Before lunch I went to go check up on Edmund and walked into the room and found my brother sleeping. I did not wake him. He needed the sleep after the rough night he had.

Out of nowhere I feel dizzy and nauseated. Thinking that it was caused by lack of sleep I sat down on the bed next to Edmund and rested my shoulder against the wall.

I closed my eyes and slipped into what I thought was going to be a quick nap.

When I woke up I knew I was no longer in England.

I apologize once again for the long wait. Next chapter they will be in Narnia. I hope I can get it up faster than this one.
