Hi everyone! I'm going to London for a week in 5 days so here is another update before I leave.

Recap:

Lucy rode as fast as possible. She was practically flying through the forest. Even though the forest was dark now since the sun had set, she hurried on.

"PETER, EDMUND, SUSAN!" The three pevensies were given a rude wakeup call when Lucy came home at 4 o'clock in the morning.

"What Lucy? We were all asleep" Peter really was irritated with his younger sister.

"But Peter, you said I should tell you if I found another magical world."

Back to the story

The three older Pevensies just stood there dumbstruck. The same thought was running through all their brains: Why did Lucy always find the magical worlds?

Edward decided to voice their thought. "Why is it always you Lucy? How come you always find the magic?"

Lucy smiled. "Sorry, a magician never tells their secrets. By the way, remember the magic we felt in London? Yeah that's part of the magical world! Now I'm beat because I've been up since yesterday morning. Night!"

Lucy quickly walked upstairs leaving her sublings dumstruck in the entrance. When shec reached the door to the room she had claimed, she quickly entered and locked the door, not a minute to soon. As she walked across her room, she heard the feet rushing to her room on the top floor.

She ignored the calls from outside her door, and ignored the calls from Edmund to let them in.

Lucy quickly undressed. She put her dress into the hamper, and put on her PJ's. Falling into her bed, the youngest Pevensie was asleep before she had fully landed on the bed.

Lucy dreamt of the new magical world she had discovered. In her dream she met the centaurs, and explored the castle with Sev, as she had taken to calling him.

Lucy swam in the lake, and practiced with her dagger on the wide lawn.

When Lucy woke up, she felt refreshed. The girl took a minute to take in her room, and how it had changed over the years.

Her room had started out done in pinks and purples. Three walls being a light lavender with the wall across the door painted a rich purple. She had a canopy bed in the middle of the wall, with rich pink hangings, and rose bedding. Lucy had picked out a fluffy crème carpet. She had a small desk underneath one of the windows, painted to match her bedspread. Her vanity was the same tone. Her closet was purple and pink polka dotted. She had loved it then

As Lucy grew up, she had started to like her room less and less. Although she liked the colors, it was a bit to much, especially all the ruffles she had around the room. So when the colors got too much, she begged Peter to let her redecorate it. Peter didn't want to say yes, saying they had to save their money since they didn't have too much, but when Lucy had a nightmare about her room, Peter allowed the renovations.

So Lucy had grabbed Susan, and they rode their rarely used bikes to the train station. Once they had taken the train to London, they went around the city picking everything out of Lucy's new room. While there they had felt the magic for a second when they took a short cut through Charing Cross Road.

Lucy had decided to design her room more neutral and more like her room in Narnia. She kept the crème carpet, only getting some cleaner to get out the various stains which had accumulated over the years. She changed her bedding to a light blue, with flowers stitched into it with a navy blue thread. Her hangings were replaced with a sheer blue fabric she forgot the name of. They allowed her to see the silhouettes of the people in her room. That too had some stitching in the corners. Her walls were a painted with a color which barely counted as blue it was such a light shade. She kept her desk, but painted it white, as well as her bed frame, her vanity and any other wood in the room, such as her door, closet, window frames and mirror.

Lucy also painted a few pictures of scenes from Narnia. She had painted a portrait of the beavers and Mr. Tumnus under an apple tree. There was a painting showing Cair Paravel from the ocean, as it stood strong, and you could see the beach, and some mermaids swimming in theblue water.

Once she was done, she felt that her room was as it should be. She still loved it to this day, though she painted new images from time to time. She had added a huge painting of Aslan, and one of Lantern Waste. There was also one of herself and her siblings dressed the way they were the day they left Narnia. You could see Peter's and Edmund's swords gleam in the sun, and Susan't horn was visible from her belt. She held her bow in one of her hands, the other on her sister's shoulder. Lucy was standing there, laughing her hand instinctively close to her belt, the bottle of the flower juice in its pouch, and the dagger in its hilt. When she had that one done, her siblings were in tears.

Pulling out of her thoughts, Lucy walked over to her closet and started to look through her clothes. She picked a pair of loose cotton pants in a tan color, together with a ruby blouse. She fished through her shoes, picking a pair of ruby flats, adorned with a few red and golden pearls.

Opening her door, Lucy stifled a laugh. Her siblings had decided to camp-out outside of her room, though they had fallen asleep sometime during the night. Not wanting to wake them, Lucy quietly wormed her way through her siblings, making an effort not to wake any of them.

Once past, she quietly walked downstairs, greeting Shelly, Ms. Macready's great-niece, and making her way to the kitchen. She started to get out some bacon, and eggs, as well as toast. Lucy Pevensie started to prepare breakfast for everyone.

Apparently the smell of bacon and eggs was enough to wake her siblings, because the remaining Pevensies were soon running through the house, following their noses to the source of the delicious smell.

Seeing their sister making breakfast, everyone pitched in. Susan started to set the table, and Edmund put the toast into the toaster, while Peter started heating water for the tea.

Soon everything was done, and the four siblings sat down at the table, enjoying their breakfast.

"So Lucy, you never told us where you found the new magical world." Edmund asked, with his mouth full of bacon.

"Mind your manners, Ed! I found a magical area not too far from here, only a few hours away by horse. The magical world here, is actually hidden beneath the non-magical world . . . " And so, Lucy told her siblings all about the magical world, the bullies she had met, and her new found friend.

"And the strangest thing happened at the end of the war." Lucy said, mostly finished now with her story, the only thing left to be told being the centaurs and their mysterious appearance.

"Well what happened at the end of the war?" Susan asked. She was fascinated by the way the magical world here had hidden.

"Okay, so around the end of the war, centaurs suddenly appear in the forest at the castle I told you about. There used to be centaurs all over the world, but they disappeared centuries ago, the only ones left are the ones there. And the game keeper there can't find where they stay, at all."

The rest of the Pevensies sat there dumbstruck. They couldn't believe their luck in finding the only Narnian creatures in the world. In fact, it seemed a bit too lucky.

"Maybe the centaurs followed us here?" Edmund asked.

"That is plausible, but they could have been sent here by Aslan as well." Susan countered.

Peter nodded thoughtfully. He agreed with both. But if it was true that Aslan had sent them here, then there was probably something that they had to accomplish here. He voiced his thoughts to the others. They seemed to agree with him.

"That could be true. I hope we finish the task we're supposed to fulfill soon, because I want to return to Narnia."

No one could think of anymore to say, so they just nodded in agreement, and finished their breakfast. As soon as Edmund was done with his third helping of eggs, Lucy stood up.

"Are you ready?" She asked her siblings.

"For what? Lucy?" Susan asked her sister, who had started to walk outside.

"To explore the magical world of course." Lucy yelled back, already starting saddling up Selene.

As soon as she was finished she sat on a pile of hay, waiting for her siblings to finish. Peter, Edmund and Susan had followed as soon as she was done replying to Susan's question.

Soon all of the Pevensies were ready, and Lucy started to lead them into the forest, not going to fast, since her siblings didn't know the way. The four Narnian royals made their way through the forest, admiring the scenery. Even Lucy who had come through here just yesterday was enjoying the nature around her.

Shortly after their stomachs told them it was lunch time, the siblings sat down in a meadow they had found. There was a stream running through it so their horses could drink. Susan had thought to bring food along. They had egg-salad sandwiches, lemonade, and some chocolate chip cookies.

Once done, Lucy kept leading them toward the old castle she had found. They didn't make it before sunset, so they camped out at the same spot Lucy did before.

As soon as the sun had risen, everyone was up, and ready to go.

After another few hours, the four travellers had finally reached the edge. They carefully walked to the trees, taking a moment to observe everything.

Lucy was once again baffled that there was a magical community right under their noses. She also couldn't wait to meet the centaurs here.

Edmund was thinking critically. Of course he loved the castle; the architecture was mind blowing, even from such a distance. But he was thinking about the war that was going on, the bigotry and discrimintation that had started the war. He was also wondering if they were going to be accepted into this community. He also hoped that the centaurs remembered Narnia.

Susan was excited at the prospect of learning more about the magical world, and its culture. She was also wondering if she would be able to have mock competitions with the centaurs once again.

Peter was baffled. He was also hopeful that he could get a sword, and brush up again. It had been far too long since his last practice.

The four siblings started walking at the edge of the forest, quietly chatting in Old Narnian, slowly making their way towards the lake. They talked about the new magical world, what might be happening in the old one, and a million other things. When they had rounded the lake twice, Lucy saw Sev running towards them. She immediately ran towards him and gathered him in a hug.

"Hey Sev." Lucy greeted him. "C'mon I want to introduce you to my siblings." Lucy started to pull her friend toward her family.

"This is Peter" Lucy said, pointing at her older brother, whose golden blond hair was shining in the sun, "Susan" she said, nodding towards her older sister, who had her ebony hair in a French braid, "and Edmund" Lucy finished with the introduction by indicating her brother which was closest in age, Edmund.

"Nice to meet you" Severus said, and inclined his head to each one,as they were introduced.

Once the ice was broken, conversation turned back into a steady flow, though this time in Enlgish instead of Old Narnian.

Peace was not to last however. Barely half an hour later, the five friends were interrupted.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't the same person who interrupted our fun two days ago." Sirius Black said with a pronounced malicious tone.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't the person who bullied Sev, and my sister" Peter responded, a certain, dangerous edge in his voice.

The marauders came to a stop no five feet away from Peter. Peter had already fixed them with the coldest glare they had seen in their lives. They were impulsive though, so it didn't come to mind that the marauders should back down.

"Who are you anyway? What gives you the right to enter Hogwarts grounds without permission?

"That's what I would like to know." Somehow the Marauders had distracted the Pevensies so that they didn't notice the headmaster calmly walking towards them. When Dumbledore spoke all four siblings gave a little jump.

Edmund was the first to recover. "Oreius would have our heads if he knew someone sneaked up on us" , he muttered to his siblings in Old Narnian.

"Well I'm Lucy, this is Susan, Edmund and Peter. We live on the other edge of the forest over there", Lucy said. She sounded sure, and the headmaster didn't know what to say to this peculiar little girl. She looked and sounded very peculiar not unlike Xeno Lovegood. He shook his head, and decided to just go along with it. These people didn't look like threats or spies.

"I'm Professor Dumbledore, headmaster of this school. Why don't we go up to my office and discuss this away from prying ears."

"Of course Headmaster" Peter answered. Peter felt like he could trust this man with his deepest secrets, and he wouldn't be looked upon any differently.

Lucy looked over at her siblings expressions. They seemed of utter peace. She realized some kind of magic was at work here. She pulled on a blank face, not willing to trust this man. He was using magic on her siblings, and she didn't like anyone messing with her siblings, especially people they had just met.

Over there time at the Professor's house, people grew used to seing the four siblings around town, often on horses. The town's citizens also took notice of their good looks. The Pevensies could be described as "hot" and people were persistent on going on a date with one of the four.

Many people had approached the Pevensies, but everyone was shot down. It wasn't because they weren't from Narnia, it was because they couldn't put up with the close family bond. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy were closer than most. Lucy had a keen sense for people who didn't have nice intentions. People knew that if you asked one of the Pevensies out, it wasn't the big brother you had to worry about. It was Lucy.

Lucy walked behind her siblings, pulling Sev along by the hand. She followed until they reached the entrance doors. There she grabbed Peter's shirt from the back, and gave it a small tug.

Peter slowed down until he was level with his sister. Lucy looked mad, and anxious. Her eyes were darting around everywhere, he noticed.

"What is it Lucy?" Peter asked concerned. He knew it was never good if Lucy was acting like a trapped animal.

"I don't trust the Headmaster. He's gives off bad vibes." Lucy answered. "I think we need to see if the Deep Magic flows here, and maybe use it to protect ourselves."

"Good Idea." Peter walked forwards. He acted non chalant but if you knew him you would be able to see that his shoulders were tense, and his eyes looked like frozen ice.

Edmund noticed, as did Susan. Peter locked eyes with Edmund, and gave a small nod towards the Headmster and then made a movement with his hands, indicating they should use the Deep Magic to protect themselves from the Headmaster.

In return Edmund threw a questioning gaze at Lucy than looked back at his brother. Peter nodded. Lucy had warned him.

Susan was having her own conversation at the moment. Lucy had walked up to her. The older sister noticed that Lucy's hands were clenched, and she was almost glaring at the Headmaster. Wanting to find out what was wrong, she locked eyes with Lucy. Susan threw her sister a questioning glance. In return Lucy responded with shivering, than glancing toward the Headmaster and then making the same hand movements as Peter. Susan nodded.

For outsiders she seemed unchanged but to her siblings she had become the cold persona she would assume in Narnia whenever dealing with unfriendly, or unwanted guests.

Dumbledore was unaware of what was going on. His thoughts were occupied by the mystery the four people behind him represented. He didn't know where they came from, how they were able to see magic, or anything else beside their names. Dumbledore continued to ponder the mystery walking behind him until they arrived at the Stone Gargoyle.

"Cookies and Crème Cholcote" He liked the Password.

"I didn't take you for a Hershey Fan Professor Dumbledore." Susan said from behind Dumbeldore.

"I adore Hershey." Dumbledore answered.

The 5 people made their way up the moving stair case. When they arrived at the door, Albus simply opened it, and then started to conjure chairs for his guests.

"Now, that we are in private, how about you tell me a bit about yourself." Dumbledore asked, pulling his grandfather mask on tightly.

After not getting a reply he looked at the four adults, and noticed them staring at a portrait behind his desk.

"I see you have found the portrait of the only headmaster of Hogwarts who retired instead of keeping the job until theyr dying day. Professor Digory."

Digory seemed to be staring at the four in shock.

"H-h-how are you l-lit- little ones?" Digory asked in shock and with a slight tint of fear in his voice.

"You know these people Digory?" Dumbledore asked intriqued. How and when ahd they met Digory? Last he had heard Digory was living out his life in an old estate.

"Of course I do. They are the most amazing people in the world I had the pleasure to meet." Then Digory turned to the four still in shock people. "We will talk later. I ave a portrait hanging in the house, right behind the wardrobe." With that Digory left, leaving everyone behind.

Dumbledore smiled. "Well I didn't think you knew one of Hogwarts' Headmasters."

'We're old friends." Lucy replied. Her voice had a touch of frost in it, and her eyes clearly said she didn't like Dumbledore.
