The great lion stands before me in the middle of the meadow and I bow. Hot, prickly tears stream down my face and I wipe them away, confused by why I'm even crying.

"Hello Aslan," I greet in a shy voice.

"Please rise, Daughter of Eve." I get up but keep my head down. "You are uneasy by my presence, Evalynn."

I shake my head and look up to the lion making his way towards me. "No! That's not it! I'm...just not worthy, not even close to worthy to speak to you, Aslan!" I look down again and rub my eyes.

"I believe you are." I stand there for a few moments and weep into my palms. I slowly pry my hands away from my face and face Aslan again. "I also believe you are capable of the great task I am about to bestow onto you."

"Anything, Aslan. I will do anything for you."

"Your dear friend, Susan, is on the verge of losing herself. Slowly, she will bury the memories of Narnia until they are gone forever.

"They're painful memories-doesn't she have the choice to forget them?"

"Evalynn, I know you have read of the elder king and queen's last visit. I said they would not be returning to Narnia, not that they would never be happy again."

I nod. "So where do I come in?"

He sighs and says, "I ask that you watch over Queen Susan: Save her from herself. She's risking everything she knows by immersing herself in other things. You must rekindle her memories of Narnia, for her siblings will not always be there to bring her back."

"They won't?"

Aslan shakes his head. "Normally, I must not show the future of others but this intertwines with your life. Allow me to show you what's ahead."

He breathes on me and I find us outside the train station in London. Smoke rises and escapes from the entrance and police officers swarm the entire area. On-lookers are held behind with yellow tape as bodies are being pulled out of the structure. I gasp as Edmund and Peter are carried on 2 firemen's backs. Both of their clothes are covered in blood as bruises and cuts are all over their skin. Then another fireman comes out, a teenage Lucy in his arms. I cry out in anguish and fall to my knees beside Aslan. He raises his paw to my shoulder and I turn into him, burying my face in his mane.

"LET ME GO! THAT'S MY FAMILY!"

I look up and find a grown-up Susan screaming at a policeman that has his arms restraining her.

Her mask of makeup runs down her face as she goes berserk in his hold. She fights herself out of his grip and runs under the tape, making her way to where the firemen laid her siblings down. In disbelief, she shakes Lucy and screams in her little sister's face. "LUCY! LUCY, WAKE UP!"

2 other bodies are laid beside Susan and her siblings. Uncle Frank and Aunt Helen's faces look into the sky with lifeless, dead eyes. Susan stares at them with horror and then hugs Lucy's shoulders. "OH DEAR GOD! LUCY, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE HERE! I'M SO SORRY, JUST PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!"

I shoot up and start to run to Susan but Aslan calls me back. I turn to him and we're suddenly back in the meadow.

"Do you see what you must do now?"

I put my hand on my chest and try to take in what I just witnessed. "Yes, Aslan. But why me? Of all people, why me?"

"Dear one," He begins. "I have planned your friendship with Queen Susan long before both of you were born, for I knew you would save her somehow. I have seen what's inside your heart and have been reassured of my choice. You would do anything to protect your loved ones, do anything to protect Susan."

"I'm like her guardian angel?" I add.

"Yes," Aslan laughs. "Like her guardian angel."

We share a smile and I turn to watch the trees dance. "Does this mean I must go back to my world?" Aslan nods and I drop my hand. "When must I leave?"

"In 3 days time, young one. I shall let you befriend the Narnians and learn more of their history so you can relate more to Queen Susan's feelings. I know what you are thinking but please do not be afraid to open up to Narnians, for you shall meet them again in my country. Evalynn, please say you will accept my task. Say that will guide my dear child back to me?"

I begin to walk to Aslan, breaking into a run and embracing him. "Of course, anything for Susan. Anything for you."


I shoot up and find myself back in my given room. I groan and get up, fully awake and energized. I can tell someone's been here because a long, silver dress hangs in front of the wardrobe. I grab it and make my way to the marble bathroom to put it on. I take a bath, seeing as it's very early and should have plenty of time before everyone else in the castle wakes up. I brush my hair and carefully put on the dress, examining myself in it's silky designs in the mirror. A castle servant barges and finds me in front of the sink.

"My lady, I'm so sorry! I thought you were in the library again!" She says defensively as she backs out.

I smooth my dress and walk out of the bathroom. "Please don't worry about it ma'am," I assure her. She smiles and I exit the room and make my way to the throne room.

The same 2 fauns from yesterday nod to me and I remember to curtsey. They open the door for me and I walk in. 'Oh, perfect...' I think as I see a glint of a blinding light in front of me. I keep walking and go straight to Lilliandil.

"Queen Lillandil?"

She turns and gives me a radiant smile, making me feel even worse than I already do.

"Lady Evalynn, it's still early. What are you doing here?"

"Well," I breathe. "This is the only other room I know the way to, I couldn't remember how to get to the library."

"Oh," she glumly whispers.

I straighten up and suck up my pride. "And to apologize," I burst. "I'm so sorry. I've been acting hostile towards you even though I do not know you."

She gives me an understanding look and touches my arm. "It's alright, I can see where you're coming from; I forgive you. Perhaps we can be friends?"

The corners of my mouth pull up and nod to her. "I would like that." She pulls me into a hug and I gladly reciprocate it.

"There's a pleasant sight," a voice calls behind us. We turn to see Caspian enter the room. "The guards told me you both were in here. I have called everyone; it's time for breakfast."

Lilliandil grabs my hand and we follow Caspian to the dining room. Liam, Trumpkin, Glenstorm, and Tavros are already at the table, watching us as we enter. Liam gives me a thumbs up as he sees Lilliandil pulling me along. Everyone exchanges 'good mornings' and I seat myself next to Liam near the head of the table where Caspian sits, Lilliandil across from me.

"So," Caspian says to me as I drink my juice. "Did you find your room to your liking?"

I nod and set my cup down. "Definitely. Thank you so much, Caspian! The room really is great!"

He gives me an approving nod and begins to eat.

"Lyn, I was wondering if you would like to walk around a bit after breakfast? I could show you around the castle," Liam suggests.

"Or you could just ask the girl to marry you already..." Trumpkin scoffs. Tavros starts choking on his drink and Lilliandil covers her mouth, hiding her giggling. Caspian looks at at Liam and raises his eyebrows. Glenstorm keeps a straight face and eyes the dwarf. "What? I've seen the way the lad looks at the girl!"

"I've only known her for a few hours! Maybe another day though," Liam jokes.

I start coughing and Caspian pats me on the back. All eyes turn to me and they wait for me to calm down a bit. "What did you say?" I stammer.

"I was just joking, Lynn! We can go as soon as you finish."

"There's no rush," Tavros speaks.

Liam lowers his eyes and leans his head on his hand, making him look like a kid who has just been scorned.

"There is," I mention. "Aslan has told me I'm must leave for home in 3 days."

Forks plop onto plates and Glenstorm's goblet drops to the ground.

"What?" Lilliandil gasps.

"You've talked to Aslan?" asks Caspian.

"3 days!" Tavros states.

"LEAVE?" Liam nearly screams.


I can't help it, I'm a sucker for a romance story. So recently, I've been getting some messages suggesting 'something' between Lynn and Liam. I find it really interesting since I originally didn't plan for a romance plot for Lynn. I've been having dreaded writers block so OHHHWELL:p Please review to tell me what you think about the story so far and if you have any ideas for later. OR review just cause:DD

Much appreciation xx
