You have to lead us Part 2:
(Previously in Chapter 8)
But when we grabbed our towels from the tree, the unthinkable happened.
James's P.O.V.:
One of the Wizard's wolves were right in front of me and I gave a little scream, so did Lauren and Logan. Maurgrim started to say, "Please don't try to run, were tired," then Vardan finished, "And we prefer to kill you quickly," I looked at the tent and saw my horn but before I could grab it, I hit Maurgrim with the towel like a fly on a wall. "Lauren, Logan quick up the tree I got an idea," I shouted over my shoulder which I grabbed my horn, placed it to my lips and blew signaling our call for help.
Kendall's P.O.V.:
I was still on the top of the hill with Aslan thinking about what he said when I heard the sound of the horn, "James. I'm coming," I screamed and ran as fast as a cheetah over to the river. As I looked Logan and Lauren were freaking out while James managed to climb the tree and the wolf almost got his shoe. Not nice. So I grabbed my sword and began to run through the water with un sheathed and cried out, " Hey wolf heads, get back from my friends" "Kendall" Lauren shouted as I approached the wolves circling around them. "Come on you! We went through this before already. You haven't got in you, you freak," Maurgrim taunted as he circled me " Don't buy into it Kendall, watch out! Were not freaks you know," James screamed. "Thanks James and I am not a freak. I'm the descendant of King Peter," I told Maurgrim still ciricling him sword drawn. "Silence you. All the king wants is," he was starting to say before noticing his other companion trample on him. "What the," he asked. I saw Aslan's paw on top of Vardan and Kiera ran over with her sias drawn along with the others joining in. "Back off Maurgrim," she sternly told him weapon drawn. Oreius was ready to do the same. "Stay your weapon daughter, all of you. This is the battle for the high king's descendant," he told them. They lowered their weapons and watched as my head soon turned from the help to Maurgrim looking like he was ready to pounce. "You might have the bloodline of the pest, yet now you will die like a dog ", he sneered before lunging on and my sword was at the right angle to hit him but his body over came me with darkness while I fell down.
Logan's P.O.V.:
"No Kendall look out," I screamed as we watched him fell down. "Kendall," we cried out afterwards. James jumped down from the tree then me and Lauren. I helped her down and we quickly ran over to the fur pile. "Please let him be safe, please be safe," Lauren pleaded with honest breath thinking to ourselves we were okay. "Guys help me roll of the body," I told them. We rolled over Maurgrim's body and saw Kendall as he sat up with his sword still in the body. Kendall looked shocked at this. The three of us smiled and embraced Kendall with open arms knowing he did it. Aslan soon released Vardan from his paw and commanded the others saying, "All of you after him, he'll lead you to Carlos. Bring him home safe" Oreius nodded taking the reinforcements along with Kiera that came with him before.
Kendall's P.O.V.:
"Kendall, descendant of Peter clean your sword," Aslan commanded to me. I did so with grass and walked over to Aslan then knelt before him. I felt his heavy paw on my shoulder then he commanded, "Arise, Sir Kendall Wolfsbane, Knight of Los Angeles and Narnia," I solemnly did and was shocked at my new title. Lauren, James and Logan looked at me and they smiled. I soon looked at Aslan and he smiled back at me then I sheathed my sword.
Logan's P.O.V.:
The three of us were happy that Kendall was safe and a knight but we were concerned about Carlos. "You think Carlos is okay," Lauren asked us. "I hope he is Lauren, I hope he is," I told her as we walked back to camp after that afternoon we just had.
(At the Wizard's camp)
Third Person's P.O.V.:
It was late at night and the followers of the Wizard had arrived at camp starting to make the weapons for the battle in hopes of squashing the destined ones for good. Carlos was still tied up next to a tree but in the main tent, the wizard was having a battle planning session with a general but little did they know. Trouble was soon to be lurking in the trees where the reinforcements of Aslan were waiting to strike. "The minotaurs plan to take the flanks high my liege, we should have better odds of beating the enemy there," Otmin told his king. "Good but what about the other creatures," he asked. " With His Majesty's permission, the giants, dwarves and other main allies will be on the ground ready to strike," Otmin continued. "I accept only on the condition the winged creatures are to be used if necessary," Hawk told him. "Yes Your Majesty," he told him. "Good, now any word from Maurgim," he asked. "No my king we hadn't heard anything whatsoever," Otmin told him. "Hmm. He should have been back by now,' Hawk wondered. Soon, they heard the growl of a wolf and Vardan came running into the tent. "Your Majesty, I have some grave news," he panted. "Speak my creature speak," he commanded. "Maugrim is dead," he said to his king. "What?! Tell me who slayed my captain," he asked rising from his throne. "Kendall Majesty, the descendant of Peter. He and the others made it to your enemy's camp. He is here," he replied knowing he can't say Aslan's name in front of him.
Hawk's P.O.V.:
"No! That can be the case. I thought for certain he (looking over at Carlos) would turn them into me. I gave him that dark magic when he was born. But wait a second if only four of the thrones are filled instead of the five, the prophecy would not come true. I would still be in power and rule," I thought. "What do we suggest we do Majesty, we don't have much time before enemies find out I'm here," Vardan asked me. "We need to carry this out and fast. Dwarf," I called out to my Ginnabrick as he came to the tent. "You called me Majesty," he bowed. "Prepare the victim for killing then on my signal, kill him," I told the dwarf. "Of course," he replied.
Carlos's P.O.V.:
This was not how I wanted things to go but I promised myself to stay strong for my friends. They are my family and I would be mad if they did something to them. Oh great Ginnabrick is back what does he want this time? "The king is done with you. He ordered me to kill you the same way your friend Kendall did to his captain," he said drawing out a dagger from his coat. I started to panic knowing this would be coming sooner rather than later. "Please tell my friends I love them," I pleaded to the dwarf before feeling the blade on my cold skin.
Third Person's P.O.V.:
On the outskirts of the camp, Keira and Oreius along with the guards of Aslan waited for the perfect moment to strike. "Alright, when I yell now we strike," she whispered to them. They nodded and soon looked to see the dwarf ready to strike Carlos. "NOW," she shouted and they ran right into the camp raiding the whole thing as creatures were caught off guard not knowing what to do. Kiera and Oreius soon made it to Carlos as the dwarf backed away in fear. "Carlos, do you hear me," she asked. "Yes I hear a voice, Kendall," he asked in shock. "No I'm Kiera, we met before on the walk. Orieus and I are going to get you to safety, here," she said taking his hands and placing him on the centaur. "Let's get out of here, everyone retreat," she commanded and they gallopped out of camp.
Hawk's P.O.V.:
"Your Majesty, your prisoner he's gone," Otmin the Second told me looking over the camp. "WHAT," I thundered rising from my throne. I stormed over to where Carlos was placed oh how I can say that name and those Big Time Pests. Ginnabrick instead was tied to the tree with his dagger in the hat. I took it out and soon slashed the ropes that bound him to the tree. "Will you not kill me, Majesty," he asked looking at me. "No, my servant. We have some work to do, and I need to see an old friend," I told him before walking back to my tent planning to claim Carlos as my own.
Third Person's P.O.V.:
Back at Aslan's camp, a bonfire was going on celebrating the defeat of Maurgrim, and Kendall made a knight in the court of Narnia. All of Big Time Rush's friends were there in the celebration along with the creatures of Narnia gearing up for the big battle that their friends were apart of.
Lauren's P.O.V.:
I was sitting over by one of the tents thinking about how far I came from being a girl in Brooklyn to now a destined descendant of one of Narnia's queens. I couldn't believe this was happening to me all of a sudden, but it was written when I was born. This is amazing for me. In the flames of the fire, I saw Logan walking over towards me. "There you are Lauren, I was looking for you, everything okay," Logan asked coming over. "Yeah just thinking," I replied. "Thinking about our destiny," he asked sitting on the ground. "Yeah, I was reflecting on how much I became from growing up in Brooklyn and not knowing about it until today. I honestly didn't know who i was but got hints back at home when everyone bowed before me and called me the Valiant Queen," I answered. "They called you that," Logan asked. "Yeah but I can't believe I get to fulfill my destiny with you," I said giving Logan a hug. "Yes it sure is Lauren, I feel the same way as you do," Logan told me. "You do," I asked looking at him. "Yep 100% but now, I'm starting to doubt," he admitted. "Why," I questioned. "I'm not sure Lauren why I doubt," he told me. "Well to be quite honest Logan, we were born for this. It was written in the stars and I know the five of us can rule the kingdom," I told him as music flowed to me as I thought of a song to sing.
Lauren starting to sing
Ever since I was born I, knew to be destined, for something greater in my life and in the past few days, I saw the journey that it took my ancestor to save a land from destruction yeah. I will be the queen she wants me to be now cause I believe, it's written in the stars when I was born. The world I read is where we belong, yet faith and love has kept us strong. And knowing who they are, we'll be that way. It's our destiny. It's our destiny.
Logan: (your right Lauren). When the water, met the sky. My heart became free, and hope came into light. Yet, I feel the crown my ancestor, wore now I'll take his place forever sure. We are made for so much more. We will be the kings and queen descended from them we believe it's written in the stars when we born. The world we read is where we belong, yet faith and love will keep us strong. And knowing who we are, were more than this, it's our destiny.
Lauren+ Logan: it's our destiny. So long live, long live Narnia!
Lauren: Ever since I was.
Lauren+ Logan: We will be the kings and queen of anything now we believe. It's written in the stars when were when we were born. The world we read is where we belong, yet faith and love has kept us strong.And knowing who we are, were more than this, yes and knowing who we are, were more than this.
Lauren: It's our destiny.
Logan's P.O.V.:
When I sang that song with Lauren, it just made my doubt disappear as if by magic. I smiled at my best friend. "Thanks Lauren. I really appreicate it," I told her. "My pleasure Logan and no matter what, we will get through this together," she smiled. I hugged my best friend as she did back before a faun came over to us. "My apologies for interrupting Your Majesties," he bowed. "Oh no need um," I started to stumble. "Fallon, King Logan, my name is Fallon," he told us. "Oh how do you do Fallon," I asked. "Very well Your Majesty. Aslan has requested an audience with Queen Lauren in his tent. He wishes to speak with you," Fallon told Lauren.
Lauren's P.O.V.:
"I'll be right there," I told him standing up. "You'll be fine," Logan asked. "Yep. Go hang with the others, I'll be back," I assured Logan and followed Fallon to the main tent. "He is in there Your Majesty," he bowed. I nodded my head in thanks and soon walked into the richly decorated tent. "Aslan, you requested to see me," I asked. "Yes I did dear one, please come in," he replied. I walked deeper into the tent and found him lying in the grass with pillows propped around him like a throne. I soon knelt before him in reverence. "Rise little one, please set next to me. We have much to talk about," he said chuckling as I rose and walked over to him sitting on the pillows which were quite comfy. "Do you know why I brought you here Lauren," he asked. "No, Aslan not really. Is it about my dad, my brother are they okay? Are we in danger," I asked the thoughts coming out of my mouth. Aslan gave a low growl and a soft pur that made me stop with the questions. "My little one don't ask to many questions, I know what confuses your heart. You are Queen Lucy's descendant and tend to be curious but also concerned for others, and you are more than that. Understand for me what I tell is true and honest okay," Aslan told me.
"Yes Aslan I will," I replied looking in his amber eyes. "Good. Your brother and father are okay. I spoke with them in my mind and they love you so much," he told me. "They do," I asked. "Of course. They miss you terribly Lauren and I believe you miss them as well," he told me. "Yes. Ever since dad and Jayden disappeared, I miss them," I told him out loud. "They long to return to you soon as well," he told me. "That's good news," I smiled. "Yes, but your brother wasn't lucky when I spoke to him," he told me solemnly. "What do you mean Aslan," I asked. "After his first destiny was completed, he went to look for you but the Wizard or Hawk really I should say captured him and turned him to stone before saying you gave up searching for him," Aslan explained. I gasped and wondered about Jayden my brother. Jayden, I miss you buddy. You were looking for me. "I wouldn't say that about Jayden or dad. Will he be okay," I asked. "He will and he loves you. He also met Carlos," he replied and I softly smiled looking at his eyes. "Dear one, something troubles you. What's wrong," he asked noticing my face. "Honestly Aslan, I'm still not sure if I'm ready to be queen of Los Angeles and Narnia. I know I was destined for this ever since I was born but still, I see myself as Lauren showing some of the qualities of Queen Lucy," I told him. "Don't you remember in your past when you thought someone changed, when they didn't and, then you defended your family," Aslan asked. I thought about it or so and I remembered all the times I defended my family from the Pranksters during the Electric Company days. "Yes I do Aslan quite clearly, but how," I wondered.
"That was Queen Lucy speaking to you. I sent her to show you the true way of being her descendant," he answered. "You sent her to me in my visions and dreams growing up," I asked surprised. "Yes. Follow in her footsteps. After all you are her descendant. Don't run from who you are," he advised me. "I will Aslan but I wish I was braver, like her," I admitted. "If you were braver, you would be a lioness my dear," he chuckled. I smiled at that knowing I can do this and Jayden was okay for the time being at least along with dad. "Thank you Aslan, for your help," I told him. "My pleasure dear one, now shouldn't you be with your friends," he asked me with a twinkle in his eye. I soon stood up realizing it. "Oh yes, I should," I smiled. I soon turned around to Aslan and curtsied to him. "Thank you Aslan. I'll come to you if I need more help," I told him. He smiled as if saying your welcome and I left the tent looking for the guys. "James, Logan, Kendall," I called to them. They turned and saw me coming toward them.
James's P.O.V.:
"Hey, there you are Lauren. Everything okay," I asked her. "Yeah Aslan told me that my dad and brother are okay, though he wasn't as lucky. To be quite honest, I''m scared," Lauren admitted. "Scared about what Lauren," Kendall asked. "The battle and fulfilling the prophecy. This is starting to get bad," she told us. "I'm scared as well guys," I admitted. "We all our James, but the important thing is that friendship and love has kept us strong for quite sometime and we can do this. But for now, let's hope Carlos comes back safe," Logan said to us. I smiled at him as we joined our future subjects dancing around the bonfire in hoping that Carlos returns to us and we can fulfill the prophecy of our ancestors.
Hope everybody enjoys Chapter 9. I still apologize if it is uploaded late, and I am pretty sure you guys guessed it but Jayden Shiba of the Power Rangers Samurai is Lauren's lost brother! Finally. So keep reading everybody I will write Chapter 10 as soon as possible until then enjoy, and have a happy Halloween. From Lucy the Valiant 89
By the way the soundtracks I used are: Peter's Battle, Knighting Peter which both are from the Narnia recording Sessions and Lucy meets Mr. Tummus for Lauren and Aslan's Conversation and for the song Our Destiny that Logan and Lauren sing, I used There's a Place for Us by Carrie Underwood.
