Hey there thanks for the reviews well review, thanks Raina, although I am still hoping for more please! Anyway again I pretty much copied the scene from the film for this chapter obviously I altered a few bits, but whenever I watch that scene on the film it rips my heart out every time!
Songs, I went really sad for these, I especially picked tear jerkers,
Where is love, (Oliver.)
I picked this song as it is so heart wrenching and I think shows the feeling of all the children going away and it makes me cry.
I want a mum(I don't really know.)
I find this song so sad and I think Susan and Lucy especially need a mum at this point in the story and I'm hoping for tears!
Peter Pevensie clutched his dark brown leather suitcase he could feel the handle slip in his palms that were becoming sweaty, he was nervous. He had never been apart from his mother for longer than a few days but nobody knew how long this war would go on for in a way it felt like forever. He looked at the train that was almost in the platform he knew that soon he had to say goodbye. He looked down at his label it had his name and an address of the house him and Edmund would be staying in. Edmund was looking at a poster of some evacuees in a picture, they were in a country setting obviously using propaganda to promote evacuation thought Peter as he looked at the poster himself. Edmund screwed his face up as he looked at it in disgust and said to their mother who was checking his tag,
"The countryside looks boring." he said spitting out the words harshly.
Their mother smiled at him weakly and whispered trying to add confidence into her voice,
"Well at least your safe."
She embraced Edmund and went to kiss him gently on the head but Edmund bridled against his mother and she backed away over to Peter tears forming in her eyes, she was clearly hurt by Edmund backing away from her.
She embraced Peter and whispered to him firmly,
"Look after him Peter."
Peter gulped down his tears trying desperately to be brave for his mother and for Edmund, he didn't want to say goodbye but there were children on those trains alone a lot younger than he was, a lot younger than he was , ten years maybe.
"I will mum." he said assuring his mother.
He pulled back from his mother's embrace as he and Edmund edged nearer to the train leaving their mother on the platform loosing her two sons to the war, exactly how she had lost her husband.
Susan and Lucy were stood on the same platform, yet they were alone. Susan sighed all they had were the tickets, their bags and labels and themselves, their aunt did not even say goodbye, she felt as though herself and Lucy were the only children there not clinging to their mothers crying for them. Susan looked down at Lucy there were huge tears in her eyes, she was thinking of their mother. Susan bent down to her height and brought out her handkerchief and began wiping Lucy's eyes.
"Now it's going to be ok Lucy were going to be safe in the countryside." she whispered comfortingly.
Lucy hugged the bear she was holding close to her chin and mumbled, "I want mother."
Susan gasped slightly tears were forming at the thought of her mother she hugged Lucy and took her by the shoulders and reassured her, "Lucy mother is always with us now we have to brave come on."
Susan took her sister's hand and boarded the train and found an empty carriage. She and Lucy sat closely to each other in silence until a boy who looked about fifteen opened the door to the carriage as Susan looked up at him. He had sandy blond hair cut in a fringe over his brown eyes, the boy behind him looked about eleven and had dark brown hair and the same dark brown eyes, she presumed they were brothers.
"Do you mind the others are all full." the oldest boy asked her.
"Not at all." she replied still holding onto her sister.
Peter and Edmund entered the carriage Peter looked at the older girl she had pale creamy skin dark brown hair in large curls and bright blue eyes, she was wearing a pleated skirt and blue and grey blazer. She was clinging to another girl who he presumed to be her sister who looked to be about seven or eight she had short dark auburn hair and light brown eyes.
The train moved forwards and Peter looked one last time for his mother and then turned back to the girls opposite him he noticed that they were not waving at all.
Peter and Edmund sat across from Susan and Lucy Peter stared at Susan and felt the need to introduce himself so he placed his hand out and said,
"Peter Pevensie."
Susan smiled and took his hand,
"Susan Wilder."
Peter felt Susan's skin in his hand it was soft and gentle, her skin felt amazing he could have grasped her hand all day but soon he heard Edmund cough at him so he let go suddenly and introduced Edmund hastily,
"Erm this is my younger brother Edmund."
Susan smiled politely at Edmund as he ignored her, as usual being ignorant, but Susan dismissed this and introduced her sister.
"This is Lucy my younger sister."
Peter smiled at Lucy as she smiled softly back at him.
There was a prominent silence in the carriage until Peter decided to make conversation and asked Susan,
"So where are you two going."
Susan looked surprised, she hadn't checked their labels yet, she looked down at the small brown paper around her neck and read it out,
"manor house coombe."
Peter looked down at his and his eyes went wide, he looked at Ed who was also checking his label in shock,
"So are we."
