I tossed and turned, unable to sleep. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. The air was cool and crisp like a damp flannel on a hot day. I stretched, being careful not to wake Lucy and Susan, who was sleeping peacefully and swung my legs out of bed. I padded up and down the tent a few times, thoughts running through my head. something just wasn't right. the witch just wouldn't ket Edmund go that easily. Aslan must have done something. a rustling noise broke me from my thoughts. I looked at the entrance of my tent, and a dark shape slid past. Aslan. Hastily, I pulled my cloak around me and snuck out of the tent I followed Aslan, a few steps away and the trees shielded me, keeping me in the darkness. something snagged my cloak and I looked around to see the freckled face of Lucy looking up at me "Lucy! what are you doing!?" I hissed. she let go of my cloak and looked into the dark trees. I sighed "Susan, I know you're in there" Susan stepped out from behind the trees and smiled awkwardly "you saw Alsan too huh" I nodded "something's wrong, I know it." "are you three quite finished?" the boom of Aslan's voice made me jump, and he chuckled softly "you're supposed to be in bed" "just a little further," Lucy said hopefully "please, sir" "alright, I could use the company". We walked in silence till we reached a clearing. "I must take the rest of this journey alone." "But Aslan-" "I'm sorry. Y/N, you must go too" I looked into his eyes. I didn't want to leave him "you have to trust me. this must be done. Thank you Susan. Thank you Lucy and farewell." Before he could go any further, I hugged him tightly around his neck "please don't go." tears filled my eyes "be safe, my sun." I let go, and watched him leave before returning to camp with Susan and lucy.
-Later that night-
"The great cat is dead!" the horrible crowd cheered in victory and I screamed out in pain. "Y/N. where's your master now?" the witch's eyes were filled with malice and cruelty.
I jolted awake, sobbing silently into the night. he's gone. The wind picked up. I walked to the edge of the tent and whispered into the air. "spread the news. Aslan is dead. The war is at dawn."
A/N thank you so much for sticking out, I've just been overwhelmed with schoolwork. I have no clue how this blew up, but I appreciate every single one of you for choosing to read my book. Immy xoxo
