Chereads / Hadrian in Narnia / Chapter 19 - Chapter 15

Chapter 19 - Chapter 15

Aslan's Camp,Lucy and Susan were wearing there new dress and they were washing up.While Lucy said"You look like Mum."

Susan unknowingly replied"Mum hasn't had a dress like this since before the war."

Lucy was sadned by that,but then lightened up saying"We should bring her one back.A whole trunk full!"

Susan was about to speak about the reality of there situation, how they will probably never get back.But held back and replied"I will ask Hadrian abouy that."

Lucy smiled,while it turned into a grin and asked"You like him,right."

Susan mock glared at Lucy,but then remembered how close they were,when they were young and asked"We used to have fun together, didn't we?"

Lucy nodded and replied"Yes.Before you got boring."

Susan smirked and said"Oh, really?"she then splashes Lucy with water, but Lucy doesn't give up and splashes her back and they both end up wet and laughing.

Susan walks over and pulls a towel from a branch to reveal a wolf's faces inches from her own.It was Maugrim,who was angry said"Please don't run. We're tired."

Vardan, who was his second in command added"And we'd prefer to kill you quickly."

Susan looks back and spots her horn and she remembered the braclet,it was enchanted to produce a powerful circular blast,that wound stun there enemies.Giving them time to escape.

Susan quickly quickly activate it and wolves are thrown away by the blast of energy.This allowed Susan and Lucy to run for the horn,but Maugrim was enchnaced was recover from the blast much quicker.

Peter,Hadrian and Aslan hears Susan's horn is blown off.

Peter runs off and yelling"Susan!"

Hadrian follows him rushing in her direction, while Susan and Lucy are in a tree and wolf trying to get them. Peter charges across the river brandishing his sword as Susan hauls her feet up.

Peter pointing his sword at Maugrim yelled"Get back!"

Lucy seeing her brother shouted"Peter! Ah!"

Lucy and Susan watch as the wolves encircle Peter.Maugrim with a smug tone said"Come on.We both know you haven't got it in you."

Susan was worried shouted"Peter! Watch out!"

Aslan and Hadriam with a small group of soldiers appear.As Aslan with his paws pins the second wolf to the ground,while Hadrian uses

Depulso to banish the other wolf that soared into the air and knocked out cold.

Aslan ordered the soldiers"No! Stay your weapons.This is Peter's battle."

Hadrian wasn't sure,but Aslan telepathically told him"He needs this experience,if he is really going to fight this war.Also he doesn't have much time."

Hadrian reluctantly stepped back, while Maugrim smirked seeing this and looking at Peter, who did not feel very brave; indeed, he felt he was going to be sick.

Maugrim with excitement said"You may think you're a king, but you're going to die... ...like a dog!"he then leaps at Peter.

Peter rushed straight up to the monster and aimed a slash of his sword at its side. That stroke never reached Maugrim. Quick as lightning it turned round, its eyes flaming, and its mouth wide open in a howl of anger. If it had not been so angry that it simply had to howl it would have got him by the throat at once. As it was— though all this happened too quickly for Peter to think at all—he had just time to duck down and plunge his sword, as hard as he could, between the brute's forelegs into its heart. Then came a horrible, condused moment like something in a nightmare. He was tugging and pulling and the Wolfseemed neither alive nor dead, and its bared teeth knocked against his forehead, and everything was blood and heat and hair. A moment later he found that the monster lay dead and he had drawn his sword out of it and was straightening his back and rubbing the sweat ofhis face and out of his eyes. He felt tired all over.

Then, after a bit, Susan came down the tree. She and Peter felt pretty shaky when they met and there was crying on both sides. But in Narnia no one thinks any the worse of you for that.
