Chapter 22 - Teaching Edmund and Peter

[A/N:I know some of you are questioning why I haven't done much in the story.Because if Hardrian does everything for the Pevensie Siblings,they won't learn anything,Aslan whole goal of bringing humans from Earth, both to help Narnia, and to teach those people important lessons.]

Hadrian was now teaching Edmund and Peter sword fighting,he made sure to use a different sword from Excalibur.Since that would pretty much destroy them.

So he a Katana a friend made for him,it was perfect for his style of that's around 74 cm long with a traditional steel blade and Japanese hilt

Hadrian made the first move.He closed the distance between them in a single leap and in a flash brought his katana down diagonally.

Peter, who had been holding his sword low, swung high to deflect. It was a sharp strike coming at him, but he had more raw strength.

He was confident that he would have the advantage if they were to lock swords. Knocked upward, Hadrian's katana immediately drew an arc in midair to strike down with a backhand.His speed was nothing short of extraordinary.

Peter locked by holding his sword sideways, but in the next moment the point of the was lunging at his right forearm.

He pulled back his arm to dodge, and Hadrian took the opening to step forward with his right leg and slice in a rising arc. It was a relentless serial attack—and Peter was forced to fight completely on the defensive.

Edmund, who was studying them from then side yelled at Peter"Come on, Peter."

Peter mentally groaned"I am trying, but he is too fast."

And with that Peter lost, while Hadrian spoke up"You should never let your anger get the best of you in battle.Always have calm mind, otherwise your thoughts will be too clouded."

Peter, who was gasping sat down wth Edmund taking notes of everything.

Edmund and Peter would later on go to become one of the best swordsmen in Narnia.They would forever be students of Hadrian, but both there style varied.Peter went for a more traditional sword style with heavy strikes, while Edmund was more into speed and analyzing his opponents.

Now with Susan her archery improved by a mile.She was one of the best archers in all of Narnia, also during these so called training Hadrian and Susan spent time to just sit around and know each other.

This was noticed by her siblings, who were happy for her.But both Peter and Edmund did give the whole "hurt my sister and I will hurt you routine."

Then Aslan called Hadrian and in his tent, on the table was a war map,Where Aslan was moving small clay figurines of war, game pieces representing his vast army and the Army of Jadis.

Aslan then turning to Hadrian said"Jadis is coming here, our sentries spotted her."

Hadrian with a worried tone replied"She is coming for Edmund."

Aslan nodded and said"She has the right too call the deep magic.If we deny her request."

Hadrian was in deep thought, he knew by the workings of the Deep Magic, she was given ownership and the right to kill all traitors and all those who willingly would follow her.

So she had right to Edmund, but then Hadrian spoke up"But if you give him up these children will lose there trust in you and they will leave Narnia and go back to there world."

Aslan nodded, while Fox arrived and with bow spoke up"My Prince she is closing in."

Aslan and Hadrian grimaced hear this.
