Y/n and the boys joined Susan and Lucy at the targets. Susan kept missing the target and she started to lose faith.
"Just trust in the bow, Susan" Y/n said trying to give her some encouragement. Susan rolled her eyes and handed Y/n the bow.
"You try then" She said. The boys stepped forward as Y/n took the bow and stood in front of the first target.
"Oh, I'm ready to see this." Peter exclaimed, Susan gave him a death stare and stood back to watch. Y/n took a deep breath extended her arm. Within a second an arrow shoots from the bow straight onto the bullseye. The boys and Lucy start clapping and cheering. Y/n moves over to the next target and does the same, landing straight onto the bullseye. She moves onto the third and straight onto the bullseye. When she got to the fifth and final target, she turned to Peter and winked. He smirked and blushed slightly. Y/n took one last deep breath and then closed her eyes.
"Trust is all you need" Y/n shouted and the arrow flew from the bow, straight through the bullseye. Everyone was clapping and cheering. Y/n took a bow and walked over to Susan, she smiled and handed her back the bow.
"See boys. Not just a pretty face." Y/n smirked and Peter looked her up and down impressed by her bow and arrow skills.
"Show off. You've done that before" Susan accused. Y/n rolled her eyes.
"Nope never touched a bow in my life." Edmund started laughing and Susan wacked him on the arm.
"Ow!" Edmund wined and they all laughed. Y/n walked over to Susan and put her hand onto her shoulder.
"Just trust not only in the bow but in yourself. They gave you that bow for a reason, show me the real you." Susan smiled and hugged her. Lucy and Susan went back to the targets once more. Y/n walked over to the boys.
"Ready for your training?" She asked. The boys looked at each other in confusion.
"What are we doing?" Peter asked, Y/n smiled and grabbed Peter's arm.
"Well Knight of Narnia, you two will practice sword fighting. You each get a horse and you have to practice combat on and off your animal." The boys both looked excited and smiled at each other.
"Well, what will you be doing, Princess?" Peter asked leaning down to Y/n's face, she blushed and smiled.
"Watching" She replied and scrunched her nose which made Peter blush and kiss her on the cheek.
"You guys are disgusting." Edmund exclaimed and Peter gave him a dirty look. Y/n stepped forward to Edmund and started poking at his stomach.
"Well you won't say that when you get a girlfriend." She teased and Edmund ran away and pushed away her hands.
"Get off! Never gonna happen!" Edmund shouted and they all laughed. Y/n grabbed Peter's hand and led them to the stables.
"Come on, let's get you your horses." The boys followed and when they got to the stables they both picked out a horse. Y/n gave Edmund his sword and helped him onto the horse.
"You guys know how to ride a horse right?" Y/n asked looking up at the two boys. They looked at each other and smiled.
"No. Not a clue." Peter replied, the boys laughed. Y/n rolled her eyes and sighed.
"The horses will take control, you'll be fine." Edmund's horse ran off into the distance and Y/n laughed at the sight of Edmund struggling and fighting with the horse. Peter rode his horse towards Y/n and she puts her hands on his knee.
"Be careful, okay?" Y/n orders with worry in her face. Peter cupped her chin with his hand and leant down towards her face.
"Anything for you, Princess." He whispers and kisses her on the forehead. Y/n blushed and watched as Peter rode of towards Edmund, they fought back and fourth with their swords, while Y/n helped the other warriors with their weapons and armour. Throughout training, Y/n and Peter shared glances at each other and they both were constantly blushing.
A little while after, Y/n walked over to the targets and Susan got an arrow straight on the bullseye. Y/n cheered and clapped and Susan and Lucy turned around. Lucy ran over to hug Y/n and Susan sat down on the grass to take a rest.
"I hate to say it, but you were right. Trust worked." Susan smiled.
"Only after complaining the whole time." Lucy snarkily replied. Her and Y/n laughed as Susan threw a bit of water over her.
"Come on Ed! Sword hand up like Oreius showed us!" Peter shouted at Edmund. The girls attention turned to them. They all laughed as they watched the brothers battle back and forth. Y/n noticed Mr Beaver running towards the brothers and motioned the sisters to follow her. They caught up to the Beaver and Edmund's horse reared up.
"Woah horsey!" Edmund yelled.
"My name is Phillip" The horse replied back and Edmund was taken aback.
"Oh sorry.." He shyly replied.
"You better come quick! The White Witch has requested a meeting with Aslan.." Everyone looked at each other in fear and the boys jumped off the horses. They all started following the beaver but Y/n stayed back picking at her fingernails. She started breathing heavy and tears formed in her eyes. Peter ran up to her and grabbed her hands.
"Woah woah woah, You okay?" He asked worriedly. Y/n looked up at Peter but her vision was blurry. She reluctantly nodded her head. Peter knew she wasn't so he just pulled her into a hug and stroked her hair. Y/n calmed down within a few seconds. She pulled away from the hug and Peter put his hands on her cheeks.
"No one is gonna hurt you, okay? I'm here." Y/n took a deep breath and nodded her head. Peter kissed her forehead and grabbed her hands to start running towards the main camp.
When they both got to the camp they stood with the others and Lucy hugged Y/n while she stood behind Peter holding his arm. The thought of seeing the White Witch in person since... the incident. She was nervous but she felt safe with Peter.
The White Witch was laying on a bed-bench with 4 Cyclops's carrying her. One dwarf was on the bed-bench with her.
"Jadis...Jadis!!!" The dwarf shouted and the other warriors crowded round. The White Witch hopped off the bed-bench and walked over to Aslan. Aslan stood proud in front of her.
"You have a traitor in your midst, Aslan" Jadis said calmly. Everyone in the crowd gasped and we all looked at Edmund. He looked scared and Susan put her hand on his shoulder comfortingly.
"His offence was not against you" Aslan said calmly.
"Have you forgotten the Deep Magic?" She asked with a smirk on her face. Aslan got angry and stomped his paw on the ground. Y/n flinched and held Peter's arm tighter. Peter turned to look at her and put his hands on her hands.
"Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was made." Aslan growled.
"Then you will know that the boy belongs to me." Jadis turns towards the crowd and points straight at Edmund. Lucy wrapped her arms around Y/n tighter, scared.
"That boy, will die on the Stone table." Peter drew his sword and pointed it towards Jadis.
"Come and take it then." He said protectively. Jadis chuckled and turned to face Peter.
"You think a little threat will deny me my right, little king? Aslan knows that if I do not have blood as the law demands, all of Narnia will be overturned, and perish, in fire and water."
"Peter is more of a ruler than you'll ever be." Y/n stepped forward and looked Jadis right in the eye. Her smile turned to a frown when she saw the Princess.
"My dear Princess. Such a shame. Such wasted potential. We would've been powerful together." Y/n and Jadis don't break eye contact and Y/n started to get angry, she let go of Peter's arm and walked forward.
"I'd starve before I went anywhere near you, Witch. You were never and will never be a queen to me. So take your off-brand dress and go back to where you came from" The crowd started cheering, and Y/n stood proudly. Jadis grew angrier and stepped towards Y/n with her spear.
"Why you little-" Peter pushed Y/n back and pointed his sword at her. Y/n looked at Peter who's eyes were fixated on Jadis.
"Enough! Y/n and I shall talk with you alone." Aslan interrupted and looked at both of them then walked into the tent. Jadis followed and Y/n went to when Lucy stopped her.
"Will you be okay, Y/n?" She asks quietly. Y/n knelt down and tucked Lucy's hair behind her ears.
"Have courage, sweetheart." Lucy smiled and hugged her. Y/n closed her eyes and stayed in the moment she got up and smiled at Susan who returned a weak and nervous smile. Y/n hugged Edmund and whispered in his ear.
"I'll protect you. You're safe now" Edmund looked at her pleadingly and joined his sisters sitting on the grass. When Y/n got to Peter he looked scared.
"I'm only going for a chat, Peter. You're acting like I'm never gonna see you again." Y/n joked but Peter didn't even budge a smile. She put her hands on his cheeks and rubbed her thumb back and forth.
"I'm okay. I don't need protecting all the time. Your family needs you." Y/n smiled and pulled Peter into a hug. He hugged her tightly and closed his eyes.
"I need you" He whispered, they looked at each other and Y/n could feel tears forming in her eyes. To hide the tears she rested her head on his chest and he placed a gentle kiss on her head. Y/n kissed Peter's hands and watched as he went and joined his siblings on the ground. Y/n took a deep breath and walked into Aslan's tent.
"Ah Princess, just in time. Aslan and I have come to an agreement." Jadis announced. Y/n was confused and looked at Aslan.
"I have agreed to take Edmund's place on the Stone table." Y/n's eyes widened and Jadis smirked.
"NO! NO WAY! YOU CAN'T! YOU'RE THE PROTECTOR! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITHOUT YOU!" Y/n screamed, Aslan was still as calm as ever.
"Hush Princess. It's either me or Edmund. The choice seems fairly simple." Aslan walks out of the tent and Jadis stays for a moment to observe Y/n's shock.
"You might want to tell your little king about our....past" Jadis whispers as she walks past out of the tent. Y/n had no time to process what just happened she wanted to cry but couldn't. All Y/n did was take a deep breath and walk out the tent to join Aslan.
"The Witch has denounced her claim on Edmund" He announced and everyone started cheering. Y/n wanted to be happy too but she couldn't.
"How will I know your promise will be kept?" Jadis asked. Aslan roared making her fall into her bed-bench. All the Narnians laughed and Jadis left with her creatures. Everyone in the crowd was happy. Aslan and Y/n looked at each other, Aslan turned around and walked through the tent. Lucy had her eyes on Aslan and Peter on Y/n they both could tell something was wrong.
Y/n knew that Aslan's mind was made up. There was nothing she could do to change it. She knew she had to tell Peter about her past but she didn't know how. For the first time Y/n didn't know what to do.
It scared her.75Please respect copyright.PENANA47LzmIn8zq
