On the Banks of the Narnia Sea

Dear Katie, 

This story is well done!  We are proud of your perservance and hard work in writing.  We know this doesn't come easy for you, yet.  But this story is worthy of publication!  Who knows...maybe C.S. Lewis would have added this little bit to an 8th book if he was still around. Good job, Pippers!

"On The Banks of the Narnia Sea" -by Katie Hime

It was a beautiful morning in England, the Pevensies we're going to Digger Clerk's house for lunch. Lucy and Edmund got there a few minutes before the others. Where have those other Pevensies got off to? The scent of lunch drifted out of the kitchen. Where are those two other Pevensies? I'm so dreadfully hungry and it's time for lunch.

Susan and Peter arrived a few minutes later very hungry. They dove into a marvelous lunch, with fruit salad, and eggs, and toast with jam and honey. "Edmund don't pinch me like that it hurts,” said Lucy. “It wasn't me. Oh ouch” defended Edmond. Then all of the sudden the walls and table disappeared. “Well bother, I was just starting to get full, and I didn’t have a bite of bacon yet,” Peter said to Susan. “We seem to be in some sort of type of wood on a very tall hill... Very much overgrown that's for sure. Oh Peter, I'm still hungry,” commented Susan.

Peter jumped up, “Come on then, Aslan what has brought us here for a reason. I'm sure of it!” So off they went. Let us go back a few days ago and see where a little friends were called here.

A few days ago something quite mysterious had happened. All the rivers in Narnia had overflowed their banks and the water had magically encircled all the talking animals, men of earth and men of Adam. The king whose name was Kalmar Glower, had said, ”this would be the perfect time for someone to take over the kingdom.” As soon as the words were out of his mouth he wished he hadn't said them quite yet.

For all of the sudden, a giant beast rose out of the water around them in a circle and said, “I am the dragon of everman's bluff.” Then he just disappeared. He came from out of nowhere and went back into that nowhere. It was quite sudden for sure.

Take over the kingdom he did, he took Cair Paravel, the ford of Beruna, and many other places. It was an awful sight to behold, truly awful… till the kingdom was little more than a big lake.

This is where our little friends come in. The beast visited the circle everyday. It just happened that they got to Narnia a few minutes before the beast visited the circled. Susan and Lucy decided to do a little exploring while the boys started a fire. They walked a little bit away and then the land started to slope down to the water. They were very much surprised, for what did they behold? It was water, tons and tons of water. A few yards away there was a circle of land completely surrounded by water. Lucy quickly jumped and ran back to get the others. When she, Edmund, and Peter got back they beheld a most awful sight. A giant beast slowly rose out of the water. All of the sudden Peter heard the twang of an arrow and the dragon fell. Susan had the second arrow on the string, and sunk it into the heart. The water immediately started to go down and Edmund ran down the hill followed by King Peter. Suan kept the arrow on the bow string.  Edmund then sliced off the dragon tail, and high Peter came up and said, “In the name of that Aslan's mane I hear by kill this dreadful creature,” and slashed of the head of the dragon.

A cheer went up from the crowd. The men of Adam and the men of Earth came up to congratulate the King and Edmund.  Lucy and Susan immediately went to the animals to make sure they were all okay. King Glower invited them to Cair Paravel for a glorious lunch, of course they accepted this at once. It was even grander than the one they were going to have at digger Clerk's house... This is where our story comes to an end, and I'm sorry to say that you will never know what quite happened. But someday, you yourself might find yourself in Narnia we’ll never know…
