~Poor Eustace~

As soon as I got onto the ship I was given a towel to help dry myself off.

"How in the world did you end up here?" I hear Caspian ask Lucy

"I have no idea." She answers

"Caspian," I say grabbing his attention.

He cut his hair since the last time I saw him and grew a stubble. Susan would've loved it.

"I'm so happy that you are okay," he says.

"I'm happy I didn't drown," I joke. Caspian lets out a laugh when Edmund calls him

"Caspian," Edmund says giving him a hug

"Edmund." Caspian says back "It's great to see all of you."

"Great to see you. Didn't you call for us?" Lucy asks

"No. Not this time." Caspain sighs.

"Well, whatever the case, I'm just glad to be here." Edmund smiles.

To break away from our nice moment, I hear Eustcae causing a fit.

"Now calm down, sir. "

"Get that thing off me! Get that thing off me!" I hear Eustace scream.

I look at Edmund and he has the most annoyed face ever. I try not to laugh at it and draw my attention to the quick patter of footsteps coming near us.

"Reepicheep!" I say surprised

"Oh. Your Majesties." Reep says with a bow

"Hello, Reep. What a pleasure." Caspian says to the mouse

"The pleasure is all mine, sir. But first, what to do about this hysterical interloper?" Reep asks, motioning to Eustace.

"That giant rat thing... just tried to claw my face off!" Eustace accuses Reep

"I was merely trying to expel the water from your lungs, sir," Reep explains calmly

"It talked! Did you see it? Did anyone just hear that? It just talked!" Educate points at Reep freaked out.

I kind of feel bad. He must be so confused

"He always talks. It's getting him to shut up that's the trick." Caspian jokes

"The moment there is nothing to be said, Your Highness... I promise you, I will not say it." Reep says to Caspian.

"I don't know what kind of prank this is, but I want to wake up right now!" Eustace stomps his feet like a child throwing a tantrum

"Perhaps we could throw him back?" Reep suggests, obviously joking.

I laugh and look at my boyfriend who looks like he is seriously considering it.

"Edmund!" I scold him and he just smiles at me like he did nothing wrong.

"I demand to know, just where in the blazes am I?" Eustace asks some of the crew members

"You're on the Dawn Treader... the finest ship in Narnia's navy." a minotaur answers and Eustace immediately faints.

"Was it something I said?" the minotaur said.

"See to him, will you?" Caspian commands one of the crew members

"Your Majesty." the crew member says and walks away.

Caspian then cleared his throat as he was about to make an announcement to the crew

"Men... behold our castaways... Edmund the Just, Astrea the Determined, and Lucy the Valiant... high King and Queens of Narnia."

Luckily Caspian had some extra clothes on the ship and I put them on

(Put dress here, -with black pants underneath)

After I got changed I met up with Lucy, Edmund, and Caspian at the Captains quarters on the ship.

"Wow," I say walking inside.

The glass window in the back perfectly captures the blue seas and the clear skies overhead.

"Look," I say pointing to a shelf

" It's Susan's bow and arrows," Lucy says

"Lucy." Caspian captured her attention.

In his hands, he held her dagger and her healing cordial

"My healing cordial... and dagger. " Lucy went to grab it and stopped "Oh, may I?"

Caspian lets out a chuckle "Of course, they're yours."
