Chapter 13 - River Rush

we reached the cliff looking down at the river ice was breaking off in big chunks and it would be long before it would be completely flowing once more.

"we need to cross now" Peter stated, taking Lucys hand.

"don't beavers make dams?" Lu questioned.

"i'm not that fast dear" Beaver replied

"come on" Peter ordered we went to leave.

"wait can't you just think about this for a minute" Susan stopped us and we turned to face her.

"we don't have a minute" Peter retorted

"i was just trying to be realistic" she replied he shook his head.

"no you were just trying to be smart as usual." i took Susan's hand right when we heard howling i pulled her along and we followed the others to the river. Peter when to take a step onto the ice but it cracked.

"maybe i should go first" Beaver offered

"maybe you should" he walked on making sure it was safe.

"you've been sneaking second helpings haven you?" Bea asked as her husband made his way further onto the river.

"well you never know what meals gonna be your last...especially with your cooking" he added we carefully walked out onto the ice. Lucy screamed once or twice as she held onto Peter.

"if mum knew what we were doing" Susan started but she never finished because Peter did that for her.

"mums not here" he retorted

"oh no" Lucy was looking up wolves where here and i felt useless i was supposed to be a protected yet i didn't or couldn't do anything.

"run" we did but the wolves blocked us off and grabbed  Beaver. Peter took out his sward and held it out.

"put that down boy someone could get hurt." a wolf spoke

"don't worry about me run him through" Beaver yelled

"leave while you still can and your brother leaves with you the wolf ordered

"stop Peter, maybe we should listen to him" Susan shouted at her brother I could tell Peter was having an internal battle the wolf laughed.

"smart girl" he commented

"don't listen to him, kill him. kill him now" Beaver shouted  and that's how it was Susan saying to give up Beaver saying otherwise

"what's it gonna be son of Adam i won't wait forever and neither will the river"

"Peter" Lucy yelled we looked to the river.

"hold onto me" he shouted i did and the water came down moving the block of ice, my finger momentarily let go and that was a mistake because i went to fell into the water i ready myself for impact but it never came i opened my eyes and saw that i was up in the air. wh what happened i looked back and noticed golden orange wings holding me up.

i had wings oh my stars i had wings.  the falters and i screamed but i never dropped i breathe i sigh of relief but it was short lived when i saw a short hair girl in the water. my instinct kicked in and i went to help my friend i scooped her up in my arms and she screamed.

"Lucy relax its me" she looked up.

"Genie... how?" she questioned.

"no idea but right now I'm not questioning it. i looked for the others and saw the were climbing up the embankment. so i headed for them.

"Lucy! Genie!" Susan shouted i landed somehow gracefully on the ground.

"has anyone seen our coats" Lucy asked i forgotten that i had no coat on. they looked to us and chuckled  Peter taking care of Lucy and Susan taking care of me.

"i don't think you'll be needing those coats anymore2 we looked and saw that ice was dripping as we walked further on i saw cherry blossoms bloom we were now in a think wood and it was getting warmed i shed my coat and there was a gasp.

"you have wings" Susan stated both her and Peter was shocked.

"yeah about that...surprise" i chuckled nervously
