Chapter 5: Family Reunion!

The next day the Pevensie's along with their dwarf friend arrive at Beruna to cross the river but unfortunately when they arrived they looked upon something they didn't wanna see and it was hundreds of men cutting down tree's from the forest and were building a bridge but also being guarded by armed Telmarine soldiers as well as dangerous war machines.

They hid behind the broken down tree logs to see everything that is going on until they heard some horses coming their way and ducked to stay hidden.The ones on the horses were Miraz and a Telmarine lord as well as some of his soldiers.

Susan: Perhaps this wasn't the best way to come after all.

Peter: Okay I get it, I was wrong. Come on let's get out of here before they see us.

Peter decided to go with Lucy's idea, they arrive back at the sight they arrived to at first and were trying to think of way to cross without falling to their deaths and crashing into the water.

Peter: So where exactly do you think you saw Aslan?

Lucy: I wish you'd all stop trying to sound like grown ups. I don't think I saw him, I did see him.

Trumpkin: I am a grown up.

Lucy: It was right over......AAAAHHHHHH!!!!(Lucy saids then falls off the edge that got everyones attention)

Susan: Lucy!

When they went to Lucy they found her all right but also landed on a way for everyone to get down safely. It was hidden pathway down the cliff.

Lucy: Here...

They traveled down the cliff and into the caverns and down the stream where the water was pushing further out. They all made it to the other side and continued on with their journey until the sun was starting to set and have decided to set up camp and rest. Lucy was still awake and couldn't sleep.

Susan(Whisper): Lucy, are you awake?

Lucy: Hmm...

Susan: Why do you think I didn't see Aslan?

Lucy: You believe me?

Susan: Well, we got across the gorge.

Lucy: I don't know. Maybe you didn't really want to.

Susan: You always knew we'd be coming back here, didn't you?

Lucy: I hope so.

Susan: I finally just got used to the idea of being in England.

Lucy: But you're happy to be here, aren't you?

Susan: While it lasts.

Lucy: Do you think....do you think Elizabeth will ever forgive us, for leaving?

Susan: Sigh...I don't know it might take some time for her to forgive us but I know deep down she still loves us even you.

Lucy: I hope you're right. I do want to see her again.

Susan: Me too Lucy, me too.

(Dream Scene)

Lucy started to wake up with the sun still rising, she then hears something coming from the forest and went to see what it was but not waking up the others. She goes into the forest and saw how peaceful it looked until she came upon a female Dryad who giggled at smiled at Lucy before disappearing. Then the Dryad reappeared to Lucy and showed her a path where the tree's were making a path for Lucy to walk into. Lucy smiled at seeing the tree's waking up and moving again but then while walking she heard a soft voice and it was very familiar to her.

Soft Voice: Lucy....Lucy.

Lucy goes to where the voice was coming from and when she arrived at where the voice was heard, she smiled in joy at seeing who was calling her, it was Aslan himself.

Lucy: Aslan!

The great lion stood in the middle of the forest and Lucy with excitement runs to him and hugs him. She has missed him so much and never stop believing in him.

Aslan: Hehehe.

Lucy: I've missed you so much! You've grown.

Aslan: Every year you grow so shall I.

Lucy: Where have you been? Why haven't you come to help us?

Aslan: Things never happen the same way twice, dear one.

~CRACKING~

(End of Dream Scene)

After that crack that Lucy heard she woke up from what she thought was real and felt real but it was just a dream.

Lucy(Whisper): Susan! Wake up!

Susan(Sleeping): Huh? Certainly, Lu. Whatever you like.

Lucy then heard the a twig snapping from the forest and thought of going to check it out. She arrives at the same spot of where she met the Dryad and the tree's moving to make a path for her but that was only in her dream because what she saw was no sine of the spirits trees nor the trees moving they were so still. Lucy then goes to the location of where she met Aslan and when she did she heard a growling sound and thought it was Aslan.

Lucy: Aslan?

Lucy then gets her mouth covered by Peter who brought her close to him and he was telling her to remain quiet because something was growling and it was not Aslan. They both looked through the bushes and saw not Aslan but a Minotaur armed and dangerous. Peter told Lucy to stay hidden and stay quiet while he deals with the Minotaur in which he slowly takes out his sword and moves towards the Minotaur. Before he could make it attack, Peter was then ambushed by Caspian who drew out his sword and attacked Peter. The two of them fought each other and when Peter knocked Caspian's sword out of his hands Peter swung his sword at him but gets stuck in the tree and went to find a stone to hit Caspian while he tries to get the sword out.

Lucy: No, stop!(Lucy saids as both boy stop fighting)

Peter then looked behind him and saw the Narnians coming out of hiding armed and moving towards the scene. Lucy and Peter gasped in shock that the Narnians were still around and alive. Peter then turned around to look at his attacker in question.

Peter: Prince Caspian?

Caspian: Yes? And who are you?

Susan: Peter!

Caspian looked and saw Susan, Edmund, and Trumpkin arriving at the scene and they all saw the Narnians in front of them. Caspian then heard what Susan said and looked towards the sword he was holding and it belong to King Peter.

Caspian: High King Peter.

Peter: I believed you called.

Caspian: Well, yes but...I thought you'd be older.

Peter: Well if you like, we could come back in a few years.

Caspian: No. No, that's all right. You're just...you're not exactly what I expected.(Caspian saids then looks at Susan on how beautiful she looks that made her smile)

Edmund: Neither are you.(Edmund and looks at the Minotaur)

Asterius: (Soft growls)

Trufflehunter: A common enemy unites even the oldest of foes.

Reep: We have anxiously awaited your return, my liege. Our hearts and swords are at your service.

Lucy(Whisper): Oh my gosh, he is so cute.

Reep: Who said that?!

Lucy: Sorry.

Reep: Oh. Uh...your majesty, with the greatest respect, I do believe "courageous", "courteous", or "chivalrous" might more befit a knight of Narnia.

Peter: Well, at least we know some of you can handle a blade.

Reep: Yes indeed. And I have recently put it to good use, securing weapons for Elizabeth's army, sire.

Peter: Elizabeth? Is she here?

Voice: Why don't you look behind you little brother and see for yourself.

Peter turned around and gasped in shock and fell to the ground when an arrow was pointed at him that got good laugh from Caspian and the others. Standing before Peter and siblings was their big sister Elizabeth, High Queen of Narnia.

Elizabeth: Still the trouble maker I see and always going out of your way to pick fights. Some things never change.

Lucy: Elizabeth!

Elizabeth: Lucy..oof!(Elizabeth saids as she gets hugged by Lucy and her other two siblings)

Lucy: I missed you so much!

Edmund: It's great to see you sis.

Susan: We were so worried, we read your letter and we...we uh feel so bad for what happened.

Elizabeth: Hey we can talk more about it another time but it is great to see all of you again.

Lucy: You haven't change at bit.

Elizabeth: But you grown a couple inches so did you Ed.

Peter: Elizabeth...

(HARD PUNCH TO THE SHOULDER)

Peter: OWWWWWWWWW......

Elizabeth: That was for leaving without me knowing. I worried sick about you four and thought something bad happened to you.

Peter: I know I know...and I deserved that.

Elizabeth: Oh you deserve more than that. But I can settle your punishment another time however I can give you a hug for coming back.

Peter: That would do.

Both siblings hugged each other but Elizabeth gave Peter a strong squeeze hug that making it harder for Peter to breathe. Then after a while she let go of him so that he can catch his breath.

Elizabeth: Anyway like Reep said, we have been securing weapons for our army. We're bringing them back to our secret base where everyone else is waiting and preparing themselves for war.

Peter: Good because we gonna need every sword we can get.

Caspian: Well then, you probably wanting yours back.(Caspian saids and gives Peter back his sword)

Elizabeth: Hey Reep, where is Orion?

Reep: He wanted to make sure we weren't followed.

Lucy: Whose's Orion?

Elizabeth: A new friend of mine, and trust me Lucy he's absolutely incredible and you will like him very much. Oh! Here he comes now.

The Pevensie's looked towards their sister is looking at and they gasped in shock of who was coming their way, he was running so fast while wearing a suit in the form of a black cat as well as silver like metal all around it. It was Orion in his Black Panther suit who just arrived back after making sure that he and his allies weren't followed after securing weapons from the camp site in Beruna.

Black Panther(Orion): We weren't followed but I know for a fact that they will figure out that we took their weapons and see that little message Caspian left for them. So we should head back to the base before they send soldiers into the forest again. Oh, and it would seem the kings and queens have arrived.

Edmund: Uh sis, who is that?

Elizabeth: That is Orion, he's our newest ally for our army. I met him a couple days ago and yes he's very friendly and he wants to help bring peace and glory back into Narnia. Orion meet my brothers and sisters.

Black Panther(Orion): It's a pleasure and an honor to meet all of you. I am known as Orion Henson, The Black Panther.

Lucy(Whisper): That explains his outfit he's wearing.

Peter: Can he be trusted?

Elizabeth: Of course he can, he also saved mine and Caspian's life. And there are things he knows which includes Narnia as well as you four.

Susan: How?

Elizabeth: He'll give out his origin when we get back to base. Come along everyone.(Elizabeth saids and leaves with everyone following her)

Lucy: I would like to know more about you Orion, I can see that my sister trust you a lot.

Black Panther(Orion): I will be more than honor to tell you all about me but you might be in shock after I tell you on how I know you and your brothers and sister.

Lucy: Can't be that shocking.

Black Panther(Orion): Oh trust me it can be, Elizabeth was still shocked after I told her. Still is.

Back at Beruna, Miraz and his men looked upon the wagons and saw all their weapons taken and he knows who took them. He went up to his general and asked how much did the Narnia's take from the wagons.

Miraz: How much did they take?

Glozelle: Enough weapons and armor for two regiments. But...there's more.

Miraz: "You were right to fear the woods."

Sopespian: "X"?

Miraz: Caspian, The tenth.

Glozelle: I apologize, my lord. The blame is mine.

Miraz: I know. Tell me general, how many men did you loose?

Glozelle: We lost three men but one however got away and he reported on what he saw. I don't know what he said is true but from his reaction saids otherwise.

Miraz: Tell me what killed those men?

Glozella: It wasn't what you think it is my lord, from what our soldier spoke of he said the attacker looked like a man but dressed in all black and had the features of cat.

Miraz: Really?

Glozella: I don't know if it is true my lord. The soldier also spoke that the attacker cut down our men's weapons and none of them couldn't lay a scratch nor hit. The attacked moves so quickly and with the help of the shadows the men didn't see it coming until it was too late.

Miraz: I see.

Telmarine Soldier: Sir there is also more. It's best you see it for yourself.

The soldiers and Glozella took Miraz and Sopespian towards the site of where the bridge is being built and when they arrive they gasped in what they saw. It was their war machines all destroyed meaning their tools of eliminating their enemies has been foiled. Miraz looked at the damages and saw claw marks all over the war machines but then saw something written.

Miraz: "This is a warning, a warning that you and your men will soon fear. You should have never underestimate our strength not even mine. I am coming for you and you better be prepared because now you don't just face the Narnians no you now deal with me The Black Panther, The Protector of Narnia".

Sopespian: The Black Panther? Who is this Black Panther?

Glozella: My men and I found the damages this early morning. I am sorry my lord but all of our war machines are destroyed.

Miraz: All of them?

Glozella: All of them. It would seem our attacker knew what we were bringing to his allies and destroyed them before we even get the chance to take them across the river.

Miraz: I apologize Lord Sopespian. Caspian is not a victim of this savage uprising. He is the instigator. And it would seem we have new enemy, this Black Panther of which he calls himself will meet his fait and pay for what he has done.

Sopespian: But we do not know what he looks like nor what he is capable of. I mean look at the damage here, I don't think a man is capable of doing something like this. General are you sure what the soldier told you was true?

Glozella: From what he said, it was a man dressed in black with the features of cat. Moves within the shadows and strikes down in speed and strength. The soldier and his men couldn't harm their attacker nor pierce him. Honestly I am still trying to see if the reports are true or false.

Miraz: It seems Narnia is in need of a new king. General guard the area if our new friend comes back and tries to destroy the bridge report it to me at once.(Miraz saids and gets on his horse and rides away)

Glozella: As you wish, my lord.

Sopespian: The Black Panther?

Glozella: Order my lord?

Sopespian: Double the guard, have them surround the area of the forest but also keep some close to the bridge.

Glozella: Understood, my lord.

Back with the Elizabeth and Orion, they were taking everyone back to their base. Peter and Caspian were chatting that they need some training grounds since they need to prepare themselves for when Miraz and his armies arrive at any time. Orion was in the back walking side by side with Lucy while also listening to the conversation between Trufflehunter and the two dwarfs.

Trufflhunter: So? What are they like?

Trumpkin: Malcontents, complainers, stubborn as mules in the morning.

Nikabrik: Oh. So you like them, then.

Trumpkin: Well enough.

Black Panther(Orion): We arrived, Lucy.

Lucy: Gasp!

Glenstorm: It's been abandoned for hundreds of years, only the mice know of it's existence.

Elizabeth: Come, everyone is waiting inside.

Elizabeth and her siblings were up in front while Orion and Caspian were in the back. They walked towards the entrance of the base known as Aslan's How and were greeted by the centaurs who held up their swords to present themselves and to welcome back the kings and queens of old. Elizabeth smiled at her friends and proceeded inside with her siblings following behind her. They arrived inside the How and looked to see the Narnians arming themselves and fixing up their weapons to prepare themselves for war.

Caspian: It may not be what you are used to, but it is defensible.

Black Panther(Orion): We also have troops watching the from the borders and top of the place so if anything moves within those trees, they will warn us.

Edmund: Well that's good to know.

Orion smiles and takes off his helmet and cancels out his suit that goes back into the necklace that left the Pevensie's in shock again but looked upon Orion and saw what he looks like. Susan and Lucy whispered to each other at seeing how Orion looked very handsome in which Elizabeth was thinking the same thing after she first met Orion.

Edmund: Is this what you look like?

Orion: Why do you think I was some kind of man-cat underneath this suit?

Edmund: Ummm...you know what forget I said anything.

Elizabeth: Hehehe.

Susan: Peter. You may want to see this.(Susan saids from the path that she was near)

Soon everyone followed Susan into the pathway and they looked to see carvings of themselves from when they first came into Narnia. Elizabeth looked and started to remember the good times and bad from when she and siblings came to Narnia.

Susan: It's us.

Lucy: What is this place?

Caspian: You don't know?

Elizabeth: They've been gone for 1300 years, Caspian. A lot has changed but once we show them they will know.

Lucy: You know this place, Elizabeth?

Elizabeth: I do, and it's something from our past and this place was built around it many years ago. I'll show you, follow me.

They followed Elizabeth down but not before Lucy took one last look at the carving of Mr.Thomas with the lamppost and joining her siblings. Orion knew how much Mr.Thomas meant to Lucy. He then caught up with the others and they arrived in a dark room where it was pitch black but not before Caspian put his torch down and lid up the whole area. They looked around and saw stone carvings of the Narians of the past and then one of Asland in the middle. They stopped and looked towards the front and saw something that they thought they never see again, it was the Stone Table.

Orion(Thought): The Stone Table, the table that cracked before the White Witch stabbed Aslan.

Elizabeth: I think you four known what that is right there.

Susan(Whisper): The stone table...

Lucy walked up the table and remembered what happened the first time she saw this table and it was back when she and her siblings were in Narnia during the time of the White Witch where the witch took a dagger and stabbed Aslan on that same table but came back after words. That same memory still haunts Lucy to this day.

Lucy: He must know what he's doing.

Peter: I think it's up to us now.

Orion went to his quarters to relax for a little while before joining the Narnians for some training. Before he can relax he looked to see Elizabeth entering his quarters.

Elizabeth: Hey.

Orion: Hello. I'm just relaxing for a while before I join the others for some training.

Elizabeth: Understood but my siblings here would want to hear your origin if you don't mind of course.

Orion: Not at all, besides they need to know anyway.

Elizabeth: You can come inside, he's ready to tell you.(Elizabeth saids as her siblings come inside)

Orion: Sit down because this going to be a shocker and you might go speechless.

Edmund: I am sure it can't be that much of shock.

Lucy: He said the same thing to me, we might as well listen to what he saids.

Peter: Just give us the whole story, I am sure we can take it.

Orion: Very well, say I didn't warn you.

4 hours later...

Orion told them his origin and how came to be in Narnia in which he was brought here after he died and was given a new life here in Narnia. He told them that they existed only in books but left the movie part out, he explained to them how he knows them and how they first came into the magical world they helped saved and how they defeated the White Witch long ago. He also said he is from the years 2025 which is eighty years in the future and the war was won and ended in 1945. He explain the changes to his world but some of the things from the past are still around. He also told them about the Black Panther and it's origin that is based off a comic book hero like Captain America. He mentioned God was real and he was given the powers and suit of the Black Panther that he grew up reading about as a child and always dreamt of being that hero for real as well as living in the magical world of Narnia in which he got his wish and was reborn into Narnia to start his new life.

Orion: And that's how I came to be here and to help restore Narnia to his glory.

Peter/Susan/Edmund/Lucy:.......

Elizabeth(Whisper): It would seem it was a lot to take in.

Orion: You got off easy and excepted it.

Edmund: Sooo...you know everything about us?

Orion: All of it. Your history, where you came from, how you came to Narnia, everything.

Susan: And the war was won.

Orion: Indeed, ended in 1945 that's like four years from now since it's 1941 where you are now.

Susan: And on your earth, we only exist in books, like story books?

Orion: Yes, I grew up reading about you four for years and I enjoy the adventures that you go on to save Narnia.

Peter: What about Elizabeth?

Orion: Well you never had a fifth sibling it was only about you four. From what God told me that the Narnia that I was coming to may look the same from the books I have read but there are some differences like the Pevensie's having an older sister who has been in Narnia for nearly 1300 years.

Lucy: What he is like?

Orion: Calm, wise, and very magnificent like Aslan. And yes I do know of Aslan.

Lucy(Thought): Does that mean he knows he's still around!

Peter: And this herb plant you mentioned, it's what gives you your strength and abilities?

Orion: Yes, the heart shaped herb is what gives the strength of The Black Panther. Why you ask? Why do you wanna take it?

Peter: If it helps.

Orion: Well it can but unfortunately I haven't grown any herbs yet, I was given seeds to grow the plants but I have to wait until this war ends.

Edmund: And the outfit you wear its impervious to any type of metal.

Orion: Vibranium is strongest steel in the universe nothing pierce it unless it's more Vibranium. My suit comes with many features such as twin shields, daggers, sonic gauntlets and many more features that you might see.

Elizabeth: I am still amazed of what he can do. No man can run fast nor more with such speed and agility. But I saw it first hand after he saved me and Caspian from those soldiers in the forest.

Orion: And I am using my gifts to help Elizabeth take back Narnia and restore peace throughout the lands. Though with Caspian's help and knowledge of the Telmarines we have a chance. Speaking of Caspian I might as well join him and the others in the training grounds, any of you care to join.

Susan: I'll go, some are the archers could use some lessons.

Elizabeth: I'll join you two as well. Pete? Edmund?

Edmund: I'm good for now but I will come eventually, though I am gonna try to take in all the information that Orion told us.

Orion: Take your time, there's no rush. I know it's a lot to take in and hard to believe. Peter would you care to join us?

Peter: I have something in mind I need think about, thanks for the offer but I am good.

Orion(Thought): He's thinking about that suicide plan of his, raiding the castle. I know how that turned out.

Peter left to think about his plans while the others went out to train together but not before Elizabeth spoke to Orion about what her brother was mentioning.

Elizabeth: He's not seriously going through with that plan of his, is he?

Orion: You and I both know that your brother is gonna do it. Caspian's plan however sounds better and we do have the advantage here in which Susan agreed to it.

Elizabeth: Susan never agreed to anything that Peter does, though I am please that she will choose Caspian's idea.

Orion: And we do have the advantage, while you and the Narnians were gathering weapons for the war I did something to even up the playing field.

Elizabeth: What?

Orion: I destroyed all of the war machines that the Telmarines were gonna use on us. Their catapults, and their large crossbows are destroyed and can never be used. So all we have to deal with are the soldiers. But they will come in numbers.

Elizabeth: Let them come, I have business with them after what they did to my home and my people.

Orion: But I do known we're not gonna be alone in this war, we will have help.

Elizabeth: Who will help us?

Orion: I think we both know who will. He will come back and he will help us. Lucy never stopped believing in him and I know you never did either.

Elizabeth: Aslan.

Orion: Come on, lets go train together and get the other prepared.

Elizabeth: Absolutely and Orion.

Orion: Yes?

Elizabeth: Thank you for saving my life back in the forest 💋.(Elizabeth saids and kisses Orion on the cheek and heads outside)

Orion: Wow only here for a couple days and I already got kissed by a beautiful girl. Coming here was the best idea ever.
