《Telmarines// Edmund Pevensie (#Wattys2016)》Chapter 38 Peter
Advertisement
The soldiers were closing in, and I knew we were outnumbered. Great.
I watched in horror as Orius and a few fauns charged over the well-shielded men, and I wasn't sure what to do. In panic, I turned to face a ugly soldier, whose helmet must've fallen off. With one slice, he fell to the floor and I stabbed the other one charging at me in the stomach.
Everyone kept looking behind me, and in confusion, I turned slowly, making sure no-one was going to attack me.
Yells were heard, and as soon as the sight sunk into my brain, I knew Narnia wanted revenge...
I helped Caspian up from the ditch we had made, and he just stared wonderstruck at the moving trees, their roots used as legs - crushing the enemy as they travelled forward.
" Lucy" I turned to Caspian, knowing Lucy was behind all of this... I swear if I ever doubt her again..
One tree was heard by a large boulder and fell aimlessly to the ground with a large roar...but nothing like Aslan's...and it seemed that I might've been imagining the mighty sound from deep within the forest....but If it was....I don't know anymore..
Whilst this banter was happening in my head, one of the large trees, in anger, charge one of it's longest roots, through the ground, tearing down the structures that were throwing weapons.
With the yells and battle cries from fellow Narnians, I knew there was only one thing left to do...
" FOR ASLANNNNN!" I yelled, as I lead the group, charging, my armour not being able to hold me down anymore. From the corners of my eyes, I could see Caspian on my right, and Edmund and Susan on my left, as we charged in a triangle shape, darting towards the soldiers.

But with every metre we got closer, they were heading towards the trees...Where else would they go?
A loud horn boomed as all of the soldiers retreated further away.
" The river! The river, Pete! They'd be able to get across, we need to stop them!" Edmund shrieked, whilst running.
" TO THE RIVER!" I yelled as a large reply was heard, as we charged through the trees.
" Peter!" A familiar cry was heard and I motioned Caspian to lead the group.
I recognised the cry was from the very back, and saw, quite a while back, was Lucy and another girl I hadn't seen before..
" Peter! Aslan sent me and...oh, this is Tiger-Lily (A/N I KNOW I KNOW, PETER PAN IS AWESOME) yes and he and Rose have gone to the river!" Lucy explained a little out of breath.
" Ok, nice to meet you Tiger-Lily" I smiled, and her eyes sparkled, if that's possible.
" Just Tiger" And this made me grin, as this reminded me of Rose...which just made me remember what Lucy had said.
" Wait, Rose?" I said, I could feel my muscles aching from my rapid change of emotion.
" Yes, she escaped with the help of Tiger, and....." But she seemed to stop as we all turned to see all of the Narnians nearly out of sight.
" Tiger, where are you going?" Lucy asked, as I turned back around to find Tiger had jumped off the horse, and was about to walk off.
" You two need to go, I need to go back home anyway..." Tiger smiled, as she glanced my way.
" Do you have to go" I blurted out and she stopped.
" Don't worry...i'll be back for Caspian' coronation"
Wait WHAT.
" Bye, High-King" She whispered, and as if he had magical powers she shot off into the trees.
" Wo-" I was rudely interrupted my the tug of my hair.
" Come on!" Lucy yelled as I hurled myself onto the tall horse (it was very tall)., and we raced quickly after the others.

The Necromancer in Magic School
"Magic cannot create life." This is one of the most basic tenets of magic. And yet, when Professor Adelyn Mackenzie investigates rumours of a talented prospective student in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she finds that he has managed to create the world's first living homunculus. "Magic is miracle given form." That is what Cadmus Guiles' sister always said. So, when she died, it was only natural for Cadmus to believe that he could bring her back to life through magic. Now, offered the resources he needs to pursue this path of research, Cadmus gladly accepts to go to the most distinguished school of magic on the continent: The Laurucian Academy of Magic. However, the Academy is a place of intense competition, and only those who rise to the top may recieve the services and resources that the Academy has to offer. Cadmus believes that he can easily defeat his peers due to him already having broken one of magic's most basic tenets, but it's time for him to learn that talent comes in many different forms...

8 282Swords and Roses
Rose was pretty sure the only thing out of the ordinary about her best friend, Kaz, is that he has an uncanny ability to annoy her. She was wrong. Actually, she was wrong about a lot of things. As it turns out, Kaz is not bad with a sword. In fact, "not bad" is probably an understatement. Apparently, there is a whole second world out there, one run by wielders of the blade. Will Rose be able to survive? Maybe, just maybe, she will find out that she is even stronger than she imagined. Or maybe she'll die. That could happen too. Arguably more likely. With that wonderful thought, let the sword fighting begin!

8 124Let Me Explore The Interstellar in Peace
Her third life began unlike her last two. From an ancient battle field to the magical interstellar, Ciel was finally going to live her life how she wanted to: freely exploring the new world. But she'll soon find that a brewing war between galaxies won't let her rest easy. He awoke to find himself one thousand years in the future, but the first thing on his mind wasn't the new technology around him. It was the woman he'd seen die in the battlefield just days before. Her, the prince of the interstellar and he, their genius. What will happen when they cross paths? Updates: Expect updates at least once a week. A/N: The first three chapters are set in an ancient setting and then after that it's interstellar, so some patience is required. Does this novel have comedy? Yes. But that's not the main part. What went into the cauldron of whatever this novel is was angst, age progression, and Technoids. I like to kill off my characters, but I also don't. So come check this out if you want redemption arcs, an MC who travels through death, and cool fighting robots controlled by people. We have friendship, romance, and random drama, so buckle up and have fun.
