Hi everybody! I'm so excited to finally be a part of the fanfiction community! This is going to be the start of one of my first of (hopefully many) fanfiction stories. Just to warn you, I'm kind of obsessed with "The Chronicles of Narnia", specifically the stories involving the Pevensie children (especially Edmund). Needless to say, this will probably be the topic of most of my stories. Well, it's time to stop my intro and start my story, here we go!

"Come on Peter, it's just a ride with Philip."

"Ed there's no way I'm letting you wander off into the woods without an escort of guards."

"Did you ever think the guards might draw even more attention to me than if I went myself?"

"I'm not about to almost lose you again Ed!"

Peter was trying to control his temper, but he was also trying to control his fear and sadness. The Pevensies had only been six months into their rule and feelings of Edmund almost dying still lingered in Peter's heart. His mum had told him to keep his family safe, and he'd almost failed, but he swore he wouldn't take any chances ever again. Peter turned as Susan entered the room.

"I heard shouting down the hall. What are you two arguing over now?" Susan asked.

"Peter won't let get some fresh air, in my own domain no less, without an army of guards!"

"Su, you know it's not an army, and I'm only trying to protect him."

"Peter, can I have a word with you?" Susan asked.

Peter reluctantly followed Susan into the hall while Edmund stared daggers at his back before the door closed. Susan had noticed Peter's overprotectiveness for Edmund lately, and she had a feel that she needed to protect Edmund too, but she also felt that Peter was going a little too far.

"Peter, I think you should let him go."

"Oh, so now you're siding with him!"

"But, Peter I know you're only trying to protect him, but Ed can handle himself."

Peter gave this some thought, and finally he decided to take his sister's advice. He had to admit that he'd been a little too overprotective lately.

"Ed, Su and I have talked about it, and you can go on a ride with Philip."

"Yes! Thank you Su!"

"But, we have some rules, you must be home before dark, and you must take your sword." Peter cautioned.

"Okay, I promise…"

"Wait!"

Susan ran out of the room and came back with her ivory horn from Father Christmas. The horn would alert anyone if you were ever in trouble and help would surely come. Edmund knew why she went to get it.

"Edmund, take my horn with you and if you run into trouble don't forget to blow it."

"I promise Su, and Peter, if I don't come back in time feel free to send your army of guards to come and get me."

"Get out of here, squirt before I change my mind!"

As Peter and Susan watched Edmund and Philip gallop away from the stables, Peter couldn't help but feel he was still doing the wrong thing. But Su continued to reassure him again and again that this would be good for both him and Edmund. He still couldn't shake the feeling of looming danger.

And that's the end of chapter one. Whoo! And I not only hope that you liked my story but that you also will review my story, and maybe even suggest some plot changes. Next, chapter will be more in the perspective of Edmund instead of Peter and their perspectives will probably go back and forth a lot. So… Bye! And get ready for chapter two.
