Prolog

A/N: This is mostly based off of the movies because I really cant remember the books. I haven't read them in a long time. And most of this chapter is right out of the movie, so it really isn't mine.

They never spoke of it. What was the point? Everyone knew that they would never see her again, never see the chaos she caused. Never see the way she looked at Peter one moment, only to turn away to Edmund the next.

Why speak of it?

The last few years of the Golden Years weren't as golden as they seemed. There was an ongoing battle inside the castle, a battle most knew not of. And it was between the two Kings of Old. High King Peter, the Magnificent, and King Edmund, the Just.

But now they were back in England. What was the point of dwelling on the past? Neither of them would ever see her again anyway.

Or so they thought.

Edmund was in the train station when he heard the commotion. He smirked slightly. Just some other guy, getting in as fight.

He pushed his way towards the middle of the group of children, where he saw his sisters, then froze when he looked to see who was fighting. Peter.

Edmund took in the situation quickly. It was two against one, and Peter was losing. Badly. Edmund didn't even think about it, he just threw all of his things down and pushed the crowd aside to help his brother. "Edmund!" He heard Lucy yell.

He ignored her and tackled the guy that was coming after Peter. He heard a whistle blow only a moment later and found himself being pulled away. "Act your age." The man growled at Peter.

Edmund smirked slightly at the glare on Peters face. He still thought of himself as a king, but he wasn't. Not in England anyway.

Edmund grabbed his things and went to sit on the bench, waiting for the train. "You're welcome." He said to Peter.

"I had it sorted." Peter snapped. Edmund rolled his eyes.

Susan and Peter started arguing, then Susan said something about pretending to talk to her. Edmund rolled his eyes once again. "Uh, we ARE talking to you."

Susan glared, but Lucy jumped up from her seat before she could say anything. "OW!"

"Quit Lu." Susan snapped, glancing over her shoulder.

"Something pinched me!"

"Stop!" Peter snapped.

"I'm not touching you!" Edmund protested.

Suddenly a huge wind rushed around the four children. "What is this?!"

"It feels like magic." Lucy answered, a huge smile plastered on her face.

"Everyone hold hands!" Susan ordered.

"I'm not holding your hand!" Edmund snapped. Peter grabbed his hand anyway.

Then they were transported back to Narnia.

"I don't remember in ruins in Narnia." Edmund said, glancing up at the ruins before him. His brother and sisters followed his gaze, and all four stood still, staring before them.

Peter started out of the water first, followed by Lucy, then Susan, then finally, Edmund. They all made their way up the cliffs, then started wandering separately around the ruins.

This all looks so familiar.

"I wonder who lived here." Lucy's voice drifted.

"I think we did." Susan said a moment later.

Edmund frowned slightly, then walked down to where his sisters were standing. He looked at what Susan held in her hand and frowned. "Hey, that's a piece from my chess set."

"Which chess set?" Peter asked, coming up beside them.

Edmund scowled. "Well, I didn't exactly have a solid gold chess set in Finchley, did I?"

"It can't be." Lucy said, running.

Edmund looked at Peter and Susan, and then they all went running after her. Then Edmund saw what Lucy had seen. It couldn't be…

"Cair Paraval." Peter whispered.

Edmund got off the platform quickly and started wandering. How did this happen? And what happened to her?

He knelt down and frowned at the marks on the grass. They had been attacked.

Peter and Edmund opened the door to the treasure room, and everyone made their way down stairs. Edmund immediately went over and opened his chest. He took out his sword, then helmet, and was reaching for a tunic when he felt something small. He frowned slightly and pulled.

In his palm was silver ring with a jewel in the middle, the ring was on a silver chain. Edmund blinked away sudden tears and quickly slipped the chain around his neck and under his shirt. Then he started to remember….
