Back on the ship I waited on the poop deck for Edmund and Caspian to return with my cousin. I know he's beyond annoying and useless. I also know i've been nothing but unwelcoming and mean but he doesn't deserve anything what so far the Lords have been through. There was loud roaring coming from the Island.
"what was that" Lu asked Drinian i saw fire come out
"is it the volcano" Gael questioned scared holding onto my waist in fright. I held onto her as well.
"that's no volcano" he replied going down onto the deck "all arms on deck there" he ordered and then we saw something impossible coming from the island
"Archers arm yourselves" It was a dragon a real fire breathing dragon
"ready on my command" it landed on the mast
"what's it doing?" Lucy questioned ducking down like the rest of us.
"its going to brake the mast!" I yell. It would if it stayed there any longer.
"fire" the shot arrows at it and it missed but some hit it looked at us and i could see a emotion.
"hold your fire" i shouted the dragon flew away and the shot at it. "i said hold your fire" i screamed the stopped and looked up at me i saw the dragon came back and this time it was holding Edmund
"Edmund! Edmund!" Lucy yelled
"Lucy!" he yelled back
"Drinian we need a long boat now. Tavros, Reep, Lucy and Michael your with me we're going back." I then crouched down to Gael. "Go back to the room okay and stay there until I come and get you." she nodded and ran off.
"man the long boat" Drinian ordered. We rowed back to the Island and i jumped off Edmund was there with the dragon.
"what happened" i breathed
"The Dragon is Eustace" Edmund informed us as i walked up to him.
"that's why i saw the fear in your eyes. Oh Eustace i'm sorry" he groaned moving about and putting his head down.
"he must have been tempted by the treasure" I say feeling sorry for the boy.
"well everyone knows dragon's treasure is enchanted" Caspian stated Eustace growled
"not helpful Cas" i looked back and him giving a small scowl.
"well anyone from here" i reached out my hands and he gave me his claw with the bracelet i pulled it off and stepped back as he growled in pain.
"is there anyway to change him back" Ed asked i threw the bracelet away to the side.
"Not that i know of" Eustace huffed in frustration
"Aunt Alberta will not be pleased" Edmund commented
"no really" i faked gasped then slapped his arm the shook my head. He was annoying but not even I would wish this upon him.
"sorry about the hand old boy. I can be a little overzealous at times" Reep apologised
"understatement of the century" I muttered looking away like I hadn't said anything.
"the boats are ready sire" Tavors called
"we can't leave him alone" Lu made a point
"well we can't bring him on board" Drinian also pointed out i sighed and looked at Caspian then to our Captain.
"Drinian you take one boat back the rest of us will stay here till morning and work out what to do." i declared
"but you've no previsions and no means of staying warm your majesty" Michael states. Eustace breathed fire on a piece of wood.
"ah you were saying" we laughed and they took one boat back.
"i'll start collecting some wood" i offered starting to walk away.
"i'll help" Ed also offered we left to go find some wood
"so is it true then. your pregnant" he made conversation. As we started picking up some of the scattered wood that was lying around.
"might be. It feels like i am from the stories that mum told us" i collected kindle as well
"and how do you feel about that" he wondered stopping us from what we were doing so that I could face him.
"terrified. cause there is a chance i'll have no one but Caspian to get me through it. You know back home I dreamed that I would marry and start a family. Mum, Susan and Lucy would be there to help me. You and Peter becoming Uncles now that would be funny." i laughed
"It turns out i'll get half the dream. At least its better than nothing" I shrugged accepting the matter since there was nothing I could really do about it. I was lucky that I could continue with my life here, even if it meant being separated from my siblings and parents.
"you miss us?" he wondered
"every single day. But i carry on, cause i have Caspian, Yet there are moments like now where i wish i had all of you." I admitted to him feeling the tears rise but not fall. I blinked them quickly away.
"We all miss you its weird not having you around. Scolding us for our comments slapping our head or kicking our butt if we lied. Just not seeing you. It was hard when we went back. Dad phoned the school and we were sent back. Peter was the worse didn't come out of his room for days" he told me.
"he wasn't the only one, you try having a twin and being separated from them forever" I reply thinking back to how I was. I then went to continue picking up more firewood and kindling.
"do you wish you could go back?" i stopped
"don't get me wrong i love Caspian with every fibre of my being and i love it here. But its hard being away from your blood, the one's you grew up with shared ups and downs. Everyday is a fight not to fall back into depression and Caspian knows this, i know he does. He knows that no matter what a part of me will always want to be with the four of you. He wants to make me happy but the one thing i want most in the world he can't give me because its bigger than him. So in answer to your question yes a part of me would like to go back but i can't and that's just the way it is." i cried he put the wood down and hugged me
.
"You are so brave Izzy you know that" i laughed
"yeah i get told alot" i wiped my tears and rubbed my face
"come on i think we have enough wood" we made our way back to camp and Eustace set the fire. i grabbed a blanked and said goodnight before falling asleep.
