Laura's Story
This is a Story based on The Chronicles of Narnia. It is a diary of a girl who....well I won't tell you, you have to read it to find out!!
Day 1 of the war-
This is the only record of this war. TREAT it with care. Do not show it to any strangers. And never, EVER, show it to King Caspian.
My name is Queen Laura of Narnia. I am 17 years old. I should start by telling you how an English girl got to a world like this.
It was the year 1948 when I started this adventure. When I lived in England, I had no parents. I lived in an orphanage with 20 other girls. We were on our yearly trip to the countryside. This time we were going to an old professor’s house that was filled with many historical artifacts, paintings and books. The Professor’s name was Professor Kirke and he was a very kind old man. We went by many rooms and hallways until it was time to take a break. A girl my named Mary (who was very mean to me) went up to me and said,
“I saw a spare room with a very big wardrobe. The wardrobe itself is very big. I dare you to go all the way to the back of the wardrobe then come back to me. And if you don’t I will tell everyone that you are scared of the dark and that you are a big baby!”
Mary dares me all the time to do things that was against the rules so that I would get in trouble. I would try to tell them that I was dared to but Mary would all ways say that I was a big liar. That beastly girl! She would not survive a day here in Narnia! Well anyway, I said I would not do it but she keep pushing me a pushing me to do it so I finally agreed so she would get off my back. When no one was looking we slipped away from the group. It took a while to find the spare room but we finally found it. The room was empty excepted for the wardrobe. The wardrobe itself was a magnificent piece of furniture. Carved in the wood were trees and a lion.
“Well then, go on,” said Mary “I’m waiting”.
I opened the door and a few mothballs tumbled out. In the wardrobe were a bunch of fur coats. I walked through the wardrobe and looked for the back. We I was least expected I felt a prick on my hand. Then I felt soft grass under my feet. I took a few more steps and I was surrounded by a forest. I stared in wonder as walk through a vast wood. Then I saw the oddest thing. I few meters away from me were a lamppost shining bright. Then I heard something behind me. I turn around and saw a bear. I screamed since I did not know that bears in Narnia were very friendly. But the bear just stood there with a blank expression on its face.
“You are a strange girl,” said the bear in a very deep voice.” What is your name?”
“L-Laura” I shuddered
“Laura. Well that’s a pretty name! Where did you come from” said the bear
“I came through a wardrobe in the spare room. But where am I?” I said, still nervous
“Spare-Om? War-drobe?” he said very excitedly
“Yes, but where am I?” I replied.
“You are in Narnia!” he said with a smile
“Narnia? Do all animals talk in Narnia?” I asked
“Most of us” he answers “Now come. It is getting cold. I will take you to my cave to warm up. Then I will take you to the king. He will want to know about you.”
It was getting cold outside so I decided to follow him. He took me through the woods to a small, earthy cave. Inside the cave was a table with two stools and a table cloth. There was also a pile of blankets and some sort of pillows. On the side of the cave were a fireplace, stove and some cabinets.
“Would you like something to eat?” said the bear.
“Yes, please” I reply. I was very hungry even though I just had a snack at the professor house.
“We will have fish and chips. Now please warm up by the fire. You look cold”
We had a very pleasant evening. The fish was freshly caught and it tasted better than any fish in England. He told me the old stories of Narnia. The bear told me about Aslan and the four kings and queens of old. He told me about the recent battle. The only thing I remember him saying is this-
“I am going to take you to King Caspian tomorrow” he said to me.
“But why would the king want to do with me?” I ask
“Well you are not from Narnia or any country surrounding it. When Queen Lucy came into Narnia, she mentioned Spare-Om and War-drobe.” He said plainly.
I slept on some blankets that almost ruined by back but I was fine in the end. We woke up early and ate a quick breakfast. Then we headed out to a small village called Beavers Dam. He bought me a red dress and a gray cloak to wear to the king’s palace. Then we ventured out to Cair Paravel.
This is the only record of this war. TREAT it with care. Do not show it to any strangers. And never, EVER, show it to King Caspian.
