I was sad I hadn't really gotten to know Peter better. From what I saw, how he interacted with everybody, he was a wonderful person who didn't deserve to die.

I just walked along in silence. Suddenly, I remembered what he had told me about what to do if he died. I stopped short.
"Guys..." I said slowly.

"What?" I asked, softly, looking at her.

"I've got to go. Home. Back to England. He told me that if he died, he wanted his body taken back to England for Mum and Dad and Susan. I have to leave Narnia. I have to do as he wished." I looked up at the sky. The only way I knew to get back home was back through the wardrobe. Unless Aslan decided to help us and take us home for Peter.
Aslan.
Where was the great lion? Where was he when he let us take on the giants alone? Why did he allow one of his most loyal and faithful followers to be slain, helpless and alone? Why did he take him from me, who loved him so? Why did he take him before Lil could even let him know how she loved him? Why did he take him from us when he was so young and strong and brave? He did nothing wrong. What lesson was the great creator trying to get across by taking one of his own? These thoughts turned to anger. How could he?! How dare he?!?! He said he would always be there for us. Yeah right.

I just stood there. "Oh," I finally said, shocked.

"You know I can't refuse," I said softly. "He did so much for me, and this is all he ever asked for."

I nodded, "I know," I practically whispered.

I nodded slowly. I didn't even want to think about burying him. Thinking about it made this all seem too real and I was still in denial about him being gone.

"We've got to get to the wardrobe. Then Ed and I can...take him home." My voice broke at the thought of Mum and Dad and Susan, who hadn't even gotten to say goodbye to him. I thought I didn't have any more tears to shed, but apparently I did.

I walked over and gave her a hug.

"He can't be gone," I sobbed.

I couldn't really come up with something to say to her at the moment. I did know that I sure wasn't going to tell her everything was going to be okay since I didn't know for a fact if it was.

"Sorry," I muttered quietly.

"For what?"

I shrugged. "My emotional issues," I choked out.
