    Taking plot a year before the events of Prince Caspian: Return to Narnia, our story follows sixteen year old Alexandria Barton, seventeen year old Elizabeth Coburn, seventeen year old Luke Reed, and sixteen year old William Barton. Respectfully, they attend the same schools as the Pevensies. The four are very good friends and spend most of their time together.
    One day, while walking towards their homes together, the four experienced an odd feeling when they passed under the archway to Alexandria and William’s house (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3203/2856155811_6ae7fa5817.jpg?v=0). The next thing the four companions knew, they were in an unknown forest with no sight of home.

    TOP ORIGINAL CHARACTERS:
    Alexandria (Alex) Barton (16) [Garxena] – She enjoys reading, singing, and horses. When she’s not with her friends and twin brother, she’s studying up on a variety of subjects. Her interest in mythical beings often gets her in a hotspot in the classroom. When she decides to do something, she won’t stop until it’s done. Tired of her long, black hair constantly falling in her face, she cut it down to her shoulders, and usually keeps it in a loose ponytail. Her bright blue eyes are “more lovely than the sky” according to Luke. Alexandria and Elizabeth are said to be “joined at the hip” and can usually be found with the other if gone missing.

    Elizabeth (Liz) Coburn (17) [Princess_of_hearts] - She enjoys drawing, debates, and science. She prides herself in finding the answer to every puzzle presented to her. Her milk chocolate brown hair falls in waves to the middle of her back, contrasting her darker brown eyes. Elizabeth keeps to herself and her friends during school hours, but tends to open up once she's away from a large crowd of people. During debates, she looks above the heads of the crowd to avoid her stage fright.

    Luke Reed (17) [mrsbaggins] - He enjoys extracurricular activities such as archery, and football (known in the USA as soccer). He has stunningly bright blue eyes and slightly long black hair that curls at the end, just brushing his shoulders. Though William does not approve of it, Luke has, what he calls, the jitters for Alexandria. He keeps his distance so as not to upset his best friend. He also finds a great deal of interest in breaking the rules; the excitement of going against the norm, of making things his own way, makes him absolutely giddy.
    “Rules don’t apply to me,” he once said to his coach. But Alexandria does not approve of this attitude and has often told Luke that most rules are for safety and should be obeyed. He, however, has never listened to little speeches such as that. Luke lives by his own rules and is a very sore loser. If something is against the rules, but will benefit him, he'll forsake the rules and do what he wants to.

    William (Will) Barton (16) [AxEL0220]- He enjoys spending time with his best friend Luke. He keeps his black hair very short and his blue eyes are often covered by sunglasses. He is kind and can usually been seen helping someone. He likes to keep an eye on his sister and also keeps her in line. He's her calming factor when she gets into heated arguments. He enjoys doing experiments in the school lab when he has some free time. He'll often bore everyone by going off on rants of his results. Always having a good intention, William is a major pacifist. He hates the war just as much as everyone else, but with some extra reasons.

    INTRODUCTION:
    “It started out as a feeling,
    Which then grew into a hope,
    Which then turned into a quiet thought,
    Which then turned into a quiet word.
    And then that word grew louder and louder
    Till it was a battle cry.
    I’ll come back when you call me.
    No need to say good-bye.”

    “Alex, you’ve been singing those lyrics for days now,” William complained.
    “I can’t help it,” Alexandria answered. “I like them.”
    “And we don’t mind when you sing them. Right, Will?” Luke spoke up, ruffling his friend’s hair.
    “Calm down, you two,” Elizabeth laughed, walking backwards in front of the other three. “Let’s hear the rest of it, Alex.”
    Alexandria smiled and continued:
    “Just because everything’s changing
    Doesn’t mean it’s never been this way before.
    All you can do is to know who your friends are
    As you head off to the war.
    Pick a star on the dark horizon
    And follow the light.
    You’ll come back when it’s over
    No need to say good-bye.
    You’ll come back when it’s over
    No need-”

    “Hey!” William cut her off and pointed ahead, causing Elizabeth to turn around to see what had caused the distraction and the others to halt.
    “Planes....” Luke breathed the word.
    The four looked at each other in fear; war planes had come over their city. They broke into a run at the same time, heading for the twin’s house since it was the closest. The ground shook as the bombs connected with the ground. Unbeknownst to each other, they were all wishing they were somewhere else, somewhere away from the war.
    They hurried through the front doorway, for once not stopping to look at the intricate carvings above the archway..., and stumbled over branches and leaves on the other side of it. None of them could make any sense of what just happened, but they knew that they were no longer where they considered to be home. Each was silent as they looked around. Finally they all met eyes.
    “What do you supposed just happened?” Alexandria asked, not sure whether to be excited or scared.
    “I don’t really know,” Luke responded. “We just… walked through the doorway.”
    “We need to find someone,” Elizabeth said matter-of-factly. “Either we’re impossibly all having the same dream, or we really did just walk though a doorway together to get… wherever we are now.”
    “Let’s just… go with it,” Alexandria smiled as she started to wander further into the forest.
    “Alex!” William called after his twin. He figured she had her mind set on exploring this place, so there wasn’t much to do to stop her, short of tackling her and holding her down. He gave the other two of the four a little nod in Alexandria’s direction and hurried off after her.
    “I think this’ll be fun,” Luke laughed, hearing Elizabeth sigh as she followed them into the forest.

    OOC: HERE WE GOOOOO!!!

    Luke followed Elizabeth and Alex, still smiling to himself.

    "There's no one here," he began after a minute. "Do you think we'll find anyone to speak to?"

    "If there's no one here, how can we find anyone to speak to?" Elizabeth pointed out. She looked around at the forest, carefully, trying to figure out where they were.

    "You should speak with Alex," Luke said as they walked. "She's the one 'in charge.'"

    "I wonder where we are," Alexandria mumbled, running her hand along the tree trunks that she passed.

    "Alex," William reached out a hand and grabbed her shoulder. "Should we really be wandering off?"

    "Why not?" Alexandria challenged. "There's no one here. It's not like we'll get into trouble."
