A Long Way from Home

Hello! If you've stumbled across this, whether from lurking or just curiosity (Especially if you're that Aunt of mine who loves lurking), you're probably wondering what it is. Well, I'll tell you. This is the early beginnings of a fanfiction I'm writing, crossing themes from both C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, and the Television show "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic". Sound like a really stupid idea? Not so much. The two stories will mesh in a surprisingly good way, and through that meshing, I plan to take the story in such a way that it will affect the reader for good. So follow me, as someone very familiar to
the Narnia series discovers the things she's forgotten, in a tale of love and forgiveness.

Characters:

Cameron Bradsher



Susan Bradsher



Henry Bradsher
Age:14

Right before his father and mother separated, Henry's father took him aside and told him he was to be the man of the family in the years to come. Henry takes this role solemnly and seriously, seeking to take care of his younger siblings to the best of his ability, and to be a strong son his mother can count on. At his young age, it's a big standard for him to live up to. More often than not, he comes off as bossy and pretentious, much to the chagrin of his younger brother Richard. Henry struggles in school, trying to keep ahead in his classes, while dealing with the trouble at home.

Richard Bradsher
Age: 10

Richard is the kind of kid who is stand-offish and a bit gruff. He can have a great time with his friends, joking around, laughing, and pulling pranks, but that's when he has friends. His snarky and unapproachable nature stops him from making many friends, and he is bullied and teased a lot in his new school. To make it worse, he deals with his problems by sulking around, and taking it out on the others around him. Essentially, he makes the source of his problem worse by his bad behavior about it.

Amy Bradsher
Age:8
