Helloooo, everyone! Because of the Super-Duper Fan Fiction Crossover Challenge (What a mouthful. SDFFCC?), I decided I should write a quick crossover as an example. And because the idea randomly came to mind. So this is a Captain America/Chronicles of Narnia crossover, inspired by the fact that both Steve and Mr. Pevensie (we believe) fought in World War II. Note that there is no quote used here, as I didn’t do it for the challenge, and the quote is not required. Enjoy!!!! š
Steve let the book fall down into his lap as he stared off into space. It couldnāt be. Could it? He glanced down at the page. He wouldnāt have thought anything of it until he saw the last name. Could this actually be real?
He hated seeing people go down. Friends, acquaintances, even people he didnāt know. All of them had families, loved ones, children waiting for them to come home. But he always would go to the medical tents after a big battle and encourage the men there. It was his way of giving back.
Today, there was another man helping him. He told the wounded men about his kids, funny things they had done, stories theyād made up. He made them smile ā some even managed to laugh. He and Steve left together, and Steve noticed the manās eyes filling as they left.
Steve made him stop. āAre you okay?ā
The man shook his head. āThat could be me in there. Sometime before this war is over, I probably will be in there, if I donāt die right away.ā
Steve put a hand on the manās arm. āYou shouldn’t think like thatā¦ā He paused, not knowing the manās name.
āPevensie,ā the man said. He looked at Steve. āYouāre Steve Rogers, of course.ā
Steve gave a small smile. āYes.ā
Pevensie stuck his hand in his pocket and pulled out a thick envelope. āIāve been looking for someone trustworthy to give this to, and I canāt think of a better man than you. Could you make sure this gets to my children? There are letters for each of them in there, and one for my wife, Helen, too.ā
Steve nodded. āIād be glad to, sir. What are your childrenās names?ā
āPeter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy,ā Pevensie said. āMy wife said the children were evacuated to the country, staying at a professorās house.ā
Steve gave his shoulder a reassuring squeeze. āYou can count on me, Pevensie.ā
Pevensie.
Steve looked down at the book. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy. Pevensie. Staying at a professorās house. Professor Kirk. Could it be true? Could there really be a magic wardrobe? Another world?
He didnāt know what had become of the letter. Heād never had a chance to mail it or hand it over to anyone. Heād had it with him during the crash. It mustāve been so waterlogged that someone threw it out. Either that, orā¦ could SHIELD still have it somewhere?
He wouldnāt have even given it a chance if he didnāt know about Thor. If Asgard was real, why not Narnia?
So as you can see, the story doesn’t have to be long, and it can involve any connection. š Stay tuned for a Word War announcement for Monday. After all, it’s a holiday, we should take advantage of it! š
