The one where the Pevensies and the others break back into Narnia and take the world on their own terms. I don't know that you can do it without making Aslan into a villain, which would cause a great many people to pillory you in the square . . . but the thought of them becoming active agents in the fantasy, as adults instead of children, makes me go squishy inside. I think this is very much what Philip Pullman was attempting to do, but he seemed to get caught a bit along the way.
I'd love to read a novel/fanfic that dealt with that.
(I'd also love to know what the Emperor Over the Sea thinks of Aslan's stewardship of Narnia. I'd love to see something dealing with Aslan being his Son in more of a Greek/Roman pantheon sort of way, rather than... I dunno - does Lewis intend them to be 2 persons of the Trinity in Narnia? I've never worked it out.)
