Everyone was gathered around the room that the cracked Stone Table was in as they watched Peter, and Sokka sword fight. It was a pretty even match, and finally the matched ended when both swords clicked together ending the match.
Peter moved his sword and placed it back on his hip. "You're good Sokka." He nodded.
Sokka just stood there for a minute, then collected himself together. "I have a pretty good master back home who taught me well."
"What about you Katara?" Lucy asked as she, and Katara sat on the Stone Table. "Do you fight with a sword?"
Katara smiled. "No. I'm just a water bender, I can do lots of things with my ability."
"Yeah like turning my feet to ice." Sokka retorted.
"In the beginning I had some problems controlling my ability." Katara admitted. "I've turned Sokka into ice more then once."
Sokka folded his arms. "Try a hundred. And the water a hundred times too."
"I got better in time and my waterbending improved." Katara said. "I'm now a waterbending master. And I can fight as good as the rest of you with my ability."
"Ok." Peter decided to move on to more important matters right now. "We need to focus on Miraz right now."
Sokka looked at him. "You have a plan Pete?"
Peter nodded. "Yeah." He looked around. "It's only a matter of time. Miraz's men and war machines are on their way. That means those same men aren't protecting his castle."
Sokka rubbed his hands together. "I like where this is going."
"What do you propose we do, you Majesty?" Reepicheep asked Peter.
"To start planning for."- Began Peter.
"We need to get for it." – Began Caspian at the same time.
Both looked at each other for a minute, then Caspian looked to the floor.
"Our only hope is to strike them before they strike us." Peter continued with confidence.
"Crazy. No one has ever taken that castle." Caspian argued.
"There's always a first time." Peter continued to be confident.
"Ambush!" Sokka cheered, throwing his fists into the air. "Perfect Peter! I'm with you!"
"We'll have the element of surprise." Added Trumpkin agreeing with Peter, and Sokka.
"But we have the advantage here!" Caspian argued, he did not like this plan of attack.
"If we dig in, we could probably hold them off indefinitely." Susan said, siding with Caspian, and Peter did not look too happy about.
"I, for one, feel safer underground." Said Trufflehunter.
Peter turned his attention back to Caspian. "Look, I appreciate what you've done here, but this isn't a fortress. It's a tomb."
"Yes. And if they're smart enough the Telmarines will just wait and starve us out." Edmund sided with his brother.
"We could collect nuts!" Said a hyperactive squirrel.
"Yes!" Reepicheep then sarcastically added. "And throw them at the Telmarines." Everyone looked at them, and Reepicheep turned to the squirrel. "Shut up!" He turned back to Peter. "I think you know where I stand, sire."
Peter turned to Glenstorm. "If I get your troops in, can you handle the guards?"
"Or die trying, my liege." Answered Glenstorm.
"That's what I'm worried about."
Everyone turned their attention to Lucy.
"Sorry?" Asked Peter.
"Your all acting like there's only two options: dying here … or dying there." Lucy continued.
"There might be a better chance at survival if we think about more options." Katara sided with Lucy.
"Time is not on our side here sis." Sokka argued.
"I'm not sure you girls have been listening." Peter said.
"No, you're not listening! Or have you forgotten who really defeated the White Witch, Peter?" Lucy defended herself.
Once again Peter did not look happy. "I think we've waited for Aslan long enough." With that he turned and walked out of the room. Everyone then walked off, getting ready for tonight.
"Wow." Sokka muttered when he, and Katara walked over to Edmund. "What crawled up Peter's butt and died? And who does he think he is?"
"It's a very long and complicated story." Edmund replied. "But he is the High King."
"Well, I think his crown is too tight around his head." Sokka said as the three walked out.
Once outside, Peter looked at the Narnia army. "Everyone ready?"
"Let's do this thing." Sokka nodded.
"We have one shot for this to work." Katara added.
Peter turned back around to face the front. "For Narnia!" He shouted, and the Griffins took to the sky with Peter, Edmund, Katara, and Sokka as the ground army ran.
