Previously…
As the door was opening, they heard the Narnians coming; this gave them the adrenalin rush knowing that help was on the way. When the Narnians ran through the door and started to attack the Telmarines, they stopped turning the wheel and turned around to fight…The three started to run and at the same time screamed at the top of their lungs…
FOR NARNIA!
This was going to be one of the greatest battles that Narnia will ever face…
Within minutes, swords were clashing together, arrows were flying above everyone's heads, and screams were so loud they could be heard all over the castle. More Telmarines came into the battle, but the Narnians still held strong. Edmund was stuck in the towers, trying to find a way down without getting noticed, or killed by Telmarines. He was looking over a roof, and saw a Telmarine aiming their crossbow at Peter. He reacted quickly and slid down the roof hitting him, falling to the ground below.
Peter saw this and screamed.
"ED!"
Edmund turned around and saw a line of Telmarines armed with crossbows, aimed right at him. He ran towards the closest door that he could go to and quickly closed the door, letting all the arrows hit the door, just in time.
More Narnians were dying, and more Telmarines were appearing out of nowhere, Peter looked around and saw Narnians falling off towers, hitting their heads on the ground and not getting up. He hated seeing people he loved in the face of danger, especially Susan and Edmund.
Within minutes, the ground was filling up with bodies. Susan was looking around, seeing all these Telmarines with crossbows all around the walls. She quickly ran to Peter telling him what was wrong. Everyone was doing to die if they didn't act quick. They had to fall back, quickly.
"FALL BACK! We need to get out of here now!"
All the Narnians starting running for the gate, but Miraz ordered the gate to close. As it was starting to close, one of the minotaurs quickly dropped his weapon and held the gate, with all his strength. Miraz saw this and immediately ordered the crossbow men to shoot, at the minotaur. As an arrow dug into his armour, he yelled of pain, but was still holding the gate, trying to let as many Narnians come through as possible. He knew he was going to die, so he did all he could to help his friends. More arrows pierced into his body, but he still held the gate. His face was too painful to look at; Peter just went under the gate. That's went the arrows took its toll. The minotaur fell to the floor, with the gate crushing his armour.
The Narnians tried to get through the gate, but only the mice were small enough to do this. The rest were dying, by the arrows released by the cross bows. They all screamed of pain and help. Peter was on the other side and couldn't believe his eyes. For the first time in a long time, he began to cry, everyone was. How am I going to tell Lucy?
"Peter the bridge!"
Peter's horse started to gallop. Luckily, Peter was skilled with horses and managed to get over the bridge. He couldn't look back, no one could, they were all heart broken.
A few seconds later, Edmund was flying over the castle and saw the dead bodies of Narnians. He was speechless; it felt like someone ripped his heart out, cut it in two and threw one half away. How am I going to tell Lucy? He saw Peter and the rest of the army; it was more than half the size it was before the raid. Nothing could get any worse…
Lucy was sitting on one of the stairs of the stone table. While Michelle was lying on the floor, sleeping. But Lucy couldn't sleep, not knowing that his three siblings could have died, along with many of the Narnians. She heard a faint horn and shook Michelle awake. It took Michelle a few minutes to get up. But when she heard the horn, she knew the army was coming. The two girls started walking up the entrance of the Aslan's How. They saw the Narnian army, along with his siblings and Caspian, but the army was so much smaller then it was when it left Aslan's How. This made both of the girls' heart sink, they couldn't believe it.
"Peter, what happened?"
"Ask Caspian"
He said this in a very harsh tone, like it was his entire fault. Susan didn't like Peter like this, no one did. She tried to stop the conversation…
"Peter" but was ignored. Caspian wasn't in a happy mood either, knowing about his father.
"Me? You could of called it off, there was still time"
"No there wasn't thanks to you. If you just kept to the plan, all those lost soldiers would be alive"
"And if you stayed here I suggested they definitely would be!"
"You called us remember?"
"My first mistake"
"No, your first mistake was thinking that you could lead these people"
Peter began to walk away, only to turn around by Caspian's rage.
"HEY! I am not the one who abandoned Narnia!"
"You invaded Narnia…you have NO MORE RIGHT TO BE HERE THEN MIRAZ DOES! You, him, your father! Narnia is better off with the lot of you!"
This drove Caspian crazy, he screamed of anger and drew his sword, so did Peter. They pointed them at each other's neck. But everyone's eyes were looking somewhere else. Edmund screamed Lucy's name because he needed the cordial. Trumpkin was hurt, very badly. The girls ran over towards the dying dwarf, Lucy knelt down and put a drop in the dwarf's mouth. He started to cough and open his eyes, everyone was relived.
"What are you lot staring at? The Telmarines will be here soon enough. Oh, and thank you, my dear little friend"
Lucy smiled and him, she was glad that she was alright. She stood up and gave Edmund a hug, she was so worried about the three of them and was so glad that they all made it out alive. They all walked back to Aslan's how, taking a break before another battle, however Caspian and Nikabrik (I don't know how to spell his name so don't criticize me please) were already inside looking at the pictures of the four kings and queens.
"You're so glad of that magic horn no are you? The kings and queens have failed us. Half our army is dead!"
"What can we do?"
"You want your uncle's blood? So do we! You want his throne; we can get it for you"
The two walked to the entrance of the Stone Table.
"We tried one ancient power and it failed! But there is a power greater still, one that even kept the great Aslan at bay for a hundred years."
Suddenly Caspian heard a low, scary growl coming from one of the corners. He got his sword and drew it, frightened.
"Who's there? Show yourself!"
Then, slowly a figure appeared from the shadows. It had a hood covering its face. Then another figure appeared from the other side, but this time you could see what it was. It was a hag; it most horrible creature Caspian had ever seen. Its eyes were big and red; it felt like it could pierce into your soul.
"I am hungry, I am thirst. I can fast for a hundred and not die. I can lay a hundred nights on ice, and not freeze. I can drink a river of blood and not burst. Show me…YOU ENEMY!"
The mysterious figure lifted its hood to reveal a scary, dark, evil wolf. Caspian stepped back in shock.
"What you hate, so will we, for nobody hates better than us"
"Then you can guarantee Miraz's death"
"And more"
Caspian looked back at Nikabrik, who gave him a reassuring look; however this made Caspian feel very uncomfortable, but went along with it.
"Let the circle be drawn"
The hag spoke ancient magic words, while the wolf drew a circle on the ground around Caspian. As the hag reached for the coat, Caspian could feel something evil was coming, but wasn't sure what. Suddenly the hag started to scream the last few words, while holding a broken wand of the white witch. As she forced it into to rock, she started to step back, amazed. The ice grew upon the two standing rocks; however the circle wasn't affected by the magic. As the dark magic crawled up the rocks, a faint figure appeared in the ice, she had white skin, a beautiful bone structure, long, white flowing hair and had very sharp features, it was the White Witch. Caspian knew of the White Witch and immediately refused.
"No, this isn't what I wanted"
He started to back away, but the wolf grabbed him, putting his hand out.
Her cold voice felt like it sliced right through Caspian's heart, he was terrified.
"One drop of Adam's blood, then you free me. Then I am yours my king."
"What? No, no!"
The hag grabbed his hand and used a blunt knife to cut his hand. Caspian was screaming of pain, but it was no use, the pain wasn't going away.
The White Witch's eyes hypnotized Caspian, making him stand still. The wolf let him go, and stood back. The Witch's face was pleased…until she heard the familiar voice of Peter.
"STOP!"
Peter, Trumpkin, and Edmund ran in. Immediately the hag, Nikabrik and the wolf ran to fight, they didn't want this to get ruined. The wolf ripped his cloak and went for Edmund, even though it limped, it was still a strong fighter. Nikabrik however was possessed with greed and was fighting stronger than ever. Thankfully Lucy came in and stopped him from stabbing Trumpkin. But Nikabrik was a fast thinker and twisted Lucy's arm around and pushed her to the ground, causing her to scream. This filed Edmund's ears, causing him to fight harder than ever. He finally killed the wolf, only to see the face of the White Witch, Peter pushed Caspian out the way, but the Witch's eyes got Peter hypnotized. Edmund knew what to do…
By now, Nikabrik was towering over Lucy, she never saw a Narnian dwarf look so thirsty for blood and revenge. She looked away, expecting the worse. But Trumpkin stabbed him just time, he didn't want to do it, but Nikabrik gave up on Aslan, and that meant that he gave up being good. He helped Lucy up, until they all heard a sudden crack and looked at the White Witch. Something stabbed her right in the middle of her stomach, her head fell back and her eyes turned white, then all that was left of her was crushed ice. Behind the ice was Edmund, and he had sword in his hand.
Peter looked at him, only to get this response…
"I know, you had it sorted"
As Edmund walked away, Lucy ran to his side. Peter and Caspian looked at each other, only to hear Susan's footsteps. They both turned around to find her face, full of disappointment. All she could now was walk away.
Ta-da! I hope you liked that chapter! Have a Happy New year everyone! 3 3
