THREE

Teaching the two boys to swordfight was not nearly as easy as I had thought. Holding the sword wrong, holding it to high or low..I find myself having to hold back my impatience, nearly unsuccessful a few times.

As they rode off, Edmund on a chesnut horse and Peter on a unicorn, I couldn't help but smile and think at what they would become in a day's time or so.

"Jadis, the Queen of Narnia!"cried Ginarrbrik. I growled under my breath and gave the children a quick, fleeting glance. My hands balled into fists. Someone shouted at her to go away, and Ginarrbrik spoke again. The Cyclops set her down and she stepped off her litter and stared at Aslan.

"You have a traitor in your midst,Aslan." Gasps and whispers rippled through the crowd and my hands clenched at my sides.

"His offense was not against you."Aslan replied coolly.

"Have you forgotten the laws upon which Narnia was built?"

"Do not cite the Deep Magic to ME,Witch!I was there when it was written!"He growled. I refused to listen any further and I turned my head to the sky and remembered my tutor. I remembered when he spoke of freedom, sacrifice, and love.

I snapped back to reality at the sound of cheering. I smiled at the sight of the Witch leaving and glanced at Susan and her siblings. Lucy, the youngest, was looking at Aslan. I glanced back at him and noticed a certain sadness in his eyes.
