'Ed, this queen.. What is she like?' Kardia whispered to the young boy she was walking alongside.

Edmund sighed as he watched his feet trek through the cold winter's snow. 'For the thousandth time, she was lovely to me. Said she'd make me a prince. Oh, you don't know how much I want that Kar. Just to be better than Peter for once in my life!'

Kardia winced at the mention of Peters name, and looked back at the dam that was soon far in the distance. 'Are we doing the right thing? Walking away?' she questioned.

'Well, did you really want to stay with them Kardia? Or we could just go to a place where were actually wanted. I don't know about you, but I'm getting sick of Peters moaning!' Edmund said sharply.

'I guess not' she sighed. 'I just don't know why Peter turned on me so. Did I do anything?'

Edmund looked up at her, shocked. 'Of course you didn't! You only wanted to go home, and that's completely reasonable. Peter is being an outrageous jerk!' he whispered. 'He thinks he's dad.'

Kardia wrapped an arm around Edmund and the two of them carried on walking.

Edmund didn't talk much after that. The occasional shake of the head, or a yes and a no but no full sentences.

'Hey.. Ed' Kardia shook the boys shoulder. 'Ed.. I think were here.'

Edmund looked up and smiled. 'We are. Come on! Follow me!' he grabbed his new friends hand and ran towards the castle.

Stepping inside the tall iron gates, they both looked behind them to hear a faint 'Edmund! Kardia!'.

Their eyes widened and they returned into the castles cold walls, leaving the 3 children alone in the distance with only the beavers.

Peter sighed as he looked at the beavers. 'Well, where do you suppose they would have gone then? I mean, only Edmunds been to Narnia aswell as Lucy. Well, to our knowledge anyway'

Susan and Lucy looked at the door that was still open, from the other two's miraculous exit that nobody had witnessed.

'Listen, there's only one place they would've gone. From what I recall earlier, they both seemed very transfixed by a spot between to hills.' Beaver started.

'They went to the White Witch.. Didn't they? That's why Edmund was so angry when you mentioned her earlier! Oh!' Lucy cried.

'I'm afraid so, dear. But there's no means as to say we can't stop them. So come on! Hurry before they get any further, and we may just catch them!' Mrs beaver hurried.

The 5 of them hurried out of the dam, and ran towards the nearest path.

Just as they reached the hill nearing towards the ice castle, they saw two people walking slowly towards the iron gates, 'Edmund, Kardia!' Lucy cried

Peter covered his little sisters mouth. 'Shut up! They'll 'ear ya!'

Once Peter was convinced she would stay quiet, he removed his hand and went to make a run for it.

Beaver grabbed the end of his coat and pulled him back, just as he watched the iron gates close, a loud thud whilst shutting.

'Why did you stop me?' Peter cried, 'I could've gotten them back!'

'Don't you get it?' Beaver yelled. 'Their the bait! The witch want's all five of ya!'

'But.. Why?' Lucy asked. Mrs beaver sighed. 'To kill you!' Mr beaver finished.

Susan sighed. 'This is all you're fault!'

'Why?' Peter sounded offended.

'If you had just listened to me and Kardia in the first place, we wouldn't be in this mess!' she cried.

'Oh, so you knew this was going to happen?' he taunted her.

'I didn't know what would happen!' she cried, verging on the brink of tears. 'Which is why we should have left while we still could!'

'Oh stop it you two!' Lucy walked in between them. 'Do you really think any of this is going to help Ed and Kar?'

The two teenagers looked down, ashamed.

'Only Aslan can help them now' beaver sighed.

'Then take us to him' Peter stated, looking at the castle that held his brother and close friend, whom he had foolishly yelled at.

He sighed, and the five of them turned away, heading back to the dam to prepare for what lye ahead.
