Chapter 5

After all the plans were discussed Kathryn , Caspian, and all the Pevensies took off into the sky to attack Miraz's castle. This was the first time Kathryn ever rode a gryphon in the sky. This was the first time Kathryn ever felt free, as she was soaring in the dark blue sky towards battle. Edmund shouted to Kathryn "You like this or are you nervous" Kathryn answered excitedly "A little bit of both"

Kathryn

Kathryn wished Peter listened to Susan, Caspian, Edmund, Lucy, and her; she had a really horrible feeling that something terrible will happen: like mass casualties or one of them will die. She couldn't bear the thought of loosing her best friends or even Caspian. Why am I thinking of Caspian all the sudden? Kathryn thought. Kathryn felt guilty for thinking of him of more than a friend all of the sudden, because she knew Susan greatly admired him.

Susan

Susan was thinking I think we should have listened to Caspian: he's so handsome, majestic, and strong.

Edmund

Looking at Kathryn, Edmund, knows that she has a bad feeling. Lucy told him that both Susan and Kitty both like Caspian. Edmund has a feeling that Caspian admires Kitty and not Susan. He's afraid that Susan and Kitty will both get hurt in the end.

Edmund whispered to Kathryn "You know your going with Peter, Susan, and Caspian right?" Kathryn whispered back "Don't worry I know the plan" They were coming towards their destination ; Miraz's castle was straight ahead. The gryphons landed the children to their designated spot.

Meanwhile, Reepichap and his mice fellow creeped into the castle so that the others could get in. The mice crawled around the cobblestone castle floor and found the cat and tied him up in his sleep. A guard saw the cat tied up and said "What the-?" All of the sudden, the unknowing guard was knocked down and saw Reepichap and stuttered "You're a-a-a mouse" Reepichap snorted "As if you humans couldn't be more original" The guard and others that would soon follow were taken by surprise.

Soon the other narnains followed in and started assisting in the manuver. On the outside the others were allowed inside the courtyard . Peter, Susan, Kathryn, and Caspian started surprising the guards and attacking. On the roof Edmund was also making good process, by taking the unsuspecting guards by surprise. Everything was going according to plan, but Kathryn still had a bad feeling that something bad was about to happen. Edmund flashed his light, so that the others could assist.

Caspian after taking out a few of the guards, went towards the prison to find his dear Professor Cornelius. Caspian went down the staircase, which was being guarded, but Caspian took them by surprise and took them out. Caspian came to the proffesor's cell and released him. The proffesor exclaimed "Caspian, you shouldn't have come you know how dangerous it is for you to be here" Caspian chuckled "The kings and queens of old are now taking Miraz by surprise" the proffesor gasped "You shouldn't underestimate Miraz, your father did and look what happened to him" Caspian said angrily "What do you mean?" The proffesor said grimly "Miraz killed your father" After those words were said Caspian took off to have a few words with Miraz.

Up in the tower Edmund dropped his flashlight and trouble was ensued. A guard saw a broken flshlight, and announced "We have an intruder" Edmund then started looking for a place to hide and whispered "Oh god" Then he took off in hiding in hopes that the guards would not find him and all would then go wrong.

Down in the courtyard a guard spotted Peter and almost shouted until Susan's bow whizzed at him and pierced him in the heart. Another guard saw that and almost shouted for assistance when Kathryn sent an arrow at him and pierced his heart; therefore silencing him. Kathryn then said "Oh no you don't"

Caspian

Anger was coursing through Caspian's mind and veins thinking How could Miraz do such a deceitful thing to get the throne, I can't believe it all these years he's been sort of a father to me.

Caspian came to Miraz's chamber and opened it and went to his bed and pointed the sword at him. Miraz woke up with a fright and whispered "Caspian" Caspian said angrily "Get up right now" Miraz's wife awoke with a starty and said "Caspian it's you" Caspian said angrily "You killed my father, and for that I will make you pay" Caspian made a move to kill him, his aunt took a bow and arrow and said "Caspian step away from my husband, I don't want to kill you Caspian" Caspian scoffed "And let the man who killed my father get away with this crime" Miraz's wife gasped with shock "I thought you said he died from an ailment" Miraz's wife then pointed the bow at Miraz. said "If you kill me you'll leave our son fatherless like Caspian, you wouldn't want our son to grow up without a father like Caspian do you?" Miraz's wife then pointed an arrow at Caspian.

Down in the courtyard all the narnians and the guards were fighting head on, and the narnians seemed to be in victory.

Up in the tower, a guard spotted Edmund and shouted "It's King Edmund, seize him" Edmund ran from the guards and locked himself in a tower. Edmund peered outside to make sure nobody spotted him, he stepped outside to make a run for it. But a guard appeared in front of him and Edmund took him out.

Down below Kathryn heard a scream and shouted "Peter, Susan; something's happened to Caspian" Kathryn ran towards a staircase, and a guard tried to block her path but stopped him with her sword. Susan and Peter followed behind to aide their friend. Guards kept on appearing, but Peter and Kathryn took care of them with their swords, while Susan took care of them with their bow. They came upstairs and saw Caspian pointing a sword at their enemy Miraz and his wife pointing an arrow at them. Peter said "Caspian come on, we'll take care of them later" Susan then tried "Caspian come on" As Caspian was about to kill his uncle, Miraz's wife shot an arrow and Kathryn pushed Caspian out of the way. The others fled while Kathryn pulled Caspian out of the room. Miraz's aunt shouted "No!" and then she began crying. Edmund met them in the hall and gasped "We have to get out of here your plan is failing" All of the children went down into the courtyard to a battle they were loosing quite miserably. All of the children tried to fight off the enemy forces but susan saw their were mass casualties on their side and shouted "Peter we have to retreat, look around"

Peter looked around at all the lives lost on his comrades side and shouted "Retreat!" Everybody was making for a gate but then Miraz saw this and shouted "Don't let them escape!" The guards tried to stop him, but to no avail a minotaur stopped him and the gate that was closing and said "Go!!" All the narnians started to retreat, a centaur saw Susan running and let Susan climb on it's back. Susan saw Caspian still fighting and said "Peter" Peter saw Susan and said "I'll get him, go on" Edmund also got out with the help of the gryphons. Peter got a horse and shouted "Caspian we have to retreat come on"

Kathryn was coming behind Edmund and Susan on centaur's but saw a guards coming for Caspian and Peter. Kathryn jumped off the centaur and ran back for the two boys. Susan saw this and shouted "Kitty!Get back here!" Kathryn then shouted " Go on without me!" Kathryn ran back inside to the guards that were charging at the two boys and took them all out one by one.

As the boys turned around they saw guards charging at them , and saw Kathryn taking them out. "Kitty!" Peter shouted. Kathryn took all the guards out and saw a little fox lying there dying and picked him up and said "Don't worry we'll get you home" Peter and Caspian came running towards Kathryn on horses. A guard came up and took Kathryn by surprise by slashing her arm. Kathryn didn't notice and took out the guard. Caspian ran offered Kathryn his hand and Kathryn took it. Then the children ran quickly through the gate, while the Minotaur had an ounce of strength left. After that the gate came crashing down on the Minotaur. Kathryn saw this and shouted "No!!" Caspian grabbed Kathryn and said solemnly "I'm sorry, but ther's nothing else we can do" Kathryn looked back at the dying creature with sadness and tried to hold back a few tears.
