Y/n's point of view

Mr Beaver was leading us to his dam, on our way we explored the beauty of Narnia. It matches the description about this magical place my mom told me about. The place was indeed beautiful. "Come on. We don't want to be caught out here after night fall." Mr Beaver said. The beaver then started shouting out words I don't really understand when we were getting near the dam.  "It's lovely." Lucy complimented. "It's merely a trifle. Still plenty to do. Ain't quite finished it yet. It'll look the business when it is though." Mr Beaver replied. "Beaver, is that you? I've been worried sick! If I find out you've been out with badger again, I..." The female beaver or should I call her Mrs Beaver said. "Well those aren't badgers. Oh I never thought I'd live to see this day." she added and I giggled. "Look at my fur. You couldn't give me ten minutes warning?" Mrs Beaver asked while touching her fur. "I'd have given a week if I thought it would've helped." Mr Beaver responded. "Come inside and we'll see if we can give you some food, and some civilized company." The female beaver offered so we entered the tiny but cute dam. "Now careful, watch your step." Mr Beaver told us. I noticed Edmund was staring at something and I looked at it, I suddenly felt something that I recognize that place. I don't remember when but I feel I've been here in Narnia before. "Edmund, come on." I told him. "Enjoyin' the scenery are we?" Mr Beaver asked him. 

I sat down to one of the chairs, Peter and Susan sat on the two chairs and Lucy sat on her sister's lap while Edmund sat on the stairs. "Isn't there anything we could do to help Tumnus?" Peter asked. I squeezed my hand hoping we'll find a way. "They'll have him to the Witch's. You know what they say. There's few that go through them that come out again." Mr Beaver answered. I felt chills of fear run through my spine upon hearing the bad news that Mr Tumnus can't get out of the castle. Mrs Beaver gave us some fish 'n chips for us to eat. "Fish n chips?" She offered. "But there is hope dear, lots of hope." Mrs Beaver tried comforting us. "Oh, yeah, there's a bit more than hope! Aslan is on the move." Mr Beaver told us. I started searching in memories when did I hear that. "Who's Aslan?" Edmund stood up from the stairs and asked. "Who's Aslan? You cheeky little blighter." Mr Beaver chuckled causing his wife to nudge his arm. "What?" He asked her. "You don't know do you?" Mr Beaver asked us. "We haven't been here very long." I replied. Just when Mr Beaver starts explaining, I saw Edmund leaving the dam and I followed him.

Edmund's point of view

I left the beaver's dam and searched for the two hills the queen showed me. While I was almost there, I heard an annoying voice ringing through my ears again. "Where in the world do you think you're going Edmund Pevensie?" I don't have to turn around because I know it's her. "And why did you follow me?" I asked her. "That's exactly why I am following you. Who knows where you're going?" She asked. "That's my own business. Go back to the others." I told Y/n. "I'm still going with you, whether you like it or not." I kept on forcing her to leave but she still stood firm to her decision. "Fine! You may come with me." I told her. 

When we reached the territory of the witch's castle, Y/n called me. "Edmund..." "What?" I asked. "I really think we should go back. I have a feeling this place is dangerous." She told me. "You may go back if you want then. I told you to do that earlier." I said. "I'm not going back without you. Please Edmund." she pleaded while pulling my arm. "No. I'm supposed to come here." I replied then she sighed. While entering the gates, I heard my siblings calling my name and Y/n's but I ignored them. We saw lots of statues in the queen's castle. "Y/n, look at this." I showed her a statue and grabbed a coal then drew on the statue then she chuckled. She's kind of cute while laughing. We went further and further then a statue suddenly turned into a real wolf and jumped on me. "Edmund!" Y/n screamed. "Be still stranger, or you'll never move again." The wolf told me. "Who are you?" he asked then stared at Y/n. "Also you, who are you?" Y/n looked terrified. "I'm Edmund and she's Y/n! I met the Queen in the woods! She told me to come back here! I'm a Son of Adam!" I replied. "Hmm. My apologies, fortunate favorite of the queen. Or else, not so fortunate." The wolf replied. "Right this way." he led us to the throne room of the queen. "Wait here." 

I saw Y/n touching some parts of the throne then it suddenly melted causing Y/n to jump. I widened my eyes when I saw it. "Y/n, how did you do that?" I asked. "I don't really know." She said while looking on her hands. I sat on the queen's throne then I suddenly heard a voice scaring me. "Like it?" the queen asked. "Uh... yes, your majesty." I replied. The queen noticed Y/n and she looked back to me. "Who's this you brought with you?" she asekd. "This is Y/n." I replied. "Ah, Y/n. Edmund told me a lot about you. Ginarrbrik!" "Yes your majesty." Ginarrbrik replied. "Please entertain our guest." seh ordered then Ginarrbrik brought Y/n some where. 

Y/n's point of view

The lady Edmund called 'queen' ordered her dwarf to bring me to a cell instead. I guess this is why I feel chills running through me. I hugged my legs together and buried my head on them.  This place is terrifying. The dwarf opened the cell and threw Edmund in too. I heard howling of wolves then. I buried my head into my legs and started sobbing. Edmund cuddled me then. "Why are you doing this?" I asked him. "I just... you seem cold. Why didn't you bring your coat?" he asked me. "I wanted to reach you in time so I didn't hurry." I replied. "Y/n.." "Yea?" I asked. "I'm.. so sorry I brought you into this mess." He told me. I just went closer to him and I started feeling warmth around me. "It's alright Edmund, you just... didn't know who she really is." I told him.
