Edmund's POV:
=======================================
It's cold. The ground is hard and the chain around my ankle is so cold it's starting to sting. I'm hungry.
=======================================
Third Person POV:
=======================================
Edmund reaches for the piece of bread? on the plate. He takes a bite only to immediately spit it out.

Edmund: *Coughing*

He goes to drink from the mug only to realize that it's frozen.

???: If....

Edmund looks to his right to see a faun.

???: If you're not going to eat that...

Edmund grabs the bread and moves to pass it to the faun.
???: I would get up. But my legs.

The faun takes the bread as Edmund seems to finally realize who his cell mate is.

Edmund: Mr. Tumnus.

Mr. Tumnus: What's left of him.

The faun also seems to realize who his cell mate is.

Mr. Tumnus: Your Lucy Pevensie's brother.

Edmund: I'm Edmund.

Mr. Tumnus: Yes. Yes, you have the same nose.

Edmund wipes his nose. The faun seems to come to another realization as he stares at Edmund.

Mr. Tumnus: Is your sister alright?

Edmund looks like he wants to say something but doesn't.

Mr. Tumnus: Is she safe?

Barking can be heard in the distance.

Edmund: I don't know.

They both move away from the broken bars as the doors open.

A couple seconds later The Witch appears in the doorway. She pushed the cell doors open.
Marching over to Edmund she reveals what she's here for.

WW: My police tore that dam apart.

She stop infront of Edmund.

WW: Your little family are no where to be found.

She picks him up as his shackles clang together.

WW: Where did they go?

Edmund: I don't know!

WW: Then you're of no further use to me.

She dropped Edmund and went to ice him.

Edmund: Wait! The beaver said something about Aslan!

The Witch stopped. She seemed scared.

WW: Aslan?... Where?

Edmund: I...

Mr. Tumnus: He's a stranger here your Majesty. He can't be expected to know anything.

The dwarf/Goblin guy went to grab Tumnus.

WW: I said, where is Aslan?

Edmund: I... I don't know. I left before they said anything.

The Witch now looked a mixture of scared and annoyed.

Edmund: I wanted to see you!

Her faced changed into one of extreme anger.

WW: Guard!

A hideous troll/orc walked in.

Troll/Orc: Your Majesty.

WW: Release the faun.

The Guard walked over to Tumnus with a hammer and smashed the shackles off his legs. Once he was done he picked up Tumnus and dragged him to Edmund's side of the cage.

WW: Do you know why you're here faun?

Tumnus: Because I believe in a free Narnia.

WW: You're here because he turned you in.
For sweeties.

Edmund looked down in guilt as the fauns stare hardens.

WW: Take him upstairs.

The Guard grabs Tumnus and proceeds to drag him upstairs.

WW: And ready my Sleigh. Edmund misses his family.
=======================================
Y/N's POV:
=======================================
We were currently up pretty high looking over Narnia. It looked like far away the ice and snow was starting to melt. In the distance there looked to be a structure sitting atop a large mountain. I suddenly felt a chill, alot like the one when Lucy first entered Narnia but, this one had a more sinister feel to it almost... evil.

Mr. Beaver: Now, Aslan's camp is near the Stone Table just across the frozen river.

Peter: River?

Mrs. Beaver: Don't worry, the rivers been frozen solid for a hundred years.

Peter stared out at the horizon.

Peter: It's so far.

Mrs. Beaver: It's the world, dear. Did you expect it to be small.

It took a second for someone to say it but, we were all thinking the same thing.

Susan: Smaller.

She gave both me and Peter a look.
I smirked. Peter looked annoyed.

As I walked past Peter I patted him on the shoulder.

Y/N: Don't worry they'll be fine.

I was trying to ignore the feeling.
=======================================
Edmund's POV:
=======================================
The dwarf was leading me to the sleigh.
Just as I entered the room I notice something.
The faun, Mr. Tumnus, He was frozen. He looked terrified. I took a step back when I saw him. I felt guilt. This was my fault.

WW: When you're ready, Son of Adam.
=======================================

Here's another chapter. This one has almost no difference from the actual scene but I feel like it should be fine. Don't forget to comment your thought and vote.
