-Third Person-

"Wait!" Lucy said as the Pevensie turned around to them before they going to Telmarines castle.

"Can we join fight?" Adriana asked as the Pevensie looked at each other.

"Sure, but be careful. Verina, you follow us while Lucy, Adriana, you follow with Edmund and Aurora," Hermione answers to her as they nod.

A griffin flew in, carrying Edmund, Adriana, Aurora and Lucy. They landed on top of a tower, out of sight of a soldier who stood guard. He looked up, and saw nothing. Then, the griffin grabbed him and pulled him up.

Edmund, Aurora, Adriana and Lucy jumped down, as Edmund used his electric torch to signal the others. Hermione, Peter, Susan, Katelyn and Caspian, carried by griffins, flew in and land. Caspian and Katelyn flew low and killed a soldier on the way. Another soldier noticed Edmund's signals and aimed his crossbow at him.

Susan shot him as they landed. Hermione and Peter killed Telmarine soldiers. Outside, Asterius sneaked along. A soldier saw him and drew his sword. Asterius put a finger to his lips.

"Shhh...," He whispered as Nikabrik came up behind him and hit the soldier in the head.

Led by Reepicheep, the mice climbed out from underground, and scurry through the gate, easily fitting through the bars. They crawled across a rope and enter the castle. Reepicheep noticed a cat around the corner. He drew his sword and smiled.

Mary, Hermione, Peter, Susan, Verina, Katelyn and Caspian climbed down a wall. Caspian knocked on a window.

"Professor?" Caspian whispered before he opened the window and stepped into Cornelius' study as Hermione, Peter and Susan followed him.

He found a pair of glasses on the table.

"We have to find him," Katelyn told them.

"Your right." Caspian agreed.

"You don't have time. You have to get to the gatehouse," Hermione replied.

"You wouldn't even be here without him. And neither would I," Caspian replied.

Mary, Hermione, Peter and Susan exchanged glances.

"We can take care of Miraz," Susan replied.

"And I can still make it to the gatehouse in time," Caspian replied as they ran off.

"Wait, Mom, Dad!" Verina exclaimed as she follow after them.

"Do you think they're gonna make it?" Mary asked as they looked at each other again.

A Telmarine soldier walked around the castle interior. He noticed that the cat is tied up. He looked around suspiciously. Reepicheep drops down, hanging upside down, and drew his rapier. The soldier turned and saw him.

"Yes, I'm a mouse," He replied before hitting the solider.

He jumped down and signaled the other mice. They all jumped onto another soldier and knocked him over. Then they climbed onto each other's backs and open the door. Trumpkin entered and shot another soldier.

"Ah, we were expecting someone, you know, taller," Reepicheep replied.

"You're one to talk," Trumpkin responded.

"Is that supposed to be irony?" The mouse asked as Trumpkin shut the door.

-Later-

"Put the sword down, Caspian, Katelyn. I don't want to do this," she told him.
