Jadis' Daughters

The Battle

Third person pov:-

Peter takes his place at the very front of the army. Eliza is beside him along with Oreuis. Ed and Mira stand on higher ground along with the archers and a small portion of the army mainly consisting of women.

A gryphon flies towards Peter and lands beside him. "They come Your Highness, in numbers and weapons far greater than our own." He reports to Peter.

"Numbers do not win battles." Eliza tells Peter in an attempt to reassure him.

"No," Peter says. "But I bet they help." He says with a bit of hopelessness in his voice.

Before Eliza can say anything a loud horn sounds from the other side of the field. Otmin is seen emerging on top of a boulder on the other side. For a moment he stands there observing Aslan's army before letting out a loud roar that commands the witch's army to advance.

The hideous and frightening creatures are seen coming closer with some giants storming the ground as they advence. The four on Aslan's side look for one creature. Ed and Mira see her first then Peter and Eliza. Jadis comes riding a chariot drawn by polar bears. Seeing what she is wearing both Peter and Eliza tightened their grips on their swords. Wrapped around her neck like some sort of trophy is Aslan's mane that they had cut off last night.

Peter turns around and looks up at Edmund. He gives Peter a nod and with new courage Peter turns around to face Jadis. He pulls down his helmet and pulls his sword out of its sheath and holds it up high. In doing so Aslan's army starts hollering as they too pull out their swords. The cheetahs and rhinos roar in anticipation.

Jadis just watches all this before turning to Otmin. "I have no interest in prisoners. Kill them all!" She orders. Otmin lets out a roar and half of the witch's army charges.

Peter waits for the army to get closer before giving a wave of his sword. All kinds of birds fly to the sky with boulders held between their claws ready to drop those on the enemy.

Otmin notices this and roars out, "Look to the sky."

One by one the birds drop the rocks. While the rocks are dropping, Mira uses her powers to light the rocks on fire. The rocks drop with accuracy killing quickly and igniting those nearby. Several of the archers on the witch's side take aim and fire. But Mira quickly uses her magic to turn the arrows towards the witch's army.

Peter turns to Oreuis. "Are you with me?" He asks.

"To the death." Oreuis answers. Peter turns back to the advancing army. It is time.

"For Narnia!" Peter screams. "And for Aslan!" He yells as he thrusts his sword into the air before leading the charge. The troops along with Eliza charge behind their fearless leader.

Ed, Mira, the archers and the rest who are with them are forced to watch everything that happens. The whole thing seems to happen in slow motion. Aslan's army is fighting with an agenda while the witch's army is just chaos. The cheetahs clash with the white tigers first and then the rest of the army follows.

Peter and Eliza stay as close to each other as they can.

Jadis stands motionless as she watches all this. An entire half of her army is still behind her. Jadis cracks her reigns and the polar bears take off. The rest of the army follows. Peter and Jadis make eye contact. Peter's heart skips a beat. He knows she is coming for him and Eliza.

When Ed notices the new army approaching he points his sword at it and motions to Mira. Mira sets fire in a straight line between Jadis and her approaching troops, and Peter, Eliza and those who are already fighting.
