The next day we commenced the journey. A few days went by and we arrived at the place. There were many tents and a centaur blew it's horn at the top of a hill.

When we walked in, everyone was staring at us. There were flags, tents, weapons, and many Narnians.

"Why are they all staring at us?" Susan asked nervously.

"Maybe they think you look funny." Lucy suggested.

I chuckled."Or maybe they realise that we're part of the prophecy."

We soon approached a huge tent with yellow and red colours and banners. Everyone gathered around us.

A centaur came before us. Peter then raised his sword while he said."We have come to see Aslan." Then he lowered his sword.

There were murmurs amongst the crowd. Everyone in the crowd then kneeled before us.

At that moment, Aslan came out of his tent. Aslan! We then kneeled before Aslan.

"Welcome Peter, son of Adam. Welcome Susan and Lucy, daughters of Eve." Aslan greeted."Welcome Sabrina, princess and daughter of Queen Jadis. And welcome beavers, you have my thanks. But where is the fifth?"

We then stood up as Peter replied."That's why we're here, sir. We need your help."

"We've had a little trouble along our way." Susan added.

"Right. A little." I teased.

I earned a glare from Peter.

"What?" I asked."I'm just saying the truth."

"Our brother's been captured by the White witch." Peter explained.

"Captured by the White witch?" Aslan asked."How could this be?"

"It's actually a long story." I replied.

"He betrayed Peter, your majesty." Mr. Beaver explained.

"Then he has betrayed us all." The centaur spoke up.

"Peace Oreius." Aslan said."There must be explanation."

"It's my fault." Peter said taking the blame."I was too hard on him."

Susan comforted Peter and said."I was as well."

"We all were." I added.

"So? He's our brother." Lucy pointed out.

Aslan sighed."I know, but that makes the betrayal all that worse. This may be harder than you think."

"And how so?" I inquired.

He sighed."It's quite hard you see, but I will do my best. In the meantime, while you're here enjoy yourselves and the beautiful landscape. Now the rest of you return to your stations."

"You heard his majesty." Oreius ordered.

With that the other Narnians left back to their stations. Lucy wandered off near the butterflies while Susan followed after her.

Aslan gave us a tent to stay in which we thanked him for in the meantime. I found a trunk of dresses, I changed into a beautiful blue dress.

I then found Peter alone on a hill and I walked towards him.

"Hey." I said as I approached him.

He turned and smiled at me."Hey, that dress looks lovely on you."

I smiled."Thanks."

He was looking out at a castle. It looked beautiful and marvelous. I think that was the one Tumnus had mentioned.
