The next morning, I got up and had breakfast. I got dressed and placed some armour on. Lucy and Susan stayed behind with Aslan. They had been there ever since yesterday.

After breakfast, I met up with Peter and the troops. We were now the new leaders of the troops.

We told them our plan and we soon marched towards the battlefield. I was on my horse and in light armour next to Peter, Xavier and Oreius on the front lines.

A gryphon came flying towards us and landed next to me.

"They've come your highness." The gryphon said."There numbers and weapons are greater than our own."

"Numbers do not win a battle." Oreius said.

"But rather the skill." I added.

"This means we will have to fight harder." Xavier commented.

From the opposing side, mother's army soon arrived. Once all of them arrived I clenched my jaw. There's so many! I grew rather nervous.

I gulped.

Peter turned to me and smiled."I-It's going to be alright."

I could tell he was nervous as well, but he tried to cover it up.

"If we don't make it, Xavier." I said."I just wanted to tell you that you're the greatest brother that anyone could have."

He chuckled."Thanks sis, and you're the greatest sister one could have."

We then waited for a while. Peter then drew his sword. We drew our weapons as well and our troops cheered. The horns of war sounded off. At that moment, the other side came rushing towards us.

"When?" I asked Peter.

"Not yet." Peter said as he summoned the gryphons.

They let boulders drop on their troops.

"Are you with me?" Peter asked Oreius.

"To the death." Oreius replied.

"And you two?" Peter asked Xavier and me.

"We're with you as well." Xavier said.

"Until the very end." I added."For Narnia!"

"And for Aslan!" Peter cheered."Forward!"

With that we took off and ran towards the enemy. We soon arrived face to face with the enemy as both slows clashed.

I fought and killed many enemies alongside Xavier and Peter.

Mother soon approached us. I fought others as she came in her carriage. Arrows were coming down from our side.

"Draw back!" Peter yelled."To the rock!"

"What?" Xavier and I asked.

We wanted to fight her back, but Peter has a reason. With that we drew back to the rock.

On the way there, my horse and Peter's horse were shot making us fly off and hit the ground.

"Peter!" I quickly got up and helped him up.

Oreius and a rhino went off the fight mother's army. The rhino ended up killed and Oreius tried going after mother.

"Kill her!" I yelled.

However, mother turned him into stone. No! Mother looked directly at us.

Everyone around us on our side were dying. With my two swords I fought off many of them. Xavier had my back as he was helping me.

"There's too many." I said.

We heard a sound go off and bright light. We turned to see Edmund fighting mother.

"You go Edmund!" Xavier cheered on.

He was doing good until mother stabbed him.

"Ed!" Peter yelled.

"That little bitch!" I yelled."Peter, I'll handle this. Cover for me."

I ran towards her while Xavier helped kill the others who were in our way. Peter helped me as well, however he fell to the ground.

I began to fight mother blocking her every move.

"You think you can defeat me?" She mocked."There's nothing special about you!"

"That's where you're wrong!" I spat as I continued to fight her.

At the top of the mountain we heard a growl and we turned to see Aslan. Aslan!

"Impossible." Mother gasped.

More troops then came and mother took the chance to stab my side. Ugh.

"Sabrina!"

I continued to fight mother ignoring the pain as Xavier then helped fight her.

"You must give up!" Mother sneered.

Peter came however after fighting a while, mother knocked him to he ground and forced a sword into his arm.

"Ouch!" Peter yelled out.

Mother was about to stab him, when Xavier and I stabbed her in the stomach. She turned slowly and was about to grab us when Aslan tackled her and finished her off.

"It is finished." Aslan as he approached us.

"How did you?" Xavier asked Aslan.

"I committed no treason and I died on the stone table, therefore death retraced itself for me to live." Aslan explained.

"Peter! Sabrina!"

We turned to see Susan and Lucy. At that moment, I fell to the ground.

"Lucy, Susan, go find Edmund." Peter said.

I was losing too much blood. Xavier bent down next to me. The pain was unbearable.

"No, sis! You can't die!" Xavier cried.

"Don't worry we'll help you." Peter said panicking."Xavier, don't you have magic?"

"Yes, but it's not as power as Sabrina's." Xavier explained.

"Then just try." Peter suggested.

"It doesn't hurt to try." I managed to say.

Xavier huffed out a sigh as he placed his hands above my wound. Blue light came out of his hands and into my wound.

I stopped losing blood and Xavier took his hands away.

"That's all I can do." Xavier said reluctantly.

I still felt the pain as I groaned. Lucy, Edmund, Susan, and Aslan came over to me.

"We need to take her away quickly." Aslan said upon seeing my wound.

With that Peter scooped me up and carried me in his arms. Xavier was next to him as they followed Aslan.

"Don't worry, Sabrina we're going to heal you." Xavier assured me.

"Stay awake, Sabrina." Peter said."Please, stay awake."

My eyelids grew heavy as I looked back at Peter and Xavier.

"Forgive me." I said.

With that darkness consumed me and I saw nothing else.
