So, the walk back to the base was kind of awkward. None of us talked to each other. I think we were all a little startled by what happened to me, then Edmund right after. I mean, now we're all worried about what Caspian has in mind. I hope it's not too dangerous.
"Here's my plan everyone," Caspian says looking at us and his army around the round table. "Hermione, you will be dropped off by one of the hippogriffs on the tower. When you see that everything is clear below, you will flick the flashlight on and off, and that will be our signal. Everyone else, once you see this flashing, I will lead you through the underground tunnel that leads straight into the courtyard of the castle. Peter, Edmund, and Draco, you three and I will fight off any guards that we see as we go along inside the castle, and we will find my father. The rest of you, stay in the courtyard and fight off any of his army, and make sure the gate is open for when Hermione, Draco, Peter, Edmund, and I are finished."
"One question." I say raising my hand a little.
"Yes?" Caspian says looking at me.
"When do I know to make my way towards the gates after I flash the light?" I ask.
"Just wait at the top of the tower, and I will send Draco and Edmund to get you." Caspian replies confidently. "Sounds like a plan." I say smiling back at him.
Caspian then gestures to Peter, Edmund, Draco, and I and tells us to follow him. We follow him down a flight of stairs, into what looks like an armour room. "There's a chest with armour in it for each of you. You will see your names labeled on them." Caspian says pointing to each of the chests.
I walk over to the chest with my name and open it. There is a whole set of female armour and I must say, I have no idea what this is going to be like, because I've never worn armour for a battle before. I start pulling out the chain mail and holding it up, trying to figure out how to put it on. I glance over at Draco and see that he has the same confused expression as I do.
"Need help?" Peter asks looking at me from across the room. "If you don't mind." I reply smiling back at him.
He makes his way over to me and takes all the armour out of the chest. "I assume you've never worn any of this before." He says looking at me over his shoulder. "No." I respond laughing a little.
Peter finished helping me get suited up and I glanced at the looking glass that was off to the side of the room, and I must say, I looked pretty dang good in armour. I turned around to see that the rest of them were all suited up. "Are you all ready for this?" Caspian asked giving Draco, Peter, Edmund, and I a reassuring look. "I was born ready." Draco replies with his hands in fists and resting on his hips.
"Alright," Caspian says. "Let's end this."
