The next day it was sunny and everything had dried up so i suggested that we used the cricket set and play outside Peter, Edmund and Susan were playing while i was reading with Lucy.

"ow" i heard Edmund

"wake up dolly day dream" Peter teased

"why can't we play hide and seek again" Edmund questioned i sighed

"i thought you said i was a kids game." Peter smirked walking back. i chuckled and continued watching.

"besides we could do with the fresh air." Susan added.

"it's not like there isn't air inside" he retorted Peter was checking the ball.

"Are you ready?" he asked his little brother.

"are you?" he redid himself Peter threw the ball and Edmund whacked it sending it flying and smashing a window i gasped uh oh. we looked at each other before running inside one of the suit of arm was on the floor with the ball lying next to it a hole in the window.

"oh well done Ed." Peter scolded.

"you bowled it." he retorted we heard Mrs Macready oh no she wasn't in the best of moods today after last night so we ran anywhere we went it sounded like she was getting closer. we ran upstairs and opened the door to the wardrobe room Edmund opened the door.

"come on" Edmund urged

"you have got to be joking" Susan huffed Macready footsteps were coming closer i ran in first followed by the others.

"get back" peter whispered i sighed others were morning until i felt the ground change and i turned round. snow, braches i gasped and looked around we were in Narnia it was just like Lucy described it. the was a plonk Peter and Susan were on the floor.

"impossible" Susan muttered Lucy stood next to me.

"don't worry I'm sure it's just your imagination" i gathered up some snow and placed it in Lucy's hand

"don't supposed a sorry would suffice." Peter looked solemn

"no but this might" she threw the snow ball we laughed and began having a snow fight we stopped when one hit Edmund.

"ow stop it" he complained.

"you little liar." Peter began.

"well you didn't believe her either" he retorted i put my hands on Lucy's shoulders

"apologise to Lucy" Peter demanded but Edmund said nothing

"say you're sorry" he took one step

"alright I'm sorry." he looked at his little sister who came with a witty come back.

"it's alright some children don't know when to stop pretending." i snickered but began to rub my arms i was now feeling the cold air.

"don't you think we should be getting back." Susan spoke her mind. no i wanted to stay have a adventure.

"shouldn't we at least look around." Edmund said something similar to what i was thinking .

"i think Lucy should decide." i grinned knowing what she would say.

"i want you all to meet Mr Tumnus" she chimed i clapped

"then Mr Tumnus it is he went back into the wardrobe.

"this is going to be great." i whispered to Lucy she nodded

"but we can't go hiking in the snow dressed like this" Susan protested, Peter came back out with five coats

"no, but I'm sure the professor won't mind us using these if you think about it...logically we're not even taking them out of the wardrobe " he handed us a coat

"i can't wait my very own trip into Narnia I've been waiting since i was three" we began hiking through the snow.

"you knew about Narnia." Susan asked

"oh yes Grandpa was one of the first here he told me about its history and everything but things have changed since he was last here he said that time moves differently when you're in Narnia." we continued on.

"and were going to have lots and lots of tea..." Lucy trailed off telling us about what the faun was like and what would happen. she gasped and ran ahead.

"Lucy" we followed her the door it was almost off its hinges i covered my mouth what had happened. this place was a mess.

"the faun Tumnus is here by charged with high treason against her imperial majesty Jadis, Queen of Narnia for comforting her enemy and fraternizing with humans signed Maugrim captain of the secret police. Long Live the queen." Peter read out  Susan took it while i hugged Lucy.

"alright now we really should go back" Susan stated.

"but what about Mr Tumnus?" i questioned i never met the faun but he from what i heard he was a nice Narnian.

if he was arrest just for being with a human there is nothing we can do." Susan replied.

"don't you get it I'm the human she must have found out he helped me" Lucy's voice broke.

"what about if we call the police" Peter suggested i bent down to Lucy wiping away a tear.

"these are the police." Susan retorted.

"don't worry Luce we'll figure something out." i promised and she hugged Peter

"why i mean he's a criminal" Ed was really starting to annoy me with his negativity. a bird chirped before pissing.

"did that bird just psst at us" Susan asked it did it again i went outside following it there were lots of noises and the others were getting scared
