 we stood on the field of Beruna up on a mount i was on Peter's left where as Orious stood on is right i rubbed Willows mane as griffin squawked above us and came down next to me.

"they come your highnesses in numbers and weapons greater than our own" he informed us.

"numbers do not win a battle" Orious spoke.

"no but they sure do help" Peter replied we watched as the general for the queen stood on the opposite mount and brought forth the army number obviously greater that our own spread across the felid the Witch was on a Polar Bear drawn chariot and was that... Aslan's mane around her neck like some trophy my eyes narrowed at her even though she couldn't see.

Peter looked up at Edmund then at me and gave him a hint of a smile and nodded he took out his sward and held it up the solders cheered and a horn was blew i took out my sward as well the Witch army made the first move her first line charged at us as she watched.

"you know to give them hell right Willow" i asked my mare.

"would do anything less Princess" i tapped her and Peter gave the signal  eagles, falcons, hawks, and gryphons took to the sky with boulders and dropped the some were being shot down while others returned for another bolder. they were going down fast due to the shot by arrows i put away my sward and red my bow

"are you with me" Peter as Orious he looked at him

"to the death" he replied

"and you" he turned to me.

"forever and always" i replied he smiled at me, he lift up his sword .

"FOR NARNIA AND FOR ASLAN" he yelled before we raced onto the battle felid the others cheered and followed in suit we rode to the centre of the felid where i began to ready and arrow and aiming i looked at Peter and nodded i began to shoot half o f my arrows until i took my sward out and began to fight. minotaur's and hags met my blade and fell to the ground . i duelled wither swards men but ultimately won before moving onto the next.

i saw Peter grab a spire and run across the felid taking a moment i looked up the Phoenix was set free and a flying had was trying to kill it i fought of more minotaur's and saw that the Phoenix was alight it flew down drawing a line of fire between us and the Witches arm burning many who tried to cross it. we began to cheer we had the upper hand yet it was short lived though as it was diminished by the Witches wad and she came through.

"FALL BACK DRAW THEM TO THE ROCKS!" Peter ordered we did so falling back to the rocks while still fighting saving other soldiers when the horn was sounded that was the signal for Edmund and Mr Beaver to have the archers ready arrived at the rocks and arrows above took out followers the rest we dealt with. in front of me i saw Peters unicorn fall to the ground and Peter thrown off i halted willow and jumping down.

"your okay come on" i helped him up we looked behind us Orious and a rhino was head straight for us the past and headed for the witch who was still on her chariot.

"Stop" we yelled but the carried on the rhino was taken down Orious carried on and killed minotaur's and others before reaching her the fought but the Witch used her wand and turned him to stone.

"Willow go to the cliff wait for my call" she still stood there.

"now! I'm not taking you out of the fight but i don't want to lose you please Willow!"

"very well my Princess but i will return if i feel the need to" she left i began to fight again.

"Peter a little help" we fought back to back until we stopped looking around at the fight two gryphons headed for the witch one was killed while the other turned to stone and smashed. Peter covered m with his shield standing back up i saw a minotaur head for me i fought him he knocked me to the ground and my helmet came of i hurled my sward i his chest him falling to the ground. i retrieved my sward the witch was coming towards us.

"EDMUND GET OUT OF HERE. GET THE GIRLS AND GET THEM HOME" Peter ordered i hadn't even noticed that he had joined the battle. i fought a hag while Peter took a minotaur, we became distracted when a powerful force of magic rippled. Edmund ignored Peters order and had gone up against the witch, time seemed to slow down as the two fought and he was stabbed.

"Edmund" we yelled i finished off and took the general while Peter was with the witch i finished with the general slashing him across the shoulder most of my hair now out its braid i brushed it away from my face. Peter fought the witch her having two sward nearly killed him crossing her blade missing as he bend backwards but continued. A huge roar halted everything i looked to the top of the cliff father was stood there.

"impossible" i muttered but was really smiling he was alive yet i had no idea how, reinforcements made and appearance i saw Susan and Lucy as well i smiled then continued fighting. stampede of others race toward the battle at hand helping as they went i stopped fighting when out  the corner of my eye Peter was sent to the ground. he was then pinned by a sward going though her chain mail the witch but he never gave up using his shield but that was knocked away.

the witch ready to kill Peter a gust of wind past me i saw it was my father he attacked the Witch sending her to the floor.

"Peter" i rushed to his side lifting out the sward and giving him a hand up i hugged him before we watched Aslan finish the Witch off. he turned to us and came closer.

"it is finished" Thank Aslan.

"dad" i smiled and dropped my sward running and hugging him he chuckled but nuzzled into me.

"i thought you were dead, what happened." i asked, i was now crying but it was happy tears.

"stories of what has past should not bother you my dear. come we have much to do" we headed to one statue dad breathed on him and he came back to life i saw the sibling crowded around Edmund was back to being healthy which i had a feeling was Lucy's doing she smiled and picked up her cordial and ran to other injured. Father brought figures back to life while i made my way to Edmund.

"you scolded him yet" i teased Peter they laughed i knelt down and hugged Edmund.
