In the tent I put on a silk nightgown. I was rather tired because it was a long day. I took my brown hair out of its plat and let my hair reach my lower back.

I lay down on my bed and look up at the top of the tent. I soon fell asleep.

I awoke later to voices quietly whispering. I looked to my side and saw Lucy and Suzan talking about taking a walk.

"Mind if I join you?" I whispered and Lucy smiled and got up. I put on my white cloak and walked out after the sisters.

The air was cold, but not as cold as it always has been. It was a nice kind of cold. It was dark, but you could still see thanks to the stars.

We saw Aslan walking and I nodded to the two indicating that we should follow him.

We followed him shortly when he spoke up. "Why are you following me children?" He asked almost sadly.

"We couldn't sleep and we decided to go for a walk. Then we saw you and thought we should join you." Lucy explained.

"Well, I could use the company." He said gravely and we hurried to catch up.

We walked in silence for a while till Aslan broke it and said: "Thank you children, but from here on I must continue to journey on my own."

We each took a turn to hug him because the sad mood got to us all, and he walked through the woods. 

Suzan, Lucy and I waited till Aslan was a while in front of us and then followed him.
Of course we remained hidden and out of sight. We hid behind a large pile up of rocks.

A large group of ugly creatures, obviously, who were evil by the look of them, were gathered around the stone table. Aslan approached the table as all the animals taunted him and made fun of him.

"Tonight, evil shall win!" Jadis cried throwing her hands in the air. Lucy grabbed my arm.

"Bind him!" She yelled and they passed around ropes. Anger boiled my blood as they bound up our king. That evil little witch! (Who is an absolute bitch) 
How dare she treat the rightful king of Narnia with such disrespect.

Suzan grabbed my other arm to keep me from blasting the crap out of that woman.

The evil creatures started to drag him up the stairs. "Wait!" Jadis yelled over the crowd. Will she stop this? I thought. "Shave him!" She screamed and now the waterfall exploded. Watching him be shamed and helpless, letting us just watch, being helpless. Never before science I had my power did I ever feel so utterly useless.

I could not watch any further. I turned away with my back facing the seen. I fell on my knees and sobbed. I heard a gasp from Lucy and I knew it was done.

"I'm sorry Aslan. I'm sorry." I whispered as I held Suzan and Lucy close as we cried.
