I woke up by someone lightly shaking my shoulder. I opened my eyes, Lucy stood in my room with a candle in her hand. 'Alexa! Alexa! Come on, get out of bed!' she pulled my arm. I got up and followed lucy where she pulled me. 'Where are we going' I asked her. 'I'm going to introduce you to someone.'

We entered the spare room and Lucy opened the wardrobe door. A cold wind came out of the wardrobe, blowing out the candle. Lucy smiled and looked at me, I was completely startled. 'Well, come on.' Lucy pulled me into the wardrobe and closed it behind us. I tried not to trip over the long coats, but then I fell anyway; I fell into a pile of snow in the middle of the forest. I got up and looked around in complete surprise.

'Welcome to Narnia', she smiled. Lucy grabbed my hand.

We walked through the cold forest while Lucy told me about mr. Tumnus. 'Here we are' we stood in front of a wooden door in a stone wall. Lucy knocked on the door. The door opened slightly, revealing a man with curly hair and a little beard. 'Lucy?' the man said astonished, 'What are you doing here?'

'I wanted to see if you were all right and I wanted you to meet Alexa Thompson.' Mr Tumnus looked at me and I waved a little awkwardly. He looked back at Lucy before opening the door fully. It revealed Mr Tumnus fully now. He wasn't wearing a shirt, and he had goat legs. He stepped aside so we could come in; I tried to stay calm as I tried to comprehend the fact that I was currently in the home of a faun, in a magical forest, in a wardrobe in the spare room of the professors mansion.

'I'm sorry but you both can't stay for really long, I promised to have dinner with some friends.'

He gave us something to drink and we sat down by the open fire. We asked about the White Witch and he explained that he was successful in tryingto avoid the workers of the Witch.

After a while we had to leave, Mr Tumnus locked the door behind all of us and urged us to be extra careful. 'It was very nice to meet you, miss Alexa.' he said while taking my hand and placing a kiss on top of it. I smiled at him. 'The pleasure was all mine.' We walked into the woods and parted ways with mr. Tumnus after a while.

On our way back, Lucy suddenly ran ahead. I had to make a short sprint to catch up with her. 'Edmund? Oh Edmund!' She exclaimed at the boy standing in the middle of the snow. Lucy hugs her brother. 'We just saw mr Tumnus again and he is fine!' Only then Edmund noticed I was here, he looked just as confused as u was when I first got here. 'The White Witch hasn't found out almost him helping me!'

'The White Witch?'Edmund asked.

'She calls herself the queen of Narnia, but she really isn't.'

'Edmund?' I asked, 'Are you okay? You look awful.'

'Well, what did you expect?' he snapped, 'It's freezing! How do we get out of here?'

'Come on...' Lucy took a hold of Edmunds hand 'This way'

We made our way back to the wardrobe in the spare room.
