Peter, Susan, myself, and Caspian, carried by griffins, fly in and land. Caspian flies low and kills a soldier on the way. Susan shoots him. They land and Peter kills a Telmarine soldier. Peter, Susan, myself, and Caspian climb down a wall Caspian catches me as I land on the ground, smiling in thanks Caspian goes to the window and knocks gently.
"Professor?" Caspian whispers as he opens the window and steps into his Professor's study. Peter, myself, and Susan follow. Caspian finds a pair of glasses on the table. "I have to find him."
"You don't have time. You have to get to the gatehouse." Peter growls.
"You wouldn't even be here without him. And neither would I." Caspian said a fierce look in his eyes. Peter and Susan exchange glances. I shake my head and sigh.
"You take care of Miraz. He will make it to the gatehouse in time." I said looking to everyone before motioning for Caspian to go.
"Crescent you aren't in charge." Peter growled as Caspian left.
"Oh, I'm not, but then who is the true heir Peter, because last time I checked I was, not you, so get your head out of your arse and start thinking, you signed all the Narnian's death warrants." I growled back before exiting and going down the hall and vanishing into the darkness.
I walk around the castle, my eyes darting everywhere before sensing a disturbance. I make my way towards my brother sister seeing them listening as people talk inside the room.
"Put the sword down, Caspian. I don't want to do this." A woman says and I instantly let the door slam open. I walk in my staff raised pointing at the woman.
"We don't want you to either!" I growled as Peter and Susan enter the bedroom. Peter draws his sword, and Susan aims an arrow at Prunaprismia.
"This used to be a private room." The man who I believe is Miraz says with a sigh.
"Caspian, what are you doing? You're supposed to be at the gatehouse." Peter growls looking towards Caspian.
"No! Tonight, for once, I want the truth!" Caspian shouts ignoring Peter, a look of despair in his eyes. Caspian turns back to Miraz. "Did you kill my father?"
Miraz lets a smirk glide across his face. "Now we get to it."
I watch the woman hesitate as she looks at Miraz. "You told me your brother died in his sleep."
"That was more or less true." Miraz says with a shrug of his shoulders. Caspian takes a few steps towards Miraz, and Miraz is forced to step back against the window.
Caspian stares at Miraz with pure hatred and asks him. "Did you kill my father?"
"Caspian, this won't make things any better." I whispered taking a small step towards him. "Don't drop to his level Caspian."
"We Telmarines would have nothing had we not taken it. Your father knew that as well as anyone." Miraz states as his wife lowers the crossbow a little.
"How could you?" She questions softly.
"For the same reason you will pull that trigger!" Miraz shouts, as he starts walking forward, and Caspian slowly steps back.
"Stop! Stay right there!" I order as my eyes glow gold, but I am ignored.
"For our son! You must choose. Do you want our child to be king or do you want him to be like Caspian here? Fatherless!" Miraz shouts making the woman cry in anguish.
"No!" The woman shouts and shoots the crossbow. I raise my hand and stop the arrow from hitting Caspian. Caspian looks to me and nods in thanks as I turn and see Miraz gone.
Peter, myself, Susan, and Caspian run through the halls. Peter runs down a different hall. "Peter!" I shout and Peter looks back.
"Our army is just outside!" He shouts back. I shake my head as we begin following him. I watch as my brother runs through the courtyard and kills two Telmarine soldiers. "Now, Ed, now! Signal the troops!"
"I'm a little busy right now, Pete!" Edmund shouts down to us. I see Peter try to open the gate.
"Peter, it's too late! We have to call it off while we still can!" Susan shouts and Peter looks to her.
"No, I can still do this! Help me!"
Susan and Caspian help Peter turn the wheel to open the gate. "Just who exactly are you doing this for, Peter?" I asked glaring.
They continue turning the wheel. I look up seeing Edmund's torch working. I hear Glenstorm's shouts and the Narnians charge into the castle. Asterius uses his horns to smash through the first gate. The Narnians charge past Peter, Susan, myself, and Caspian. They draw their weapons and run to join the battle.
"For Narnia!!" Peter shouts. The Narnians charge through the courtyard and start fighting. Up top, a Telmarine with a crossbow aims at Peter. Edmund slides down and knocks the soldier over. Peter looks up.
"Ed!" Peter shouts as I see my younger brother turn about to be shot. But thankfully he gets away quickly.
Looking around I shake my head sadly seeing some troops being killed. Their deaths hurting me again, their wounds inflicting themselves on me. "This is it, isn't it, papa." I whispered as I feel the warmth of Aslan flow through me.
With my tears falling down my face I wave my hand allowing an image of me to appear fighting alongside my troops. I hide my self in a dark corner, still using my powers as I kill the Telmarines. The gate starts closing. Asterius runs over and holds the gate open. Peter watches.
"Fall back! Retreat!" I hear Peter shout. Peter runs around telling all the Narnians to retreat. Glenstorm swings Susan onto his back on the way out.
"Caspian and Crescent!" Susan shouts as she sees my projection still fighting.
"I'll find him!" Peter shouts as he sees my projection grab a random horse and race it outside. Caspian and Cornelius emerge, with Caspian holding the reigns of an extra horse. Peter kicks a soldier, jumps onto the horse.
Peter barley makes it out before Asterius collapses and the gate shuts. Many Narnians are still trapped inside. Peter and Reepicheep are the last to exit. Peter looks back in horror. Glenstorm nods to one of his sons. The drawbridge starts going up. Holding back tears, Peter looks back at the Narnians and hesitates. Then he rides away. But suddenly his screams of fear reach me.
"Crescent!" Peter shouts as he sees the projection of me disappear.
"I'm sorry," I whispered as my eyes flashed gold and the Narnians that were with me vanished in the night, all of them now standing with their comrades. I turn and look at the Telmarines.
"Crescent!" I hear Caspian shout, his voice filled with despair. I took a shaky breath in and stood tall. There, the would be King came walking over to me with a sneer on his face.
"Queen Crescent is it?" He spits as I stare at him with a blank stare.
"No, it's High Priestess and High Queen Crescent the true heir of Narnia, you would be King, you should show some respect to those of a higher title," I hissed, my eyes flashed red, not gold, the dark magic appearing around us as they frozen to their spots, the air around us began spinning, it is suffocating the men, the painful screams of those who have passed filling their ears, the fear smashing into them, but they stood strong.
The would be King shouted for them to shoot me and they did that, only two getting me, one in my stomach and one in my right leg. But the damage to his army was done. I appeared outside the castle and ran forward. Peter and the others looked back and saw me approaching. I jumped onto Caspian's horse and ordered them to go.
