          "It's only a matter of time. Miraz's men and war machines are on their way. That means those same men aren't protecting  his castle." Peter says trying to be convincing.

"What do you propose we do, your majesty?" Reep asks in all calmly respect.

"We need to get ready for it." Caspian responds.
"To start planning." Peter says at the exact same time. This was a flash of awkwardness. "Our only hope is to strike them before they strike us." Peter says defending himself.

"Peter we're not the same Narnian soldiers we were a few thousand years ago." I saying trying to be respectful.

"Y/n is right, this is crazy no one has ever taken that castle." Caspian says agreeing with me.

"There's always a first time." Peter says.

"We'll have the element of surprise." Trumpkin says. (he is the dwarf who befriends the Pevensies in the beginning of everything.)

"We have the advantage here!" Caspian argues.

"If we dig in, we could probably hold them off indefinitely." Susan says stepping up.

"I for one feel safer underground." Trufflehunter states his opinion in the conversation.

"Look I appreciate what you've both done here, but this ain't a fortress it's a tomb." Peter says.

"Yes. And if they're smart the Telmarines will just wait and starve us out." Edmund agrees with Peter. Of course he agrees with this stupid plan.

"We could collect nuts!" Pattertwig says confidently.

"Yes! And throw them at the Telmarines. Shut up!" Reep says quickly quieting the squirrel. "I think you know where I stand, sire."

"If I get your troops in, can you handle the guards." Peter says walking towards the lead centaur. He looked at Caspian then me then back down to Peter.

"Or die trying, my liege." Glenstorn says.

"Thats what i'm worried about." Lucy says as all attention gets drawn to her.

"Sorry?" Peter asks confused.

"You're all acting like there's only two options. Dying here, or dying there." She responds with.

"I'm not sure you've really been listening Lu." Peter says. I was confused on how Lucy could have any suggestion on battlefield tactics. I looked over to Caspian but he had his dirty eyes fixed on Peter. But I could feel a pair of cold eyes staring at me, thats when I turned to Edmund. Once he realized I had caught him looking at me he turned away from my direction, pathetic.

"No, you're not listening, or have you forgotten who really defeated the White Witch Peter?" Lucy says.

"I think we've waited for Aslan long enough." Peter says following with him leaving the room in complete and utterly awkward silence. Once the room was cleared and everyone fit in small training I went to find Peter.

"Peter. Hey." I said to him. He looked up at me in shock. I guess I've never formally talked to him yet:

"Yes, what is it Y/n?" He asks calmly.

"I don't think this is the best option we have for a plan." I saw trying to be nice.

"Y/n enough! Okay, we're doing it at night fall." He says aggressively to me.
