A/N Hey lol jk on that last update XD. I fooled you. Nah im just kidding i actually put this on hold but ironically i had time to update. Sorry if the editing is off im sitting in my english class typing this.
We had been walking for quiet sometime. I walked behind Peter and Caspian but infront of Susan and Lucy. We came to the edge of the woods where it opened up to a large meadow. At the edge of the meadow stood Aslans How. I marveled at it's beuty. We walked forward until we reached the walkway. The centaurs lined up on the sides and drew their swords, in a sign of respect. Caspian and I allowed the Kings and Queens to go first before following.
We entered the tomb to see our troops hard at work preparing weapons. Swords, bows, and arrows.
"It may not be what you are used to but it is defensive." Caspian explained as the two kings looked around.
"Peter you may want to see this." I hears Susan call out. I looked up and saw Susan standing near a wall with painting on it.
There were images of the Kings and Queens. There was one if Susan and Lucy on Aslan's back. The one that upset me the most was the one of me. It showed me in the siege they glorified it.
"It's us." Susan spoke.
"What is this place?" Lucy turned to Caspian a bewildered look on her face.
"You don't know?" Caspian asked rather surprised. I didn't know either. Caspian began to lead us down the tunnel that lie before us. My eyes lingered on the carving of Aslan.
"Are you coming Willow?" I turned and saw Edmund waiting for me. I slowly followed him. We eventually came to an open sort room. In the middle stood the stone table. All the nightmares and all the fear came ruching back to me. Lucy slowly crept forward laying her hand on the table.
"He must know what he's doing." she said turning to look at us.
"I think it's up to us now." Peter said.
~♤~
We gathered in the room from earlier. Narnians and the kings queens and Caspian were scattered throughout the room. Lucy and I sat on the stone table looking on.
"It's only a matter of time. Miraz's men and war machines are on their way." Peter began speaking. Everyone quieted down drawing their attention to the young king.
"That means those same men aren't protecting the castle." He continued.
"What do suppose we do your majesty?" Repicheap asked standing tall.
"We need to get ready-"
"We need to prepare-" Peter and Caspian began at the same time. Peter turned and looked at Caspian. The look he gave him made me frown slightly.
"Our only hope is to strike them before they strike us." Peter turned back adressing us.
"That's crazy no one has ever taken that castle." Caspian spoke up.
"There's always a first time," Peter said. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
"Well have the element of surprise." Trumpkin spoke. I turned to him my eyes softing.
"We have the advantage here." Caspian tried to defend his point. I agreed with him. If we attacked Miraz we would become dead men.
"If we dig in we can probably hold them off indefinitely," Susan spoke up. Peter turned and gave her a look.
"I for one feel safer underground." Trufflehunter said. I turned and gave him a smile. He was a gentle soul not made for war.
"Look I appreciate what you've done here but this isn't a fortress its a tomb," I did however agree with that statement. This place may provide cover but it didn't provide protection.
"Yes and if they're smart they'll just wait and starve us out," Edmund spoke up from where he sat.
"If I can get your troops in can u handle the guards?" Peter turned to Glenstorm. I was becoming frustrated. I was his general I was his second in command and not onee had he asked my opinion.
"Or die trying my leige." Glenstorm answered. I let out a groan as Lucy spoke up making Peter turn to us.
"Thats what I'm worried about." Lucy spoke softly.
"Sorry?" Peter aksed. He had a nasty look on his face. This was one time he made feel the urge to hit him with a blunt object...Repeatedly.
"Your all acting like there's only two options. Dying her or dying there." Lucy spoke her concern.
"I'm not really sure you've been listening Lou." Peter said dismissing his little sister. I had enough.
"No Peter your not listening. You act like you know these people. You act like you know whats good for them!" My voice staying firm but slightly raising.
"And I suppose you know them any better?" he snarled at me.
" You were here when the Telemarines invaded! And yet you didn't stop them!"he yelled. I recoiled at that and blind rage consumed me. I took a deep breath before continuing.
"I was there. I was there when they first came. I saw my comrades fall, they fought till their last breaths. I should be dead right now Peter! I had an arrow aimed at my heart and Oreius jumped infront of it. Do you think it's easy being immortal? I see people around me dying and I cant do anything to stop it!" I ranted. His face softened but then hardened again.
" If I could I wouldn't send these people to war if it was needless. The only thing that would happen would be death Peter." I finished my rant.
"The best thing we can do is to wait for Aslan."
"I think we've waited for Aslan long enough." Peter scowled. I had enough I couldn't be around him right now. I stormed past him shoving his shoulder on the way.
With war there is always death, and it's always pointless. But if i could I would stop as much as I could.
A/N Shots have been fired! I honestly think that Peter was a douche in this chapter. But if I have more time I will update again.
