Peter gave Lucy an apologetic look. "I don't suppose saying sorry would quite do the trick?" "No" said Lucy calmly, she bent down and quickly made a snowball then she threw it straight at Peter and it hit him square in the face. "But that might!" She said with a cheeky grin. We all started throwing snowballs at each other. It was such fun!

Peter threw a snowball and it hit Edmund. "Ow! Stop it!" He said angrily. We had all suddenly come to the realization that Edmund had lied about him and Lucy coming here. "You little liar!" Peter remarked. "You didn't believe her either!" Said Edmund defensively. Peter stepped forward "Apologize to Lucy." Edmund didn't move and he didn't say a word. Peter moved even closer threateningly "say your sorry!" He demanded. "All right, I'm sorry!" He said sheepishly. "It's all right, some little children just don't know when to stop pretending" she stated proudly. I couldn't help but chuckle.

Peter had gone back into the wardrobe and emerged with fluffy coats! He handed Susan a long brown one, Lucy a lighter brown one that was equally as long, Henry a dark grey one and me a light grey one. He then proceeded to hand Edmund a huge fluffy girls coat, which I could not help but giggle at. "But that's a girls coat!" Edmund remarked in disgust. "I know" Peter said and shoved it into his arms. He then put on a dark brown one for himself.

"Well, now that we are warm, where do you suppose we go?" I asked. "Ooh! I'd like you all to meet Mr Tumnus!" Lucy exclaimed. "Well, Mr Tumnus it is!" We set off down the snowy hill, following Lucy's lead. As we approached the door I noticed it had been kicked in. It looked like the house had been broken into! Lucy obviously saw this too because she started sprinting towards the broken down door. We all ran close behind, not knowing what dangers could be around. As we made our way in all I could see was mess, the place had been littered. There were things thrown all over the place. Smashed dishes and torn paintings. It was a completed wreck.

I could tell Lucy was trying her best to fight back the tears. Peter made his way over to one of the columns supporting the roof. I just realized that on it was a note. Peter ripped the note off and started to read.

"Ok, now we really should go back!" Susan exclaimed and I couldn't help but wonder if she was right

"Ok, now we really should go back!" Susan exclaimed and I couldn't help but wonder if she was right. "But what about Mr Tumnus!?" Lucy cried. I felt a pang of guilt and was about to step in but Susan beat me to it. "He was arrested just for being with a human! I'm not sure there's much we can do!" "You don't understand do you? I'm the human! She must have found out he helped me!"  I could see a guilty look appear on my twins face, as much as he tried to hide it, I could tell he knew something we did not. "Maybe we could call the police" Peter sometimes does not use his brain to the best of his ability. "These are the police" I stated, taking the piece of paper off of him. I read through it myself, just to make sure we hadn't missed anything.


All of a sudden a little red bird perched on a tree branch outside. It was quite sweet actually. "Pssst!" I was shocked! "Did that bird just psst us?" Susan had read my mind. Peter went out the door and we followed him, none of us wanting to be alone. We all stood close together as we heard branches snapping and shuffling coming from all directions. I found myself grabbing Henry's arm and he held onto me, obviously neither of us realized at that point what we were doing. The shuffling grew louder and my heart kept speeding up. If it wasn't for Henry, I probably would be collapsed on the floor.


All of a sudden, from behind a pile of snow, a beaver popped it's head out. I breathed a sigh of relief and my heart started to steady. I suddenly realized I was still holding onto Henry. I let go quickly and he did the same. Peter knelt down and started calling the beaver closer to us. He held out his hand as the beaver started to approach. "I ain't gonna smell it if that's what you want!" Oh my, did that beaver just talk? I couldn't help but laugh. This land just kept getting stranger and stranger. "Lucy Pevensie?" The beaver said quite seriously. Lucy stopped smiling and approached the beaver. The beaver pulled out a handkerchief. It looked quite familiar. The beaver held it out for Lucy to take. She inspected the handkerchief and then exclaimed "this is the hankie I gave to Mr Tum-" she was cut off by the beaver "Tumnus. He asked me to give it to you if you ever came back." "Is he alright Lucy asked . "Further in" the beaver said cautiously and looked around as if the trees were watching us. He started to walk away, he went over the snow pile and disappeared. Henry, Lucy, Peter and I all started to follow him. Susan grabbed Peter by the arm. "What are you doing?!" She asked. "He said he knows the faun." Peter stated. "He a beaver," she glared at him "he shouldn't be saying anything!" "Are you lot coming or what?" the beaver asked impatiently. "Yes we were just talking" Henry said, clearly annoyed at the beavers impatience.


Peter, Lucy, Henry and I were all fed up with the arguing so we just decided to follow this beaver. Susan and Edmund had not choice but to follow. He led us through more woods, I felt we were getting closer as I smelt smoke. We went over one last hill, and I was completely exhausted. My heart was beating extremely fast and I was afraid I was going to pass out. I was very glad when  I saw a very sweet little little dam. That must be the beavers home. It was not too far but I still felt extremely weak. I collapsed onto Henry, who was next to me, and thankfully he caught me. "Lily! Are you ok?" That got the attention of everyone. I gave a weak nod but everyone could tell that I could not walk. Peter walked over to me, picked me up and started carrying me towards the dam.


As we arrived an angry female voice shouted "Beaver is that you? I've been worried sick! If I find out you've been with badger again-" She came out and saw the six of us with Mr Beaver. "Oh my, those aren't badgers! Oh I never thought I'd live to see this day! Oh goodness my fur! You couldn't have given me ten minutes warning?!" She snapped angrily at Mr Beaver. "I would have given you a year if I thought it would have helped!" Everyone giggled, this was extremely funny to watch. They led us inside, me still in Peter's arms. They had a very cute little home. Pictures strung upon the walls, a little kitchen and dining room, a little seating area and a bedroom. We were all seated at their little dining table. I thankfully had enough strength to sit, but Henry still sat close by just in case.

Mrs Beaver was cooking a meal and Mr beaver was sitting at the table asking questions and telling stories. For a moment it made me feel like I was home again. Mother always cooking, father always telling jokes. I missed it so much. My thoughts were interrupted by a bang on the table and there in front of me sat a very unappetising meal of fish and chips, yum. Once Mrs beaver had served us all she sat next to mr beaver, and started to tell us some very interesting things about a prophecy.....
