"What did you say your name was again?" Peter asked with a slight narrow of his eyes.
"Hero," she replied with her chin up high as she looked him straight in the eyes.

HERO WAS RIGHT ABOUT NOT TRUSTING THE TELMARINES. Glozelle rode back towards the Telmarine army as a few soldiers rushed over to Peter and Hero. Peter spun to face them as Hero drew her sword out and plunged it deep into one of them.
"To arms, Telmar!" Glozelle bellowed. "To arms!" The Telmarines raised their weapons in response and let out a battle cry. "Cavalry...charge!"
The Telmarines charged as Hero's throat closed up in fear. Peter looked back at Caspian with a nod and the Telmarine Prince quickly climbed on his horse. "Caspian, be careful!" Hero called out to the boy who raised a hand in acknowledgement as he rode back into the How.
Hero and Peter locked eyes as she clenched her fist to calm herself. Peter reached down and grabbed it, relaxing her tense nerves as he laced their fingers together.
"You going to tell me not to fight again?" She attempted to joke, her voice shaky.
Peter shook his head, a slight smile curving his lips. "I want you to fight right next to me. Side by side. Like equals."

"NOW!" Susan screamed as the archers released their hold on the arrows, letting it fall into the pit like rain. The arrows pierced through several Telmarines, killing them instantly.
Hero squinted to see a bit further, and she saw Caspian leading the Narnians out into the field and circling around the Telmarine cavalry.
