Chapter 9 - Beavers Dam
"oh Blimey looks like the old girls got the kettle on nice cup of Rosy Lee" beaver shots as we look down a dam.
"it's lovely"
"its merely a trifle still got a lot to do it will look the business when it does though." we continued down, at some point even though i was a little mad i was holding onto his hand.
"beaver is that you I've been worried sick, if i find out you've been with badger again..." a woman's voice trailed off coming out of the dams
"oh, well those aren't badgers. oh i never thought i live to see the day. look at my fur you didn't think to give me 10 minutes warning" she scolded the last part, some of us giggled.
"i would have given you a week if i thought it would have helped." Mr Beaver replied
"well come inside well see if we can' get you some food and some civilised company" she wondered back inside, still holding Edmunds hand i pulled him. but he stopped.
"enjoying the scenery are we" Mr Beaver asked i was then aloud to pull him in. i took of my coat seen as it was warm ad sat down next to Su.
"isn't there anything we can do to help Tumnus?" Peter asked as Su came and sat back down with a pot.
"they will have taken him to the Witches house and well you know what they say there is few that go in there that come out again" Beaver replied Bea (nickname for Mrs Beaver) put a plate down.
"there you go Fish 'n' Chips. but there is hope dear lots of hope." Beaver coughs up his drink.
"there is a right lot more than hope... Aslan is on the move" who's Aslan i wondered
"who's Aslan" Ed questioned see this is why even when he's an idiot he's my best friend we think along the same line most of the time. Beaver started laughing repeating the line Ed just asked but Bea saw that we had no clue and hit him. he looked at us
"you don't know do ya?" Beaver stated
"well we haven't exactly been here long" i retorted
"well he's only the king of the whole wood, the top geezer. the real King of Narnia" Beaver put his hands up seeing if he could ring any bells
"he's been away for a very long time." Bea added
"but he's back and he's waiting near the stone table for ya" Beaver raised his voice
"he's waiting for us" Lucy replied
"your bloomin' joking they don't even know about the prophecy" he sighed looking at his wife.
"well then" she gestured for him to continued he huffed
"look Aslan's return. Tumnus' arrest, secret police its all happening because of you " he shouted.
"your blaming us" Su questioned but Bea was quick to reply.
"no, no not blaming thanking you."
"there's a prophecy when Adams flesh and Adams bone sits on Cair Paravel in throne the evil will be over and done." Beaver calms down and recites.
"you know that doesn't really Rhyme" Su sort of teased
"i know but that's no the point" he gave up.
"it has long been for told that two sons of Adam and Two daughters of Eve will defeat the white witch and restore peace to Narnia." she told us proudly.
"where does Genie come into this doesn't she have a part" Lucy asked seeing my sad look of course i was just someone along for the ride
"oh of course it also say about the protector and how she will help the Kings and Queens while battling her own daemons" Bea added i looked up.
"me? protect them, i can hardly look after myself let alone four others." i stressed
"and you think were the ones" Peter added
"you better be because Aslan's already fitted out your army." Beaver replied
"our Army?" Lucy asked
"mum sent us away so we wouldn't get caught up in a war." Susan told Peter.
"i think you've made a mistake, were not heroes" Peter turned to the beavers
"were from Finchley" Su added the beavers looked at each other.
"thanks for your hospitality but we really have to go" i told them standing up Susan followed.
"you can't just leave" beaver protested.
"he's right we have to help Mr Tumnus." Lucy looked up at the tree of us.
"it's out of our hands Lu I'm sorry but it's time the five of us were getting home. Ed?" we looked back to see that Ed wasn't there.
"Ed?" i questioned, the doo was wide open.
"I'm gonna kill him" Peter thinned his lips
"you might not have to, tell me has Edmund ever been to Narnia before" i gasped and grabbed my coat running out.
