I don't own any rights. C. S. Lewis does.
(They walk out to the fighting area
again. Peter attacks quickly, but Miraz parries. Miraz starts hitting Peter with his shield. Peter falls, and Miraz runs towards him. Peter blocks and then trips Miraz. They both recover. Peter knocks Miraz' sword out of his hand. They continue fighting, Miraz using his shield. Peter tries to stab Miraz but fails. Miraz knocks Peter's sword out of his hand. Miraz tries to slam his shield into Peter, but Peter catches it. Peter twists Miraz' shield behind him. Miraz elbows Peter in the face and then pushes him into a pillar. Miraz picks up his sword and swings, but Peter blocks it with his vambraces. Peter stands up and punches Miraz' wounded leg. Miraz yells and falls down, dropping his sword.)
Miraz: Respite! Respite!
Susan: Hulllooo!(shouting wildly) What's happening now? (Everyone stares at her) It's in the book, Caspian says it.
Edmund: Now's no time for chivalry, Pete!
(Peter hesitates. Miraz holds up his hand preparing for the blow. Peter lowers his arm and starts walking back to his side. After Pete's back is turned, Miraz grabs his sword and runs towards Peter.)
Edmund: Look out!
(Peter dodges just and time, grabs the sword, twists it around, and stabs Miraz beneath the arm. Miraz gasps and falls to his knees. Peter, holding Miraz' sword, hesitates again.)
Miraz: What's the matter, boy? Too cowardly to take a life?
Peter: It's not mine to take.
(Peter looks at Caspian. Caspian steps forward, and Peter hands Miraz' sword to him. Caspian slowly raises the sword.)
Miraz: Perhaps I was wrong. It seems you have the makings of a good Telmarine king after all.
(Miraz bows his head. Caspian raises the sword, screams, and stabs… the ground.)
Caspian: Not one like you. Keep your life, but I am giving the Narnians back their kingdom.
(Caspian walks away and the Narnians cheer. Sopespian walks over and helps Miraz up.)
Miraz: Kill Susan now!
Sopespian: My king.
Miraz: Now, or else. I will deal with you when this is over.
(Behind Miraz' back, Sopespian pulls out Susan's arrow.)
Sopespian: It is over.
Susan: Wait, stop the music, Lord Glozelle kills Miraz.
(Miraz gasps and falls over, the arrow sticking into his back. Sopespian runs up and takes Miraz' sword.)
Sopespian: Treachery! They shot him! They murdered our king! To arms!
(Glozelle rides back towards the Telmarine army. A few soldiers rush at Peter. He turns and kills them.)
Glozelle: To arms, Telmar! To arms!
(The Telmarines raise their weapons and cheer.)
Glozelle: Cavalry… charge!
(The Telmarines charge. Peter looks back at Caspian. He rides back into the How on horseback where hundreds of Narnians wait inside.)
Caspian: Narnians! Charge!
(With Caspian leading the way, the Narnians charge down a tunnel beneath the battlefield.)
Susan: I am confused, how on earth did everyone suddenly get in the tunnel so fast?
Peter: One, two, three…
Caspian: Four, five, six…
Susan: seven, eight, lay them straight,nine, ten, a big fat hen.
(The Narnian archers put arrows to the string.)
Peter: Seven, eight, nine… Get ready!
Susan: eleven,twelve dig and delve.
Caspian: Now!
Susan: Thirteen, fourteen, maids a'courting
(Archers shoot)
(The Narnians underground begin smashing the stone pillars. The ground collapses and most of the Telmarine horses fall into the pit.)
Susan: Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen.
(The arrows fall into the pit, hitting Telmarines. At the end of the underground tunnel, two dwarfs lower a platform, and Caspian leads the Narnians out into the sun, and circle around to the Telmarine cavalry. A soldier climbs out of the pit, and sees Reepicheep in armor.)
Soldier: You're… a mouse
Reepicheep: You people have no imaginations!
(The battle continues. Peter looks up at Susan and she waves.)
Peter: Lucy…
9Peter looks at the Telmarine army. He raises his sword.)
Peter: Back to the How!
(The Narnians begin retreating towards Aslan's How.)
Sopespian: Cut off their escape!
(The Telmarine trebuchets launch rocks at the how. Debris from the How falls down and blocks the entrance. Rocks fall around the archers.)
Susan refuses to fall. Trumpkin tries catch her. But since Susan does not fall it is hard for him to do so. They look around and see they are surrounded, and the Telmarines are closing in.)
Sopespian: Crush them all.
(Edmund draws his sword. They all exchange glances. Edmund pushes Susan off. Trumpkin misses in catching her this time. Then they charge, Peter leading the way. A few Telmarines gang up on Caspian, and he falls into the pit. Glozelle walks over with a pike and lifts it. He sees that it is Caspian, and hesitates. Then, a tree root grabs him and pulls him away. Peter helps Caspian out of the pit… and they see that the trees have come. Telmarines continue launching rocks, and one of them knocks over a tree. Another tree sticks a root into the ground. It comes up further down, taking out a trebuchet.)
Peter: For Aslan!
The Narnians charge.
Soldier: We can defeat them if we draw them to the river!
(The Telmarines retreat. They reach the bridge and start crossing. Halfway down, Sopespian brings the army to a screeching halt. Lucy stands on the other side, apparently alone. She draws her dagger and smiles. Then, Aslan joins Lucy. Sopespian stares more. He looks ahead, and then back, and then…)
Sopespian: Charge!
(The Telmarines charge towards Aslan. The lion roars and the Telmarines stop. The water beneath the bridge starts behaving strangely. Then it shoots up and forms the river-god. The river-god lifts up the bridge and soldiers fall off. Sopespian stands alone on the bridge in the river-god's hands. He swings his sword wildly as the water comes crashing down on him. The Telmarines climb out of the water, handing their swords to the Narnians. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Caspian kneel before the lion.)
Aslan: Rise, kings and queens of Narnia.
(Peter and Edmund rise.)
Aslan: All of you.
Susan: I couldn't find you earlier.
Caspian: I do not think I am ready.
Aslan: It's for that very reason I know that you are.
(They hear music. Several mice walk up, carrying Reepicheep on a little stretcher. Lucy gives Reepicheep a drop from her cordial. He breathes and sits up.)
Susan:Mice!!!!!!(she screams and runs away)
Reepicheep: Oh, thank you, Your Majesty…
(Reepicheep sees the lion.)
Reepicheep: Oh, hail Aslan! It is a great honor to be—
(Reeicheep tries to bow but stumbles forward. He looks behind and realizes that his tail is missing.)
Reepicheep: I am completely out of countenance. I must crave your indulgence for appearing in this unseemly fashion. Perhaps a drop more?
(He looks up at Lucy's cordial.)
Lucy: I don't think it does that.
Reepicheep: You can have a go.
Aslan: It becomes you well, Small One.
Reepicheep: All the same, great king, I regret that I must withdraw. For a tail is the honor and glory of a mouse.
Aslan: Perhaps you think too much of your honor, friend.
Reepicheep: Well, it‟s not just the honor. It‟s also great for balance… and climbing… and grabbing things.
(Aslan smiles. The other mice draw their swords and hold them to their tails.)
Peepiceek: I am Peepicheep. May it please your high Majesty, we will not bear the shame of wearing an honor denied to our chief.
(Aslan laughs.)
Aslan: Not for your honor, but for the love of your people…
Susan(comes back): Don't forget and the love long ago that your people showed Aslan at the stone table.
(Reepicheep's tail grows back.)
Reepicheep: Oh, look! Thank you, thank you, my liege! I will treasure it always! From this day forward, it will serve as a great reminder of my huge humility.
(Aslan laughs.)
Aslan: Now, where is this dear little friend you've told me so much about?
(Trumpkin looks over nervously. He slowly walks over and bows before the lion. Aslan roars and Trumpkin shudders.)
Lucy: Do you see him now?
(The Narnians triumphantly enter the castle. Fireworks are set off.
Caspian walks down the steps at the courtyard, and sees Aslan talking to Peter and Susan. They look over at him.)
Caspian: We are ready. Everyone has assembled.
(Outside the castle, all the Telmarine people and the Narnians have gathered.)
(The door in the air scene)
(Peter and Susan look at each other. Aslan looks over at them. Peter steps forward.)
Peter: We'll go.
Edmund: We will?
Peter: Come on. Our time's up.
(Peter walks over to Caspian and offers his sword.)
Peter: After all, we're not really needed here anymore.
(Caspian takes the sword.)
Caspian: I will look after it until your return.
Susan:Ha HA! (she is stared at) You were joking right?
Caspian: Well, no.
Peter: This is our last trip.
Lucy: We're not?
Peter: You two are.
(Peter looks at Aslan.)
Peter: At least, I think he means you to.
Lucy (to Aslan): But why? Did they do something wrong?
Aslan: Quite the opposite, dear one. But all things have their time. Your brother and sister have learned what they can from this world. Now it's time for them to live in their own.
Peter: It's alright, Lu. It's not how I thought it would be, but it's alright. One day you'll see too. Come on.
(Peter shakes Glenstorm's hand. Edmund, Lucy, Trumpkin, and Cornelius bow. Lucy curtsies to Trumpkin and he nods. Then they embrace. Susan walks up to Caspian.)
Susan: Well, bye, Benji.
Caspian: I wish we had more time together.
Susan: I am glad we didn't.
Caspian: Why not?
Susan: You are sooo weird Benji.
(Susan walks away)(Every one stares at her)
Susan: What?
Caspian: You are suppose to come bmack and kiss me.
Susan: What? I am soo glad I am not following the script then.(she runs out the door.)
Lucy: I'm sure when I'm older I'll understand.
Edmund: I'm older and don't think I want to understand.
(Lucy takes once look back at Aslan, and then Edmund, Peter, and Lucy walk through the door in the air,Susan already having gone through, and back to London. The train arrives. The geeky boy boards and then looks back.)
Susan: Slow poks!
Geeky Boy (to Susan): Aren't you coming, Phyllis?
Susan: Who is Phyllis? I told you my name was Anna.
(Peter, Edmund, and Lucy look confused. Then they all get their luggage and board the train. Edmund looks in his bag…)
Edmund: Do you think there's any way we could get back?
Susan: Yeah, In the Voyage of the Dawn Treader, you get through the picture on the wall. Hey, what's your name?
Geeky Boy:Warren.
Susan: Cool.
Warren: Since this movie is over, and you are not in the next one, will you go out on a date with me?
Susan: Yes.
(The others look at him. Edmund looks up.)
Edmund: I've left my new torch in Narnia!
(They laugh, and train starts to move)
Susan: I was meaning to ask you Skandar, why, you had way less lines than in the book.
Edmund: Because.....
