Legends of Caspian: Battle at the Bridge Part 1

Caspian sliced a branch in front of him in two as he threaded his way through the thick undergrowth. Behind him was Lydia, David, and Luke taking up the rear with an arrow on the string. Suddenly there was a snapping sound a muffled curse from behind them. Lydia's eyes widened and she drew a long knife from her side.
"There still on us," David whispered. His huge battle hammer was strapped over his back, and he looked ready to use it.
"Were almost to the bridge," Caspian whispered back. "Once were there we can use the firepowder to blow it up."
"Umm... the firepowder in my sack?" Luke said his eyes wide.
"Yeah," Caspian started, "Don't tell me..."
"I left it at Forgotten Tower," Luke finished.
"I told you not to tell me," Caspian hissed. His stride quickened and he viciously slashed at the walls of plants in front of him. Suddenly there was a tawng, followed by another twang, and an arrow suddenly sped past him. Caspian whipped around and tore his sword from his side. Luke appeared next to him.
"Got him," he whispered with a grin. He patted his longbow. Caspian ripped through the undergrowth and suddenly burst into the sunlight blinking. In front of him was a large wooden bridge. The four warriors quickly crossed to it nd then turned to make their stand. Blackfighters poured out of the forest and shot arrow after arrow at them. Caspian snapped the ones coming toward him with his sword, while Luke's red and green fletched arrows whizzed forward and everyone of them planted themselves squarely in the chest of an enemy archer. Then the Blackfighters swept towards them! A row of pikes stamped forward with a deathly tramp, tramp, tramp! Luke shot arrows into it. Several fell, but not enough. Then the pikes were upon them. Caspian deftly dodged a pike thrust and stabbed his adversary through the heart. Lydia was beside him, with her long bladed knife dealing out death as it slashed it's way through the wall of pikes. Caspian knew they needed the firepowder, but the only person close to him was Lydia. He couldn't send her unprotected! Yet he had no choice.
"Lydia!" he yelled, "Do you know were Master Tage lives?" Caspian cut a murderous pike in half.
"Yes," Lydia called back as she whipped her knife horizontally, wounding a pike man's throat. She spun and ended a swordsman, who had snuck up behind her.
"Dog," Caspian thought. Sneaking up on the back of a woman! Suddenly Lydia planter her foot solidly next to him and slashed out at the pike man's unprotected middles. "What do you need?" she yelled.
"Firepowder!" Caspian shouted leaping forward and running a black fighter through. He spun and hit another black fighters breastplate. Sparks leapt off it and the black fighter plummeted over the side of the bridge.
