When all were ready （it was a big sheep.dog who actually helped Aslan most in getting them sorted into their proper order） they set out through the gap in the castle wall. At first the lions and dogs went nosing about in all directions. But then suddenly one great hound picked up the scent and gave a bay. There was no time lost after that. Soon all the dogs and lions and wolves and other hunting animals were going at full speed with their noses to the ground， and all the others， streaked out for about half a mile behind them， were following as fast as they could. The noise was like an English fox.hunt only better because every now and then with the music of the hounds was mixed the roar of the other lion and sometimes the far deeper and more awful roar of Aslan himself. Faster and faster they went as the scent became easier and easier to follow. And then， just as they came to the last curve in a narrow， winding valley， Lucy heard above all these noises another noise.a different one， which gave her a queer feeling inside. It was a noise of shouts and shrieks and of the clashing of metal against metal.
