This was agreed to and two leopards went back with the dwarf to see that the conditions were properly carried out. “But supposing she turns the two leopards into stone？” whispered Lucy to Peter. I think the same idea had occurred to the leopards themselves； at any rate， as they walked off their fur was all standing up on their backs and their tails were bristling.like a cat‘s when it sees a strange dog.
“It’ll be all right，” whispered Peter in reply. “He wouldn‘t send them if it weren’t.”
A few minutes later the Witch herself walked out on to the top of the hill and came straight across and stood before Aslan. The three children who had not seen her before felt shudders running down their backs at the sight of her face； and there were low growls among all the animals present. Though it was bright sunshine everyone felt suddenly cold. The only two people present who seemed to be quite at their ease were Aslan and the Witch herself. It was the oddest thing to see those two faces.the golden face and the dead.white face.so close together. Not that the Witch looked Aslan exactly in his eyes； Mrs Beaver particularly noticed this.
