Chapter 9

Previously on Chapter 8

I lay in my bed and close my eyes. "Goodnight, Lucy and Susan..." I said. "Goodnight, Y/N" they said in sync. I let out a soft giggle and close my eyes. I turn to my side and let myself drift off to sleep.

-I'm A Prisoner-

Y/N P.O.V

We're currently having breakfast. I eat slowly while Edmund eats like he never ate before. I mean... can't really blame him. The White Witch is a cruel person. She must have starved him.

"Narnia will run out of toast soon..." Lucy said, while looking at Edmund. Edmund just laughs at what she said. "I'm sure we've packed enough..." Peter said. I turn to look at him in confusion.

"Packed? Are we leaving?" I said. "Not we... three of you..." he said. "No... Peter... I can't leave. I've left once. I'm not going to leave again!" I said. "She's right... the prophecy needs all five of us! We can't just leave!" Lucy said. "I can still stay here to help. I promised mom to keep you safe... all of you... and Professor Kirke won't be happy if his granddaughter is in danger" he said, trying to get me to understand his point.

I shake my head. "No! I'm not going anywhere, you can't force me to leave. I KNOW what the White Witch is capable of... we have to work together!! I can't abandon Narnia in the hands of such a cruel witch! You all know that Professor Kirke isn't really my grandfather. Narnia is my home. Aslan is my father. So I'm staying here to protect it!" I said. Edmund turns to look at me wide-eyed.

"Woah... hold on... Aslan is your father? How?" He said. I turn to look at him. The others knew, but him as he's been held captive by the White Witch. "He's my father... my mom's a human. That's why I'm half human..." I said. "But you're suppose to be a soul?" He said, looking confused.

"Right... I haven't told you the truth..." I said. They nod their heads. "Alright... dad also told me I can tell you..." I said. They stay silent as they wait for me to start telling them.

"I was 5 when it happens. The White Witch thinks in order to take over the throne... she needs to attack dad emotionally. I'm the only person he have after my mother passed away. So she took me from dad. She use magic and separates me from my main body... what you see right now is just my soul..." I said.

I place my hand on the scarf around my neck. I let out a sigh and pull it off. "This is a her mark... she can use it to against me..." I said, showing them the tattoo around my neck.

"She wants me to destroy Narnia for her, so she can be the Queen... so my father told me to run away. Mr. Tumnus guides me through the woods and I reach the wardrobe, which leads me to your world. But before I go... dad told me that I one day I will have to guide 2 sons of Adams and 2 daughters of Eve... the 4 of you..." I said. I turn to the others as they look at me speechless.

"That's why I've been there ever since... I can't be free until the White Witch is defeated... that's why I NEED your help. Edmund, Lucy, Susan, and Peter. All 4 of you need to work together in order to defeat the White Witch. You have to help me... I don't even know where she hide my main body... you're my only hope in breaking away from the evil witch's grasp..." I said.

I move to my knees and bow at them. "Please help me!" I said, pleadingly. "Y/N! No... stand up!" Peter said. Lucy grab my shoulder and pulls me to get up. She makes me sit back down.

I feel tears streaming down my cheeks. "I just want to be with my father again. But the White Witch will use me against him... I'm not safe here..." I cried out. Edmund gently wraps his arms around me, pulling me close to him.

"We will help, Y/N..." Susan said. Tears keeps falling from my eyes. "Thank you, everyone..." I said. They smile at me and pulls me into a group hug.

"We better start training then... especially Edmund. Since he never once trained before" Peter said, who nods his head in agreement. I nod my head, smiling at them.

"Wait... you said main body?" Edmund said out of no where. "Yeah..." I said, nodding my head. "Back at the White Witch's castle. There's this one room... when I check what's inside it. I saw a body floating mid-air. Now I know why the person looks familiar. It's you, Y/N!" He said. "Are you serious??" I said. He nods his head and I smile happily. "Thank you, Edmund!" I said, hugging him.

Edmund P.O.V

Her body is cold. Maybe because she's a soul. But I don't know... being so close with her, brings warmth into my chest. Why am I feeling this way?

Could it be that I'm developing a crush on Y/N?

Time-skip

I'm helping Edmund in sword fight. "Come on, Ed! Swing harder! Your arm is like jelly!" I said. He just let out a huff. "Easy for you to say..." he said, rolling his eyes.

Philip suddenly stand on his hind legs. "Wow, slow down horsey!" Edmund said. "My name is Philip..." the horse said. "Oh... sorry..." Edmund said, a little taken aback.

I let out a chuckle at his reaction. "The world here is different from yours, Edmund. What do you expect?" I said, still laughing. He just rolls his eyes at me. But I notice a small smile on his lips.

I hear someone shouting. I turn my head to see Oreius running towards us. "What's the matter?" I asked. "You are needed back in camp. The White Witch is here" he said. Edmund and I look at each other back and forth, each of us have worry in our eyes. But we just head back to the camp.

I stand in line with the others. The White Witch walk towards us. She turns looks at us and her eyes linger on Edmund and me.

Edmund holds my hand gently in his, I can feel how sweaty it is... his hand is also shaking a little. I turn to look at him to see he looks a little paler. He must have felt very nervous by the White Witch's presence here. I turn to look at the White Witch. What did that woman do to him for him to be so scared? But most importantly...

What is she doing here?
