The only sound in the night was the sound of the white witch's sleigh going through the snowy woods as the Queen along with Edmund and her trusty dwarf servant made their way from the witch's palace. The only reason that the son of Adam was still alive was because Jadis knew that his siblings would of course try to rescue him and when they attempted to she would kill all four of them and thus end all hopes of peace being restored to Narnia. Jadis wanted all four of them dead, if they were all dead then the prophecy would not be fulfilled which meant she would continue to be Queen of Narnia as there would be nobody to ever stop her. The only problem was that the other son of Adam and the two daughters of Eve were on their way to Aslan but Jadis already had a plan in motion to deal with that.

The sleigh continued to go along in the woods until it came to a sudden holt causing the son of Adam to fall onto the white witch who quickly shoved him to the side. "You imbecile!" The witch screeched at dwarf servant Ginarrbrik.

"I apologize your imperial majesty but there was something in the way." The dwarf said making sure he avoided eye contact with his queen.

Before Jadis could say anymore, Vardan the second in command of her secret police slinked round to the side of the sleigh. "Your viciousness I bring news from the outside, there are rumors circulating in the woods that I think you should hear."

"Unless it's to tell me that you've captured the other human children than I don't want to hear it." Jadis snapped as her impatience thinned as her servants had still not be able to locate three humans and now Vardas was wasting her time with useless information instead of helping to look for the others.

"With all respect your majesty, you want to hear this." Vargas said as he kept his nose down to the ground, his queen was quick to temper and her statue garden in her palace was filled full of those who had been at the receiving end of said temper. "They say that there is another making their way to Aslan as we speak."

"Who?" Jadis demanded as she lifted up her wand in a threatening manner and the wolf briefly met her eyes before looking down in fear. "Spit it out! I don't have all day you idiot! Now tell me who is making their way to Aslan!"

"The princess."

Jadis' hand tightened on her wand, that doe eyed princess had been causing her trouble ever since she had killed her father and Jadis had thought that problem had been solved when the silly girl had fallen into that deep sleep. In the corner of her eye Jadis could see Edmund cowering in the corner like the useless that he was. "What do you know about this son of Adam?" Jadis asked glaring at the human boy. This was all his fault, if he had done what she had asked and brought his siblings with him then they would all be dead now and she wouldn't have to be dealing with a situation like this.

"T-They said something else… about a princess waking up, her name was princess Is–" Edmund stammered, flinching as if he had been hit by the ice cold stare that the witch was giving him. He had heard from the beavers all about the white witch and the princess but he didn't believe it, Edmund thought that they were making it up and chose to ignore everything they said for some Turkish delight and the chance to be a prince.

"–Issa." Jadis snapped fed up with the human's annoying whimpering and stammering. Of course Jadis knew her name, she had her entire family killed, taken her kingdom and placed an irreversible curse on the princess. Jadis thought her problems with that blue eyed and blonde eyed child ended when she had fallen into that prolonged sleep but the news that Issa was awake just angered her further. "So the little princess had finally woken from her slumber after all this time! Why is she awake?"

"I-I don't k-know…" Edmund mumbled quietly under his breath.

"LIAR!" Jadis screamed as she pointed her wand directly in front of the boy.

Edmund flinched and even in his bound state he tried to scramble away as best as he could. "T-they said it was something to do with the prophecy."

Of course. Jadis knew about the prophecy and despite the fact that she had made it a crime punishable by death if anyone spoke of the former royal family she too had heard the rumors about the princess waking up if the sons of Adam and daughters of Eve came to narnia. By keeping Narnia in a constant frozen state all remaining humans had perished and the chances of Jadis losing her throne were slimmed down but she still wasn't going to risk any humans risking everything that she had worked for. "Of course… I should have known, like mother like daughter when it comes to the prophecy."

"Should we search for the princess?" Vardas questioned.

"No, keep searching for the other humans." Jadis had already dealt with the princess' destiny when she placed that curse on her and having her men looking for her would not do anything to prevent the prophecy. She needed the other three siblings and they were wasting time talking about a silly princess.

"Are you sure your majesty?"

If there was one thing Jadis hated more than humans then it was people questioning her choices. If she had not needed the wolf to help find the other humans than she would have killed him right there on the spot for questioning her. "Do not question me, now go!" Jadis screeched and Vargas, Edmund and Ginarrbrik all visibly winced as the witch's cry could be heard echoing throughout the woods.

Vardas bowed his head before running off, leaving the white witch to ponder in her thoughts. It was bad enough that Aslan was on the move but now the annoying princess was too. Jadis had allowed that child to live against her better judgment and it had backfired and she was not going to make the same mistake again. All four of the humans would die.
