Veronica ran through the snow hoping to reach her destination in time. The sun began to set over all of Narnia. She began to worry. It had been two hours since she met Mr.Beaver. "Oh, I hope… he found them all right…" she said panting; she finally stopped once she saw the beavers damn.
-"Okay… Mr. Beaver said it was to the north of their damn…Okay so, north would be there wouldn't it?" she asked herself. She pondered whether it was in one direction or the other, but thankfully She was able to see Mrs. Beaver out in the garden of their home. With out even thinking She ran to her hoping she would know…
-"Mrs. Beaver!" she yelled, but soon realized her mistake for Mrs. Beaver ran inside startled.
Veronica ran to the door but it was locked. "No, no, no! Mrs. Beaver, I met your husband a few hours ago to find the sons of Adam and daughters of Eve." The door cringed open and there stood Mrs. Beaver, sniffing Veronicas Scent.
-"Oh deary, how can I help you?" she asked puzzled, but Veronica wasted no time.
-"I'm looking for the home of 'Badger' do you know where it is at?" she said in a rush, for she was against time. Mrs. Beaver looked confused.
-"Badger? Has he done something wrong?" Veronica started to get frustrated but tried to keep her temper.
-"No! I need to find him, he's helping the faun Tumnus, and I need to get there before the witch does!"
-"Oh right then! See those two posts? Just go strait through them and keep strait till you see a village."
Veronica nodded in understanding. She then took out a piece of paper and pen and scribbled on the parchment.
-"Please give this to Peter, he will be the tall one with blonde hair…" she said this as she past the beaver the note. She then ran of in the direction she was given "Thanks!" she yelled behind her.
She ran for some time watching the darkness creep up around her until she saw a flash come from strait ahead. She sneaked behind one of the buildings to see in her horror animals in stone, and there in the middle was the witch herself… Jadis…
-" Where is he badger?" she said threateningly pointing her wand at the badger.
-"We don't know," replied the badger coolly, Jadis merely chuckled.
-" You fool…do you honestly think anyone will come and save you all?" The remaining alive animals shouted:
-"Yes!"
-"They'll come!"
-"She'll kill you!"
Jadis looked around and then at Maugrim, who was the captain of secret police and a vicious wolf…
-"Kill the badger…let him suffer his consequences." Maugrim merely laughed
-"Whatever my queen desires." And started to approach the badger. The badger got on all fours ready for the attack; Maurgrim however had the hairs on his neck standing up growling at the poor creature.
-" We still wont tell you Witch! At least we die with the truth!"
Veronica looked in shock as the wolf approached the badger. Jadis ordered the rest of the police to do the same to the other animals. Just then, a wolf lunged at one of the chipmunks, but failed because he was thrown back. The others stopped and stared at the chipmunk and then at Jadis who merely smiled.
-"Sister, about time you show…I was beginning to think that you forgotten about the faun…"
Veronica walked out from behind the house. For it was she who blasted the wolf back from the chipmunk.
Veronica only replied in a soft tone that lifted the spirits of the other animals.
-"Jadis, one does not forget those closest to them…the ones, who they love." Veronica walked forward up to the badger. The wolves however, retreated behind their master and Maugrim in fear of their new enemy.
-" Dear sister, are you still going on about Love." Jadis said in a mocking tone. Veronica only nodded. She felt her heart beat fast for she now revealed herself to her Sister.
-" Jadis, as Empress of Narnia, you are to leave and never come back!" Veronica said in an ordering tone.
Jadis however, looked taken back but recovered. She pointed her wand at Veronica this time, but Veronica never moved a muscled.
-"Jadis, you can't kill me…yet." Veronica said calmly. Jadis knew she was right, and lowered her wand, but only smiled.
-"I may not be able to kill you sister, but I can to the badger."
-"No!"
Before Veronica could react there went a flash and the badger went to stone. As if things couldn't get worse Maugrim was able to sniff out Mr. Tumnus.
-"Your Majesty, we found him." And out from a house came Mr. Tumnus and a pack of wolves surrounding him.
-"Ah, yes take him to the castle…" Veronica however was too quick. In a swift movement of her hand, the snow on top of the house crashed onto the wolves, causing them to yelp and re-huddle. By this time Veronica and Tumnus were heading into the forest.
-"After them!" yelled Jadis now in a rampage. Veronica looked behind only to see a Flash going on every three seconds. Her heart sank, she had forgotten about the others… This couldn't stop her though, Aslan told her to find the faun and make sure he was safe. The faun looked back to see the pack of wolves heading their way.
-"Your majesty! They're coming!" the faun yelled. Veronica's head quickly turned to look back. He was right they were coming.
-"We need to get to a safe place and fast!" she yelled but let out a scream as she came into contact with something hard as a rock. The impact threw her into the snow spread out. Her eyes only grew wide at the sight before them. It was a Cyclops, three to be exact. The faun let out a yelp as two went for him; the other however went for Veronica. She tried to move but failed to as her dress was caught to some roots. The Cyclops made its way to her pulling out a dagger. Her eyes grew wide and she began tugging harder on her dress. "Come on, come on!" but the dress wouldn't budge. She could hear howling in the distant.
Their coming! I'm stuck and about to be killed by a Cyclops!
Her strength began to fail. She saw the dagger in his right hand," Oh, I hope this works!" she threw out her hand, pointing at the dagger. To her amazement the dagger was blasted out of the Cyclops hand. The Cyclops stopped and looked at his hand, and the proceeded on getting to her. Tumnus nearby was trying to get one of them off of him.
-"Run your Majesty! Narnia is nothing without you!" she could hear him shouting but the words meant nothing to her. The howling grew louder by the second, just when she thought all hope was lost. She pointed her hand at the root and with a wave of her hand the root was blasted apart. Without wasting a second she got on to her feet and ran towards Tumnus. She had completely forgotten about the other Cyclops, not until it grabbed her. She began to kick it when suddenly it closed its hands around her throat and lifted her into the air. She started gasping for air. Her body was screaming of pain.
I'm doomed! No one can save us!
-"Enough!" came a chilling voice, which veronica recognized as Maugrim. The Cyclops Immediately released Veronica, who fell onto the forest floor. The pack began to surround her.
-"Well, well… It seems 'Empress' you have lost your luck…" Maugrim said circling her. The wolves backed up knowing this was Maugrim's prey. Veronica got up and stared at the wolf. Her cheek was scratched, with blood dripping down and her sky blue dress was torn. She didn't look like an Empress at all if you saw her, but she stood with a majestic posture, waiting for her fate.
-"Unfortunately, my Queen doesn't want us to kill you just yet…" he said stopping and looking at the faun.
"But your friend… well… that's a different story…" he said chuckling to himself. She looked at Tumnus, and then at Maugrim. He crouched down getting ready to leap at Tumnus.
-"But that doesn't mean we can't give you a show." Many things happened at that moment. Tumnus yelped, Maugrim was blasted into a tree, and everything went black for Veronica….
