Chapter 14

The next morning, when the others woke up, they were in for a scare.

Susan was the first one up. When she saw that Lucy and Melendie were gone, she ran over to Peter and shook him awake.

"Peter! Peter! Wake up! Wake up NOW!"

Slowly, he sat up. Sleepily he asked, "Su, what's..." he then noticed that she was pale and had a worried look on her face, "...wrong? Susan, what is it? You're as white as a ghost."

"Lucy and Melendie. They're gone."

Peter was now wide awake.

"Gone? What do you mean they're gone?"

I mean gone! As in they're not here!"

"Well, where could they be? They never would have just up and left without telling anyone."

"I have an idea, but we should wake Ed first."

They did. When they explained what had to him, he became wide awake as well.

"Where are they?" he asked.

"Susan said she has an idea," Peter told him.

They both looked at her.

"I certainly hope I'm wrong. But, I think they were...kidnapped." The boys stared at her, with their mouths open.

"Are you sure about this, Su?" Peter asked.

"I think so. Follow me."

She brought them to the area where Lucy and Melendie had been sleeping.

"Look," she pointed to a footprint, "it's Macebreth. There are two sets, and they come right up to where the girls were."

To make sure, Peter got down and examined them closer. He, too, turned pale. He slowly stood up.

Very slowly, he said, "Unfortunately, Susan's right. Two Macebreth soldiers came and... took them."

The three were silent.

After a minute, Peter said, We have to go after them," he looked at his brother and sister. "We have to get them back."

Of course, Susan and Edmund both agreed.

The three of them woke everyone else up and told them what had happened. Everyone also agreed that they needed to go after them right away.

Within a half-hour, everyone was armed and ready.

Everyone, but Aslan. He was nowhere to be found. But they weren't surprised. They had all learned long ago that He came and went all the time.

As soon as everyone was ready, they set off for the Macebreth camp.

Review pretty pretty please!
