"Liam..."

I sheathe the dagger and take a step forward. Trumpkin holds me back with his arm. "You can't, Lynn. It might be a trap."

"But it's him," I whisper on the verge of tears.

"No, it's not. It's not Liam. She's trying to get to you, Lynn. You have to see through her tricks!"

"It's really him," Jadis urges. "I promise you, it's him. Dear, I wouldn't lie to you about something as serious as this."

"You can't be buying this," Trumpkin voices. "Lynn, this isn't-"

Something knocks into me and takes me to the ground. Arms hold me and the touch sears my skin. A burning hand strokes my hair and I just lay there, too confused to do anything. "I missed you so much, Lynn." I try to sit up but I'm kept down with a forceful hand.

"Is it really you?"

He inches closer and our foreheads touch. "Don't be afraid of Jadis, she's only trying to help you." I close my eyes and take in the overwhelming smell of smoke.

"Is it really you?"

He takes my face in both his hands and leans down. "Yes." Just as our lips touch, he disintegrates in the air and a snow of ashes showers over me again. My eyes fly open and I automatically get to my feet. Jadis begins to laugh and I turn to her.

"One. Last. Chance." she chants.

I ball my hands into fists and feel every ounce of anger I've ever felt surge through my body. "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?" I scream.

She glides behind me and brushes her fingers against my neck. "You could have him back, you know..."

I stand still and she begins to laugh again. "Don't believe her," Trumpkin warns. "Don't listen to a single word she says!"

"SHUT UP!" I furiously shriek. "EVERYONE SHUT UP!"

All the talking stops but the sounds of the nearby battle carry over the crashing waves. I rub my temples and try to calm down. Ten. Nine. Eight.

"Just join-" Seven. Six. Five.

"You can't-" Four. Three. Two.

"I can bring him to life. Again. Forever this time." I bring my hands down and she comes up beside me. "You and Liam could be together again. You and Liam could have your fairytale ending. You and Liam could stay in our new Narnia...forever." I close my eyes and start to imagine all her proposals. "You'll never be second best ever again," she feeds into my ear.

I gulp and open my eyes. "You'll bring him back to life? For good?"

"For good," she confirms. Trumpkin begins to shout something to me but Jadis does something and he stops.

"Trumpkin?"

"He can be yours. Just worship me." She takes my hand in hers and brings me into her arms. The next second, I feel the same burning sensation I had with Liam's remains. A blazing hand rubs my back and I pull away.

"Don't be scared," Liam's voice says hollowly. "It's me."

"But-"

"I love you, Evalynn. All you have to do is say yes and we can be together again. Please," I'm taken into his embrace and my eyes sting like crazy. "Evalynn."

One. I take the dagger back out and shove it right through the figure. It writhes in my arms and lets out a piercing scream. Dust begins to fall from the body and I soon feel Jadis' cold skin under mine. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

"I know you're the most despicable thing in the whole world but to try to pretend that you could bring Liam back? Pretend to be him just to trick me to trust you? That's the most disgusting thing I've ever heard in my life!" I dig the dagger deeper into her back as she she screams an eerie scream. "Don't play with me, bitch." I take the blade out and shove her down.

"H-how did-"

I bite my lip and kick her body. "First of all," I begin. "Liam never called me 'Evalynn.' I was and always will be Lynn to him." I keep kicking and kicking as I hold back tears. "Second, it's wrong. No matter how much I miss him, no matter how much I love him, he deserves to rest in peace." I stop and take a breath. "And he said he'd wait for me," I sob. "In Aslan's country."

I'm suddenly pushed forward but I hold my arms out to ease the fall. The dagger falls out of my hands and my wrists start throbbing from the blow. "Think you're better than me now, don't you?" She pulls my hair and jams her knee in my back. "You'll never be."

A blade touches my neck and I become hysteric. "TRUMPKIN! TRUMPKIN, HELP ME! PLEASE HELP ME!" The metal sinks in deeper and tears run down my cheek quickly. "HELP ME!"

"No one's going to save you," Jadis says in her infamous sickly, sweet voice. "Now, say hello to Liam for me."

"I'M SO SORRY ASLAN! PLEASE, I NEED YOU!"

A roar rips through the sky and all the weight on me vanishes. Screams that belong to Jadis emerge somewhere far away and I turn over.

"You're safe now, dear one."

I was rereading last chapter and I realized Lynn would be crazy in The Hunger Games:p ehh, I'm really sorry this is a short chapter you guys, today's been crappy.
