Chapter 25

The door flew open and two men walked into the house. They saw that it was deserted on the inside. They looked around trying to find the three escaped captives.

"Are you sure they're in there?" one man said.

"Aye, a passerby said they saw the women go in here" the other man replied.

"But I don't see anyone here."

"That's because you're not looking hard enough."

They started to search the place from top to bottom. They looked in the empty rooms and behind some furniture. It took awhile before they finally decide to give up.

"No use, maybe they're off dead somewhere" he said.

"Our heads are going to be off that's for sure" the second man said.

The men looked around one last time before they left. As the door closed behind them, one part of the floor popped up and Madi, Taylor and Lucy looked around before they climbed out of their hiding spot.

"That was too close" Madi said.

"Agreed" Lucy and Taylor said at the same time.

"We need to be careful next time, because when next time comes around we may not be so lucky" she said.

The girls gathered their things before they left the house. They were careful enough not to get caught as they ran through the streets.

Madi could only hope that they would get there in time.

Over on the other side of Lone Islands, Caspian, Edmund and Lord Bern were being dragged out of their cells and headed outside up on a wooden boardwalk which led in the direction of the auction.

Caspian had tried to scout out for Madi, Taylor and Lucy but didn't see them. He hoped that whenever they escaped they were hiding somewhere safe. He looked over at Edmund and Lord Bern and back at the crowd.

At any given moment, he would wish for anything to happen.

It wasn't until they stopped short that Caspian looked up and saw that a figure covered with a cloak standing in front of them.

"I suggest you move out of the way" the guard sneered at the figure.

"I'll be glad to take them off your hands" the voice said. "I'll take them all off your hands."

Caspian and Edmund smiled as they recognized who it was. The hood was thrown off and it turned out to be Dirinan and the rest of the crew. Soon enough, they started to fight off their captors and then a fight broke out. Edmund broke out of his restraints and helped Lord Bern getting out of his hold and helped the others in the fight.

After awhile, the crew outnumbered the slave holders and they overthrown the slave auction. Just as they were about to head over to the palace, they came up with a plan.

"Dirinan, take the crew and search for the girls" Caspian ordered.

"They've been taken somewhere else?" he asked.

"They've somehow escaped the slave auction and we don't know where they are" Caspian replied.

"We'll find them" Dirinian said. "Alright men, gather your weapons we need to find Queen Lucy and Ladies Madison and Taylor. They're somewhere on the island and we're going to split up."

Right after the crew left to go look for the girls, Edmund, Caspian and Lord Bern decided to make their way towards the palace so they can set things right.

"Let's go in there" Taylor said.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes now hurry."

Madi, Taylor and Lucy ran into another abandoned house and shut the door tight. They stayed in their spots as if they were afraid to move.

"Now what?" Taylor asked.

"I don't know you're the one that led us on this wild goose chase" Madi said bitterly.

Taylor and Lucy looked at each other in shock. They were wondering the same thing, what was up with her?

"This isn't a goose chase" Lucy said.

"It sure feels like it."

"Okay Madi, what the hell is your damn problem?" Taylor asked angrily.

"My problem is that we're on some adventure to try and find some White Witch spirit and destroy her. Did you ever think that we could possibly die?"

"Of course I know that" Taylor snapped. "I don't want anything else to happen to anyone here and you don't seem to care."

"I don't seem to care?" Madi asked incredulously.

"Maybe we ought to calm down…" Lucy said, trying to diffuse the situation.

"I should calm down meanwhile our lives, Lucy's and the rest of the people here are at stake and I have no idea how to defeat the White Witch! What are you crazy? You expect me to do that meanwhile I have no freaking idea what will happen. I'm no psychic that's for damn sure! I mean, I'd never expected any of this and you know what sucks? When we get back to Narnia, you get to leave and I have to stay. I won't get to see my best friend anymore until we meet up again and that sucks" Madi said, tears streaming down her face.

Taylor and Lucy stood there in shock. They never knew how Madi felt about this until now. It wasn't that difficult to know how she was feeling when she found out about her staying in Narnia for good but it wasn't until that moment, she never expressed it.

"Madi, I know it sucks big time" Taylor said. "I may not know how you feel about having to stay but it sucks that I have to leave not Edmund behind and the others, but you as well."

"I didn't mean to lash out on you and especially you Lucy" Madi said sincerely.

"No worries, I know you're upset but I can imagine how you feel" Lucy said.

Before she started to question her, there was a gush of wind that blew into the house. They looked around only saw a few windows but they weren't opened and looked like they weren't cleaned in a long time. They looked around to find where it was coming from and couldn't see anything.

"Look" Lucy gasped pointing at the middle of the floor.

They turned to see the flooring glowing before it started to stand as a figure like person. They watched as the figure shaped into a human form.

"I guess we've made it to the right place" Madi said.

"I guess we did" Taylor breathed out.

It was only a matter of seconds that the familiar wild hair and piercing cold eyes appeared to them. The White Witch smiled a sweet, sick evil smile at the three girls, seeing that it was only the three of them.

"Well, well, well if it's the little girl and her friends. How's Edmund doing by the way? I have yet to see him" she said.

Taylor narrowed her eyes as she gripped on to her dagger tight. She looked over at her friend and Lucy who had matching looks also.

"Look, none of us want you here. You're supposed to be dead why do you come back and make everyone's lives a living hell?"

"I shouldn't have died and I came back so that way I could be brought back to life and go back to Narnia to take over once again" she replied.

"It's not going to happen now and it's not going to happen later" Madi said.

"Oh and what are you three going to do? Stop me while you don't have your men helping you out?" Jadis sneered.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Taylor asked.

Madi gripped on to the sword tighter and looked back at Taylor and Lucy with a determined look on her face. If they were going to defeat her without Edmund and Caspian's help, then they would have to do it without them.

"Let's get rid of this bitch."

A/n: Now it's going down! In the next chapter that is.

Sorry for updating a tad late. I'll try my best to update next week. Caspian and Edmund's situation will happen in the next chapter, probably in the first half I haven't figured it out yet. We'll see what my brain says!

Leave a review, we're halfway near the end almost, I can't believe it! I do plan on writing an outtake one shot to this story. I can't say what it'll be about or who'll be in it just yet! I'll let you guys know when this story is over.

Thank you guys so much for your patience and support!
