I felt tears running freely down my cheeks.
"I don't care what the consequences are. I am going to save you. I love you and I will never let you slip trough my fingers again, I will never let you go again. Rachel, I love you." Peter said as a few tears ran down his face.
"I love you too." Was all I could say.
"I am going to save you, I promise."
"Y-you already did."
"Already did what?"
"You already saved me . . ."
"How?"
"By loving me."
"Oh . . . well I am also going to save you from Seifer."
"I thought you also said that you would never save me. AT least that's what you said two years ago."
Peter chuckled and then gave me a serious smile.
"Rachel . . . I have always loved you since I saw you behind us, getting onto the train, but now I love you more than life itself. You are the only thing that I can't live without. If you go, then so will I. I love you with all my heart."
"I love you too. But I had better leave this mind, I think she's beginning to get sick."
"Rae, I love you and I will find you I promise."
"You cross your heart?"
"And hope to die . . . but not with the needle in my eye . . ." He laughed weakly.
"Goodbye . . . I love you."
"I love you too."
I left Dove's mind and quickly came back to mine. I looked around and made sure that Seifer had not come back yet. I still wonder what he is up to, it's making me nervous. I would rather him be busy with me than out where I can't see him. I wonder what plans Peter has. I know he has one. He always does for any occasion, no matter what it is for or about. He's so smart . . . that's one thing I love about him. I suddenly felt a small tug at my clothes. I turned and saw it was Reepicheep.
"Dove came back and told me to tell you something from Peter."
"What! What is it?"
"Shh! He said that he plans to challenge Seifer while Lucy and Meagan try to sneak in here to set you free. Susan and Ed are going to be cheering for him."
"Thank you, Reepicheep."
"He also says that he is going to follow Dove to where she met me."
"So is Peter here?"
"No, not yet. Dove just dropped by to make sure she remembered how to get here. But he's disguising himself. He's not going to be dressed as a Narnian but a Witch follower." He squeaked as he said 'White Witch'
"Alright. Thank you. Will you keep a look out on the entrance of the cave? As soon as he arrives report to me immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty . . . I mean Rachel."
He went through his hole. I guess he was going the back way. Peter is coming to challenge Seifer? And Seifer wants something that I cannot give? My powers are not a gift, they were learned. If Seifer wants them, he has to learn them. You can't just give someone your knowledge of something, they have to learn it. So basically, Peter is leading everyone into a trap, unless he happens to slay Seifer . . . and it's been two years since we have actually fought with swords. I'm sure that Peter is not as keen with them as he once was. This is all my fault. Because I am captured, Peter is going to risk his life along with everyone else's. Peter's plans almost always work, but this one will not. I've already seen the vision of everyone being capture, even though I'm not sure why Susan wasn't there. That makes me really nervous. Seifer suddenly came through the entrance of the cave and walked past me.
"Where have you been?" I asked curiously.
"Shut your trap! Where I have been is not your concern. The only thing you should be concerned about is which of your loved ones would you have die first . . ."
"What do you mean?" I asked, having a feeling of something I haven't felt in a long time.
"You have not gave me your powers yet, and time is running out. I'm about to go a capture your loved ones, and then you will get to pick which dies first."
"No! I will Refuse!"
"Either you choose or I will . . . ."
I felt my heart sink as Seifer lay on his cloth. He ignored me. All hope is lost. What was this feeling I was experiencing? . . . . Suddenly the word hit me . . . .
"Fear." I said softly.
For once in my Narnian years . . . fear has entered my blood.
