A/N: Wow, this is a quick update for me. Am I the only one who's proud of me?

Chapter Thirteen: Making a Dash for It
Jess POV
After talking to May Belle, Jess rushed back to the table. Leslie and Miss Edmonds sat talking when he approached.
"Um, Miss Edmonds, my mom told me I needed to be home in an hour," he told Miss Edmonds. She smiled at Jess, then at Leslie.
"Well, then, we'd better get going, shan't we?"
Miss Edmonds got them home in record timing. They had fifteen minutes to spare, and were out of her Volkswagen as soon as it stopped at their street.
Jess and Leslie both called a hasty, "Thank you!" over their shoulders as they dashed back to Terabithia. Jess's locket started to get hot as they crossed the bridge.
He popped it open. "Yes?"
"Are you home yet?" his sister demanded.
"Yes, we're in Terabithia," Jess said, following Leslie to the treehouse.
"Okay. Go to the treehouse, and stand under the tree," May Belle instructed. Jess grabbed Leslie's hand and pulled her with him under the bows.
"Alright. Islanzadì is starting the spell. You'll be home in a few minutes, Jess. And Leslie, too."
A/N: Really short, I know. But I haven't worked out exactly how the spell will work across time yet, I'm thinking the lockets will act as a liaison between times. Suggestions?
As always, review!
