Chapter 23: Too Close

Quick Disclaimer: I do not own anything Disney, characters, attractions or otherwise. I only own my 10 OC's and the unfolding plot of this story, so no flames please!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

April's P.O.V.

I screamed as we fell through the glass. Gasping, I yanked pieces of glass out of my cheek, tasting the blood as it flowed out. For a split second, I saw Susan, sprawled on the ground in a dead faint from falling from through the glass. I drew my sword and did everything in my power to fight off the wolves, blood and bits of fur flying everywhere. After a few minutes, I had injured and or killed a great number of them, but they still kept advancing.

By now, my energy was spent; sweat mating the hair on my head into a great tangle. Also from many cuts received by the wolves, I was losing blood, not enough to kill me, but enough to tire me. I put myself over Susan's limp form.

"Why bother protecting her? You won't live to see her awake!" snarled one of the still healthy wolves. In answer, I spit blood from one of the cuts in my mouth at it, causing it to growl low and dangerously. I knew I couldn't fight and win, but I would do anything to protect Susan, even if I died trying.

I closed my eyes; waiting for the end, and screamed again as I felt a blinding pain on my face as the wolf's claws made contact. I thought he was going for my throat, to end it all, but when I heard painful howls from the wolves. I fearfully opened my eyes, to be filled with nothing but relief when I did. There stood Ivy, holding her blue sword, with another golden one strapped to her side, the remaining wolves either sprawled on the ground or running away Next to her stood Prince Caspian, who sprinted over to Susan side. And finally, I saw the ruler of Narnia. Aslan.

"My god. April, are you all right?" cried Ivy, racing over to me and helping me sit up.

"Ohh, that cut looks like it hurts," she winced, pulling a piece of fabric from her sleeve and wiping some of the blood away. I groaned, and then felt my eyes drawn to the great lion.

"Aslan, you saved us," I said, getting down on my knees. I then felt his heavy paw on my shoulder, warm and soft.

"I should be thanking you, dear one. As well as you, Ivy." The two of us could only stare. "You girls have shown great courage in the face of danger, thinking not of yourselves, but the safety of others. I will help you" He then growled low in his throat, and I felt warmth move over all my cuts. I touched my cheek; where the scratches were, and felt nothing but the barest hint that they had ever been there.

"Thank you Aslan," we breathed, both of us hugging his mane.

"You're welcome children, but do not stop in your quest. There are many more hardships you must face. Your friend's lives are in great danger. My sources have let me know that the Princess Snow White lays trapped in her own attraction, along with her prince. Their demise is close, and you must gather your friends quickly if you have any hope of saving them."

Ivy helped pull me to my feet, our four swords clinking together as we did.

"Lets go! We have to give Carly and Emily their swords, and save Snow white before it too late!" said Ivy, drawing her sword in anticipation.

"Caspian, get Susan back to the Castle," I ordered, helping him lift Susan's limp body onto his horse.

"Aslan, will you be coming with us?" asked Ivy, coming closer to the lion, hoping it would give her strength.

"No my child. You must do this alone. You can do it." Even as I had already fought a pack of wolves, I felt afraid.

"But Aslan, I don't think I'm brave enough" I said, hanging my head in shame, looking up when I heard him give a low chuckle.

"My dear, if you were any braver, you'd be a lioness. Now, go. Find your friends. Bring peace back to this land." We nodded and fled the room, the two of us hand in hand. Never had I felt braver.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Third Person P.O.V.

"The girls have figured out where Snow White is! What ever shall we do?" fretted Hook, nearly pulling out his hair in his nervous state.

"Oh calm down you codfish, everything will be fine," said Ursula, her tentacles curling and uncurling as she watched through the dark crystal as it pulled up images of the girls.

"How can you be so calm? Our plans will be ruined. As they save each would be victim, they grow even more powerful!" yelled Jafar, slamming his staff on the ground in anger.

"Wow, Jaffy babe, don't blow a blood vessel," smirked Hades, hands behind his heads in a relaxed position.

"Well, if you're so calm and collected, HOW DO YOU PROPOSE WE BEAT THESE BRATS!" Jafar retorted, Hades hair going from his natural blue into a crackling yellow.

"Not to sound petty babe, BUT I'm THE VILLAIN WHO DOES THE VOICE RAISING HERE!" he yelled, the two men seconds from going at each other's throats.

"Enough," came a cold voice that radiated chills across the room.

"What is it you wish, my lady?" asked Jafar, who seemed to be transfixed by the villain.

"We are above this petty squabbling. You Jafar will do nothing but wait, till the opportune moment to strike. Grimhilde will deal with the ones who try to save Snow White, while Hades makes sure that the two captive girls will not escape. The villains glared, but agreed. "Now get ready. I can sense their presence," said the voice, before becoming silent, with the cold lingering however.

Another cliffhanger. The next chapter, as you probably know will happen in Snow White's Scary Adventures, with the oldest Disney villain as an obstacle. Now, if you're an avid Disney reader such as myself, you might have noticed a couple of quotes, which do not belong to me, but Disney!

1. Keeping with the Narnia theme, when Aslan tells April she's as brave as a lioness, that's from the second Narnia movie, where he says it to Lucy.

2. Another is form a Disney crossover, a Hercules episode titled Arabian nights, where Hades and Jafar briefly teamed up. When Hades yells at Jafar, that's from that episode, which you should really check out.

Also, if you can guess who the voice was, great, but shh! If you can't, all will be revealed in the upcoming chapters. But for now, I'm going to take a few days break, to get inspired for the rest of the story, unless a great a truckload of reviews from people who want more of the story inspires me faster. If so, I will start writing down ideas, but if not, I will see you back here in a few days!

Hades: Hey! I do not raise my voice like that! Come here!

Me: (Screaming and slams door!)

Hades: So it's just me and you readers of this fan-fiction. Well tell that writer of yours to let us win, or bad things will happen! (Leaves room)

Me (Poking head around door) Is he gone? Phew, is it hot in here or it that just me? (winks)
