Chapter 2
A New World
With a small click the door opened.
"It's beautiful..." Isabel breathed.
"No of course not. Its spooky and we should leave." said Jennifer, her voice shaky.
All the while, Alexis hadn't been paying attention... she just stood there, admiring the room. Although it wasn't furnished as royally as the other parts of the mansion, it had a beautiful oak wardrobe that caught her eye.
It was a big wardrobe, one with a looking glass on one side. The design of a forest carved on the other side of the door. She just stared at it.
Whats wrong with you Alex?" Isabel asked, she had noticed the distant look in her hazel eyes.
"nothing just..." said Alexis, not bothering to complete the sentence she walked into the room. "come on! Lets go see whats inside..." saying this, she opened the wardrobe door.
Jennifer and Isabel exchanged glances, Alexis had never before behaved this way. Her face had a look of enthusiasm, excitement, and at the same time it was distant.
"Alex? Alex stop, lets go find our group. We must be breaking a hundred rules." said Jennifer, she clearly was uneasy about this room.
" Since when did the great Jennifer start caring about rules? Are you scared of going inside a cupboard?" challenged Isabel.
"What do you suggest I do? Lock myself in it just to prove we aren't scared?" Jennifer was incredulous.
Alexis heard their argument but didn't care, she was more interested in the wardrobe before her, beautiful as it was, it had an aura around it. As if it was... magical. She opened the door of the wardrobe, curious to know what was creating this feeling in her.
"...don't challenge me Isabel. Don't try to act all that smart, admit it you're just not." came Jennifer's angry voice. She and Isabel were still arguing. Alexis felt bad, but only vaguely. Jennifer shouldn't be talking to Isabel like this. But she ignored the feeling, mesmerized due to the sight before her.
"Come on Pete! Im not a kid. And if it has escaped your notice, I am a king." whined Edmund. He wanted to go out hunting, but the over protective High King wouldn't let him.
"No, you may get attacked. We don't want to lose the Just King do we?" said Peter firmly.
"Please brother, you know-"
"No Edmund! Are you deaf? I said-" Peter cut him off, who in turn was cut off by Susan.
"Stop it both of you. Ed, stop whining. And Peter, Ed needs some fresh air." said Susan. She had been sitting in the room trying to read a book, but her irritating brothers wouldn't let her.
"but Su-" Peter started, but broke off under the death glare his sister gave him. Instead just nodded.
"thanks Su, you're a brick. And you too Peter." said a happy Edmund before going out of the room, before anyone could change their minds again.
Peter just sighed. Edmund was always trouble. But then he was a king, he knew how to handle himself.
There before her far inside the wardrobe, where there was supposed to the back of it was a beautiful sight. She was facing mountains... high snow covered mountains. And on both the sides was a forest.
"Hey guys look here, see what I found in here... come in the room and see.." Alexis said.
And not waiting for their reactions, she stepped into the wardrobe. And she walked in, into the land that lay ahead of her. When she had reached the edge of the forest, she looked back.
She could see the faint light that came in through the open wardrobe door. "...not being rational... how can... harm... let me..." drifted in Isabel's faint voice. Alexis could hardly make out the words. She called out to them, but they probably didn't hear her from where they were standing.
She looked around, it was a lovely place. Lush green leaves hung from branches, and birds chirruped. She had never seen a place so pretty.
Snap.
She turned around. What was that sound? Seeing nothing she dismissed it as a rabbit or some other small forest creature.
"Isabel? Jennifer! Guys look here!" she called, the two arguing girls hadn't heard her, so she called louder, "Isabel! Jen! Loo- - AHH!"
Something or someone had shifted at the edge of her vision, and before she could react to the movement, two men had bound and gagged her.
"Think she's a spy. What you say?" said one of the men, "Lets finish her off."
"No we cant, we should take her to the kings and queens." the other said. " She may not be a spy."
"But-" the first man tried to protest.
"I am the leader here Worat. We take her to the kings and queens, and thats my final word." the other said in a tone that left no space for arguments. his stature alone intimidated Alexis. he looked like a man ho was used to being obeyed.
The first man, reluctantly nodded. "Yes you right cap'n." he agreed, grabbing her right arm. The other man, the captain as he was called, grabbed the other. And roughly they pulled the struggling girl with them.
"Where is Alex?" asked Isabel, only just noticing that she was missing.
" She slipped away into that room while we were arguing, to check out that wardrobe, she may be in it." replied Jennifer, she was least bothered.
"Then why hasn't she come out yet? Its been two whole minutes." said Isabel, however rude and proud she may be, she did care for her friend. Even Jennifer was uneasy now, had something happened to Alexis?
"Wait I'll go check on her." saying this Isabel went into the room, not seeing Alexis in it, she too stepped into the wardrobe.
Jennifer waited, tapping her foot. She was impatient, this house gave her creeps.
After a couple of moments, she grew scared and suspicious. They must be playing a prank on her. Or were they? Maybe there was something wrong with this house.
"Okay enough, Bel, Alex come out. I don't like this joke." she said her voice shaking.
"Fine I'm coming in." snapped Jennifer. Cautiously, she stepped into the room. The wardrobe stood in the middle of it, its door open. They must be hiding inside- she thought to herself. And carefully, she too stepped into the wardrobe.
And with a small sound the wardrobe door closed and locked itself.
