chapter 6

Hecta

I had been watching the Pevensies since the night I let Edmund go. I shouldn't have done that. I had let my emotions get the better of me and I fucked up. Now I hide in the trees and watch them face many obstacles whilst trying to get to Aslan. They had to run away from the wolves, that Jadis has sent, which led them to meet one of Aslans followers, then they was followed by what they thought for Jadis but it turned out be Father Christmas and now they had to face the obstacles of the river not being frozen anymore.

I managed to go around the river before it completely collapsed so I was currently hiding on the other side watching Susan and Peter argue about crossing the river. It felt weird because even though they have no idea who I am, I was starting to get to know these 3 siblings. I was snapped out of my day dream when I saw Jadis' pack of wolves cross the river and one of them grab a hold of Mr Beaver making Peter pull out his sword that he had been given by Father Christmas. This was a bad idea. I tried to think of plan when I thought if I can melt the river a bit more than the wolves will get pushed to the other side. Peter saw the ice melt and stabbed his floor in the ice as I melted it more giving them a push to ride on their block of ice to cross the river.

I watched the wolves get dragged under wanted to the other side of the river when I saw Lucy fly out from here coat as she started to panic about drowning. I went over and pulled her out patting her back gently as she started to register I was a stranger.

"Are you okay?" I asked making sure that she was hurt.

""Yes I'm fine. Thank you for pulling me out." Lucy said as she looked at me curiously. "Who are you? If you dont mind me asking."

"That isn't important right now as it looks like your going to give your siblings a heart attack." I said pointing towards where Susan and Peter was shouting for her.

"Oh thank you so much." She said as she started to run towards her siblings making me smile as I felt a breeze on my back.

""You can't follow them yet Hecta." A dryad said making me jump and nearly pull out my knife. "Your sister is coming with the Son of Adam." The dryad said then disappearing as I waited in the same spot for Edmund and Jadis' to arrive.

I watched from my hiding spot as I saw Jadis become this monster everyone had warned me about. She found the fox that had lied to the wolves before and killed him using the wand I had given her a present due to the fox calling Edmund your majesty. She slapped Edmund very harshly and then declared a war on Aslan as she began setting up camp near the river.

I waited patiently for the right time to strike and was caught of guard when I saw one of the wolves she had sent towards Aslan come straight back. I came out from my hiding spot with my hood still up and slaughtered the majority of the army when I heard hooves run towards me.

"Do you know where Edmund Pevensie is." The centaur asked as others trembled away in fear as I pointed towards the tree where Edmund was with a little bit of fire dropping from my fingertip. "Your coming with us." He said helping as I was thrown up onto another centaurs back whilst the other that had spoken went to get Edmund.

"Are you with the White Witch?" The young centaur asked but I decided to ignore it due to how outrageous that question was as they took me to Aslans Camp.

*

We had arrived at Aslans camp but these two idiotic fauns wouldn't let me speak to Aslan himself as they kept bombarding me with questions that made me want to just kill them right this second.

"Why wont you take your hood off?" One asked.

"Take me to Aslan." I said for the tenth time making them groan and continue arguing with eachother. "Look, we don't have time for this so take me to Aslan before I slit your throat!" I shouted losing me temper making them finally listen to me as they started walking me towards Aslan. I kept my head down so my face would still be covered but even then I could still feel the stares.

"Aslan!" One faun shouted as he roughly dropped me to the floor. "She said she would only speak to you and then threatened to kill us."

"Show yourself." Aslan ordered as I removed my head I heard screams and shouts surrounding me as they realised exactly who I was. The two fauns immediately put on handcuffs to prevent me from killing them as they now know I could. "Hecta, how can this be."

"Long story actually." I said as I looked around at the angry faces as I began to stand. "I was ordered from Medea to kill the Dryads that made a prophecy about our family but I couldn't go through with it. So then both Medea and Noel tried to kill and in an act of self defence I killed them both and casted a spell so it would look like I was dead next to them only I had been stabbed. I thought I was going to die but I woke up the other day and I had been in a coma all that time. I know most of you Narnians will hate me for my families and my past but I can assure you I would not be here if I didn't want to fix what I have caused." I now looked at Aslan hoping he could see how desperate I was. "Please, Aslan. You need me and you know it."

"Nice sob story princess!" I heard shout from behind me as an outrage of laughter happened. I looked towards all 4 Pevensies and saw they believed me just through their eyes. Especially Edmund who looked at me with an apology inside his eye as he looked towards Aslan the same way.

"Silence!" Aslan roared. " Hecta, you shall share a tent with Lucy and Susan. I will have the dryads pick up some new clothes for you and as there everyone else no one shall talk badly towards Hecta as she will be the key to destroying the White Witch." I smiled as I was released from my handcuffs but I was quickly pulled by Lucy he dragged me to meet her siblings.

"It's nice to have you on our side." Peter said shaking me hand as she smiled at me.

"I supposed I really should have listened to you." Edmund said as he made his way towards me with a shy smile plastered on his face.

"Maybe, but I dont blame you. I wouldn't believe a 13 year old either." I said as he looked at me confused.

"But you believed me when I said where I was going and I'm only 13 too."

"I guess your my exception." I said with a smile as Lucy dragged me even further to her and Susan's tent as she began to smother me in compliments. It was obvious the Pevensies saw me as hero in their eyes but to the Narnians I was a villain. And I agree with the Narnians.
