Dancing In The Rain - A Edmund Pevensie Fanfiction

Chapter 14: Saved...Or Not?

Ella's POV

I couldn't sleep at all that night.

There was just too much pain. Physically and mentally.

As I watched the rays of sunlight slowly fill up the small cell. My stomach grumbled once again. I hadn't eaten or drank anything for nearly two days and I was so hungry. Suddenly, the door to the cell opened with a slam and in walked the last person I wanted to see at the moment, or ever.

Goudvis.

"So how was your night, oh Savior of Narnia? I trust you had a good rest!" He exclaimed in an over-fake voice.

"What do you want?" I spat back. I was really getting sick and tired of this guy.

"Now, now, that's no way to talk to someone who has the power to give you what you got yesterday. I'm sure you wouldn't want your other arm to receive another one of my little gifts." He smiled.

Not wanting to go through yesterday's pain again, I slowly lowered my head.

When and how did I get so weak?

"Good girl. Now, Master Jadin will be arriving at the castle tomorrow night. So until then, I can still have some more of my fun"

Fun? How much more could he do to me that he hasn't done already?

He slowly approached me and I eyed him cautiously. There was something very dark in his eyes. More than just cruelty or hatred or mischief. More like...lust.

Oh no.

"You really are such a pretty piece of filth!" He whispered in a low voice. By now, his face was just inches from mine, his body pushing mine against the wall that was behind me.

Oh no. Please. Anything but this.

Suddenly, he grabbed my waist and started to kiss my neck. I screamed out, but I could tell that he didn't care. I tried to squirm out of his strong grip but the ropes were just too tight for me to move. He kept ferociously kissing my neck and I continued screaming out in protest. I was getting hysterical by now.

Edmund's POV

I had finally reached the White Witch's castle. It looked exactly like how I remember it. I noticed goblins at the entrance of the castle so I left Philip in the forest and crept up to the castle, trying not to be seen.

I finally made it in. The inside of the cold castle was empty and quiet. I tried to remember where the dungeons were. That was the most likely place where they would be keeping Ella. As I carefully crept through the hallway. I heard something.

A blood-curdling scream.

I stopped in my tracks and listened for the sound again. I heard the scream again, this type louder and more frantic.

Ella!

I bolted down the long hallway in the direction of the scream. It sounded so frightened.

What was happening to you, Ella?

I continued running towards the screams, as they were getting louder and louder the closer I came to them. Finally, I stopped outside a door and from inside I could hear was the screams were coming from. Without a moments rest, I kicked the door open.

There was a man with his back turned to me. He was leaning towards the wall, moving something or someone. The minute the door fell to the floor, he turned his head around. That was when I saw her.

Ella.

She as hanging on a hook, backed up against the wall. Her dress was torn at the sleeves. It was ripped at the end, the dress coming only above her knees. She was sobbing hysterically, her face and arm covered in blood. I noticed the large man still had his hands on her waist.

"Get your filthy hands off her!" I yelled. I was literally burning with rage. How dare he touch Ella that way and cause her so much pain?

I could faintly here Ella gasp my name, but I was not paying attention to that. I was just glaring at the man in front of me, thinking of different ways to ripping his head apart.

"Or what, Little King? What are you going to do? Attack me? Come on then. Attack me!" He laughed, letting go of Ella and turning his whole body to me.

That had done it. I reached for my sword but froze when I felt nothing on my hip. It was right then that I realized something.

I had left my sword in the saddle with Philip.

Oh no.

Yeah....Ella's time here at this castle has been terrible, I know. I wasn't going to take anything too far with Goudvis and her! But now that Edmund doesn't have his sword to stop Goudvis, what shall happen? Any ideas??? Comment and let me know!
