*Disclaimer: there is a lot of violence and torture in this chapter. If you're not comfortable with this then please skip this chapter, you're not missing any important information!

When I woke up my head was throbbing and I was sore all over my body,

What the hell happened?

When I looked around I saw that I was in a dark room, I tried to move but I couldn't, I was tied to a table

Oh marvellous, can this get any worse?

I was pulled from my thoughts when suddenly the door opened and three men entered, at first I had to adjust to the sudden bright light.

"Ah is our queenie awake?" a man said, the man was clearly amused by my current state. I recognised the voice but I couldn't put my finger on it.

"What do you want?" I spat back. "Oh you don't recognise me?" he said as he stepped into the light. From the second that I could see his face I knew exactly who my abductor was

Oh boy, I'm fucked. Why did I need to say it couldn't get any worse?!

"Sopespian, I thought you were dead." "No my dear maybe you hoped so but you'll need more than a little water summoned by an angry cat to kill me." He said laughing, his evil laugh send shivers down my spine. "What do you want Sopespian?" I said angrily, he laughed "Isn't that obvious my dear, firstly I want you to tell me where Caspian is so I can eliminate him but before I do so I want to punish him by killing you, within a few days he's getting your heart served on a silver platter, my dear." I spat at him, he grabbed my face "It's such a shame though, you're feisty. I like it!" he laughed and turned to his two men "Get the information I want, I don't care what you have to do with her as long that she's not dead." his men nodded and Sopespian walked out of the room. I hope Caspian is coming soon because I'm not going to spill any information and that's going to get me killed. The two men approached me, the tallest one punched me in the stomach causing me to want to throw up, I gritted my teeth so that they couldn't see I was in pain. The smallest one grabbed a knife and planted it in my leg "Do you want it back or are you going to let it sitting in my leg?" I smarted

Not a good idea

The other one smacked my face, I could feel the blood running over my face.

"Shut up!" He yelled, I don't know why but I just couldn't keep my mouth shut "Dude, aren't you supposed to ask questions? Just saying, don't want you to get fired." "Shut up, you bitch!" the second one yelled as he punched me in the stomach again. The tallest man answered "But first we want to have a little fun with you." he laughed and grabbed a towel. The other one held my head still as he putted the towel on my head, before I could figure out what was happening I could feel water streaming over my face. I couldn't breathe, it felt like I was drowning! After some time they would stop, let me breathe for a second and then continued, they repeated this for what felt like hours. After some time they took the towel from my face and putted me up straight "Now queenie, you ready to talk?" "Go to hell!" I spat back. They continued punching me for hours and hours, suddenly everything went black...

~Caspian's POV~

I and Emma were sitting in the study figuring out where Lord Sopespian could be hiding "What about an old mansion or something?" "Emma you're a genius! When Lord Sopespian was appointed as Lord of Narnia, he got the coin but also an old mansion as a gift. The mansion is located near Beruna and is kept hidden in a forest. Maybe we should take a look there?" "Yeah, that's possible! But we mustn't rush, we must prepare a small army. I'm sure Sopespian is heavily armed because he knows you'll come and he wants to eliminate you." "Yeah probably. I'll ask the general to prepare a small battlegroup!" I walked out of the room towards the general's office "General, I need your help." "What is it, your Majesty?" "Nobody knows about this but Maria is abducted by Lord Sopespian and I need a small battle group to get her back. This group needs to exist out of your finest men, this is a very delicate mission." "Yeah I understand, I'll get it done as soon as possible and I'll let you know when we're ready to leave. If it's about Queen Maria then I'm coming as well, she means a lot to all of us!" "Yeah she does, thank you general Clouzot!" I said as I left his office. Hours went by and we were all preparing for battle, within an hour we would leave for the mansion. I hope Maria is okay when we get there...

~Maria's POV~

When I woke up I saw that the room was empty, my body felt like it was set on fire. I hope I'm going to survive this, I'm not ready to leave this world yet. I was pulled from my thoughts when someone busted into the room, it was Sopespian "My men told me you still didn't want to talk, well I mean I knew you're feisty but I didn't expect this resistance." He laughed, I must say I was pretty pissed off by this man. What a jerk! "Go to hell Sopespian, I'm not telling you shit!" I saw he was getting frustrated now and I was right he pulled out a knife and held it against my throat "Drop the attitude princess, it's going to get you killed!" "I'd rather be dead than tell you something!" I yelled back. "Fine, I'll get it out of you myself!" He took the knife from my throat and stabbed me several times in my stomach, at this point I couldn't hide the pain anymore and yelled out in pain. "Where is Caspian?" He yelled, "Go to hell!" he then quitted stabbing me and went for my arms. He was carving something in my left arm, I couldn't stop yelling out from the pain, he stopped after some minutes of excruciating pain "Tell me where Caspian is!" "Never!" I said with all my power, not that there was much left. He then started carving something in the other arm, I didn't know how much longer I'm going to stay conscious. After he was done carving something in both of my arms, he stood in front of me, I could see the rage in his eyes. "Tell me where Caspian is, NOW!" he yelled, "Ok ok, chill! How about not far from ain't going to happen!" at this comment he snapped and started punching my face without stopping after some minutes, everything went black again.
