Cordelia was sitting in her bedroom, just about to get ready for bed when screaming and shouting suddenly erupted. She stood there, in shock, not really sure what to do, whether or not she should go investigate. Before she had a chance to decide, the door to her room was flung open and her brother rushed in. "Delia, we have to go." He said, grabbing her by the hand and quickly leading her out of her room and down the hall. "Casp, what's going on?" She asked worriedly, glancing around as she stumbled along behind her brother, trying to figure out what was happening. "Our uncles have stormed the castle," He explained, pressing himself against the wall and pulling her next to him as he glanced around a corner, trying to make sure the coast is clear. "Wh-what are you talking about? Where's dad?" She asked, her heart racing in her chest. "Dad will be fine, Semian and the others have already fled, dad sent me to get you." He said, as they continued down the hallway, finding an exit.

"Now, you have to go. Don't stop until you reach our old hide out, got it? No matter what, just keep going." Caspian said, giving her a quick and gentle push. "What? Your not coming with me?" Cordelia asked, looking back at her brother. "I have other things I need to take care of here, make sure others get out. But you need to go Delia. Promise me, you'll keep going, no matter what." He said, looking her in the eyes. She hesitated, about to open her mouth to protest but Caspian cut her off. "Go Cordelia, now." He said, giving her one last push and closing the door.

Cordelia hesitated a moment longer before turning and swimming away as fast as she could. She could still hear screams and shouts coming from behind her but she did her best to ignore it, though she would occasionally look over her shoulder, hoping to see Caspian close behind her, but the water behind her was always empty. It was when she was looking behind her, that she swam directly into massive rock formation. The impact with the rock knocked her out, and she simply floated along with the current. It wasn't until the next morning, that she washed up on the shore in Hawaii. As the sun rose, it dried her skin, and her tail turned into legs, as she lay unconscious on the beach.
