Hey before you begin, just a note to say I've quickly added the mulefa character Roger into this chapter and the other ones I published last week. I regrettably forgot about him since I haven't updated these recent chapters since last year but they are here now. Enjoy the chapter. 

Third Point of View: 

Will was lying in his bed, shaking, dreaming. (Y/N) did all he could to dap his head with water whilst (M/C) allowed his cat Leo to purr and stroke his head. Even Roger the strange quadruped mammal tried stroking him with his trunk. But his eyes remained shut tight. 

"His hands got worse," (M/C) checked his hand. "I've done everything I can,"

"You did your best," Lyra said. "(Y/N). I'll get some more water and (M/C), you try and find some more supplies,". The two rushed downstairs and Lyra filled a pitcher with water from a nearby fountain, (M/C) searched the streets for a medical store. He couldn't find any medicines but he managed to find extra bandages. He was just making his way back to the cafe when he saw Angelica and Paulo down the street and they were glaring over at him. He quickened his pace and returned to Lyra but shadows loomed towards them and they turned to see loads of children. 

Quickly they hurried back inside and closed the doors, locking it tight. Lyra breathed heavily as she peeked through the gap between them but Angelica's fierce face appeared into view. "I see you two!" She banged. (M/C) pulled Lyra back and they paraded up the stairs in a hurry. 

Will was just waking up with (Y/N) helping him sit when they burst into the room. "Guys! Angelica's downstairs and she's going to kill us!" Lyra freaked out. 

"What?" (Y/N)'s heart jumped banging and shouting. And then a loud blaring noise rattled their eardrums. Roger trumpeted through his trunk. 

"Grab your things!" (M/C) cried. Quickly they grabbed their rucksacks and everything they needed. He regrettably stuffed Leo in his rucksack. "Quick! Onto the roof! Will help me lift this box!". The girls rushed ahead of the boys, their daemons taking bird forms and flying through. Roger managed to catch up to them. They weren't going to leave him behind either. The boys managed to heave up a heavy box and the moment they were out, Lyra shut the door and she and (Y/N) pushed the box against the wooden door. "That'll hold them!". Right after he said that they heard banging on the door and it started quaking. "Not for long though!" 

"Will, can you cut us out of here?" (Y/N) asked.

Will held the knife up. And tried. But nothing happened. "Hurry!" Lyra cried. 

"It's not working!" he screamed. 

Suddenly they saw some children climb up onto the roof. "Run!" (M/C)! cried. Quickly he led them across the jungle of roofs with jumps and more climbing but the children kept chasing them everywhere. "We'll never be able to outrun them!"

"We have to split up!" Lyra said. "(Y/N)! You come with me! Will you go with (M/C)!" 

Will didn't like it. "Where are we gonna find each other?!" 

"The beach!" (M/C) suggested. "Be careful everyone!". The boys went right and leapt up onto a balcony and into a hotel. The girls climbed up a staircase and scaled along the roofs with Roger behind them. But Angelica and Paulo split up, leading two groups after the two separate parties. 

..............................................................................................................................

Will and (M/C) rushed through the hallways, the latter knocking down several boxes and trolleys whilst Will sped ahead. But Paulo was able to jump up and catch up. "Come back here you cowards!" 

Will saw an open room ahead. "In here!" Quickly they dashed and he twisted the key, locking it. They rushed to the balcony but a large gap stood between them and a flat rooftop. "We can't make that,"

"You led us in here. We're gonna have to," Without fear, (M/C) stood on the top of the railings and he leapt. He landed gracefully on his feet, Leo meowing loudly from his rucksack. He turned back. "Come on Will! You can make it!"

Will was scared. But his heart jumped to the loud banging of the doors and on the balcony next door he saw Paulo pointing her broom at him. "Just give us the knife and we'll let you go,". But Will wasn't going to. 

"You can do it!" (M/C) cried out. "I'll catch you, I promise!"

Will growled and slowly stepped onto the railing. Paulo and more children appeared on the other balconies and started throwing some items. He nearly lost his balance. "Jump!" (M/C)'s voice provoked Will to leap and he grabbed his injured hand and pulled him safely up, the boy's agonising cries squealing into the air. "Sorry," Will collapsed on his knees. He couldn't go with his hand like this. "We have to keep going, Will. You can do this," He clasped his shoulders. "Your dad is coming and we are going to get you to him. Now come on," he pulled Will's right arm around his shoulder and they kept running over the rooftops. 

..............................................................................................................................

Lyra, (Y/N), Pan, Aster and Roger narrowly avoided the stones thrown at them by the angry girls. "Get back here you murderers!" Angelica cried. They climbed up some ladders. Angelica suddenly grabbed (Y/N)'s foot and tried pulling her down. Lyra managed to reach the top. Aster turned into an owl and tried pecking at her but the other children tried to hit him with their sticks. 

Lyra grabbed a long broomstick and pointed it down at Angelica. "I don't want to hurt you. But let her go,"

"She killed my brother,"

"I'm so sorry about your brother but this won't bring him back. It wasn't her fault!". Her words only made Angelica crosser. She pulled (Y/N) again and she screamed as her hands slipped from the ladder rung but she grabbed the next one. With no choice, Lyra reached down and hit Angelica's hand and she let go. Quickly Lyra pulled (Y/N) up and before they could be pursued, they pushed the ladder from the ledge and it crashed into some children by accident. They came to some giant thick cables lined up together, forming a bridge that stretched to the other side. "I'll go first," Lyra stood carefully and Pan became an ermine to stand on her shoulders and help her keep balance. Then Roger managed to scurry across. "Good job Roger," They reached the other side in less than a minute. "Come on (Y/N),"

(Y/N) stepped carefully onto the railings. Aster became a weasel and did exactly what Pan did. She started crossing carefully but her pacing slowly as she looked down. She swallowed her lunch before she could throw up but her face turned white. "Just look at me!" Lyra called over. "Look at me! Just keep going! You're almost there!" 

(Y/N) looked only at her offered hand and she kept on going. Only a few paces to go. "Just a bit more," her daemon encouraged. But Angelica and the girls appeared out of nowhere. "Come on!" the daemon growled.

"Don't you ever give up?!" Lyra cried across. 

"Don't you two?" Angelica grabbed a broken pipe and started banging on the cables. The vibrations caused (Y/N) to lose balance and fall. She managed to catch herself but she was dangling over a hundred feet in the air. 

"Stop!" Lyra cried. One of (Y/N)'s hands slipped. "Pan stop them!" Pan turned into a vulture and swanked at the girls forcing them away. Lyra started stepping across the cables carefully to reach (Y/N) but Angelica banged again and slipped. 

"(Y/N)!" Lyra cried. Her surrogate sister and daemon plunged to the ground far below when in the blink of the dark, a pair of silver wings emerged from (Y/N)'s back and swoop! Lyra fell back onto the building, Pan coming to her and they watched in wonder as they saw the angelic pre-teen and her daemon ascendance into the air. Roger trumpeted. Their attackers looked in horror. 

.....................................................................................................................................

Will and (M/C) were just making their way to the beach near the entrance to the city when they saw a winged person shoot into the air. "It's (Y/N)," Will breathed. "She's flying,"

"Impossible," (M/C) didn't believe it at first but her wings were so bright. 

.....................................................................................................................................

(Y/N) was screaming in mid-air. She had no control over her wings. "Aster! Do something!" Aster struggled to catch up to her in snowy owl form. The distance between them was agonising to bear. "Wings! Stop! Stop!" Her wings slowly down and the cold air spread over her skin as she looked down and saw the city below her. Aster flew to her chest and she hugged him tightly. "Aster,"

"You're flying (Y/N). You're actually flying. We have to get back down,"

"I can't control..." Before she could finish, her wings dropped and she plunged from the sky. 

.....................................................................................................................................

Lyra screamed out her name as she saw her fall but Angelica and the other girls chased her across the cables and into the jungle of rooftops. She picked up Roger knowing he couldn't outrun them himself. "Help! Someone help!". She saw the beach and the boys in the distance and chose to follow them. 

.....................................................................................................................................

(Y/N) went spinning in mid-air unable to control herself. "Stop it Wings! Stop it!"

The ground was reaching up closer and closer to her. A thousand feet. Five hundred feet. Two hundred feet. But then swipe. She was above the ground again. But it wasn't her wings. 

.....................................................................................................................................

Will and (M/C) were closing in. But they saw the girls so close behind Lyra and Pan. "Lyra!" (M/C) cried out. 

Lyra saw them too but Pan cried out: "Duck!" and she managed to avoid a large brick being thrown at them. (M/C) struggled to think of something. But then he saw a zip-line of clothes. "Will keep running ahead! Take care of Leo!" he stopped running and shoved the rucksack with his cat into Will's hands and before he could stop him, he grabbed a piece of broken pipe and zip-lined along the hanging line, sending dozens of clothes raining into the streets below. 

Lyra tripped over a step and Angelica nearly attacked her as she cradled Pan and Roger protectively but bash! (M/C) landed right on top of her. "Lyra! Come on!" he grabbed Lyra's hand but they were coming to a ledge. "Don't think! Just jump!"

Lyra wanted to scream out "No!" but he jumped and pulled her with him and...puff! They landed in a gigantic pile of hay. A soft landing. They managed to scurry out and dash to the stairways where to their luck, they managed to find Will. 

"Where's (Y/N)?!" he cried out. 

"I don't know," Lyra was panicking. "I saw her fall but now I can't see her,"

"You don't think she..."

"Don't!" she warned. "Just don't!"

"We'll find her later but right now we need to get out of here," they stumbled down the steps and onto the beach but to their horror, bigger kids appeared out of nowhere and blocked their path. They tried to turn back but Angelica was there with Paulo. 

"Thought you could escape and get away with it?" Paulo sneered. She tried to attack (M/C) but Will held the knife out. 

"We don't want to hurt you," he begged. 

"No! But we wanna hurt you!" she tried to attack but Roger scared her with his trunk-blowing. 

"When we will you guys, we'll cook him alive," 

Suddenly they heard a loud cawing from the sky. They looked up and saw.."Kaisa?" Lyra breathed. 

In the blink of an eye, Serafina Pekala, armoured and with banned hair, landed between them and the bloodthirsty sisters. "Leave. Now," she ordered. The children didn't leave. "I will not ask you all again,". Two other witches appeared. One held onto (Y/N) tightly and landed around the other three. The children retreated into Citagatze. 

Lyra slowed her breathing and in an instant threw her arms around the Queen of the Lake Enara witches. "Thank you, Serafina,"

The queen returned the hug. "We are glad to see you're safe, Lyra Silvertongue," she let go and her daemon landed beside her. The boys were a little scared. "Do not be afraid. We are friends. We mean you no harm,"

"Are you witches?" Will asked. 

"They can't be. Witches have brooms," (M/C) said, earning a chuckle from Serafina, obviously the leader. The other two witches however were not impressed by his choice of words. "Sorry,"

"We once rode brooms made of cloud pine but now we fly without them," the witch explained.

Will remembered who one of the other witches was holding. "(Y/N)!" he rushed forward to her as the witch slowly let her go and she tried to stand up again. She fell and he caught her. "Easy. Easy. It's okay,"

Lyra panting worriedly fell beside her. "Is she alright?"

"She's alright," Serafina assured, kneeling on Will's other side. "But now we must find shelter for the night. And not here,"

So (Y/N)'s wings have awoken and she can fly. What did you all think? I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please send reviews and let me know what you all think.
