"Sara Belacqua, wake up Sara." A bear's voice said. Sara instantly awoke with Pete on her face in his mouse form. She sat bolt up right and Pete fell into her lap with a soft plop.
"Sara, come quickly before the lady Coulter wakes." The bear said and Sara hurried out. She glanced behind her to see if Lyra was there but she wasn't. The room was trashed too.
"Where's Lyra? What happened last night?" Sara asked impatiently. The bear grabbed Sara by the back of the shirt and carried her away from the cell. He dropped her off in front of her bed room door. Sara looked at the bear who sniffed the air and walked off. She shrugged and opened the door and there was Lyra, sound asleep in the bed. Sara ran over to her and shook her continuously.
"I DIDN'T DO IT!" Lyra shouted as she woke up. She looked at Sara puzzled.
"What happened last night? When I woke up you were gone and the cell was trashed! Lyra, you have to tell me what happened." Sara said. Pete started playing with Pan in his wild cat form but Pan didn't want to play and pushed him off. Lyra's bottom lip quivered.
"I'm sorry Sara. They dragged me away from the cell door, I couldn't stay there. As for the trashed room, the bears went in to try and get you out but Mrs. Coulter fought tooth and nail to keep you with her. I quote "If you are going to take Lyra away at least let me keep Sara with me!" As they were dragging me away I saw her crying into your hair. It was creepy. So you stayed there with Mrs. Coulter and I was put in here. Sorry Sara I tried to stay but I couldn't fight them off." Lyra finished and sank into the bed. Sara got up and paced back and forth.
"Our week is almost up so let's make our decision. Let Mrs. Coulter die or go with her? I say go with her just because I don't want to see her die. What about you?" Sara said.
"I'll go with her if we can escape later." Lyra said and they walked out of the room.
Sara and Lyra ran straight to Iorek and told them there decision. He nodded slightly and two bears walked off toward the cells. This was it, they had to live with Mrs. Coulter. Sara and Lyra ran around the corner and sat down.
"Hey Lyra, you ever wonder if I could transfer some of my flying ability to you?" Sara asked.
"Sometimes, why?" Lyra said.
"I wanna try it."
"Now?"
"Yeah, right now. This may be the only time we get to do it. And we can use it to escape."
"Ok let's do it." Lyra said and put her hands in Sara's. They closed there eyes and Lyra pictured herself flying. When she opened her eyes she was hovering 13 feet above the ground.
"Wow!" Lyra exclaimed and started flying up and down the hall. Sara flew up right beside her and they started exploring the palace from up above. Sara and Lyra flew over to the cell Mrs. Coulter had been in but she wasn't there anymore. All of a sudden Sara heard a shout that sounded a lot like Roger! She turned around and there he was. Lyra shouted with glee and bounced up and down in the air. Sara flew over to Roger and hugged him tight.
"Sara! Lyra! I found you! After you two fell out of the balloon Mr. Scoresby crashed it into a mountain and some bears brought me here! You guys can fly? Can I fly to?!" Roger said. He was bouncing up and down with excitement.
"Yes you can roger just take my hand and I'll show you." Sara said and she held Roger's hand. Her eyes danced with excitement as Roger started floating into the air. The three of them flew around and around. They flew past the room in which Mrs. Coulter was signing papers to take custody of Sara and Lyra and now Roger. Mrs. Coulter felt the rush of air and poked her head out to see what was happening. She nearly fainted when she saw all three children flying around. The monkey was holding his mouth closed and dancing around. Sara, Lyra, and Roger all landed in front of the band room door and Sara silently opened it up. Mrs. Coulter followed the children and peeked inside the room. They were playing with the instruments. Sara was playing on the piano, Lyra was playing the drums, and Roger was playing the electric guitar. They actually sounded really good! Mrs. Coulter was stunned. She walked into the room and stood statue still. All the children stopped and looked at her. Lyra dropped the drum sticks and flew up to the ceiling followed by Roger but Sara stayed grounded.
"Um, hi. Are we going now?" Sara asked. An innocent little smile appeared on her face and Mrs. Coulter smiled back.
"We will leave in a little bit but I was wondering, how is it that Lyra and Roger are flying?" Mrs. Coulter asked.
"I don't know, I tried transferring the ability to them and it worked. But I don't think it will work on you."
"Ok then. Well. Pack your things and we will get going."
"Ok." Sara said and flew into the air. Mrs. Coulter walked out of the room, her heart beating a mile a minute. It was amazing how now all the children could fly! Only a few seconds later did Lyra, Roger, and Sara fly out of the room and right above Mrs. Coulter. There laughter echoing through the palace. Pete was flying sleepily behind and the golden monkey grabbed it by the tail feather.
"What the hell?! Get off of me! What do you want?" Pete cried with anger.
Sara stopped dead in her tracks and sank to the floor slowly.
"What's wrong Sara?" Lyra asked as she sank with her. Pan and Salcila fluttered around Roger and Lyra's heads.
"It feels like Pete is in trouble. I feel the same way when the people at Bolvangar seized Pete in there bare hands. You don't think Mrs. Coulter…" Sara said but she trailed off. Her eyes twitched and her body shook from time to time and then she fell completely still except for her breathing and fell back ward asleep. Lyra starred wide eyed but she fell beside Sara and lifted her head. Sara was breathing but Lyra wasn't sure what had happened. Lyra dropped Sara and flew down the hall to Mrs. Coulter. She was putting her gloves on and walking with her head down. Pete was fluttering sleepily above the golden monkey's head just out of reach. But the golden monkey was desperately trying to grab at Pete and Lyra didn't know why.
"Mother, Sara just fell un conscious, do you know what happened to her?" Lyra asked. Mrs. Coulter blushed and looked up.
"Yes. Pete flew straight into my daemon and he got so frightened he smacked him down which made him dazed. It was all an accident." Mrs. Coulter lied. Lyra shrugged and Pan grabbed Pete and flew away. Mrs. Coulter let a sigh of relief escape her throat and kept walking.
"DON'T GO!" Sara shouted as she woke up. She sat bolt up right and looked around her. She was in a zeppelin and Lyra was at the window and a pretty blue dress.
'Morning Sara. Ready to go?" Lyra asked. Sara got up out of bed and peered out of the window. They were in London and Roger was sitting in a arm chair. Just at that moment she felt someone push her out the window and she fell, down down to the city streets below.
"NOOOOO!" Sara shouted as she woke up for the second time. She was in the same bed except Lyra and Roger were n the bed. Sara ran over to the window and looked over. They were still in Svalbard. Sara ran over to Lyra and roger and woke them up. Lyra yawned and pushed her self up while Roger rolled out of bed and landed on the floor with a thud.
"It's time to get out of here!" Sara said and pulled Lyra out of bed and to the closet.
A/N this one I wrote at home in bed with my BK Mocha Joe at my side feeling like a true author. What do you think of this chapter?
