Chapter 2: The Invisible Wall

"We're going to meet again!" Lyra exclaimed.

"Yes but it won't be easy."

"I don't care! Anything to see Will again."

"Well then try to imagine an invisible line dividing the two worlds.

When you see it just concentrate on walking through it, not around it."

"Ok, I'll try." Lyra finished.

Lyra concentrated as hard as she could on an invisible line, but she

couldn't do it. "I can't see it." She told the angel.

"Don't think about blocking everything else out, think only about that line."

"Ok, I'll try again."

She concentrated and after a few minutes she saw a red line coming

from the sky to the ground. She walked forward concentrating on

that one line. Then, she was falling. Lyra looked down and saw the

ground 50 feet below. Then two hands caught her and took her slowly

to the ground. "Thank you Xaphania."

"It was my fault, I should have told you you'd appear above the ground."

"It's ok"

Lyra looked down and felt her heart jump two beats. There sitting on

the bench was Will and his Daemon Kirjava. "Oh pan look! It's Will!"

"I know."

"Oh will I love you so much! I love you from the bottom of my heart."

Then as Lyra was about 10 feet from the ground she couldn't

hold it in any longer, "WILL! IT'S LYRA! OH WILL I LOVE YOU!"

Will turned around with a stunned look on his face. Lyra could see

tears coming from his eyes. When Xaphania landed they ran

towards each other. They kissed each other's lips passionately, drinking

in each other's flesh. Xaphania watched their daemons cuddle up

together, and lick the others fur. The world seemed to freeze so that

moment could last forever. "Oh Lyra, how did you get here" Will asked.

"Xaphania came and said that he had good news. That we would meet

again soon. Then she showed me how to walk from world to world like

your dad could."

"Oh I'm so glad you came. I don't think I could last another minute without

you." Then they kissed and kissed for what only seemed like a few

seconds but was 10 minutes. "Lyra then said, "Thank you Xaphania, for

bringing us together again."

"I did not bring you together because of love, it's because you have

another task."

"What! I thought we were done!"

"So did I but the angels who where following Metatrone have regrouped and they are

under a new leader named Majuka. They intend to close the window

leading from the world of the dead."

" Oh no!"

"Yes it's true."

"So we're going to have to get some allies and hold them off?

"Exactly"

"Well, we could get the armored bears. Who do you think Will?"

"Maybe the witches from Serifina pecelas clan maybe even Ruta Skadi's.

I think we could get the gallivespians too."

"We could also get the Gyptians! And the Mulefa!"

"Well" Xaphania said, "No matter how many people we get, it'll be difficult."

So they thought about whom else they could ally with.
