Rhys POV
Everything was a blur. My heart was beating out of my chest and the wall of fire was still coming. I wanted to stop time. Nesta and Elain followed me to the weapons room. Not pausing for even a second we  took what we could and started getting ready. Barely breathing I put on my armor.
It will be alright
Feyre whispered through the bond. I responded with a cold silence. I needed to stay focused. As I made my way outside fairies were already fleeing from the city. The wall was dangerously close and there was no way everyone would get out. I spread my wings and flew up. I noticed Mor and Amren both enforcing the shields around Velaris. Hopefully it will help slow down Laura long enough to evacuate the rest of the city.
"We need to get rid of her to destroy the wall." Cassian said next to me. "Your right." I muttered. The rest of the inner circle gathered. Elain and Nesta were on the ground with Amren and Mor. The screams of the faeries as they ran for safety echoed in my ears and suddenly I charged.
Mor POV
In the sky Rhysand was leading the others towards the wall. The shields were slowing it down but parts of Velaris were already in flames. My heart raced as I ran through the streets shouting at people. Amren, Nesta and Elain were doing the same. My lungs were trying to tell me to slow down but I couldn't. Fae children were screaming and mothers were crying. Everything was in chaos and there wasn't much I could do. Sprinting across the bridge I looked up to see Laura staring down at the mess she's made with smile on her face. I was going to kill her. No, Rhys was. He, Cas and Az were already pulling their swords out and charging straight at Laura. This could not end well.
Feyre POV
I watched in horror as Rhys charged recklessly into battle Azriel and Cassian with him. But then something else caught my eye. From the wall of fire something began to emerge. I flew near it to make out what it was. My heart skipped a beat. An army. A huge one. Every single soldier made of solid gold, armed with a flaming sword and a shield. I could already tell that after this there will be nothing but ashes left of Velaris.

Hey guys! Sorry this took so long again. I am very busy lately. Thank you all for reading. I'm going to start a new story soon so I hope you will all read it. We are so close 4K so thank you everyone for your support even though I always take so long to post.
Also I know there maybe some grammatical errors so I am sorry about that.
