Lyra is a survivor.
    
     A fighter.
    
    Ever since witnessing her parents' assassination at the age of eleven, Lyra's only motive in life has been to uphold her mother's dying words- to be strong and survive. But surviving outside of The Walls- outside of The Sanctuary- is more like a drawn-out death sentence. A cruel and ruthless city, Tartarus is run by the Tribes whose motto is simple, "Join or die." 
    
    Refusing to join and determined to live, to become The Rogue, Lyra fights to survive in this savage world. But who can she trust, when no one can be trusted? Not even herself.

The Fractured City by ansleemi
21 parts Ongoing Mature
The city never sleeps. Its veins are steel, its breath recycled, its heartbeat a hum beneath the polished floors. Every corridor, every vent, every flickering screen is watched. Every citizen is measured. Every choice recorded. Lyra Vale knows this. She has always known. And yet, nothing prepared her for the day the city shifted beneath her feet. The day the Test began. The day she learned that her life-and the life of everyone she loves-was not hers to hold, but theirs to calculate. She wakes before the chime, before the turbines thrumming through the sectors. Her sleep is fractured, haunted by light and sound, by voices she shouldn't hear and images she shouldn't see. But even in her dreams, she knows the truth: in this city, potential defines worth, and defiance defines death. Outside, the city hums. Surveillance drones drift silently, lights glinting on steel surfaces. Screens flicker with promises, threats, propaganda: Obedience ensures safety. Defiance ensures extinction. Lyra's heart beats faster. She knows the system, its calculations, its rules-and she knows its one flaw: humans. Humans do not always follow patterns. Humans do not always obey. She does not yet know that she is about to become the anomaly the city cannot process, the variable the Architect cannot contain. That the Test is only the beginning. That the system is watching, and it has begun to speak. And when it does, Lyra will learn that survival is more than following rules-it is learning to fight a machine designed to predict every thought, every fear, every heartbeat. Because in Sector Nine, everything is measured. Except the human heart.

Lyra Narcissa Malfoy always thought the world was split into good and bad people...that the good people lived and the bad people died. Until, one day, she realised everyone thought of good and bad differently so it didn't really exist at all. Demons lurked in everyone but Lyra Malfoy had a habit of burning them out. Where dragons roamed, Lyra Malfoy wasn't far behind. [Goblet of Fire to Dealthy Hallows] [Harry Potter x Fem!OC]
