"no i am a warlock...i- i can't fight demons, i make spells...i- i think you've got the wrong person" i sniffed, placing my thumping head in my hands. I tried to think this all through, but it didn't add up in my mind. however i think they may be right, but i'm not sure how.
"jade...you were born a shadow hunter, you even trained as one for 5 years" victor adds calmly, placing his cold hand on my shoulder and the other pointing at the 4 people in the corner. there faces dropped in confusion, and started turning towards each other. I look up at his unruly eyebrows and gave a lopsided grin.
"jadene rose?" a voice whispered, my eyes darted towards them and they all looked at me with widened eyes. the name sounded familiar, is it my mums or something? i turn back towards victor, the corners of his eyes crinkled.
"yes jace, this is jadene rose, the magical shadow hunter. we brought you here because we're in need of some of your...power" he added comfortingly, the corners of his mouth turned into a calming smile. i furrowed my eyebrows at the words 'some of your power' what could that possibly mean but also realising that i was the two most powerful human kinds possible shook me up.
"how is that possible" i stammered trying to calm myself down, i glance towards the ceiling, trying to catch my breath and look down to see him but he quickly turns avoiding eye contact.
"i'm not sure jade but i think you were experimented on...anyways that's not the point, this is your home now" he explained, he looks over at the 4 and signals for them to come over, he slowly gets up and rubs my shoulder gently before leaving. i stare at the floor in utter shock and confusion. my breathing became heavy and look beside me to see him. suddenly i was calmed.
"i thought you died" the girl cries pulling me up from the bed into her warm arms. her tight grip almost shakes me up, pulling me into reality. suddenly she lets go and a handsome blonde boy stands opposite me, i smile
"im jace, this is izzy, alec and clary" the blond boy speaks, my head moves to the direction of his bruised hand. alec. he looks up at me with an empty expression and turns back to the ground instantly.
"clary is new here as well" izzy smiles, putting her arm on my shoulder, i smile back and cant help but look towards alec. he is looking down avoiding any possible eye contact. jace looks at izzy and sits down beside him.
"alec..." he whispers pushing his head through his arms, alec remains looking down. jace looks back up and walks with alec out. i was confused, izzy turns towards me and shakes her head with a smile.
"don't mind him he's probably overwhelmed" she smiled, bring me and clary to the bed, i smile worriedly looking through the door seeing his tall faint figure in the distance. clary looks at me with a smile
"it is so cool how your a magic shadowhunter surely that makes you sooo powerful" she smiles eagerly at me, i smile back feeling flattered
"i wouldn't say that, all my magic is self taught through objects im not a 'bam light come outta my hand' kinda warlock" i giggle, placing my hand out and putting an american accent on. i felt myself warming up to the girls as the laugh with me, izzy smiles at me
"you have not changed" she smiles looking at me, i smiled sideways towards her and look down. Jace walks through the doors and signals for me to come up, my heart flutters and i walk over practically holding my breath. Jace takes my hand and smiles
"oh wow Jadene...i- i mean jade, we thought you died" he stammers whilst scratching his blonde hair, i smile at him and look down. he lifts my chin up and brushes my hair behind my ear and pulls me in his arms. His big arms wrap around my cold back instantly warming me up.
"alec.. i think you should talk to him" he smiles reassuringly, looking down at the floor, i furrow my eyebrows, scrunching my lips
"have i missed something cus i dont quite know why it's so tense"i ask confused folding my arms together
"oh uh...id ask him but you guys where close...almost parabatai" he breathes, i look up at him and he stares at me with sudden sad eyes
"wha..what's a parabatai" i ask confused wondering what it could possibly be. he looks around and back at me, fiddling with his fingers
"you will fight together as lifelong partners, bound together by oath. You do anything and everything for each other." he adds, bringing me through the hallway and into the main hall.
"why almost?" i question, he runs his dirty fingers through his hair. and looks down
"because you left, and yes that hurt us all, but it killed alec." he says as we stop, i turn to see alec lightwood in the training area. i almost forgot to breathe. he was angry and hitting with such emotion, his hair was swaying with every hit and dripping with sweat, his face flushed and puffy and eyes so focused. he was dressed only in shorts, his tanned body was reflecting in the light from the sweat dripping down his abs. My jaw dropped, and jace was stood smirking at me
"not much has changed i see" he laughs and taps my shoulder, i quickly move out of eyeline of him and blush as i look towards jace. he smirks and looks me up and down
"ill leave you too it" he smiles and walks back down the hallway to clary and izzy. i sit down on the table by the training area, i stare at the surroundings, such high technology. i turn back and see him leaning his face against the bag, out of breath. I turn my head at him and walk over
"alec..are you okay?" i asked placing my hand on his sweaty shoulder, his body shivers as he feels my touch. he shuts his eyes tight and scrunches his face. he slowly faces the table and i turn towards him. His body was bruised and his hands were sore and bleeding. I lifted his hand up to get a better look at his knuckles. I delicately thumb away the streak of blood down his arm, saying nothing as he examines it. After a brief pause, my heart skips a beat as he looks at me dead in the eyes. His voice is quiet and tense, their anger barely restrained.
"im fine okay" he mutters, pushing me off. my eyes rounded as he walked off and slid a t-shirt down his wet body. i take a step towards him and place my arm stopping his track
"your hurt" i stutter, looking down at his bruised arm, i dart my eyes to his which where glistening with pain.
"im fine. dont ask again" he says seriously and makes his way out of the training room, staring down at the ground expressionless. i look towards the ceiling pushing my hands through my greasy hair. great first impression lightwood.
SURPRISE CHAPTER!
I hope you enjoyed this next chapter! Yes you and alec wont be in love straight away, now that isn't very alec like. Why is he so angry with you? Is it built up emotions after seeing your face out of the blue? Anyway i hope you like how the story is going so far :)
ALSO i was thinking of doing the next chapter as Alecs POV from this situation, do you want that?
