Davina hated Simon's van with a passion. He had bought it second hand for dirt cheap and he got what he had paid for. It was an old, yellow hunk of metal covered in a plethora of art work created by Clary and Davina due to Simon's never-ending indecisiveness about the name of his band.
The trio and Maureen had been sitting on top of Simon's hunk of metal since their gig had ended just watching the stars. Davina was scribbling in a small notebook as the others talk about Jocelyn's unwillingness to talk about her past.
"Thanks for being our roadies," Maureen says once the topic of conversation changes and Davina just hums in response.
"Yeah, and thank you both for being our artists in residence," Simon adds.
"Of course"
Simon hops off the van and begins to change which attracts stares from Clary and Maureen which then resulted in an eye roll from Davina.
"You're both perverts," Davina jibes before hopping down from the van. "So, as we have all hoped for a while, the name champagne enema is done right?"
"What were we thinking, right?"
"Maureen I know you're joking," Davina begins. "But seriously, what were you thinking?"
"But now... we're Rock Solid Panda," Simon says.
"I don't know how," Davina says. "But that name feels worse and like an innuendo at the same time"
"Yeah, we are"
"Rock Solid Panda, coming up. I'm feeling inspired" Clary shakes her can of spray paint.
"I'm glad one of us is," Davina mutters.
Davina steps away from the van and stares at the large tag she had drawn on the side with a frown. She didn't recognise it from any runic language or any kind of code she had ever seen.
"What's that tag?"
"Weird, I didn't even mean to draw that," Davina says.
"You know they have confirmed cases of people waking up in the morning speaking French, and they never even studied the language"
"Do you think that's some kind of language?" Clary asks.
"Sanskrit maybe"
"Latin?" Simon says.
"That's not Latin"
"What about Archaic Latin?"
"It's not Archaic Latin either," Davina says.
"How do you know?" Maureen asks.
"I got bored learning Classical Latin so I-"
Davina's sentence is cut off when she is harshly knocked to the side by a real-life Adonis who she would have put at two or three years older than herself. The man doesn't even cast her a second glance and continues walking, eliciting a scoff from Davina.
"I know you're hot and everything, but it doesn't give you the right to be an ass,"
"You can see me?" The blonde asks and Davina rolls her eyes.
"Well, it was hard to miss you after you nearly threw me into this hunk of junk,"
"You have the Sight"
"Well obviously I have sight, do you see a dog and a stick?"
"How can I not know who you are?"
"Has that line seriously ever worked for you? Even once?" Clary moves from behind Davina.
"Both of you have the sight,"
The man's eyes flicker gold and Davina's widen in turn taking a step forward.
"I-"
"Jace!"
Jace casts Davina another look before turning and jogging into the Pandemonium, leaving Clary and Davina in the dust.
"He'd have been so much hotter if he'd just kept his mouth shut," Davina sighs. "Pretty boys never have any manners"
"I know, what a dick," Clary says.
"You mean the imaginary dude you were both talking to?" Simon says.
"No, the guy right there, running into the club," Davina points to the mop of blonde hair that was slowly disappearing from her field of vision.
"Clary, Davina, there's nobody there"
"The guy covered in tats, like-" Claryjumps in to try and support Davina.
"What guy are you talking about?" Simon asks.
"You guys seriously don't see him?"
"No"
"Okay, could you stop making me feel insane?" Clary asks. "I know what we saw"
"Could you stop acting that way?"
Davina turns to Maureen, shooting the young woman a murderous glare and Maureen's mouth snaps shut and she casts her eyes to the side.
"What was in your guys' coffees?" Simon asks.
Davina rolls her eyes and begins to walk towards the club, Clary in tow as Simon calls after them.
The dancefloor was invisible to the naked eye due to the sheer amount of people in the club. It was wall-to-wall people dancing to the loud music that was causing the floor to vibrate beneath Davina's feet. Hands reach out trying to pull both girls to dance with them.
"Touch me again and you'll lose your hand," Davina snaps and the couple who had been trying to pull her in hastily retreat.
Davina's eyes lock on Jace, the blonde mop disappearing behind a curtain and Davina begins shoving people out of her way as Clary apologises behind her. Davina gets to the curtain and a man blocks her way.
"No can do sweetheart,"
Davina stares up at the man and smiles softly, her voice turning almost musical and lilting as it travels to his ears. Clary frowns when she can see Davina's voice travelling to the man's ear and just rubs her eyes, assuming the lights are messing with her vision.
"Come on, how much trouble could we cause?" The man grins dopily at Davina who smiles back. "We have a friend who ran back here, and you know how it is. Have to keep everyone safe"
The man nods pushing back the curtain and Davina walks in, not before hearing Clary speak to the man guarding the curtain.
"Cool contacts,"
"You are useless," Davina hisses. "That's what you go with?"
"I don't flirt" Clary hisses back.
"Clearly!"
Davina watches as Jace sways with a woman in a god-awful pink dress, whispering in her ear. The woman appears to be talking back to Jace but things take a turn when a glowing blade appears in Jace's hand.
"Watch out!" Clary shouts, rushing forward.
Clary shoves the woman away from Jace causing the woman to crash onto the couch. The woman's head snaps around and out of her mouth protrudes four razor-sharp tentacles. Davina reaches out and yanks Clary back, pulling the girl behind her.
Jace, the blonde, spins around and stabs the woman causing her to burn up into a pile of ash. Another mutated person comes at Jace from behind but is stopped by a whip wrapping around his wrist. Davina's eyes follow the whip to see one of the most stunning women she had ever seen in her life.
"Are you hurt?" Jace asks Davina who opens her mouth to respond but she is interrupted.
More of the mutated people appear and begin to attack Jace. In the ambush he drops his sword which Davina picks up, the blade glowing white in her grasp.
"LOOK OUT!" Jace shouts.
Davina looks up to see the man she had flirted with before running towards her. Davina takes a deep breath before swinging the blade down, slashing it across the man's chest. The man howls in pain stumbling back and Davina stabs the sword down into his chest.
Davina throws the sword to the ground before grabbing Clary's hand and dragging her from the club, hailing the first cab she can find.
"We have to talk to your mom," Is all Davina says and Clary just nods wordlessly.
