SYNOPSIS: The story of a journey from a closed off and self hating young man, to a man who is proud to flaunt his differences and go for the things he really wants. Not the things society says he should want.

CHAPTER 1:

living in the institute has never been an easy mission, some would say impossible..but we're nephilim; and as Maryse would always say 'impossible means try harder'. That right there is the only piece of mothers advice I've every received. Ever since I was born I was different; turns out my mother had an affair with a nixie, (a merperson) so now I'm part merman..lucky for me I have control over the change though, because I also have angel blood..thank Raziel for that because as it is I already develop shimmery blue scales on contact with water..and that's enough to mark me as a hybrid shadowhunter. I can only imagine if I sprouted a tail every time it rained. I shook off that nasty thought and concentrated on the punching bag in front of me, I'm sure I looked like I was trying to kill it. I only stopped punching when I heard someone trying to speak to me "Hey Alec! Stop, fucking hell your hands are bleeding!" Jaces concerned voice chastised me, "I'm fine Jace" I muttered bluntly.."seriously dude, I don't know what's gotten into you lately" Jace shook his head, as I was struggling to think up a witty response Izzy burst into the training room "We've got demonic activity downtown Brooklyn!" Izzy spoke sternly, I swear this girl is only serious when she's talking about spilling something or someone's blood. I thought to myself as I slung my bow and quiver over my back and followed my siblings out of the institute, I was so absorbed in my thoughts I didn't even notice Izzy and Jace arming themselves with seraph blades. It was all second nature to me. And with each day hiding who I really am I lost myself more and more. What seemed like moments later I was violently ripped out of my internal turmoil.."By the angel...my sensor is reading demonic activity that is off the charts...!!!" Izzy remarked loudly out of shock. "It could be an ibleis demon?…" I suggested "OR it could be a greater demon and this might actually be FUN for once!!?" Jace practically screamed "yeah I like the sound of that wayland!" Izzy commented sharply, I will never understand what is so fun and intriguing about being face to face with a prince of hell, I reckon that would suck..."ALEC WATCH OUT!!!" Izzy and Jace screamed together. I ducked and rolled out of the way, I steadied myself into a fighting stance while nocking an arrow. I spun to confront my attacker. And released the arrow into the dark, angry mass of smoke. The only defining features of the now injured demon were its fiery red eyes..it's direct sign that is belongs in Edom. The sounds the demon made told me that I had only angered it..it lunged for me, it's teeth dripping with demonic ichor. And that's the last thing I remember before the darkness claimed me. Everything was black. Wherever I was time didn't seem to exist here...Maybe I was dead? No, death wouldn't be so painful...I could feel demon venom coursing through my veins with every heartbeat. I could feel the sweat beading on my skin in an attempt to cool my overheated body. It wasn't working. All around my there was nothing but pain and silence. And without a sense of time I could have been floating here for days or even years, I don't know it's so boring. Death would at least be something to do. And in that moment, the moment when I'm complaining about silence. My head splits into a constant ringing sound. It's so loud I want to cover my ears. But my arms are paralyzed beside me. Seconds? Or maybe minutes after the dreadful sound introduced itself, I felt magic coursing through my blood, combating the venom. It had to have been a warlock. This is not the feeling of an Iratze.

"Alec, Alec...can you hear me? Alec wake up." I heard Izzy's voice, but it sounded as if I was listening through water. It sounded far away and almost incoherent. "Why isn't he waking up? I thought you healed him??? We paid you!" Jace all but screamed in his usual snarky tone, I almost wanted to say a smart comment back, but my lips wouldn't obey me. "Yes, I healed him wayland. He was poisoned by an Ibleis demon, he is going to need some time. And yelling at me isn't going to make this pretty creature wake up any faster!" Said a enticingly husky voice, a male. I've never heard that voice before.. he called me pretty...

"I'm going for a shower guys, come get me if he wakes up ok?" Izzy asked quietly "of course Isabelle, I'll watch your brother." The voice said "thank you magnus, and his name is Alec" she said, I could hear the sincerity in her voice. I heard the door to the infirmary close loudly. And then the room was silent again. Except for the breaths of the two shadowhunters and the mystery warlock. "Hey magnus, that's a good idea." Jace said randomly "excuse me jace? But what the hell are you on about?" The voice said sharply, obviously annoyed by jaces sudden statement "give him a shower. Well, a bed bath. Look at all the blood. Surely he wouldn't want to wake up drenched in blood and demon ichor" the voice-Magnus-said cheekily, I could almost hear jaces eye roll.

WAIT. A BED BATH... NO NO NO NO JACE STOP STOP NO WATER PLEASE. NO

But my body was being as stubborn as ever and I couldn't move so much as a finger in disagreement. Moments later I felt a water-filled cloth against my chest, as the water ran down my chest. I waited anxiously for the inevitable rejection I was about to receive. "BY THE ANGEL. A-ARE THOSE SC-ALES. ALEC. SCALES. WHAT?" Jace stuttered in confusion, magnus surprisingly stayed quiet "interesting...wayland I know why he isn't waking up" magnus stated suddenly. "What do you mean? Why isn't he waking up? Why does he have scales for angels sakes" Jace ranted "I mean what I said. He isn't waking up because he needs to be submerged in water. He has scales because he is obviously part mermaid, or well..merman. The demon venom won't leave his system entirely till he is in his true form" magnus sounded like a professor reciting a module for a class. Damn clary and always talking about mundane lifestyles. It seems it stuck in my head. "He's a what!?" Jace screamed which was immediately followed by the sound of something hitting the ground. "Well, who would of thought the mention of a Nixie would make the high and mighty Jace wayland fall flat on his ass?" Magnus chuckled lightly, it was the most beautiful sound I'd ever heard. "Don't worry Alexander I'll look after you. Sleep my little merman sleep." Magnus whispered to me. I felt his warm soft hands on my chest, but before I could react to the sudden contact I felt a burst of magic course through me..sending me catapulting back into unconsciousness.
