Hey wonderful people! This popped in my head today and I thought I'd try it out. It's my first FF with them as shadowhunters, so please be nice. I will switch POVs as usual. As always, It will be Magnus and Alec. This first chapter had meeting CLary and Magnus in it, following the book a bit. This is only because I didn't know how else for them to re-meet, sort of. You'll understand once you read. The rest of this will mention things in the book, but will mostly be about what Alec does while Jace and Clary are out looking for her mom without the others in the books. :)B

DISCLAIMER: I'M NOT COOL SO NOT CC, SHE OWNS WHAT YOU KNOW

ALEC

Growing up in New York is hard for anyone, growing up at the Institute with Robert and Maryse Lightwood is almost worse. For as long as I can remember, and probably before that, there were books and weapons training. Our "tutor" if you will, Hodge, taught us most of the books stuff while my father taught us the weapons. My mother taught my sister about the woman's role among our kind...Shadowhunters. Growing up, my sister, Isabelle, and I knew everything there was to know about Shadowhunters. We knew our ancestors and the contributions they made to our race as well as the downfalls. I also remember some fighting from my parents as well, till Max was born and Jace moved in.

I was 10 when my brother was born and my best friend moved into our home. We had never had other children in our home and so Izzy and I loved having someone to play with we weren't related to. That was also the first time I saw him. I still don't know his name as we weren't welcomed into the room when he came, but I know he's a warlock. With our learning, especially when we all got old enough to actually train with weapons, we learned how to tell who was a downworlder and who wasn't. Downworlders were not only warlocks, but vampires, fae, and werewolves as well. Basically anything mundanes tell their children to scare them so they stay in bed at night is a downworlder. He was something else though. I could explain it, what he did to me. I was only 10 though.

Jace was an enigma as well and it had taken me about three years to figure him out. I was looking at Jace, my best friend, as he was looking at the mundane girls we saw outside the institute. While he would talk about how cute they were, how good their ass looked in jeans, I was thinking that about him. I knew how Shadowhunters looked at people that found the same sex attractive and so I threw those feelings on the back burner. I told myself I didn't like Jace, not that way. As we grew though, the feeling got stronger. The first time I felt jealous was when he dated Kaelie, a fae that worked at Taki's. I hate myself for it because I can't change it. And damn, do I want to change it.

I was just glad it wasn't the warlock I saw when I was 10 that brought these feelings. It was easy to hide from Jace now that I had the practice. Jace and I grew close and when he asked me to be his parabatai, I was overwhelmed. I knew that was as close as I would ever get to him, and so I took the chance. Now...we've been parabatai for about two years and it was awesome. We are both skilled in different areas and I love that about our work. Izzy joins us on patrols now that our parents says she's old enough. It's a new thing for girls to be able to fight all the time. When our mother was younger, it wasn't really done that way. It was a thing my mother always told us she was glad had changed.

"Alexander...Pay attention."

I turn to see my sister holding open the back door of the club we were patrolling tonight and winked as I followed her in, Jace behind me. We let Izzy do her thing while we walked around and waited. We were in a club for teens and so knew Izzy would be able to attract the demon that was here.

"Thirsty?"

I shake my head at Jace and sigh. "We are working, Jace. Izzy find him, yet?"

Jace smiled and tilted his head. I turn and watch as Izzy led the blue haired demon into the janitor's closet and smirk, I really need the fight. Fighting helped with the frustration of watching Jace take his many conquests after the fight. Jace opens the door to the closet and I sneak in, getting my bow ready. We hear Izzy with the guy and wait for her signal. I signal Jace to be quiet as we sneak up and as soon as her whip cracks, Jace and I make ourselves known. I listen as Jace debates with the guy about what he's doing and why before we kill the fucker. Me, well...I'm just ready to get home. As my parabatai stabs the fucker, we hear a scream and turn to see a girl in the corner. I look at Izzy while Jace stares at the girl and my sister is as lost as I was. She runs out before we can stop her and I close my eyes.

"She's going to bring someone back here. How did she even see us?"

"We need to see Hodge." Izzy explained.

Jace and I nod, following her out before we get a person and can't explain why that girls says we killed someone. We run all the way back to the institute and Jace is quiet as Izzy explains the girl and what she saw. I notice Jace sit and his face is set in confusion. I get him to look at me and he just gives a half smile, trying to tell me he's alright. I don't think he is though, but I can't figure out why. Hodge tells us to bathe and sleep it off, so I head to the weapons room and sit my bow and arrows in their place. I walk my way to the bedroom and stop when I hear Jace and Izzy in her room.

"Are you sure you're ok?" I hear my sister.

"I don't know. That girl...Iz, she did something to me. I don't know what, but I feel funny."

"Whatever, Jace. You probably just think she's hot and want her naked."

I feel the same jealousy and insecurity crawl up my skin and I turn before I can hear anything else. I shut the door to my room and start to strip my clothing so I can shower. I did like that each room had its own bathroom. I take a quick shower and then wrap a towel around my waist. I grab a pair of shorts and pull them up and then crash on my bed to sleep.

Tossing and turning all night with visions of Jace and that damned girl that saw us sucks ass. I know he's straight, but the things my head can come with isn't healthy. I really need to figure out how to get these feelings under control. It had been a few days now since that happened, but the girl's mom disappeared and now her and her mundane friend moved into the institute. I also found out her name is Clary and apparently she's at least half a shadowhunter, which is why she can see us and what we did a few nights ago. Tonight we were going to some party, well...crashing it is more like it.

The High Warlock of Brooklyn had put some block on Clary's mind and so we were going to see if he could lift it. I pull out a pair of black leather pants and a black shirt to get dressed for the day. After putting the pants on, I hear a knock and open the door to see my sister. "What?"

"Jace and Clary went to see some psychic that lives in her building. Wanna spar? I know her being here is hard on you."

I sit down and put my shoes on, not looking at her. "I don't know what you're talking about, Iz."

She cocks her hip out and puts her hands on her hip, looking a lot like our mother. She lifts an eyebrow and stares at me. "You know I know, Alec. I also know that Jace and that girl are bothering you. If you just told hi…"

"I'm not telling Jace. It wouldn't do any good anyway. It's not like he's going to jump in my bed if I tell him, Isabelle."

She sighs and deflates a little. "Maybe not, but he would try not to flirt and get into Clary's pants around you. He loves you and you're his parabatai, Alec. He wouldn't want to hurt you on purpose or by accident and you know it."

I sigh and run a hand down my face. "I know, Iz. I will, just not now. We have more to worry about. We have this thing with the warlock and the cup and Valentine. Let's just get through this, alright."

She sits next to me and wraps an arm around my shoulders and lays her head on the one next to her.

"I know and you're right. We have too much. I'm always here, brother."

I turn and kiss the top of her head in a simple gesture. "Alright. What time's th…"

"ALEC, IZZY."

We look at each other and run out to find Jace. We found Jace and Clary in the library and she's breathing heavily.

"What Jace?" Izzy questions.

"She didn't know where Clary's mom is or about this Magnus Bane. Well, that's not true. She knew of him since she's a witch. I swear, Clary's mom made sure they were off the radar for some reason."

We look at Clary, who's looking a bit pale. "You ok?" I ask.

She looks at me and I see a bit of surprise. I don't blame her as I usually pretend she isn't here.

She nods. "Yes, just surprised. What time is the party thing? What time is it now? Oh, and Simon's on his way."

I sit in a chair as they discuss and explain to Clary what a downworlder party will most likely hold. I don't really care because I won't have to take charge. With Izzy and Jace there, no one will recognize me anyway. I love it that way, it's easier to strike if they don't expect me. This is one reason I loved my bow, I didn't have to be close up to harm them if needed. Hodge comes in about dinner time and we tell him our plan and some more of what Jace and Clary found out. Izzy pulls me out, telling me to change my shirt to a tighter one. I roll my eyes, just doing what I'm told. That's one thing I learned over the years; Izzy will kick my ass in a fight.

I pull on a tighter black shirt and my boots before heading up to grab my weapons. I put my steele in my left boot and my seraph blade in my right. My bow and quiver go into place and then walk to meet everyone at the door. Jace and Simon were already there and I roll my eyes when the girls meet up. Izzy dressed Clary as a whore and Jace was already drooling. I kept quiet as we made our way to the apartment of the High Warlock. I wonder why he's so high and mighty, what he did to gain that spot. Jace gets us in and then we walk around, looking for a guy that none of us really know what he looks like.

"Nephilim, I don't remember inviting you."

We turn to see a man with a lot of glitter in his hair and on his body. He seemed familiar, but I can't really tell because of the lighting. His eyes, though, I see those. They're enchanting. They look like a cat's eye and it must be his signifier for what he is. I stay behind my parabatai and my sister as they question the warlock. My body is reacting to the eyes because he's looking at me as he talks to them. He brings a hand up and this thumb brushes over his bottom lip. He has rings on every finger and it's everything I can do not to walk up to him.

"I'll help but only for the hot one."

"Thanks." I hear from my sister and Jace.

"No, blue eyes."

They turn to look at me and I look down, trying not to let it on I'm blushing. They turn back to the warlock and Clary follows him to the other room, Jace following her. I stand outside the room while they talk for protection and Izzy is watching Simon. I can't hear what's going on, but I hear Izzy yell for help and something about Simon. I open the door and look at the three of them.

"Izzy...Simon, we have to go."

Jace and Clary get up and I lead them to the door.

"Wait."

I turn to see Magnus holding on my wrist. I can feel everyone looking at me, Jace yelling at me to leave.

"Call me, blue eyes."

He lets me go and I run off after the others, trying to figure out how exactly I was do that and why I really wanted to in the first place.

I reached the others as we hit the subway, finding out the stupid mundie drank a blue drink from the vampires. That's just fucking fantastic. So now, not only did we have to crash a downworlder party, but we had to break into a fucking vampire lair. This fucking girl was just going to get us all killed. I catch Izzy looking at me and she's smiles. I shake my head and put thoughts of the warlock out of my head. We stop where we know is close to the hotel where the next is said to be. Jace and Clary lead the way and some teenager helps us into the back of the building when we find it.

"This place gives me the creeps." I whisper to my sister.

She nods and we all stick close together.

The next thing I know, we're surrounded. I feel Jace on my left and Izzy on my right. I don't really give a shit where Clary is because she's the reason we're in this fucking place to start with, dragging Simon with us. When the fighting starts, I lose sight of the others, just trying to keep them off me. There are too many of them and it's taking everything just to stay standing. I back up and feel Jace's back against mine and then more vamps are surrounding us. As they close in, Clary puts the rat that is Simon into her bag. Before the vamps attack though, wolves crash in through the windows. This gives us a chance to escape, thank you downworlders who hate each other.

When we get back to the institute, I go straight to my room. I stip off my weapons, putting them in a chair by my bed and then sit to take my boots off. I strip out of my shirt and then tug my pants off as I head to the shower. I let the water run over me and sigh, my muscles loosening up from the fight. I really needed that fight tonight, so I didn't hate it that much. It helped with whatever I was feeling at that fucking party. I shake my head as the glitter infested warlock invades my thoughts. I really wish I knew why he affected me. The only warlock to cause confusion was the one that use to show up and talk to my parents. Whatever. I get out and just walk to my room. I pull up a pair of boxers and then fall on the bed, sleep claiming me instantly.

Hope you guys liked the first chapter! Please leave me any comments you may have to let me know, especially if I should keep writing this one. I'm not sure where I'm going with it, but it seems like it's gonna be a fun ride! :)B
