Chapter one: Blue Flame.

'Alec, Alec!' I felt a pinch, 'huh, did you say something Izzy?' Izzy my younger sister rolled her eyes, 'I said, hurry up and get our tickets, you're holding up the line.' I looked around and saw the cinema worker waiting impatiently. 'Sorry about my brother, he's day dreaming again.'

'Izzy shh! Hi, could I get three tickets to the Transformer movie?' Izzy took the tickets and winked at the worker.

'Alec! Izzy! Hurry up! I want to get the good seats!' Max my little brother yelled excitedly from the cinema entrance. Today is his 9th birthday; all he wanted was a couple of Manga books and to see this movie. We went into the cinema and found the 'good seats' that Max wanted. The lights dimmed and the movie came on the big screen, I tried to focus on the movie but my mind kept thinking of other things.

Half way through the movie I saw a blue flame but it was gone in an instant, I looked to where I thought I'd seen the flame come from and saw no signs of it. I looked at my siblings to see if they notice anything, Max was staring wide-eyed and smiling at the screen and Izzy was staring at this guy, he looked familiar, but I wasn't sure. It looked like they didn't see the flame. Maybe I imagined it, I tried to focus on the movie but I saw the flame again, this time I was sure I didn't imagine it, I saw where it came from, it came from a man with eyes like a cat. It wasn't a man but a warlock; he came and sat next to me.

'You shouldn't use your powers in public,' I told him.

'You shouldn't be so sexy in public,' he replied and I blushed at the word 'sexy' 'someone might kidnap you and keep you as their own,' he added a wink, just for effect. I felt my cheeks burn even more. I could feel someone watching us, I turned and saw Izzy looking at us, and she must have heard us talking. She leaned toward me and whispered in my ear, 'he's cute and he likes you, ask him out!'

'How can you tell he likes me? And I can't just ask him.' She sounded impatient when she replied, 'just look at how he's looking at you and how he's talking-'

'If I may cut in,' the warlock said, I jumped; I didn't think he was listening. 'I would love to go on a date with you.'

The lights turned on, the credits were rolling on the screen and the people around us were standing up and stretching. I looked at the warlock, his hair was spiked up and full of glitter, he stood up, and offered me his hand, I took it. He raised my hand and kissed it, 'My name is Magnus, Magnus Bane.' He smiled, he had the most amazing smile I've ever seen, '..And your name is?'

'Um, m-m-y,' I hated myself for stuttering, I cleared my throat, 'my name is Alexander Lightwood. But call me Alec.'
