Chapter One
Five years later.
Magnus ran a hand through his black, non-glittery hair, not having time to have done himself up this morning. He sighed tiredly as he crossed out yet another location on the giant world map before him.
"Not there either," he mumbled to himself as he rubbed his eyes.
For years now he had been assigned the case of finding the where bouts of Clarissa and Sebastian Morgenstern, but he wasn't assigned the case until Jace Herondale joined the clave. As much as Jace spoke about being over Clary, Magnus could clearly see he wasn't. Jace's main priority for the last five years was to track down Clarissa and her family. At first Magnus refused, saying how he should just let her go, that she had chosen Sebastian over him and that was the end of it. Jace then threatened to have Magnus killed, he wouldn't have even needed a reason to have Magnus dead.
Magnus the agreed to track them, only because he still felt like he had a lot to live for. His husband Alexander Lightwood/Bane being the main reason.
Magnus closed his eyes and concentrated on the items before him. One being Clary's old drawing book, still only half full because she hadn't been able to finish it.
Having something of Clary's also helped him to track the children because of how they were in her womb when she had run, so anything close to her was close to them. Although difficulties came with this. The children must bare the runes of a nephilim before he is able to track them, like Clary. Until then he could be tracking any demon or angel out there without knowing, he found that out the hard way. Now all he can really do is wait and hope that Clary decides to draw runes on her children.
"Magnus," an unforgettable low sexy voice said from the door of Magnus' study. Magnus turned around to find two sets of bright blue eyes staring back at him, a smirk plastered on Magnus' face as he stared at the sexy shirtless man before him.
Magnus gave his husband a small tired smile as he rose to his feet.
"How has the tracking been going?" Alec asked as he walked over to Magnus and let his husband pull him into an embrace.
"I still have to wait a while longer, but hopefully not too long. All this tracking hasn't given me enough time to do what I want," Magnus complained as he stared hungry eyed down at his husband's naked chest. Alec leaned close and started to pepper Magnus' neck with soft peck's, smiling as he did so.
"Well, Jace isn't here pestering you. The front doors locked and you could just stop early tonight and no one would find out," Alec smiled wickedly.
"Oh Alexander, I love how that mind of yours works," Magnus said as he dipped his head down and kissed his lover soft and lovingly, but the kiss soon it turned hot and passionate.
Alec fumbled with the buttons on Magnus' shirt and threw the materiel to the ground, running his hands over the man's chest.
"Well, maybe I could knock off early tonight, love." Magnus agreed. Alec smiled happily and continued to kiss his partner.
"Don't worry, I'm going to make this night worth it."
….
One Month Later.
Magnus' eyes lit up as the location of the Morgenstern family came flashing across his mind. Australia. A half smile spread across his face as he rose from his seat. Magnus turned around and began to head for the door when he pulled himself to a halt.
Magnus remembered the broken expression on Clary's face when she was told that her children couldn't live. She ran away for their safety, not because she wanted to. And he would have done the same if he were her.
Magnus walked over to a wall and made himself a portal. Since there was warding around the house he can't get himself that close so he'll have to walk for most of it.
With the image fresh in his mind Magnus stepped through the portal and felt himself lift from the ground. What felt like a few seconds later Magnus came back onto the solid ground, stumbling a little as he landed.
Magnus turned his head and took in the surroundings. There was a long beach and many hills made from sand with small patches of grass far from the ocean.
Magnus ran his hair through his sweating hair and looked around. He knew which way he had to go, the only problem was it would take a while to get there for the portal could take him no longer then here. Magnus took a deep breath and began to walk, the sooner he got there the better.
…..
"Daddy, do you have to leave?" Alexa asked as she latched onto her father's leg, snuggling her head into the materiel of his pants.
Sebastian smiled down at his daughter, leaning down to bring her into a hug. "I won't be long and I always come back, you know that."
"You just always have to leave to go to circle meetings," Alexa pouted as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Now Alex," Clary said as she walked over to her daughter and husband. "You have to let daddy go to his meetings."
Clary smiled as she leaned down and picked up her daughter. Alexa rested her head on her mother's shoulder as she looked over at her father, pouting her lip and batting her emerald green eyes. Sebastian leaned down and kiss his daughter in the cheek then kissed his wife on the lips.
"Now where is Jonathan?"
"MUM DAD," they heard Jonathan yell from the front door. "There is someone here to see you both."
Clary placed her daughter back on the ground and looked at Sebastian with a worriedly look. "Who do you think it could be?" Clary asked. Sebastian shrugged in return.
"Jonathan Alexa, go to the room," Sebastian warned.
Both children could see how serious they're parents were and quickly ran off to their room, but still peaked their heads around the door way to look.
Sebastian grabbed his seraph blade and so did Clary.
They had never had visitors other than the circle before, and every time that any member from the circle had to visit they contacted Clary and Sebastian first.
Sebastian and Clary both stopped as they looked at the person waiting for them at the door.
"Clarissa….." Magnus said cheerfully. "Sebastian." He said with as little hatred as he could give.
"Magnus," Clary said, her eyes were so wide they could have popped out of her head. Clary dropped the seraph blade in her hand and ran to embrace her friend. "I've missed you all so much." Clary said, on the verge of tears.
"We've missed you too," Magnus said, hugging his red headed friend back.
"Wait," Clary suddenly said, letting go of the hug and stepping back a little. "You're here with the clave, aren't you?" Clary said, fearfully.
"What? No, no Clary I'm not. I give you my word that I have come alone," Magnus said, looking down at the fear he could see in her face suddenly turn to relief. "Now are you going to invite me in?" Magnus asked.
Magnus stepped into the house and Clary lead him to the lounge room.
"It's okay Sebastian, you can go to the meeting," Clary whispered to her husband.
"Clary I don't want to leave you and our children here alone, with the warlock" Sebastian said firmly.
"Sebastian, it's just Magnus. He won't try anything and if he does I can handle it," Clary said confidently, knowing Magnus would do nothing of the sort to hurt her or her family. "Just go, and I promise I'll contact you if anything happens," Clary said, batting her eyes at her husband knowing that he had a weakness for that.
"….Fine," Sebastian finally said, he sounded a little pissed though. He leaned down as kissed her on the lips before grabbing out his Steele. "I'll be back as soon as I can." He said, before exiting through the front door.
Clary sighed in relief and walked over to sit across from Magnus. "How did you find us?" Clary asked, no hesitation in her voice.
"You placed runes on your children, which helped me to track you," Magnus explained.
"How does that help to track us?" Clary asked, so confused at his explanation.
"When you were pregnant with them you had runes on yourself. Since I had nothing of importance to them, I grabbed something that belonged to you. I couldn't track you, so I waited for you place runes on them both, so they have your DNA and runes." Magnus explained.
Clary still felt confused by this concept, but decided to just move on to the most important question. "Are you going to tell the clave? Are you going to bring anyone here?"
"It has been what I was ordered to do. But I came here alone, since I did so do you really think I have any desire to bring the clave here?"
"You're going to cover for us?" Clary said, shock clear in her voice.
"Yes of course. I wouldn't want to destroy the family you have worked so hard to create," Magnus said heart fully.
"Now Clary if you don't mind me asking, what rune did your children have upon them?" Magnus asked, curiosity running through him.
"The parabatai rune, along with strength," Clary said. "They have been training for months to become parabatai, they were so happy when they could finally do the ceremony." Clary smiled at the memory.
"Clary, just because I'm covering for you doesn't mean the clave still can't find you with another warlock to look for you. You can't place anymore runes upon your children," Magnus warned, not wanting any harm to come to Clary or her children.
"But they'll need runes to be shadowhunters," Clary said.
Magnus sighed and looked at Clary with worriedly eyes. Clary got the hint and cross her arms over her chest. "No, I can't do that to them."
"Clary it's the only way."
"By doing what my mother did to me, erasing their memories of who they are," Clary said angrily.
"Well it's better than having them killed, tortured or experimented on by the clave," Magnus said firmly, watching a mix of emotions on his friends face. Anger, sadness, fear and guilt.
"I—I'll talk to Sebastian about it tonight and get back to you on it in the morning." Clary said, about to break into tears.
"Mum?" Jonathan said as he came into the lounge room, Alexa slowly following behind him.
Clary dried her eyes. "Jonathan, Alexa come here," Clary motioned for her children to come and sit by her. Both children quickly walked up to their mother and sat on either side of her.
"Kids, this is Magnus Bane a friend of mine," Clary introduced Magnus. "Magnus, this is Alexa Hope." Clary said as she motioned towards her daughter. Alexa tucked some of her white hair behind her ear. "And this is Jonathan Christopher," Clary said motioning to her son, she brushed some of his red hair from his face.
"Are you a warlock?" Jonathan asked as he looked at the man known as Magnus Bane before him. He had only asked because of Magnus' eyes and how they looked so cat like.
"Yes I am," Magnus smiled as he winked at Alexa, who he caught staring at his eyes. Alexa blushed slightly and straight away looked at the ground.
"Why are you here?" Alexa asked. "Are you apart of the clave? I've heard mother and father talking about them. They sound like terrible people."
"No, I'm not a part of the clave," Magnus reassured the children.
After what felt like a short while of discussing Magnus said, "Well, I better get going. I'll come back tomorrow and see what you decide," he rose from his seat.
"No," Clary exclaimed. "Stay, tell me about everyone, what's happened since I've left?" Clary asked kindly. Magnus smiled and sat back down.
"Well, I'm married to Alec."
"By the angel congratulations," Clary smiled gleefully.
"Alec? Isn't that a boy's name?" Jonathan asked. "Jonathan," Clary gasped.
"Clary its fine. Yes, Alec is a male name and he is my husband," Magnus said, no shame shown in his voice. He had had enough weird stares and heard enough comments that it no longer bothers him.
"I like that name," Jonathan smiled. He never really cared who people chose to be with, as long as they were happy. Right?
Magnus smiled at the young boy and continued to talk. "Simon is engaged to Isabelle and they have a son who is about nine now same as your children and his name is Max. And Jace…is now a member of the clave."
Magnus could see the shock on Clary's face and the sadness when he mentioned Jace. "Clary I'm sorry."
"No it's fine," tears started to weld in Clary's eyes. "It's fine."
"Are you sure, mum?" Jonathan asked. "Maybe we should go Alex." Jonathan jumped up and Alexa followed after him until they were out of the room.
"So, what else has happened in New York?" Clary said as she wiped her tears away.
…
"HE WANTS US TO WHAT?" Sebastian basically yelled as he ran his hand through his snow white locks. That warlock coming here was trouble from the beginning, Sebastian kept repeating in his mind over and over again. Magnus wanted his children to forget who they really are.
"Sebastian, he says it's the only way. Believe me I don't want them to lose their memories of who they are either, but their lives are on the line here." Clary said as a tear ran down her cheek and she covered her mouth with her hand to stop any sobs from coming out.
Sebastian looked worriedly at his wife and walked over to her, gently caressing her cheek as he wiped the tear away with his thumb. "Please don't cry my angel." Clary looked up at her husband and then leaned in towards his chest. Sebastian wrapped his arms around her as she buried her head against his chest. "We'll figure this out, together."
