Chapter 1 – Danger ahead

Anastasia Gray always wanted to be the normal kind of girl, when you looked at her you could say she were pretty normal. She was short (5'2'' tall), her hair tangled in beautiful black curls that ended in the middle of her tanned slim neck, she had a cute upturned nose and pitch black eyes. However these eyes of her were the reason she felt so out of place, since she was born with the sight.

Throughout her childhood no one wanted to get near her, all the children were afraid of her and all the parents, including her parents, though she needed some help. They thought she was crazy every time she told someone what she could see, everyone thought she was crazy expect her childhood best friend Gabriela Gonçalves. Gabi was the only person that didn't think she was hallucinating and believed when Ana said that someone skin was actually green or that there was a monster behind someone else. So the day Gabriela died were the worst day of her entire life.

It was a winter day in July, Ana had just turned twenty two and had graduated from college. So Gabriela convinced her to go to this lame party in Augusta (a street in São Paulo famous for having several parties at the same time) by car to celebrate it all.

When they were on their way to the party was when it all started. Anastasia didn't recall the accident at all, she only discovered what had happened when she woke up a week later.

"Querida, como você está se sentindo? (Sweetheart, how are you felling?)" Said a woman's voice that she didn't recognize "Não, não, não! Não tente sentar, você tem um sério machucado em todo seu lado direito. (No, no, no! Don't try to sit up yet, you have a really bad injure in your right side.)"

When she opened her eyes, Ana thought that the doctors hand that were pushing her back to bed were pink. However that pink color disappeared after a blink of the eye so Ana believed it was just a hallucination from all the medicine she had in her veins and the sleepiness in her eyes.

"Onde eu estou? (Where am I?)" Ana was lying on the bed and looking around the small white room. "Onde está minha amiga? Cadê a Gabriela? (Where is my friend? Where is Gabriela?)"

She still was a little groggy from the sleep and medicine so when she heard the doctor's answer she thought she was dreaming or had heard it wrong. How could someone joke about these kind of thing? Especially a doctor. Ana shot her a angry look and dared her to say it again. "O que você disse? (What did you say?)"

"Eu sinto muito Anastasia. Sua amiga não resistiu. Quando os carros se chocaram sua amiga bateu a cabeça e perdeu muito sangue. (I'm sorry Anastasia. Your friend couldn't make. When the cars collided your friend hit her head hard and lost too much blood)" The doctor tried to caress Ana's hair, but Ana had pulled herself away from her what made the woman make a concern and sad face. "Gabriela Gonçalves faleceu. (Gabriela Gonçalves is dead)"

Ana looked at her doctor with a blank expression deciding if she believed in her or not, seeing that her doctor was telling the truth she felt her whole body numb, she almost didn't feel the pain in her right side when she sat up and kept staring at the woman beside her bed.

"O que é que vou fazer sem ela? (What am I supposed to do without her?)"

Ana didn't cry, she just kept looking her doctor with the same blank expression. She didn't cry not because she didn't care about her best friend, since if there was anyone for whom she cared at all was her best friend and if there was someone who cared about her was Gabriela, you may notice that just by the fact that her family was nowhere to be seen. But as she couldn't remember the day her best friend died some part of her couldn't believe that she was actually dead, some part of her had hope and that part didn't let her cry. Not a single tear.

"Eu não irei te dizer o que você vai fazer sem ela. Eu só vou te falar que estarei aqui do seu lado não importa o que aconteça. Eu vou te ajudar a viver, eu te prometo isso. Ahh.. a propósito, meu nome é Alessandra Oak. (I won't tell what you are supposed to do. I'll just tell you that I'll be by your side no matter what. I'll help you live on, I promise you that. Ahh.. By the way, my name is Alessandra Oak)"

Ana though this was some kind of pep talk or something like that, after all she was just her doctor. It wasn't her job to help Ana keep moving on, however now, two months later, she was still looking after Anastasia. Every day Alessandra would be by Ana side keeping up with her treatment since after the accident Ana had some problems walking due to the pain in her injure that took almost all of her right side from under her breast down to the middle of her thigh.

These past two month Alessandra beside being Ana's best friend and being with her almost all the time, Alex (as Ana calls her) was trying to convince Anastasia to start a new life out of Brazil so she could leave everything that hurt her behind, begin from scratch. So you could see it wasn't that hard for Ana to accept that and now as the day began she was departing to go to New York meet her new roommate that Alessandra found for her. Her new life was beginning and hardly did she know that her life was actually going to be turned upside down.

It was already sunset almost time to start patrolling, however Clary and Jace were heading to Magnus house with concerns looks on both of them face. They had received a note that said: GO TO MAGNUS HOUSE. URGENT. And that was it. Clary could feel that something was happening, these past two months all the demons activity were pretty low, just one thought passed in her mind: Seelie Queen.

After eight years Clary couldn't forget what Magnus had said that the peace keeping agreement between the Seelie Court and the Shadowhunters had made them very unpleased and that one day they would counter attack. Maybe this was the day and they would be in war again. Peace is too fragile.

Jace didn't say a word beside that it would be a good idea if made a portal, it would the fastest way to get there and so I did it. When I finished drawing the rune and the portal opened Jace came by my side and hold my hand.

"I guess we will have to put our plans on hold" He said with a smirk in his lips "Too bad, I was so excited to choose which flower matched the table cloth more"

"Keep dreaming. You have until the end of the day to choose or else no games tonight" Clary said smirking back at him and pulling him close to kiss one side of his mouth and refusing to go further as he tried to make a move, blinking one eye. "No go!"

Jace looked at her with desire in his beautiful golden eyes, biting his lower lip and exhale a fine before kissing her cheeks and going inside the portal. Clary watched him disappear inside the portal and turned in her heels to look at her new apartment. It was a small apartment with two bedrooms, two bathroom a small kitchen beside the living room with only a counter separating these two spaces.

It was small but this past year it was home, more precisely it was Jace's and hers home. After she turned twenty three last year Jace asked her to live in with him, to have their own place to call home and now they were planning their weeding together. It all happened six months ago when he decided he wanted to take her to Pandemonium Club, where they had first meet, and after they danced together for some time, when they were going back home he started a monologue talking about all the things they been through together, how she was the most important person in his life, how he didn't want to ever lose her and how it was about time she became Clarissa Herondale.

After his beautiful monologue that made her cry a little she admitted he went down on one knee and said "I don't understand why I would have to be on one knee, but for you I would anything, even something namby-pamby as to be on one knee. So Clarissa Morgenstern will you marry me?" with that typical smirk on his face that she grow to love so much. Now they were planning everything together and it was perfect, so of course something had to happen. She sighed while she entered the portal and exited at Magnus and Alec's apartment. She could see they weren't expecting visits since they were in their underwear, thankfully.

"What happened? Why are you two coming uninvited?" Magnus clearly didn't want any one company tonight beside Alec's, he were looking at us with a eyebrow up.

"Not that you guys are not welcome here any time" Alec said shooting Magnus a look for being angry for no reason and then smiling back at us "I thought you guys were planning the weeding"

"As fun as that was" Jace started with his usual smirk as he headed to sit on the couch's arm beside Magnus and give him the note "We received this a few minutes ago and got worried since it says urgent. But if something urgent happens at least you two could have put some cloths, you know." He looked at Clary and blinked "Not everyone can pull underwear off like I can"

Clary rolled her eyes at the comment and almost smiled at the thought of Jace's body. Jace always had the most muscular and gorgeous body any one could have and even thought he were twenty five now he is way hotter and muscular than he was when she first meet him. But she wouldn't say that now, what a ego booster it would be for a already big ego. She notice that Alec rolled his eyes at the comment as well.

"Well, if we had send you guys these note, we would be properly dressed" Alec said frowing as he read the note in Magnu's hand. "Whoever send this note didn't warn us that there was going to be-"

A couple of knocks on the door interrupted Alec's sentence, the sound made Magnus exhale and throw his head back as he put two fingers in his forehead and rubbed it. As Clary notice that Alec started to move to answer the door she raised her hand showing she was going to answer it since she was the one closest to the door. When she opened Isabelle dashed inside raising her hand holding a note on it. Simon followed her inside calmly and notice Clary holding the door open, he smiled at her and gave her a warm hug. Now Simon was a full shadowhunter with a skin full of runes, he had ascend shortly after Jocelyn and Luke's weeding, the consul accepted to do the Ascension ceremony since Simon helped us defeat Sebastian and bring us back home. He also has recovered almost all of his memories but was happily to make new ones these past years, he and Isabelle were now happily together and lived at the institute.

"What is this all about? Who send this note to us?" Isabelle said as she gave Jace the note she had receive. He looked at me and my suspicions were confirmed, they had received the same note.

"Well, isn't that the question of the moment?" Jace gave the note to Magnus and Alec so they could see that Isabelle and Simon had receive the same note as we had.

"No one knows Izzy" Alec said frowing even more then before now that the whole gang was together looking to every ones face "Jace and Clary just got here with the same note. But I didn't send anything and since we all can see how happy Magnus is with these reunion, I can pretty much say that he didn't send it either"

"So is this some kind of joke? Taking us out of our houses just to what?" Simon said "So the gang could be united again? As if we –"

In the middle of Simons little speech a portal opened and a woman got out of it. She had pink skin, caramel-brown hair and light brown eyes with a sharp face. When she looked to every face in the room she opened a smile and rested her gaze on Magnus face who was frowing as much as Alec as he looked at the woman that was standing in the middle of the room.

"Alessandra.. ? What are you doing here?" Magnus raised his eyebrow and stood up as he recognized the pink woman that had just got here.

"Magnus, thank god you haven't moved out. It would be a big problem if I were to have to look for you new place" Alessandra opened a little smile but as her eyes rested on Jace's face she started to look serious "I need your help shadowhunters. It is urgent and we don't have much time to explanation. We have to move fast"

"What do you need us for?" Jace was analyzing these woman that apparently had summoned these reunion

"We need to save a girl. It is really important that she is safe and sound and with you guys. That is the reason that I brought her to New York" Alessandra said

"If you brought her to New York, why isn't she with you?" Simon eyes narrowed as he suspiciously looked at the woman

"Again, it is a long story. I promise I will explain everything after we save her. Please" Alessandra eyes widened as she asked us this favour. "She is in danger… The whole world is in danger"

"What? Just because one girl is in danger the whole world is in danger too?" Isabelle said clearly not trusting the pink woman

"Yes, precisely! Please, we don't have time!" At the end of her sentence her voice was a octave higher "Magnus, tell them you trust me so they can trust me too"

Magnus eyes narrowed as he read Alessandra's expression after a few seconds he looked at everyone else "I trust her. Go help her and then come back here. Then she will explain everything to us"

"Thank you!"

The woman said opening a little smile that disappeared as fast as it came, she signed with her hand for us to follow and went inside the portal as sure that we were going to follow as she was pink. Jace were the first one to go after her then Clary followed by Simon and Isabelle, Alec stayed behind since he still had to change and did not want to delay the others. When they arrived at the place Clary knew where they were, they were at the Pandemonium Club and all she could think was why everything happened there. She saw Jace head to the back following Alessandra, she didn't even stop to think twice she dashed after the two of them feeling that Simon and Isabelle were right behind her.

They all gathered in front of the door that eight years ago Clary found Jace, Alec and Isabelle together killing a demon, the first demon she ever saw. When Alessandra saw that we all were there she opened the door without a second to waste, everyone had their seraph blade on their grasp ready for the battle as they saw the short girl, as short as Clary, with black short curly hair being hugged by a blond woman as beautiful as evil she was.
