Disclamer: I own nothing but this plot and my own characters (soon to arrive). The Mortal Instruments belong to the lovely miss Cassie Clare
The bottle spun on the table rapidly. The tension built up until finally, the bottle slowed and pointed towards Alec. He looked up and waited. "So, what will it be?" asked Jace, with a mischievous glint in his eye. "Truth...Or Dare?"
"Dare." replied Alec.
"Pleasure." Jace answered with a smirk. He knew that Alec only had one weakness, and it was his boyfriend. Of course it didn't bother Jace or Isabelle, his sister, but it would bother his parents. They didn't know he 'played for the other team'. "Why don't you send a fire message to Mayrse and Robert and tell them about Magnus and exactly how you two know each other?"
Alec stared at Jace in shock. Today was the last day of training before Mayrse, Robert, Max came back from Idris and everyone had decided to go to Taki's for dinner and then some late night demon hunting at the beach when Isabelle found an old bottle, and decided to indulge in some mundane games. Alec had troubles admitting that he was gay and his parents would never know if it were up to him, but he couldn't tell them like this. Not now, not ever.
"No, Jace. You know I can't do that." said Alec with a tone of finality in his voice with a hint of pleading.
"Excuse me?" Jace replied.
"Jace, this isn't fair for Alec, don't." said Clary, pleading with Jace.
"A dare is a dare. If he can face a du'sien demon bare handed, this should be child's play."
"I. Said. No." Alec enunciated each and every word so Jace would get him. Anger flared up in his stunning blue eyes and he grabbed the bottle, got up and hurled it towards the water. It got pretty far considering all the strength he had from shadow hunter training but not far enough, as to get sent into the sea.
"What was that for?" screamed Jace. His golden eyes showing a spark of something Alec couldn't quite put his finger on.
"You threw it, so you're going to get it." Said Isabelle, absentmindedly fiddling with her a strand of her charcoal hair.
Alec trudged over to the shoreline, and started searching for the bottle. "It has to be here…" he trailed off as his highly trained eyes spotted the bottle. He picked it up without really caring and strode over to where the group was. Isabelle, chatting away with Clary, and Jace fiddling with Clary's hair. It looked like fire blazing with all the shadows the campfire was casting on her. Alec had insisted on just using a witchlight stone but Isabelle insisted on going full mundane.
"Here, take the bottle." He threw it in Jace's face fully expecting him to catch it with his amazing reflexes but Jace looked like he just saw a greater demon and tensed. Clary saw his reaction and caught the bottle before it hit Jace. She too got the same puzzled look as Jace and said "Hey…Alec? This isn't our bottle" She looked up and said "There's some sort of note inside." Alec then noticed the filmy white layer rolled up inside the bottle which he just assumed to be sand gotten inside.
Isabelle grabbed the bottle and yanked the cork off and slid out the paper. She opened the paper and read the note inside. "Someone get Magnus. We're going to need him."
Omg so atleast I got that out, I've been meaning to write a fanfic but I've been having a serious case of writer's block. Sorry if the characters haven't evolved too much, I'm getting around to that, writer's block, remember?
Anyways, should I continue? R&R Please be nice, this is my first fanfic.
