Three hours later Isabelle and Jess emerged from 'the makeup area' and both looked amazing. Izzy was wearing her typical sassy/demon hunt floor length white dress and eight inch boots. As usual she had her golden whip coiled around her arm. Jess wore exactly the same but she had a black dress on, seven inch heels and a seraph blade tucked inside her dress.
I wore a suit as did Alec and Simon who wasn't exactly thrilled to be left outside. I chuckled when I visualised Simon outside waiting for all of us to hurry up and get a move on. Like a dog waiting outside for its masters. The irony. Simon was almost like our pet leech that was Isabelle's boyfriend infact Simon was our pet leech, he always has been since Clary first brought him into the Institute, always loyal yet always a outsider even when he knew the truth and could see it.
Isabelle tapped my arm, "Earth to Jace. Jace to Earth. Dude are you okay?" Concern was clear on her face and it made me want to smirk. Then we set off.
When we got there we didn't bother with glamour, we had to wait like mundies in the five mile long line. We cheated and got through the line. We told almost every person except ten that we were V.I.P's that were due to perform as millennium link Simon's band. Typical mundies.
The bouncer also believed us. So we waltzed in and headed straight for the bar. The bar maid was a vampire. "Oh crap... What do you want to order?"
She looked at me her tawny eyes just about missing my gaze, "I'll have a blue WKD please, Simon are you having the same?" Simon who had been scanning the club for demonic activity stopped short.
"Yeah I'll have mine spiked though, if you know what I mean Katie." He hissed at her.
"Sure thing Daylighter." She bowed her head before looking at Jessica, Maia, Magnus, Alec, Aline, and Izzy.
"I'll have my usual please." Said Magnus who was looking extremely sparkly.
"I'll have a glass of blue trakiom then, all drinks on me." Said Izzy, "Do you want what I'm getting girls?"
The murmured their yeses and pleases and then Alec spoke up, "In that case I'll have Black Dragonightic, make it fresh." I seen Isabelle's eyes cloud over and I nudged a guy next to me.
"You see that girl?" The guy nodded, "Well she's getting EVERYONE drinks on the house, want one?" The boy looked at me warily before nodding. I snickered, "Yeah Will other here wants on to! Same as Si!"
I sipped my WKD and chuckled as I seen Isabelle struggling to pay so I put a twenty in on top of the fine. "Thanks Bro." Izzy said before flouncing over to Simon. I began to dance and scan for demons and Jessica-
Where was that girl? Probably raving to some crap song or trying to seduce a demon. Then I seen my target. A female demon sauntered toward me, totally unaware of the Shadowhunters that were monitoring its every move.
"Hey, enjoying yourself are we?" It said.
"Yeah but I know where my fun lies, I'm sure you do to." I flirted, "Come to the storeroom, our fun lies there." Then I glanced at Alec as to tell him "Give it fifteen seconds after we cross the threshold then come in and help me kill it." He nodded once and continued dancing in Alec fashion.
I sauntered toward the storeroom, the demon on my heels all the way. When we got there I let my leather jacket expose a bit of my neck which was inked with marks. The demon thought they were tattoos. It came up to me and began to feel up the back of my shirt, I waited for the right moment and grabbed the beast.
"A few little hints." I tied the beast with blessed chains to a pillar. "One. You cannot seduce people full stop." I drew my seraph blade, "2. Don't seduce me." I moved the blade to just about its heart, "3. You're going to die now, so got any final words?"
"Lilith is back Jace Wayland." More Lilith crap? I stabbed it and it folded up neatly and went to its home dimension.
I drummed fingers against the wall and waited for Izzy and Alec to dash in brandishing weapons. I waited about five minutes and knew then something was wrong. I walked out and found the club empty. "Hello?" I called in panic.
"Hello indeed Jonathan Wayland, it's been year's has it not?" Lilith walked out from behind me and I felt my hand curl around a seraph blade. "Don't bother its plastic." She smirked mockingly at me and I drawn it from my belt. It was indeed plastic.
"What do you what Lilith?" I demanded in fury.
"It's not a what Jonathan, it is a who." My thoughts were turned to my family. "Who do you care about most in the world Jonathan? The person who you would devote your life to train." Jessica.
"No!" I whispered, "She is only a child, I won't harm her-" I was cut off by Lilith.
"You sworn on a oath that you would not hurt the redhead didn't you? Oh boy you did. You're the reason she's dead." She snickered and I had to restrain myself to not lung at her. "Dmitry, bring the child in."
This man called Dmitry dragged a small figure over to Lilith, "Dad..." Jessica's eye's were pleading but also fearless and they were also determined.
I frowned and Lilith snickered, "You're wondering why your here aren't you?" I nodded eager to leave the hell hole, "The rebirth of my mark needs to be bore upon you." Uh oh, I knew what was coming next, "take your shirt off so I can draw the mark."
Jess snorted in disgust as Lilith began the sketch the devils mark on me.
