Dawn of the Shadow Warlocks – Part 2

By Reed West

Author's Note: I'm very sorry about the long wait for the next chapter. I have been busy with my original story, and schoolwork. I hope you enjoy the next chapter even though it's a little short

"What happened to the Institute? OH, BY THE ANGEL!" yelled Jace rushing toward the front of the building, trying to get inside. Indeed, the stony cobbles that had build up the walls were knocked down and broken out of place; gray dust coated the insides and the furniture ripped and destroyed. Clary followed Jace, with Alec and Isabelle behind them.

"Jace, don't panic," Clary said trying to calm him down. Alec looked around the ruins and noticed that there was no dust from the falling stones floating in the air, and it looked like it had been like that for a while. And suddenly, this new girl claiming to be a Lightwood shows up, and takes them to see their home in this state. This whole situation is unexplainable, Alec thought.

"Okay, look, whoever you are, what happened here?" Isabelle sauntered over to the girl. Jade blinked at her, with arms crossed over her chest.

"Attacked by demons," Jade said coolly, while stepping over the rubble and walking into the ruin.

"Wait, the Institute was attacked by demons?" Alec shouted after her. Jade turned around, giving him a look that he had trouble understanding. It looked like she was confused.

"I thought you knew- wait…you are not in the right time," Jade mumbled to herself.

"Stop mumbling and answer me, please," Alec demanded. Jade looked up and stared in a mix of fear and confusion. Alec walked over to her.

"I'm not sure if I should," Jade said, with an arched eyebrow, very much reminding him of Isabelle.

"What is going on here?" yelled Jace from behind them. Clary looked up, and Isabelle held her whip in her hand. There was silence.

"The Institute was attacked by demons a few weeks back, during a battle with the Shadowhunters. They are being lead by an unknown leader, called the Demon-Tamer. He is trying to destroy Shadowhunters and half-breeds," Jade spoke darkly, "And he attacked all the Institutes, including this one."

"I've never heard of this guy," Jace said, eyes full of annoyance.

"That's because where you're from, this hasn't happened yet," Jade said.

"What?"

"Welcome to the future," she sighed.
