When I change into black, denim shorts, a grey designer tank top, and a black leather jacket, I hear a sound down stairs, and rush to see what's wrong.
Jace comes into the institute, with a weak, and dirty Clary, followed by the Mundie; Simon. "What happened?" I asked Jace, going to help Clary get the infirmary. "I'll tell you later. Go get Hodge." I went and got Hodge, and went down to the infirmary, where a passed out Clary and all of my siblings were.
"What happened?" I asked again. "Someone trashed her place, and took her mother. Then there was a demon attack, but Clary shoved my sensor in the demons throat." A sensor? That's a new one. "But not before getting bit." Jace finished. "Shoved a sensor down its throat? Never heard that one before." I commented.
That night when everyone was going to bed, Isabelle and I decided to stay up, and go demon hunting.
While we were about to go down the stairs, we were stopped by the Mundie. "What do you want?" He turned around, noticing that he was blocking our way. He just stared, looking at me, as his eyes swept down my body, I tried to sound polite. "Is there something you needed?" I said, unlike Isabelle, who never tries to be polite, said, "Stop checking my sister out. We need to get by, and your big, head is blocking our way." I gave Simon an apologetic look when Isabelle shoves him out of the way.
"He's totally into you." I say to Izzy when we're around the corner. "I know, Paris, everyone's into me! You should know that by now." I rolled my eyes.
I then hear an unnatural noise coming from the abandoned house in front of us. I recognize this sound as a ravenor demon.
I take out my 2 seraph blades, and my stele and start to draw awareness, angelic, courage in combat, deflect/block, flexibility, heightened speed, powers, stamina, stealth, strength, and technique runes down my arm. When I am finish, the two of us walk into the house but I am surprised to already see someone in there.
The Ravenor demon folds itself up and disappeared leaving a man, in shadowhunter gear "Who are you people?" he asks us. He is surprisingly handsome. He looks to be my age, maybe a year older, and has straight, brown hair, stopping below his ears, dark, mysterious green eyes, and a muscular, 6 foot 4 inch body. He's holding a knife in his right hand, and has countless runes running up his muscly, tan arms. Before I can answer his question, another demon comes out and starts to attack me. Good thing I wore an awareness rune.
I quickly jumped in the air, doing a flawless back flip, held up my seraph blade and did a sharp throw Well I guess towards the demon, hitting it in the eye. I landed on my feet, and took out a sword instead, and ducked before the demon hit me on the head. I could tell that the demon was trying to knock me out by hitting my head, so calculating the demon's next move, by swaying my head to the left, I quickly jumped back to the right, kicked the demon from behind and stabbing it in the back. The demon folds up, and disappears.
"Who are you?" I asked to boy. But he just stares at me, finally realizing that I asked him something, "I'm Noah Goldstark, where'd you learn to fight like that?" I rolled my eyes at his question. "I'm Paris Nightshade, and this is Isabelle Lightwood." Noah looks at Isabelle, and unlike most guys, seems to not be paralyzed by her beauty. "Where are you from?" I ask him. His face hardens. "I'm from Connecticut, my parents were killed by demons when I was ten and I've been on my own since then." I am shocked. "Well then, Noah. We will bring you to the institute that we live at, and you can probably stay there." I said, and walked out the door, with them following behind me. Isabelle catches up to me and leans down and whispers, "He's into you." In my ear. "Shutup" I whisper back.
Back at the institute, I am surprised to see Jace still wide awake, in the infirmary, staring at Clary, just like he was an hour ago. Gosh, the kid's falling hard. "Take me to Hodge." I told Church. Jace, still not lifting his eyes off Clary, doesn't seem to hear us coming in.
Church led us to the library. "Hodge! We found someone." I shouted. "Hasn't anyone told you to be quiet while in a library?" asked Noah. I just give him my most charming smile, "Not that I know of."
After what seems like hours of waiting, Noah comes out of the library after talking to Hodge. "He said I could stay here, in room 76." Noah said to me. "Wow, I'm room 77. We'll be right across the hall from each other." I stated.
When I tried to go to bed, my brain just wouldn't shut down. I had so many things floating around in my head. I think about Clary, and her mundane friend Simon. I think about Jace, and how weird he acts around Clary. I think about Valentine, and how just about every demon I kill (which is a big amount) claims that he is alive. Then my mind thinks of my brother. No one knows this; I have/had a brother. When we were being sent to the New York institute, from Idris, my brother, Jake, whose one year older than me, has the exact same features as me, was thinking of a different place when he went through the portal, and we never knew where. I have searched the entire USA looking for him, not knowing if he is alive or not.
I heard a knock on my door. Who dare disturbs me from my depressing thoughts?
"Come in." I say with a soft voice. The door opens, and Noah comes in. "I can't sleep, and I am assuming, by what Hodge told me, that you can't either." He's so smart. Whoa, where did that come from? "Well you assumed correct." I sat up and went to the couch on the other side of my room, then gestured him down.
