Love and Loss
Chapter 1
"Jacob-" said his father "This is Griffin. You remember Griffin right? Isabelle and Simon's son?" his father finished, giving him a serious look. Wow dad. Jacob thought. I know his family was murdered what does he think I'll say?
"Hey man! Wow it's been so long! I haven't seen you in forever! I'm so sorry. If there is anything you need just tell me" Jacob offered. After seeing Jacob's got this he relaxed.
"Thanks man I appreciate it. Anyways we need to catch up your right it's been so long." Griffin said pretty enthusiastically under the circumstances.
"All right boys we will all catch up tonight at dinner, for now Griffin, Jacob will show you to your first class and my daughter will escort you through the rest considering you have the same schedule".
Griffin could remember learning about Jacobs's dad Jace, him and his now wife Clary had saved the world countless times. Along with his mother Isabelle and father Simon, Uncles Alec and Magnus, Mia and Jordan, and many, many others. He also heard rumors about Clary and Jace's daughter Sara, who has been known to be the best shadow hunter any world has ever seen. Even better than her father, and possessing the power to both create runes like her mother and everything her father has, both physical and mental powers.
"I met a demon once" Griffin starts "He said he met your sister, said she had hair that turns to liquid gold and her tattoos light up when she kills too".
"My sister's…. interesting…" was all Jacob said before he opened big wooden doors and walked through them, motioning Griffin to follow.
Griffin walked through the double doors and followed Jacob to a desk with what griffin thinks would have the professor sitting behind and he was right. Jacob was talking to the professor and Griffin got distracted looking for who he would think would be Sara Herondale. He saw girls with blonde hair and brown eyes, girls with brown hair and blue eyes, he saw a girl sitting in the middle of the room with blonde hair and green eyes. She had her head down and looked nervous. Griffin thought that was Sara but then realized that Sara had golden hair and golden tattoos. This girl did not. Right when he was about to give up then he heard the doors open. Right there in the doorway was Sara Herondale, with her golden tattoos crawling up her body and her golden hair flowing down to the top of her hips. Her head slowly peered up and her eyelids fluttered open, her bright green eyes locking straight with his.
So, that's Isabelle's and Simon's son. Figures. Same ink black hair as Isabelle and same beautiful blue eyes as his uncle Alec. Although he had about the resemblance as a fish to Simon, he must have some resemblance she thought. She stood in the doorway looking Griffin up and down watch him gauche over her like all men did, no matter how old. He was staring at her so intense like he was trying to remember every detail about her. She let out a little laugh.
Soon enough class started and Sara took her seat across the room from Griffin and She had to admit there was something intriguing about him.
"So, how was your day at school little sister?" Jacob asked sarcastically.
"It was alright, there is that new guy who is staying with us that came, that was the only considerably interesting thing that happened today" Sara answered with slightly less enthusiasm.
"He seems nice, quite a looker too if you know what I mean" Seth teased Sara.
"Oh please Seth, you know Sara doesn't have enough feelings to love anyone" Sara's brother Jacob joined the teasing
Sara felt very upset. This was a very sensitive topic with her. She never even considered loving another person after hunter considering what happened.
"I wasn't saying she loves him, I'm just saying she thinks he's hot"
Sara blushed because she indeed did think he was hot.
"Come on guys stop your being rude, we all know this kind of stuff is kind of sensitive for Sara and you should respect that" Kaden added sticking up for Sara.
"Thanks Kaden but I'm fine" for once Sara really did think she was fine. Hmm weird, she thought to herself. "Anyways where is this Vampire hideout supposed to be?"
"I wouldn't really call it a hide out. It's more like a feeding location" Gabe said correcting Sara. "And its room 228" he finished.
"Ahh here it is" Sara uttered.
Soon enough Sara was breaking down the door and their little group paraded in. "Belch" Sara could smell the rotting bodies and dried blood. "Motels never smell nice". Sara looked around for any life of a vampire still there. She saw nothing.
"Spread out" Sara said as she looked under the bed.
"Clear here" said Sam.
"Here too" then Gabe
"Nothing in the bathroom" answered Kaden.
"Nothing he- AHHH" then nothing. Sara could hear Jacobs's ear crackling scream ringing through her ears. She quickly turned around to see Jacob being dragged away by a vampire. Sara ran straight toward the thing and jumped on it with her bare hands, clutching its throat, digging into it with her finger nails. It released Jacob, and Sara poured liquid silver down the things throat and it quickly disintegrating to dust falling through her hands.
"Let's head home" was all Sara said before getting up and walking out the door of the old steamy apartment.
