Jonathan froze. How could she possibly know about this? What should he do? He couldn't deny the existence of Shadowhunters, because she obviously knew about them, nor he could say he's not a Shadowhunter, because if this girl opens her mouth to anyone in the clave and say that Jonathan Morgenstern was alive and well he was definitely screwed. He caught himself scanning her for marks.

- I'm not one of you, if that's what you're thinking… - She said as they started walking. She turned back to the boys making sure they were O.K. One of them had a cell phone in his hand. Probably calling his mom… The thought would've made her laugh if it wasn't for the tense expression on Jonathan's face. - I just have a friend who's a Shadowhunter too, we've known each other since forever, so he thought it would be okay to tell me…

- I see… - the blonde boy replied, clearly looking relieved - How long do you know about us?

- Since I was too small to remember. My mom worked on his institute in Paris. She didn't want me to know much, thought it was dangerous, but then I made friends with him and he told me everything - a smile grew on her face, and her eyes became dreamy, clearly full of memories - I was even trained as a Shadowhunter a bit. I mean, as much as a person can have Shadowhunter training without the marks.

- Oh - He said, finally understanding it. She was with her parents here, that must mean she no longer has any contact with the shadowhunters from the institute. They started walking towards a small green park.

Out of nowhere, Jonathan starts to laugh.

-What? What's so funny? - She asked smiling.

- It's just that I really can't picture you fighting Demons or anything… - he laughed - Not unless you stalk them and wake them up early until they kill themselves.

-Stop it! - She said hitting him slightly on she shoulder, and began to laugh along with him - I can kick you're angel blooded ass, Shadowhunter. - She said taking him by surprise by tickling his stomach until he fell down.

- You'll pay for that mundane! - He said, getting up. She screamed and ran away, laughing, but in a blink of an eye he was right in front of her.

-How did you…? - She was about to ask when she was knocked down, falling on the ground.

-Ouch! My head - The mundane furred her brows looking in pain.

-Are you all right? - He extended his hand to her looking worried. She grabbed him and pulled him to the ground with her. The both couldn't stop laughing for a while.

- You know… - She said looking to the sky- I've lived in an institute of one of the biggest and most famous cities in the world, so I can say for sure, that I've seen a lot of Shadowhunters and they are faster and stronger than most people, but you… - she shook her head - It's just not normal…

- Well, you're not very normal either - he smiled, dodging the subject - Hey, I gotta go - he got up - talk to you later ok?

Sapphire smiled at him but didn't get up. She just lied there, looking at the sky for a moment.

...

Valentine was already home when he got there. His father wore an expression that would frighten to death most people,even him,if that were some days ago. Now, Jonathan just stared back at him,never breaking the eye contact.

-Where were you?- Valentine asked in a cold voice.

-Out.

-You ungreatefull little bastard, I try hard to work on your terrible shadowhunter skills and that's how you pay me back? By going out when you should be training? - That's the thing about Valentine. He managed to raise his voice and still remain as cold and deadly as ever.

-I beat you that day...And you call my skills terrible? - he gave a sarcastic smile - You are a terrible liar father.

-Don't fool yourself little boy - Valentine was not as fast or as strong as he was, but he definetly was more a quick movement, he grabbed his demon ironed sword. Jonathan dodged the attacks, but Valentine knew all his patterns and skillfully knocked him down, cutting his chest. Black blood came out of the new wounds and the boy screamed with pain. - You still need your training.

For his father's surprise he started laughing,a cold laughter,nothing similar to the one he had shared with Sapphire - No. You need me.- Valentine looked at him, surprised - I am the biggest weapon you have in your disposal right now. That is,until you can find your precious mortal instruments.- He slowly god up, a dark psychotic smile on his lips. valentine tryed to hit him again but this time he was prepared and dodged all of them - Don't worry...I'll finish my training. But right now...I wanna have my fun.

And in less of a second, he was gone.

...

Jonathan found himself walking towards Sapphire's house. He would come home eventually but he needed to be away from his life, and mainly away from Valentine for a while. He knocked on the door, hoping to see her opening the door and smiling to him, in the way that made him involuntarily smile along with her. But it wasn't her who opened the door.

A boy was standing right behind him. He was about his age, and they both even looked a bit alike. Only, that boy had midnight dark hair and a happy smile on his face that would never cross Jonathan's.

- How may I help you? - The boy asked in a french accent.

- Is Sapphire home?

- Yeah, she is - he looked to Jonathan, his eyes immediatly going to the cut on his shirt and the open wound that was visible there - You must be Saph's new shadowhunter friend...Jonathan, right?

Saph, he said. The intonation on his voice and the sparkle on his eyes when he said her name left no doubts he had feelings for her. And Jonathan already hated him for that. It seemed that the dark haired didn't him either. Fair enough.

- And you must be her french BFF - he gave a sarcastic smile.

- Yes, I am the closest person to her... And yet I heard a lot about you Jonathan, and your impressive speed and strengh that surpassed any shadowhunter she knows,I've gotta say that sonds truly... -he gave a cold smile - Fascinating. - The way he talked about Jonathan's abilities definetly wasn't a compliment. It was a threat.

-She said that?- The blonde's voice was loaded with sarcasm - Weird. She didn't even get to see my best moves yet - He said, giving him a malicious smile.

- Hey, the popcorn is ready!I didn't find the buttered one so... - A girly voice broke the tension in the room - Jonathan, heey! - her eyes sparkled with the sight of him. Jonathan smiled to himself. - So...- She looked from a boy to another - Hmm, this is Jonathan, and Jonathan this is... - The dark haired shadowhunter interrupted her.

-Sebastian - he smiled extanding his hand - Sebastian Verlac.
