Camille hummed cheerfully as she sorted through the newest collection of coins; just giving a few words of information had set her up nicely for a good long while. Camille stiffened at the touch of steel at her neck once more and she swallowed down an annoyed sigh.
"I already told you everything I know about Bane's new boy toy." Camille didn't bother to hide her annoyance this time.
"To the Circle you may have, but not to me you haven't." A female voice snarked and Camille risked a look to see a fair skinned woman with flaming red hair.
"I'm not telling you anything girly." Camille scoffed and the redhead laughed aloud as she sheathed her sword at her waist.
"Oh I know you won't talk to me, but I think you will talk to them." She smirked as the door swung open and a beautiful female with long black hair sauntered into the room, flanked by a taller male with floppy blond hair.
"I am Captain Isabelle Lightwood of the Raziel and I do believe you have some information about my brother." Isabelle rested her hand on her sword, a dangerous smile on her lips as she tipped her hat up to look at Camille.
"Brother huh? Well, you may want to hurry, the Morning Star will catch the Prince soon enough." Camille felt a sweat drop run down her cheek as the blond unsheathed two swords, a dark look in his eyes but stood down when Isabelle raised her arm.
"Tell us where they are headed and maybe I'll keep my first mate and brother from taking yours." Isabelle snarled and Camille felt a flash of fear go through her body but she opened her mouth and started to talk.
~~The Morning Star~~
"We are so close to our goal Jonathan, can't you see it now?" Valentine beamed at his blond son who was leaning on the railing overlooking the rest of the large ship.
"I can see it, Father, finally our quest will be fulfilled and everything will fall into place." Jonathan agreed, eyes trained on the horizon, waiting for the Prince to appear.
"Indeed it will, Jonathan my son. Soon the Lightwood boy will be in our grasps and then after we drain him of his blood our wish will be granted." Valentine laughed and Jonathan kept quiet as he watched his Father fall deeper into the madness and obsession that had been planted all those years ago when he first heard the tale.
"I will retire to my chambers and make sure everything is prepared for the ritual Father." Jonathan kept his wince hidden when Valentine placed a hand firmly on his shoulder in what used to be a fatherly gesture.
"Remember my son, you are whom I am are doing this for. So the world will be ours and only ours." Valentine said firmly and Jonathan couldn't help but nod before he slipped away to enter his chambers. He made sure his door was firmly locked before he pulled a key from around his neck to show an old-fashioned key. Jonathan inserted the key into a lock at the back of his wardrobe and with a click, the back swung apart to show parchments tacked to the wood.
"Father means well but he has no clue about the truth of what is truly hidden in the caverns and why Alexander Lightwood's blood is so important. Do not worry Mother, soon I will bring you back to us, to me I swear it." Jonathan bowed his head as he caressed the edges of a frayed black and white photo of a beautiful woman whom his heart ached for since the day she passed.
"Jonathan! We have the Prince within our sights, the Captain has ordered all hands on deck!" A voice called out and Jonathan locked the secret door closed and headed out to meet his future.
~~Raziel~~
"That bitch better have told us the truth or I will let you take her head," Izzy muttered to Jace as she paced her Captain's cabins, her brother lounging at the table with his feet up on the surface eating an apple.
"I still say you should have let me take her out," Jace grumbled, annoyed they had missed Alec by mere hours!
"So bloodthirsty brother." Izzy teased as she took her hat off and tossed it onto the back of a nearby chair before flopping down onto it dramatically.
"Can you blame me? We missed him by THIS much Iz! We were so close!" Jace slammed his dagger into the surface of the table, his anger clear and Izzy sighed as she was feeling the same anger and sadness Jace was feeling.
"I know Jace, we are right on their tails and we will get to him before the Circle does." Izzy reached over and laced her brother's fingers together with hers for comfort. Jace squeezed her hand tightly in silent support.
"He is never going to believe us when we tell him how we got this ship and you became Captain." Jace snickered and Izzy full out laughed.
"How were we to know that your secret girlfriend's adoptive father was a pirate Captain back in his youth?" Izzy teased and Jace blushed at the reminder of Clary who was above on board, easily ordering the crew around like she was born to it.
"I'm just grateful that Luke let us take his ship and some of his old crew to find Alec." Izzy was shocked to find out everything about Luke and Clary but more so when Jace named her Captain instead of taking the role for himself, stating he was first mate material.
"Luke likes Alec more than most people so that helped… I hope that Bane isn't hurting Alec, if I find one scratch on him so help me I will run Bane through with my sword." Izzy growled as she remembered the way Bane looked at her brother and held him close like he was a spoil of war.
"I'll help you if he dared to touch Alec without Alec's permission," Jace promised, eyes dark.
"We will get to him before Valentine does Jace, we will," Izzy swore after all the Raziel was the only ship that could match the Prince in speed while on water.
"We will." Jace agreed.
