They arrived at the Institute just in time for Red to pass out on marble tiles. The oh so heroic slayer- I mean hunter- dropped to his knees beside her, examining her body until he found the wound. He ripped off her sleeve to expose a "demon bite" he exclaimed ruefully as Alec stormed down the hallway. "What the hell is this?" His words fell on deaf ears. "This is the part where you start ripping off pieces of your shirt to bind my wounds" The small girl stammered out of trembling lips. The blonde smiled and was about to spew a witty retort when he felt his stele slipping from his fingers. "Honestly Johnny, I'm just going to have to hang around and make sure she doesn't die" The leather clad woman was now dressed in black leather pants with her thigh high boots and a black corset covering a crème dress shirt with bellowing sleeves. She grabbed the young girl's wrist, ignoring the male holding her and the other male wondering who the hell all these people were, and used the stele to draw a rune over the bite. "How often do you change?!" Jace yelled until the young girl screamed and then passed out. Ivory nonchalantly tossed the stele to the blonde hunter and stood, back to him. "Nice to see you again, Iceman. I apologise for the intrusion, your hunter is giving me a deal of trouble with my mundane" "What the hell kind of rune is this?!" Blondie shook the unconscious girl's arm at her "And how did you get in here, this is hallowed ground!" She chuckled "Darling, that is my rune. It will fix just about anything that ails ya and shows my claim on her, any demon that sees that won't come within 10 feet of her. And there isn't a place in this world I can't go." She winked at Alec, the stoic younger man had no idea why. "Your claim!? Why the hell did it hurt her so much?" "Well no-one else has claimed her have they? And you sure as hell can't keep tabs on her. And all the worthwhile runes are" "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!" Alec finally got a word in. "Oh forgive me, Iceman." She bowed low at the raven haired man "I am Ivory, the magnificent." "More importantly, WHAT are you?" "Well, that is an interesting question; shall we get my little Red to a more comfortable spot to sleep before we embark on this journey?" She picked up the young girl with ease, striding off in the direction Alec had come from, leaving the blonde on the floor staring at his friend. "What the hell have you gotten us into this time, Jace?"
When they arrived at the infirmary the leather woman was sitting on one of the beds, the young redhead lying peacefully in her lap, a fond hand stroking her head. It certainly looked possessive. "Please gentlemen, gather round and I shall share with you my story" She grinned with piercing teeth exposed. She could see their fear and anger. Hesitancy. They both sat side by side on the opposite bed as she idly twirled a piece of the young girl's hair around her finger. "Now you asked, very eloquently I must add, 'what' I am. Well I am what you would call an 'other' but really that's so demeaning. I am technically half demon, half shadow hunter but really I am a new breed. My mother met a bad end, she was raped by a demon and died given birth through a vampire bite. Oh yes, not very pretty. I was raised by wolves, or a werewolf to be precise. I have certain abilities that kid's like you have never seen." She licked her lips at the rage flash in both of their eyes "Such as the ability to create runes and use demon magic for my own uses. Any questions so far?" Blondie was about to yell but was cut off by Iceman "Why do you call me Iceman? How do you know Jace's real name? How did you get in here? And who is the girl?" She let out a loud bellowing laugh "A curious one hmm? Well, because your ice blue eyes show me your cold heart. Ice, ice baby. I have access to information about you all that you didn't know existed outside of your own mind so naturally I know your names. Plus, I am a seer, I can tell your most intimate secrets just by looking in your eyes" She looked them both in the eyes in turn, just for effect. "And I told you there was no-where I can't go dear, ask your friend." Jace looked at him with a pissed off look "She has some sort of teleporting, walk through walls ability" "And the girl is a mundane, well not technically. She can see us but doesn't know why. She doesn't know she has ties to this world" Alec narrowed his eyes "What are her ties?.." She smirked and tapped her nose "Now don't get greedy, my dear Iceman. You're awful quiet little Johnny?" "What is that rune on your tongue?.." She grinned widely. "Now that is an interesting tale. Look sharp, its Medusa" She slipped, chuckling all the while, through the bed and floor, leaving the small red head sleeping peacefully. Both boys whipped around to see Isabelle stride through the doorway. Jace instantly burst into a fit of laughter. "What the hell is going on here?!"
