Soulmate & Wingfic
Magnus/Alec
Disclaimer: the fabulous work belongs to Cassandra Clare, thank you for creating the Shadow world.
Summary: Alec's wings were colored black, but he heard a rumor that when you have a soulmate, the wings turn to gold. Alec believed that he was tainted, since his siblings were pure and found the one that they loved, except for him.
The Bane Chronicles added to the fandoms... I highly rec you to read the book, it's so good.
There's connection to the story, somehow. *Evil Grin*

Jace looked up, he didn't see anything.
"Where? There's nothing there." Jace looked at the same way his boyfriend was looking but saw nothing there.
The fight ended soon after, with all the demons fleeing or dead.
"Wait, who is this Batman figure you are talking about?" Izzy asked.
"I'll take care of explaining it later sweetie; I think it's time to introduce you to some movies." Clary replied, and then she added after some thought, "Maybe we should watch the movies together, like a double date or something."
"I love that idea, maybe we can do that later. Right now, we go and meet the High Warlock and then we'll decide." Jace agreed with her.
As they walked to the apartment complex where the warlock was living, they never noticed someone coming back to the fight scene behind them, picking up used arrows to refill his quiver and then leaving.
Once they reached the apartment Jace reached a hand to knock on the High Warlock's door. Before his hand touched wood, the door swung open soundlessly.
"Three shadowhunters and one Vampire enter a loft, that sound like a beginning of a joke, I'm Magnus Bane, so what I can do to help you?" Magnus smiled as the two couples stepped inside.
"Nice apartment you have here," Clary told him as she noticed the rich décor. The walls colored gold and black with the many pieces of art, from the decorated furniture to the pictures hanging around, "I love your style, Magnus Bane." Izzy added.
"So, I ask again, how I can help you?"
"Well, we thought to ask if you noticed of something that happens at night." Izzy answered.
"What do you mean? There's nothing going on at night!" Magnus exclaimed dramatically and took a sip from the cocktail that he has in his hand.
"No attacks, nothing, that's why we came, we wanted to know if you know something about it, but apparently you don't." Jace mumbled in frustration.
The parabatai rune was still there, and Jace wished that his brother will stop blocking him.
Magnus noticed the trail of Jace's fingers as it moved to a rune that he knew once.
"What's wrong with you?" Magnus asked and then he elaborated, "Is it something about your parabatai?"
"How do you even know about it?" Jace asked.
"I lived a really long life, I learned a thing or two doing it." Magnus said amusingly. "So, is it?" he asked.
"Yes, but I don't know where he is, I want to reach him, but all I get are blank walls." Jace said.
"Where is your parabatai, then?"
"I don't know, I don't know, and it is killing me," Jace replied as he sighed heavily before he added, "My parents kicked him out the institute a month ago, and we can't find him."
"Wait, what is your last name, shadowhunters?"
"Me and Jace are Lightwood, but before my parents adopted him, he went by the name of Wayland, Clary is Fairchild and his boyfriend is Simon Lewis." Izzy replied.
"Lightwood, so your parents are Maryse and Robert?" Magnus asked in disgust.
"You know them?" Clary asked.
"I have had dealings with them in the past, they are not my favorite people at all." Magnus explained.
"Why did they kick your brother out in the first place? And what is your brother name?" Magnus asked as he sat on the sofa, the drink has disappeared into thin air, and his cat came to him, seeking attention.
"Our brother name is Alec Lightwood, and for all we know, he was kicked because his wings were tainted, and he didn't find his soulmate." Izzy responded.
"And you couldn't track him?"
"No, like I said, he is blocking me, and I can't tell if he is hurting."
Alec was watching them from the roof of the adjoining building. He longed to see them, to be with them, but couldn't take the risk, the threats from his parents were still fresh in his mind, and he didn't want to test their resolve. He knew his parent and knew they will truly act on them.
At least he could use his Nyx rune which gives him night vision, and so he could see his friends and family, even if he had to do it from a far.
As the effects of the rune were reaching their end he reluctantly pulled his eyes away from his siblings and looked over the streets, searching for any demons activity. He did not wish for them to get hurt, even if he knew that they knew how to fight, that they were better than him, he knew that and even his parents knew it, they were pure of soul, unlike him.
He could hear a commotion nearby so he flew down to see what was going on, only to see parents watching in horror as their child was being caught by a Raum demon, Alec ran toward them pulling his seraph blade from its sheath and cut tentacle after tentacle, freeing the child who ran to his parents and allowing the family to re-unite. The demon hissed in rage and turned on the figure that snatched the tiny morsel from his claws, Alec stood firm, however, and soon killed the demon, but not before he got himself stung several times. As he moved to the alley, trying to catch his breath, he could feel the demon poison coursing through his veins.
The family hurried after the fallen man in the alley, all they wanted was to thank him, but he was no longer there, only a blood drops showed his trail.
"We need to find a healer" the man said. Looking at the fair amount of blood left on the ground. "Do we know any warlock who lives nearby?"
"Maybe the High Warlock could help?"
The woman took their child as they ran to the High Warlock apartment seeking help.
As for Alec, he noticed that his wrist was scratching itching and only then did he notice that it was more than the scratch he believed it to be, the blood has been dripping from his wound, as he drew the iratze rune to seal the wound and deal with demon poison.
At least everyone will be safe tonight, and with his healing all traces of the fight were gone. He did not wish to be tracked by his parabatai rune, and certainly did not want anyone following a blood trail left after he left the battle.
Alec walked to the apartment, he could use some sleep, and he hoped he could do so in peace.
Magnus Bane loft
The door was opened as a family barged in, they all seemed shaken, and didn't see the warlock had guests, as the father was about to speak he noticed the three shadowhunters and the vampire standing in there.
"Shadowhunters, maybe we should go and come back another time." The mother stammered as they slowly began to back away.
"What's wrong? has something happened to you?" Magnus asked.
"It almost did," the mother said, holding her child closer to her chest as she added, "My child was caught by a demon, but then a man came by, and used a weapon to cut and release my child."
She gestured at the sheathed seraph blades Jace carried. "You have the exact weapon he had, so maybe he was a shadowhunter. Nevertheless, he saved our lives." The mother concluded.
"That's good, but what do you need me to do?" Magnus asked, not knowing where it's lead to.
"He's hurt, maybe we can follow the trail of blood so you can heal him?" the father asked.
"It's worth a shot." Magnus answered as he looked at Jace "why don't the four of you go and see if you can find this mystery man to bring here?".
"Do you think it's our brother or are there any shadowhunters who hunt solo?" Isabelle asked her brother.
"I don't know, even if he's hurt, I didn't feel anything, so he is probably blocking me, either way it's worth a shot to follow the trail of blood." Jace said. With a surge of hope to find his brother.
"Well, let's go then," Jace added, and then he turned to the family and asked, "Can you lead the way to where you last saw him?"
"Of course." With that all of them left Magnus's loft, leaving the warlock to close the door with the snap of his fingers, letting magic do the job.
"That was weird, since when does a shadowhunter help a downworlders family," Magnus mused as he moved his hands to pet his cat, with an uncharacteristic grim look he said out loud, "I hope it's the last time I will see Lightwood family members around."
