God i am so ashamed of this chapter.. please just kill me now T_T...
When Gideon just came over to Pandemonium I knew that something was wrong , because he usually never shows up here without text message or call.
I was right, when I saw him entering club or bar whatever in heck things call this place, I knew something was wrong.
He was pale – which considering his pale skin is totally of track, because I thought he could not get any much paler – he was even more paler than crashing his brand new car and calling his aunt. Since his aunt is serious business even I was scared to face her. That women could make you do anything without even telling you to – just the she looked at you.
Sometimes I joked about how I was going to start shitting bricks next time we got in trouble and she had to save our necks. Since I spent pretty much all the time with Gideon and others, when they were not to busy God knows what.. But something I knew bad must happen because I knew Gideon and Tessa got along very well - you could clearly see that they cared about each other. Even when Gideon once told me they were not really even related, but that was other dark corner in our brains we never talked.
About our past and about what we did or what we have done. It was better that way.
Even when I called Gideon my best friend I knew I was not ready to tell him what happened to me when I was a kid, and I knew he could not talk about his past because apparently he didn't know anything and well I never made him talk about something he did not want. Gideon was that kind of person. Never talking about his own problems if we don't ask or more like don't drag them out of him, I think he cared to much about others. Like once we were for some unknown reason attacked by bunch of some forsaken he jumped in front of me without thinking and took blow that would have killed him if not his warlocks powers that healed his skin after couple hours even when I knew he felt pain for the rest of week he never said anything about it.
I shake my head to clear thoughts I did not want to think about, but it was to late Gideon had stormed out of club. And I was standing probably with dumbfounded look on my face – probably I would have face palmed myself if not voice I heard behind me. I knew I was going to contact others as soon as possible, because I was really worried about Gideon. And since I couldn't leave till I finish my shift I had to make sure others found Gideon, his out of control magic always brought pain to him and he always ended up feeling like worthless warlock on earth. Proba-
"Hey, dude I talking with you!"
Huh.? Oh right I zoomed out. I wish sometimes I could just stab some creatures at this club, because of their attitude..
"Sorry. I didn't hear you – what did you ask me?" - I turn around and face black haired girl for some reason she reminds me of Gideon – it feels like they have same face features like straight nose – pale skin... but what.. No never mind he is warlock, God I was getting tired today...
"Well I asked you like ten thousand tim-"
"Izzy, don't start argument we don't need..."
I turn around once again and see this Magnus Bane persona that Gideon had eye on … well he does not look to bad. If not bags under eyes and this baggy sweater... Blah, Gideon is rubbing of on me.
"Sorry, I was just thinking. So what did you ask?"
"Well I was wondering what was up with this guy I saw you talking with. Blue hoodi-"
"You mean Gideon?" I was not wondering why Gideon didn't really like shadow hunters I saw blades of some sort and those weird black tattoos just now so I knew who they were, but it doesn't mean they can talk shit about my friends by any chance.
Even thought I wondered why he was scared of them. I mean come on he could make them into pile of ashes with only lifting his finger...
"So... that guy is Gideon. I – we I mean we were just wondering if there is something wrong, he stormed out of here like he was scared we were going to kill him or something... anyway who is he?"
"Why would you need to know who he is?"
"Because-..."
"Because once we didn't listen to someone we care about and that person ended up hurt, dude you don't need to worry about us hurting your friend. He just looked not fine that's all..
I noticed golden haired boy. He kept so silent before I didn't even notice him...well it felt like they were talking truth.. so there is nothing wrong if I tell them who is Gideon it is not like they are not going to find out soon – maybe they are even from same Institute Gideon was talking. Some basic information might help him with calming down when going there...
Oh well..
"Well um I er I am sorry about your friend I guess" I saw them all flinch I wonder what have happened...
"No need, and I am sorry for being rude, I am Isabella, but everyone calls me Izzy. It is just well our life is not all in correct places for a long – so well sorry I snapped. This – she pointed at golden haired boy- is Jace. Next is – she pointed at boy with slightly curled hair and glasses, but I.- he is Simon my boyfriend and vampire –
I never noticed how I backed couple steps back but I saw this Izzy person shaking her head a little and I stopped in my track.
"I am sorry... We, I mean I don't have good relationships with … um vampires...and I never heard shadow hunter dating vampire..sorry"
I knew I sounded lame even for my own ears, but if you were friends with Gideon and others of gang you would pick up this not liking vampires thing. Personally I didn't care about them.
"It is fine. Don't worry I wont bite you"
This Simon said and he sounded … friendly? Not all this I-gonna-suck-your-blood-out. So I just nodded.
"Well since you two are fine now I should introduce last person – she pointed at High Warlock- this is Magnus Bane H-"
"Izzy, I long ago dropped that tittle even when people still know who I am. I am not it. You know why..." There was sadness in that warlocks eyes – I did not wonder now why Gideon wanted to talk with this person. He looked.. broken? And-
"So since you know who we are who are you then?"
"Oh, I am Ash Blake. I work here as bartender.. I guess is nice to meet you all?"
They all nodded and Izzy slightly smiled, but it never reached her eyes. I wonder what happened to them all..Sign .. again.
"So about your friend?"
"Oh yea right crap I should call other so they could look for him. He is Gideon. Well he is warlock... and-"
"Warlock?! I never heard of new warlocks in this place. Wait.. that is why I … never mind" said Magnus.
He looked kind of shocked to hear this, but like.. don't know he should know? I looked at them all and saw sour faces. Huh?
"Well, he just hit 18 last week and sometimes he loses control over his magic and stuff..and-"
"WHAT?You are Telling me THAT This warlock is losing CONTROL?AND YOU LET HIM STORM OUT? DO you not know what could happen if he went fully out of control?! Magnus by the end was shouting. And I was now truly scared for my life , I knew now why he was called High Warlock..
"I .-"
"Never mind I will find this Gideon before he kills himself with his own ability stupid creatures you are never understand what it means to be warlock!"
Before I could collect what was happening Magnus Bane pushed past me and ran out of club. While his companions had probably same face expression as me.
"What the fuck? Just happened?"
