City of Jewels

--- 12. To The Rescue ---

"So you mean to say it's actually a demons portal…? And what the hell is The Lost City?" Isabelle asked as she wiped the tears with her sleeve and pushed the subject of her mother's secret aside.

Magnus happened to be occupied. He thought he should entertain himself by decorating Clary's apartment. So with an instant snap of his fingers, Clary's apartment seemed to have transformed into a decent looking loft, not to mention a glittered frame holding a photo of Magnus and Chairman Meow dangling above the mantle piece.

He turned toward Isabelle with a satisfied expression and then nodded.

"It's the secret realm to the demons dimension." Magnus continued.

"The City of Jewels if I remember correctly." He said and made his way toward Clary's bed then slumped himself down sprawling his tall frame across the bed with his hands behind his head. He thought he may as well make himself comfortable. He carried on with his commentary.

"I've only heard of it once in my lifetime. An old tale my mother used to tell me, but it houses the most sacred jewels of Lake Lyn. Some of which are more powerful than others, but when stolen from the waters, they become energy magnets." He shrugged. "I can't remember the whole story, but I know it's impossible to get in; you have to be invited to get in there." Magnus finished while straightening up the photo on the wall with another click of his fingers.

Simon was momentarily amused while he watched Magnus with complete puzzlement, but he refused to ask why Magnus put a photo of himself up in Clary's apartment. He was just happy to see that her apartment was clean.

"I didn't know you had a mom." Alec zoned in on the conversation. His face made a big question mark toward Magnus, and then he sat down at the foot of the bed. Magnus grinned. "Neither did, I at the time." He winked at him earning him an eye roll from Alec.

Simon threw his hands up in exasperation. "Great, so where the hell do you suppose we get VIP tickets to the underworld of doom?" Simon asked as he dumped himself down on to the sofa. Isabelle followed in suit to comfort him.

Magnus rolled his eyes. "You play too many video games my idiot friend…you're looking at the VIP man himself…me!" He jerked his thumb toward his chest. "I could get us in there no sweat." He said proudly.

"Oh yeah? And how do you intend on doing that? A click of a finger and we're there?" Isabelle rolled her eyes. "Even I know that's impossible, even for a warlock." Izzy said jumping to Simon's defense.

He just shook his head in disapproval. "Ugh! You children are so naïve sometimes…haven't you been paying attention lately? Or are you two lost in that love-coat you wear everyday? Incase you have forgotten. I am part Demon myself…so I guess you can say I'll be the guest of honor." He said grinning mischievously and then his eyes danced up and down Simon and Isabelle. "You guys can be my annoying tag-along's that have nothing better to do but tag-along." He stated as if they bored fungus out of their clothes. Simon narrowed his eyes, "Oh we'll tag along alright." He said as a voice of come-back, but knew it was lame the second he said it.

Alec nudged him in the arm making Magnus grin with triumph. "Not including you my snookem pie, you'll be my partner in crime of course; all you have to do is look pretty for me, the rest I'm sure I can take care of."

Simon rolled his eyes." Ugh! Too much information lover-boy! Save your fantasies for later, we have to save Clary."

Magnus kept his grin on his face. "Alright children stand back!" He demanded and made his way toward the stained wooden floorboards.

He created a portal just over the pale rune that scarred the floor by tracing his sharp claws over the pattern. The runes melted together like hot liquid metal and formed a black hole just like the one Clary had created awhile ago.

Isabelle and Simon stared with disbelieving eyes as they watched Magnus at work. Finally the portal was done leaving a black liquid hole whirling on the floor. "Whoa! That was awesome! How'd you do that?" Simon asked in awe.

Magnus straightened up dusting himself off on the shoulder as if that was an explanation of itself. "Mad skill!" He said with a satisfied glee.

"Alright who wants to go first?" Magnus asked gesturing toward the portal. They all exchanged looks of astonishment, waiting for someone to jump to the opportunity first.

"I vote Downworlders first." Alec said warily. Isabelle nodded. "I'm with you on that one." She chimed lightly.

Magnus rolled his eyes. "Nephilim," He sighed. "Fine I'll go first, shall I?" He said to no-one in particular and made his way toward the black hole. Alec followed behind him and one by one, they were swallowed up by the black whirl pool of darkness.

The meeting inside the Hall of Accords had been adjourned and the women of Idris scurried along the streets to check on their children; while the men huddled on the dais to sketch out a plan to help their new leader Lucian Graymark find his wife Jocelyn.

Several search parties were pointed to their marks making sure every part of Idris was covered but Lucian needed more efficient help.

A group he once considered his family when he thought he had lost everything when he first learned his fate the night he was bitten by a beast. Ever since then; Luke was cursed with Lycanthropic disease so one would say and made refuge on the outskirts of Alicante.

He even used to lead a pack of wolves west of Brocelyn Plain, and he knew they would be ready and willing to help him, if he was ever in need and now was the time he needed them most. He thanked everyone for playing a part and made his way toward the forest.

The streets of Idris were lit up with lights and people with torchlight's searching the perimeter while Luke decided to leave in search for his wolf pack.

As soon as he was out of sight from the city's glow of lights, his flannel shirt started ripping as his muscles came into view. His teeth barring out of his mouth were growing longer and his claws came out to play. All of a sudden his face morphed into a wolf-like beast and his jeans were discarded as the sandy color of his fur coated around him. A brief second had passed and abruptly he was running on all fours as his speed picked up rapidly.

He ran with the speed of a true Lycan making the wet muddy surface spring up behind him forming into dust clouds. He was eager to find his friends if it meant getting a step closer to finding Jocelyn. He started thinking about the Seelie queen and why she was willing to make a deal with him. Did she know where Jocelyn was or was this just another one of her black mail charms that the faerie were capable of? They were cruel and cunning and telling the truth but only half of it was their motto.

Luke shook his thoughts aside and ran faster.

He was in the forest now making trees rush by like speeding bullets. It would have looked like the trees split apart and created a walk way for him as he raced by in a blur. He finally came to a halt when he heard something on the east side of the forest.

He instantly thought of poachers but then remembered he was in Idris, but his guard was on high alert to be cautious. He lowered his snout to the ground and sniffed the area. Another rustle sounded in the bushes a few feet away and his ears shot up in an instant.

He narrowed his eyes as he saw a figure in the distance. A young brown wolf came into view as the moonlight casted an eerie hue on its fur. Luke realized who it was. It was Maia.

"Maia? What are you doing out here?" Luke asked through his mind as he panted to catch his breath.

"Luke? Fancy seeing you out here, I thought you didn't like Brocelyn Plain?" Maia replied through her mind as she too was panting to catch her breath.

"I never said I didn't like Brocelyn Plain, I said I didn't like Idris." Luke grinned showing his sharp teeth.

"Fair enough, so what are you doing here? Have you come to take your crown back as King? Or you just out for a stroll in the woods?" Maia teased speaking through her thoughts.

He shook his head. "Long story, there's no time to explain, but I need you to round up the pack for me, can you do that?" He asked with pleading eyes.

Maia nodded. "Yeah sure, but what's the emergency?"

Luke lowered his head and sat down. "Jocelyn's missing, she was last seen an hour ago outside the Hall of accords, something's wrong, and I need your help."

Maia's eyes expanded. "Jocelyn's missing too? Shit I knew there was something weird going on around here."

"What do you mean?" Luke's eyebrows furrowed.

"Well a few hours ago one of our own went missing too, a new kid, Darius Boyle. That's who I was looking for, and then I found you."

"Damn, do you have an idea who took him?"

"Yeah, I only caught the two women. One had long black hair, tall, looks like that Isabelle girl, and the other lady was short, petite and Asian looking."

Lukes expression contorted into fury as he realized in an instant of who Maia was talking about.

"Are you sure? Did you see where they went?"

Maia nodded in the direction toward the city, where Luke had just come from. "That way."

"Alright, this is what I want you to do. I need you to go round up the pack for me and tell them to fan out and cover the outskirts of the city. I need a group to search east of Alicante. Then have the rest meet me at the North gate, and wait for my signal." Luke said while his expression showed his true nature of leadership, but his pain still shot through like a stab in the heart.

Maia nodded happy to help a friend in need. She noticed his expression on his face and she could sense his loss. "Don't worry boss, we'll find her."

His head jerked up and met her gaze. "I hope so." He finished and then Maia turned to walk away. "Oh and Maia?" Luke yelled, making Maia turn in her tracks. "Yes boss?"

"Tell them it's an order." Luke said sternly.

Maia nodded. "Sure thing boss!" She said and with that, she raced further into the forest leaving clouds of dust linger behind her.

A few moments had passed and Luke stood on the hind of his legs arching his head back and let out a big howl as the full moon glistened on his fur. Several howls echoed through the forest and he howled again. The ground started to rumble beneath his paws making the trees of Brocelyn Plain sway from side to side.

Luke silently thanked Maia and made his way back toward the city while the herd of wolves followed in suit several strides behind him. When he reached the North Gate, Luke gave his signal and a herd of beast took over the streets of Idris. Luke held up one of Jocelyn's necklaces to give them a smell of her scent and they trailed off one by one to find Jocelyn. He started out by the Hall where she was last seen and sniffed the area inside out.

Something pulled him toward a drain near the entrance of the hall but faded as soon as he was near it. He scanned the area by narrowing his eyes. He could feel something roil at the pit of his stomach and knew he was in the right spot, but couldn't quite pin-point where to look.

He hovered over the drain sniffing out the scent and Jocelyn's trails ended there. Luke flicked the steel lid off the drain and stared in the man hole. He furrowed his eyebrows. This drain leads to nowhere. He thought to himself, but why can I sense her here?

Maia came up behind him. "Did you find something boss?" Maia asked through her mind. Luke looked at her. "I'm not sure, I can sense Jocelyn but it ends at this drain."

"Do you think she's down there?" Maia said peering through the drain.

"Impossible because that drain leads to nowhere." Luke shook his head. A brief second later, Lukes' head shot up in realization. "I think this is a glamour."

"A what?" Maia asked curiously.

"It's a trickery that Shadowhunters are capable of creating. A glamor to hide what is really there, it has to be" Luke stated as his eyes lit up with hope.

"Okay...so how do we find out if it's a glamor?" Maia asked skeptically toward her leader.

"I have to morph back into my human body, in order to peel the glamor off and reveal whats really here."

"Why don't you just peel of this glamor thing as you are?"

"Well, I can try." His face fell serious.

Luke studied the drain for what felt like forever. His eyes narrowed as he focused intentively and slowly a piece of rock peeled a way but only slightly. He shook his head again and focused harder. A flick of hope flashed through his mind when more peeled off and one by one, the glamor peeled away revealing a ladder; which happened to lead deeper into what looked like a cave. Maia watched with disbelieving eyes as a ladder appeared in her sight out of the blue. Luke and Maia exchanged looks of astonishment.

"Okay, you have to teach me how to do that...that was sick!" Maia said with excitement.

"Sick?" He shook his head "Is that what the kids are saying these days?"

"Never mind Grandpa...just get going!" Maia rolled her eyes.

"Ladies First." Luke gestured for her to lead.

"Get outta here, your the boss, you go first!" Maia shoved him with her muzzle.

Luke chuckled "Fine, after me then!" He said as they both headed down the cave and entered a city that was lost to all shadowhunters.

A/N:

"Is this even worth watching?" Alec asked as he walked in.

"Of course! It's starring me in it!" Magnus raised an eyebrow while glitter shimmered in his trails.

"And me!" Isabelle trilled while nibbling on some popcorn.

"Fine! I'll just have to endure it!" Alec muttered.

"Isn't that a line from twilight?" Author asks.

"Yeah well, that weird wolfy mind thing is too!" Alec retorted.
