Chapter 2:
Year 1989
Valentine was back at the laboratory. The scientists he had "employed" to work on cloning had been testing various theories for the past four years. Unfortunately none of them had been correct. Dr. Stein had called for Valentine again, claiming that this time he had finally created a clone. Dr. Stein greeted Valentine in his office.
"You've figured it out?" Valentine questioned.
"Yes," Dr. Stein answered, excitedly.
Valentine guessed he had a right to be excited. After all he had just figured out how to make a clone of a human, or so he claimed.
"Show me," Valentine instructed.
Dr. Stein led Valentine down several hallways until they came to a thick steel door with a security key pad. Dr. Stein punched in a code and pushed the door open. Inside the room was a baby lying in a crib.
"I thought you said you had just figured out how to clone," Valentine raised his eyebrow.
"Well I wanted to make sure that it would actually work before I told you it did," Dr. Stein justified.
A tick started in Valentine's jaw. "Let me make this very clear for you. Do not ever keep something from me. Ever again. Got it?"
Dr. Stein cowered back, nodding his head franticly. "Yes sir."
Valentine strode over to the baby and looked down at him. From what he could see the baby looked like him. The baby had a dusting of fair white hair covering his head. At that moment the baby looked up at Valentine with pitch black eyes. Valentine studied the baby for a few more seconds before turning back to Dr. Stein.
"I will be bringing you more DNA shortly. Be prepared to make a clone using it," Valentine informed Dr. Stein.

With V & S dead and gone
Shadowhunter lives are peaceful and long.
But that's just boring,
So to add some spice,
Let's bring villains back,
Cause they're rather nice!
