It took a while for Isabelle and Simon to get over each other's appearances but they eventually dealt with it. It was hysterical for everyone though.
"So…" Simon says. "It's a Prank War?"
"Yes Simon!" Jace complains.
"So who is it against?" Simon asks.
"Well… I didn't think about that one?" Isabelle sighs. "What do you think Jace?"
"I don't care… As long as we get back at Magnus and Alec I am fine…" Jace sighs as he sits upside down on the couch.
"Even though I really want to get back at them I say we make it fair… You know, two people per team." Clary states.
"So, the teams should be couples. Magnus is with Alec. I'm with Iz. And Jace is with Clary."
"I say we include another team. Just to make things more interesting…" rues Isabelle.
"Jordan should be back here with Maia soon… Do you want to include them too?" Simon asks.
"Yeah, I guess we should include them too…" Isabelle says. "Let's call Mag's and Alec over so they know about this too…"
"I'll call them." Jace gets up and sits on the couch normally while he pulls put his phone and dials Alec's number.
"Hey Alec" Jace says after about three rings. "We need you and Magnus to meet me, Iz, Clary, Simon, Maia, and Jordan at Simon's place."-"Okay see ya." Everyone stares at Jace until he tells them what Alec said.
"Hey!" Jordan walks through the door followed by Maia. "Well, you two look different… Did you both do something different with your hair?" Jordan says teasing along with Maia's laughter.
"Ha you're so funny Jordan…We were actually planning on calling you two but you guys just shown up." Simon says.
"Alec and Magnus will be coming soon to… They should be here in about five minutes." Jace says from the other side of the room.
"Okay? So what's going on?" Maia asks.
"Well…" Isabelle starts explaining to them the pranks that have been going on, and how they came up with starting a Prank War. They explain the teams and the rules they have come up with so far until Alec and a quite sparkly Magnus walks through the door.
"Sup shadow hunters, werewolves, and unwanted vampire?" Magnus says walking through the door.
"You know I live here and I can kick you out if I want to." Simon states.
"Shut up Sally!" Magnus whines.
"Oh for the last time! It's Simon! Is it really that hard to forget my name? It's-"Simon cuts off. "We called you both over for something important…"
"Yeah we know Stewart now are you going to tell us what it is or kick us out right when we get here?" Magnus and Alec walk over to the group of teens and just sit on a bar stool by Maia and Jordan.
"We aren't letting you get away with those pranks… So there for, I am declaring a prank war and there is nothing any single one of you can do about it! Rules are, you only win by being the last team left. The ways to get eliminated are by getting caught by the other teams or people catching you doing the pranks." Declares Isabelle. "The teams are! Me and Simon. Clary and Jace. Alec and Magnus. And Maia and Jordan. Does anyone else have anything else to add to this?"
"What do the winners get or what are the punishments for the losers?" Maia asks.
"I'm not sure?" Isabelle says. "Do you guys have any ideas?"
After a long moment of thinking silence. "I got it!" Magnus yells from where he was sitting. "The losers have to do whatever the winners come up with for a punishment!"
"Sounds good to me!" Clary says.
"So… Is this the start of a Prank War?" Jordan says in anticipation.
"I believe it is…" Magnus says with a smirk, grabbing Alec's hand and flashing out of the room…
"Come on Clary!" Jace yells, picking her up from the couch and darting out the door.
"Alright Simon, this is my apartment, so out!" Jordan yells.
"Well, we know where Jordan and Maia will be then…" Simon sighs as he walks out the front door with Isabelle.
"Where do we go?" Isabelle asks.
"Jace is most likely at the institute." Simon starts. "Magnus and Alec are probably at Magnus' flat. And, well, we know where Jordan and Maia are so…"
"Well…" Isabelle thinks as they walk down the steps of the apartment building, walking across the street.
"Jocelyn and Luke are currently in Idris… Hopefully they don't mind if we borrow the place…" Simon says with hope and a smile on his face.
"That's a good idea…" Isabelle smiles. "They probably won't know where will go, so it might be a while before they even target us if they don't have a clue where we are."
"Good idea Iz." Simon says throwing an arm over her shoulders. "We will just have to wait them out for a few days…"
"So, Clary darling." Jace says with a smirk, throwing the Institute doors open. "Who shall we target first?"
"I don't know?" She says with a shrug.
"I say we wait to target Alec and Mag's… They would expect us to target them immediately… I say we get the werewolves first…"
"Sure, I guess…" Clary sighs throwing herself on the nearest couch.
"You guess?" Jace wonders aloud. "Come on Clary! It's a prank war! I don't lose these things! You must try your best!"
"Of course!" Clary yells. "What do werewolves hate?"
"I- I, uhhh…" Jace says confused. "I actually have no idea?"
"They hate silver!" Clary practically yells.
"…" Jace stares at her in utter astonishment. "And your point is?"
"We can put silver all over Jordan's apartment!" Clary grinned mischievously.
Jace just stared at her again with his mouth hanging open. "That is very dangerous you know?!" he practically yelled. Clary's grin faded and she look down at the floor. "And I love it!"
Clary looked up and smiled. "Yay!"
"So how are we going to get them out of the apartment?" Jace asked.
"Maybe we should just wait till they are asleep and then get silver powder and put it all over the floor." Clary said.
"That's a good idea. But we may not be sure they will be sleeping…" Jace said, wiggling his eyebrows..
"Ew…" Clary frowned. "That's gross… I guess we should wait until they leave to prank someone…"
"Okay… Let's go over to the apartment and wait to see if they leave to prank anyone. Jordan seems like he may get to the pranking quickly." Jace stated.
"Let's go buy silver powder first. In case they leave before we know it." Clary said.
"Alright." Jace said while grabbing a jacket. "Let's go."
"So…" Maia sighed, sprawling out on the couch. "What are we going to do first in this Prank War?"
"Well I don't want to be the first one out of this. We need to figure out who our first target will be." Jordan itched at his chin.
"So Magnus and Alec are probably at Magnus' apartment. Jace and Clary are at the institute. Where would Simon and Isabelle go?" Maia asked.
"They could've went to the institute as well." Jordan said.
"They can't. Simon is a vampire, he can't set one foot in the institute." Maia said.
"Oh yeah…" Jordan sighed. "Well they couldn't have come here."
"Obviously." Maia gestured with her arms around the small apartment.
"Let's not worry about them now… I say we target Jace and Clary first because that's the one place I'm sure they are at." Said Jordan
"What should we do to them?" Maia asked.
"Ugh!" Jordan whined frustrated. "I don't know much about those two except the fact that they really need to get a room."
Maia snickered. "Well I know that Jace has a strange fear of ducks, but Clary doesn't, and I want to target them both."
"How about we mess up the institute?" Jordan guessed.
"Okay, but there is a problem. We can't get into the institute without a shadowhunter." Maia said.
"Damnit! There is always a problem in my plans!" Jordan knocked over cup that was resting on the kitchen table.
"Calm down…" Maia sat up from the couch. "We will figure something else out… But can it wait? I'm tired."
"But Maia!" Jordan whined.
"I'm not really giving you choice." Maia snarled at him. She laid back down on the couch and rested her head on the arm rest of the couch. "I'm going to take a nap while you think of something."
"But we are all in this together! You're supposed to help me…" Jordan smiled and sat down in front of Maia.
"I will help you. Later" Maia smiled as her eyelids began to grow heavy as she talked to Jordan.
"Night…" Jordan kissed her forehead and got up from the couch and sat at the table. He sat there and thought of ways to prank Clary and Jace as Maia slept soundlessly.
"Okay!" Clary shrieked as she got back in the passenger seat of Jace's car with a grocery sack in hand. "I bought ten jars of silver powder! When it's about eleven, it's currently ten, we will coat most of the floors of their apartment in the powder."
"I really hope they don't die…" Jace frowned. "This is very dangerous, for them!"
"SO?" Clary whined. "Let's just go!"
Jace pulled out of the glamored warlock store and drove slowly to Maia and Jordan's apartment. They parked far away from the apartment so they wouldn't be seen and crouched near the front door that led to the apartments. Jace and Clary were both dressed entirely in black. Jace even had on a black beanie.
"Alright, it's ten thirty." Jace whispered, as he turned on his phone, flooding the place with light. "I'm going to look through the window to see if the coast is clear and then we can go through the window." Clary nodded as Jace turned around.
Jace peeked into the window on the side of the apartment. Inside he could see that he was looking at the living room and all the lights were off. The only light was the TV. Across from the TV he could see Maia passed out on the couch. In the slightest bit of light he was getting from the TV he could see Jordan was sitting at the dining room table, asleep as well. Jace walked back to the front door of the apartment where Clary was patiently leaning against the wall.
"They are both passed out in there so be very quiet." Jace whispered to her. Clary just nodded and Jace led her over to the window he looked through at the side of the apartment. Jace opened the window and lifted Clary through the window easily, and then he crawled through himself.
Clary quickly took out two jars of silver powder and handed them to Jace and kept the others to herself. They both opened the jars and began to coat the floors in silver powder. It took six jars to cover the living room, dining room, and kitchen together. Then Jace headed to their bedroom with two jars in hand.
Clary had the other last two in her hand was covering the two bathrooms in silver powder. Clary finished early and headed to the living room and admired her and Jace's work. Jace soon came out later with two clean, empty jars in hand. They began to bag up the empty jars and quickly stopped when they heard talking. They both looked over at Jordan who was stirring in his sleep while mumbling to himself.
They both took this as a sign to quickly get out of there. They both quietly, and quickly, walked over to the window they had come through and began to exit. Clary's feet hit the ground and she immediately relaxed. Clary went to close the window, but stopped once again in the middle of their prank, and tensed up. Maia was stirring in her sleep as well, she was on the edge of the couch but she soon stopped. Clary relaxed again and closed the window.
And then Maia's hand went to the silver floor…
And there you go... Don't kill me! I know I stopped on a cliff hanger, well sort of. I know this prank is a little... evil. But trust me, I'm not going to let anyone die in this! There will be no deaths. But I have some very good ideas planned for later chapters that I hope you like. I hope your enjoying this fic so far! But I must go for now! Bye !
