At the Institute, Jace was fighting Clary with swords. It wasn't a fair fight really, one highly trained Shadowhunters against one who had only been in the shadow world for a year. But she had learned fast, and was now flipping of walls and brandishing her sword with skill. But sadly, daily distractions really do not help when in the middle of a training session.
A phone rang, and Clary was distracted just long enough for Jace to flick his wrist and Clary's sword go flying, clattering across the room.
"I win, and you lose. Battles over, and you have died. Again." Jace, smirking, went over to too a bench where his things were, and picked up his phone, accepting the call.
"Its Magnus," said a faint voice on the other side of the line.
"I am aware, I have caller ID." Said Jace, always sarcastic. "What do you want."
"I need you and Clary too come over to my apartment. Now."
"What, is there something wrong with Alec?" fear creeping into his voice.
"No, but you have got to come to my apartment. It's urgent."
"Can you at least tell me what?"
"No, just bring weapons. Lots of them."
"Demons?"
"No, but something just as bad." Magnus said, hanging up.
"Ok. Gather your things, prepare for battle, whatever a leader says. We are venturing too the treacherous land of the apartment of Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood, so set your will in order, and let's go."
Clary rolled her eyes and saluted. "Yes cap'n. Anything you say oh fearless leader."
In the brightly lit basement of Eric's house, four boys were hunched over a board like moths to light.
"And I, Simon Lewis now send my troll army too your castle, Eric, to defeat you!" As this heroic phrase was uttered by the champion Simon, his phone rang. It was Magnus Bane.
"Yes?"
"I need you to come over to my apartment. Now.
"Can it wait? I am currently dominating D and D."
"No it can not wait, there is an emergency and you are going to be dragged into it."
"Are you sure? Not just one more hour?"
"NO SIMON LEWIS IT CAN NOT WAIT ONE MORE HOUR JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE WINNING A FICTIONAL GAME. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT A FRIEND DIED AND AN EVIL WIZARD IS STANDING IN THE WAY OF EVERY ONE'S DEATH, INCLUDING YOURS AND MINE, SOLELY BECAUSE WE ARE MUGGLES. COME OVER NOW!"
"Sorry I asked, I will be at your apartment shortly." And Simon hung up.
"Dude, was that your mom?" Eric asked.
"No that was most definitely not my mom."
"Well, who ever called you was really mad. You better go."
"See you guys later." Said Simon as he walked off, heading in the direction of Magnus's apartment.
Izzy was shopping at Victoria's Secret when her phone rang. Hands full, she dug threw her purse and pulled out her phone too see Alec calling.
"Hello! THis is Izzy and Inc how many I help you?"
"I need you too come over to my apartment." Alec said,
"Huff. I'm shopping!"
"Apparently, it's an emergency."
"Apparently? What's that supposed to mean?
"I really have no idea. But it must be important, because Mangus is yelling at Simon." Alec snickered. "What are you shopping for?" He asked
"I am looking at a silver dress that I could rock with my gold wip, the heels mom got for me, the ones with sharp ends, the headband you got me for my birthday, you know, when you put a changing rune on it, it changes into a dagger, and the crystal earrings of death Jace got me for Christmas."
"Do you have any weapons on you?" Alec asked.
"Is that really a question? Of course! I have too be prepared if I meet a demon on the streets." Izzy said with enthusiasm.
"All right. When can you be at the apartment?"
"Fifteen minutes? Maybe twenty?"
"See you then. Love you."
"Bye! Love you too." Isabelle respond, taking the dress of the rack and heading towards the check out.
