In the end, I'm just pretty much messing with everyone's characters and swapping them. Tell me if it's too much, or if you think they really don't fit and I'll (probably) change it. :)
Also, this is mainly just a filler chapter, so I do apologize if it is brief. Lately by chapters have been longer, but this one will be significantly shorter, sozums.
They all sat at the long mahogany table, a stiff glare bouncing between everyone. Just then, Alec walked in and, sensing the tense atmosphere, cheerily started the conversation.
"Simon, how nice it is to see you!" He started, facing Brooklyn's vampire representative. Said vamp just growled and bared his shining white teeth. Simon was, in fact one of the nicer vampires. But he had –surprisingly- been close with the Seelie Queen, in an almost motherly way, and the news had upset him. Alec simply nodded in return, understanding hisss response. He turned towards the fae representative.
"Lucian." He nodded curtly, glancing at the dark skinned, bright green eyed man, before facing the next occupant on the table.
"Meliorn." He stated with an equally simple tone. He went long back with the Alpha and, though he wasn't unpleasant, they had never really gotten along. Once everyone had been acknowledged, he sat down. The room was still gloomy, and Alec inwardly sighed, contemplating how dreadfully this meeting was going to go.
"So, for those of you that haven't heard, the Seelie Queen had been kidnapped." At this most of the occupants of the table nodded, but a few had not heard the news and immediately jumped up to ask questions.
"Who was it? Do you know?" Alec nodded in their general direction, not actually seeing who had asked that question.
"She was kidnapped by a Greater Demon. Valentine." The gasp resounded around the dimly lit room, low and menacing. Then all hell broke loose. People turned to glare at each other, blaming them for the problem. For no apparent reason, mind you. "Everybody, calm down." Alec turned on his authoritative voice, loud and commanding. Everybody quickly stopped talking and turned to face the High Warlock. "We were informed of this around three days ago by the queens daughter, Clarissa." At this he gestured to the little pixie girl who was hanging onto Jace and hiding in the corner. "Now, Clarissa stated that before she saw it take place, you vampires," he gesture to the large group of pale skinned persons to the right of him "were seen leaving from a meeting with her." He glance curiously, though not accusatively at them. Simon, the clan leader, suddenly stood up.
"Yes, we were there, but we had nothing to do with this! The queen was like a mother to me!" At these words he blushed slightly* though it was barely noticeable in the dark. "We were discussing the fact that recently there has been members of the Seelie court on Vampire territory." He glanced accusingly at the fae residents who glared back at him in return.
"Everybody, calm down. He is not blaming anybody." He turned to Simon. "Are you?" he asked, a brow raised. The vampire ducked his head, the confident façade from earlier cracking and showing his usual shy self.
"No, of course not." He muttered before taking his seat once more. Alec nodded before facing everybody.
"Does anyone else have anything to add to this already pleasant conversation?" he asked sarcastically, looking at each group in turn. Suddenly the dark skinned fae from before, Lucian, spoke up.
"Just two days ago, right when Clary mentioned the kidnapping happened, I noticed something." Alec's mind caught for a moment on the use of Clary's nickname. Perhaps Lucian was further into this that they had previously thought?
"And what, pray tell, did you notice?" he asked, curiosity spiked.
"There was a disruption in the interdimetional portal. I thought nothing of it, it had nothing to do with me, but now…" he trailed off, his bright green eyes flittering around before settling on his own hands in his lap.
"So, are you saying…? You think that the Seelie Queen was taken to a different dimension?"
"Yes. Our Queen was taken to an alternate dimension. And I know how to get her back."
*lol, did anybody notice something wrong with that? No? Okay. Well if you did, have a cookie.
Lol, that was my attempt at a cliff hanger. xD. Someone reviewed that if I didn't know how to end a chapter, I should leave it in a cliff hanger and… Oh well. I tried.
Please Review and tell me what you think. I again apologize for this chapter being so short.
