Chapter Thirty-two: Oh no.
'Alec?' The voice was faint, like someone was saying my name from a distance. 'Alec?' This time the voice was closer. I felt something touch my forehead. 'Alec!' The voice said a third time; I opened my eyes.
'What?' I asked as I sat up and looked around the room. I was in Magnus' kitchen. 'Why am I on the ground?'
'Alec baby, you don't remember a thing do you?'
'I remember you giving me a coffee and then me talking, but that's it.'
'You fainted.' I looked at Magnus closely; you could tell he was worried by the slight crease in his forehead. His were eyes watching me carefully. I tried to stand up but my legs felt as if they were made of jelly, Magnus had caught me around the waist and walked me over to the couch. 'Sit, I'll be right back.' He left the room. Meow. I looked down at my feet; Chairman Meow was sitting there staring at me. His head was tilted slightly to the side and his eyes were an unusually bright green.
'Here kitty.' I said, the tabby stretched and leaped up onto my lap.
Ten minutes had passed before Magnus had returned. He walked over to me and sat on the other end of the couch. Something's wrong, usually he would sit next me. 'Are you ok?' I asked.
'No. Just then as I walked into my room, someone was in there.'
'Who? Was it Marius!' He shook his head. 'Then who babe?'
'Ragnor Fell.' He looked at me and saw that I had no idea who he was and continued, 'He's a very old, powerful Warlock,' he paused, 'he took my powers away.' I gasped, 'Why would he do that?'
'He knew that I was going to bring Clary back to life and told me it was forbidden. I didn't know it was forbidden.' His voice cracked on the last word. I moved over to him and wrapped my arms around him. 'It's going to be ok, we'll work out a way to get your powers back but for now you need sleep.' I stood up; no longer felling like I was going to fall and pulled Magnus up too. I walked him to his room, 'Alec could you stay here tonight? I just don't want to be alone.' Magnus whispered.
'Of coarse I'll stay, I'll just be a minute.' I said as I left the room.
Jace, Magnus can't bring Clary back. Ragnor Fell took his powers away because it is forbidden for a Warlock to bring someone back from the dead. I'm sorry. My thumb hovered over the send button, I couldn't tell him this; Jace will do something stupid and dangerous if he can't have Clary back. 'Alec?' I flinched and hit the send button. Shit. Damn touch screen phones. 'What are you doing?' Magnus asked as he walked to the kitchen.
'Uh, nothing.' I lied, Magnus glared at me, 'what are you doing?' I asked quickly trying to change the subject.
'I had to get a drink, I can't snap my fingers and have a mug full of hot coffee appear in my hand anymore.' He sighed, 'now I feel so Mundane-' His eyes widened, 'Alec, I no longer have powers, am I a Mundane!'
