AN: Another update! I forgot to say happy holidays(even though I'm real late) and I hope you all have a wonderful new year! 2016! I think this story may have two more chapters left. Also I picture Justin as Chris Hemsworth ? ゚リヘ?. If you already have a picture of him in your mind or something like that then keep that if you want. Sorry for any grammar mistakes.
Alec POV
Everything happened so fast. First Magnus attacked Jus- Vladimir. Then the others came barging in with weapons in their hands, thinking something had happened. All the commotion woke the baby, and she started crying. A fight broke out, but my mother came in and stopped it. Now we're all in the library and Vladimir is bound by invisible chains, courtesy of Magnus. Clary is trying to soothe the baby, but she keeps crying. The whole room is silent. My parents are somewhere else in the institute, discussing what we should do about Vladimir.
My dad wants to just kill him now and get it over with, but my mom wants to call The Clave. Jace is pacing the room, his seraph blade in his hand, just waiting for Vladimir to try something. "If you bounce her a little while rubbing her back she'll calm down." Vladimir speaks, destroying the torturing silence. Clary stops moving, looking over at him. "Why should any of us trust a word that comes out of your mouth?!" Simon speaks up. Vladimir scoffs, "I have given you no reason not to trust me since I met Alec. I told you were Robert was. I'm the reason you all have your father back, and yet you tie me up like some animal. Some thank you that is."
"Oh we're sorry. Did you want us to let you kill us in our sleep?!" Jace says. Vladimir glares at him, "If I wanted all of you dead then you would be. I have no quarrel with you people." Simon laughs, "Yeah right. You're just going to forget about the fact that we killed your creepy father/maker." Vladimir positions himself so that he's leaning on the wall, "Tell me, why would I basically hand you the location of Damien, knowing you'd either kill or turn him in, and then come back to kill you for doing what I knew you'd do?"
"That's what I've been asking myself all night." I mumble. I spoke louder than I thought I did because everyone heard me. "Because you're the bad guy! Bad guys never have a good reason for what they do." Simon says. Isabelle shakes her head, "Only you Simon, only you." She grabs his hand and brings him to sit down on the couch with her. The baby is still crying, no matter what Clary tries. "Do what he told you biscuit, it couldn't hurt to at least try." Magnus suggests.
Clary immediately does what Vladimir told her and the child stops crying. "See? I'm not so big and bad after all." Magnus steps forward, "Why Vladimir?" Vladimir looks at him, "My name is Justin." Jace twirls his blade around in his hand, "Okay then, why Justin did you help us then come here to kill us?" Jace asks, putting an emphasis on his name. Justin groans, "For the last time, I didn't come here to kill you! I just wanted to check on Alyssa!" Simon looked confused, "Who's Alyssa?" Izzy slapped him upside his head, "The baby Simon!" He made that oh sound and Jace laughed.
"Why? Why do you care about her so much? It's obvious she's the reason you told me about where is could find my father. So why?" I ask Justin. He sighs, slipping down the wall. When he's on the floor he puts his head on his knees. He actually looks kind birof weird since his arms are stuck to his sides. He mumbles something into his knees, "We can't hear you." Jace states. Justin lifts his head, "I care about her because she's my sister."
Magnus looks at him confused, "How is that your sister? You broke into Alicante about forty years ago, and then you were in your twenties. This child was just born, maybe a month or two ago. Your mother shouldn't be able to get give birth at her age." Justin shakes his head, a few tears falling from his eyes, "She's dead. My mother's dead. Damien kidnapped her when he took me all those years ago and had some warlock do some spell that would, basically, freeze time for her. Before he had the warlock do that though he made sure she got pregnant. He waited until he found your dad and he unfroze her. After she gave birth she killed herself because she didn't want to be apart of what he was doing."
"So that's why you wanted us to kill him?" Simon voiced his thoughts. Justin nodded, "That and because he was crazy. And also because of what he did to me and to Alyssa." Clary stopped bouncing her, "Wait, he injected her already?" Justin only nodded. "Then why doesn't she look like some scary monster? Wait, why don't you look like some scary monster?" Simon asked, rushing out the questions as soon as he thought of them. Justin looked at Magnus, "Break the chains and I'll talk." Magnus nodded, waving his hand. Justin got up and stretched before he went to sit down in a chair. "I'm surprised you stayed in them that long." Magnus chuckled.
"What do you mean you're surprised?" Magnus shrugged and grabbed my hand. He went to sit down on another couch, bringing me with him. He lay his head on my shoulder, "Those chains weren't enough to hold him. I was just seeing what he would do. He could have broken out of them the minute I cast the spell." Magnus said, shrugging his shoulders. Siimon jumped off the couch, "What! This whole time I've been mouthing off because he's been tied up in unbreakable chains and he actually could have broken them!" Izzy yanked his arm, pulling him back down onto the couch.
"I told you that if I wanted you dead you would be. I also said I didn't come here to kill you, I came here to check up on Alyssa. Now the reason why I look normal is because of magic. At first I had to do a spell, I would always be constantly saying it in my head. Eventually I made a potion that allowed me to look normal for a longer period of time without using too much of my energy. That's my story. Mow the reason Alyssa looks the way she does is because of Robert's blood."
I was just about to question him when he raised his hand, silencing me. "Let me finish. Robert was, in a way, touched by death itself and he survived. Damien needed someone like that so that he could use their blood to make Alyssa look normal. I don't know all the details about it, but basically his blood will allow her to look normal her entire life, unless she chooses otherwise." No one spoke for a minute, we were letting all of the new information sink in.
"So now that we've established that you aren't evil and trying to kill us, what do we do with you?" Izzy said. Justin stood up, "Now that I know that Alyssa is okay and in good hands, I'm going to leave. I'll come back to visit her every once in awhile though." I stood up, "What do you mean visit her? Aren't you taking her with you? Who is going to look after her?" Justin laughed and went to stand by the window, "You idiot. I put my sister's life in the very capable hands of you and Magnus."
I looked back at Magnus, he looked shocked. "He barely remembers to feed his cat! We can't raise a baby!" Magnus put his hand over his heart, pretending to be hurt, "I take offense to that. The Chairman is alive and perfectly healthy." I roll my eyes, "Justin, you can't seriously want Magnus and I to raise your sister. That's crazy!" He shrugged, "I trust you. I know you don't want to hurt her. I know when your dad wanted to kill her you and him," he pointed at Jace, "stopped him. So I think you guys are just what Alyssa needs. I can't raise her, I'm kind of running from the law you know."
"No one is really looking for you." Clary says. He shakes his head, "Maryse and Robert called The Clave about ten minutes ago. They told them all about me, but left out Alyssa. So now you can protect her for me. Protect her from The Clave, from anyone of Damien's followers, from the world even. But you also have to protect her from your father, he won't give up." I had no idea what to say.
Apparently Magnus did, "Well then you need to leave. I'm sure they're sending over their best shadowhunters as we speak. We'll protect her Justin, I promise." He nodded and looked around the room at all of us, "Thank you all. I know you'll love her like she was your own flesh and blood. I'll be in touch." He then jumped out the window. I ran over to the window to see where he landed, it was a pretty high jump. But he wasn't there. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.
The doors to the library busted open and dozens of shadowhunters piled into the room. One of them, a man, stepped forward, "Where is he? Where is Vladimir?"
