Alec was heading over to Magnus's house. That's where he usually went while everyone was at school. He felt a little bit left out whenever they talked about school. He felt like an outsider whenever they talked about teachers, or other students he just sat there not understanding. He tried to play it off by making fun of Jace, but he didn't especially like being the outsider.
He knocked on Magnus's door.
He had to remember to ask Magnus about that girl from the night before. She was definitely a warlock, with horns like those. Magnus most likely knew her.
Magnus opened the door. He was wearing an acidic green shirt, a sliver belt, tight purple jeans and black boots.
Alec leaned forward and gave him a quick greeting kiss.
"Are the children at school?" Magnus asked with a smile.
"It's weird when you call them children."
"Well technically they are." Magnus pointed out.
"It's still weird." Alec said.
Alec walked into Magnus's apartment and sat on a couch.
"Last night, when we were demon hunting, something strange happened." Alec said.
"What?" Magnus sounded concerned.
"It's not that worrying, but while Clary was fighting this demon, a warlock girl in a plain white mask with these big horns came out of nowhere and killed the demon then ran off." Alec said. "Do you know any warlocks like that?"
Magnus sat down beside Alec, crossed his legs and leaned back thoughtfully. "I can think of one that fits that description, but I didn't know she was in New York."
"Who is she?" Alec asked.
"Her name is Violet, I don't know her last name. She moves around a lot and usually protects a certain place or people. She despises Shadowhunters, especially the ones who are rude to downworlders, but he is very kind and would never watch anyone die if she could do something, so that would be why she helped Clary. She won't bother you and will help you protect the area against demons so don't worry too much about it." Magnus said.
"Well that's good to know. But if she's going to have her horns showing, why wear a mask?" Alec asked.
"She can make some I the best glamours I have ever seen, they can even fool Shadowhunters. She wears a mask because she will quite often pretend to be a mundane, but she doesn't want any Shadowhunters or other downworlders knowing, so she wears a mask to hide the part of her that stays the same when she does her glamour." He explained.
"Did you know her?' Alec asked.
"No, not personally. I encountered her once or twice, but it was merely in passing and she had her mask on the entire time. Nearly every time i hear about her it has something to do with gossip, apparently she's a bloodhound when it comes to current events, she must know everything there is to know." Magnus said.
"That's weird." Alec commented.
"Yes, but it's always good to stay informed, she just does it mildly obsessively.
"Oh."
"Well now that we have that out of the way, is there a movie you'd like to watch?"
...
Alec was waiting at the Institute when the others came back from school.
"Jace, you would have been suspended!" Clary exclaimed.
"He was being a complete asshole, you should have let me!" Jace countered.
"Just because he was hitting on Clary does not mean he was being an asshole Jace!" Isabelle shouted.
"Yes it does!" Jace argued.
"This is an incredibly stupid argument." Simon said.
"Agreed." Clary said.
"Hey, Alec, did you ask Magnus about the girl?" Clary asked noticing him standing there.
"Yeah, he said her name was Violet. She a warlock who protects down thing for a while, but she usually doesn't harm anyone unless they try to hurt whoever or whatever she's protecting. In fact she usually kills demons so she would be helping us." Alec explained.
"Ok, but what's with the mask?" Simon asked.
"She pretends to be a mundane by putting a glamour over her horns, but she leaves her face as is, that way no one can identify her." Alec said.
"Damn so she could just be some random person on the street?" Isabelle inquired.
"Pretty much."
"Creepy." Clary said.
"Anyway, settle a feud," Jace said, returning to the argument form before. "If a guy hits on a girl after she says she's not interested, does that make it okay to punch him in the face?"
"No Jace, it makes it okay to verbally abuse him until he goes away, but not worth getting in a fight over!" Isabelle exclaimed.
"I wasn't asking you, Izzy." Jace said and turned back to Alec.
"I'm on Izzy's side with this one Jace." Alec sighed.
Alec's comment brought about another frenzy of arguing and Alec was starting to agree with Magnus calling them children.
