I hope you like this chapter! The idea of it goes all to Axes Tridents and Snares! I edited it a bit and added a few parts, but the basic idea was by her! So thank you :D

I own nothing!

Isabelle burst through the room when Alec didn't answer to her knocks. She had grown impatient of waiting outside while everything was crumbling down for her….and it was probably crumbling down for her siblings as well. She didn't want to think about the others' reactions to the news…They had been quiet shocking when she saw them. She didn't see the complete new. She had just seen the advance of what they were going to talk after the commercials on E! , but she couldn't wait to find out what they said…What she heard was enough. They had revealed about Jace's father, about Alec's relationship, and about her own past…She didn't know how all of it had come out in the light, and she didn't want to find out. She had run to get to Alec's. Simon wasn't home at that moment, and she was glad…She didn't want him knowing about it. But she guessed he would find out anyways, and as coward as it made her look, she didn't want to be there when he found out. She needed her brother…Jace was probably with Clary, obviously had heard the news already, but she needed Alec. Alec was her older and protective brother. He knew everything about her and he always knew how to make her feel better.

She, however, was not expecting seeing him on the verge of tears when she walked into his apartment. Part of her expect him to be in his apartment doing what he always does, oblivious of the news, but that obviously was not the case. The TV was on and she cringed when she saw the channel it was on – E!.

Alec was sitting on the sofa in front of the TV. The remote control was on the floor, and Alec had his face on his hands, facing away from her and the TV.

"Alec?" Izzy asked quietly, concern clear in her voice.

Alec looked up, giving her a brief look, and then turning to stare at the wall above the TV. He had his hands fisted so hard his knuckles were turning white.

"Alec" Izzy repeated walking closer to him "Please say something"

Alec still didn't react. He kept staring at the white ball his eyes distant. The TV seemed to have gone mute…no one was paying attention to it. The show as back on, but they were now talking about a completely different story…maybe ruining someone else's life.

"ALEC!" Izzy cried "YOU LOOK AT ME RIGHT NOW!"

Alec finally looked up, a bit startled by his sister's reaction. He expected to see an angry expression on her face, but instead her face showed nothing but a hurt expression. She had mascara running down her cheeks and her eyes were red and puffy…her usual confident and sassy expression was not changed into a completely broken one.

"Did you saw it?" Alec asked quietly "Did you hear all they said?"

"I just heard they were going to talk about it" Izzy shook her head "But I heard enough"

"I stopped listening" Alec said turning to look back at the wall "When they started talking about me and Magnus"

"They said all about us" Izzy said her voice going a few notes higher and cracking when she started talking again "M-My twitter exploded…Everyone is sending me hate…"

"Oh Izzy" Alec said standing up and going to hug her tightly against his chest "Is….Is it true? About when you were sixteen?"

Izzy just nodded and let more tears fall down her cheeks. Alec sighed hugging her even tighter against him and bringing her over to the sofa so they could sit down. She continued crying while Alec whispered small comfort in her ears until she calmed down enough to talk.

"I was with Merlion" She started quietly "I was stupid and foolish…W-We went to a party and I got drunk…He took advantage of me"

"Oh Izzy" Alec sighed sadly as he cleaned the tears away from Izzy's eyes

"I couldn't keep it Alec" She said miserably "I had to do it…I couldn't take care of it"

"I know" Alec said "I understand…."

"I never told anyone" Izzy continued, her cries now sobered "I only told dad…but only because I had to…He told me I had to abort, and I agreed"

"Izzy…you don't say…"

"He did it" Isabelle said pulling away from her brother's embrace "He was the only one who knew about me…Mom would never reveal our secrets like that…It had to be him!"

Izzy stood up and started pacing in front of the sofa. She kept ranting about how it was all their father's fault and how he had ruined their life.

Alec didn't want to believe it had been his father…as much as the man had hurt him, he was still his father. His blood! He couldn't sell his own kids like that…he wouldn't dare…but the more Alec thought about it, the more he started to believe it.

"He ruined us!" Izzy cried new tears running down her eyes "He sold out stories…He told everyone about Jace and his father…and about m-me…a-and you and M-Mag…"

She trailed off… her body shaking as new sobs came. Alec's heart broke as he saw his little sister crying like that…She was usually the strong one, the one who could deal with everything that was thrown at her. The only time Alec had seen her crying like this was when Max had died…and that had been Alec's fault too…

"I'm sorry Is" Alec said his voice cracking. He stood up and went to hug her once more "This wouldn't have happened if I hadn't been at the house…I-If I hadn't….Magnus…I'm so sorry"

"No" Izzy said breaking apart to look at Alec in the eyes "Don't you dare blame yourself! It isn't your fault!"

"It is!" Alec exclaimed "I killed Max…I got myself kicked out of the house…if I hadn't none of this would have happened"

"First of all, you didn't kill Max!" Izzy snapped "And if you hadn't come out to our parents you would have lived unhappy and you would have never met Magnus"

"Because of me all this happened!" Alec cried "Because of what I am…It is all my fault!"

"If we're going to point out faults…then let's blame me!" Izzy cried "I was stupid to get an abortion once….and I was stupid enough to get pregnant once again"

"Oh Izzy" Alec murmured

"Would you stop saying that?" Izzy sighed looking down at her hands that were placed in her stomach "Mom told me to never give my heart away…that it was breakable…And I-I promised a-and now I'll be a teenage mom a-and I c-can't….y-you'll t-think…."

"Oh no Is…look at me" Alec said softly. Izzy looked up at her brother and sniffed sadly "I love you…Jace loves you…Max did and still does. We would never think any less of you, ok?"

"B-but…I was careless…"

"We all make mistakes" Alec said "You were there for me and I'll be here for you…now tell me, does Simon know you're pregnant? It is his, right?"

"Of course it is his" Izzy sniffed "and I haven't told him…he probably already knows, though…it is all over the news"

"It's alright….It's going to be alright" Alec said reassuringly "Simon will understand"

"I'm so scared" Izzy whispered "I….I love him"

"And there's nothing wrong with that" Alec said "I'm sure he loves you back and he'll be there for you always…"

Izzy sniffed one more time and wrapped her arms tightly around Alec. She hugged her brother as if her life depended on that, feeling secure and safe in his arms. It reminded her of when she was a little girl…Often, when she was barely old enough to be left out of the sight of any adult. When she was scared of hurt Alec would always be there for her. He would always take care of her, hug her tight, and make her tears disappear.

Just then they both realized how much they depended on each other. How much they were still breakable like they were when they were younger. How they still needed protection and reassurance from each other.

At that moment Alec didn't dare think about what was coming. He didn't want to worry about his own problem. He still had to face the world and talk about his and Magnus relationship…but not yet. Not now when his sister needed him the most. She was still his little sister, the baby girl he had sworn to protect and he was going to keep that promise. He wasn't going to stand there and let her world crumble down…he wasn't going to let their own father destroy him, or her, or Jace…He was going to fight back. Because he couldn't just sit there and do nothing, he had to stand and protect his family.

"I got a plan" he said suddenly "But we have to call Magnus and Jace"
