Author's Note: Nin hao! I have basically been sick all day. Yeah it's just bunches of fun and rainbows. I have done nothing all day but read fanfiction and write it. Anywho here's the next chapter. Might not be the best seeing as I'm about to throw up.
Magnus had just enough time to see the flash in her eyes before seventy plus years of battle instincts kicked in. She met Alec halfway across the room in seconds. Magnus had always thought of Nephilim as the most graceful creatures he had ever seen, more graceful than even vampires.
He was wrong.
She seemed to know what Alec was doing even before he himself didn't so much as walk or lunge as she did float towards him. Alec lasted a total of five seconds before he hit the floor. Alec's eyes turned towards Magnus and Magnus's name formed on his lips. Her stygian sword moved towards his throat with incredible speed.
"Stop, please."shouted Magnus. The sword stopped just before it pierced the skin of his throat. Both of them breathed hard as they stared at Magnus. Or rather as Alec stared at Magnus. Katherine knew better than to get detracted. Slowly, she moved the sword away from his throat and stepped back. Magnus rushed over and gathered a stunned Alec into his arms.
"Oh baby are you okay? I thought I lost you Alec, oh gods above what possessed you to do that? I thought for sure that she was gonna kill you. You stupid, stupid Nephilim. How-"he continued on this way whispering in Alec's ear. Katherine was obviously getting annoyed though.
"As touching as this little scene is, I'm afraid I'll have to interrupt. This little mishap has caused a little change in plans. Magnus, I'm aware that you have connections with Raphael Santiago. Tell Jace to go have a little conversation with him. The big step is coming,but this section of my plan must be taken slowly. As for your lover," she gestured at Alec." He will have my protection. You love him dearly enough to face my wrath. That is something not many can say. And this is for you." She tossed two small pins at his feet. "One is for your...charming...Nephilim the other is for Jace. Be sure they get to their respected persons." She turned away and the shadows darkened around her. Hellfire flashed and she was gone. Alec looked up at Magnus's tear stained face.
"Who the Hell was that?"
Author's Note: Sorry about this one. It's not the best because my sister is babysitting. AKA she is getting paid while I watch the kid. Fun. I might get the other up today but no promises.
