They reached Devils Tavern as more downworlders came flooding in. Will and Zach pushed their way to the front to find Linette standing in the middle of it with a drink in her hand.

"Come on who's next."

A young warlock stepped forward with white hair and purple eyes. He looked a little nervous when a warlock with green skin yelled, "Come on Malcolm, don't let this little chit scare you."

Malcolm seemed to gain some confidence, but it was short lived. The second he took a step towards Linette his legs were swept out from underneath him.

She laughed, the laugh wasn't sincere, it was full of mockery. The boy stood up again this time with green fire in his hands, he pushed his hands forward causing Linette to fly backwards.

She hit a large oak faro table with a sickening crunch.

Will took a step into the circle with his blade drawn; he pointed it at that warlock, "I think we have had enough of that."

The green warlock stepped into the circle now, "You have no business here shadowhunter, this is just some downworld fun."

Will looked at Linette, who was just standing up, "She's not a downworlder, she is Nephilim. Isn't that right Miss Lightwood?"

She just scowled at him, her eyes started to darken. "Lightwood? As in Gabriel Lightwood?"

Linette looked at the green warlock, "As in Benedict Lightwood, daddy had a bad habit of keeping strange company, I guess I was the outcome."

Will still had his blade pointed at the young warlock when it flew from his hand. He looked around in shock to find blue flames, Magnus. Linette must have noticed Magnus as well because she threw her hands down and the room filled with black shimmering smoke.

By the time the room cleared she was gone, "Dammit."

"Will, maybe she doesn't want to be found."

"Shut up Zach, this is all your fault, just go home and tell the I am still looking."

Zach just nodded and left the tavern. He turned to Malcolm and the green warlock, "I am sorry for disrupting your evening, but I need your help."

The green warlock just smirked, "Why would we help you?"

"Because my name is William Carstairs and I am trying to save the love of my life before she destroys herself."

By the mention of his name Magnus walked over, "I'm sorry for my friends horrible attitude, what did you say your name was?"

"William Carstairs, you and my father were friends once, and I believe you are still friends with William Herondale?"

Magnus looked at the green one who just shook his head, "We will help you."


As the four of them were walking down the street something clicked in Will's mind, "You're Malcolm Fade aren't you?"

The boy nodded, "You've heard of me?"

"Oh, yes you are the High Warlock of Las Angeles in my time, and a good friend of my uncles."

"You hear that Ragnor? I am going to be a High Warlock."

So that was the green warlock's name. Malcolm was grinning from ear to ear, when Magnus asked, "What do you mean by your time?"

"Well, the demon Lilith sent us 150 years back in time in some sick attempt to hurt Linette. It's working so with, with the help of my Parabatai, she will burn down the whole country before Christmas."

"Time travel is impossible." Was all Ragnor said.

"Not if you are the queen of Edom apparently." Magnus added.

"Prove to us you are from the future." Ragnor said, "Tell us some stuff about ourselves."

Will cleared his throat, "Well Malcolm, you are the High Warlock of Las Angeles, that's a city in America. You were at my parents wedding, and you saved my uncles from Edom."

"One doesn't just go to Edom on a whim. One doesn't go to Edom period. There is no way to get there."

Ragnor did still not believe that Will was from the future. "There was, is, a passage way to Edom in the Seelie Court. Now back to your lives, Magnus. You are happily married with two kids, twins, Camilla Grace and Max Gabriel Lightwood."

Magnus choked a bit, " A LIGHTWOOD?"

"Yes Magnus a Lightwood, the Consul to be precise."

Magnus nodded with a smirk, "Powerful, what I like in a woman."

Will seemed a bit shocked, "Uh Magnus, Alec isn't a women."

"I marry a man?"

"Does that surprise you?"

He shrugged, "Not really, I just never thought a Shadowhunter would marry a man, let alone a warlock."

"He was of the first of the nephilim to be openly gay, and he helped so many others with his bravery. Linette, she was raised by to mothers, one of them part Fae."

"Impressive but that doesn't explain her ability to knock a warlock right off his feet."

"Well, she was raised by shadowhunters, but she is actually the child of Lilith."

"You know 'warlock' is less of a mouthful." Ragnor said, still sounding bored.

"No you don't understand, she is the child of Lilith. She is her daughter; she is half shadowhunter half demon. She got both traits, magic and the ability to bare ruins."

"Incredible."

"Yes it is, but she is being tormented by Lilith, I fear she may destroy herself, if we can't save her."

"Come on then, let's go find her."
