Cheryl's apartment

Night time

Allison's POV
I was walking and walking, still got nothing.... finally I sighed, to show I was giving up. Jace walks in and looks around "well?" I shook my head. "I don't get it..... I've looked everywhere, we literally tore this apartment apart" I groan out putting my hands to my eyes... Jace strokes his chin thinking.... "Maybe it's not where you could see it... what if, it's hidden in plan sight?"

I groan again when he went all poetic. "I don't get it....." I clapped my hands together"Just because something isn't right in front of you, doesn't mean it's not there" Then I started to think.... Jace was right. I scoffed straight after "Cheryl was the best at hiding things..... Especially for my birthday, she would never let me know what my present was and always hid it...." I let out.

I look up at Jace and realized something... "Jace find to most hollow wall you can find here!" I ordered as I walked away from him and started to look around. Cheryl's smart and she knew that I would figure it out.

2 minutes later and Jace calls me out. "All, I think I found it" I walk out of the front door and to her bedroom. "You have it?" I asked as Jace stood in front of Cheryls room where her bed was and nods "Think so" I took a deep breath "okay... Good" I switch off the lights as Jace makes a weird face. "Turning of the lights isn't really romantic if you can't see anything" he joked as I rolled my eyes and giggled. "Okay.... but why the hollow wall?" I giggled "you said what if, it could be hidden in plan sight? And that just because it's not right in front of us, doesn't mean it's not there" Jace smirked "What you thinkin?" I looked at the hollow wall and sighed looking at all angles "I need you to make your Seraph blade, to glow" He makes a confused face but did what I asked as he pulls out his blade and activities it.

Starts from the top and went to the very end..... Rune symbols were drawn on both sides as he looks at me and I nod. He puts his blade closer to the wall, just enough to see something appear on... The blade glowed bright blue, almost white as words started to appear. Slowly, Jace kept moving his blade to the side with more words forming but it wasn't English.

Eventually he finished but kept the blade activated until we could read the writing. "It's, in Latin.....any idea what it says?" I let out. Jace smirked "one thing a young Shadowhunter learns....." I rolled my eyes and smiled as he began to read. "ubi fulget animae et dimisit cordis est, non inveniet te et potestatem, quae non est numerus"

When he read that.... I knew what it meant... "where the heart is released and the soul glows, there you will find the power that is untold" I let out softy. He puts his blade away "Huhhhhh so, you do know Latin" he joked. I rolled my eyes "I can't.... But I heard this before"

Jace says in a shock tone "where?" "When we were little..... Our mom's would tell us that when we had these treasure hunts" I let out. "And....." He asked "And.... It took awhile but we found it.... Sometimes buried or in a little box, carved into something"
