SHADOWHUNTERS: THE LEGACY

A DOOR IN THE DARK

~ 2 DAYS LATER ~

I was on my to talk with Jace when I saw him talking with someone.

"I can't wait to get out and start killing Downworlders"

"Trust me, it's not as glorious as you think" I said from behind them.

"Screw glory, I want justice" the mundane scoffed."I lost my father because of these monsters. Valentine said, if the clave did their job, my father would still be alive"

"Valentine's-" I was immediately cut off when Valentine approached us.

"Jace, Alana, I see you've both met Jeremy" he says, then turns to Jeremy."The others are gearing up for tonight's mission. You should get ready"

"Mission? What mission?" I asked, getting as much info as I can.

"Part of our first phase. While we're busy increasing in numbers, we're also finding suitable Downworlders to use for research" I looked at him in pure disgust.

Those people may be downworlders, but they don't deserve that kind of treatment.

"You two should join them. They could use a good leader like you two"

"Thanks, but no thanks. I don't lead hunts for innocent Downworlders" I said.

"Innocent? Like that vamp, Maria? Who almost killed Jace? Don't be naive, Alana. See, you were trained to see Downworlders as your allies and me as your enemy, but I'm not asking you to do this for me... I'm asking you for humanity" all his words were beginning to sink in to me and it's making me very confused.

Was Valentine really misunderstood all along?

I then felt a hand on my shoulder. I wasn't shocked, knowing it was only Jace behind me.

"She already said, no" Jace spat before she pulled me away with him.

"Ahh, there you are" Valentine said as I made my way towards him.

"Whose this?" I asked, standing beside Jace who had a blade in his hand.

"The killer of Jeremy's father" Valentine grinned, then turned to Jace."Bring Jeremy's father justice"

"No, please" the female wolf said as she struggled to get out of the two new shadowhunters grip.

"How can you be so sure that she was the wolf that attacked his dad?" I asked.

"Five years ago, my father was mauled to death by a white wolf" Jeremy stated. Jace sighed and brought his blade up the the female wolf's neck.

"No, I've never killed anyone. I swear. I'm telling the truth" the wolf sobbed.

"Oh, come on, there are plenty of white wolfs around. You can't just blame it on a random wolf who happens to be white" I scoffed.

"She may not have been the one who attacked my father, but that doesn't mean she didn't have any victims before"

"Please don't kill me. I've obeyed the accords. I'm part of Luke's pack. We don't hurt anyone. We're not like that" the wolf pleaded for her life.

"Jace!" I looked to the side and saw Clary running towards us.

"Clarissa, how nice of you to join us. Perhaps you can convince your brother to finish what he started" Valentine said, not knowing she wasn't under the spell anymore.
