A Shadowhunter's Connection

Chapter 41

Chapter 41

Jace had his armed wrapped around me while my head laid on his chest. "You know, we really should check with Alec and everyone. Valentine is still out there," I said.

He sighed, "I know. I can't wait till this is over with and I can just lay here with you without a fear or worry."

I looked up at him, sitting my chin on my hand, "We wouldn't be Shadowhunters then."

"You know Shadowhunters don't spend every day out killing things," Jace chuckled.

"Really? Could have fooled me," I said, acting fake surprised. Both of us laughed at our words before the door to our bedroom opened, causing Jace and I to pull away from each other and look at the intruder.

Alec, Clary, and Izzy had stormed in, Clary saying to Izzy, "Told you they were doing it."

"What's wrong?" Jace asked, worried.

"Aerial Sensors went off. Wraith demon in the middle of the city," Alec said.

Jace and I nodded, Jace saying, "Alright, let us get dressed and we'll meet you there."

They nodded, leaving Jace and I alone again. "Yeah, defiantly not fighting bad guys every day," I mocked as I through on my clothes. Jace did the same before we used a portal to get to the streets of the city.

A dragon like demon is flying over the city, circling around an intersection and ducking behind buildings.

"I've never seen a demon like that," Izzy said in shock.

"Are we sure it's not a dragon," I said, half joking.

"On our six," Jace said, causing us to face in his direction. Alex shot an arrow, just missing it. It circles around a building before coming right for us.

"Alec," Clary said as he pulls his bow back. He waits until it's near us before shooting it. The demon dissolves into different parts that splatter onto the ground.

Clary smiled, "Nice."

Suddenly, the different parts came to life and turn into several little demons. They all scatter going up building and down into the sewers.

"They're splitting up," Alec said. "Notify all available personnel to keep a look out."

Izzy pulled out her phone to notify the Shadowhunters while Clary's phone rang. She answers it, pausing for a moment before hanging up and looking at everyone. "That was Magnus, Valentine's on his way to Idris."

"What? How?" I asked, shocked.

"He made a deal with the Seelie Queen. Magnus and Luke warned all the other Downworld leaders."

Jace cursed under his breath, causing Alec to look at him. "Hey, he won't get to the lake. Malachi's army is armed and waiting for him."

I spoke up, "We need to warn them. Who knows how many Circle members will be there."

Izzy shook her head, "If we lower the wards, these demons could get out, spread beyond the city."

"Maybe we don't have to lower them. Maybe my Portal rune can pierce the wards."

"We can't all go. The demons need to be dealt with," Alec said.

Jace spoke up, "If Clary opens the portal for us, Faith and I will go while you three take care of these beasts before they hurt someone."

I nodded in agreement, causing Clary to walk up to me. "Be careful."

"Always," I smile, hugging her before stepping back.
