destined angel (on hold)

dead mans party -1 

"damn it." I say as I climb my way back down. "Split second too late." I warp my arms around Alec's waist when I hit the floor and bury my head in his chest. 

"we need to get back to the institute." Alec says as his arms wrap around me and hold me close. "It's not safe here." I nod as we all walk back to the van and I hear Clary say she'll drive as i close my eyes while sitting on Alec's lap and drifting off to sleep. 

-----------------

"We have to report to the Clave." is the first thing I hear when I wake up fully refreshed. "they have to know what we've learnt about Valentine." 

"What that he's our father. Great, fine tell them but what good does that do Simon?" Clary says and i sigh and jump out of Alec's arms. 

"Clary, its all connected, the vamps want the cup." Jace points out. 

"Why, it makes new Shadowhunter's?" Clary asks dumbly. 

"Nobody wants valentine forming an army loyal to himself." I point out like its the most obvious thing in the world. 

"Plus it controls demons." Izzy points out and I point at her.

"Exactly, cup equals power meaning if Valentine has the cup downworlders are in danger while if the vamps have it they can control demons to help protect themselves, it's all about power in the end." I say with a sigh as I lean against the wall.

"The vampires will propose a trade, Simon for the cup." Jace says as he rest his hand on my shoulder.

I slide down the wall and hold my head in my hands trying to think of a plan. "So Vampires will trade Simon for the cup and Valentine will trade my mother for the cup. Either way I loose someone I love. What if I just throw it up in the air and let them fight it out amongst themselves." I know Clary is joking, but I still think it over.

"Wouldn't work. They wouldn't bring hostages with them so we'd just loose them both, also we don't know where to find Valentine so there is not pijt in throwing it in the air. There's also the issue that we have no idea where the cup is so again wouldn't work." They all ignore me as I ramble to myself.

"So this doesn't matter to you." Alec says to Clary and I chuckle slightly trying to stay serious.

"Yes of course it matters." Clary shouts and I look up at them. "Listen, when you saved our lives I put my trust in you, now I need you to put your trust in me."

"In us." I add.

"I can't turn into what you are overnight." Clary continues.

"It's true, they were raised as mundanes."

"What are you her spokesman now?" Alec asked and I smirk lightly and lean up head against his leg where he stands next to me on the wall.

"We don't need a spokesman, we need a plan." I say before standing up and following after Clary as she walks over to the screens.

"Look at all this stuff, these screens, I mean can any of this help me find Simon?" Clary asks as we follow her around the room. "Where is his anyway, some kind of crypt in transylvania?" I chuckle as we all stand around a table.

"Actually no, that was Camiles outfit right, their locals." I raise my eyebrow and sit down. I may act childlike and clingy but I can be serious too you know.

"They're at the hotel Du'Mort down on grandsmorth." Izzy said as she sat on the table.

"And we came back here, why we have to go there let's go." Now even I know that's a stupid plan.

"We need a Clave resolution for that." Alec points out making me sigh.

"The five of us can't declare war on the vamps all by ourselves." Izzy stated.

"And we can't react without considering our options." Alec follows on and I begin to zone out of the conversation. I stead scanning the room before grabbing a forest and begin drawing on the paper on the table. I draw a man with fangs and blood dripping down his lips, a vampire. I stare at it for a moment before Alec taps my shoulder and we head out.

We go to this cemetery where we begin looking for this woman's grave, Mary Miligan.

I continue to Zone out their conversations and instead walk out and search for Mary Miligan. I notice Izzy leave but don't bother questioning it until I hear Alec call for Jace and I begin to head over in their direction.

However when I realise they are having an argument I head over to Clary just before she finds the grave. "beloved servant who wants that kn a headstone?" Clary asks making me chuckle, not me that's for sure.

"Someone who is in service yo a cause greater than themselves." Alec says as they walk around the tomb.

"At least she is now, Abracadabra." Jace says and I smirk.

"Wait you people actually say that."

"No Clary, we don't." Jace says before he runs his stele over the symbol on the tomb and j watch in amazement as they open it only to find weapons instead of a body.

I stare for a moment before reaching in and touching one only to jerk back when my palms begin to burn lightly, I wince more in shock than pain before a large gold staff with wierd symbols appears in my hands. I go to pull away only for it to split in two and reveal blades and a twist of my arm and it reveals on on either end of teh two pieces before coming back together. "What the-" I say shocked.

"It's the power of an angels blessing, guess you won't be needing any of these then." Jace says with a smile before turning to Alec as I admire the weapon in my hands.

"I gotta go." I hear Alec say and I look up.

"I'll come with." I say as I skip and grab onto Alec's arm.

"How are you going to get back in the institute?" Jace asks.

"I'll go in that back, they won't bother me if I'm alone and no-one will question Lina, she's the angels blessing." I smile when he says that for some reason feeling good about myself.

"Good go, I'll finish up here." Jace responds before turning to me and pulling me into a hug. "be safe okay."

I lean up and peck his cheek. "You too." Before walking off. Alec follows me shortly after exchanging a few more words with Jace and we head back to the institute in calm quiet.
