Rose woke up with a start, reaching up to rub her head of the memories. She was only a child when it all happened. It was like she could remember and barley remember every detail.

She threw her legs out of the covers and put her head in her hands. She stayed like that for a while, going over every detail of the dream. Every word she could understand.

Of course she remembered her saviors because they practically raised her. Her adoptive mother, Beth who took her in and later her husband Edge who would train with her.

She could see Rey and Eddie in that memory, but the only image she was was Rey holding Eddie in his arms, always crying. That was never the Rey she saw during training or when she'd talk with Dominick.

The sun was out shining through her window. Rays of it hit her skin, letting her see the black runs of the defence and voyence rune on her hands.

One of the Institutes cats was sleeping on her bed, like a furry blob. He sat up and looked at her with his big cat eyes.

"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you" she said pushing her hair back behind her ears.

A knock came on her door and hastily she ran around her room to find every piece of armor that she needed. She forgot she was going to spare with Becky in the morning.

The knocking continued until she yelled out she was coming and a muffled chuckle could be heard behind the door. She opened the door in a hurry still fastening the black armor to her wrists.

"Well don't you look fresh?" She said with a slight smile, "kind of look like you went head first into a bush after taking some lashins".

"I'm fine" Rose said, leaning against the door frame, "Don't you look nice?"

"Agh it's just a little present from Seth. No big deal" Becky said, her hand reaching the necklace she was referencing.

"I missed your birthday didn't i?" Rose asked, her hand falling from the door.

"No no" she said, "Now get your arse out here. I'm supposed to be training you".

Rose rolled her eyes, but followed her to the training area.

"There's nothing here like I said" Dean said, his arms crossed, "I'm not an idiot. I know how to clear a place".

"Oh yeah?" Seth said crossing his arms, "you sure it's not one of your lunatic crazes".

Seth laughed as Dean rolled his eyes.

"Dean's right" Roman said, "if there was something here it would have shown itself to us".

"Right... it would have seen three unassuming Shadowhunters and passed on the opportunity to take us out" Seth said, "Great analysis but you're missing a vital part of information".

"And what's that?" Roman asked, tilting his head slightly.

"Downworlders hate us" Seth said, "We all know they would violate the accords just to hurt us.... or kill us".

"Says the downworlder of the group" Dean said.

He leaned against a wooden beam, but soon retreated when the beam moved a bit.

"I'm still a shadowhunter" Seth said.

"Sounds like you hate downworlders" Roman said as he looked up at the ceiling.
