The Jinx- Marvel x Shadowhunters

Part 5- A regular old tuesday

After she had messed up her throw, Lilith had buried Jinx deep in her own mind, trapping her in her subconscious, where she couldn't see what was happening. 

She'd clawed her way out of her mental prison to be met with a physical cage and the shocked expressions of two strangers.

Several more people rushed in. 

"What the hell just happened?!" a man with dark hair in an expensive looking suit asked.

"Nat, you said that you disarmed her!" the blond man that she recognized from the other night said.

"I-I did," the red haired woman replied.

"Well, clearly you didn't," the man in the suit replied, annoyed. Jinx laughed inside, she wanted to speak up, but she did not know who these people were, so she remained silent.

"What is that stuff? Is that black blood?!" Blond stalker asked.

"What are you? An alien?" The african-american man asked her. She just sat there, tracing the voyance rune on her hand.

"What happened to being so cooperative, huh Athena?" he asked her after a few moments.

"Oh, is that the name that she gave you? Hm. Interesting. She wasn't being cooperative. If she was talking, she was playing with you. She likes to play with her food," she told them, continuing to trace the eye on her hand. 

She felt eyes on her and noticed the blond man staring at her rune. Quickly she pulled her sleeve over her hand. Her glamour must have faded. She cursed herself internally. 

"She? Who the hell is She?" suit man demanded. Jinx did not answer.

"Who are you?" Blond man asked her gently. She did not answer again, but she did lift her head, staring deep into his eyes. He did not break eye contact, he was confused, but did not seem intimidated. He simply stared back with a calm silence. It gave her respect for him.

An unhuman roar broke her eye contact. Demons

"Guys suit up. Nat, watch the prisoner. Banner, get a sample of that blood, run some tests on it," Blond man said as he ran out of the room. The others followed, leaving the red haired woman and a man wearing glasses and a lab coat. Jinx stared at the man when the others had left.

"You come in here to take your samples, I'll put a knife through your heart before you make it two steps in," she warned him. He stared at her shocked. He and the other red head, Nat, turned their backs to the glass to talk to each other. 

Jinx took this moment to check her pockets to see what they'd taken. Most of her seraph blades and runed weapons, but she still had a couple of steels in her pockets and a couple hidden daggers all over her body. She grabbed a stele. The glamours on it must have made Nat think it was a simple pen and leave it without a second thought. She quickly drew a persuasion rune on her wrist.

"I'll, um get the tranquilizers," Banner said, walking away quickly, leaving Nat with Jinx. 

"You know, your friends won't beat that thing outside," she said.

"How do you know?" Nat asked.

"Because I know what it is. Their weapons won't even injure it. It will kill them, and then it will come in here and kill you and I," Jinx replied, pulling power from the persuasion rune.

"So, what do I do?" she asked quietly.

"I need you to bring me everything that you took, weapons, pens, microchips, everything. And I need you to hurry; if your friends get hurt, I can't help them," she answered, hoping that the rune would work.
