"Jace what are we going to do?" The red headed woman asked the blonde man. Both of whom Lena had just seen in Alicante earlier. She had a definite scared look plastered on her face.
"Well Clary," the man Lena now knows as Jace turned around and faced her. "We promised no matter what happens we will stay together and I'm not going anywhere." Clary's face then relaxed into a much more peaceful expression she then came up to Jace and hugged him tightly.
"I love you so much Jace," she whispered.
"And I love you too Clary," he replied as he hugged her back.

Lena then awoke, breathing much heavier than normal.
"Why am I dreaming about them people know?" She thought to herself. She got up and was about to make her way back to the Institute, but she then make a shocking discovery; she wasn't in Idris anymore. Instead she was locked up in some small room.
"Well, she's not dead," a male voice spoke out. She whipped around to where it came from an discoved a red headed boy the same age as her in one corner.
"How long have I been here?" Lena asked as she sat up.
"A few days actually," the boy replied. "We've been here a little bit longer." He motioned towards two other boys across the room. Both were a bit older than her. One looked like he had some sort of Asian in him and the other was extremely pale with light colored hair. The only thing that wasn't pale about him was his green eyes.
"They're names are Eric and Samuel Stormshadow." The boy explained. "My name is Matthew Fairlight, but I go by Matt."
"My name is Lena Goldthorn," she said. "I come from the Alicante Institute."
"We come from the Honolulu Institute," Eric finally spoke. "My parents adopted Sam when he first came there. Since then we've been like brothers. We're even parabatai." He then lifted up the sleeve of his jacket and exposed his permanent rune.
"Well," Matt started. "Since we might be here a while, I guess we can get to know each other. I came from the Paris Institute. I was originally in the London Institute where I was adopted. After my parents died I have been bounced around all sorts of Institutes. This has been the longest one so far."
"I've been at the Alicante Institute since I was two. I take the name of Goldthorn because I don't know my birth name." Lena said
"Yeah," Matt agreed. "I never knew mine either. I sometimes get old memories of them, but nothing to really go on."

"So," Eric started as he paced the room. "Anyone know why we're here?"
"At first I suspected it was for downworlders or something," Sam replied. "After all my birth mother was fae, but with everyone else I'm not so sure."
"Well there has to-"
"Children," a male voice spoke out as a hooded figure approached the jail like wall. "You have been chosen for certain experiments."
"Experiments?" Asked Matt.
"Yes because whether you all know it or not you're all connected," the figure continued to speak. " What better subjects for my masters to test with." The figure then pulled the nearest person towards him, which was Eric and injected him with an unknown substance. After leaving Eric shaking on the ground, he walked away.
"I have bad feeling about this," said Sam.
