Twists and Turns

Sharing the Silence

"There's a Shax demon on the loose" Jace said, pointing on a map he had folded out on the table in front of us all. "He mostly hangs around Pandemonium" I groaned. Of course he hung around that awful bar. I kept staring ahead of me, looking at what Jace and Alec was planning, as a thought came stumbling into my head.

"Wait a second..." I begun and stepped around the table, studying the map. "... Shax are tracking demons, which means, we should find out who it's tracking"

"She's right" Clary agreed, and pointed to the map. "It means,it is most likely tracking someone who is living around pandemonium"Isabelle popped an eyebrow up, and help a mild, surprised look on her face. Alec clenched his jaw, and Jace was silent.

"Who, just who, taught you this?" Jace asked, turning to me. I smiled and lifted my shoulders.

"So I can't be good at remembering things?" I asked back at him,straitening up, crossing my arms over my chest. Jace shifted his look to a critical one, before he knitted his eyebrows together. I smiled an innocent smile at him, before I turned around to the big main screen behind me. I pressed on the location where the club was, and placed a marker on the surrounding apartments around the club in my mind.

"But who is the one being tracked?" Isabelle threw out and ruffled her own hair. I walked back to the table, and placed my finger on six different locations around where the club was. These were apartments where we knew that down worlders lived. Either warlocks or werewolves.

"On these locations I know there are down worlders" I said and smiled again.

"Ok, have you read the list of addresses?" Alec asked, clearly not happy with me trying to help. I popped my eyebrow up, before I leaned closer to him, my arms crossed over my chest.

"Only the useful ones" I said, and walked over to a chair further away from the group. "But if diva Alec don't want help, then I will sit here" I said, and leaned back in my chair. Alec said nothing,while Isabelle gave him a death glare. Jace and Clary groaned, and looked at each other, before giving Alec a hopeless look.

I smirked, and spun around in the chair, turning my back to them. I heard Isabelle ask Alec to behave and treat me like one of them. But as usual, he didn't trust "new ones", so he refused to apologize to me. Instead Alec said he was going to go and rune some of the arrows, while Isabelle made a half roar, and Clary and Jace had supported their foreheads in their hands.

"You sure you don't wanna come with us?" Isabelle asked, giving me a saddened look. I smiled and shook my head.

"No, go you, I will call you if I detect any and all activities"I said and mentioned for the monitors in front of me, where I had a overlook over all of New York and that would alert me of all and any unusual demon activity. Isabelle nodded shortly again, and I watched them leave together. I turned to the monitors, keeping track of them.

"Aren't you going to go?" Hodge said from behind me. I chuckled and turned to face him.
