Magnus's pov

Magnus looked around. It has been what, a few months since he last saw Alicante? Alec was hurt, Jace nearly killed... And they still had the kids. For the first time in his life, Magnus wanted the Shadowhunter's help. Sebastian, Aline, Helen, Emma, Julian, Jia, Maryse, Robert, everyone. Max and Alec were his world. Imagine living with only a part of your world. All along, Magnus only wanted to live happily with his family. Only that. He could have lived with no magic, with no Clary, Jace, Izzy... But not without Max and Alec.
Magnus looked at the city while his black hair moved with the wind. He was wearing a pink t-shirt, a pair of black jeans, purple boots and a matched purple coat. His cat eyes were shadowed. His lips were dry. His face was white. Magnus had never been so... Sad. So desperate. So angry.
Jace walked to Magnus's side.
-So. Are we going or... I don't want to be weird, but why don't we do something...
-Don't be insensitive, Jace, snapped Alec. We need time to... Process the information. We're gonna have the kids back.
Alec was looking at Magnus. He was looking the same. His blue eyes were hiding shadows, his red lips were dry, his face was paler than usual. You could see that his frame was shaking if you concentrated on it long enough.
-Why so angry?
Jace turned.
-Sebastian?
-Missed me?
Sebastian didn't wait for an answer.
-I heard you lost the kids. I'm here to help. Thanks for calling me, he added to Clary.
-You called him, asked Simon, furious.
-Well, obviously. He's not the bad guy anymore, don't you understand? He's my brother. If you don't want him here, then I'll go back with him. But don't act like he's here to kill us, okay?
Simon nodded. Jace and Sebastian led the way to Valentine's old house.
The small house looked old. A big tree was near it. And a river. Jace looked at Sebastian. This is where Clary's brother first died.

Izzy's pov

Clary went to check in the bedroom with Jace while Alec and Magnus were trying to destroy whatever spell the Circle used to hide the kids. Izzy, Sebastian and Simon were looking for secret traps or something. Finally, Magnus went in the house to see Izzy.
-There was only one spell, he said. I destroyed it.
-Which spell was it?
-A glamour one.
-How come we could see the house? Was the spell already broken?
-No. I am not sure, but I think it was because Sebastian and Jace already knew the house existed. So, found anything?
Izzy was going to answer when suddenly, Clary ran towards them.
-We found the kids!
The gang followed Clary to the bedroom. She pushed the bed. A trap was underneath it. Jace pushed the trap open. Alec got in, followed by Magnus, Simon, Izzy, Clary and Jace. Sebastian stayed out.
What Izzy saw first was a big cage. Three kids were in it. One with short red hair and gold eyes, one with long blond hair and green eyes and one with blue skin and two little horns on top of his head.
-Amy! Stephen!
Clary and Jace ran towards their kids. Amy was sobbing. Her red hair was tainted with blood, her clothes apart. Stephen was in his corner, his face purple and yellow and blue... Izzy's eyes were on Max. His hands were attached to the wall, his chest was in blood, his hair were dripping with blood too... Alec looked like he was on the verge of screaming. He ran to Max and Magnus broke the rope. Jace had Amy in his arms. Clary was helping Stephen walk.
Simon approached Izzy.
-Hey. *he sighted* Izzy. You know, with all of what's going on, I would understand if you would like to put the wedding to...
-No, no. Our lives are messed up right now. And honestly, the wedding is the only thing that is keeping me from going in my room and never coming out. Simon... Our wedding is, and when I say this, I talk for everyone, the silver lining. It is the light at the end of the tunnel that is our lives right now.
Her fiancé turned to face her.
-Yeah?
-Don't you dare think I have any regrets on this. I love you, Simon Lewis. And this baby is going to be the happiest baby of the world. Because she is going to have you for a father.
-Wait. Did you say "she"?
Izzy took an innocent look.
-No. I said "she as in... The belly?
-Izzy!
-Um... Yeah. Okay. I overheard Clary and Alec talking about our baby as a "she". I know, it was suppose to be a surprise, but... Catarina Loss did an ultrasound. You know with gel on my belly... Yeah, well, I told her to tell Clary and Clary told Alec, who told Jace and Jace told Magnus by accident and Magnus told some warlock in ABC Avenue and Wess told Julian and Julian told Emma, who told Maia and Bat, who told...
-Okay, got it. So basically, everyone knows except me?
-Well now you know.
-Who is Wess?
Izzy sighed, disappointed.
-Simon! I told you! It was the warlock in ABC Avenue. Were you following at all?!?
Simon looked stunned. "And I'm marrying her", he though.
