Angelic Huntress || Shadowhunters [on hiatus]

Make up or Make out?

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Shadowhunters. All rights go to the rightful creators. I do, however, OWN Iliana Aspengold, her lines and any other character that may appear in this story.

The Lightwood siblings and the Aspengolds walked down the stairs to the main room - Iliana keeping a little bit of distance from the male Lightwood, and that didn't go unnoticed by her brother - and walked towards Jace, Clary and Simon, which surprised the brunette seeing him there and felt a little guilty since she didn't respond to the boy's text messages nor she answered his calls.

"What is going on? Why is there a mundane in the Institute?" Asked Alec bitterly, as usual, while glaring at Simon.

The Wayland boy sighed, "A Circle member followed him to get to Clary."

Iliana was about to ask Simon what was he doing in the Institute but was cut off by the red-head, "A Circle rune, just like the guys who took my mother."

"What exactly is a Circle member and why are they trying to kill us?" Simon asked as he processed all the information.

"All we know is a long time ago the Circle led a revolt." The brunette spoke for the first time since they got there.

"A lot of shadowhunters got killed, including my father." Added Jace.

"And since the revolt, we've been forbidden to even hear about the circle." The eldest Lightwood said.

"But, how is that even possible? It's your history." The new Shadowhunter questioned her best friend/sister-figure.

The blonde boy scoffed at the girl's question, "Says the girl who didn't know she was a Shadowhunter."

"Yeah. Yeah, you're right." The eighteen-year-old girl replied. "And now the only person who knows the truth is missing. So I don't care about your rules or what's forbidden, I'm-- There's got to be someone out there who can tell us why they've taken my mother."

"There is." Iliana and Jace said at the same time.

"You coming?" Said the blonde boy this time.

"Yeah."

They all followed Jace towards the training room until the blonde stopped, turned around and pointed at the mundane,

"No, no, no. Not you."

Clary stepped in, "Hey, we're a package deal."

"Yeah." Agreed Simon.

The Wayland pointed towards the training room while he said, "There are runes all over the training room floor that would kill your mundie boyfriend."

"He's not my-" "I'm not like-, we're uh, just friends." Both eighteen-year olds said, at the same time. The two female Shadowhunters, who were watching the commotion from where they were standing near the screens, just smiled at their awkwardness.

"Best friends." Corrected the red-head.

Simon smiled at Clary, "Yeah, and I'm tough. I can handle the runes. So, uh, bring on the runes." He lightly hit Jace's shoulder, to which Iliana chuckled. The boy continued, "What exactly are runes?", as Izzy said to her Parabatai, so only she could hear, that Simon was 'cute'.

After a few moments of silence, Iliana spoke up;

"They give Shadowhunters our demon-fighting powers." And Isabelle showed him the runes with her stele.

He stared at her in awe while mumbling a 'so hot', which got a few reactions: A giggle from Isabelle, a chuckle from Iliana, a glare from Alec, who was standing quietly behind the girls being the usual grumpy-self, a laugh from Nicodem and a clear-throat from Jace. Clary was just watching the commotion.
