Nephilim ↠ Shadowhunters

Changed

Change happens its inevitable.

Sage changed she had to, she had this power in her that sometimes the void inside her was so powerful that she forgot that she was good, she was a good person at heart. But what good does that do when the people you love, the person you love s in danger. 

Watching Jace being taken away from her hurt, it hurt because she had the power to fight, to fight him and she couldn't, she couldn't put him in more risk then he was in that moment, and then to be faced with the chance to join to join Valentine was too much for her so she run. Left a note and run. 

And now a couple months later she is seating here in the bar downing what seems to be her 10th shot, se felt the void slip away. She was crushed by the feeling of betrayal, anger and fear of what might happen. Valentine had destroyed anything good about any of all this.. 

3rd May 2016

It was cold, colder than it should have been at this time of the month, but Sage couldn't feel it, with the one to two drinks she had. Turning down the alley way a cold feeling washed through her veins, and the pain in her head increased, "Rose, rose where are you?" a melodic voice rang through her head, "Rose his coming, you have to run" the voice said. Sage looking around, she was in the oh so familiar forest near her house. "Momma" the little girl in front of her said, the light shining made it visible it was her but her younger former self was facing away. "Sage his coming" the voice changed it was almost like a howl. The Images changed and showed this dark haired boy facing away from her, his build similar to Jace's. "Jace?" sh questioned. Before she could even get a reply a cold, dark feeling washed over her, like it was turning the blood in her veins to ice. 

And then she was back in the alley way removing her hands from her head she looked up in front of her, was stood Valentine. "Why Rosie its really nice to see you again." Clenching her jaw she let her eyes focus on him. "What do you want?" her voice was clear and cold. "I want to make an offer to you-" before he could continue she stopped him "No. Nothing you say or offer will be ever good in my books" she said. He signed and moved forward the light from the street lighting his face ever so slightly. She saw his features he reminded her of something out of a dream that had turned into a nightmare, he was beautifully deadly. "Oh Rosie always fighting," he paused and shook his head laughing slightly. "My offer is... to come and join me and Jace" he continued as if she hadn't spoken, waiting to see if she would say anything he finished " Fight with me and him and I'll tell you everything you  want to know about you and your past. I'll let you be with Jace." He said his eyes gaining a dangerous spark. 

Sage scanning his face for anything to give away what he was really up to, found nothing and sighed. "I need time" was only thing she said. "Fine, you know how to find me" was all Valentine said and stepped back into the shadows vanishing.  

Present time

Sighing she stood up and walked out into the wintery cold weather of December. Wrapping her arms around herself she went to the only place she knew she could go and see him. The park near the institute, near the faerie entrance. Rain had started to drizzle which made the weather even more unbearable then before. Walking down the heal and up to the big old oak tree, she could she the figure. "Im here" she said finally making it leaving a space between the person and her. Looking up she met his gaze. "So will you enjoy me?" He questioned getting straight to the point. That how his was, thats who Valentine was. Sage fixing her gaze on a hooded figure walking up the heal behind Valentine, she signed. 

"Only if you promise that you will not harm them." She said her gaze leaving the figure for a split second to make eye contact with him. Valentine rolling his eyes signed. "fine, I wont harm them, any of the lightwoods or your friends."  He said. "So do we have a deal" he added "Promise" she repeated. "I promise" He said his eyes locking with hers.  "Then yes we do" She said as she watched the figure come right next to him, looking back at Valentine the smirk on his face to big to miss she frowned her eyebrows. "Right on time" He said his eyes having a joyful glint in them. like there was this joke that only he knew. "Well Sage welcome, and to insure you that I will keep my part of all this true, his a truce gift." He said stepping back letting the hooded figure be in her eye view focus. 

The figure taking tow steps forwards lifted his hand up and pushed the hood back revealing his Light blonde curly hair looking up his golden eyes met hers, the shadows under his eyes making them seem like they are glowing, the light highlighting buses that seemed almost faded, for the first time in a long time she felt her heart skip a beat. "Sage" his voice was rough and scruffy sounding. "Jace" She said her voice a whisper.
