Ten minutes later, John, Keta and I are unpacked.  I use my teleportation powers to send us to the library.

"Where did you three come from?" Simon asked us. 

"It's called magic, Lewis.  Ever heard of it?" my idiot of a brother John says.

"Yeah.  I get that, but how did you do that?"

"That is for us to know, and for you to either find out or leave alone."

"Whatever."

I relieved them of the tension floating in the air as I soon realized that everyone else had started to trickle in. 

"Ok," Robert Lightwood stated," We are all here and waiting.  What can you do to help us with our demonic problem?"

"What can we do?" I scoff," We can kill half of your demons in one sword swing."

"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?"

"Why don't we show you?  Follow us to the training room."

♦︎Time Lapse ♦︎

In the training room I set down the box we Shadows use when training, and said," What you see here might just be an ordinary box, but with a press of a button, and a flick of a Shadows wrist.  This box shall come to life."   I do what I said as I said it.  The box becomes an arena in a few seconds," We Shadows, as I said, use this for training to fight demons," I faced the arena, placing my hand on the barrier," Clarissa Morgenstern.  Leader, level 2934."  The arena changed.  "Say start when ready," the voice box said.  I pulled off my cape revealing my black combat boots, black leggings, black sports bra, and my Morgenstern sword strapped to my back.  John and Keta came to the library in black pants, black tennishoes, and black tshirts, Keta had a few daggers in his weapon belt and a whip wrapped around his neck like a necklace and John had the other Morgenstern sword strapped upon his back.  I step into the arena, the box now floating midair keeping the barrier in place.  "Start," I said, and the fighting began.  I closed my eyes and took a deep breath smelling the air of demons.  Demons. 6 o'clock.  I said to myself.  I opened my eyes while grabbing my  sword.  I threw it behind my back and did a backflip as it cut the demons throat.  I landed and grabbed the sword before it reached the floor.  There were more demons coming from the right side.  I threw my sword in a swiveling motion.  It cut each of the demons in half and flew back to me like a boomerang.  There was a slight shake in the ground.  Greater demon, damn it.  I flipped my sword grabbing it by its hilt.  Time for the BIG finish.  The demon sprouted from the ground right under me as if it had been waiting for the right moment to pounce.  I was just fast enough to jump before it clawed at its surroundings.  It was an ugly thing.  It had red eyes and black, slimy skin (if you could call it skin), it had claws the size of a dry erase marker.  Its nostrils held whiskers and tusks coming out of his cheek.  It screeched making my ears pop at the closeness of the demon and I.  " Hey Big Guy.  Come at me," I said with adrenaline coursing through my veins.  We charged at each other my sword against his poison filled claws.  I slashed at them barely scratching the surface of the claw.  The demons other hand scraped my stomach sending shocks of pain as the poison coarsed in my veins.  I slashed the demon across its back sending black slime everywhere.  I dodged a few slime balls before the touched my back, and did a front flip over the demon's head.  I cried out at the pain in my stomach as I was landing. "That is IT.  I am tired of playing nice." I said, and I meant it.  I arched my back and white wings with black runes opened from its hiding spot.  I soared into the air, throwing my sword.  Before my sword made contact with the black slime, I threw a fire and water ball at the sword, "ENCHANTRIS" I said and the water and fire balls flew into the sword turning the Morgenstern sword a mix of water, fire, and metal as it came into contact with the demons heart.  The demon screamed as it disintegrated into a pile of gold ash.  "Level Over.  Records saved."  The black box withdrew the barrier and fell back to the ground.  I softly fell to the ground and retracted my wings as I screamed in agony.  "CLARISSA," I heard John yell.  I felt something warm and wet on my stomach.  Blood.  I finally gained my eyesight and could stand.  "You idiot," I slapped my brothers arm as he placed a healing rune on the cuts," I have told you not to use your blood to heal me.  I do not care if I am on the verge of dying.  You let me heal.  You losing blood is not the top priority on my list.  Got it?  Good."

Hey peeps.  Sorry it has taken me so long.  We were on vacation and this stupid writers block.  I also got my phone taken away for a while.  I love you peeps.  Please comment, vote, and DM.  I also love hearing/ reading all of your ideas.  I need a boys name.  Hopefully it starts with a J.  No other hints on why I need it.
