Nothing Without You(Barry/Alec) SHADOWHUNTERS/THE FLASH

Chapter Three

Barry Allen
Barry stared at the thing in front of him. He knew it wasn't human but he had no idea what it was. Dealing with metahumans taught him how to deal with weird but this...this was a whole new level of weird, even for him.

Barry didn't know if he was supposed to run or if he should fight back but he knew one thing for sure. He was not going to die here in this club at the hands of some damn monster.

The man launched himself at Barry and using the training he had gotten while being the Flash, he raised his leg and kicked him in the abdomen sending the man flying backwards over a bar stool. He recovered fast and lunged at the speedster, grabbing him by his shoulders and knocking him to the floor.

Barry reached up and tried to keep the man at bay as he tried to sink his teeth into his throat. The man was stronger than he was and his mouth was inching closer and closer to his neck and Barry mentally prepared himself for what he was going to do. He headbutted the man on top of him and shoved him to the side, climbing to his feet. The man rose with him and Barry gritted his teeth, balled his fist up and punched the man in the face.

It didn't faze or hurt the man in the slightest. Barry, however, shook his hand and cursed loudly. The man grinned at him showing his fangs and Barry backed away, bumping into a stool. He picked it up and swung it over his head at his attacker. It broke apart in his hands and he stared horrified at the man in front of him who clucked his teeth and shook his head.

"What the hell are you?!" Barry demanded.

"Your worst nightmare pretty boy." The man said and Barry took a step back only for the man to grab him and pull him close. The man bared his fangs and suddenly that raven haired british guy was there, tackling the man to the floor and bringing Barry down with them.

Landing on his back he flipped onto his stomach and watched as the raven haired boy glared at the man in front of him baring his own fangs. Barry stayed where he was, too afraid to move.

"Stay away from him." The boy growled.

The man smirked. "You should know better than to go against your own kind Zayn. And for a human no less."

The boy--Zayn--growled deeply and said, "We don't attack humans!! He did nothing to you! What's your problem?!"

The man sneered and looked at Barry, before smirking again. "I want him to be mine. He's hot. I want to turn him."

The man made a move towards Barry and he scrambled backwards, watching as Zayn launched himself at the man. Barry realised that Zayn was trying to help him, to keep him safe but why? He didn't even know him.

Barry flinched when someone touched him and looked up. It was Alec and Jace. Blaine was standing beside them, fear and confusion written all over his face.

"Barry are you okay?" Alec asked, his blue eyes full of concern.

Before Barry could respond, Zayn was thrown against a wall and the man started towards him. He was in front of him in seconds and lifted him up by his throat. Barry choked and tried to pry his fingers from around his throat, his toes barely touching the floor. Alec and Jace tried to attack him with glowing swords from two sides but they were thrown backwards.

Barry gasped for air and felt himself getting weaker but he wasn't going to give up. He clawed at the mans face, aiming for his eyes and eventually the man let him go. Well 'let go' seems a bit off for what he did. He actually sent Barry flying across the club where he slammed into a wall and collapsed to the floor, barely conscious.

How was it that everyone was ignoring what the hell was happening?

Barry lay on the floor on his side, wanting nothing more than for this to just be a nightmare but he knew it wasn't. Somehow he knew this wasn't a figmant of his imagination and he somehow made this up. This was real and this was happening.

When the darkness came, he welcomed it like a warm blanket in the winter time.

Alec Lightwood
Alec climbed to his feet and sprinted over to Barry's unconscious form lying on the floor at the other end of the club. He knelt by his side and checked for a pulse. It was there but weak. He must have hit his head when he hit the wall.

Alec pulled his seraph blade and whirled around, aiming it at the vampire storming towards them. Jace was just getting to his feet on the other side of the club and Alec made eyecontact with him. Jace nodded and grabbed the guy calling himself Blaine and told him to leave. Clary, Jace and Isabelle spread out and created a circle around the vampire.

"Shadowhunters!" The vampire hissed. "I hate you high and mighty humans."

"And we hate vampires who harm mundanes and break the accords." Alec says calmly despite how fast and hard his heart was beating. He needed to get Barry out of here and he was worried that headwound might be a very big problem if they didn't get him out of here and fast.

The vampire hissed and Alec stood his ground as he charged forward. At the last second, Alec ducked and came up jamming the seraph blade between the vampires ribcage where his unbeating heart was. The vampire wailed and disappeared in dust and ash.

Alec spun back around and knelt beside the mundane that had caused all of this trouble without even trying. Blaine raced over, Jace and the two girls right behind him and he dropped to Barry's side.

"He's gonna be okay right?" Blaine demanded. Alec didn't say anything as the mundane grabbed Barry's hand and said, "You better not go back into a nine month coma Barry or I'll kill you myself you son-of-va-bitch."

Alec frowned at Blaine and said, "He was in a coma?"

Blaine nodded. "For about a year...it isn't my story to tell. All I can tell you is he woke up a year ago and things were different."

"What happened?" Clary asked.

"Like I said...it isn't my story to tell." Blaime answered.

Alec glanced at Jace who nodded and said, "C'mon. We need to get him back to the Institute. We can help him there."

Blaine decided not to ask questions and Alec was grateful because he didn't feel like answering them. But he made a mental note to ask Barry about this coma he was in and what happened.
