"Izzy, Cheyanne hurry up!" Alec said walking into Izzy's room trying not to show his distaste for how skimpily dressed his twin and younger sister were.
"Chill big brother." Izzy said slightly nudging him with her elbow.
"Yeah calm down Alec; perfection takes time." Cheyanne chipped in linking arms with Alec.
"Really Iz?" Alec says wrinkling his nose at the wig she was holding."
Izzy looked at him and said, "What demons dig blondes." Cheyanne chuckled while Alec rolled his eyes. "Yes but that's white." Alec's states in a matter of fact tone. "Platinum, it's not like they like Shakespeare Alec." Cheyanne said smiling up at her brother. Alec huffs but nonetheless accepts the statement with, "looking good girls now lets go."
---------------------------------------------
After following their target and battling a demon after some stupid mundane with the sight almost ruined their mission the Lightwood siblings traveled back to the Institute and let's just say Cheyanne and Alec were not in the best of moods.
"Alec, Cheyanne please stop the complaining she's just a mundane no reason to get your knickers in a twist." Izzy said in annoyance.
"I could care less about the stupid mundane; but Mr. Not so pretty boy just had to shove me out of the way so he could fight with Alec and left you by yourself, you could've gotten hurt just because blondie had to prove some stupid ass point!" Cheyanne spat hatefully.
It's no secret that Cheyanne and Jace have bumped heads since Jace showed up when She and Alec were 10.
Her and Alec used to dream of being parabatai. To be closest in a way that no one else could understand. Twins and parabatai the ultimate bond.
Then Jace showed up in all his cockiness and Cheyanne never minded him as she had a sister his age. That was until Jace and Alec got close and suddenly Jace and Alec were always together. They trained together, Jace held Alec's hand when Alec and Cheyanne got their first rune and suddenly it was Alec and Jace talking about becoming parabatai. On the day Alec asked her if she was okay with it and of course she wasn't SHE was supposed to be his parabatai and that's exactly what she planned to tell him.
But she could tell how much work he put into their training and how his eyes lit up when he talked about Jace and she just couldn't bring herself to tell him. So she told him it was okay and watched him broadly smile at her. Then when it came time for the ceremony Cheyanne put on a brave face and watched as her dream crumbled in front of her. Then she smiled and greeted people at the after party even though she felt like balling her eyes out because that what you do on one of the greatest days of your brothers life, you support them. But since then Cheyanne can't help but resent Jace for ruining her future. She's never told Jace and Alec because she doesn't want to upset Alec or make him feel guilty; so she told the only other two people she can trust Isabelle and her best friend Nova.
"Cmon guys perk up; you're gonna present soon you should be excited!" Izzy said pushing them through the Institutes doors. That immediately made Cheyanne perk up. All supernatural beings all have a secondary gender; you can present as either an alpha, beta, or omega. Presenting is a huge deal for Shadowhunters; like throwing a party in your honor huge deal. You present on your 18th birthday and Alec's and Cheyanne's is in two days.
"Izzy you know I don't really care about that. It's stupid to have to dress up over something as dumb as gender. I don't think it matters!" Cheyanne said getting slightly heated.
"Good job Iz you got her started." Alec playfully rolling his eyes.
To which Cheyanne punched him in the shoulder and said, "Oh be quiet you." After Cheyanne ranted the entire way home they all walked into the Institute only to see Jace and unconscious in his arms... the mundane from the club.
