Runaway

2

* Time skip 3 years* -Location New York-

18 year old Saturn Black paced back and fourth in the med-bay hallway. Izzy, Max, Clary, Alec & Jace where currently in ICU, after an ambush attack by clocked and masked figures wielding wands during a patrol. 

She'd been told they'd been fine, they just needed to rest. Of course Magnus had come with his best team of Warlocks and done recon and that's why they where going to be fine.  

Warlocks where a lot more powerful then Witch's and Wizard's where. 

Saturn fell back into a chair. Gods she hated this. She had been out of the wizarding world for 3 years now, and not once had anything happened that brought back her past. 

_-----------------------------MEMORY------------------------------_

Saturn waited until everyone was off the train to jump off. She shouldered her back and headed toward the floo. She grabbed a handful of slightly sparkly powder and threw in into the fire place, calling out "Number 12 Grimmauld Place!" as she went. 

Quickly she dusted the soot off herself as she came to the other side. The floo room was as dark and dreary as it always was and the place just screamed at you to get out- no wait, that's Kreacher. Kreacher was telling her to get out. Huffing she looked down at the crude old thing and gave him a look. 

Kreacher glared right back. " Nasty Mistress not welcomed here. Nasty Mistress must get her things and go!" There was a pop as Kreacher disappeared. She rolled her eyes but knowing Kreacher was never one to lie made her way to her bedroom. Upon arriving the thing she figured she'd find was there. 

'Saturn, 

You have disgraced and dishonored this family enough! Headmaster Dumbledore informed  that you would be returning home this Yule. But we will not have you here any longer! You are a waste of Black blood and I will not have it! You have been disowned and burned off the family tree. You are to have yourself and you things out of this house by the time we return!' 

She took the note scribbled a reply and walked into her room. 3 hours later all her thing had been shrunk and packed away in her suitcase. It was a muggle one, she'd kept it encase something like this where to happen.

After all Saturn wasn't stupid by any means and had been raised by Slytherins. So even thought she may be brash (this year only a testament of that) she did have her moments. 

She grabbed the stunning Black trunk like suitcase with white trim and headed to the front door. She looked back at the dark and dreary place she'd grown up in and couldn't find it in herself to be sad. 

Turning back around she exited her past and as she walked down the brick paved path into the muggle city lights she dug into her pocket fishing out her phone and her white beat headphones. 

Looking up at the sky where the bright full moon was shinning down on her a small grin pulled her lips. Walking down the street with only the moon as her guide she sang softly. 

This was the end of an era yes. 

But it was also the start of a decade. 

And well, when one chapter closes another one opens, and she couldn't wait to see where this one took her.

______________________-PRESENT-_____________________

Saturn huffed a laugh at the memory. It sure had taken her far. Once in the city she'd stayed a few days in a hotel while she booked a flight and found an apartment. She'd known she couldn't stay in the U.K., with being on the brink of a war and everything going on at school. She knew it wasn't her best option. 

She'd remembered stories that her great aunt had used to tell her. Her aunt was to perfect pureblooded lady, as far as her family where concerned.  She'd traveled the world and learned many things over the years. So when Saturn had been young her parents used to sent her to stay with dear aunt Deneb.

Aunt Deneb who was really her 3 times great aunt had been to America, and she would tell Saturn all sorts of stories. She'd tell her of her adventures with Magnus, Tessa, Jem & Will. Of her learnings at the shadowhunter academy. 

Those had been her favorite stories. Of New York and demon fighting and runes. It was why Saturn had dedicated so much of herself to runes. Why she had worked so hard to learn all she could. 

She'd been 12 when Deneb died. She'd gone peacefully in her sleep. When Saturn had gone to the bank for the reading of the will the goblins had held her behind, Aunt Deneb had left her a vault. It had been her personal vault. The one she'd had when she was a potioneer. Inside had been a small black box, with the emblem of Dene's potion business engraved on it. 2 roses, one bloomed one not, with a circle of thorns around it and 'Omnes de superbia' 'all's pride' written in swirling cursive winding around the bottom. 

Saturn had taken the box  into her hands and opened it gingerly. Inside had been a stele. Her aunt had said that it was nothing like the others. Forged from silver and dressed in magic where others would break, this one would not. It functioned like a wand. 

It was the most stunning thing she'd ever seen. Made of shinning silver that was twirled in tight spirals at both the top and bottom but sleek and straight as an arrow in the middle. A glimmering slightly blueish crystal protruded from the top and came to a sharp point at the end. Winding bits of copper snaked down the whole thing like vines, the engravings of runes that pulsed with magic covered the whole thing. It radiated power.

Looking down at her hands where she was currently spinning her stele, she grinned. She'd gone through the academy, and met Izzy, Alec and Jace. Jace and Alec where parabatai, and even though in the beginning she hadn't liked Jace much the more time went on the more she realized he was wearing a mask. 

It was from there she'd become his friend. She'd been the first one outside of the Lightwoods and he told her everything, and vise versa. Jace was the only person who knew her past and she was the only one who knew he was head over heels for both his parabatai and his parabatai's boyfriend. (sorry not sorry) 

Know though the past had come back to bite her. And it didn't even know it was her dang it! As far and the death eaters knew she was dead in a ditch somewhere In the river Thames!!
