The Mundane Shadowhunters

chapter two

(Kenzies PoV)

I had the best time with Eddie tonight, watching him squirm at Attack of the Spider Clones III was so cute and funny, then we got ice cream and he drove me home. His beautiful green eyes look up at me in the dimly lit car, the only source of light is from the street lamp out the from of my house.
"I had a great time with you tonight babe, even if I'm going to have nightmares from that movie... I wish I brave like you" Eddie kisses my cheek and I let out a small laugh.
The air outside is chilly causing goose bumps on my skin as the wind flows threw the open window of the car, moments like this I wish I had my stele on me to place a warmth rune.
"Believe me there much more terrifying things that lie in the shadows then some silly movie... Not bravery dear" I notice my parabatai ichor soaked and bruised walking up the path towards the house, her messy jet black hair  stuck to her at the temples, Only one seraph blade in hand and her clothes shining with the fowl black blood of demons. But that wasn't the most startling thing about this scene, of course I have seen Athena in this state multiple times but not with a tall handsome boy walking beside her... No not just a boy, a shadowhunter.
I watch as they walk closer to the house and this white haired man hands her an unused sereaph blade and a piece of paper. Eddie's voice drowned out but my focusing stare, I feel him put his warm hand on my cheek and bring my attention back to him.
"Kenz, what are you looking at? Are you okay"
"Yes of course just tired, I'm gonna run inside and head to bed I love you and drive home safely" I rush this goodbye and kiss him quickly before jumping out of the car but as I turn to run towards the house the man is gone and my parabatai is basically running inside away from me.
I throw myself threw the bathroom door not caring that she's in the shower.
"Excuse me can I help you dear?" Athena says as she grabs the shampoo.
"Oh yes you can help me... Who was that boy? Mr tall dark and gorgeous?" I sir myself on the cold toilet lid. The small bathroom that is connected to both Athena and my bedroom is scarcely decorated excpet a small cactus sitting on the Basin.
"Just some guy, met him on my hunt tonight which mind you I'm trying the shower off ichor here if you don't mind" she points towards my bedroom Door on the left side of the bathroom and then goes tries to get conditioner
"Yeah no... Details... Name? Age? Institute?"
"How about no... No... And um no?" I hand her a full bottle of berry scented condition from under the Basin.
"Okay but why were parabatai and I'm not gonna let this goooo"
"Okay if itll get you to be quite so I can enjoy my peaceful shower than fine. Daniel Nightwell, 19, local, transfer from Idris"
"Oooooh... How'd you meet"
"By the angel leave I'm in the shower" she throws the empty bottle of conditioner at me and I duck, it hits the wall behind me and falls into the little black bin beside the toilet.
"Fine! But where continuing this tomorrow"
"Yes tomorrow great I'm going out tonight. Heard there's a downworlder party downtown"
"Actually tonight because I'm coming with you" i notice the confused look on Athena's face as I rush into my room to get dressed.

Athena entered my room in a tight leather black dress, she brought this the last time we weren't to Idris... Well technically she brought the fabric and made the dress, the underlying is made from the same material as our gear and electrum is threaded threw the dress. I decided I would just wear a simple plain black blouse and jeans. She matches her dress with combat boots and I throw on some black heels of course, it's rare I wear my runes proudly, on a hunt mostly but I would never get into a downworlder party without proof that I am of the shadow world.
"Let's go Callum black is hosting this thing and I know from experienceses he hates tardiness, one time I was 2 hours later to one of his parties and he tried to make me into a coat rack for the night"
Athena says as hiding weapons in her clothing
"How come I never heard about this?"
"I said tried..."

We enter Mr blacks apartment it's elaborately decorated with very bright colours, silks and fabrics thrown around the place, hanging off lights and beams and the furniture. The Wall to the left is filled entirely with bright flowers and strange glowing plants that I've never seen before. The bitter scent of downworlder fills the air mixed with the sweet scent of candles. Athena just walks in and heads straight to the shiny silver bar to the right of the apartment, I rush after her. Normally I'm the life of a party but I've never been to a downworlder party goodness I've only really encountered some rouge vampires and one seelie, even tho the law now doesn't let any Nephilim under 18 interact with the seelies.
"Well if it isn't my favourite coat rack" a man exclaims behind us, I turn. To see a tall purple skinned man wearing a three piece purple suit almost the exact shade of his skin, his hair is black and sticking up all over the place and he has a glowing green drink in hand. Athena speaks next.
"Well if it isn't my favourite soon to be purple foot stool"
"You'll never make a foot stool out of me dear I would make a much cuter throw rug" his blue eyes land on me "and who might this little Nephilim be, i thought you didn't hang out with your kind"
"This is Kenzie my parabatai" Athena hands me a drink and and whispers in my ear to not drink anything glowing or thick. Ive never felt so out of my element than here before.
Callum extends his hand to mine and I return the gesture, he takes my hand and kisses it gently.
"Pleasure to meet you, don't worry I shan't make you a coat rake unlike your sister now if you'll excuse me I have guests that need attending" and with that he's disappeared into the crowd.
as I'm watching the mass of downworlders i notice three things, Athena at some point vanished from beside me, the second thing is the very handsome boy I now know as Daniel is here and suprise suprise talking to my parabatai, and thirdly and most shockingly, a tall slender brunette girl sitting on the couch at the far end of the room. He brown eyes lock onto mine and she goes pale realising it's me her friend... Those familiar features of my dear friend Jessica a ment to be mundane, tho now I notice the shes sitting amongst a pack of Wolves.
