        Everybody thinks that not having any money is dangerous.How about prancing in front of a bunch of demons, warlocks, vampires, and werewolves? My name is Myia. The first thing you should know about me is that i'm a shadowhunter. I am the daughter of Clary Fray and Jace Herondale. Nobody knew what my dad's actual last name was. As my mother told me, he was once known as Wayland, but then, a Morgenstern, the son of and evil shadowhunter named Valentine. Once he found out that Valintine was actualy lying, he considered himself a Lightwood, whom he lived with for a large time of his life. About ten years ago he found out that his true identity is Herondale.

         I hear snickering and turn around to see my older brother, Casper, right in front of me. He inches closer and punches me in the arm, then walks away, casually.

        I turn to face him, confused, but he seemed to disapear around the corner. I try to follow him, but I end up in a hallway at the Institute that I have never been in before; A hallway with two golden doors. I hear talking behind the door, and peek inside. I hear talking.

"We have to tell her what she is," a man's voice states.

"No, she can't find out that she has the power to change the world."

"Fine, but on her 16th birthday, we are going to tell her. She has to know in order to stay alive." The people walk toward the door, I run. As I peek around the corner, I see that it is my parents. With Magnus, the High worlock of Brooklyn. 

        When they turn the corner, I quickly make my way into the room. Windows cover one full wall. They look out to a beautiful Garden, with rows of flowers and statues of previous shadowhunters and worlocks. But sitting on the fountian, in the middle of the garden, is a dog. I go to the door toward the fountian, and sit next to the dog. I look at the dogs' neck, looking for a collar, but there is none.The dog growles and inches toward me. I back up,as the dog turns into something i cannot recognize. A demon.

        I scream and back away, trying to run as fast as I can away from the creature, but it outruns me. I try to scream, but before i can, a blurring figure flashes in front of me. I fall, tripping over a rock, just as the figure kills the demon.  The demon disintegrates, and the figure offers to help me up. I take his hand and stand, wobbling on my feet. He stares at me for a minute and smiles.He has perfect black hair and the most sparkling blue eyes. I can't help but stare. Something about that face of his looks familiar--   

"Hi. My name is Levi." Hey shakes my hand. I must be staring at him like I am crazy, because he laughs and shakes his head.

"Have you even seen a guy before?" 

"I-uh, well..." I studer. "Who are you?How did you get here?"   He satares and starts to walk away.

"Belive me. You will here more of me every day." He shoots me a smile, and I sware something about him reminds me about someone- someone that is in the hall of fame.
