Sarah Connor, a roughed-up, street smart girl, lives in the dark world of the Shadowhunters, where Warlocks are commonly known, and Vampires stay in old hotels. Living off of the rules she was brought up by, she is sucked into an isolate whirlwind of trouble, pain, and lies. Nothing is as it seems anymore, for both her, and the Shadowhunters of the New York Institute. New threats arrive, and old ones take on a whole new meaning, casting dangerous shadows over the city. While battling her own demons, will Sarah be able to save the Shadowhunters of New York before life as they know it comes crumbling down? And while she's at it, will she be able to save herself?

Arrested // Malec
Alec Lightwood is 21 years old and has promptly been arrested for being complicit in a group assault on a older gentleman that tried to commit rape on his younger sister, Isabelle Lightwood.

Jace has been a part of the NY police department for about a year now and even though his own sister was the victim this time, he can't choose family before his job. He swore an ode when he first got his badge and that is something he won't give up on that easy, not even for Alec. 5 years in prison may seem like an eternity and that is exactly what Alec expects it to be, but what he didn't expect was to meet Magnus Bane. He's 23 years old and arrested for murdering his very own stepfather, but the reason isn't what everyone thinks it is. It's much worse. Diagnosed with schizophrenia, Magnus doesn't quiet know what's real or not, but one thing he knows for sure is that ever since Alec Lightwood arrived at the prison, the voices in his head has begun to disappear. The question is, will Magnus be able to survive the silence?Complete

Some say that you have a destiny, a destiny that no matter how hard you may try, you can't escape. What's written is written and there is no avoiding it. The Craftsmen have always been a powerful family, but Elizabeth never wanted the power. After hardship after hardship, she just wanted a normal, Mundane life and to forget about her past completely.

She struggles back and forth between coming back as a Shadowhunter or continuing to try and live a normal life.

Sweet Little Serena (Rewrite)
The greatest Shadowhunter of his generation is what they say about the legendary Jace Wayland. But, what you don't know, is that they also say the same of his twin sister, Serena. For Serena is many things. She is the Clave Envoy to Downworlders. She is the parabatai to Isabelle Lightwood. And Serena herself, is a Lightwood, because she's married to none other than Alec Lightwood. Having grown up together, the four of them made a promise that whenever they go on a mission, four go in and four come out. Join them as they fight to keep that promise when their world is turned upside down by the introduction of Clary Fairchild, the fiery daughter of the biggest threat to the Shadow World, Valentine Morgenstern. Will they stay together? And above all, will they stay alive? (Seasons 1-3) (A/N: This is the rewritten version of the original story already published. It is also available on AO3. Would like to note that I have nothing against Alec being gay or Malec, I love them, this was just an idea that popped into my head, so please don't hate. Please don't plagiarise any of it.) (Disclaimer: I don't own anything except Serena and any original scenes and dialogue that I have written.)Complete
