Chapter Four – Meeting the Dark Angel

Jace couldn't stop laughing at the warlocks face when the vase came crashing down on his back, and made no effort to help the man up, receiving a cold glare from his brother and a punch in the arm from his sister.

"That's not funny Jace, now she's gone" Clary sighed as she stared at the empty room

"I didn't think she'd be that cool" he snorted "I'm joking" He quickly added from the dangerous look he got.

"We should find her" Issabell sighed as rubbed her head, "she was fine earlier"

"Maybe because she saw Magnus's face?" Clary and Issabell coughed to hide the laugh from the randomness; Alec looked away whilst the warlock did not look amused at all.

"Seriously, she doesn't know where she is, and anything could happen to her." Clary said as she left the group

"And where do you expect to start looking?" Magnus asked, clearly in a fowl mood now. Clary stopped.

"I don't know, but I'll look. Tessa doesn't even know her way around here, what if something bad happens to her?" Magnus looked at her as she looked back, keeping eye contact.

"Tessa?" He repeated

"Yhea, Tessa Gray, that's the girl's name."

"Well what are we waiting for? Move little Shadowhunters" Magnus ordered, gaining weird looks from everyone, but never explaining himself.

Tessa gasped as she hid in the ally, not used to all this running and walking and sounds. Thinking about it, it could have been a lot easier to hide herself within the crowd if maybe she'd used her abilities. She checked to see if she was being followed, not that she didn't stick out like a sore thumb, still in her dress and heals.

When she was sure she wasn't being followed she left the ally and just…walked.

She didn't exactly know where she was going, but heck, only one think made sense, she came though water, a lake of some sorts, so was that how to get home? She didn't know. And she hated not knowing.

It was just one of those things. What had her Aunt always told her?

What did that matter?

Why did this happen to me? Was it because I was happy to stay with them? Or was it because I'm clearly different?

She didn't like being different at the best of times, so how was this any different.

She found herself heading into a park, and didn't realy know how shed gotten there.

Maybe she should just give up right? After all, everything that happens has a reason behind it right? So maybe she wasn't meant to go back home. That though alone hurt more then anything else. The fact that maybe she wasn't needed as much as she hoped she was. Maybe it was better off that she wasn't there, look what happened between the first couple of months of her stay.

Again she found herself thinking about how things would be better if only she'd stayed home, if she hadn't gone on that chase to find her brother. She missed him, she missed her family.

"Why did this happen?" She asked aloud, placing her head in her hands "Why me? I know I'm different, I know I'm not human but still…why me?" She asked herself

"Why indeed" Came a voice.

Tessa snapped her head up, wincing at the whiplash that it coursed. Some one was sat next to her, cloaked in a vale of dark robes; she could only make out the bottom of his face, old scars from battles gone by, and the odd stray black hair against pale skin. Tessa swallowed, but never looked away.

"Can I help you Sir?" Tessa asked the person, a small smile upon their lips. She was guessing from the body structure that it was male. She knew this was a bad idea, of coarse she was going to attract the wrong people.

"Maybe, maybe not." They spoke; she raised a questioning eyebrow at his vague answer. Somehow, this person seemed familiar, even though shed never seen them. Something in the back of her head was telling her to excuse herself and just walk away. "You look very out of place here" They added. And even though she couldn't see it, she knew they were staring at her.

As if I didn't already know that

"I'm a bit lost" She smiled politely at the person.

"No, I mean, as if you don't belong here Miss Gray" They spoke. Tessa froze and stared at the figure, the smile turning into something that resembled a shark's smile.

"How do you know my name?" She asked quietly. "Who are you?"

"Oh you don't know me, not yet anyway, and as if I'd tell you." They spoke, the smile never leaving his face "But I do know what you're looking for. And possibly a way to help you." They added as if it was an after thought. Tessa said nothing as she sat very still on the bench.

"But, not now. It's too soon" He sighed

"Wait…why do you want to help me, you don't know me, I certainly don't know you" Tessa asked

"Because, I'm a fellow Shadowhunter." He smiled "We have to help out our own right? Don't tell anyone you met me, it'll spoil the surprise"

Slowly she nodded. And he got up.

"May I know your name?" She asked, the small smile was back.

"Unfortunately no." And he left. Just like that.

She stared at the spot some more, letting out the breath she had held in for such a long time, something she didn't know she had been doing until now.

"Tessa Gray?" She looked over and jumped up with a squeal of horror, it was the young man from earlier, with the emerald, cat like eyes and dark hair. There was no smile, just a plain face, his eyes dark as the sparkly stuff clung to most of his face and hair.

"Y-yes?" She stuttered, utterly scared. She thought she had knocked this man out. That vase had weighed a lot to someone like her.

"Well, this is a surprise, I've found her"

A teenage boy appeared by the tall man, dark hair and light blue eyes, Tessa stared at the new arrival, calling out a name before she had time to stop herself.

"William?" The boy looked confused and then shock his head.

"Er…No. My names Alec, Alec Lightwood, and this is Magnus, Magnus Bane" The teen introduced.

Tessa looked between then, and then things clicked into place. Of coarse she knew the strange eyed man, she had pretended to be his 'girlfriend' if that's what you called an age old vampire woman, in order to try and find her brother and find a few things out for the Shadowhunters in her time. Kind of made sense in a way, but that still didn't stop her from being on edge, and this boy.

Alec Lightwood.

She smiled a sad smile.

"Of coarse you are Mr Lightwood. Please do forgive my rudeness" Tessa smiled "But please do excuse me, I do have someplace to be"

"He's not here Tessa, no one is. Just you." She looked up at Magnus. "There's things you need to know before you go on this little goose chase. Trust me"

"But…"

"We can try to help you" Alec sighed "I don't know how, but we can try"

And Tessa did the only thing she could think of doing. She nodded.

She nodded and was lead the way back.
