Chapter 8 - Fears
When I got home I was greeted by two nervous looking parents which got me nervous. I looked at them nervously as they motioned for me to come into the kitchen and sit at the table.
"What's going on?" I asked
"There is something we need to tell you" dad began
"Okay" I said
"You've been finding things out about yourself haven't you?" Mom asked
"Wait you knew?" I asked shocked
I felt the frustration building as I fiddled with my hands in my lap underneath the table.
"Don't get upset please we wanted nothing more than to tell you and that's why we began putting you into those fighting classes" mom said
"SO you knew about how I was feeling, why I felt the way I did and you never told me" I shouted
"We wanted to treat you and raise you out of that kind of world, but we now see it wasn't right to do that" dad said
"The stories you told me growing up?" I asked
"All real" dad said
"I can't believe this" I snapped
"I feared you would be in more danger with knowing, but we realize your more in danger without knowing" dad said
"So what is it, what am I then huh?" I asked then Jax showed up beside me
"We brought Jax into your life to try and convince and protect you" mom said
"So, you knew him too" I snapped
"Trinity they only meant to protect you" Jax said
I simply scoffed and ignored Jax's statement because that is what I seemed to be best at doing lately.
"He's here isn't he?" dad asked
"Jax you can show yourself to us" mom said
I watched as Jax ran his stele over his glamour rune as I found out that they are called "Runes" or "Angel markings". I watched as my parents nodded in acknowledgement of his presence, which only fueled my anger.
"You expect me to feel better now that you told me you knew this entire time that I was different, well guess what I don't in fact I feel even worse and angrier" I snapped
"Trinity we are really sorry trust me we are, but we need to tell you something else" mom said
"Like what" I asked
"Do you know exactly what you are?, what your kind is called?" dad asked
"I heard someone or people say something like a Shadowhunter or hybrid" I said as I thought back to what happened at the doctors
"Yes, your a hybrid a mix of things, your part Shadowhunter, part something else, but your kind is meant to protect us humans not harm them, that is why we want to protect you" mom said
"Mom were back" Elena said as she came through the door
Jax hurried and re-hid himself from Elena and Jermey's view with his glamour rune.
"Oh Trinity there you are" Elena said as she entered the kitchen
"Hey Lena" I said trying to sound calm
Although she saw right through it, which didn't surprise me whatsoever of course. She tended to be good at things like that, except for figuring out what emotion that person is really hiding.
"Mom, dad can we talk about this later?" I asked
"Yeah go do your homework" dad said
I rolled my eyes and went back up the stairs and into my room, I tried to shut the door but Elena stopped it.
"Want to talk?" she asked
"Wish I could Lena I do, but I'm behind in school and I don't want to chat too much about it right now" I said
"Okay well you know where my room is if you need to talk" she said and shut the door when she left
I decided to do my schoolwork at the bay window while Jax sat on my bed reading one of my many books.
__________________________
The weeks of being grounded went by fast and sooner then later I found out that I could end my terrible punishment. I got my phone, computer and abilities back from my parents which was great. Especially because there was a party going to happen this weekend and I was not going to miss it. I never miss a party unless of course I'm grounded again that's the only reason otherwise I go out with friends as much as possible.
"Knock knock" Elena said as she stood in my doorway
"Hey Lena what's up?" I asked
"Mom wants to know if you want to help out in the kitchen with dinner tonight, something about it being your best dish" she said
"Oh yes I'll be down in a second" I said
With that she left and I jumped up from reading at my bay window to help mom make dinner. It was something I was good at but I also was good with a paintbrush and singing supposedly. That was according to my family who often hears me sing in my room or the shower. I don't like to sing in front of people because it's nerve wracking really. All those judgmental looks and gestures I couldn't take it, it would be way too much for me. So the kitchen is where I spent time with mom it was our thing and it was fun. Even if mom lied to me and dad also I didn't mind the cooking. It was her way of apologizing to me for what her and dad had done to me all these years.
Cooking and painting was my escape from reality and reality was a harsh place. Where apparently vampires, witches, werewolves and more existed. I read more on my kind the past few days that I'd known about my true nature. Shadowhunters were half angel and the runes gave us our powers but me I was different. How in the way I am I'm not quite sure yet but I kept reading and asking Jax questions. Patently there are institutes all around the world like New York and one in London too. There is a place called Idris where my people go to train to be a protector of mundanes.
