"So honey how was your trip to the London institute?" Mom asked

Me, mum, and papa all sat at a smaller table in the hall to eat. Idris was a very large and beautiful place. The kingdom where the young shadowhunters train. Where they get all lessons about the shadow world. Where we eat and the clave have been residing. Idris has this beautiful lake although it can be dangerous. There are wolves that roam the woods.

"The trip was one for the books" he said

"Did you get me the flower as promised?" I asked

He smiled at me and got up from his chair. He went over to his bag and pulled something out. A glass jar with a rose and small flowers inside.

"I had the Idris clave members put runes to keep it safe" he said handing me the jar

"Thank you papa I love them" I said with a smile

Trinitys POV

Me and Jesse were transferred to the London institute. We've been training and going on missions together. Since we were first transferred out here. I'm currently now eighteen years old and Jesse is seventeen. He's fallen in love with a girl, but I don't think she's fit. What I mean by that is she gets around a lot. He has fallen for her and she's using him.

He won't listen though he's a young teenager who wants to have fun. I don't blame him but father says it's best to wait for marriage. That's the sad part I plan to wait for my soulmate anchor. The one that's meant especially for my wolf. For my angle, demon and warlock sides. I don't like to talk about my demon capabilities. Yes I have them and yes I have deep urges.

The urge to kill, but I have Jesse my younger parapatai. He keeps me grounded to the safe side of me. He helps me with everything I do in our lives. Although it's not going to be the same as my soulmate anchor. When Idris first taught me about my true nature. That's when it was hardest to control because I didn't understand. When they told me that I'd watch everyone I love die.

That hurt because it also meant I would out live my parapatai. Losing your parapatai is the worst thing in the world. At least I hope it will get easier over time. Most likely it won't and I'll need to fill a void. It's no time to think of such things happening. Even though it digs deep inside my brain. The constant reminder that because I'm a warlock.

I will be forced to outlive those I love and care for. I wish it were easier, I wish loving people wasn't so painful. The clave teach us at Idris to never show emotions. That emotions cloud our judgment and they aren't safe. Safe to have out in the field and risk getting hurt. Risk getting your partner into the way of harm. I on the other hand believe that our emotions make us stronger.

Feeling love gives us a reason to push through and keep fighting. Anger and rage give us reasons to keep fighting harder then before. Sadness gives us reasons to know we cared for others. Happiness and joy shows that we can have feelings. That we can do what makes us happy and feel good about it all. One thing you have to keep in mind it's the most important thing.

Never and I mean never ever let the emotions become too much. Have someone to help you, to talk to about them. So that you don't overwhelm yourself and get hurt in the field. You can't risk your team when out in a mission.

"Trinity, Jesse, Clare and Bethany, I need you guys to go into the field for a mission, there's a demon we've been tracking that are hunting mundanes, your to kill it and return, most importantly remember to go undetected" Ross says

Ross is the leader of the London institute for now. It changes of course when one does something wrong. Breaks a rule the clave has set in stone for reasons. I very much like pushing the rules to a point. I know when to cut it out and stop pushing. The Shadowhunter family is in deep connection to the clave. My father is on the clave court while my mother resides in Idris.

Father does as well, but mum isn't on the court itself. I was sent to London because New York isn't a place for me right now. Although I might be transferred there sometime. Another fact that when I've watched everyone I love die. I'll have to transfer to places such as back and forth. Between Idris, London, New York, Los Angeles, and other some places.

There are many different locations throughout the globe. You just have to know where the right places are.

"Okay team let's get through the portal shall we" i say

I have my stele in my back pocket, my dagger on one hip. My shadowhunter blade in the other hip and my warlock abilities ready. Clare she's new to the team it was originally just me Bethy and Jesse. We had to add a member only because Ross gave us the order. You don't want to push your bosses buttons. I'm an exception for various reasons I might say.

Such as Ross is close family in certain ways I guess. Well in truth all shadowhunters are basically family. All related in some way or something like that. Of course we aren't brothers and sisters all of us. We have close friends, cousins and so forth. I'm the leader of my team since I'm the oldest. Bethy comes in second at eighteen but I'm going on nineteen.

Clare is sixteen and like I said before Jesse is seventeen. Bethy keeps a close eye on Clare because I'm jesses parapatai. We work together best and always side by side. Rarely leaving the others side for long, unless of course it's required. Like going on a separate mission that is enforced by the clave. It's happened once or twice and it never ended well.
