Part 6
A/N : The Italics is another realm and the normal font is the real world. Hope you guys don't get confused
"Magnus, can you hear me?" Magnus heard whispers of fainted voice and slowly he flutters his eyes to open. When he did, he saw nothing but darkness and burning flames smells. "Y-Yeah, I can hear you." He answered and know his soul was on the other realm, his body left behind in his own apartment. "Okay good, follow my voice and it will lead you home. Find Alexander as soon as you can." The voice echoed in darkness as Magnus walked further. "Thanks for the pressure." He commented and kept moving his feet forward.
He felt like he had been walking for hours and began to fail his mission in finding Alec but he didn't gave up there, he inhaled a deep breath and exhaled them sharply closing his eyes and starts to chant, " Oh angel, what I lost help me to find, as I may restore my piece of mind, bring it to sight, bring it this night. Keeper of what disappear, hear me now, open your ears, find for me what I now seek, by all the powers in heaven or hell, help me, so mote it be." A sudden thunder grumbles and the ground he stood shook, he could hear some grunting and the place felt colder than usual but Magnus kept his heart strong and hoped to find Alec soon.
In distant he could hear screams, groaning and someone yelling as if they were tortured. He knew he was in the pit of the demon chamber where he kept his victims souls. Slowly the darkness began to fade and replaced with faint light coming across him. He felt the soft wind appears as he walked further as he kept calling out Alec's name. "Alexander? Where are you?" He found a door, somehow in the middle of the realm as he walked further and pushed it against him. The dark blue door creaked open as he pushed and found himself in an empty room. He sighed in disappointment but quickly adverted to the sound of chains and shackles.
He turned his head towards a corner and his vision blurred. The room is blurred in ashes falling from the ceiling. It looks like it was the sky is snowing but only the room is blurred with the smoke but somehow not suffocating enough for Magnus to breathe. He saw a figured in a corner hiding so he decided to walk to it. When he got closer, the smoke began to disperse and he could see the figure well. It surprised him to see the person was chained up on his wrist and ankles. The person crouch resting his face on his knees with his arm wrapped around his leg and Magnus could hear whimpers. He knew exactly who the person was and he felt happier as he got closer. "I found him. Alexander." He called and the person sat on the floor quickly backed away and Magnus could see his figure as vivid as it was a real thing.
Alec stood before him with his clothes all torn up, his black pants covered in ashes and he was barefoot. But the person stood before Magnus wasn't exactly the usual Alec he used to see. He was a soul that he carried within, he is a shadowhunters and when Magnus sees him, he could see him with his angel wings, all shadowhunters are descendants from half angel half mundane but Magnus' heart shattered to see Alec's wings broken and burnt. Half of his wings were almost gone and the feathers scattered all over the floor, he was wounded and blood seeping from the bones on his back. His other wings were already burnt and slowly dying, not spreading like a supposed angel does. "Alexander?" Magnus called and ran to him, Alec was standing wrapping his body insecurely, he was whimpering, mumbling some words Magnus couldn't understand.
"Alexander?" Magnus called reaching to him but he backed off to the corner and when his back hit the wall he screamed in pain. He fell on his knees lifting his left hand up in fear, "Please, please d-don't hurt me anymore, please." He begged and his voice croaked in tears. Magnus' heart shatters seeing him so broken and tortured which he cursed the demon for doing this to him. "Alexander look at me. Listen to my voice" Magnus kneeled before him and waited for Alec to respond. Slowly Alec lift his face up and his face were beyond what Magnus imagined.
His usual pale skin was now bathe in blood coming from his nose, his mouth and his forehead. His eyebrow bleed and the blood trails down to his sharp jaw. His other jaw bruised and so does his cheek. His eyelids are swollen but his eyes are darken like he still possessed. His mouth dripped with blood and his hair were a mess like he had been yanked by someone. "Oh Alec, what have happened to your poor soul?" Magnus prayed as his heart couldn't bear anymore pain seeing his beloved were tortured in such state. "You're not real. None of you are." He whispered and returned his gaze back on the floor in his kneeling position.
Slowly Magnus kneeled closer and their body almost touching each other. Magnus raised his palm and cupped Alec's cheek before he whispered, "Alexander. Look at me my love, its me. I'm here to take you home, all of your family is waiting for you." Alec jolted his face to look at Magnus and his eyes contorted in anger, he pushed Magnus with his hand on Magnus chest causing him to stumble back on his back, "YOU LIED! My family is not waiting for me! They all think I am nothing but a disappointment, they all think I'm a failure. I AM A FAILURE! I could never be what they want me to be!" Alec screamed causing Magnus to flinch, no matter what, Alec's insecurity is still high and he still feel he's not worth of anyone's being.
"You're wrong Alexander, they love you, remember! Isabelle, Jace, Max, me. Remember me!" Magnus said as he launched himself towards Alec and grabbed both of his hand. "Remember." Alec looked down on their tangled hand and memory began to flash in his mind, their first time, how they shared the night together, Magnus' cat eyes, "They're beautiful, you're beautiful." Alec heard his own voice in his mind and saw their hands tangled on Magnus' gold satin sheets. "B-Beautiful." He whispered and Magnus smiled, slowly lifting his hand to Alec's cheek. Alec looked up and tears began to spill on his face, he saw Magnus smiled and immediately he saw his whole family, his mother Maryse hugging Magnus, "Thank you for loving my boy." Her voice whispered. Izzy's voice echoed after, "Alec I'm so proud of you." Her smile flashes on Alec's mind and later Jace's voice appears, "I didn't know what I was missing, but it was you, my parabatai, my brother." Jace looked into Alec's eyes in hope and despair.
"Jace, brother." Alec called.
Brother Zachariah heard how Alec pleaded for Jace, his parabatai. He touched his shoulder, where his rune used to be, his fingers run through the thick material of his robe. "Wherever we are, we are as one. I miss you Will." He whispered bowing his head down in honor of his fallen parabatai. He knew the feeling of missing his half piece of his heart and it hurts him the most in this world. He snapped from his own mind and focused on Magnus, "Magnus we need to hurry." He whispered as he sat beside Magnus on the floor. Magnus body lay beside Alec and his mind wanders to bring Alec back into their realm.
Magnus heard Brother Zachariah's voice and nodded. He looked at Alec and saw his wound slowly disappeared. His once broken wings were starting to grow into a new one and he stood. Bright light shone on his mid chest causing Magnus to cover his eyes from the light from burning his eyes. Then in a moment, Alec was free from his bound and his hand and legs were free again. He eyed his body that filled with his runes and he felt stronger. He looked up to Magnus stood before him and grabbed his face before pressing his lips on him.
"I love you." Alec whispered and Magnus smiled before leaning in for another kiss but suddenly they heard a loud grunt and a screamed. "We have to get out of here. Come." Magnus quickly grabbed Alec by his hand and they ran towards where Magnus came from. They got lost in middle of the darkness and Magnus began to pants, he pulled the thread multiple times to alert him. "Jem, I've got Alec. Get us out of here." Magnus yelled at the mid air which Alec couldn't understand but kept his silence. Then they were surprised by a loud thump behind Alec and he quickly turned, protecting Magnus behind him. "Where are you running boy! You are mine! Forever!" The demon screamed and whipped a chain filled with spikes and it smothered with bloods. He lassoed the chain up to catch Alec and as soon as he throw them, Alec caught it with his forearm. He twist the chain around it and looked at the demon angrily.
"You don't own my soul! I am not afraid of you anymore! I have no fear against you demon!" He shouted and his words seethed through his mouth, the demon was furious on what Alec said to him and wanted to lounge at him but Alec spread his wings wide and a bright light appears from every corner in the room shining his way. The demon was torn by the light, he fell on his knees in pain as the light felt like a rays of painful knives scrapping his skin. "Sometimes you have to go through darkness to get to the light, no matter how deep the darkness is, always have faith in the light. You can not feed on my darkness anymore demon, my light is here with me." Alec burst the rays from his chest and the demon screamed bloody murder and slowly its body shattered and dispersed into the air.
Magnus that stood behind Alec the whole time was amazed at how Alec handled his demon, "Alexander?" He called and Alec turned around, Alec smiled cupping his cheek, "Faith is seeing the light with your heart when all your eyes sees is darkness, you found me Magnus, you are my light in darkness and I love you." Alec pressed his kiss on Magnus lips and felt himself slowly weaken. They both fall on the ground and lay side by side and let the darkness consumed them.
Magnus jolted up from his unconscious and looked around him. He's no longer on the floor beside Alec but rather on the couch with Maryse and Jem sat beside him. "Magnus are you okay? What happened?" Maryse asked as she waited patiently beside him and stared at him in fear. "Alexander? What happened?" He asked, Maryse and Jem sighed beside him before Jem told him, "You didn't wake up after we pulled you out from the demon realm, you both didn't and that was a day before."
"Alexander?" He called and quickly got up from the couch to find Alec. He ran into the room and saw Alec on the bed still, sleeping. He felt disappointed and know he failed. He failed to bring Alec back. He walked closer to him and fell on his knees beside Alec. "I love you too Alexander." He said as he gripped Alec's hand with his and rested his forehead on it. He cried beside his loved one and wishes for Alec to woke up, wishing he could tell him how much he loves him too.
Slowly Alec's hand under Magnus grip twitch and movements were there to see. Alec inhaled a sharp breath before he exhaled them. Magnus lifted his head and looked at Alec on the bed. He lifted himself from the ground and sat beside Alec on the bed. His eyes began to slowly open and he had trouble adjusting to the light on the top of the ceiling. He blinked it away couple times before he opened them and turned his head on the side to find Magnus beside him, crying.
"Magnus? What happened? Why are you crying?" He sat up trying to console his boyfriend but he felt dizzy and slowly lay back on the pillow. "Easy there darling, you still recovering, everything is fine now that you are here with me." Magnus rubbed Alec's shoulder in comfort and he sighed. "I love you too Alexander." He leaned forward and pressed his lips on Alec's and they both smiled although Alec still confused of what happened.
"ALEC!" Isabelle screamed and behind her followed by Jace and Maryse, they all ran to his side and hugged Alec which then caused him to groan in pain. But they couldn't care less, Magnus stood to give the Lightwood some privacy and went to the door which stood Jem. Clary and Simon followed later with Luke happily to see the family reunited and asking him questions which he didn't remember any of them. They told him the whole story and Magnus smiled at the view in front of him.
"Thank you." Magnus whispered at Jem and he nodded tapping his shoulder. "Jem." He called as he was about to leave the apartment. "Yes Bane?" He asked after he turned. "I miss Will too." Jem's eyes watered in tears but he held it in refused to show his emotions. He nodded with a smile and formed a portal to escape the memory of his dead parabatai. "I'll see you soon Bane, get it done quickly would you." He called before he entered the portal and Magnus chuckled, nodding his head softly with a large smile on his face.
