Years had past and there was a great battle going on between the Shadowhunters and the Downworld. The battle lasted for weeks and The Shadowhunters could feel they are almost losing this war against them considering how many fatal casualties and although Magnus and Luke is on their side but they had such few followers to fight with them.

They scurried away into the ruins of what it used to be a Castle of White but now what remains is just walls to protect them. "We're outnumbered. We can't keep doing this anymore." Jace claimed already pissing Magnus off to no end but he means well. "I know that blondie, shut up and let me think." Magnus says leaning against the wall to take cover and although his magic is depleting, he still find strength to hold on and helped this siblings.

Years ago after Alec's funeral, Magnus had chose a life of silence and removed himself away from this family back to Edom. He can't forgive them for what happened to Alec and he wished he could summon the angel so he could know what happens to Alec. But although months of trying to get in touch with Raziel, he failed miserably until one night he thought of ending his own life, he finally emerges into his half wake being.

"Let go. Let go all of your anger and your plan on seeing him. There is nothing that you could do to bring him back Magnus, nothing." Raziel claimed and Magnus broke down in tears kneeling right in front of the angel which surprised him the most. The great Magnus Bane, The Prince of Hell himself kneeled before the Angel and it's greatly humiliating on his part as the future ruler of Edom. "I beg of you. Please. I need him." Magnus plead in tears but Raziel knows how much Alec meant to him. So he bowed down right in front of Magnus and lifted his chin to face him with his fingers.

Their eyes locked and Magnus could see the gold in his eyes almost like a fire burning, "Soon. Time will past. You need to make sure that the war isn't happening." He whispered and Magnus eyes widen, "What war?" He asks and slowly he got his grip back on the reality. "There is a war coming Magnus, you need to be prepared. All of you." He warned him and before Magnus could replied, Raziel let his wings flapped open and it threw him back on the ground.

"We'll see each other soon enough." He says right before he ejected himself back to the Heaven sky and left Magnus on the ground clueless. That was the time he knew he had to go back and warned these people about this but he could sense that it was already in plot.

When the rumors of the great battle being whispered, it started at the German institute with raids of Downworld invading the institute under a stealth attack and they were outnumbered due to that sudden event. It took them few days to bring down the whole institute and finally crumbled into pieces. It wasn't the usual Downworlder that consists of Werewolves, Warlocks nor Fae creature that lead this battle, it was something else.

The creature is human like only it looks like half fae, with ears sharp and their build is strong and huge like the werewolves creature. Their hunger for blood is as addictive as the Vampire children and it made them wonders, who created this creature in the first place.

"Jace." A sudden voice broke Magnus from his trance and he turned sharply at Izzy holding on Clary by her side limping. "Clary!" Jace yelled as he grabbed her side and carried her into safety. They moved swiftly towards the underground that Magnus had covered his magic with to protect them and hides them. One thing that they are glad about this creature is that they are not fighting with magic, but they are immortal and the only thing that could kill them is by decapitation or else they would be fighting till the end.

"We need a plan to get the hell out of this place." Izzy says and Jace was putting Clary on the table stone to check on her. Magnus pushed him away knowing well he can't do anything but activating her runes to fix her. He clicked his tongue at him but soon moved out of the way to let him healed her.

"Magnus, it's okay. I'll just use my rune. You're exhausted." Clary told him but he won't budge and continued to heal her with his magic. "Nonsense biscuit, it's fatal wound and you should know better than to tell me your rune would fix such injury." Clary smiled at his attempt but knows he means well.

"I found this." Izzy says pulling out a piece of paper in her hand and it was crumbled in folds from inside her tight pockets. She showed to Jace and Magnus saw it by his side considering Jace is not leaving Clary side anytime soon. "Is it what I think it is?" She asks them and Magnus didn't bother to respond but instead continued on working to heal Clary's wound.

"An angel? Is that a soul sword?" Clary asks after she got a better look at it. "No, it's not." Magnus replies after he is done and exhaled in tiredness. He almost stumbled in his feet but Jace pushed him back by his palm and he steadied himself.

"It's Archangel's sword, the flaming one." Magnus says still holding on to the table with his arm straightened and his vision blurred. He swallowed his throat dryly feeling the thirst and the hunger creeping up in him although the Shadowhunters has rune for their nutrition and they could lasted weeks on it, Magnus barely could summon food or water for the sake of keeping his energy.

"The angel is a prophecy. They said that it was the last call of help in a great battle among men and he is the savior." He continues stepping away from them and Jace scoffed, "That is so cool." He says and Magnus shook his head, "That's rubbish. A blatant irony of hope and misery thinking that they would give a crap about any of us. They are just sitting up there waiting for us to die. Wake up Lightwood, no help is coming, only us." He says and Izzy can see how he tried so hard not to break.

But then Magnus could feel the pain shooting in his head and his heart felt like a sword twisting inside the cavity. He palmed his chest feeling the tightness grew and before he could say anything, his body fell to the ground and darkness welcomed him.

"Magnus."

"Wake up darling."

"I love you. Always."

That voice was so soft, and yet so familiar. Magnus tries to open his eyes but failed. He felt his eyelid weighs thousand pounds and he was ready to welcome his death if he needed too. Truth is, he was tired, he did almost gave up and ready to let go. For years he had been thinking about letting go and yet, here he is, fighting for the person who wasn't even here and worth fighting for.

"Magnus. Open your eyes sweetheart." 

The voice whispered again and he could feel the breeze over his face and a soft kisses planted in between his eyebrow softening the worry line that had permanently placed over his eyes. "Alexander." He whispered and another kiss planted on his lips. It was so soft and so- longing.

He finally opens his eyes to find himself laying in the middle of the field covered with grass and dandelion. He looked to the side finding the person stood over him still blurry and he tried to rub his eyes to clear his view.

Slowly, he could see, the person he had been longing to see in years. The person that was the reason he fought after everything, the person he wished he could find some peace in knowing that they might see each other again in other life. "Alec?" He whispered and the moment Alec's face became clear right in front of him, he wrapped his arm around his neck pulling him into a tight hug.

"Oh Heaven Alec! I miss you so much." He whispered feeling Alec's arm wrapping his body tighter as he did the same to him. "I miss you too Magnus." Alec whispered in his ears as he nuzzled his lips over Magnus' neck. "Are you real? Is this a dream?" Magnus pulls back to see him and cupped his cheek in between his hand.

"I'm in between. Magnus you're dying." He says and Magnus could understand why he could see him now. "I don't care. I get to see you." He says and tears starts to pool in his eyes and Alec leaned to press his lips over Magnus. Their kiss deepened as Magnus leaned their forehead together letting a sighed of relieve of seeing Alec before him. "I think I'm ready now. I'm ready to let go. I'm ready to die Alec. I get to see you one last time. It's more than enough." He says and Alec stroked his thumb over Magnus cheek. He leaned into Alec's warmth palm remembering how much he missed his touch.

"Not yet Magnus. We are not done yet. You need to fight this battle. We are nearly there." Alec says and Magnus pulls back from his touch with a confused look. "What do you mean by that." He asks him and Alec sighed in front of him. "We need to kill the monster who created this creature and his blood linked to every single one of his creation. Killing him means ending this war." He says and Magnus cocked his head to the side. "Who is he then?" He asks and Alec wanted to say further but the thunder cracked into the sky and it diverted Alec's attention and had his eyes glued to the red sky above them.

"What is it?" Magnus asks pulling Alec by his chin to face him and Alec had tears in his eyes. "It's breaking apart. The Heaven will fall if we didn't kill him. What he did upset the nature and the law. I did the same thing but it wasn't a mass casualty, it's more like a crack in the screen. What he did, it was shattering and beyond repair. Magnus we need to stop him or else."

Magnus can feel the trembling in Alec's hand as he cupped Magnus cheek. He held his wrist and found his skin was clear and no marks nor scars left on his wrist. His eyes found Alec's stares and they both leaned against each other's forehead and both shared a breath of exhaustion.

"I love you Magnus Bane." He whispered as he leaned towards Magnus lips and Magnus melted into his kisses. "I love you Alexander." He replied pressing his lips over his again and slowly, Alec let his hand pulls away from Magnus gripped and when Magnus opened his eyes again, he was back in the underground room with Jace, Clary and Isabelle hovering above him.

"Magnus? Are you okay?" He asks and Magnus smiles earning them a confused look towards each other. His eyes glistened with tears as they helped him up and he sat there on the ground. "I saw him." He whispered and they all looked at him like he had grown two heads.

"I saw Alexander. He told me we need to stop the guy who did this. His death will end all of this madness." He says and Jace smiled and Magnus could see him holding back his tears. "We just need to find him then." He says and Magnus nodded at them.

Magnus had rested well enough and now he is determined to find this person and killed him. He creates a portal for them all to escape and although Clary protest and wanted to make the portal herself, Magnus insist on doing it himself.

The moment they stepped out from the portal, they all ended up in the New York Institute and was greeted by their little brother Max. "Guys! You're back!" He says and Izzy was the first to hug him. He had grown into a much older after years and started his training at the academy before the war started. Now he became their intel in the institute using his brilliant mind to help them tracked down this person.

"Where's mum?" Izzy asks and Max sighed, "The chapel." He signed and they all stood there in silenced and Magnus was the first to excuse himself before headed out from their awkward reunion.

Magnus headed towards the same path he had been going since Alec's death and it was none other than his old bedroom. He found peace being in the room although Alec is no longer living inside he can still feel his presence in it. He pushed open the door of the bedroom and stepped inside inhaling the scent that he had missed after all these years.

He closed the door behind him and starts removing his dirty jacket before leaving himself topless only in his bottom. He sat on Alec's bed eyeing the picture on the dresser before his eyes caught at the polaroids of him and Magnus together at the fair.

He stood up picking the polaroid from the corner of the mirror rubbing the pad of his thumb over Alec's face with a smiled over his face. "I miss you darling." He whispered and his moment was interrupted by someone knocked on the door of the bedroom. He immediately placed the photo back and wiped the tears in his eyes before letting the person to enter.

The moment the door open revealed Max with an iPad in his arms pressed against his chest and he smiled at him. "Max, anything?" He asks and he stepped inside with his gaze lurking around every corner of the room. "I thought I could talk to you for a sec?" He says and Magnus nodded letting him stepped further into the room.

He showed Magnus the footage of the war scene and right by the corner there was a man, covered in a black cloaked with hair white as paper and his face is facing the other way and then he disappeared into thin air like he never existed.

"What the fuck?" Magnus cursed and Max turned off the footage waiting for him to respond. "I think he is responsible for this war." Max says and Magnus nodded. "He said that too." Magnus whispered earning Max a confused look, "Who did?" He asks and Magnus shook his head at him. "No one." He lied and Max didn't buy any of his word.

Max sighed putting his iPad over the table and sat by the edge of his brother's bed placing his face in his palm and sighed longly. "I miss him so much. He would know what to do if he still here." He says and Magnus smiled weakly before he joined him on the bed.

"I dreamt of him a lot, lately." He says and it caught Magnus attention. "Always the same dream, him standing at the end of my bed, watching over me but then he disappeared." Max tried to tell him but Magnus stopped him, "Max, it's not a dream. It's him. You know he will always watch over you." Magnus says and Max turned his head sharply at him.

"I saw him earlier too, he warned me about this guy, he told me that his blood linked to every single creature he ever created and killing him would bring an end to this war. Or else the Heaven will fall." Magnus tried to tell him and saw Max eyes caught staring at the corner of the bedroom behind him.

"What is it?" He asks turning his head around but found nothing is there. "I think I'm going crazy." He says and lowered his eyes down at his trembling hand. "You're not, tell me what's wrong. I might be able to help." He offered and Max turned his gaze back at Magnus beside him but shortly after his eyes still focused on the corner behind Magnus.

"I can see Alec." He says and Magnus had his eyes widen in shock. "He's standing there behind you, staring at us." He says and Magnus could feel the coldness behind him and it made the hair on his neck stands sending shivers down his spine.

"Max, you're not crazy. You were brought back from the dead, it must have some consequences. If it's true you can see him, asks him questions. Something only you and him would know so he would prove himself that he is really your brother, not some incubus messing with your mind."

It took Max a while before his eyes focused back on the shadow of his dead brother, he wanted to ask him about his death but then Alec's face dropped, "He's coming." Alec says and then disappeared like dust in the wind.

"Who's coming?" Max whispered although Alec is no longer there and the moment he did, there was a screamed coming from the hallway earning both Magnus and Max a scared look. Magnus grabbed one of Alec's long sleeves black shirt in his closet and put them on before he opened the door to see what the commotion is about.

Everyone is running, either from something or towards something and Max followed Magnus from behind and Magnus not letting him out of his sight. They reached the centre of the institute before their eyes caught at the person standing right in the middle with Clary in his arm and Jace and Izzy already stand by with swords and whipped ready.

"Jonathan." Magnus called and seeing him smiled his black tarry smiled pressing his sword over Clary's neck. "Did you like my show?" He asks and Magnus stepped down to get closer. "Did you cause all the war?" He asks and Jonathan smiled at him. "Aren't you proud of what I could do? We would make a pretty good team you and I." He says pressing his swords deeper cutting Clary skin and blood trickled down on her neck.

"I'm just here to get my sister. Step in my way, death will find you." The moment he says the creature they had feared emerges in between them and starts destroying everything and killing every single Shadowhunter that got in it's way. It felt like everything moves too fast and by the time they could react, Jonathan already had Clary by her arm and pulled her away from all of them.

Jace didn't waste time and followed Jonathan towards his exit and Izzy and Magnus joined him. "Max, make sure mum is alright." Izzy warned him but he won't budge. "Mum can handle herself. You guys need me." He says and Magnus sighed pushing him back on his chest. "Max, this is not your fight. Please. We can't lose you too." He says but Max pushed Magnus' palm away from his chest with a stern look on his face.

"This is the last time you guys abandoned me and look where it got us. I was killed and because of that I lost my brother. We are only strong if we are together so stop telling me to stay behind from this fight. WE are all in this together." Max told them and he can see the proud in his sister's face before she nods at him.

"Pick your weapon." She offered as she pulled the wall of the armory and he can see the weapon laid in many shapes and sizes. He didn't think twice before he chose the okinawan sai set. He flipped it over his finger expertly earning Izzy a proud smirk on her face before they nodded at each other.

They ran towards the graveyard finding Jace fighting his battle with Clary by his side and relieved washes over their face before the creature starts coming up and stops them from killing Jonathan.

Magnus and Izzy back to back covering each other with Max by their side trying to kill the creature the best they could and they could feel the fight is bias seeing more and more creature coming their way and they knew they are outnumbered again.

"Magnus, it's suicide." Izzy says and Magnus knew exactly what she meant. "We fight till the end Isabelle, even if we died today, we died honorably and there is no going back. This is our home, we protects it however it should." Magnus told her and she held the seraph blade tighter in her hand with the whipped in the other.

They fought harder than any other days they are in battle. She was right, it was suicide when the creature starts throwing Max and Isabelle to the side and they crashed into one of the grave stones and held Magnus by his neck raising him above the ground. His feet dangled in the air and his magic is depleting in power and Magnus can feel his death is coming when the creature's fangs exposed and wanted to bury deep into Magnus' neck.

It wasn't until a crack of thunder separates them both and Magnus fell on the ground but seconds later the creature head fell on his side and he hurriedly kicked it away before his eyes landed at the tall person towering above him with his wings flapped widely before him shining brightly right before his eyes. "Alexander?" He whispered under his breath and he handed his palm to help Magnus rise from the ground. Magnus took his hand and caught his smiling at him. Seeing Alec standing wearing that gold armor suit with his raven hair standout in between his suit and his angel wings that folded on his back.

His wrist is covered with layers of white cloth wrapped securely around his forearm and his hand is holding on to the flaming sword just like in the pages of the book Izzy torn. He looked up to meet Alec in his eyes before it caught him, "You're the prophecy!" He yells and Alec raised his eyebrow at him. But before he say anything else, Alec wrapped his arm around Magnus waist and pressed his lips together.

"Let's talk later, we got a devil spawn to kill." He says before he swung his blade above Magnus's head and he ducked to cover only to see the blade cuts through another creature's head. Alec didn't waste anymore time and more angels joined the battle covering the ground and inside the institute helping them to fight this war and a sliver of hope was felt at that moment.

Alec flew towards Jace fighting off Jonathan gripped and wanted to swung his swords at him but somehow he could sense him and placed his palm mid air sending Alec back and hits the wall. He groaned spitting out the blood that starts to pour from his mouth and raised himself again.

"Well isn't this nice. The parabatai's united." He says and Jace couldn't help before he wrapped his arm around Alec's neck and tears pooled in his eyes. "I know. I know." Alec whispered cupping his brother's cheek in his palm before turning his gaze back towards Jonathan who still had Clary in his grip.

Alex and Jace held their sword firmly in their grip shoulder to shoulder aiming at Jonathan right before them and somehow they could feel their bond was stronger than before. They always had each other's back in battle and this time, Jace knows he will always has Alec's.

They lunges at Jonathan that had Clary tossed to the ground next to him and swords clanking at each other. They were strong but somehow Jonathan is stronger and Alec wonders where he got his strength from. They fought and felt like hours and there is no end to any of this.

Jonathan stabbed Jace by his shoulder and he screamed in pain before Alec stabbed Jonathan right on his stomach but it seems like it does nothing to him nor his body. He groaned pulling the sword out and the blood is tarry black like Edom's pit.

He grabbed Alec by his neck and his skin sizzles burning into Alec's skin. "Your holy blood does nothing to me. I live in pain and misery to even feel your blade runs through mine!" Jonathan told him and held Alec's neck tighter in his gripped. Alec gaped his mouth apart trying to break free and finding air to breathe but he can feel how strong Jonathan is and he almost gave up.

It wasn't until someone stabbed Jonathan from behind and he groaned letting Alec goes free before he turned to see it was Max standing behind him and the blade pierced through his chest but still does nothing to him. He grabbed Max by his neck and tossed him to the side hard causing him to fell unconscious and before he could turned to see Alec, he already disappear and a sudden blue wave formed from under the ground locking himself in his stand.

He could see Magnus from distance coming towards him with blue spark emitting from his palm and he was reciting some words under his breath holding him in place. "You're a disgraced! Shame to your own kind Magnus! Fight me like you're supposed too!" He screamed and Magnus could barely hold on to his magic considering he is already exhausted and almost losing grip but a sudden whipped cracked wrapped around Jonathan's ankle hold him in place and he can see Isabelle helping him with her whip.

Jace grabbed Clary from the side and pulled her away from Jonathan only to have him more furious than earlier. "She is mine! I will make her my queen and she will rule the world with me!" He screamed and Izzy can feel her whip losing gripped. She could sense that her whipped is breaking from inside like it was burn to pieces and it was waiting for it to break. They are holding on to the last piece of their hope hoping it would break Jonathan that is indestructible and their prayer is answered.

Alec flew from behind him and held his sword firmly in his grip before he swung over Jonathan's neck and it split in half. It feels like a tightened string finally was loose and the burden of the weight it carries suddenly disappeared when it happened.

Jonathan eyes stares straight towards Clary in Jace's embrace and more tar poured out from his mouth as his head fell to the ground leaving his body headless and finally he kneeled on the ground and it crumbles into pieces like ashes from the burnt log.

Suddenly the whole institute fell silenced and the sounds of sword clanking and growling from the creature stopped. One by one it fell and crumbled into fading ashes and it blew into the wind.

"Alec!" Max yelled and before Alec could react, he wrapped his arm around Alec's waist. Although he is taller now but he still couldn't reach his elder brother's height and Alec sighed in relieved in his embrace. Just then from his other side, Izzy wrapped herself around Alec's waist hugging them both together in one tight embrace.

Jace came shortly after letting Clary and Magnus hugged each other and joined his siblings for a hug. Alec couldn't stop the tears coming down on his face and seeing his siblings in his arm is everything he'd ever wished for. "I miss you guys." He whispered before leaning his head towards the crook of their neck and hugged them in a tight embrace.

Magnus broke into tears seeing those siblings finally had their final hugs that they all longed to have in those years of missing Alec. It was the most beautiful moment he could ever see in history of Lightwoods. Siblings united in war of heaven and hell with his dead brother bestowed his presence as an angel soldiers to help them win this war.

"Alec?" A sudden voice called pulling them away from their hugs and his eyes caught at his mother walking towards them. He can see the years had caught up to her and she is older than the last time he saw her. She doesn't look like Maryse Lightwood he had known. Fierce and strong woman. She looks disheveled and unkempt with her hair barely tight into a ponytail and a loose strand escapes from the side.

Her eyes are covered with dark circles and her lids are swollen. Alec wonders are the tears for him but he couldn't care for now. She is his mother and her presence like this hurts him. "Mum." He called and Maryse picked up her pace running towards him.

Alec thought she might told him to stay away from them but the moment her arm wrapped around his neck, he broke in tears.

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry baby." She whispered into his ears and Alec wrapped his arm tight around her body before she pulls away from him. "I'm so sorry. I wasn't the mother you deserves, I was cruel. I was wrong to treat you like that. I'm so sorry." She cupped Alec's cheek in her palm and Alec let his tears fall wetting his face.

"I forgive you mum, long before. I'm sorry for what I did. I know you would be happier if Max is alive so I had to do what I had too as a son." Maryse cupped his cheek tighter pulling his gaze towards her eyes, "You are my son, I know I should have fought for you harder than anyone else but I was a fool and a selfish being for doing that to you." Alec smiled at her before she pulls him by his neck and hugged him once again.

"Time to go." Raziel came from behind Alec still hugging his mother in his arm and his gaze turned sharply. "Please, give me more time. I need to say my goodbye." He says and the moment he did, his eyes landed at Magnus. He smiled before Alec crashed his lips towards his and they are lost in their kisses.

"I'll see you in my dreams love." Alex whispered leaning their forehead together with Magnus holding on to him like his life depend on it. "Please don't go Alexander. I need you." Magnus whispered and Alec wiped the tears that fell on Magnus cheek. "I love you, remember that." He whispered before leaning his lips towards Magnus again.

He pulls away from Magnus gripped although he fought not wanting to let him go but he had too. Alex stood beside Raziel side and his eyes stares at each and one of his family, "Take care of each other, know that I love you all. We will see each other soon enough." Alec smiled at them and in a swift move, he and Raziel had gone disappeared into thin air with another cracked of thunder above them and slowly the sky had turned from amber to brightest blue and it was a beautiful day.
