You Got Me in Chains

-Benji-
Benji sat on the pier with a girl on his right, constantly offering her wrist to him. He swore that twilight was the best thing that ever happened to vampires. All the girls wanted to be fed on. Of course, Benji was slightly breaking the accords but who was going to stop him? Raphael? Raphael was a joke. Benji just wanted to have fun, drink blood and get a little frisky.

-Alec-
Alec was currently very overwhelmed. With Jace storming off because of the current news of being Valentine's son, Alec feared and worried about his parabatai. Not only that, he was having to train a new transfer this week. Something he was counting on Jace to help him with. Alec hasn't been feeling up to anything since Jocelyn's death and without Jace, he feels he will fall apart.

Son. Daughter. Brother. Sister. Father. Those words kept repeating in the young male's head every since he found out the truth. Ever since Valentine told him the secret. With a grunt of anger, Jace landed another blow to the punching bag in the gym at the institute. He needed something else, anything else to keep his mind off the fact that the most notorious villain in Shadowhunter history was his father. He wasn't sure what was worse, that, or being in love with his sister.

When news reached his ear of a secret blood den, Jace was the first one to hop on the case. He had been waiting all day, and now was the time in between day and night. Where vampires mostly let their guard down after being sated and preparing to hop into their coffin. After a quick shower and change of clothes, Jace headed out to the location his Intel provided.

Some of his friends vanished after hearing that Valentine was out and working, Elias assumed it was because they either were afraid, or they felt the rouge Shadowhunter could provide them with riches beyond imagination. So where did that leave Elias? Here. In New York City. Alone. Considering the lack of activity back home, and the increase out here, Elias was transferred from back home to here about a month ago. He explored the city and it's inhabitants, but now it was time to get down to business. Each institute had their own way of doing things and today he was going to learn just what was in store.

Entering the building, he was brought to the center of their HQ, mission control. He closed his eyes for a brief moment as he tried to remember the name of his tour guide on the paper before it went up in flames. "I'm looking for a Alec Lightwood. " He then announced, his British accent booming over the busying Hunters.

Benji let the girl go after she seemed to get woozy. He stood by the entrance of the den watching countless humans and other vampires walk past. He was bored of the same thing. he wanted a challenge, more fun. The blood was sweeter when it meant something.
The vampires here were happy with that small chase but Benji could never do it.

As if fate were taunting him, he smelled Nephillem blood.

Alec raised his head from the computer as his name was called. He really was doubting himself at this point and with Jace gone, it worse than before. "I'm Alec. You must be Elias," he said uninterested if anything else was going to be said. "We'll do most of our work in the institute over the next week."

The specific den he arrived at had been under surveillance before but it yielded no positive results. Jace knew by entering now, when it's most active, he might as well be committing suicide by vampire as their numbers were surely greater. But would it really be that bad? No one would truly miss the son of Valentine. Sliding his Seraph Blade into it's holster, Jace ventured further into the establishment. He entered through the back door and his eyes immediately narrowed at the sight. He walked over to the bar. So many vampires breaking the Accords. It was a set up for Jace to go in, under cover and find out information, etcetera, but the male failed to alert his team of the plan.

As his eyes landed on the other, upon Alec turning to face him, Elias couldn't help but smirk some. "I believe the Gods have devious plans in mind. " He spoke with a grin. He and the raven haired male before him had became well acquainted many moons before. Elias, however doubted Alec remembered him unless the straightforward tone of his voice is how he treated all of the transfers. 'Perhaps things will be interesting after all. ' The male thought to himself. "And for the bit of work that will be done outside of the institute? " He then pondered aloud with a light smirk.
