Better Than Revenge

Quick note:

Shoutout to Queenlynn actually going the extra mile and messaging me through my Insta to ask if I was still planning on continuing this story. Thanks for the wake up call, sis! Needed that. I really appreciated it. Hueheuheue and now, without further ado, (is that the right word?) the long overdue update:

     "Why that—" it took all four of them (Hime, Zharinu, Dylan and Kazuma) to keep Sebastian from causing a scene.

     "Not worth it, Sebastian," Hime kept repeating. "He's not worth it. Yeah, he isn't even that hot, and —"

      "Okay, for real, who are you trying to convince?" Her boyfriend asked. "'Cause right now, it sounds like you're trying to talk yourself out of beating him up."

       Sebastian felt a hand on his shoulder, making him turn around.

      "Clary wouldn't want you to cause a scene," the bespectacled Nephilim said. The eldest Morgenstern sighed just as Yusuke and Kyuu arrived.

      "Who knew going after demons was so much fun?" the dark-haired vampire asked with a huge grin, causing Sebastian to smile.

      "It gets boring after a while."

      After that, Sebastian wasn't sure who took over the conversation. His focus was solely on the blond shadowhunter who was still being mobbed by girls.

      'And it looks like the bastard is enjoying it! The fckng nerve of that—'

     A petite little brunette by Jace's side caught his attention. Sebastian had to admit, she was pretty, but he felt betrayed for Clary's sake. In the three years since his sister lived in Japan, she never dated anyone. Sure, she went on casual dates, and there was no shortage of suitors for her, but she had made it perfectly clear that she was not interested in a relationship; and Simon and the boys made sure that every guy in the Academy knew that.

      Sebastian watched as Isabelle forced her way through the sea of hormonal teenagers with her brother, Alexander Gideon, not far behind her.

     Of course Sebastian knew their names. Even back then when Clary was still going to New York Academy, he made it his personal mission to know everything about her friends — not that it was hard. His sister told him practically everything.

     "Yo Sebastard!" the annoyingly familiar voice of a certain Vampire called. Deciding it was better to leave the blond bastard alone, Sebastian turned his heel and jogged up to the small group who had apparently already left him.

      "Someone find a warlock so we can get the fuck out of here," the silver haired Nephilim ordered.

XxxxxxxX

      "Yes, yes that's why we're here. Please let us through," Jace had to use every ounce of his self control not to snap at all these Japanese Nephilim.

      'After all, they did save our Institute and Academy from burning to the ground.'

        "Everyone out of my way before I whip you all out!" Isabelle snapped, which thankfully worked.

       Hodge was talking to the Japanese Academy's principal and Institute in-charge, Taiga Lightningcoal, who was giving him a quick and short run down of what happened. Jace and the others decided that if they wanted details, that was where they had to go.
