Ian went for his classes, the day passed.
When it was night, he went to a bar. He had never visited one before but he is doing that today cause he is meeting with isabelle here.
"Over here" Isabelle waved her hands. He got to her side and greeeted.
"how's your day been little guy?" she said
"little guy? I'm around two inches taller than you and you calling me little guy?" He said all these in his mind and answered her " fine. Why are we here?" She replied him "We need to go to the institute, this will be your first day at work and you also get to chose a weapon today". "Day?" Ian asked, puzzled. "Don't worry, you'll understand soon" she answered and continued "come on, the owner of this bar is a shadowhunter and this place has one of the portals to the institute.
"Father is currently busy but I can help you with whatever you need" a young man appeared and said.
"Still sneaking up on people and eavesdropping on conversations I see?" Isabelle said, with some emotion you may call anger mixed with it.
"Still not over it, pfft, We were just kids and...what was there to see by the way?" Adrian said carelessly
"You....." she said, almost couldn't contain herself, she just wanted to give him a beating but she couldn't, not right here. So she calm down and said "let's go".
Adrian led them to an underground and they entered a room. The portal was here, right in front of them. Ian could sense an energy around the portal but he couldn't say it was only spiritual energy, he could sense other energies, even the ones known by mundanes.
He was wanted to walk toward the portal and pass through it when adrian held him back, looked at Isabelle, with a teasing face and shook his head. Isabelle just looked away in annoyance.
"If you go through the portal without knowing where you want to go, you'll be lost forever" Adrian warned him.
This time Isabelle took his hand and they went through the portal.
