Like Legends Chapter 5 [Shadowhunters/Supernatural]

Alec has a past that not even his siblings know about and he had put out of his mind for years. When a vision comes to him one night he is dragged back into a different world of Shadows.

Like Legends Ao3 Link

Alec adjusted the strap of his bag on his shoulder as he looked around his room, making sure he had everything he would need and the note he was leaving this time was in place so hopefully his siblings wouldn’t freak out again and call Magnus in again.

He hadn’t seen the Warlock since he left Magnus’ loft a couple weeks ago and as much as he longed to go back and just collapse into his arms and tell him everything he knew he couldn’t. Alec pulled his stele out of his pocket and focused on the Grace that was still remaining inside of him, gritting his teeth as a he felt a new burn appear on his right thigh he drew the portal rune in the air in front of him with his eyes glowing brightly.

Alec pocketed the stele and with one last look around his room, he stepped through the swirling magic and out behind a tree in the middle of Kanas. Alec hitched the strap of his duffle bag up higher on his shoulder and started towards the main road, which according to Sam would lead him to a large underground bunker where he and Dean had finally set down roots in.

Alec wondered how much trouble he was going to be in when or if he returned to the Institute, but he brushed off the thought as he had more important things to deal with at the moment as a bunker came into sight with a familiar black Impala parked out front. Alec couldn’t help himself as he ran his fingers over the smooth finish of the car before he stepped down the cement steps and pounded at the metal door that was covered in wards, some he knew and some he didn’t.

The sounds of locks being unhinged were heard before the door was tugged open and Sam Winchester stood before Alec. A smile spread across the longhaired Hunter’s face at the sight of Alec before Alec was pulled into a tight hug that he returned with just as much strength.

“It’s really good to see you, Alec!” Sam stepped aside to let the Shadowhunter in after their hug broke. The smiles didn’t disappear as the two made their way down the staircase into the main section of the bunker where Dean and Castiel were sitting.

“Alec, man look at you! You really hit the puberty jackpot huh? You sprouted up like Sammy did!” Dean laughed as he pulled Alec into his own hug and like with Sam, Alec returned it fiercely, he was just glad these two were still alive and kicking.

“Its good to see you too Dean.” Alec chuckled as he was released and then inspected like a mother hen by the older hunter.

“Alec, it is good to see you again. I wish it was under better circumstances.” Castiel said as he held his hand out, still not one for hugs, which Alec totally understood.

“I feel the same way Castiel.” Alec shook the Angel’s hand and winced when the action jerked the burns on his arm. Castiel’s eyes narrowed for a moment before it was smoothed away and he stepped back.

“So you’ve been busy lately huh kiddo?” Dean passed Alec a beer as the four settled around a table after showing Alec a room for him to dump his things in and Alec tossed his leather jacket on the bed not wanting to overheat.

“It seems I haven’t grown out of being an Angel magnet.” Alec joked and the others chuckled remembering when Dean had deemed Alec that when they first met all those years back.

“So Gabriel is around and kicking somehow and Lucifer wants to juice you up on Grace for some personal reason?” Sam summed up what Alec told him shortly over the phone the day before.

“I still don’t know too much, all I know was that I got a vision from Gabriel and I followed it, together we broke him out and killed Asmodeus before he snapped and bam I was back in the Institute. Then a week or so later Lucifer appeared in my office and offered me more Grace and said something about how he wanted me to make friends with his son… Jack?” Alec cleared his throat at the end, noticing the way the three exchanged looks at the name.

“So it’s true, Lucifer really has a son?” Alec sank back in his chair as he absorbed the information.

“It’s a long story but yeah he does. Jack is nothing like Lucifer, he’s innocent and kind and is just working on controlling his powers, he’s barely even a year old even if he looks to be about your age now.” Sam explained while Dean chugged back some of his beer and Alec copied the action, needing something to ease the sting of the information.

“Okay… Okay I mean who am I to judge right?” Alec laughed as he tugged at the hem of his right sleeve.

“Alec, there is something else troubling you. That is why you are here, why you called us after Lucifer offered you more Grace.” Castiel leaned forward on the table and stared at Alec with those piercing eyes of his. Alec swallowed and looked down at his beer bottle suddenly feeling like a child, he looked up when Sam put a hand on his shoulder in comfort.

“We’ve all been through some crazy things, you can trust us, Alec,” Sam spoke softly but truthfully and Alec inhaled deeply.

“I may be a Shadowhunter, one of Raziel’s bloodline but not even Shadowhunter’s can hold amounts of Archangel Grace for long periods of time… I think my body is starting to give out.” Alec whispered as he pushed up his sleeves to show the trio the harsh looking burns on his skin.

“Damn,” Dean whistled at the burns and Sam narrowed his eyes as he took in the sight of the painful looking marks while Castiel looked directly at Alec without blinking.

“Lucifer did something when he came to visit, his eyes flashed red and the pain and burns receded, I think he can do something about this… He might be able to stop my body from giving out but I don’t trust him and I don’t believe he just wants me to meet and protect his kid.” Alec spat the fallen angel’s name.

“Smart choice kid, calling us instead of agreeing right away.” Dean praised and Alec nodded his head in reply.

“There are cracks in your soul, the Grace is seeping into your very being and is trying to work your body into something of a true vessel for itself. In the process, it is hurting and burning you from the inside.” Castiel reported as he blinked suddenly and Alec cringed at the words and what they meant.

“…So what do we do now? I rather like being alive you know.” Alec pulled his sleeves back down and curled his fingers around the now lukewarm beer bottle.

“Gabriel should be able to help, it is his Grace that is doing this to you. While we try to find him we can do some research here, maybe there is something here that can help or at least slow it down.” Sam suggested.

“Thank you,” Alec said honestly.

“Oh wait till you see the library we have here, you’re going to freak out,” Dean smirked at Alec who blushed as he remembered when he met the Winchesters.

He was all but obsessed with learning everything about this side of the Shadow world he could get his hands on, so he turned himself into a giant bookworm. He never got the chance back at the Institute when he started weapon training and running the Institute later on.

“Thank you, I really mean it, you guys… I hate to ask but can I meet Jack? He may know something or be able to help if he is Lucifer’s son?” Alec suggested and the brothers exchanged silent looks, having whole conversations. Alec remembered they did this a lot but he also knew because he did this with Jace and Izzy a lot.

“Why don’t you get some rest and tomorrow we can introduce you two?” Sam suggested and Alec nodded his understanding as he rose to his feet, feeling sluggish now.

“Get some sleep kid,” Dean ordered almost fondly and Alec shuffled down the hallway to where his room was and fell face first onto the pillow and was out like a light within moments.

One dragon for another...

Today marked the five day mark; the day Kana would succumb to the curse given to him for trying to protect his mother. A day that would see a child die for no reason.

Like hell Kaga was going to let Hel steal away a child without a fight. So she stayed close to Kana in her fox form, the nine-tails wanting to be ready for when Hel showed up to try to claim the dragon child. And also just to keep the poor boy calm; the nine-tails assumed that having at least one of his parents with him during this would be a good idea, and Vallite is busy helping with the search for the Summoner...

And when the time came for Hel to appear, the fox wasted no time in getting aggressive towards the death ruler, who seemed unphased by the angry fox.

“Move. His time has come.”

“No. You will not take this child!” Cue the kitsune’s tails to flare up, before she tried to charge towards Hel and attack her....Which seemed to have no effect. “Grrr.....” Cue the fox to attack again, only earning a slash from Hel’s scythe in the process, which knocked Kaga away and left the fox with a noticeable wound that stained part of her white fur and made it hurt to put any weight on one of her legs.

“Your effort and your breath - they are both wasted. Your time has come, child of dragons.”

Kana stares at Hel....before starting to growl just like Kaga did, despite not really being able to breathe; he is trying to refuse to go down without a fight...But that isn’t going to stop the scythe coming down upon him-

Well, perhaps a scaled arm taking the blow instead can stop it for now. Vallite hissed in pain, but the half-transformed dragon just glared at Hel.

“You....shielded him.”

Vallite made no motion to even show any interest in Hel’s words, or of her bleeding arm, simply standing between Hel and the child. She knows she cannot chase the embodiment of death away....but she won’t allow Kana to face death just because he protected her.

“Move.”

“...” The dragon just shakes her head, before staring at Hel, thinking over something. “....I’ll.....face death....before you take him......” Vallite starts to cough from using her voice, but still looking right at what is basically Death.

“.....Very well. You can take his place then.” Hel raised her scythe, and was quick to strike down the dragon before Vallite could even attempt to voice any opinion.

The dragon didn’t even get a chance to scream, though a growl came from Kana as he finally regained the ability to breathe easily, while Kaga was stunned silent, the downed fox just staring at Vallite’s body as she fell. Hel seemed to disappear as quickly as she appeared, leaving the foxes and dead dragon in silence.

“.......Mama...?” Kana was about to approach Vallite’s body, but paused and simply looked over at Kaga, who was silent, the fox slowly finding her way onto her paws, limping towards the dead dragon before laying down next to Vallite and just laying her head down on the dragon’s chest.

“...Mom, you’re bleeding.....” “.......” “.......” Kana is now rather concerned since the fox made no sign that she heard him, beyond looking towards him before closing her eyes. Causing Kana to choose to simply transform into his own beast form and run off to go seek a healer to treat Kaga.

-----------------

A couple hours later....

Kana had left his kitsune mother in the hands of the healers for now, not wanting to get in their way. The boy needed time to process what had happened.

He thought he was going to die.

To protect him, one of his mothers took a blow while trying to get Hel to leave. And the other......died due to taking his place without realizing that it was an option.

“.....Mama...” The dragon/fox child was quick to find a place to hide away from most other heroes before letting himself cry. He just lost one parent, and the other seems to have had something break given her silence after Vallite’s death. This wasn’t fair in his mind; neither was losing his own life, but after the past five days, he had partly accepted it. He didn’t expect anything that happened. He didn’t want to lose either of them; yes, they were not the versions of his mothers he knew back in his world....but he still didn’t want to see one die in front of him.

That’s why he took a risk and protected Vallite in the first place, even if it seems to have ended causing quite the mess.

Meanwhile, Kaga was back in her usual form, her left shoulder and arm wrapped up in bandages where she had been wounded. But she could care less about her own wound; she was still in shock from what happened.

She didn’t want Kana to die; she didn’t expect Vallite to go down instead. The nine-tails was grateful for their son evading death, but she wanted both of them to live, not for one to die in the place of the other.

......Though she was ready to face Death just to protect Kana. So maybe she has no room to judge Vallite’s choices, though it seemed like the dragon was unaware of the option. Kaga just sighed before taking her leave from the medical wing in the Order of Heroes, not wanting to wait around for a healer to clear her to leave; even if her wound still hurt, it was at least covered up now and treated besides a lack of magical healing for now, so it could heal on its own.

Besides, Kaga wanted to check on someone. After all, what would of been the point of trying to protect Kana if she didn’t make sure he was alright after that?

---------

The nine-tails found Kana hiding away from the main hall in the Order of Heroes, noting how sad the boy looked; understandable given that he just lost his mother. So instead of trying to speak to him right away, Kaga just walked over and sat down beside him, wanting to allow Kana the choice of saying anything or not. But after sitting there a moment, and actually seeing the younger kitsune hug one of her tails, she just sighed before choosing to speak first.

“......I’m sorry I wasn’t able to protect her. You didn’t deserve to see what happened.”

“......I’m ok.....It’s fine....” Kana tries to wipe away his tears and stop his crying, before feeling Kaga pat his back.

“No, you’re not; trust me, it’s better to cry than to act like you are not hurting.”

“But I need to be strong like yo-”

“Kana. Even the strong cry; just let it out, you will feel better once you get it out.” Kaga just wrapped a few more of her tails around Kana, before humming a bit to herself, only to stop when she felt the young kitsune hug her.

“......You’re sad too, right...? You were really quiet when Mama died.....”

“.....Of course I am; I envy your strength to cry honestly, and your bravery in growling at Hel, even if you were only just regaining your breath.” The nine-tails said in a quiet voice, returning the hug.

“....I didn’t want to go; and I wanted her to leave you and Mama alone, Mom.....”

Kaga smiles a bit at this. “Well thank you for trying to protect us; it takes a lot of strength to try to intimidate death itself.”

“.......Do you think that if we were able to use our strength together, we could of stopped her...?”

“......No.”

“Oh.......”

“That’s not because we aren’t strong however; Hel did not allow any of us to show our strength.”

“......She was cheating?”

“Clearly; which angers me. She didn’t even give Vallite a fair chance.....”

“.......Hey Mom?” Cue Kana to look up at Kaga’s face, still holding onto one of the nine-tails’ tails.

Cue Kaga to just get a questioning look on her face, saying nothing for now.

“.......Didn’t you sink once?”

“Yes......What’s your point?”

“If you can come back from that, can Mama come back too...?”

“.....” Kaga was silent for a few moments, before getting a smile on her face. “Hehehe.....Hel’s final struggles will be entertaining....”

“....Mom? What does that mean lady have to do with it?”

“Ah, simple; to rescue people like me and my sister, we had to be retrieved from where we sank. Since Hel stole her, perhaps we must retrieve Vallite from Hel’s realm.”

“And the final struggles....?” Kana is not too shocked by Kaga’s wording, but he is confused as to why she mentions that when Hel couldn’t be harmed by her.

“A fight will likely be involved in order to retrieve anyone from that realm. And I don’t intend on letting Hel go unscathed for what she did to you and Vallite.”

Kana thinks over Kaga’s words before looking determined. “I want to help! That way, I can try to make sure she can’t cheat!”

“.....Are you sure, Kana, even after what happened to you..?”

“Yeah! You said I was strong too, so that means I can help!”

“....You are your mother’s son; always eager to help even when it’s not your duty to do so. Very well; but stay close to me the whole time we are there, and if I tell you to retreat, you will retreat, got it?”

“Alright! Oh hey, maybe the others can help us find a way to where we need to go!”

“I think they are all busy looking for the summoner.....”

“Oh.....Well, maybe one of the other Askrs can help?”

“It’s worth a try....” Cue Kaga to look around, noting the lack of sunlight coming through the closest window. “But first....I think it’s your bedtime. We can start our search in the morning.”

“Awww.....But I want to start trying to find Mama now....” Kana complained as Kaga stood up, helping the young fox dragon up onto his feet.

“I get your eagerness, but you will only keep your strength if you get enough rest; I give you permission to wake me up tomorrow so we can get ready to start searching without you needing to wait for me to wake up by myself.”

Cue Kana to let out a fox-like whine and let his ears fold back. “......Can you tell me a bedtime story at least...?”

“If it will help you sleep, then of course.”

Granted, by the time Kaga led Kana to his room, the fox child was already yawning, but promised he could stay awake as Kaga told him a story. He was wrong, as he ended up falling asleep around the middle of it, but all the nine-tails did was quietly laugh and simply leave the room to let the boy sleep.

Kaga didn’t much enjoy returning to her own room for the night, given that she normally shared a bed with Vallite, but the kitsune simply buried those emotions for now.

It would just be for a few days hopefully. Then she wouldn’t have to worry about it, since Vallite would be back.

She just had to figure out how to kick Hel’s ass......
