The Appearance Of Strange Visitors

[T.H.G]

EXT. DISTRICT 12 - MEADOW/FOREST - DAY :

[An untended meadow gives way to a large chain-link fence that
stretches on forever. On the other side of it, forest signs line the fence]

["No Trespassing Beyond This Point." ]

Several people in the room look on with raised eyebrows.

" Uh—What happens if you DO get caught trespassing?? " Jace asked slowly, like he was afraid of the answer.

Peeta and Mentari glance at each other briefly. They seem to communicate with their eyes. Blue eyes meeting Hazel Green.

" Well, nothing good. It all depends on the when and the whom. If you get caught during the reaping times than definitely nothing good ; you'd be brought to the square and whipped for even attempting to defy the capital— if you get caught during winter time and they'd probably let you go with a warning, peacekeepers need to eat too " Mentari explained quickly. She looked uncomfortable as the room fell silent.

Simon gaped.

Alec and Magnus clenched their jaws.

["Violators Will Be Electrocuted." "Poaching is a Felony." ]

[Mentari, unimpressed, throws a stick at the fence. Nothing
happens. She crawls under it, scooting in unharmed. Mentari, unimpressed, throws a stick at the fence. Nothing happens so she crawls underneath it. ]

[EXT. FOREST - DAY]

[She heads for a felled log, reaches into its hollow. Feeling for something, then extracts it:
a bow, and arrows, wrapped in a sheath of plastic.]

Alec perks up happily looking from the screen to his daughter by his side. He hoped she took his talent for archery. Rafael didn't care for the skill; he chose twin blades and Maxwell was a warlock and obviously took after Magnus.

Mentari smirked at her excited looking father.

EXT. FOREST - CLEARING - DAY

[Mentari is a born hunter. A born climber too; she's quick, swift and makes zero noise as she walks through dead leaves in the forest with her bow and arrow slung on her back, she climbs a tall tree, navigating the branches like a monkey. ]

The Shadowhunter's in the room all share smug expressions.

" She has the Shadowhunter agility" Jace smirks proudly. Alec cocks his head to the side in deep thought. He wasn't so sure about that. She was remarkably agile yes, but it was more catlike than the agility of a trained soldier taught to be quiet and stealthy. She had Magnus' grace. 

EXT. TREE - BRANCH -

[She settles, 30 feet up. Great vantage-point. And there it
is, below - a wild turkey and draws back her bow and takes a breath]

Mentari sighed longingly. She missed the good ole days.

EXT. ANOTHER CLEARING - LATER DAY

[The dead turkey has been tied to a stick, resting by Mentari side. She's  perched upon a rock like a feline, scouting her next kill: ]

[Two large gray rabbits. Maybe 30 yards from here. Mentari
lines one up, draws back her bow. Tension in the string when, suddenly, a hand is placed over mouth. Someone has just come up behind her, out of nowhere. A boy, whispering:]

Magnus and Alec tense up looking at the sudden change on the screen. Mentari didn't seem to look worried about the sudden hand over her mouth, so they assumed she wasn't in danger. A voice whispered in the back of their minds; yet.
