A/N: Hello! This is Morgy Elizabeth (formerly morgypooh123)! This is my first Mortal Instruments story, so I hope its good! I don't have much to say about it, so I hope you enjoy!


"Clary, what exactly are you proposing here?" Maryse asked.

The Lightwoods, Jace, and Clary were all in the library discussing the next step in what to do about Sebastian.

"Well," started Clary, "I think that until we have some kind of plan that will actually have some kind of plan that will actually work, it would be safe for us to hide where Sebastian will never think to find us. For example, my high school."

"You don't go to high school," Jace pointed out.

"Okay, the high school I went to before I found out I was a shadowhunter." Clary rolled her eyes.

"Wait, wouldn't the Institute be the safest place for us?" Alec questioned tiredly.

"It's also where Sebastian would know to look for us. We can't really hide in here until we come up with something better," Clary pointed out.

"I agree with Clary," Isabelle said. "Plus, high school would be an interesting adventure."

"This is insane. Mom, what do you think?" Alec asked.

Maryse thought for a moment. "It's not a bad idea. It's not like the Clave is ready to protect us at the snap of a finger. You could at least give it a try."

"You're kidding," Alec said, looking around the room.

"I don't think she is," Jace said. "Clary, you wanna explain how we are gonna do this?"

"Sure," Clary replied with a smile. She then dove into how everything was going to go down.

Walking into the school she used to go to everyday, Clary felt out of place. She was different now, no longer a weak little 15 year old girl. She was older, both in age and maturity. Not to mention, much stronger.

Shifting the bag on her shoulder, she walked towards the front office.

"Hello, my name is Clary Fray. I went to school here last year, and I haven't really been back, but I should still be enrolled," she said hesitantly to the front secretary.

The lady typed a few things into her computer then looked back up. "Yes, Clary Fray. You are in the system. However, you will need to somehow explain your absence."

"I was studying privately with a small group of people. They plan to enroll here soon, so I would expect a phone call from Maryse Lightwood. If you ask her, she will tell you that I was studying with her."

"She will have to fax over some paperwork, but okay. I'm printing off the schedule you were supposed to have this year, and I assume you know your way around. Your teachers will be notified, and they will do the best they can to help you get caught up."

"Thank you."

Clary took the schedule and went up to her regular homeroom. The homerooms stayed the same until graduation, and she was grateful for that.

Walking in, she felt all eyes on her.

"Miss Fray, thank you for joining us in the middle of the school year," her homeroom teacher, Mr. Winters, said sarcastically.

"My pleasure," she said sarcastically. Old Clary wouldn't dare say that. New Clary picked up a few tricks from her boyfriend.

Once she sat down, the girl she sat next to for her entire school career leaned over and asked, "Where have you and that Simon kid you are friends with been? You didn't come to school and everyone thought you two ran off together."

"I never would have thought people would have noticed us disappearing," Clary said.

"Well, at first no one did, but when people noticed that both of you were gone, that's when the rumors started."

"I hate mundanes," Clary muttered under her breath.

"What did you say?" she asked.

"Uh, teenagers. I hate teenagers," Clary quickly said then sat back into her seat. This day was going to be long, and she couldn't wait until Jace and the others would join her.


Should I continue? Is this any good? Leave a review!
