It all started on a sunny day. It was way too hot and humid to go outside, so the residents of the New York Institute had decided to stick inside, hanging out in the entertainment room. Izzy was sitting on the far couch, painting her toenails. Simon was sitting next to her, reading from his codex (hoping to finally catch up to the rest of the Shadowhunters, or at least Clary). Magnus was sitting on the ottoman going through the latest vogue magazine, trying to figure out if orange is the new black. Jace and Ale were sitting in front of the huge flat screen t.v., furiously smashing the buttons of the Xbox controllers in their hands, trying to kill each other on their game. Clary was sitting (Rather reluctantly) on Jace's lap, while drawing. She was headed for the other couch but Jace had snagged her by the waist and pulled her onto his lap. She had given up the struggle when he wrapped his arms around her, with the controller in his hands, resting in her lap. The room was silent except for the scratch of Clary's pencil the flipping of the pages in Magnus's magazine, and the occasion blast from the t.v., followed but the curse word from whatever boy got killed.
Clary yawned and shifted in Jace's lap. In response Jace rested his chin on her head. Clary gritted her teeth. "Can you not?" she snapped out.
Jace just chuckled. "Why? Does it bother you?"
"Yes!" Clary nearly shouted.
Jace chuckled again, but removed his head. He hit some button on the controller and Alec let out a curse. Jace smirked, and while he waited for Alec to set up the game again, looked down at Clary's drawing. It was of some girl with a pair of the bigger, bulkier headphones on. The girl's eyes looked to be filled with pain and her wrists (which were in a prayer position in front of her) had small cuts on them. On the top, in some kind of fancy writing where the words 'Everybody wants to be with me, but I got all I need to feel invincible with my head phones on.' Jace was astonished yet again at the sheer talent that Clary had. He felt like he could actually feel the pain the girl was in. All Jace wanted to do was figure out why the girl was in such pain and help her with it. He wondered where Clary found the quote from, or if she just made it up.
While Jace was distracted, Alec took the chance to get back at him. He grinned as he started to repeatedly hit a button that caused his avatar's gun to be fired.
The sound of gunfire caused Jace to look up from the drawing just in time to see his avatar fall to the ground dead. Jace immediately hunted Alec's guy down to retaliate, after his guy got lives back.
The boys were so focused that they didn't notice the portal forming behind them. Clary was just as focused on her drawing that she didn't notice it either. But Izzy and Simon did, and they both looked up just in time to see the portal fully for. Magnus, feeling the surge of power looked up as well and twisted around in his seat so that he could get a betted look. A plucked within an inch of its life eyebrow rose as he saw a shape form. "You guys might want to see this," he said to the thee sitting up front.
All three of them raised their heads to see the portal look like it exploded in flames, and to have a delicate piece of paper float out of it. Everyone's eyes followed the paper float out of it. Everyone's eyes followed the paper till it landed on the coffee tale sitting in the middle of the awkward circle everyone sat in. The second the paper touched the wood, the portal flashed brighter and the sputter out, leaving a scorch mark on the wall behind it. Alec seemed like the only willing one to get up and get a closer look. (Jace tried to justify the fact that he didn't get up as well by telling himself that he had Clary sitting in his lap and it would be rude to make her move.) Alec slowly reached out a hand ad snatched up the piece of paper. His eyes scanned it and then both oh his eyebrows rose in surprise. "Holy Crap. It's a note from Raziel."
A stretch of silence followed until Izzy broke it. "Well! Just don't stand there! Tell us what it says!" She said in an annoyed tone.
Alec cleared his throat and started to read. "Um it says, 'Dear Clary, Jace, Alexander, Isabelle, Magnus and the mundane. IT has come to the Angels attention that some mundane somewhere has thoroughly documented you lives and thought into a best seller book series. Then into a movie, as well as soon to be t.v. show. We have sent you the books and the movie, and a couple of websites about you. We want you to read all the information on them, then report back to us in two months' time how bad the damage is and how much the mundanes know about the shadow world. Best of luck and keep hidden, Raziel and his Angels."
The second Alec finished reading the note, a second portal opened just like the first, but this time a cardboard box came flying out. It went flipping through the air and finally came to a stop by smashing into Simon's face, knocking him off the couch in the process. Jace snickered at the sight of the nerd sprawled out on the ground as Clary sighed. Alec went to pick up the box, while Izzy helped Simon back up onto the couch.
"Well, wouldn't you know? The gods actually have good taste!" Jace commented. He then turned to Clary and added, "Even they think that Simon shouldn't be a Shadowhunter."
Clary sighed. "Jace, I think that you are focusing on the wrong thing here. The more important fact is that there are books somewhere out there that has every little thing about us in them Everything Jace!" Jace frowned at that, and then turned to Izzy who had started to open up the box.
"Clary's right. We need to find those books and get rid of them…"
She all of a sudden stopped right in the middle of her sentence. "I take that back. Not out there somewhere. Right here!"
Everyone let out sounds of astonishment and went to inspect the books. Sure enough there were six sets of six books. All wrapped up in separate packaging. Izzy started to hand out the books till everyone had a set. Simultaneously they all ripped off the plastic and got an eyeful of the first book.
Simon was the first one to speak. "Um, why am I starring at a naked dude's chest?"
"Not just any naked chest," Clary added. "That's Jace."
Izzy raised an eyebrow at that. "Really? You recognized Jace by just looking at the chest?"
Clary blushed a deep red, as Jace burst out in laughter. "Well I don't blame her. My chest in amazingly sexy. And she does spend an awful lot of time starring at it." He laughed even more as Clary blushed an even deeper red.
"I didn't identify him from his chest!" She huffed. "I saw the blonde hair, and since he is the only blonde here, I automatically assumed it was him!" but nobody listened to her. They were all still laughing at her embarrassment. "Whatever." She grumbled.
Once everyone calmed down, Magnus started to talk. "I think that it is safe to assume that we don't need to read these, as they are out lives. We already know what happens."
"Yeah but they Angel Raziel says that we need to read them." Alec said with a frown.
"how 'bout we read them separately, by ourselves and focus on the other things. Ike the movie and the websites." Clary added helpfully and everybody agreed with her. Magnus hooked a finger in the corner of the box and dragged it towards him on the table. He looked inside and whistled.
"There are two laptops, a tables, and IPod, and three smart phones in here." He started to pull everything out and set them on the table.
Simoon gasped and said, "Those are high grade stuff too. Like really high grad. As in the-military-doesn't-even-have-these-yet high grade."
Clary was the first one to grab an electronic. She turned the IPod on and waited for it to load. When it was ready she noticed it was locked. "It's locked."
Jace looked over her shoulder and examined it. "Try Raziel." He said. Clary typed it in, but it was incorrect. She shook her head, and Jace looked one more time. "How about 'Jonathon Shadowhunter'" Clary typed the name in and the gadget accepted it. She instantly pressed the icon for the internet looking to type the address that was on the note. She noticed that a few were already bookmarked. She clicked on one then frowned. She looked up at Jace who had moved behind her. He grabbed the phone from her, with a surprised look on his face.
"Coming soon in one year. The last hour series. A sequel to the best seller series, The Infernal Devices. As most fans remember, The Infernal Devices deal with the ancestors of our favorite heroes Jace Herondale, Clary Fray, Simon Lewis, Isabelle and Alec Lightwood and finally by not least Magnus Bane. The series was set bout 195 years before the epic love adventure of the heroes. The Infernal Devices were about the harrowing tale of William Herondale, Tessa Gray and James Carstairs. It follows them as they fight they mighty Infernal Army the wicked Magister. It was also an amazing love tale of Tessa Gray finding out who she was and deciding between the handsome and troubled Will and the kind dying Jem. The last hours series follows the children of William Herondale (the head of the London Institute) and his immortal wife Tessa Herondale. Follow them as they begin their adventure in Chain of Thorns."
Everyone was stunned into silence. That is until Magnus spoke up. "Oh. My. God. Our lives are just some glorified love story?! This is the coolest thing that ever happened to me!"
Everyone else just started to freak out. Jace tried to get everyone to calm, down but nobody was listening to him. He sighed and rolled his eyes upward. Jace brought his fingers up to his mouth and whistled loud enough for the people in Idris to hear him. When everyone was quiet again he started to talk. "ok. There is no need to freak out over this. Everyone can just calm down. We will start with this investigation with watching to movie tonight. Then tomorrow everyone will start with reading the books, and after that we will check out this other website." Jace looked at the IPod he took from Clary to get the name of the other website. "This fanfiction website."
Everyone agreed with him then started to set up to watch the movie. Alec started to switch the t.v. from the game set to the DVD player., Magnus conjured up all the things that they would need to sit on or use. Such as more beanbag chairs and some super comfy blankets. He also got a surround sound system for the t.v. so that it would be like in a move theater. Simon went to hand out all the electronics so that everyone had one, while Izzy picked up all the books and put them in a pile for tomorrow. Jace went to unwrap the new movie and put it in and Clary made some drinks and popcorn for everyone.
Once everyone was finished and had curled up with their respective partners on the beanbag chairs or couches night had already fallen. Jace picked up the remote and punched play on the screen to start the movie.
When the movie was over, everyone was tired and ready to head off to bed. Clary had fallen asleep shortly after fake Jace, Clary, Alec, and Izzy went to save Simon. The movie had actually disappointed Jace. The fake Jace wasn't as good looking as the real one. Or at least that was what Jace had thought. Everyone else thought he was just as good looking. But the big problem he had was the fact that the events all got switched around, other events were added, while some were deleted. The scene that was supposed to be at Renwick's was at the Institute. And it was completely impossible for demons to invade the Institute. Also the fact that it showed that Clary managed to slip the mortal cup back into the card was a total fake. The last two things are the fact that Clary's mom was never kept at the Institute, and Clary never showed her signs of rune power that early.
Jace turned off the t.v. and picked Clary up to take to their room. Ever since the wedding with Luke and Jocelyn Clary had been staying with Jace. Her mom didn't want her to be alone, and had finally started to trust Jace. Although she didn't agree to Clary sharing a bed with him at first. She fought till she was blue in the face, saying that she didn't want her 17-year-old daughter to be living with her boyfriend. Clary's mom kept saying that she wasn't even an adult yet, and she didn't want her baby girl to end up pregnant then find out that she doesn't even love Jace. That was until clary threw the fact that Jace and Clary had already went at it in the demon realms, and in Shadowhunter belief, Clary was already and Adult. Clary then had added the fact that she was nowhere near ready to have kids and neither was Jace. He mother then reluctantly agreed to it. The fact that Izzy had said that Clary would probably have snuck into Jace's room anyway helped swayed her.
Jae laid Clary in the bed, gently shook her awake and told her she could go back to sleep as soon as she got dressed in some sleep wear. Clary sluggishly got out of the bed and dragged off her clothes, only to pull one of his t-shirts. Jace chuckled and got into the shower. After words he went into the bed and pulled Clary back into him. He buried his head into her hair, and sighed. It was going to be a long day tomorrow.
