Jonathan Morgenstern gazed at the beautiful angel before him her green eyes shimmred in the lights of the white still room her fiery curls draping her face. A top her brow sat a thin elven crown silver matching the angels dress metallic silver that wound her strong warrior body in its mesh. The angel was no more that his younger sister Clarissa. So captavated by her beauty he bowed his head in a gentlemanly manner to the angel before him . A smile emenates from her lips she too bowing her head in an elegent curtsy. "Sister" Jonathan breathes "you are most beatiful". He reaches for her waist her hand on his shoulder the other wound into his hand as his did into hers. The music begins gentle music within temptation - All I need. He held her close her head against his chest. A small smile on her face. Even in heels she was still so small but that just made her even stronger even more beautiful in his eyes. The music swept them under.
Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
when you hold me in your embrace
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear me down
You've opened the door now, don't let it close.
For a moment they could forget the choas in the burning world around them The wars, The death, The lost and alive and both where transported to a world where imagination had no boundaries. Where they had no boundaries.
I tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away, don't break me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don't tear me down
"Clary" he says "mh" she murmurs against his chest "look around" he says.
They where not alone the room was alive with the music they where dancing within a ballroom full of dancers. Clary lets a laugh escape as he spins her her dress in turn with her. The faces rush past their eyes as they are caught in the passing seconds of the music Isabelle and simon, Alec and Magnus. Her mother and luke hers eyes beaming with happiness. "Clary" he breathes "I need you". The music was ending and so was this chapter.
Don't tear me down for all I need
Make my heart a better place
Don't tear me down for all I need
He only saw her and she only saw him His gaze resting all over her "you are most beautiful" he mumurs again "as are you" clary whispers leaning in her lips at his ear "and I forgive you sebastian" she whispers. Then pain struck his torso . . .
The music still played faintly it rippled in and out.
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear it down, what's left of me
Make my heart a better place
Make my heart a better place
As the song ran its course another began full of beatiful simple melodies.
(Fairground by John Talbot begins)
The angel was above me I could hear her cries. It was wrong his angel shouldent cry. He tries to speak but is stuck between the deep waters of life and death "save me" he tries to tell the angel "you are forgiven" was the only words he heard. Then he saw her. Her silver gown non existent replaced by shadowhunter gear though her emerald eyes and fiery curls remained the same the angel was fading from his eyes. "sister" he hoarsely gets out "you are forgiven" she says again "and I hope you forgive me". He gasps as the black water pulls him down again. "Clary?" he tries "Clary?!". His breath spasmed as his mortal wound spread and poisoned his body. "You . . ." he wheezes "Clarrissa . . . are . . . forgiven" he gags blood dripping from him spraying crimson over his onyx hair. Then it was over.
His angel watched as he took his last breath. His last bit of life before his first taste of death. His blood was spilled and now only the angel remains. The last of a line. The morning star who was an angel of light. She was Clarrissa Adele Fray.
And she was the last of the Morgenstern's.
