I woke up just like any other day, covered in bruises and cuts. I know what your thinking "that poor girl is being abused! " But I'm not. My step dad is in the military and trains me like any other soldier. The first couple times I went to school with bruises people thought I was being hit by my dad. So after many, many, many different meetings they came to the conclusion that i'm okay, and was told I was just getting pushed too hard.
I should probably tell you who I am. I'm Clary Fray, I'm 17 and an artist; just like my mother. I live with my brothers, Jonathan and Sebastian, my mother, Jocelyn, and my step dad Luke. I go to Idris highschool in New York City.
I get woken up be jin pouring a bucket of freezing cold water over my head and, me being Clary Fray, I scream and kick Jon in the groin. When he bends over I rush into the bathroom and start getting ready for the day. I hate being the new girl, I mean who doesn't but Luke said that we wouldn't be moving for a while. So I should " make some new friends " Oh if were just that easy. I know I have to at least try but no one likes the new girl straight away. Especially when they find out her dads a soldier. They tend to run away at that point and I never talk to them again. But this time I'm going to say it at the start of class, just to see how they'll react to the news. I wonder who'll actually want to be friends with my. And if they do; they're well and truly crazy.
