*14 years earlier*
Clary ran quickly, tears streaming down her face. She ran and ran until there was no looking back. She stopped for a moment, when she thought of Jace, her mom, Luke, Izzy, Alec, and even Magnus. Her heart broke a little more at every step. She just knew she couldn't look Jace in the eye and tell him, no not after what had happened the last night. She stopped at a park bench breathing heavily and took a seat. Sighing, she wrapped a jacket closer around her, but she still felt the chills. She continued thinking of what she was about to do. She thought of the next day, when Jace woke up from being unconscious only to find Clary was gone. Luke and her moms horrified faces as they were told the news that Clary was gone. She shivered to think that they would all assume Sebastian had found and taken her, yet that was the reason she was running away. That and… Jace. Her eyes watered a bit thinking about how devastated he might be. The angst would never stop hurting.
This is the way it has to be. Clary thought to herself as she checked her watch. The time read 6:00. Clary had left at 4:00 to ensure nobody would follow her or get up. She forced herself to get up and began the trek to the New York train station. As she walked, her mind went straight to that night. The anger she felt, how disgusting it was. She had felt so violated that her own brother would have the nerve to be so reckless… and disgusting. There was no other way to put it, she felt disgusting. You lost your virginity to your own brother she thought to herself who is a monster and a demon. Clary continued to walk and found herself wondering if people could see how disgusting and dirty Clary was, filled with the stain of her brother. She shook herself out of it and approached the upcoming train
One stop to California it read
Clary boarded the train. She couldn't handle the stress, the constant pain of seeing the city and holding the painful secret inside. She knew she was being impulsive, but she didn't care. She boarded that train without any second thoughts. It was time to start her new life, in a new state. From now on she would be Clarissa Morgan, a mundane in all aspects, who would only care about herself, and her child.
