Hi welcome to my story, I hope you like it as much as I have been writing it.
So, as I said in the summary, there was a slight change to the end of heavenly fire. Sebastian doesn't die by the Heavenly fire sword. Amatis sees Clary reaching for the sword and pushes Sebastian out of the way and gets stabbed herself; but not before Sebastian is sliced by the sword. He loses a lot of his demon powers Lilith had given him, losing his control over the demon realm. he flees into the demon dimension before anyone could stop him. Everyone is still stuck in the demon realm and still must summon Magnus father to get them out. so, when they return to Idris they feel it's over as how could Sebastian possible get free of the demon well right? Wrong! He finds a way and by doing so finds out that Clary's blood holds the key to destroying the world as we know it.
So, read on if you want to find out what happens.
Clary sighed as the door of the apartment swung closed behind her and she chucked the keys in the bowl beside the door. It had been a long day of busting tables at the diner she worked at. All Clary wanted to do was relax with a nice hot bath and see Aleah.
"Mom?" I called as I shrugged off my jacket
"In the kitchen."
I headed down the hallway towards the kitchen, the smell of dinner cooking wafted into the hall making my stomach rumble. I walked in and smiled as my eyes automatically scan the room and land on Aleah. She looked up as I entered the room and her little face lit up when she saw me. her golden curls bouncing on top of her head. She was strapped in her highchair playing with some toys and bashing them with her bottle. I felt my heart swell at the site of her and then ache at the fact she looks so much like her father. She had his golden hair and his beautiful smile. Her eyes were my jade green, but they had a ring of gold going through them. I pushed away the unwanted thoughts of her dad.
"Hey baby." I smiled at her as I sat down in the chair next to hers
"momm mom." She babbled happily at me.
"how was your day?" my mom smiled as she busied herself with serving up dinner.
"long and tiring." I mumbled as I got up to help her.
We had just sat down for dinner when we heard the front door open and close and Luke strolled into the kitchen a few moments later.
"Hey." He smiled at us as he sat down next to my mom. Mom quickly served him a plate and sat back down. Luke kissed her thank you. I stared at my food trying not to see. It's great that they love each other but I don't really want to see my parents kissing while I'm trying to eat. Luke wasn't my biological dad but he's the only dad I've known. My real dad turned out to be insane.
We chatted happily together as a family while we ate. Though I swear Aleah was wearing more of her food than she ate. I couldn't help but laugh as she giggled when she threw a piece of spaghetti and it landed on Luke's arm.
"Hey you little monster." He laughed at her as she tried to do it again.
Once Aleah was bathed and we had finished her bedtime routine, I laid her in her cot next to my bed, winding up her favourite musical toy. I crashed onto my bed, just staring at the ceiling. Thinking about what life was like before. Dreaming what life would have been like if he hadn't of been alive. Would she have been a normal 19year old? Would she have gone to the academy like Simon?
See Clary wasn't your average teenager. She was a Shadowhunter. She protects the mundane from the shadow world. From the demons and rogue downworlders that live among us. Well she did; until she went into hiding, with the help of her friend Tessa. Now she lives like a mundane, working a meaningless job just to help her parents.
She hadn't known she was pregnant when her and her parents went into hiding, leaving everyone she cared about behind; Isabelle and Simon, Alec and Magnus and…Jace. Clary sighed at the thought of him. she rolled over to watch her beautiful baby sleeping through the bars of her cot. She looks just like him when she's sleeping. Clary wondered what it would have been like if he had come into hiding with them, for the millionth time. What would he think of a mundane life? What would he be like with Aleah? Would he love her as much as she did?
Clary shook her head trying to shake the thoughts away. It's no point wondering what if. It had been her choice not to tell him they were leaving. He belonged in the shadow world, he's a hunter and one of the best the clave has. She couldn't bring herself to rip him from his world, from his family. He was special like her in the shadow world. Clary's real dad had experimented on them both before they were even born. But his blood didn't hold the key to the end of the world as we know it. Hers did. It broke her heart to leave, to know she'll never see Jace again while she was being hunted. It felt like her heart had shattered into a million pieces, she had cried herself to sleep for months, and then she had found out she was pregnant, with Jace's child and her heart broke even more, she hadn't known it was possible. She had thought about going back so many times, but she never did. She couldn't risk the lives of everyone just for her broken heart. Then Aleah was born and Clary felt her heart swell as it started to heal with the love of her daughter. She may not have Jace but she had a part of him, sleeping peacefully next to her.
