Clary's Sister

Chapter 1

I was lying around the house on our couch bored out of my mind. I had a book called, 'Gone with the Wind'. It was old, but I liked it. I never got around to reading it, but I'm in the middle of it now. I'm where Scarlett O'Hara/Hamilton is home and finds out her family was dirt poor and her mother was dead. It was kind of hard to read this book because she was a bitch and whined a lot. She was also cruel to a lot of people. I heard our bedroom door close and I looked up to see Clary. She was my twin sister; I'm older by ten minutes.

I never let it go because it bugs her. She had fiery red hair and green eyes and a bit on the short side like our mom. We had the same eyes, but white blond hair. My hair was at my shoulder blades, but I was thinking about cutting it. I smiled at her and she tilted her head to look at the cover of my book. She shook her head and laughed to herself. There was a knock on the door and Clary called. "Come in!"

I set my place and set my book where I was sitting as I stood up. I put a hand over my chest and said in mock shock. "How could you say that?! Who knows what crazy person was at the door to end us!?"

She rolled her eyes with another smile and Simon walked in. "Well then, way to be rude and I came to hang out with you guys!"

I snorted as he looked at Clary when she was looking away. I smirked at his pink face when he saw me looking at him and gave me a glare that said, 'Shut up or else'.

I shrugged and asked."So, what's up?"

Simon Lewis had normal Brown hair and eyes with glasses and usually jeans and a pictured T-shirt on and sometimes he wears jackets. Simon said. "Let's go out or something; it's already 8:00 o'clock."

Mom was at some art thing and her friend Luke was with her or doing his own thing. I looked at Clary and she said sure and they looked at me. "I might as well."

I was in a simple pair of gray jeans and a light blue V-neck T-shirt. I slipped my phone in my pocket and Simon asked. "So, where do the Fray twins want to go?"

Me and Clary looked at each other and rolled our eyes at the same time.

I spoke as me and Clary got a genius idea. "For just saying that to us…"

Clary finished for me. "...we'll go to the club Pandemonium."

Simon looked at us blankly before throwing his head back and groaning. We both laughed at his reaction. He was the nerd time and little things like Star Wars, Star Trek, video games (even if I'm a gamer myself) and player of Dungeons and Dragons. Since I described him you can see his descriptions fit well. I pointed to the door. "Off to the club we go!"

Before they could say anything, I ran out the door. I heard them laughing behind me as I ran past our neighbors house, Madam Dorothea's and to the curb, whistling for a cab. Clary and Simon were breathing a little heavy behind me.

Clary said. "You can walk next time!"

I threw my hair into a ponytail as I said. "I was excited and bored."

She sighed and nodded, used to me already. We stared calling for a cab for the next five minutes and then I was starting to get frustrated a lot. Then a cab showed up with me in the window on the right, Clary in the middle and Simon next to her. I forgot the address and Simon told the guy and I yawned, feeling a little tired and went to fall asleep on the window door, but my head was on Clary's shoulder and I fell asleep.

I woke to someone shaking my shoulder. I opened my eyes and saw Clary with Simon already out and Pandemonium out the window on our right. Simon reached over and paid the driver when I and Clary got out. Walking across the street, we saw the big line and I groaned. "It's so big!"

I then laughed under my breath at how that sounded and Simon seemed to be coughing.

Clary rolled her eyes. "I don't see what's funn-"

Her eyes widened as we got in line and with a red face, slapped me in the arm. I rubbed my arm, a playful glare on my face. The line was moving along and every once in a while, I would look to the side to see how long it was going to take.

Simon laughed. "Calm down, Erin, the line is moving,"

He spoke too quickly because it stopped and I looked over with everyone else to see a guy with spiky hair that was blue and had some kind of stick in his hand. It was normal; people from this club looked weird.

"You got to be kidding me; you can't bring that thing it here." The big bald-headed bouncer was the one that said this.

The blue haired boy looked at him shocked. "It's part of my costume."

The bouncer looked at his with a raised eyebrow."And what's that supposed to be?"

He grinned and said."A Vampire Hunter, Its fake rubber see?"

He bent it easily and he finally let him in and the line moved up smoothly. We got up there five minutes later and he looked the three of us over and let us in. The club was already full of people. Clary was staring after the blue haired boy and I smiled shaking my head as Simon sighed. "You thought he was cute, didn't you Clary?"

She elbowed him, but didn't say anything.

I said to Simon. "Of course she is, she likes the creepy ones."

Simon rolled his eyes as Clary glared and gave me an elbow to the stomach and I gave a grunt of my own. "I do not."

I shrugged and grinned and she shook her head with a grin of her own. She could never stay mad at me long. She told me before that it was not fair. I always answered back that it was charm. I looked around to see everyone around either sweaty dancing all over each other or making out, like the Japanese couple in the corner.

Clary was staring at the blue haired boy again and I saw his face and I don't know why, but I felt weird about him. I don't know what, it was at the tip of my tongue, but I could not find the thought.

Simon said after trying to get her attention. He started talking about the music and I saw that the Blue haired and some pretty girl with black flowing hair and I mean beautiful. I'm not into girls that way, but there was no wonder that he chose her at all.

I was also looking around when Simon said. "Meanwhile, I'm into cross dressing and I'm sleeping with your mom."

I looked at him blankly and said."I'm not calling you Papa or Dad."

He flushed red and I heard no reaction from Clary so I looked over and saw her staring at two guys, a blond and a black haired boy were following the blue haired and black haired girl. I frowned, don't they look suspicious? I saw the blond one pull something out of his jacket and my eyes widened what I realized it was a knife. What? Is the blond the black haired girl's ex and the other guy his best friend and he wants revenge or something? I looked over at Clary to see that she saw it too. She yelled in shock and Simon said sorry thinking about earlier, I said hurriedly. "No! That guy has a knife!"

Clary nodded and Simon squinted his eyes, but said. "I don't see anything."

Clary asked. "How could you not, they are right there."

I said. "Just because they are wearing black don't mean their invisible. Oh shit, they went in!"

Clary shouted what and Simon looked concerned. "Really? I'll call security, both of you wait here."

He walked off, pushing bodies out of the way. I was bouncing on the balls of my feet, if we wait, the two in there could be dead and if we went so could we, not having anything to defend ourselves with.

Clary decided on her own and rushed ahead. Cursing her in my head, I quickly rushed after her. Like I'd let anyone harm my sister. We went to the storage room and I asked her with a frown."Are you sure?"

She nodded and she opened the door and I looked inside, it was a normal closet, things on the floor like cables and other electronic stuff, not like anyone came in. I shook my head and thought that people just don't disappear like that. I looked around and suddenly everything became clear. I saw the pretty girl with the back hair along with the two boys. I was right one was blond and the other had black hair. Now that I look at it, the two black haired people looked the same, siblings? Cousins?

I and Clary ducked behind the nearest pillar as I saw the blue haired guy tied to another pillar, arms behind his back and ankles tied up. The blond was pacing with that knife that got us here in the first place. "So, if there any more of your kind here, you haven't told us."

His kind? I know it ain't racist; everyone in the room looked white except for the two black haired ones, who had an olive skin tone. Maybe religion or something like that? That is something I will never support, hating someone because of that. I was so lost in my thoughts that I almost missed the blue haired guy's words."I don't know what you're talking about."

The black haired boy spoke. "He means Demons, you do know what those are, right?"

I swallowed with my dry throat and was happy they could not hear it. Was Demons a Gang name or something? The blond one said in a voice that sounded like he was drawling. "Demons, Religiously defined as Hell's Denizens, the servants of Satan, but understood her for the purpose of the Clave to be any malevolent spirit who's origin is out of its own home dimension-"

He was stopped and my mind was reeling, what the hell is he talking about? He is talking like Demons are real and the blue haired boy is one. The girl said. "That's enough Jace."

So that is his name, surprisingly it fits him and he is talking about Demons, why is my mind wandering off!? They are on the Crazy Train and I do not want to be aboard. If we move, we'll get caught for sure and I will not leave without Clary. After a bit of this craziness, the blue haired boy said."I can tell you where Valentine is."

I had a feeling he was not talking about the holiday. The black haired girl 'Jace' called 'Isabelle' said with a flip of her hair."Just kill it, he won't say anything."

Kill? It? I don't want to witness a murder! 'Jace' had a look on his face as he gripped the knife closer and the blue haired boy said with wide eyes."Wait! I can tell you where Valentine is! All the Infernal Worlds know it-I know it-I can tell you where he is-"

Jace got a pissed look in his eyes as he said. "By the Angel, every time you capture one of you bastards, you say you know where Valentine is. Well, we know where he is and you can join him there."

I paled and did not want to see this. Then Clary jumped out and said."Stop, you can't do this!"

I choked up as a gasp as I sprung out next to her, protective. My heard was hammering against my ribcage and I felt like it was about to fall out of my mouth if I opened it. I agreed with what she did, but that did not mean I was not nervous. I schooled my face into a normal expression, not showing what I felt. They all looked at us in shock.

The back haired boy was the one that spoke. "What's this?" Oh, I don't know you trying to kill a blue haired boy and calling him a eomon, but nothing weird at all.

Jace said. "Girls, you seen one before, your sister is one."

Jace took a step closer and I tensed. "Mundie girls and they can see us." See him? He is right in front of us.

Clary said. "Of course we can see you, we are not blind."

He looked from her to my face back to her and said. "Oh, but you are. You just don't know it."

I licked my lips and said. "We ain't blind enough to see you trying to kill someone."

He looked at me with a raised eyebrow and he looked amused, I narrowed my eyes at him. He tilted his head slightly and mumbled something like. "She doesn't like me very much."

I glared at him more and was about to say something like 'Of course you Murderer', but he said."But why do you care if I kill him?"

Clary answered for me. "Because killing people is wrong!"

He nodded like he thought she was right and then he said. "You're both right, killing people is wrong. That's not a person little girl, he's a monster."

Isabelle warned him to knock it off and he was talking nonsense. Clary said. "You're Crazy, I called the police, and they are on their way."

Good plan, maybe they'll freak out and leave, sense the sarcasm. The black haired boy said we were lying, but he looked doubtful. I said. "Yeah, so you should-"

I never got to finish because the blue haired boy tackled Jace to the ground and I jumped in shock as Clary tripped and fell. There were almost near us and I grabbed Clary and jumped away as far as I could. I groaned quietly as I landed on my back. I and Clary scampered back. Isabelle hit it with the whip in her hand and my eyes widened, I was shocked to think or say anything negative about it.

I gulped heavy as he stabbed it in the chest and instead of blood, it was black liquid. I felt sick as he pulled it out and the black blood was on the blade, to the hilt. Jace had the black stuff on him all over. The thing screamed and said. "The Forsaken will take you all!"

Then it seemed to fold on itself and it disappeared. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I was staring at the two boys. I caught eyes to eyes with the black haired boy and he glared at me with hatred and I flinched back a little, his look making it look like I done him wrong personally. Jace was calmly looking around. I heard a gasp of pain and I spun around.

My eyes were already in a pissed off glare. The Isabelle girl had her whip wrapped around Clary's wrist. I took two long steps forward, the protective feeling inside of me. I snapped. "Let go!"

"You both almost got Jace killed!"

I scowled as well, does she had a listening problem?!

"I said let go." My voice was quiet and my face was stony, like it normally was when I was pissed. She looked at me shocked for a second, but then glared again.

I heard Jace said quietly. "Let her go." With giving me one last glare, she did. Clary rubbed her wrist. I'm very protective of the things I care about and my family is that.

The back haired boy said. "Let's bring them back with us, I bet Hodge would like to them."

Isabelle said. "We are not bringing them to the Institute, they are both Mundane."

Jace said. "Or are they. Little girls, have you had dealing with demons, walked with warlocks, talked with Night Children-"

That sprung a thought with me and I said without thinking."Vampires."

Clary looked at me in shock while the other three looked at me intently. I shrugged. "What? I read it in a book."

The two I dubbed as siblings ignored me, but Jace stared at me a little longer, but looked between the both of us. Clary called him crazy and said she didn't believe in demons. I heard Simon's voice. "Clary? Erin?"

I looked up in shock, I forgot all about it. The door opened and I saw Simon and one of the bouncers, the same one that was at the door.

Simon asked. "Where are those guys the one with the knives?"

I gaped and looked behind me. Jace raised his eyebrows and Isabelle smirked. I clenched my fist which was at my sides. Jace was apparently enjoying this and gave a mocking shrug which made me even madder. Clary said it was nothing and they must have left. Simon looked at me with a frown as I was glaring at the three of them.

"Erin? What happened?"

I looked and took a deep breath and turned around to say. "They must have gotten away."

The bouncer was annoyed and Simon looked awkward. Isabelle giggled from behind me and I felt my fist shaking, it was like she asked me to punch her. Sighing in defeat, I said. "Well, let's go. Sorry was wasting your time."

I looked at the bouncer as I said this. He nodded. "Just get out of this closet."

He walked out and Clary said. "I don't think I want to be here no more, let's go."

I nodded in agreement. "Yeah."

Simon nodded and we walked out of the club, at the curb and they talked, which I was lost in my thoughts. Demons, Night Children/Vampires and Warlocks? What the Hell?! It was like a bad Halloween movie.

"ERIN!"

I looked to see Simon trying to call me. "The Taxi is here! Seriously what is wrong with you?"

I shrugged. "Nothing."

He sighed shaking his head and I got in the middle, Clary and Simon on my either side. Simon sensed we didn't want to talk so he was quiet. I dug in my pocket for the phone and looked at the time. My eyes widened. "It's 11:50, mom going to be pissed."

Clary gave a sigh and Simon patted me on the shoulder. "It shouldn't be too bad."

It stopped at our apartment and I dug in my pocket for the cab far here since Simon did it last time. We said by and we walked in. Mom was of course waiting on the couch. I sighed quietly, here we go. Clary seemed to wait for the same thing.

She frowned at us and asked. "So, where have the two of you been at 12:10 in the morning?" She had her arms crossed over her chest.

I decided to speak first. "We were at the place Pandemonium, but-"

She didn't let me finish. "So, you decided to do that instead of come home at a normal time."

Clary said. "We tried, but the traffic was bad."

She asked. "So the traffic was three hours long?"

I sighed and said since I was tired. "Mom, can you do this tomorrow, it was a long day and I'm tired."

Her eyes softened and she let us go. Pulling the ponytail out and put the band somewhere. I found some shorts and a tank top. Clary did the same. The room was simple, we had to sides of the room, the right was mine and the left was hers.

While she had an art board and Sketch pads all over and regular twin bed, I had my twin bed and a large book case with about close to a hundred books, from Luke, birthdays or me buying them myself. You can say I loved to read a lot. I looked to see my 'Gone with the Wind' on my dresser. Mom or Luke must have put it there. I said. "Night Clary."

She smiled and said. "Night Erin."

I opened the covers and fell asleep right as my head hit the pillow.

So there it is, my first Mortal Instruments Fan-Fic. I might seem mean to Isabelle or even Alec. I actually love the both of them a lot! But this is my character and all she saw and heard was a cry of pain from her sister and got mad. You all know how Alec was in the book, I'm not saying it was good or bad, but it was the way he acted. I hope I made none of them act Occ, because I think I didn't.
