First i would like to thank looking for a Silver Lining for letting me take over this story and she said she will help me with the characters and stuff... i only read the Mortal Instruments part of the story so bare with me.

Laurel had decided to take her daughter, a four-year-old, to New York to visit Laurel's family, who had relocated there when Laurel was eighteen. Laurel hadn't seen her adoptive parents for six years, and they hadn't met Clary, her daughter, yet. Clary didn't have blonde hair, like Laurel, or black hair, like her step father, instead having red curls. She was also a winter faerie, and was technically heir to the throne of Avalon, also known as the Seelie Court, run by Queen Yasmine. Laurel was heading over to the subway, holding Clary's hand, when someone pulled Laurel onto the subway train, with Clary left on their

fourteen years later...

"Mom! I'm going out to see Jace at the park! I'll be back later!" Clary shouted after her mother and grabbed her hoodie and bag, opening the door to the apartment she shared with her mother and her brother."Okay. Be back later, Clary!" Clary left the apartment and stepped into the cool autumn air. She pulled on her large black hoodie and hailed a cab to Central Park. She went to the centre of the park, and found Jace leaning on a tree, smiling at her. She jogged over to him and he hugged her, his arms around her torso. She smiled up at him."Hey Jace. Anything attacked you recently?" Clary knew Jace was a Shadowhunter, and was fine with that. He was the only person she told about a flower growing out of her back when she was fifteen. He had known Clary for years, and sometimes took her along for assignments where she wouldn't get hurt."I need to go to the Seelie Court with Isabelle and Alec. You want to come along?" "Sure, Where is it?""Here. That's why I asked you to meet me here, We're going next week, if you want to join. Plus Izzy wants to see Melinorn, her boyfriend. You coming?" "Sure! I'll say I'm hanging out with you, Izzy and Alec. Mom won't mind really.""Clary, you want to come to the Institute? I can let you in. I found something really cool. Come on." Jace took her hand and he climbed on his motorbike, with Clary behind him, her arms around his they got to the Institute, Jace led her up a spiralling staircase until they got to a garden. Clary sent a text to her mom, telling her she would be having a sleepover at the Institute. Jace led her through a ivy covered door to an enormous room filled with flowers and plants. She gasped as she brushed against a white tulip. Jace didn't drop her hand as he led her up an ivy covered staircase covered with potted plants. She sat on the top step, with Jace next to her. She smiled as he produced two bottles of water from his coat pocket and handed one to Clary. He plucked a strawberry from a plant and handed it to Clary, watching her as she ate it. They lounged around in the flower garden, and watched as the sun went down. Jace eventually led her out of the garden and to his room, where he had a sofa she could sleep on. He handed her some blankets, and she gently fell asleep. The next morning, she went home and waited for the trip to the Seelie Court, texting Jace until the time would come.
