Malice yelped as she healed her wounds. Of course, she had forgotten to take out the arrow first, how regrettably human of her. Taking the bloody arrowhead out carefully, she thought that it was hardly an unexpected thing considering thecircumstances
of herbirth. When she born from Lilith's blood dripped into the earth she rose from the ground enveloped in a cocoon of heavenly fire. Of course a few seconds later it had dissipated but still, the effects remained. Lilith hadthought it
not to be unusual,because Malice had been born one of the strengthened demons of Pandemonium.

She always had admired humans despite their inevitable mortality, and their endless stupidity. She loved to be near them, sometimes as a girl, sometimes a boy. This had gotten her caught by shadowhunters so many times she couldn't even keep track. Everytime
she warned them about Valentine, they never listened. The heavenly fire did have its bounties though, as she could walk in full sunlight in any form, and was unusually hard to kill, as well as not having to consume human souls, only to cause

tormentto them. That was easy enough to get if she went to the slums of the city. Although sometimes she liked to treat herself…

Although she wished to torment as much as she wished to kill humans, which was very little, she sustained herself with as little as was possible. Shadowhunters though, were out of her category of human now. Today had been quite successful, by her standards,shewasn't
hungry or dead.

She knew she shouldn't have gone to the Pandemonium club, last time she was there she was almost killed, and again they didn't listen to her. She snapped, and decided to warn them no more, and all her warnings came true. The shadowhunters needed her help,but
again and again refused it…

As Clary came home, she thought about the blue haired demon that she had seen Jace kill. Was it possible that the demon she saw today was that one?I mean, Jace had said they both were shapeshifters. Hadn't it tried to tell them about Valentine?

Malice looked around her small apartment, her anti-freeze colored eyes fixing upon a hairline crack on the ceiling. The meow of her cat, Mittens, snapped her out. Mittens was waiting in front of her food bowl, meowing loudly. Of course, thought Malice,
she was hungry. She opened her kitchen cabinets, got out the cat food and poured some into Mittens's bowl. Malice them looked at the ground and saw that there was her blood everywhere. Sighing, she got out the mop and began to clean her wooden floors.

Clary awoke with a start, blearily looking around. Her sheets were tangled, so she straightened them. It was the middle of the night, pitch black and she had dreamt about the demon she had just fought. The demon had a cat, a house and everything! What
a weird dream, she thought as she rolled over and fell back to sleep.

She woke up to sunlight streaming in through the window. She got out of bed, got dressed and sat down to breakfast with Isabelle, Alec and Jace. " I had the weirdest dream last night" she told them, as she listened to Isabelle pour her cereal
" It was about that demon we fought last night, it had an apartment, a cat, a life!"

" Huh" said Alec " Just like Magnus", his eyes developing dreamy look to them.

" Yeah, the dream probably just mashed up those two" said Clary.

Malice, today was a violet-haired faerie as she walked through the streets of New York towards Taki's diner. Her familiar anti-freeze colored eyes the only constant in every form she walked in. Taki's diner was deserted, probably due to the fact that
was 10 AM and the only people there were giving either a late breakfast or an early lunch. She sat on the blood-coloured couches, ordering one normal coffee and some faerie plums from the waitress. " I don't think I've seen you here before."
said the waitress

" I'm on vacation" said Malice, giving her a grin

" Ohh" said the waitress, smiling " Well then, good vacation"
