Hey I'm back again:) Ok this chapter is taking place a few hours in the future. The last chapter was really just to establish the characters. I'm trying to stay true to them, although Clary's character will be bit different at the start I'm hoping to evolve it into the Clary that we know, just a more dangerous version.

Hodge POV

There was something about this girl Clary. I felt like I knew her from somewhere but I just couldn't place it. "Aaaggghhhh" I muttered. It was just so annoying I knew that I recognised that face, I just didn't know where. "Oh well," I thought, "I just need to report to my master, let him know that we have a new comer,"

Jace POV

Clary was here! She was actually here! I know that I might act indifferent and cocky on the outside, but on the inside I was rejoicing. I walked into the kitchen.

"I bet your happy now Jace," Isabelle said, giving me an wicked smirk, "I saw the way that you looked at her, she may not have noticed it but I have, and now you have her right where you want her." I quirked and eyebrow, she looked at me with a smug look, "living under your roof," she continued.

"I don't know what you're talking about," I replied evenly. Izzy stepped forward to reveal a steaming pot behind her, I groaned internally, Izzy and her cooking, it just never turned out right. "So this is the cause of the pungent smell," I said wrinkling my nose and looking meaningfully over at the pot, Izzy gave me a hurt look and replied, "You better suck it up because this is your dinner," Ugh, when will the woman learn that cooking isn't her thing. I turned around to escape, and ran straight into a petite feminine form, causing her to trip over, and fall conveniently right into my arms!

Clary POV

I was walking past the kitchen when I heard voices. "So this is the cause of the pungent smell," I heard Jace say. "Hmm..." I thought thinking quietly, approaching the door silently looking in,

"You better suck it up because this is your dinner," Isabelle was saying, I almost burst out laughing at the look on Jace's face in his reflection on the pot, his face look genuinely horrified, he spun around so quickly even I didn't see it coming and knocked me over, causing me to fall straight into his arms.

I looked up at Jace and blushed, "Wait I BLUSHED, I Clarissa Morgenstern doesn't fall for anyone. What's happening to me?" I quickly jumped back from Jace, "sorry, I didn't expect you to turn around so quickly..." I mumbled, while he smirked down at me.
