"Clary! Clary Fray! Clarissa Fairchild!"

Isabelle's scream came from the hallway. Sebastian turned around. The Lightwood children's return was unexpected. Clary gasped and Jace's eyes widened by a bit. "Mother and Father sent us home early. Alec was getting homesick. Alicante was getting boring." Clary, Jace and Sebastian could see Isabelle's shadow coming closer.

"Hello? Is anyone home?" Isabelle was getting closer. They could hear her heels clacking on the floor. Her shadow turned to face the room and there stood Isabelle Lightwood with a look of incredulous shock on her face. Clary followed her gaze and saw that she was looking at Sebastian who's dagger was pointed towards Clary and Jace's direction. With a wild shriek, Izzy threw herself at Sebastian. Her action threw him off balance and unto the bed. She threw punches at him left and right. Suddenly Izzy screamed and fell off Sebastian and landed on the floor, blood dripping on her arm. Sebastian got up from the bed with a bloody lip.

"You stupid bitch. I might as well take revenge on you now for taking off my hand." Sebastian drew closer to Isabelle who was frozen with fear. She didn't even bother getting the whip that was coiled at the side of her waist. But before Sebastian could even raise the blood stained knife, Izzy's older brother came into the doorway with his bow and arrow. Alec gasped at the site of Izzy on the floor, holding her cut arm, with Clary behind Jace who was shielding her. Sebastian's eyes were still on Isabelle. As quick as an arrow itself, Alec grabbed one from behind him, set it into the bow and shot it through the air. At the last moment, Sebastian hastily stepped aside, but not enough. The arrow didn't hit his back as it should have but instead it deeply grazed his arm which caused him to yelp. Sebastian growled and faced Alec. Alec moved to the side on the defensive. He and Sebastian circled each other like two lions fighting for territory. Sebastian smiled an evil smile and tensed.

"Clary, Jace, go!" Alec shouted without looking at the pair as Sebastian threw himself at him. Jace grabbed Clary's arm and ran them through the door leaving the Lightwoods with Sebastian. Together, they ran down the hallway and Jace pulled Clary into the Weapons room.

Clary had been thinking about their escape as she heard some faint talking. "Seraph blades, Angel knives, whips…" Jace muttered to himself grabbing the said weapons. He threw a few of them at Clary whose training runes kicked in and enabled her to grab all of them at an instant.

"Thank god he decided to attack after I started training." Clary stroked the length of one of the seraph blades. "Azariel." The blade Clary was stroking lit up like a star. She looked over at Jace who was watching her from the weapons table where she was first introduced to the seraph blades. She walked over to him and wrapped her arms around him. "Jace, what's wrong?"

He just shook his head and leaned in. Clary closed her eyes and got up on her tip toes. Jace brushed her lips with his. Clary reached up and put one hand around his neck and another through his golden hair. It was silky and fine just as it was the first time they kissed in the green house. Clary felt his arms go around her waist and hold her recklessly close. She started to feel light headed from the lack of air. Sadly, she had to break the kiss and lean against Jace so that she wouldn't fall. "Jace," She sighed.

"Clary, whatever happens, know that I love you and will never stop. Even if I have to face a hundred Behemoth demons just to prove it." Jace proclaimed in whispers.

"I know you do." Clary laughed. Jace half – smiled at her. But something from what he said caught her attention. "Jace, what do you mean by 'whatever happens'? Nothing's going to happen right? We'll defeat Sebastian won't we?"

Jace sighed, which only made Clary panic more. "Remember before the battle at Valentine's ship, when you asked me why we don't use Raziel's name when using our seraph blades?" Clary nodded so he continued. "It is because the use of his name gives ultimate power to the one who used it. Power I've never used in my life. It's dangerous, but I am willing to use anything to kill Sebastian."

Clary looked fearful. "Why can't we use regular angel names? Why use Raziel's?"

"He's part greater demon, Clary. Remember? The only way to kill a Greater Demon is to use a powerful weapon, hence using Raziel's name." Jace explained to her with only a little tinge of desperation in his voice. "Or are you just being protective of your older brother?" He smirked. Clary gasped and smacked his arm. "That's my girl." Jace ruffled her hair and looked serious once more. "Stick with me Clary. Whatever happens. you, stick with me." He commanded. His eyes were a blazing topaz instead of molten gold. Clary nodded and clasped her hand in his. Jace opened the door and looked outside. Seeing nothing, he and Clary ran out into the now dark hallway and into the front room.
