Clary didn't want the vampire to do anything to her sister, even though she hadn't known her four more than a couple hours. Clary knew that Serena would do anything to save her, so she said something she never thought she would have said "If you release her, then you can have me."
Jace looked at Clary with a look that showed nothing, so when the vampire untied Serena, he was still was still holding her waiting for Clary to walk over to him. She expected to be more scared than she really was.
Serena was yearning to get away from the vampire, so quickly slashed her whip at the vampire. The vampire yelped, and let her go. She felt herself still dizzy, but decided to continue the fight. Alec followed by Jace then attack the vampire, but the moment the vampire was gone, all the others started coming.
Jace led the way to another room - it looked like a ballroom. All the vampires soon started to pile in from all directions. Serena took a glance at every direction, and knew there were a lot of vampires. She almost had faith that they would make it out safely.
When the vampires started to pounce towards them, Serena took her blade out, and handed it to Clary who didn't knew exactly how to use it. Serena told her just to slash it at the vampires when they are in aim. At that moment Serena left to help the rest of the group.
Jace had two vampires on him, so Serena whipped them both allowing time for Jace to finish the work off himself. Alec was having trouble with a lot of vampires, so Serena went over, and slashed her whip at about the five vampires around him. Alec astounded, but rewarded Serena with a smile.
Clary was slashing Serena's seraph blade at all the vampires, trying to kill them. Serena was helping Isabelle, when a vampire grabbed her whip. Serena was pulled towards him, but before the vampire could get to her, Alec killed it releasing Serena. Serena rewarded him with a bright smile, and a thank you.
Serena now went back to battle off the annoying vampires that were trying to get to Clary for the mortal cup. 'I'm glad that they don't know that I already have my abilities.' Serena thought to herself. The vampires would also be going after me.
Jace came to Serena, and decided that it would be best if she and him stood together to defeat all of the vampires. Serena much obliged she rewarded Jace with a warm smile, and could see that she had affected him in a way. She was also affected by him in a way that didn't exactly show.
Serena was busy fighting the vampires back to back with Jace, so she realized the amount was to large. Everyone gathered around in a corner to talk about a new strategy. Jace and Serena still had faith that they could beat the vampires, and get away, but Isabelle and Alec were disagreeing.
No one knew what to do for the next few minutes, but out of the windows came a large pack of werewolves. Serena knew them all, but everyone else were staring at them astounded. "Luke," Serena called "keep them busy, while we get away, okay?" She only earn a large nod from largest wolf of the pack.
'Luke?' Clary thought to herself. Serena and Jace ran out in the lead. Clary stayed behind for a few seconds, but then charged after them followed by Alec and Isabelle. More and more secrets were coming back to her.
Clary thinking her whole life was a simple non-tragic little world, never thought that demons and angels existed. Serena knew how she felt. It was hard for her to believe also, but she lived with it.
Jace and Serena had reach the outdoors of the hotel, but the vampires came out of nowhere again. Serena stayed behind with Alec this time to get rid of all the stranded vampires. Serena didn't know Alec as much as she knew Jace, so she decided to fight independently. She felt a strong connection with Jace, but not in romance, just in friendship.
Alec was so good at fighting, but Serena knew that he was just trying to impress Jace. Serena knew how he loved Jace and would do anything to catch Jace's liking for him. Serena had always taken a liking to Alec even if he was being rude to her sister, and knew that Clary also took a liking for him, but wouldn't show it.
When they were done getting rid of all the vampires, Serena was so weak and dizzy that she had to sit down. After a while, the light left her eyes. Alec was the only one there. He grabbed her, and took her to the stairwell. "Jace!" Alec yelled. Jace's face appeared from the top of the stairwell. Alec could tell that Jace felt terribly bad for Serena, but didn't show it.
Jace turned away, and told Isabelle to her whip to lift Serena up from Alec's arms. As Isabelle brought Serena up, Jace had hid his face to make sure no one saw him tear up. Love was never a good way to start a friendship. When Jace was done sucking up, he turn to see Serena laying on the floor. He grabbed her, and carried her bridal style to the institute.
When they reached the institute Jace unlocked the door, and walked in with Serena in his hands. Simon was leaning on Alec and Clary for support. They laid Simon on the nearest infirmary bed, and place Serena on the bed next to him. Clary went straight away to her sister, and then to Simon.
Jace and the rest of the shadowhunters - minus Serena, walked into the kitchen to eat some breakfast. The entire mission had been a long one for it to last eight hours. They had missed dinner, so they practically just ate the entire kitchen, and soon after their enormous breakfast, they all went to bed for they also missed sleeping during the night.
After everyone had woken up, they each went to do whatever they wanted to do. Clary went to visit Simon and Serena in the infirmary. She walked into the infirmary and explained that she just finished having an argument. Simon was pleased, but Serena was trying to make sure she heard exactly what her sister had just said.
Jace came tot the doorway, but he turned back around when he saw Clary on the same bed as Simon. Jace walked himself to the library to play the piano, and enjoy the sound it makes.
While Clary was talking to Simon, Serena sneaked out of the the infirmary to see what the source of music was. She followed the sound of the music. Walking into to the library, Serena saw that Jace was on the piano. She walked over to him just as he started to bang the piano.
"Um... Jace, I wanted to thank you for helping me when I was unconscious," Serena whispered.
Jace smiled at Serena like she was some kind of angel.
"Jace don't think I don't know your love for my sister, but I won't tell anyone if you admit it to me," Serena proposed the deal childishly.
"I do love her, and today is Clary and your birthday," Jace said.
"How did you know?" Serena asked kindly.
"Research and I was looking for you to give you your gift," Jace replied.
Jace slightly gripped Serena's hand too hard, and her to the greenhouse.
