So I found a mistake in chapter 2 and I tried to edit it out, the edits are there when I go to change it but they won't save. So Clary and Jace are introduced in this chapter not in chapter 2.
Hope you like it!
Clary
I feel like crap. I'm waiting in a place called the Institute infirmary. When I wake up, the blondie is looming over me. He calls out to a guy named Hodge who comes sprinting in. I quickly put my head up and immediately regretted it. Pain shot up my back causing a huge wave of pain to wash over me. What happened? Why am I in so much pain? The last thing I remember is this really slimy and creepy looking thing lunging at me, I scream and then the rest is blank. I just woke up here. The Hodge guy is getting closer. I don't even know the name of the blondie that brought me here. I should find out and thank him. He looks at me with a worried look. "That's Hodge. He has experience with this kinda stuff and he pretty much safer your life other than the iratze I gave you."
"First of all, I don't even know your name and you gave me a what?!"
"My name is Jace. I don't know your name either and it's called an iratze. A healing rune."
"The name is Clary and what is a rune?"
"I'll explain all of that later. Right now we need to make sure you're okay."
I smiled sheepishly at the fact that he cared that I was hurt. But then a thought occurred to me. I'm just a random girl. I'm not that important, but Jace acts like it. I talk to him later after he explains all of this. My thoughts were interrupted when the Hodge guy started talking.
"She'll be okay she's all healed. But Maryse wants to talk to you about the iratze you gave her without even knowing if she was a Shadowhunter or not. She waiting for you in her office."
"See you later Clary, rest up."
He started walking out but then stopped and said, "Ask Hodge to take you to the training room when he's done fixing you up"
"Ok I will"
Soon he was out the door and I didn't see him for a while until I got the training room. He was in all black training with other kid. I didn't want to interrupt them so I just stepped out of sight. For a while, they didn't notice me. Then Jace spotted me.
"Oh hey Clary, how's it going."
"Good. I just walked in and now I'm watching you train. Who's that with you?"
"Oh, now you guys talking about me," the guy said, "The name's Alec. I'm Jace's parabatai."
"What's a parabatai?" I asked because I have no idea what anyone is talking about. "Oh! My name is Clary. Sorry I'm just a little confused Jace still has to explain all of this craziness I got myself into."
"Seriously Jace, you haven't told her yet?!"
"No, I haven't and I was planning to after I finished training."
"Well now she's wondering what you're talking about so make sure you tell her."
"Tell me what?" I asked because I was getting very confused and just wanted to get to the bottom of everything. He stopped dodging Alec's stabs and turned to me. Apparently this is going to be a long talk.
"What you are. You're a Shadowhunter. Half angel and half mundane of human. Shadowhunters hunt demons. What is in my hand is called a seraph blade, made from adamas. Steles are also made from adamas which are used to draw runes. But to be able to hold a seraph blade you need to get the rune of Angelic Power, it looks like this. He showed me a rune on the inside of his wrist. I've seen that before. But where?
"Ummm…" Was all I said in reply because I am getting a very big headache from all of this. "I'm going to go lay down." I said as I left the room.
Jace
"Gosh," Alec said, "way to ease into it."
"Well, I'm trying. You try explaining all of them to someone that was a mundane for 16 years."
"Someone is cranky." Alec said as I started out.
He is right, I am a bit cranky because I couldn't sleep. I was up all night thinking about Clary. I feel like she was put in my life for a reason and I'm determined to figure out why that is.
