A/N: Alright here is the next chapter! And sadly I still don't own TMI, yet the beautiful Cassandra Clare does! But I know you guys do know who I own.
Clary:
I went into my closet again and grabbed my black yoga pants and one of my black camisoles and changed into those along with my socks. I went back out into my room and grabbed Mary's hand to take her to the training room. We both entered and I saw that the others were already standing around waiting. Rachel was wearing the same thing that I was while Aaron was wearing basketball shorts with a black wife-beater. I could see his chest muscles through his shirt and arms quite well and I walked over to stand next to him. Mary sat on the ground next to her sister and cousins. Aaron wrapped his arm around my shoulders and he kissed my forehead. Riley came into the training room with Alice, Ricky and Mark in tow. The others quieted down and turned towards Riley who had a clipboard in his hand.
"Alright guys, I have the schedule for how today is going to go. Now I know normally that I give you little ones one tutor everyday but today you will get to work with everyone today. So Clary, you are on balance and flipping with Mary first, Aaron you are on sword-fighting with Katie and Kim first, Rachel you are with Margaret on hand-to-hand first, Ricky you are on Knife throwing with Sam first and Mark you are on Archery with Maya first. Girls you will move counter-clockwise with everyone until all of you are back with the same person you were before. Now Alice and I will be going around helping where we can if needed. Now let's start."
Training session went by well and fast. Of course Kim and Kate got into a fight with Ricky so I had to intervene while Aaron just stood there chuckling and of course as soon as Mary got onto the balance beam she straddled it and wouldn't stand up or jump down until I did it about ten times. The others were just warming down in the training room while I went to the kitchen to make a sandwich. While I was making it I was thinking about what Ricky had said about us going to Pandemonium tonight. I was kind of hoping that he would say that I could stay home instead of going back to the place where it all began. But the one thing I was worrying about the most was seeing them again. I mean sure I missed them but I didn't think I could handle seeing them without his betrayal being brought back to my mind again. Hopefully tonight nothing will get out of hand so that I didn't have to intervene that much. I was eating my sandwich when I heard the kitchen door swing open and watched as Rachel came in. She sat down on the chair across from and looked at me.
"Rach, I promise you I am fine. I'm just a bit jumpy about what might happen later on tonight. You know what happened, and I mean the whole story, I don't know how I'm going to handle seeing him again." I said.
"Well, you don't have to worry about a thing; you've got me, Aaron, Mark and Ricky if he even so much as lays a finger on you. But I know that you are strong enough to handle yourself or some jackass shadowhunter that thinks he can lead you on." She said putting one hand over mine.
"Thanks and yea he is a jackass, I just thought that he would be my jackass at some point. But I guess his old self didn't like commitments."
"Well, now we all think he is a jackass even though we didn't even meet him. I was kind of hoping that we never would meet him but I guess fate has a different plan for us. Now, come out of the kitchen and stop moping because Aaron keeps looking at me like a sick puppy." She pleaded.
"Alright, and I promise not to let this get to me. Let's go to the frozen yogurt shop on the corner because I really need something sweet to eat; this pb and j sandwich isn't working at all for me."
"You got it babe."
I got up from the table with a sigh and walked out the kitchen door into a pair of warm arms. Aaron set his cheek on top of my head and started to rub my back. This is one of the things I really liked about Aaron, he always knew how to make me feel better. I looked up and he lifted his head to look down at me and I was locked onto his blue eyes. I smiled and leaned up to plant my lips on his and he pulled me tighter into him.
"Mom! Dad! Aaron and Clary are sucking face in the kitchen again!" I heard Rachel yell.
"Seriously?" I said looking at her.
"What? This is a family room and the little ones don't need to see that, too much PDA for their innocent minds. Besides, I really don't want to see my brothers tongue down a girls throat that I consider my sister and best friend. And since we're parabatai I can sort of get a feeling what you feel whenever you are playing tonsil hockey!" she said crossing her arms.
"Well, excuse me if it's against the law to kiss my girlfriend! Or at least it disgusts you when I do it." Aaron said.
"No it's not against the law but it does disgust me." Rachel said.
"Then I will gladly do it over and over again."
"Do it in front of me again and I will take one of my knives and cut off something valuable to you."
"I'd really like to see you try that, I mean come on, you can't touch this."
"Wanna try me?"
"Bring it short stuff."
"Hey guys, alright I get that we do have a little too much PDA sometimes but seriously, you don't have to threaten his manhood like that. I'm pretty sure he loves it too much." I said.
"See, even Clary is defending me and little me." Aaron said.
"Alright, you shut up about you and your little self or no more kissing."
"Oh damn, you're not kidding, alright, I promise no more fighting over kissing and me. Do I get a reward?" he said wrapping his arms around my waist.
I smiled and leaned up to kiss him and he leaned down to meet me. At the last second I pulled away and out of his arms to run down the hall. I was halfway to my room when I heard Rachel's laughter and Aaron's voice yell 'Tease!'. I closed my door behind me and burst out laughing. I checked the clock and noticed that it was already seven so I decided to take a shower before it was time to go to pandemonium.
I got out of my shower wrapped in a green towel and a red towel wrapped around my hair after I shampooed it with my strawberry shampoo and conditioner. I walked into my closet and pulled all my shadowhunting clothes out and set them on my bed while walking to my vanity table. I took the towel out of my hair blow-dried it so it wouldn't be as curly if I had let it air dry. I put on a little concealer to get rid of the shadows under my eye and went to my clothes drawer to pull out my underwear and one of my black camisoles. I went to my bed and put on the black leather skintight pants, sleeveless black vest, and slipped my weapons belt around me. I grabbed my knee high black boots from the closet and left my room to head for the library where the others were convening before we left. I entered the room and saw Ricky and Mark on the floor wrestling while Rachel was just staring at them. I walked over to stand next to her and Archie came into the room to stand next to me. I started rubbing his head absent-mindedly. Aaron came through the library doors and looked at the floor once and shook his head. He stooped down and picked Ricky and Mark both up and held them both under his arms. Rachel and I both started laughing really hard when Riley came in through the doors.
"Alright guys, time for you to- what did they do this time Aaron?" he asked looking at his youngest sun with a disappointed look.
"Nothing, they were just fighting on the floor with each other and it was getting annoying." He said.
"Just because you are the oldest doesn't mean you can always do this to us Aaron, seriously, you may have a hot girlfriend but that doesn't make her an ego booster for you." Mark said.
"Aw, Mark, you think I'm hot? Thank you but you are a little too young for me." I said.
"I'm only 17 and you're 18 as well as Aaron and Rachel. Oh and Ricky is 17 too but that's besides the point. I am not that young." He said.
"Sure you're not, but you'll always be my little baby brother no matter how old you get." Aaron said.
"Alright guys that's enough, Aaron would you please be so kindly to let go of your brothers and Clary, could you draw the portal outside on the wall so you can drive your motorcycles through it? Now like I said before, just observe and see how big the problem is then come back and we will make our second move. Good hunting!" Riley said.
I sighed and made my way to the door and down the hall to the elevator. I heard the others follow behind me and I reached down to grab my boots from the spot I placed them at by the door. Archie was in the elevator with us because we brought him with us sometimes when we went out demon hunting. Archie was a bit special because strangely he could turn into any animal but originally he is a dog. He only changes into helpful animals like a hawk, falcon, panther, or any other predator that can cause a demon some serious damage.
The elevator dinged and I made my way out the door and to the backyard where we always kept the motorcycles that Alice and Riley got us for our seventeenth birthdays. They got us all 1000 bmw BMW S1000RR motorcycles, I got a red one, Aaron got green, Rachel got blue, Ricky got black and Mark got yellow. I drew the portal on the wall on the side of the Institute and revved my engine up. I pulled on my helmet and sped towards the portal and passed through it to skid to a stop in an abandoned parking lot. I looked back and saw the others rev their motorcycles and speed towards me. Rachel rode her motorcycle next to me and I could see the concerned look in her eyes but just shook my head. I looked to the opening of the parking lot and recognized central park even if it was dark out. I pulled into the street and went down a familiar road. It wasn't until I was a block away that I realized that I was heading towards my old apartment. It was a good thing that Pandemonium was to my right. I stopped my motorcycle and pulled it onto the sidewalk nearby and got off. I heard the engines of five bikes cut off and walked into the club, listening to the others waiting in lines flick us off. i remembered that the bouncer always let shadowhunters in and this was confirmed when he nodded at us.
I walked in and was immediately met with the pounding tunes of the dj and saw a mass of bodies twirling on the dance floor. I scanned my surroundings and noticed that there were about three demons looking for a prey to consume. I nudged Rachel on her side and nodded in the demons direction. All of them were male; one had icy blue hair( the first demon Clary saw at Pandemonium), another had yellow hair with red tips( Johnny test style) and the other had just plain purple hair. She smiled wickedly and turned back to the boys to let them know that we would be playing bait for tonight. They grumbled saying that Riley had said not to intervene and Aaron looked at me with a concerned look. I knew that he hated it whenever I played bait, but he knew better than to argue with me so he just nodded and kissed me quickly so the demons wouldn't see us. Rachel and I made our way to the dance floor and started dancing in a provocative way that any straight guy within five feet would be immediately attracted. I felt two pairs of arms wrap around my waist and I was pulled slightly away from Rachel into the back of one of the demons and the yellow/red haired demon came in front of me. I began grinding against the both of them while internally gagging at the smell they had. No matter how hard they tried to look human, they never got the smell covered. I looked over and saw that the blue haired demon was dancing with Rachel but for all I know he could have been having butt-sex with her.
"Hey, you wanna take this somewhere a little more private? Your friend can come with us?" the demon behind me said.
"Sure, I know of the perfect place." I said.
I led the purple and yellow/red haired demons to the supply closet that I knew they normally used for killing demons and I saw that Rachel was following with demon number three. I smiled and opened the supply closet and once Rachel and the other demon were inside the door slammed shut and they pushed both of us against the wall. The blue haired attacked her neck and she made a noise that sounded like she was enjoying it but I knew from experience that she was totally faking it. The purple haired demon was attacking my neck while the yellow/red haired demon was slowly making his way towards my mouth. He was a centimeter away before I whipped two knives out and slashed both of the demons near their stomachs. I heard a hiss and knew that Rachel and had whipped out her long and narrow dagger.
"Shadowhunters!" they all hissed in synchronization.
"Wow! You guys are really smart." Rachel said.
"I swear, you demons get stupider every single damn time you leave your dimension. But at least I hope this time when you go back, you can tell all your friends to be smarter." I said with a snicker.
"I know you, you seem familiar. Where have met before?" the blue haired one asked me.
"Are you really that dense that you don't remember me? Hmm, I should tell you but I don't think I want you to have the satisfaction of knowing who I am." I said.
Before he could say anything I launched myself at him and pressed the tip of one of my knives into his chest where his heart was. I watched him fold on himself and go back to his dimension. I turned to see that Rachel was trying to fend off both of the demons left. She stabbed the yellow one and watched that one disappear while the purple jumped on her back. She fell to the ground with a yelp and I ran over to pull the demon off of her and into the back wall. She jumped up and winced, I looked at her with worry but she just waved it off. I walked over and picked him up with one hand and pinned him to the wall. I held my hand out to Rachel and she placed my special that I saved for demons in my hand. I placed it under the demons neck.
"Any last words, cretin?" I asked it.
"Johnathan Morgenstern is alive!" it screamed.
"You're lying!" I said, but I could hear the tremor in my voice.
"Ah, so you are the Morgenstern girl. There's been people looking all over for you and you were just hiding here. I know a lot people that are going to be ecstatic." It said, it knew that it had hit a nerve.
"Clary, don't let it get to you! It's impossible for your brother to come back, I mean you told me what had happened." Rachel said.
"It isn't lying though." I said.
I didn't realize how loosely my grip had slackened but the demon sprang and I fell to the ground with a scream and it was on top of me. I tried to grab my knife and stab him but before I could I felt the air whistle and something thin and leathery wrapped around its neck. It gagged and looked up at the whips owner with a death glare. The whip tightened and the demon folded in on itself. I let my breath go and sat up.
"Clary!?" I heard behind me.
"Shit!" I hissed under my breath.
I turned around slowly to see three shadowhunters standing at the door along with a vampire and warlock. I looked up higher and my eyes locked with golden ones that stared back at me with incredulity.
"Oh, fuck." I breathed.
A/N: okay this wasn't as action packed as I wanted it to be but I guess it turned out alright. I will leave the opinions up to you. Now if you read my other stories you already know what I'm about to say… Review it up!
