Wow. Good job on the reviewing guys! Yeah, I agree my name is very Irish =P and I would explain more on the Jace parent issue, and Clary's parents and stuff, but you're going to have to let your mind wander! And remember, except for some of the characters, Jace and Clary have just switched positions and personalities. Nothing else. So have fun reading!

"C'mon Clary." Alec said from behind me. The three of us had killed about 20 demons. I turned around and jogged to join Alec and Izzy.
"That was fun." I said with a smile. The whole way back to the Institute, we recalled memories of kick ass demon killings, and what would be the most epic kill.
"No, it would definitely be flinging the demon's own blade into its eyes, while jumping up and kicking the other demon square in the face." Alec said.
"But that would just be too easy!" Izzy complained.
"But you would be too busy flinging the blade so you wouldn't be looking at the demon while you kicked it in the face."
"Yeah, but jumping from a twenty story building with no weapons, just your bare hands, jumping on the demon's back and strangling it without getting a scratch. While having like, two other demon on your back." I retorted.
"Yeah, that's pretty kick ass..." Alec agreed with me.
"Still, decapitating one with a cell phone, is still even cooler." Izzy argued.
"How the hell would you do that?" I asked her.
"Throw it really hard?"
"It would still snap before the demon's head was chopped off. And it's kind of like the Mad Hatter's hat in Alice in Wonderland." Alec defended.
"The Mad Hatter is pretty kick ass." Izzy said.
"And he's played by Johnny Depp. Well at least in the newest one." I said.
"Too true! That just makes him even more kick ass!" Izzy gushed.
"Ew guys. He's like 50." Alec said semi disgusted.
"So? He's still yummy!" Iz defended, while I nodded along to what she was saying.
"And he wears eyeliner while doing it." I added in.
"Yeah but I bet Bruce Willis could kick ass any day." Alec said.
"Okay, Bruce Willis is old, and ugly." We kept on arguing/discussing who was cooler until we got back to the Institute. When we did arrive, the Golden Boy drifted back into my thoughts.
"Ah shit." I said walking out of the elevator.
"What?" Alec asked me.
"What are we going to do with Jace?" They both gave me empty stares. "You know Golden Boy?" Their faces brightened in recognition.
"Yeah, that idiot." Alec murmured. Instinctively I glared at him. Then caught myself, what was that about?
"Let's go to Hodge I guess." Iz said with a sigh. We walked down the windy halls mostly silent, and walked into the huge library. As usual, Hodge was sitting in the huge leather chair behind his desk. Hugo perched on his shoulder.
"Children!" He greeted us with a smile.
"We're not children anymore Hodge." I reminded him dryly, plopping myself down in a chair. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Alec give him a sympathetic look.
"Right... So what seems to be the problem?" He asked us.
"Mundie." I muttered closing my eyes for what seemed to be the first time today. It relaxed me so much, that I almost lost myself until Alec shook me back to reality again.
"What, what! What is it?" I asked snapping out of my daydreaming. All three of them were looking at me weirdly.
"I said, what do you suppose we do?" Hodge repeated.
"Uh.." I said thinking. If we let him be, he may tell people and get too much out. If we killed him... No. My mind told me. It made me angry that my mind would even think of that. Wait, I wouldn't have hesitated to kill a mundie before... What was this guy doing to me?? Tell him about it? But he was mundie... Then how could he have seen us? "We tell him everything." I said after World War 3 had gone off in my head.
"Tell him Clary!? He's mundie!" Alec shouted, surprised.
"Then how'd he see us?" I snapped at him. He looked kind of hurt, I mean I did snap at him. "Sorry, that wasn't necessary." I mumbled.
"I guess that could work." Hodge said, his thinking face on. Alec leaned his head back and groaned. He stayed like that for ten seconds before he got up slowly and said, "I'll go get him." I jumped out of my chair almost as fast as I could, knocking down the chair in the process. "I'll do it Alec!" I said quickly.
"But-" Alec started to say but I cut him off.
"It's fine. I'll be back in a giffy!" I said with a smile. I started walking out the door, grabbing my green jacket n the way out. From behind me, I could hear Izzy say, "Uh-oh." for the second time that night.
The library door closed behind me, but two seconds after it did it reopened.
"Clary!" I heard Alec yell. I didn't think he was wearing heels so I guess Iz was with him.
"What?" I called behind me shoulder not stopping.
"Think about what you're doing Clary." He said.
"Yeah... Going to get someone to let Hodge explain to them that they're a Shadowhunter." Alec had finally caught up to me and clapped a hand on my shoulder.
"What did you say?" He asked me, whirling me around.
"Look, how the hell else would she be able to see us?" I asked him.
"Maybe he knows he's a Shadowhunter. Clary, what if he wants to hurt you?" His eyes stared into mine, feeling like they were burning through me.
"Alec. I already told you, I'm Clarissa Fairchild. Nothing. Can. Hurt. Me." I said empathizing each word.
"What if he can. Clary guys that look like that, you can't trust them."
"Look like what Alec? Attractive. You think that this is the one time I'm happy, and you have to go and spoil it." I yelled at him. His hand fell limply off my shoulder and stood up straight again.
"Oh Clary..." Izzy spoke up for the first time. She tried to comfort me but I was too pissed off at the moment.
"Piss off." I muttered and walked away. I stormed out the doors and decided to walk around the streets before I went to get Jace. It would be better for him.
JPOV
"Jace." Maia said, breaking off my thoughts.
"Huh? What?" I asked.
"I said, then where are they now?" The police officer repeated.
"They must've run off." I muttered taking Maia's arm. "Sorry officers." We pushed past them and I heard one of them mutter something about teenage drinking.
"What was that all about Jace?" Maia asked me as we walked out of the door of Pandemonium. When I didn't answer, she continued. "Jace have you been drinking?" We had now stopped at the side of the road.
"No, Maia." I said a little peeved. I ran a hand through my hair and looked at my watch and cursed. "It's late, my mom's going to kill me."
Maia sighed. "Fine. Let's get a taxi." She waved her hand in the air for a good five minutes trying to get a taxi, with no success.
"Let me." I said getting frustrated. I stepped forward and within ten seconds, we had a taxi to get into. Since my house was closer, we were headed there first. The ride seemed long and very quite.
When we got to my house, I paid for the taxi and waved bye to Maia.
"See ya later." She muttered, apparently not very happy with me. I snuck inside without a sound and got into our apartment. Luckily my mom had already gone to bed, so I just went to my room and collapsed on the bed. Sleep soon found me, and took over, leaving me to dream of the gorgeous redhead from earlier that night.
Kay that was not as long as I thought.... SORRY but my homework is more than I thought... Get back to you soon! And remember to review!!
