And i know you guys have had questions on what's going on but I promise everything will be cleared up by the next two chapters. Thank you!


There was darkness for a long time then i slowly opened my eyes. I felt stiff and my hair stuck to the back of my neck. I cautiously sat up and glanced around the room. I was in some type of guest room. The room was pretty big with crème colored walls and wide bay windows that lead to a balcony. A mahogany (that is mahogany!-Effie. Sorry guys I had to) dresser was pushed against the wall next to a large mirror.

I got out of bed slowly and padded in the bathroom. On the hook I found a clean tee and jeans ready to be worn. They were to big so I rolled up the sleeves and hems of my pants and shirt. I changed and brushed my teeth. I let my hair down knowing there was nothing else to do with it and walked out.

I opened the door and stepped into a cold hallway. It reminded me of something out of a fairy tale with its long red carpet and smooth stone walls. The ceiling arched its way up, somewhat like a church.

I heard faint voices down the hall. I followed them. I entered a huge dinning Hall, with a long table that probably seated about twenty-five people. However only three seats were occupied.

There was a girl with beautiful pale skin and long black hair. Beside her was a boy with the same colored hair and blue eyes. Across from them both was Jace. He was picking at his food looking extremely bored. He glanced up at me and smirked.

"and she awakens!" he said dramatically.

I grimaced. The girl looked over her shoulder at me. "who are you?" she had the same shocking blue eyes as the boy next to her. Maybe there siblings?

"I'm clary" I said meekly.

She raised an eyebrow as if saying 'and?'. I switched from foot to foot uncomfortable under her hard gaze.

"your not allowed to bring mundanes here jace" she said turning to him.

I had no idea what a mundane was but apparently jace did. He leant back in his chair putting his hands behind his head and said "she's not a mundane. I marked her yesterday when I saved her from a deverk demon"

the girl glanced back up to me shrugged and said"ok then"

I just stood there. I'm not sure i liked this girl with her attitude but she was something else. Jace raised an eyebrow at me while gesturing to the seat next to him. I pulled a chair out and sat down. There was a bowl of fruit in the middle of the table. I reached out and grabbed an apple.

"so. I'm Isabelle this is my brother Alec-" she said gesturing to the blue eyed boy. He waved at me.

"and that's jace" jace looked up from his plate of food. he had his fork halfway to his mouth."we've met" is all he said.

he suddenly looked tense. isabelle didn't seem to notice, or she just didn't care because she babbled on. After about ten minutes of her talking about some shoes she saw at Macy's I interrupted.

"so what are shadowhunters? I mean what do they do?" Jace's head popped up from behind his book and Alec who seemed to have been sleep sniffled and focused his eyes on me. Isabelle just huffed obviously annoyed by the boys lack of attention to her "interesting" story.

"well shadowhunters are the warriors that protect the world." Alec said.

"from what?" i asked. "demons" jace said.

he was staring intently. Once again I didn't really know what to say to that so i decoded to sit quietly. Alec looked mildly interested while izzy just looked pissed that no one would listen to her. it brought me mild satisfaction.

"You really don't know anything do you?" jace said bluntly. it felt more as an accusation than a question. i shook my head. "should I?" I said. Jace was about to speak but Alec interupted. "we should go to the silent city the brothers might be able to help" Alec said.

"whats the silent city?" i asked.

"you'll see." Isabelle said with a glint in her eyes.

"we should go" Alec said. he stood up.

"sit down Alec. I'll take her." Jace said grabbing a long coat and throwing it on. Alec hesitated then sat back down.

Jace walked over to the door and said "come on clary"

i stood and followed him out. Behind me i could hear Isabelle continue her lovely story about her quest for shoes.


I may post another chapter today so comment and stay tuned.
