Hi, here is the next chapter. Sorry it took a while. Please read the A/N at the bottom. :)
Once everyone was seated, Magnus began to speak about Clary.
"Clary was selfless, loyal, brave, courage, and caring. She was raised a mundane but turned out as a hero for the shadowhunters who she had known only for a few months. She could have turned her back on us, but she didn't. She protected us from the kindness of her heart. I knew her since she was a little girl, ever since Jocelyn came knocking on my door for me to remove her memories. I watched her grow up into this beautiful, young, selfless woman with a beautiful heart. Nobody will ever replace that little biscuit in my heart, and I think the same goes for all of you." He was met with a chorus of nods.
"Could I go next?" said Simon, wiping away a few tears.
"Of course," said Magnus. "We can go around the circle." Simon began.
"Clary was my best friend since we were six. She was there for me when I accidentally ate all the pieces from Hungry Hippos. She was there with me as we suffered through Eric's devastating poetry readings." That got a few laughs. "Most importantly, she was there for me when I first became a vampire. She helped me get through that and she was the one to give me the Mark of Cain which saved my life so many times. I will never be able to thank her and now she is dead. She died saving all of us. She was brave, selfless, loyal, and kind. Whenever she saw someone sad at St. Xavier's, she would go comfort them. She loved art and she definitely loved being a shadowhunter. But the thing she loved most was Jace." He turned to Jace, "She loved you, and if you ever forget that, I will personally hunt you down." Jace looked nervous but he nodded. Magnus told Izzy to go next. She rarely made speeches but what she said next was beautiful.
"I think Clary was beautiful in her own special way. Most people think that beauty is about your appearance, but Clary was beautiful on the inside. Before you say anything, Jace, I am NOT saying that she was ugly. She was definitely pretty on the outside, but on the inside she was caring and kind. She went out of her way to help others and she would gladly give up her own life to save another person's. I mean, she just did, right? Clary was beautiful on the inside and didn't care what people thought. That is why every Friday, I am going to forget about my appearance and wear paint-stained clothes and then go out somewhere in her honor."
"Wow, Izzy, that's pretty hard core, but I think I'm gonna join you." Said Magnus. "I will drop all my glitter in her honor and I think the rest of you should too" There was a chorus of nods and everyone agreed to Izzy and Magnus' ideas. Next up was Alec.
"When I first saw Clary, I had no faith in her and I looked down on her as a mundane. I absolutely despised her, but that wasn't the only reason…" he trailed off and looked at Magnus who nodded. He then looked at Izzy who nodded as well. Alec looked up at Jace. "I hated her because Jace was totally and utterly head over heels into her and I was in love with Jace at that time." Jace had a look of utter shock on his face.
"You WHAT?!" Jace shouted.
"I had a crush on you." Alec replied. "Well, then I found Magnus and I realized that I could move on from you and still find love. Then, I started to get to know Clary and she became practically another sister to me." His eyes had begun getting glossy. "Clary was an amazing person, Jace, and you are truly lucky to have had her love as are all of us."
"That was beautiful Alec. I love you." Magnus said. He was feeling sad, but he was also proud of his boyfriend for finally telling Jace. "Jocelyn and Luke, would you like to say something."
"Yes," said Jocelyn, "Clary was my daughter and so I obviously loved her, but she held an extremely special place in my heart especially after Jonathan," she broke down sobbing. Luke continued for her.
"Clary was special for us because we still had her after losing Jonathan. She might have been Valentine and Jocelyn's daughter but I always felt a fatherly connection to her and I hope she felt the same way. But she was a beautiful person and it warms our hearts knowing that she had such wonderful friends." Jocelyn continued then.
"I am very grateful to all of you for being there for Clary. Jace, I want to apologize. I know I should have said this before, but I never actually hated you. I just didn't want Clary to be a part of the Shadow World. She really loved you and if I ever gave anyone permission to date and marry her, Jace, you would have been the one to gain my permission. She loved you Jace, never forget that." Luke and Jocelyn then left because Jocelyn was unable to keep herself together. Finally it was Jace's turn.
"Words cannot describe how much I loved Clary. She was my life, my everything. Without her I don't know how I will survive, but I will in order for her not to have died in vain. She was beautiful, selfless, caring, kind, brave, courageous, and she was a fighter. She didn't deserve to die like this. Clary deserved to live longer., It was me who should have died. I don't know how I will live without her!" Tears fell from Jace's eyes for the one of the very few times in his entire life. He tried composing himself, but Magnus could tell it wasn't working. Suddenly, he remembered a spell he had seen once. It was a spell to revive people, but for a cost. Magnus quickly walked over to Jace and whispered,
"Come with me to the library. I need your help finding something." Jace looked up questioningly. Magnus just nodded towards the door.
"We will be back soon, just give us a few minutes."
Magnus and Jace left the room and made their way down the hall.
So, I have a vague path for where this story should go, but I really need ideas, so I would really appreciate it if you could leave me a review!
