-Clary POV-
I wake up at Luke's house. My mother was shocked when she saw me and I told her I'm not going back. I had to tell her about the whole attack with help from Luke. His pack heard about it minutes after the thing was over. He told me that Raphael's clan was completely wiped out. He won't be able to bug Simon anymore. He is supposed to come over this morning. I quickly dress and run out as he is knocking at the door.
"Hey Simon,"
"Hey, your back!"
"Yesh, What do you want to do?"
"Wanna get breakfast?"
"Sure," I say knowing Simon will just order coffee. "Let's go to Veselka."
-Angel POV-
Fang finishes and we all stare open-mouthed at him.
"What?" he asks.
"Dude that's like the most you ever said in one sitting!" screams Iggy. Everyone must notice their reaction because they all close our mouths. Some weird guy with sparkles comes out.
"Maximum is awake now, but I suggest only one of you to go see her." He turns away but quickly turns back, "And the one of you that can read minds I suggest you stay out of hers." He walks away. Everyone, but Iggy, turns and gives me a death stare.
"Ok! I will." I say then look at Fang with everyone else.
"Go ahead Fang," snickers Iggy, "Max and Fang sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love then comes marriage. Then comes a baby in a baby carriage." Everyone but Fang starts laughing. Fang gets up and goes down the hallway the sparkly dude came down.
-Cammie POV-
My mom is already at the dinner when I push the door open. I head straight to her.
"Hey sweetie, I got you pancakes."
"Thanks Mom, are you going to the Institute?"
"Yeah, there is supposed to be a meeting.
"Did you hear anything about Bex or Macey?"
"No," The door opens. Clary comes in and has a friend with her. They sit down two booths from us and order.
"Clary's here."
"Go say hi," I get up and walk over to them.
"Hey,"
"Oh, Hi. This is Simon," says Clary.
"Hey" says the pale boy called Simon.
"Clary did you hear anything from the Institute?" I ask.
"Magnus is still working on everyone." She says reaching for ringing phone. "Izzy, one sec." she opens it and begins to talk. Simon and I stand here awkwardly in silence. "I got to go guys. It's something about Max. See you later guys." She grabs her stuff and leaves Simon follows leaving money on the table. I sit down with my mom and eat my pancakes.
-Fang POV-
When I open the door I'm directed to I find Max lying on a bed with her eyes closed, almost peaceful. I grab the chair next to her when she turns her head and opens her eyes.
"Fang, what the hell happened?" Good ole Max is back. I give her a brief summary. She seems to get the whole demons are real thing better than the rest of us.
"Where are we?"
"New York, at a place called The Institute." Her eyes quickly widen and do a search. "No, a good place they healed you and had us a place to stay. Angel didn't get anything." She relaxes a little bit but I can tell she's still on guard.
"Where's the flock?"
"Outside only one could come in."
"Angel and Gazzy are still in Virginia right?"
"Well, no. they flew here half an hour ago."
"They did what?"
"Angel's idea,"
"I'm gunna kill her!"
"Iggy's words," Maryse opens the door and calls me out.
She shows me to an office with a bunch of people around a table. A quick scan shows me that Ms. Morgan is here. I sit down and Maryse starts.
"Few of you have just learned of our world for the first time. The Shadow World is ideally keeps its affairs to itself. We had mundanes attacked but it was the nature of these kids that need attention. Many of you heard that a group that was attacked was bird-kids. The other was a group of spies in training. I have sent an emergency notice to the Clave."
"Maryse, they must have more important things!" says a man at the table.
"We are dealing with the U.S. government. The Clave is needed. One of the victims has awoken. When the others do we will have questions. An entire vampire clan was knocked out. We all know Raphael had it coming, but the New Accords were just signed!" the other people around the table murmur something. "Ms. Morgan and Fang you may go now." Not much of a discussion.
