Disclaimer: I don't own the Mortal Instruments characters but I do however own this plot. I'm just fangirl-ing around. Enjoy!
As we all walk down the street to the Pandemonium I can hear whispers between Magnus and Izzy about how I developed curves and a sense of style. I've always had a sense of style and I liked it but some people just don't appreciate my simplicity.
Once we passed the bouncer I instantly spotted the demons, there were two, both male.
"There mine." I smirked. Before anyone can protest I walked over to the bar and ordered tequila. The bar tender handed the tequila, I took it reluctantly, putting the lime in my mouth and then licking the salt off my fingers. I never liked tequila but tried not to make a face. The demons seemed to notice me while I danced. I try not to look sick because I can see right through their glamour's and it's not a pretty sight. One of the demons makes a grab for my ass but I pull away laughing and started walking towards the storage room. I turned around, winked and bit my lip then turned back around. They seemed to have got the message and followed me to the storage room. Closing the door behind them they turned to me, looking hungrily up and down me.
"Aren't you pretty." The one demon looked at me and smirked. I just looked at him and giggled.
"What's your name?" The second demon took a step forward and so did I.
I laughed flirtatiously and leaned up against the shape shifter trying not cringe and whispered. "Clary but you may know me as Clarissa Adele Morgenstern." I backed away and grabbed some blades and smirked up at the shocked demons.
"Shadowhunter." The first demon whispered through gritted teeth.
"Got you!" I smirked and threw a blade at the first demon that instantly disappeared leaving no trace of it. I walked up to the second demon and was about to stab him but the next words he says sent shivers down my spine.
"Sebastian Morgenstern he's here, he's here for you. You can't hide from him. He's in New York and knows where you are." The demon just looks calm and then grabs the blade from my hand and stabs itself. I just stare at the ground where the demon disappeared and heard the door open. I look up to see Jace and Alvin look at me, concern in their eyes.
"I should've of known you wouldn't wait but-" Alvin looks at me and sees my expression. "What's wrong? Are you hurt?" He takes a step forward and I shake my head vigorously.
"Clary what's wrong?" I look to see Jace beside me looking more worried than last time. My heart skips a beat as I look at his golden eyes.
"Can we talk about this later, I need a break." They looked hesitant at first but then let me go. I walked out and immediately noticed Izzy and Simon making out while also noticing Alec and Magnus making out. I rolled my eyes trying to find Amelia, I noticed a glint of white hair exiting through the crowd and my immediate reaction is to follow it. I walk in-between dancers and people grinding against each other. I see him there, Sebastian. Our eyes meet for a second and he smirks and turns around. I look around and lost sight of anyone I knew, the next thing I can do is follow him. I walk through the crowd and past the bouncers, still following him. I stayed back knowing he knew I was following him. This is stupid Clary…but also too late to turn back. He turns left and walks into an alley. Great! I follow him, when he stops walking I stop only a couple of metres away from him. I grab a knife and throw it at him knowing that even blessed weapons can't kill him let alone hurt him. But he does bleed. The blade goes right threw him and I just gasp. Hologram.
"Hello dear sister." He turns around and smirks. I try not to cringe away from him.
"What do you want?" I said as bitter as possible. He smirked looking at my disgusted face.
"I want Clarissa to come out, little sister." He says. "You know you like her. She will teach you how to live and let you be loose. You will have no worries at all."
"I DON'T WANT THAT!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
"THAT'S RIGHT CLARY, LET THE ANGER OUT! I KNOW WHAT YOU WANT. YOU'RE JUST LIKE ME!" He seems to screaming in encouragement
"SHUT UP! I'M NOTHING LIKE YOU!" I scream back while growling at him.
"YOU ARE AND YOU ALWAYS WILL BE! JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF!" He screams and points to a broken mirror in the alley. I go up to it and see that my eyes are black like Sebastian's except my mouth is open full of horror. I scream and punch the mirror breaking it in half then fall to my knees sobbing. "I told you, you're just like me. You belong to me and I belong to you." He whispered into my ear and disappeared.
I heard footsteps echoing in the alley. Crap!
"CLARY!" I heard Jace's voice and then footsteps and then more footsteps, until I can feel all their eyes on me. I can't look at any of them because I know what they're going to say. Jace kneels down beside me and grabs my hand. I can hear gasps all around me; my hand was all bloody, glass shards sticking out of my knuckles. "What happened?" He whispered as if I'm an animal that can be scared off easily. I waited a while before responding.
"Sebastian, he found me." I sounded like I have been crying for hours. When he didn't respond I knew he wanted more information. "He was here right before you got here."
"What did he do?" His voice still containing the same gentleness but now contains anger and annoyance.
"That's just it; he didn't do anything this time. It's all me., Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa." I said.
"What's your fault Clary?" I don't look at him and I know it's bothering him. "Look at me Clary." I don't look up and I can tell he is getting impatient. He gently raises my chin but I kept my eyes closed. "Open your eyes Clary. Please." When I couldn't take his pleading voice I opened my eyes thinking… you'll never look at me the same. He gasped back with surprise and I couldn't help but feel hurt. I heard Isabelle whisper then Alec say something to her angrily but I heard.
"Sebastian." She whispers. Finally I let myself cry and I felt normal again. I felt. Something Sebastian can never do. He only owns.
Jace's POV
I saw Clary on her knees just looking at the bloody broken mirror. My heart leaped as I got closer, seeing the amount of blood. Everyone else follows me but I don't care all I care about right now is Clary. I knelt down next to Clary and see her bloody hand. My heart skips another beat, my Clary, she's hurt and I wasn't there. I remind myself that Clary is not mine anymore.
"What happened?" I whisper trying to calm her down. She waited a while before responding.
"Sebastian, he found me." She sounded like she's been crying and I felt my heartbreak a little. When I stay silent she knows that I want her to go on. "He was here right before you got here." Now I just felt angry that I wasn't here to size that bastard up.
"What did he do?" My voice came out with multiple emotions but I remained gentle.
"That's just it; he didn't do anything this time. It's all me, Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa." She sounded broken but tried to hide but I can hear her emotions like music.
"What's your fault Clary?" I was getting slightly annoyed that she wasn't looking at me at all she just looked down at the ground. "Look at me Clary." But wasn't cooperating and I was getting impatient. I wanted to be there for her, I wanted to be her shield. So I raised her chin so she'd face me but her eyes were shut tight, almost like a frightened child that saw a ghost. "Open your eyes Clary. Please." I pleaded and I finally felt her relax like she was holding her breath all this time. She opened her eyes and I gasped back with surprise, I could see hurt flash behind her eyes.
"Sebastian." I heard Isabelle whisper, I turned and glared at her as she covered her mouth. I heard Clary break into little sobs, my heart finally just broke. Seeing her so broken just sent me on the revenge train and my destination is killing Sebastian. I swore on the Angel that Sebastian will die and I couldn't wait for that day to come.
A/N: So that quote "Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa" is from a part of The Mass and was mentioned in the City Of Bones; chapter 19 Abbadon. It means "My fault, my own fault, my most grievous fault." It's Latin."I hope you guys enjoyed this and please leave a review. Until next time my fellow zebracornz (zebraz+unicornz=zebracornz). I know sad.
