Alec and Izzy were sitting on a bed as their father helped Alec. Marley stood by them as Alec hissed in pain, then their father told to him. "Don't squirm."

"I'm not. It doesn't even hurt." Alec told to his father as then his phone started to vibrate, he grabbed his phone as then Izzy looked at him.

"No talking just healing." Izzy told to her brother as then she grabbed the phone and motion that Marley must follow her, so she that as Izzy picked the phone up as they were walking in the hallway.

"Alec, I need you." Jace said immediately.

"It's Izzy and Marley." Izzy told to Jace. "We need you. There's been an attack at the Institute."

"An attack?" Jace asked.

"Valentine created a Forsaken that went through the wards." Markey replied to him.

"That's not possible, Marley, Izzy. Nothing can get through the wards." Jace told to them over the phone. "They're… They're warlock spells to defend against all Downworlders."

"Not this one. It had Seelie blood with angel properties. Jace, it went after Hodge and Alec." Izzy told to him.

"And me." Marley told to him.

"Are they okay? Is Alec…" Jace trailed off.

"They're banged up, but they'll live. Hodge killed it. It was after the…" Izzy was interrupted by Clary.

"The Cup." She said.

"Izzy, Marley, I'll be there as soon as I can." Jace told to them as he hang up.

Not much later Magnus was in the institute, he put some protection spells on the walls of the institute. Then Robert asked to Magnus. "Are the wards solid now? Nothing will get through?"

"Even my magic has limits. The wards won't hold off that Forsaken attack. But my protections will slow them down." Magnus replied to him.

"Extra time is priceless." Robert told to him, looking at the wall.

"No say that after you get my bill." Magnus comment.

Robert walked past them. "Lydia will take care of that."

"A Forsaken wound often needs a little warlock TLC May I?" Magnus stepped a bit forwards to Alec. "Uh, free of charge."

"It's okay. I'm fine." Alec reassured him. Marley looked at him as well as Magnus.

"If anything were to happen to you…" Magnus told to him as then he glanced at Marley.

"Magnus I'm good. All right? I gotta…" Alec was interrupted.

"Go?" Magnus told to him. "Of course. You're a busy man. And I should find this Lydia person. Payment upfront is just smart business. Where might I find her?"

"I haven't seen her." Alec told to him. "But if I do, I'll send her your way." Then he walked away from them.

Then Marley spoke to Magnus. "Something fishy is going on."

Magnus motion to her that they needed to go somewhere else. They walked to somewhere more privately. "Something with the clave right?"

"Yeah." Marley looked at her father. "It is, is just with whole place." She made a waved with her arms. "The things that happen, I don't feel safe here anymore."

"With Valentine return and the Clave extreme things, I know that I also wouldn't be safe here anymore." Magnus looked at his daughter. "That's why, I want you to come with me."

"You want me to come with you?" Marley asked shocked.

"Yes, for your safety and I know you are Shadowhunter and you know." Magnus waved with his hand a little. "I want you safe, pumpkin."

Marley looked around to see if there was a Shadowhunter near them, there wasn't, so she replied to her father. "I would love to come with you, dad."

Magnus beamed. "You would love to meet the other witches and wizards and you will be more practicing magic."

"Okay, then I will pack and say to others I'm leaving." Marley told to her father with a smile.

"Then I will put some more of the protection spells on the institute." Magnus looked at her.

"I see you, when I'm done with packing, dad." Marley looked happy.

Magnus nodded to her. "See you soon, pumpkin."

Then Marley walked away as Magnus put on some more protection spells on the institute.

Arrived in her room, Marley looked immediately through her stuff with a suitcase on her bed. She grabbed at shirt as then she heard a voice behind her. "Marley, what are you doing?" She turned around to see Izzy there.

'Shit.' She thought. 'She doesn't know that Magnus is my dad.' Marley looked at her. "Packing, I'm leaving." She replied to her.

"Why?" Izzy asked confused.

Marley sighed. "I don't feel safe here anymore. In the mundane way we pack and leave the place and move else were, but we come a few times back if it feel safe ones again." She explained it to her.

Izzy nodded to her as she understands her, then she asked to her. "Where will you be going then?"

"I'm going to Magnus's place." Marley replied to her.

"Why would you go there?" Izzy asked confused.

"Because, uh, I told you who my biological parents are. Well Magnus is my dad." Marley replied to her as she put a shirt into her suitcase.

"What?!" Izzy asked shocked. "But witches or wizards can't have children."

"Well, my mother broke the code of that." Marley replied to her, sheepishly.

Izzy stood there dumbfounded. "Can you explain?"

"I can't, you have to ask Magnus himself." Marley replied to her while she lied to her. She did know how it happened, but didn't want to her.

"Oh, well I leave you alone with the packing." Izzy told her as then she leave her room.

Marley could pack her stuff now peacefully, without interruptions.

"She calls Meliorn in and arrests him, then acts like it's all out of her hands." Izzy rattled as then Alec punched the bag, but hurt himself. "You're gonna hurt yourself."

"I'm fine, Izzy." Alec looked at her. "It was the Clave that gave the order, not Lydia."

"Are you sure about that?" Izzy asked to him.

Then Jace walked towards them as he asked to Alec. "Hey. You all right?"

"I'm fine." Alec replied to him, irritated.

"I just spoke to Robert and Maryse. They're being sent back to Idris." Jace told to them.

"What?" Izzy asked confused.

"Yeah." Jace replied to her.

"Another "order" from Lydia?" Izzy looked at Alec.

"Who's Lydia?" Jace asked confused.

Just then Marley walked towards them as she heard Jace asking a question and replied to him. "She's in charge of the Institute."

"She's what?" Jace asked confused, again.

"Temporarily." Alec replied tiredly.

"And now she's convinced the Clave that Mom and Dad aren't doing their job?" Izzy asked to Alec, angry.

"Well, maybe they aren't." Alec replied to her. "The Institute was under their control when the Forsaken got in."

"What are you talking about?" Jace asked, even more confused now.

"Mom and Dad were members of the Circle." Alec replied, seriously.

Jace and Izzy looked at him shocked. "What?"

"They don't have Circle runes." Izzy reasoned.

"That's because they made a deal with the Clave prior to the Uprising. In exchange for their cooperation, they were pardoned." Alec explained it to them.

"You're questioning their loyalty?" Izzy stepped backwards from Alec.

"Valentine is back. The Circle is rising. They're under suspicion." Alec replied to her.

"No way. Robert and Maryse took me in." Jace told to Alec. "They raised me as one of their own. I know what kind of people they are."

"Are you sure?" Alec stepped forwards to them. "They lied to us. For years, they've been telling us how to act. That we have to uphold the Lightwood name. Well, they're the ones who tarnished it. They're hypocrites."

Just then Lydia walked towards them. "You must be Jace Wayland. Lydia Branwell. You're quite the legend back in Idris."

"Don't believe everything you hear." Jace looked at her, his arms crossed.

"Did you tell them?" Lydia looked at Alec.

Then Marley stepped to them. "Tell us what?" She asked to her as she looked at her.

"Lydia and I are engaged." Alec didn't look into her eyes as he spoke.

"We're getting married." Lydia told them happily.

"You're not serious. You were supposed to tell them "no." It's your life to ruin." Izzy told them as then she grabbed Marley by the arm and she took her with her. They walked out of the training room.

"Not sure what to say." Jace comment.

"How about, "None of this matters"? We have to stop Valentine." Alec told to him.

"Finally. Something we agree on." Jace told him as then he also walked out of the training room.

Izzy turned the monitor on to see Lydia and the guards and they pushed Meliorn on the couch. They looked at it as then Izzy said. "This is insane. We have to put a stop to this."

"Yeah, well, enjoy Portaling back to Idris with Mom and Dad." Alec told to his sister.

"Meliorn is here because of me." Izzy snapped at her brother.

"Alec's right. There's nothing we can do to stop this interrogation." Jace explained.

"You're on Alec's side now?" Izzy asked to Jace.

Alec replied instead. "We swore to protect each other, of course he's on my side."

"I'm not picking sides. Jace Wayland is Switzerland." Jace comment to them.

"We have got to find Valentine." Izzy told them.

"Let's let this play out, Izzy." Jace tried to reassure her. "Meliorn might have some important information."

Them they watched the monitor as then Marley came to them. "What's going on?" She asked as she approached them.

"They are question him." Alec replied to her.

"Why?" Marley asked to him.

"They arrested him, because they think he is working with Valentine." Izzy replied to her, hearing her angry voice in the sentence.

Marley looked shocked at Izzy. "Why didn't you tell me earlier, when you were in my room?"

Izzy looked back at her. "You were packing!"

"Yes, I was, but you could have told me!" Marley snapped a little.

"I was shocked, okay, that you are leaving here." Izzy snapped.

Then boys looked at them shocked. "Leaving?" Alec asked to the girls.

"Yes, I'm leaving." Marley replied to him.

"She going to Magnus." Izzy interrupted.

Jace looked more confused than ever as he asked to Marley. "Why are you leaving?"

"I need some space, Jace. From all of this." Marley pointed al around her.

Then Alec spoke up. "It's, because that I'm getting married?" He pointed at himself. Izzy snarled at her brother angry.

"No." Marley replied to him, immediately. "It's just that, I want to get away from were. I don't feel safe here anymore, okay."

"Why is that?" Jace asked to her.

"The forsaken." Marley replied to him, feeling afraid of it.

"The forsaken is dead, it can't hurt you anymore." Izzy told her.

"I know, I know." Marley looked at her friend. "I'm just afraid and I want to place were I can feel safe again." Izzy nodded to her. "I will still come here, but I won't live here anymore."

"Why leave? Why don't you stay here and feel safe again here?" Alec asked to her.

"I can't answer that, Alec." Marley replied to him, seriously.

"Why?" Alec pressed.

"That's enough, Alec." Izzy snapped at her brother.

Then Marley said to them. "I'm going to my room, you were you can find me, 'till evening." Then she walked away from them all.

Later that day, Marley was still in her room, now waiting for Magnus to come pick her up. Then he came to her and asked. "Ready, little one?"

"Yes, dad." Marley replied to her father.

Then Magnus opened a portal as then he looked at her. "Shall we?"

"We shall." Marley replied to her father.

Then they walked into the portal and a second later they walked the portal again as they were in Magnus home.

"Ah, home sweet home." Magnus looked at his house.

Marley smiled at her father. "It's my home now too, right dad?" She teased.

"Yes, it is." Magnus looked at as then he told her happily. "I will show you your room." Marley nodded to her father as then he showed her, her room. "This is your room, little one."

Marley looked into her new room. "It's beautiful, dad."

"I'm glad you like it." Magnus told to her.

"I do, thank you, dad." Marley looked at her father.

"Well, I will leave you to pack out, then." Magnus told her.

"Okay." Marley nodded at then Magnus leave the room, having her to pack out.
