Taking back what doesn't belong to you and then leaving it

My anger has passed, there's an ach in my chest and all I want to do is lie down and stuff myself with ice cream. I am very happy with myself for not crying at all, for the first half hour I was pissed, and for the last fifteen minutes I've been feeling like this, I don't know what to call it. No, actually I do, heartache I think.

I try and shake it off, I don't want to think about him, but I do wether I want to or not. I sigh and try and focus my attention on my current problem. I'm trying to figure out where valentine's lair is, because that's where Jocelyne will be.

I place my right hand flat on the ground and wait. For by passes, it must look weird, but this is New York and they've probably seen stranger things as they only give me one curious look, and then ignore me. This is what I'm doing, I'm feeling the vibrations. I can feel a different one for every single this on that is touching the ground, like the person across the street is Linda, actually, I can't form names for each vibration, I just know Linda, and I wave at her. She smiles at me before gazing at my hand curiously. She doesn't seem to question it any more than every day pass byer's.

I do know Jocelyne's vibrations, so I can find her. I know it sounds weird, but it's the truth. I frown after a while, I'm not picking up much, which means she's either standing still, not touching anything that touching the ground or the ground, so basically flying, or she lying down. After a few moments I've gathered enough to know her general area.

I hail a taxi and give the driver a street name, he asks for a number, I just tell him I'll let him know when I want to stop on the street. We drive off into the crowded roads of New York.

We arrive on the street and I start to pay attention to my surroundings. When we get within the area I'm looking for, I tell the driver to stop, and then I pay him before getting out of the taxi. I'm taking in everything surrounding me as the taxi drives off. This place is a dump, and there one building isolated from the others, it looks sort off like a warehouse. I shrug my shoulder, not to anyone seeing as there wasn't anyone around, and then I head over to it. It looks abandoned, that would make it a good place to stay if your part of the shadow world and you don't want to buy a place. The other buildings which are far behind me now were occupied by something or rather, so I doubt that there in one of those buildings.

I move silently up to the door and push it open slowly, trying not to make a sound. This fails as the building is a little bit old so the door creaks loudly. I grimace at the noise and quickly close the door behind me, causing more creaks. Before I move again, I wait for any movement or sound of life, which I don't get either. The whole bottom floor is just one large room which is storing many different things.

I can see the stair case off to the side, but before I head over to it, I take a quick look through the storage. There's nothing of any significance, just crappy mundane things. But just before I turn to go to the stairs, I see something glinting in the tiniest bit of light there is in this room, which is coming from a small window which as almost fully blocked out by a cupboard. I walk over to it, trying not to make the floor boards creak too much. I lift a tattered old towel to reveal what the glinting is.

I stare at what I discovered. Now I am almost 100% sure that there on here because what I found were seraph blades and other shadow hunter weapons. I put the towel back over the box and back away towards the stairs.

I start to ascend the stairs, and when I get to the top, I stop and peep around the corner. I'm right about them being here as I see a man guarding a door, his one of the men who came to my house to take Jocelyne. Further down the hallway I see another man round a corner and head toward this man.

The man walking towards the man guarding the door calls out, "hey Pangborn, where's valentine?"

The man, Pangborn, looks up at him and nods his head in greeting, "Blackwell, I'm not sure; his not up with his wife is he? God, his gentle and nice to her and then turns into a demon when his with us."

The other man, Blackwell sighed, "damn, I need to tell him something, there was a noise downstairs that we have to go check out, he'll need to know about it or he'll tear us to bits. If his not with Jocelyne then he'll be with the boy."

Pangborn laughed slightly, "now that's someone you defiantly don't want to get on the bad side of, his worse than his father! I dread the day when he takes over."

Blackwell ran a hand threw his hair, "okay, I'll find valentine, while you go and check out what was making a noise downstairs alright?"

Pangborn nodded and start to walk in my direction, while Blackwell walked back the way her came. My eye's darted around for cover; there was none that he wouldn't see me getting into. I turned sharply on my heel and went back downstairs as silently and quickly as I could. There was a pile of boxes next to the stair way entry, I hid behind that and waited for Pangborn to come down here.

I could hear his footsteps coming down the stairs, and then I saw the light of his torch. He moved away from the stair s and began looking around; walking straight passed the boxes I was hiding behind. When he was far enough away I stood up and made my way upstairs again. I went in the direction that Blackwell went in, he was meant to be going to valentine who was meant to be with Jocelyne or I'm guessing 'Sebastian'.

I had no idea where I was going; I ended up going up another set of stairs. Then I rounded a corner, and quickly jumped back. There were to men down this hallway, they didn't see me. The majority of their backs were facing me as they were standing on an angel. I peeked around the corner and recognized both men, one was from earlier, Blackwell, and the other was tall, almost white blonde short hair. It was valentine.

I only heard the last part of their conversation, but it was enough for me.

"-down and join Pangborn, he might need help. I'll follow you down in a minute. There both in there," valentine said gesturing to a nearby door, "so off you go."

Blackwell nodded his head and walked off in my direction as valentine went into the room he had just gestured to. I turned around and quickly stepped through a door. Blackwell's footsteps grew louder and then I saw his shadow walk past the room I was hidden in. I peeked out into the hallway to make sure his back was turned and went out and rounded the corner where they had just been talking. I sped walked down and stopped at the door next to the one valentine went into, and ducked in there to wait for valentine to leave.

My heart was pounding; Jocelyne was in the room right next to me. As I waited, I realised she hadn't been gone for that long, I couldn't be any more than a week since she was taken. God, she was lucky to have me or she'd be in there a hell of a lot longer.

My thoughts were interrupted by a door opening and closing, then footsteps going passed this room and down the hallway. I waited a minute before peeking out to make sure there was no sign of anyone. There wasn't, so I stepped out and pushed the same door open that valentine just came out of. It was semi dark in here, so I could still see. My eyes went straight to the bed. There was a figure lying down on it. I walked over and saw the face of Jocelyne, still unconscious, or at least asleep.

I gently shook her shoulder to check which one it was, and then I heard a voice behind me, "she hasn't been awake for the whole time she's been here, I doubt she'll wake right now."

I knew that voice, and it filled me with dread. I mentally face palmed, I should have known, valentine had said that they were in there, not just Jocelyne. I slowly turned to face him and sighed out one word, "Sebastian."

Then I remembered, "Wait, sorry I forgot, you're not Sebastian, your Jonathan."

He was slouched against the wall, and then he straightened up, "actually, I prefer Sebastian, though I would never be called it by my father or the circle."

He started to take steps towards me, "I wouldn't take another step if I were you." I threatened him.

He chuckled but stopped, "I heard you could throw back shadow hunters, but what about half demon half shadow hunters."

I continued to glare at him, my expression not wavering in the slightest, "if I can do that to shadow hunters and kill a demon with the blink of my eye, then I could blow you to pieces to."

He frowned slightly, but then smirked at me, "well, you came here for her, but I can't let you take her can I?"

"You'll have to; the other option is to die."

Before he could get a response, the door opened. Both of our heads snapped to the opened door. It was valentine.

"Jonathon," he started, clearly not seeing me yet, "did you see whe-"

He stopped, he had just seen me. He looked shocked at first, but then a sly smile grew on his face, "well, well, well, what do we have here!"

Like Jonathon had, valentine started to walk towards me. I glared at him and growled the same this I had said to Jonathon, "I wouldn't take another step if I were you."

This caused him to hesitate for a moment, but he seemed to make up his mind and took another step forward. That was enough for me, I blinked once and he went flying back and smashed into the wall. He sunk to the floor and stayed there for a couple of seconds before climbing back to his feet. I would have thought he would be angry, but he grinned at me. I returned it with a frown.

"Ahhh, so you can do that, I wasn't sure if it was true." He paused, his eyes surveying me carefully, "but the big question is what are you?"

I stayed silent, I wasn't 100% sure if he was asking me or just stating that that was the big question was.

He didn't look all that pleased with my response, "ANSWER ME."

I smiled sweetly, "hmmm, let me see. I never told my best friend who was my first boyfriend who is now only my best friend, I never told my adoptive mother, I didn't tell any of my friends or my current boyfriend, I didn't tell the clave, so why should I be telling the bad guy?"

"I don't have much patience, and remember, I'm your adoptive father."

I laughed in disbelief, "no you're not, you never adopted me, you may be married to my adoptive mother, but that doesn't matter, she left you."

He started towards me again, this time I didn't even warn him, and for the second time he slammed against the wall. This time I kept him there, "now listen to me, I'm just here for Jocelyne, then I'll be on my way."

I heard a gurgled 'no' coming from valentine. I picked up Jocelyn in a bridal style, let valentine go before teleporting to my house. I put her down on the sofa and ran upstairs to my room. A long time ago, I was wandering around in Idris, no one knew I was there, but I was still there, and I came across a house. It was abandoned so I went inside, while I was in the library, I came across a book, book of white, it had many powerful spells in it, and I kept it. Now, I was going to my room to get it, I knew every spell in the book did, but I didn't know each spell of by heart, and I needed a warlock.

Once I found it I went back downstairs, I needed Magnus, but he was in Idris. Since we wouldn't be safe here because valentine knew where we lived, I might as well take her to Idris and get Magnus.

So that's what I did. I portled there, landing in front of a house. I tried to portal to Magnus, and since I couldn't see him, I was hoping he was in this house. I walked over and knocked on the door. After a few moments I heard footsteps approaching the door. When it opened, I was surprised to see a vampire on the other side.

The vampire just blinked at me, "can I help you?"

I came back to my senses, "oh, yes, is Magnus bane here."

His eyebrow arched, "you want Magnus?"

"Yep, I need a spell."

The vampire shook his head, "first, Magnus is expensive, so you better have a lot of money, and second, if you need a spell, I would go looking for Ragnor Fell, not this idiot."

"Hey!" a voice yelled from behind the vampire, "Raphael, you know I'm much better than Ragnor, just because you two are in love-"

"We are not in love!" the vampire, Raphael, shouted, "we're just good friends and the main thing we have in common is disliking you but putting up with you."

Magnus came up to the door next t Raphael, he was about to say something back to him when he noticed me, "Clary? Where did you go? Oh my, is that who I think it is?"

I gave him a tight smile, "it is, and it doesn't matter where I went, but I need you to make her conscious again, I have the spell, you just need to cast it."

His eyebrow arched, damn Magnus, jace, Raphael and pretty much the whole world can do that but me, "is this a charity spell then?"

I smirked at him, "I'll give you something better than money, as long as whenever I need a spell, you'll do it for free."

He frowned at me, "I'll agree to that after I know what it is, and if it's worth it."

"Oh it is."

He stepped aside and pushed Raphael to the side as well, "come in then."

I followed Magnus upstairs to the upstairs living room, Raphael didn't follow us. I put Jocelyn on the couch and turned to face Magnus, "the thing I'm going to give you is what holds the spell. The book of white."

I hold it out to Magnus and his eyes widen. I take it from me and flip through the pages; he stopped and looked at me, "okay, you've got a deal. Now which spell did you want?"

I showed him the spell and he began to chant it. When he finished, Jocelyn stirred, her eyes squeezed shut before opening, blinking several times. "Clary? Magnus?"

I sighed in relief, "Yes, it's us."

All of a sudden she sat up and looked around, "I could hear you, and I just wasn't sure where I was."

She looked at me, "Clary, how did you know about this? Are you a downworlders? But even so, I had Magnus take away your sight?"

I cast a warning look at Magnus so he knew not to say anything about what I am; he pretended to zip his lips. "ah, no I'm not a downworlders, only one other person knows what I am, and I don't plan on telling anyone else, the calve, valentine and the new York institute all tried to get it out of me, but I never told any of them. And Magnus or any other warlock can't cast spells on me, because of who I am."

Jocelyn stared at me, then shook her head, "anyway, what happened while I was out?"

"Ahhh, basically there's going to be a war against valentine." Magnus said.

Jocelyn sighed, "I thought so."

"Anyway, I'll be leaving you, call me if you need anything." Magnus said, but he paused when he got to the door and then turned around, "clary can you just come here for a moment so I can ask you something?"

I frowned, "sure, what is it?"

I went out of the room and Magnus whispered to me, "how come you couldn't just take the spell of without me?"

I smiled, "two reasons, one, because I didn't want to just hand over the book of white, and two, because I haven't been trained fully, so I can't use most of my powers."

He nodded, understanding, "okay, I'll leave you to it."

Before he could leave I grabbed his arm, "Magnus, this is goodbye for a little while, I'm going to go traveling, alone. I'll see you again one day though."

He hugged me, "okay, and goodbye clary."

I smiled, "see you Magnus."

Then we separated, he went down stairs and I went back to Jocelyn.

"Hey, I know you just woke up and all, but I'm leaving okay. Not forever, I'm just going to go and travel for a while. I'm actually leaving now, so this is goodbye until I return."

"What?" Jocelyn said, standing up, "but, okay, fine. Just stay out of trouble and be back as soon as you can."

"I will, see you."

"Goodbye clary."

And then I disappeared into thin air, I was heading for London.
