The Gang are reunited with Clary and she tells them part of her secret.

Castle, Edom

The gang all landed out of the portal in an elaborate throne room, their were two thrones on the podium and one was occupied by none other than Johnathan Morganstern. The group tensed as they looked at Johnathan who was sitting in his throne with a smile on his face.

J-"Well that didn't take long. Although I knew you would jump at the opportunity to come and see Clary."

JA-"Where is she?"

J-"She's dealing with something a moment, she'll be here in a second. But while we wait, how have you all been? I hear you have been on a relentless quest to try and find my sister even though she told you in her letters that you have to let her go."

I-"She never explained why she left, I feel like she wasn't telling us the whole truth."

J-"No she wasn't but that's what I've brought you all here for. To find out the truth."

The doors then opened revealing Lilith and Clary, they both enter the room looking between Johnathan and the guests.

C-"What are you doing Johnathan?"

J-"Nothing dear sister, I was just welcoming our guests."

Clary looked at her brother with scepticism, Lilith watched the entire room looking for a threat or danger. The group from Earth watched Clary, they watched as her posture was different, she held herself differently and she had this new energy about her.

Clary looked at the group giving them a small smile but before she could dress them the doors flew open again as a young girl with bright red hair ran into the room in a hurry.

CE-"Mommy!"

The young girl looked around the room before her eyes landed on Clary and she rushed over to her. Clary looked worried as she bent down hugging the young girl.

C-"Celine, what is it?"

The young girl spoke with her voice filled with fear.

CE-"I didn't know where you were. You said that I would never be alone and I was alone."

C-"It's alright princess, mommy's here."

As the mother and daughter were locked in an embrace everyone watched with curiosity especially Jace. He knew from just looking at the young girl that she was Clary's daughter but he couldn't believe that she was his. It wasn't until Clary said her name, Celine, after his birth mother that he believed it even more, Jace was pulled out of his trance by Clary's voice.

C-"Cece, why don't you and Uncle Johnathan go and play while me and Lilith talk to our friends?"

Celine looked to Johnathan as he nodded his head before leading the young girl out of the room, the rest of them watched them leave and as the doors shut Clary took a deep breath.

S-"Fray, what is going on?"

Clary looked around the room before answering.

C-"Not here, follow me."

The group followed Clary and Lilith to the Castle library, once they were all in the room, Lilith made sure to lock the door and place a spell around the room.

I-"What are you doing?"

L-"Soundproof spell, make sure no one can here us."

J-"Why?"

C-"Because the more people that know this the more dangerous it is."

A-"Clary, It's time to explain."

C-"Like I told you all in those letters, my punishment from Raziel was for my memories and gifts to be taken away, now what Raziel didn't know was that I was pregnant. So Ithuriel came up with a plan to keep me and Celine safe. The night I left the institute, I met Lilith and Ithurial outside, he stopped Raziel's punishment and then brought me straight here. Where I have been for the past five years."

S-"Five years?'

C-"Time moves more quickly here."

M-"What about Johnathan?"

C-"Ithurial brought him back to life but he can never leave Edom."

I-"Why did Ithurial stop your punishment?"

Clary looked at Lilith, Alec and Magnus before answering.

C-"He said that I bring balance to the realms. Because I'm one of Valentine's experiments I bring a balance between the good and the evil."

J-"What about Celine? Why keep her a secret?"

Clary sighed before speaking.

C-"Celine is half of me and half of Jace, now what is special about me and Jace?"

M-"You're Valentine's experiments."

C-"Exactly, when we are separate me and Jace are strong but together…"

L-"You're unstoppable. If any Shadowhunter's, Angels, Downworlder's or Demons found out about Celine's existence then their would be a war for who could get to her first."

The group remained silent for a moment before Clary spoke,

C-"Lilith will take you guys on a tour. Jace can I speak to you?"

Jace nods his head before following Clary out of the room.
