Jace and the others entered the Institute...with a werewolf and a mundie. Jace had a feeling...Alec was going to be pissed off when he saw them. Jace didn't want those two boys to join, it just meant more work for them. "Skye...you can't be here, I can take you Clary to my pack, we can protect you." Darren said as Simon blinked slowly still trying to process what was going on. Jace snorted as he stopped in front of one of the screen with Skylar beside his side, she watched him search for whatever he had to search for.

"Sorry, Darren. But I need to stay close to my parabatai and The Institute can provide protection that werewolves can't." Skylar said and glanced at him.

"Plus we kind of have a thing." Jace said and smirked as he also glanced at Darren who gritted his teeth. "A very hot thing."

"He's kidding." Skylar said and nudged Jace who chuckled.

"What's a shadowhunter?" Simon finally asked, Clary looked over at him and sighed before speaking.

"They protect humans from demons."

"That makes perfect sense, 'cause there are demons running all around New York." Simon said and chuckled, he glanced at Darren who gave him a serious look. "There's no way."

"You are right Simon...there are demons running around New York.." Darren said, Simon nodded slowly not fully understanding what was truly going on.

"What is going on? Why is there a mundane in the Institute? And a werewolf?" Alec asked, walking over with his arms crossed. His usual, serious and emotionless look in his eyes. Isabelle stood by his side eyeing the mundane.

"A Circle member followed him to get to the girls." Jace said quickly, he was not in the mood to argue with Alec about this. The choice was already made and they couldn't take it back.

"A Circle rune, just like the guys that took my mother." Clary said

"What exactly is a Circle member and why are they trying to kill us?" Simon asked, Darren shook his head and sighed.

"All we know is a long time ago the Circle led a revolt." Alec began to explain before looking over at Jace to finish off.

"A lot of Shadowhunters got killed including my father. And since the revolt we've been forbidden to even hear about the Circle." Jace said and crossed his arms over his chest.

"But, how is that even possible? It's your history." Clary said, Skylar arched an eyebrow and shook her head before chuckling.

"Says the girl who didn't know she was a Shadowhunter?" Skylar said and Clary chuckled.

"Okay, you got a point." The red head said giving her sister the point here. "Anyways, how do we get the information we need?"

"Skye and I will handle speaking to Hodge." Jace said and held out his hand to the blonde, who smiled and took his hand, following him away.

"This is my brother, Alec and I'm Isabelle Lightwood." She said introducing herself to Simon who gulped and gazed at her.

"Simon. Simon Lewis." He said and paused when he realized how he introduced himself. Isabelle chuckled and smirked...oh she was going to get along wit him. "Two first names. Am I still talking?" Darren nodded and patted his shoulder.

"Stop talking.." Darren whispered, Simon nodded and gulped before following Isabelle away like a lost puppy. Alec left not wanting to deal with Clary...he found her quite annoying and suspicious. Darren sighed and shook his head. "I don't like that Jace guy.." Clary arched an eyebrow and looked at him.

"Jace seems to like Skye..a bit too much in my opinion."

After speaking to Hodge, Skylnn had no idea what to think at this point. There was no way this was truly happening...her mother was kidnapped by her father and only she knew that. Jace had gone to fill Clary in, and the red head may have started to panic a bit as she walked to the entrance of The Institute before pacing back and forth. "My mind is blank!" Clary said with a sigh of defeat, Skylar ran a hand through her hair and shook her head.

"Clare-bear, there has got to be something...I-I was never home. I stayed with one of my mom's friend..." Skye said slowly moving to Clary who backed up a bit, shakng her head before gasping. Skylar took a step back bumping into Jace, who put his hands on her shoulder making sure she didn't fall. "Sorry." She said as she glanced back at him.

"It's fine.." He whispered before shifting his gaze from her to Clary who was in shock.

"I-I know where Dot is...she can help us..."

"Dorothea? She wasn't at the apartment..I assumed she was taken or worse...dead." Skylar admitted and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Skye...she may be the only person who can truly help us...she has to know where mom is and why this is happening!" Clary said before walking past the two blondes heading up the steps, Skylar turned around and looked up at Jace.

"Your sister..has major mood swings." Jace said with a chuckle, Skylar nodded and sighed.

"Yeah...she's been acting a bit odd since we got here. Give her time to adjust...she isn't like me. I was raised and trained in this world..and she knows nothing about the shadow world." She explain which was true, she can remember all the times she wished...she could tell her sister everything. Why she had bruises and cut, why she had scars on her hands and why she never was there...all because she was involved in her world...the shadow world.

"How are you feeling about this entire situation?" Jace asked and crossed his arms over his chest, Skye simply shrugged.

"No idea." She admitted, now that she noticed..all she was truly worried about was Clary and Jocelyn...that was pretty much it and all the pressure she was under. "Just a bit worried...but it'll go away after we find my mother and my sister begins to settle down a bit...but it's fine."
