Chapter Eight: Paybacks a B**ch

CPOV:

It was a few minutes before lunch ended and Clary managed to get to her locker before being spotted by anybody who might talk her ear off or worse try to fight her or argue with her thinking she is trying to get with the school's apparent manwhore Jace Herondale.

"You're the Fairchild trouble maker huh?" Clary heard a couple of feet away from her.

'Well, here we go again another asshole.' Clary thought to herself grabbing a sharpened pencil and clutching it in her right hand before turning to give the voice her full attention.

The guy had short ruffled black hair with piercing blue eyes and a permanent scowl on his face. His uniform shirt was wrinkled and the tie was loosely hanging around his neck.

"What do you want dude? I have nothing to say to anybody around her." Clary said closing her locker and turning to leave before she felt a hand on her shoulder and being slammed against the locker. The shock of being slammed caused her to gasp in shock.

"Look here you fucking parasite. Sign the little piece of Idris away to Jace and stay the fuck away from him. He has enough problems without trash like you holding him down." The boy went grabbed Clary's neck before giving it a good squeeze. "Do I make myself clear? Stay away from him, my sister Isabelle, and me Alec. Or your stay will be very unpleasant here." Alec said going to squeeze again until Clary slammed the sharpened pencil as hard as she could into his left leg causing Alec to scream letting go of her neck. Clary brought her knee upright between his knees causing him to grunt and call to his knees.

Clary gasped relishing as the air hit her lungs and took off down the hallway. She ran grabbing her phone and dialing Jordan's number. She turned towards the lunchroom, running into another human being and immediately screamed.

'He's going to get me… He is going to get me….' Clary thought as arms shoot out to hold her steady.

"Hey! Clary, it's me! You alright? What happened?" Jordan says hands lightly running over the forming bruise around Clay's neck.

"That guy… Alec…. Alec Lightwood…." She muttered while hot tears ran down her cheeks. Just as Maia came around the hall looking her over before jogging down to where Jordan's head was indicating.

LPOV:

Luke turned the treadmill off and sighed in contentment at the feel of the looseness in his limps. He grabs the towel and wipes his face and neck off just as his phone rings.

'Who the hell is calling me on an off day?' Luke thought as he picked up his cell phone and answered it.

"This is Lucian."

"Luke it's Jordan. You need to get to school now. Clary's been hurt." Jordan yells into the phone and Luke hears another voice that he assumes is Maia.

"You and Maia's job was to protect her." 'They had one fucking job really….

"There was an incident and-"

"I'll be there," Luke said cutting off Jordan and ending the call.

Luke ran up to his room taking a quick shower before throwing on jeans and heading straight for the school.

Luke went into the office of the Institute in an angry fury. Not only were they trying to get the Lightwood imbecile but they want to suspend Clary too and have her received incompletes in all her classes. Her senior year just started yesterday and it's already going to shits.

"I'm looking for Principle Penhallow, I believe she is expecting me," Luke said in a commanding voice allowing his voice to ring out in the school's office.

"Go straight in Mr. Greymark." The secretary said not bothering to look up from her task.

Luke busted in the door and took in the scene around him. Clary was sitting on one side of the office with Jordan and Maia standing behind her. On the other side sat the Lightwoods. Robert and Maryse sat to the left followed by Alec and Isabelle.

"Mr. Greymark, nice of you to join us. The Lightwoods were just telling me the kinds of trouble Mrs. Clarissa here has been up to today." She looked towards Clary with a look of disapproval.

I don't like this woman at all. She seems like a greedy hypocrite.

Luke closes the office door and walks over to Clary taking a seat.

"Oh yeah? Please tell me what Clarissa did today." Luke asks raising a challenging eye.

"She started a fight this morning with Isabelle in the bathroom, she stabbed Alec here with a pencil when he was trying to introduce himself to her as well as kneed him in his genitals. I don't know where she thinks she is but we here at the Institute Academy will not accept this. I do not care how talented she is. She will be suspended and-"

"So Mrs. Penhallow did you ask Clary for her side of the story?" Luke asks taking off his glasses and cleaning the lens.

"No, she didn't," Jordan says handing Luke a stack of papers. "Once the Lightwood family came in she heard their side of the story and cut us off from saying anything. So basically because the Lightwood put hundred of thousands into this school their kids are free to rein whatever terror they want around here. Am I right? Principal Penhallow?" Jordan stands back smugly and crosses his arms across his chest.

"Of course not! Your speaking ill of the elders of the school. That will cost you a suspension as well Mr. Kyle." Principal Penhallow said adjusting her glasses. "Our school has laws for a reason. Our motto is, the law is hard but it's still the law."

"I'm glad you think so," Luke said flipping through the documents in his hands. "Because these photos say otherwise. This one-" he pauses to put a photo on the desk. "Shows Isabelle Lightwood holding a blade to Clary's neck. I thought weapons of any kind are punishable by expelling them. Right?"

"Mr. Greymark let's not get off subject here." Mr. Lightwood answers adjusting his coat jacket.

"Mr. Lightwood you heard the Principle. The law is hard but it is still the law." Luke smirks before posting another photo. "This one is my personal favorite. Alexander Lightwood's hands wrapped around Clarissa's neck and squeezing. Which counts as an assault which would mean Clarissa was defending herself. The school laws say assault is punishable by expulsion and charges filed against them. But yet I see no police here to arrest Alexander." Luke leaned back in his chair and crossed his feet at his ankles. "So now that we know what really happened. Shall we talk about the expoelling of these two and how Clarissa will not sue the school for not protecting her since that is a basic right for a student here at your school to expect you to protect them."

Checkmate assholes. Come and get me.

"Mr. Greymark!" Mr. Lightwood yelled out clutching his fist in anger. "My son was stabbed by that Redheaded bitch-"

"Now we are still on your school campus and we have to add verbal assault to the list of pending charges and wrongdoings on your campus Mrs. Penhallow? Wow. Your school will be ruined by the time I am done here."

"Mr. Lightwood hold your tongue!" Mrs. Penhallow said looking at him sternly. "The police has been notified and they are on their way. I will review the video from our campus camera and let you know of the findings." She stated trying to e diplomatic.

So fake promises to please me and not throw the Lightwoods under the bus at the same time. Good play. But I play the screw your game better.

"That's very…. Informative of you. However, I will like to sit here and wait until the police come and view the video as well. You know just to make sure that the Institute does not have an issue with unfair treatment, and a safety issue of its students." Luke smiled pleasantly but on the inside, he was smirking and playing her hand.

"Very well Mr. Greymark. We would like you to stay to make sure this situation here at the Institute is handled in a way you would like."

LPOV:

In the end, the gang walked out of the school incredible smugged. Not only was the Lightwoods arrested and taken out of the school in handcuffs. They were expelled and Clary was viewed as defending herself.

Luke drove everyone back to the mansion holding Clary's hand as he maneuvered through traffic an pull into the driveway.

"Can I…. Can I sleep with you together?" Clary whispers to Luke squeezing his hand tight.
