Once Sebastian had left the room. Jace came over to me and brought out a long stick from his back pocket. "Give me your arm" he said in a soft voice. Surprised I handed him my arm. He placed the stick thingy on my arm and started to draw. Magically my wounds started to heal and the pain in my legs disappeared. Bewildered I look up at him. "This is a stele, it has magical powers of a sort" he said in the same voice. "What's your deal" I asked
"What do you mean?" he asked back "well you act like an ass when Sabastian's around but once he leaves you kind and dear I say it nice" I say being very careful with what I say
"If you'r expecting some heartfelt backstory, chick flick moment coming up you will be very disappointed. Let's just say I will do what I need to when I need to in order to survive." Sensing that talking more would get me in trouble I just sat there while he wiped the makeup off my face.
"There now you look perfect" he said "we just have to send you up to Isabelle to have some nicer makeup put on" "Amen" I said trying to get him to smile. Surprising it worked and he cracked a small smile. "Come one, I'll take you to her" he said.
o.0.o.0.o
We walk for a bit in silence before I work up the nerve to ask. "Where are we".
"We are in Sebastian's mansion" he says simply
"I get that but where in the world"
"Everywhere and nowhere" he said
"Well that's not mysterious at all" I think "okay" I say
We go up several flights of stairs and so many long corridors that I begin to lose count. When we stop we are at a door covered in pink paint and sparkles. "Isabelle" Jace says knocking at the door "open up"
"Go away Jace" Isabelle replies "last time it took weeks to get the nail polish off my floor"
"Clary's come for a makeover and new clothes" he said in a voice kind of like the one me and Simon used at home to get the other one to hang out.
"Ugh fine but you can't come in" she said in a defeated voice. I walk in and am astounded at the colour. It was bright pink, sparkly and covered in clothes, perfume, make up and everything girly.
Jace stayed at the door obviously scared of the whip that Isabelle had in her hand. "I'll just leave you to it then" he said and then left closing the door. Isabelle set the whip on bed and came over to me.
"I can see Jace got rid of your 'wounds'" she said
"Yeah and some of the real ones too" I said
"hmm, sorry about that I saw the broadcast." She replied with sad eyes she sat me down at the vanity and started to do my makeup.
"You remind me of my friend back home, his names Alec and his father is my father's best friend." I say making conversation "he looks just like you same hair and bone structure."
"Alec?" she says with interest "Yeah, he is a good friend of mine." I say "he lives in the house next to the palace. He only lives with his dad because his mother and sister died when he was young around the age of 10." I look over at Isabelle and she looks ready to cry. I don't push her but instead ask "Why do you work for this asshole"
"Well when I was 8 my family and I were in a house fire, my brother and father both died that night and me and my mother where saved by Sebastian. Jace is the same. His mother died giving birth to him and he grew up with his father in the country until one night a bunch of men came into the house his father told him to hide in the basement and he did. He heard a scream of pain and he ran up the stairs. He hid behind the book case when the man shoved the blade into his father's chest. Just as quickly as they had come they left and Jace was found holding onto his father's body by Sebastian. He told him that his father was murdered on orders from the king and that the fire that destroyed my life was his fault too." She finished gravely "that's why we are here, to get revenge."
I thought about that for a while in silence. How had my father the same man who used to push me on the swing and shown me how to tie my shoes done this. Sebastian had to be lying there was no way. Could he have? This internal confect went on until I was interrupted by Isabelle saying "there now you're looking like a queen." This time when I looked in the mirror rather than seeing a maze of scars and blood I see a princesses, no a queen. I looked like my mother. "I'll go get Jace and he can take you to Sebastian." Isabelle said and I just nodded at her before looking at her saying "do I have to go, I'd much rather stay here"
"I'll go get Jace" she said with a kind of finality in her voice. "Okay" I said sadly. She went out the room and left me in the pink prison. When she returned she had Jace in tow. "If you brake anything while you are in here I will kill you" she was saying as she came into the room. "Fine, if you insist." He complained "Oh hi clary you look perfect, let's go" he said in a rush and pulled me out the room and down the hall. We didn't talk the whole way to the dining room and that was fine by me. I needed to get my walls up before talking to Sebastian and having to spend a meal with him. We arrive at the dining room and we are the first to arrive. "Sit down he will be here in a minuet" Jace announces and he goes over to stand next to the door. I think about sitting but decide agenised it and stay by my chair. The doors suddenly slam open and in walks Sebastian.
"Ahh Clarissa" he says cockily "Thank you for waiting. Please do sit" I sit down and wait for him to say something.
"I do hope your stay has been pleasant" he said
"Oh sure, I just love being tortured in front of my father for his obedience" I say suddenly mad.
"Watch your mouth" he said with dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Oh and why should I. Why should I listen to a little child that has been dealt a few bad cards in life? Well guess what so have I! My mother died 5 years ago and my brother died 15 years ago and I didn't have a little temper tantrum. So get over yourself and let me go home." I say in a rage.
He looked even scarier than he did when he was talking to my father. "Well today is your lucky day, little sister"
"What?" I say wondering if I'd misheard him. "You heard me, come give your big brother a hug." He said with a grin. "No, no, no. Jonathans dead you can't be him, you aren't him. You are a monster" I said with my voice shaking. "I am not a monster" he yelled lashing out at me. I dodged him and fell back onto the ground. He grabbed my head and said "I am not a monster, but you will do what I say when I say." He said quietly and shoved my head hard onto the ground. I fought for conscience but in the end the darkness won. And I drifted into the dark.
Hey guys. So that's this week's chapter.
I'm sorry if it sucks and I hope you guys keep reading I really appreciate it. I should have another chapter sooner than Friday but don't hate me if I don't.
If anyone has any ideas with what to do next I could use some help but I kind of know what I'm doing.
Thanks for reading Penpals31
