Milton woke up in a bed in a hospital with Mary leaning over him.''Finally, you've woken up! You've been asleep for nearly a week. It's crazy.'' Milton grinned. ''Crazy...no that's not crazy. I'll tell you what's crazy. That dress you're wearing.'' Mary blushed. She was wearing a really tight dress with a bunch of dogs, cats, and other animals. ''Can you stop joking around? I mean you aren't the only one stuck in here. Jeremiah has a really bad concussion and has lost a pint of blood. The twins are worried sick. Bella's still missing and we have no idea where she is. If both Jeremiah and Isabella die, the twins are on their own. Sure, they have us, but I'm 12 and you're 15. And now that you're well enough, you can be inquired by the Inquisitor.'' Milton frowned. He didn't exactly want to have to deal with the Mortal Sword, but he knew he had no choice at all.
The next day, a meeting was called and everyone came. The inquisitor, the consul, and the entire clave showed up. Even people from the other institutes and conclaves came. Milton, Mary, and the twins all stood next to each other waiting to be questioned. The consul, Jia Penhallow, stood and spoke,''Will the oldest survivor from the attack come forward?'' Milton gulped as he walked towards the middle of the room. Robert Lightwood, the inquisitor, handed Milton the Mortal Sword.''Hello,'' he said,''Are you the oldest survivor of the attack?'' Milton shook his head. ''No, sir. The oldest survivor is Jeremiah Fairfox, but he's really injured and can't be here.'' Jia Penhallow nodded and said,''Ok. Tell us everything that happened.'' Milton sighed.
''Ok, so I was in my room practicing using my daggers and I heard the institute doorbell ring. I opened my door to see who it was and Jeremiah opened the institute door. There were five people. Four endarkened warriors and Jonathan Morgenstern.'' Milton gasped for breath. The Mortal Sword was very painful indeed. He continued. ''They grabbed Jeremiah and knocked him out. I ran to the library to warn everyone. Mary set up a portal, then, Dylan and Toran went through it. After that, Mary went through. And just as Isabella was about to go through, the doors burst open. I hid but Isabella stayed put. They grabbed her and tried to turn her to an endarkened warrior but the second she drained the cup, she was knocked out. Then, her mother said she was part fey. They grabbed Isabella and left the institute. I ran through the portal and came here.'' Milton took a deep breath. He was gasping for air as if he was drowning. ''Thank you for your candor. You may go back now.'' said Jia,''Will the next oldest child come forth?'' Mary was about to step forward, but Milton yelled,''Stop! You already asked me. The sword hurts to much for anyone else to bare, especially my younger sister.'' Jia frowned. ''We need to ask everyone their version of the story so we can see if anyone is lying.'' ''So now I'm lying?!''
Milton was enraged. He stormed out of the room and sat on a bench. Right away, a boy with golden hair and eyes came.''That was the worst blow-up I've seen so far.''he said,''And I've seen bad. You should have seen the group of kids from the Los Angeles Institute. That girl, Emma, nearly lost it.'' Milton stared at him. 'Did I cause a blow-up? Wow...' ''What do you want Jonathan Lightwood?'' He smiled. ''So you've heard of me?'' Milton smirked. ''Oh haven't we all? The great Jonathan Lightwood. Demon slayer, amazing shadowhunter, and heroic savior.'' ''That's mostly right, but you forgot my best traits. Handsome, sexy, smart, and...'' Suddenly, a boy with brown hair and brown eyes came in with a girl black hair and dark brown eyes. ''And a real jerk!'' piped up the boy. ''Shut up vampire. Isabelle, control your boyfriend.'' The girl, Isabelle, smirked. ''Ok Simon. Be a good little vampire and sit.'' ''I'm not a dog Isabelle.'' A red-headed girl with green eyes and a boy with black hair and blue eyes came running. ''Have you guys seen Magnus lately?'' the boy asked. ''Or Luke and my mom?''asked the girl. ''Clary, Alec, you guys are sure you haven't seen them?'' asked Jace. ''Yup, we last saw them them going to the dinner party.'' replied Alec. ''Listen, I don't know where they are. How about we all look together?'' suggested Simon. Everyone nodded and ran off, leaving Milton alone in the hallway. Soon he saw his Mary and the twins come in shivering. ''They used the sword on us.'' said Dylan. ''It hurt so much...'' cried Toran. Mary nodded. He told the clave not to use the sword on them. And now he was mad.
How was that? I tried to make it a bit longer since my last one was SOOO short. Thx for reading and I hope you are enjoying it.
