Isabella woke up with a start. 'Where am I?' she thought. She looked around at her surroundings. She was in a room with no windows and no light. There was a door but it looked old and locked. She was sitting on a bed and her left arm was chained to the wall. Someone opened the door. It was Jonathan Morgenstern holding something. ''Leave me alone!'' cried Isabella. ''I guess you don't want to eat.'' replied Jonathan. Isabella was about to refuse but her stomach rumbled.''Please, give me the food.'' she said. Jonathan smiled and handed her the plate and a fork. The plate wasn't filled with anything extravagant. It was some peas, and a glass of water.

She reached for the fork but the second she touched it, it burned her hand. ''Oww!'' she cried,''What's in that fork?'' ''Iron, pure, cold, iron.'' replied Jonathan. She reached for the peas and ate one. Pain erupted in her mouth. She screamed in pain. ''What's in those peas?!'' ''Salt.'' She reached for the cup of water and the second she drank it she threw up. ''Is that normal water?!'' He shook his head. ''Its holy you know why this stuff hurts you?'' he asked. She shook her head. He whispered in her ear. ''You're part faerie.'' She gasped. ''No...that's not possible.'' she whispered. ''Oh but it is. Have you ever touched cold iron before? Have you ever tasted salt? Do you drink holy water sometimes? Now, let me leave you to your thoughts, faerie.'' He picked up the plate, fork, and cup, and walked out the door.

'Part faerie? Is that why mom never lets me use the salt? Or I've never touched a pure piece of iron? And I've never been able to touch the holy water at churches? Because I'm part faerie? Does that mean I can't be a complete Shadowhunter? Will I be able to handle all of the runes?' These thoughts ran through her head. She curled up into a small ball and cried and didn't stop.
