I do not own Mortal Instruments. If I did Clary would be my art teacher.

Chapter 5: Not just another feeling

Homeroom had been uneventful and for the most part boring. Annie had got kicked out after making a comment that made Mr. Fisher's face turn red and made the class erupt in uncontrollable giggles. First period was the same Clary, Alec, and Jace all had Human Anatomy and it was boring, all the teacher did was assign them seats and told them what chapter to start on. They all had different classes second and third and didn't meet back up till lunch.

"I'd rather be out fighting demons." Jace complained once they'd found a table large enough for their group to sit.

" I don't know, I think high school is great!" Isabelle said opening a bag of Doritos.

"I'm with Jace on that one." Alec mumbled.

"Well were here until we find that greater demon, so we might as well try to have fun." Simion didn't eat anything he just sat there.

"THAT'S MY JUICE!" Antithesis yelled from across the cafeteria, drawing all kinds of stares to herself.

"That girl is crazy." Alec said shaking his head.

"I don't know, she seems sort of cool. If you like overdramatic people." Clary took a bite out of her pizza.

"Speaking of drama, does anyone else have it on their schedule?" Maia asked. The group pulled out their schedules and was surprised to see that they all had the class.

"This should be interesting." Simon said just as the bell for lunch to end rang. Clary sighed and picked up her tray of half eaten food and began walking to the trashcan.

"Clary." She turned at the sound of Jace's voice, and stopped long enough for him to catch up.

"Yes, Jace?" she asked. She was still a little mad at him for what he'd said earlier.

"I'm sorry okay. I've been acting like a jerk and I was really mean earlier Clary." Clary dumped her tray and proceeded to walk out of the Cafeteria with Jace right next to her.

"What else?" she asked, since Jace was apologizing she was going to milk it for every cent it was worth.

"I was being an ass, and I'm your boyfriend and I should treat you better. I was just really on edge this morning. I'm sorry. I love you." He grabbed her arm and pulled her to him.

"I promise I'll do better. I don't want to lose you Clary." He kissed her forehead and held her close. Clary held on to Jace and held back tears. After they'd returned from Idris things had gotten worse rather than better. They were always training and rarely had anytime to be together the way they wanted to. Everything was business-like and times like these pulled at Clary's heartstrings.

"Um, happy couple the bell's about to ring." Isabelle informed them as she walked out of the cafeteria into the hallway.

Antithesis sped down the hallway trying to make it to the auditorium for Drama. She already had detention and Saturday school and Mrs. McCarty didn't play about being late. She passed the new kids on her way to the auditorium, maneuvering around them and yelling a quick apology. She pushed the doors open and was surprised to see that Mrs. McCarty wasn't even there.

Antithesis sat down trying to catch her breath, she'd ran all the way from the gym just to get to the auditorium and the freakin teacher wasn't even there.

"She should try out for the track team." Simon joked, as he watched Antithesis disappear into the auditorium.

"I don't like her." Isabelle stated as they finally reached the door and filed in.

"Why?" Clary asked. She personally didn't see anything wrong with Annie, aside from her extremely extroverted personally.

"Something just seems wrong about her. " Isabelle shrugged. "But I could be wrong so don't really take it into consideration."

"You don't think she's the……………… BY THE ANGEL!" Alec suddenly stopped in his sentence and stared wide eyed at the stage. His heart should have been overjoyed but instead it threatened to jump out of his chest.

Clary followed his gaze and her mouth dropped.

"Who invited him?" Jace stared wide eyed.

"Wow, this day just got a lot more interesting." Isabelle raised an eyebrow.

"I agree." Simon shook his head fighting a laugh

"Alec isn't that you're boyfriend." Maia asked. The tall warlock was standing on the stage wearing tight black pants, combat boots, and a gold mesh vest. His hair was in glittery black spikes and he'd dulled down on the makeup only eyeliner.

"Yes, yes it is." Alec said mortified. A part of him was happy but another part was freaking out.

"Why is he here?!" Clary looked to Alec for an explanation. Alec responded with a confused WTF look.

"Welcome to Drama, I am Professor Bane. I'm sorry but you're original teacher Mrs. McCarty, somehow won the lottery and she left a rather detailed note on how glad she was and how much she detested you all but that is beside the point. I am your new teacher. Any questions?"

The auditorium remained silent.

"Good. So first off I would like everyone on the stage." The class stood up and obediently followed his command.

Jace shot Magnus a death glare as he walked by him. Magnus only smiled. After everyone had been seated, Magnus walked to the middle of the circle.

"Hm, Mrs. McCarty didn't really leave a lesson plan so I guess we'll just be winging it. Can someone tell me what you were working on before your teacher ran away?"

A petite blond raised her hand.

"We were studying for a stage direction test we had today."

The class erupted in groans, saying stuff like "Nice going nerd." And "Shut up."

"Test, I practically don't like test so I don't think we'll be taking any while I'm here."

The class erupted in cheers when he said this.

"But, you can't just sit here and do nothing. So I'm going to assign everybody a partner and that person will be your acting buddy for the rest of this semester." Magnus placed one perfectly manicured nail on his cheek.

"This is ridiculous.'' Jace mumbled as Magnus assigned Simon as his partner. Maia was Isabelle's, and Clary was Antithesis's. After Magnus had assigned everybody a partner Alec was the only left without anyone.

"What's your name?" Magnus asked Alec, a smile tugging at his lips.

"Alec Lightwood." He said not looking at Magnus.

"Well, Alec you have no partner. So I guess you're going to have to be the teacher's assistant." Magnus had his back turned to the class so they didn't see the gigantic grin on his face.

Jace smirked. Poor, Alec. Magnus turned around faced the class.

'Okay for this class period I want you to get to know you're partner, and tomorrow I want you to be able to perform a skit where you are that person. Okie dokie.''

Antithesis sat awkwardly next to Clary.

"So, what's up?'' Antithesis said trying to break the ice.

"It's Annie right." Clary asked.

"Yeah, you're umm Jace's girl right. I'm sorry I don't know your name." Antithesis said examining the girl. She was really pretty, especially the red hair.

"Yeah, my name is Clary."

"This is really awkward." Antithesis said getting straight to the point.

"Yeah it is, so um what do you like to do?" Clary asked trying to ease the tension

"Anything fun." Antithesis said.

"Oh I like to draw." Clary said. This wasn't going anywhere.

On the other side of the auditorium……………………..

"Listen, Simon I don't care about your obsession with World of Warcraft." Jace wanted to bang his head up against a wall.

"Magnus s----------------------------"

'I don't care what Magnus said. We're not here to get along. We're here to find the gd. Okay." Jace was getting sort of pissed. Magnus, That bastard had purposely did this. He'd made sure that Jace would be partnered with Simon, so he could have Alec all to himself.

"Jace you're such an ass. " Simon rolled his eyes.

Meanwhile on the stage……………………………..

"We're in school Magnus." Alec blushed furiously as Magnus hand snaked up his leg.

"So, don't you want me Alec." Magnus smiled seductively at him.

"M-M-Magnus."

"You're so cute when you blush." Magnus removed his hand and smiled. "Since this is a school, I guess we can continue this conversation at my place after school."

Somewhere in the auditorium………….

" And Skylar loves rock bands. Have you heard of Linkin Park? He loves them." Isabelle was talking endlessly about Skylar, her antisocial boyfriend. Maia wanted to tell her to shut up, but that would have been so she instead listened quietly nodding, and secretly watched Simon from the corner of her eye.

Back to Clary…………………….

Clary was trying. She really was, but Annie didn't seem to want to talk.

"Annie?" Clary said breaking the silence.

"Yeah."

"Did, I do something to make you not like me?" she asked.

"No, I'm just not a people person." Antithesis said. It was true. She really wasn't. yeah, she was loud and crazy, but that was only around people she knew. Yeah, she didn't care about what she said in public or around people, but still she wasn't actually talking to them.

"Me neither, so you have any brothers or sisters?" Clary asked, finding it hard to believe that Annie wasn't a people person.

"Only child." She answered.

"Me to, well I used to be. My mom's pregnant with twins." Clary smiled.

"I want a twin. It'd be fun to have someone who looked exactly like me. I'd make her go to my classes and pretend to be me, while I pretended to be her." Antithesis laughed

"That would be cool. "Clary said. Great she was finally making a breakthrough with Annie. Maybe having her as her partner wouldn't be that bad.

"The bells about to ring." Antithesis said looking at the clock on the wall. She was so ready for this dy to be over and all she had left now was Psychology with Mr. Willowstar.

"H-------------------------" the bell ringing cut off whatever Clary was about to say. Antithesis grabbed her bag and left.

Clary shook her head. Antithesis was really weird. Jace walked over looking utterly bored.

"Simon is so boring. How are you guys best friends?" he asked draping an arm across her shoulder.

"You just have to get to know him. " Clary looked over her shoulder at him. He was walking with Maia and Isabelle.

"Thanks, but no thanks."

"" A high pitch scream from around the corner sent the Shadowhunters sprinting pushing and shoving people in the way, trying to reach the source of the crime.

Antithesis was hyperventilating. The blood on her hands smelled coppery and made her sick to her stomach, but the worst part was where the blood was coming from. She didn't know she was screaming. She couldn't hear herself.

"HELP! PLEASE!"

Roger's body lay on the white marble floor, his blood staining it red. His throat was cut open and he had a huge gash across his stomach. His green eyes were open and completely glazed over.

"ROGER!" she knew it was useless he was gone, but he was her best friend. She shook his lifeless bleeding body. Not caring about the blood that was ruining her clothes.

"Annie, come on." Clary reached for the girl.

"ROGER!" she screamed once again, she couldn't believe he was dead. She'd just seen him during lunch. Now he was gone.

"Annie, come on." Antithesis, let Clary and another teacher help her up.

Was this what she had been dreading? Was this what that feeling she had had been warning her about? Was this the bad thing that was going to happen? She wanted to believe it was but the knot in her stomach informed her that this wasn't it. Something else worse was going to happen. She could feel it.

Hoped you liked this chapter… I'm working hard to ge you the next chapter tomorrow. I'm so busy with trying to learn the chain of command in JROTC that it's hard to focus on writing. By the Angel :0. I'm going to write as much as I can and promise I'll have a new chap before Tuesday. Kk bye.
