Chapter 4 is here! I am very excited to give you guys more but bear with me, it might take a few days. I hope you have enjoyed my previous chapters and keep reviewing!
CHAPTER 4
Told in Jace's perspective
"Speech" 'Thoughts'
I was frozen. I felt like she had just been killed right before my eyes. Anger flared up inside of me, but I knew better than to go into that house.
"Jace, are you alright? Jace!" I finally snapped out of my thoughts. Izzy was kneeled next to me, a look of worry prominent in her eyes. "I know you're upset, but the best thing that we can do for her now would be to prepare to attack Jonathan," she said. I slowly got up. Simon looked shocked as well and Alec, well, I didn't even know. He was feeling a mixture of fear and… worry. I wondered if these feelings were toward me or Clary. Did he really care about her? I wasn't jealous, of course. Alec was in love with me. I found out when I first met Clary. She figured it out before I did. But then we met a warlock named Magnus Bane. He's now Alec's boyfriend. It calmed me a little to know that Alec might be a little worried about Clary too.
Suddenly, a blast of light shot up into the sky next to Alicante. I could see demons beginning to pour out of the light. I grabbed a knife from my belt and yelled, "Raziel!" And it lit up. "We need to protect Alicante as much as we can. I should've known that he would release them anyway, that sick bastard!" I shouted. Izzy grabbed her whip and Alec took out his bow. Simon, being a vampire, didn't need weapons. We started toward the demons, taking out as many as we could before they could get to Alicante. A few got by us, but there were enough shadowhunters in Alicante to take care of them. I looked over to the side just in time to see Jonathan sneak around the side of the house with a few demons. He was carrying a bundle of swords and spears. "This portal is a diversion! Jonathan went to the other side of the house to create another one!" I yelled to them. Simon came to join me at my side. "I'll come with you," he said. "There's no reason for Alec to go because you guys can feel each other." I nodded and we crept quietly to the house. "It would be best if we could catch him by surprise," I whispered.
"Wait, do you have the knife that Clary marked? The one with the Fire?" Asked Simon.
"Yes, I do"
"Good, you sneak up behind him and stab him. I'll distract him while you do." With that, Simon went to the other side of the house while I stayed and hid behind the opposite side. This was my one and only shot. I couldn't mess it up.
That's all I've got for today! Thank you to everyone who has read this so far and I hope there will be more of you! ~Scarlet
