Bella started to pack her bags immediately. She was getting out of Forks! Maybe a new place like this would wipe the Cullens out of her mind! Though it sounded like the people there were of Magical possession as well. This is going to be good, fun! Bella tried to convince herself. You're going to meet to the two kids that need you, even though Charlie avoided them all together...

"Mom?" Bella asked as her mother answered her cell. "What's wrong darling?" Renne cooed. "I know. I know I'm adopted, and Dad's taking me to Brooklyn. But I want to know why he won't tell me who the two children- the red headed girl and the golden child- in my dream are," Bella explained. Renne was silent was a very long time. It was not like Renne, to be silent, but now, she was.

"Honey, first you need to understand that I love you like you are my own and that will never change. I have watched you grow up, and sending you off the the Institute breaks my heart... but it is okay. As caught up on Downworld gossip as I am, I would those two are the children of Valentine. Your brother and sister. Your father Valentine... he is a very evil man. And he doesn't exactly know who your mother is. But he told us you reminded him of a girl he knew. Anyway once you were at about the age of 5, he came to realize that you had a certain fondness for Downworlders. That would not be excepted. So he erased you memory... and gave you to the Lightwoods. I think you can figure the rest of from there."

Bella was shocked, stunned. She had a little brother and a little sister. Which she thought was awfully strange considering they were all a year apart... "Bella, are you still there?" her mom asked lightly. "Uh, yeah. I gotta go, Renne... I'll talk to you later," Bella said quickly. Immediately she laid down to take a nap. If she could find the two children in her sleep and tell them who she was and that she was coming, that would send her conscious at ease.

"Hello?" Bella called out desperately. The little girl showed up alone in the dream. "You can talk in your dreams? We've been begging for help and all this time you've been able to respond?" she questioned. "Look, I'm sorry. I thought it was a dream! But I know who you are now- well, I don't know you're name, but- and I'm coming to help. I'm coming to the Institute," Bella apologized.
"Oh my gosh! Really! That's amazing! I don't know who you are either. Would you mind enlightening me?"
Bella laughed at her little sister, "I'm Bella, and I live in Washington. I'm kind of your older sister. I'm a daughter of Valentine." The girl froze, "You're kidding, right? No, you must not be... I'm Clary. That boy was Jace, and he's our brother. Though he's not here with us right now because he is not asleep."

Bella woke up. "CHARLIE! I'm ready to go now!" she called out. He loaded all of her clothes into the truck, only letting her take things like a toothbrush, hairbrush, shoes, and a few valuables.

On the plane, Bella fell asleep once more. She thought she'd be able to see Clary or meet Jace officially, but she didn't. Instead she dreamed of him, something she had not done in so long.

"Bella, you'll be safe there," Edward told her. Something her dad must of said wore off onto her because she spat, "Don't talk to me, you filthy Downworlder. I could have happily grown up with my own father, if I didn't have a soft spot for scum like you. You left me, Edward, and you best stick to your promise to leave me alone."

When she woke up she regretted speaking to her love like that. But it was true. Something inside Bella wanted to grow up with "Valentine", and be evil with him. She knew it was a very wrong feeling, but she wanted it so bad. it sounded like her siblings didn't like him all that much, and she would stick with Jace and Clary to the end. But she wanted a father now.

Once landing, she realized it was maybe about 4. Waiting at for her were two siblings, neither of which her own. The girl was beautiful, she had black hair and dark eyes. Her skin was very pale, like Bella's, and she was very tall. She was slender and beautiful. She looked to be about 16, the same as Clary. The boy was no doubt her brother, and probably about Bella's age. He had the same dark hair as his sister but his eyes were bright blue. He really was quite attractive...

Bella didn't know it was them who was there to pick her up. However, the two soon realized she was staring at them. The girl walked up to her and whispered, "You can see us?" Her voice was beautiful, and sweet. "Yes," Bella replied breathlessly. The boy smiled at her, "Nice to me you, Bella. This is Isabelle-you can call her Izzy, and I am Alec. So how do you know Clary and Jace?" So Clary hadn't told Alec and Izzy that she was related to them!

"Well, funny story. They're kinda my siblings. My father is Valentine."

She thought they might laugh about how ironic that was, but they froze. She remembered how Valentine was evil, and hated amongst them. "Let's go, shall we?" Alec said. Bella slightly nodded as he ushered her to down the isle. He made Bella get into the limo waiting for them, and put her few bags into the trunk. Once all three of them were inside, Isabelle said with a laugh, "I might warn you, Bella. Your brother Jace is somewhat of an ass."

Bella did not find that funny at all. However she forced a smile and a laugh. "Do you mind telling me what's going on?" Bella whispered. Alec and Isabelle each looked appalled. "What do you mean?" Alec asked softly. "I mean, what are you? We, I guess. All I know about is downworlders, and that we are not downworlders. Do you mind explaining what we are?"

"We are Shadowhunter, Nephilim. Half angel, half man. We fight to restore peace in hell, so to speak. Be kill demons, and the occasional downworlder when they've been naughty. Look, calling you a mundane would be a mistake. You're obviously not human, being a daughter of Valentine. But you are not trained, so you might as well be one. And how do you know about downworlders?"

Bella sighed. Did she tell them her whole story about Edward, the vampire? "I- I guess you could say I knew one," Bella replied. Trying not to cry. She would not cry in front of these people. Isabelle put her arm around her, and off sensation considering the girl was younger. "Bella, tell us about it," she almost demanded.

"I guess you could say I dated a vampire. I loved him with all my heart... And his adopted siblings, the other of his coven, were my best friends. But recently... they just left me," Bella said, feeling her eyes dampen. Alec looked at her with pity. But the car lurched to a stop, and they were in front of a big building. "The Institute?" Bella asked. Isabelle nodded. As Bella looked out the window, she saw Clary waiting out side with Jace. Bella opened the car door forcefully and ran to Clary.

Clary smiled at her, "We've been waiting for you. It's nice to meet you, sis. I trust you met the Izzy and Alec?" Bella nodded. Jace looked at her ruefully and Bella glared at him, "You have a problem?" Jace looked at her appalled and for a minute, so did Clary. Jace was about to say something back, probably something sarcastic, when Isabelle patted her back, "Good job. Jace needs to be yelled at every once and a while."

Alec grabbed Bella's hand, making both of them blush, and tugged on it. "You should probably meet our parents," Alec told her. "But make sure you don't address them as Mr. and Mrs. Lightwood, they'll just correct you." Wait, what? Izzy and Alec were the Lightwoods' children? Bella gulped and nodded.
