Hi everyone! So i had one guess where I got the name from and that was... ICameOnlyForClace! I'm so glad to know I'm not the only Supernatural fan out there!
To SwanQueen4055: I really apreciate your comments! They kind of make this worth wile to hear that people enjoy this!
Anyway...I'm working on a new story for the Supernatural fans that will follow Castial when he was in purgatory after Dean and Benny left, so if your into that I think I will have the first chapter posted later today or tomorrow.
Clary opened her eyes and squinted at the bright blue light that greeted her as she regained consciousness. As her eyes adjusted she saw the familiar face of Magnus and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You have got to stop scaring me like this." Magnus retorted not looking up from his work on Clary's midsection. "But I have brought back worse, so you should be fine." The light faded from Magnus' fingers, and Clary saw another shadow looming over her.
Slowly Clary sat up, feeling much better after getting shredded by that board faced demon, and saw the shadow was Jace, a tired smile starting to spread across his face. He helped Clary to her feet, and she held him in a tight in embraced. She breathed him in- the smell of sweat and soap comforting Clary- and rested her head on Jace's shoulder.
"Lets go home." Jace said softly, and Clary could only nod. She turned and faced the car, which was parked near a small park, as Jace slipped his arm around her waist, and saw Magnus talking to two other people one who was a tall woman with brown hair that curled down past her shoulders and the other had a black and slightly silver hair, who had an oriental look to him and stood half a foot taller than the other women.
"Who are they?" Clary asked Jace looking towards the group by the car.
"That one," Jace replied pointing to the woman, "Is Tessa, my five greats grandmother and the other one is Jem, which is an even longer story than Tessa's. Like three books long of a story." Clary laughed, but stopped as she looked down at her shirt that was torn and bloody, unlike her healing skin underneath. "Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that they are trustworthy."
"Alright, where does Magnus fit into all of this?" Clary asked looking up at Jace, and his face ashen.
"He...He was the one that found you, with the help of Jem." Jace answered. "And he knows Tessa and Jem, apparently they go way back."
"Does this always have to happen?" Clary asked suddenly, then wished she didn't
"What?"
"This, Jonathan ruining everything all the time, I hate it." Clary shot back. "We can never let our guard down, and if we do...I just don't want to be taken advantaged of, especially by Jonathan."
"Your brother." Jace corrected. "He is your brother, Clary."
"Not by choice!"
"No one can chose family." Jace shot back, and Clary fell silent. Her eyes were still glaring at Jace when Magnus approached.
"Trouble in paradise?" Magnus asked, and Clary painfully tore her eyes from Jace and turned to Magnus. "Oh...anyway, we can't leave yet, but the london institute agreed to take us in for the time being, and you two" Magnus stated turning to Jace as well "Need to tell the Clave what Jonathan is planning when we get there."
"Fine." Jace retorted. "But you need to get Alec and Izzie here while I contact the pineapple-for-brains Clave."
"And why would I do that?" Magnus asked looking cocky as ever.
"Because of Alec." Jace replied.
"Magnus?" Alec picked up on the second ring and somewhere in the background Magnus could hear Isabel asking if they had Clary, but Magnus had no interest in talking about anything having to deal with the two lovebirds. He was more concerned on how much Jonathan knew about the clockwork army from his own past. When Cameil came back from his past that was one thing, but this...this was much worse.
"Yeah, were all ok." Magnus replied the sound of his voice sounding hollow and sad in Magnus' mind. "We got Clary back, but we have bigger issues and we are going to need help at the London institute."
"Were on our way, and Magnus?" Alec asked, concern obvious in his voice. "You can talk to me, about anything I promise."
"I know. See you soon."
Magnus had never told a bigger lie in his life, at least one never seemed to bare down on him as much as this one did. As much as he knew Alec wanted to be there for him, Magnus would never be able to tell him about everything that weighed in on his mind, and maybe that was for the best. After all, most people only live on life and Magnus had enough baggage to fill the titanic, ten times over.
