Clary's P.O.V

It has been about a week since I've told my parents about everything that has been happening.

I had taken them to my room and had shown them all my drawings, then told them about my dreams. They had listened and were very quiet with an occasional gasp, or wide eyes. After I had told them everything they told Jeff and I to leave. And they started talking in hushed voices, they seemed worried.

Since then they've not been talking about it. I think they are trying to make me feel better, but honestly it's making me feel worse. I just wish I knew what was happening.

Jocelyn's P.O.V

I thought we were done with all of this, they told us that when we took her memories we wouldn't have to deal with Shadowhunters anymore, I thought that we were safe.

I guess the universe thinks that is never going to happen.

After Clary had told us everything we got on the phone with Maryse immediately. She asked for the pictures of the rune, the boys and Isabelle. She got back to us and the rune Clary had drawn she had never seen it before. So she sent it to the Silent City, and told us to wait a week for results.

So that is what Luke and I were currently doing, sitting at the table with coffee waiting for the phone to ring.

Clary was currently upstairs with one of her friends (Rose I believe) and Jeff her boyfriend.

Luke took a sip of his coffee and read his newspaper he looked awfully relaxed, and I was jealous.

"Don't worry Jocelyn" He said, "Everything will be fine." He continued to read his newspaper as I glared. Without looking up he added,

"Don't look at me like that."

I immediately looked away. That was thing with Luke he was always the relaxed type who kept everything under control, in contrast to me who never thought things through, and acted rashly, who jumped into things to quickly. Luke was definitely the better more fun parent.

I rapped my knuckles on the hard wood of the table, then announced,

"That's it I'm calling her right now." And made a mad dash to the phone before Luke could stop me.

I dialed the Institutes number and waited before a person answered,

"Hello."

It sounded a lot like Maryse's but I knew better now that it was her daughter Isabelle's voice on the other end.

"Isabelle, is Maryse there?" I asked

"Yeah, but she's in a meeting right now, can you call back later."

"No, tell her I need to speak to her right now."

I heard Isabelle grumble a little bit on the other side of the phone, but I heard her leave. She was gone for about two minutes when a voice came back on,

"Jocelyn, I was meaning to call you." This time it was definitely Maryse's voice.

"Please just cut to the chase." I sighed,

"Well it's bad news for you, and good news for everyone else."

"Keep going."

Maryse sighed,

"The rune Clarissa drew has never been invented before."

I nodded my head, forgetting that she couldn't see me,

"How is that bad news?"

A pause,

"We, need Clarissa to tell us what it is, we need to give her back her memories."

Clary's P.O.V

I was on my bed reading Manga with Jeff leaning over my shoulder, and Rose reprimanding us about our choices in literature. When my father called us downstairs.

We rushed down the stairs to see my mother sitting down looking lost, and confused. My father on the other hand was standing up with one hand on the back of my mothers chair,

"Clary, your friends need to go home, we need to talk to you about something." He said a little harshly.

"Dad, what ever you ned to say, you can say it in front of my friends." I honestly just wanted them for a safety blanket just incase things got out of hand. My dad opened his mouth to protest but my mother stopped him.

"It doesn't matter Luke, they're going to find out one way or another."

My father looked a little shocked that she said that, but he nodded his head anyway.

"Clarissa." My mother started, "Have you ever heard of a Vampire?"

Rose answered the question for me,

"Of course she has, I made her watch all the Twilight movies with me." My mother stared at her with some confusion, when Rose the added, "Team Edward." She looked at the floor embarrassed at what she just said.

"Yeah, why is this relevant to what we're talking about." I thought for a couple seconds then added, "Wait, am I a Vampire that can walk in the sun?" I asked in horror.

She chuckled without humor,

"No, but we're getting to that." She then stood up and started walking towards her bedroom. I guess she expected us to follow so I took Jeff's hand and followed my parents to their bedroom.

I really didn't know what to expect, but I never expected this.

Hey all you lovely people,

I am so very sorry for the long wait, but I had a serious case of writers block, and rewrote this chapter about 5 times.

I am also sorry that this chapter is not very long, I promise for the next one to be longer, and faster hopefully (Crosses fingers).

I don't think I've talked to you (or whatever this is) since before Valentines day, so Happy Belated Valentines day! Hope you've all been wonderful and enjoy looking forward to speaking to you in the future.

Ciao,

Sarah
