Hi everyone! I hope you like this chapter. Though its not as good as the other ones. I need a couple ideas for Life of Lies, if you've been reading it.

I haven't updated for ages because my parents took my computer for giving cheek.

You're probably not going to read this part though. But if you are i want to say thank you to all the people who have supported me all them way through this story. Usually i write the first chapter and give up. But you guys helped me to keep going on this story.

And i'm sorry to tell you that thwre is no Clace in this chapter. It's in the next one though.

So here is another chapter!


CHAPTER 10: NIGHTMARES

As Clary fainted in Jace's arms, pain tore through all of her limbs. She didn't know if she was screaming or not. She couldn't hear herself.

The pain started in the place where Sebastian had stabbed her.

It felt warm at first, but then the heat started to increase in temperature. As this happened, she tried to blot out the memories behind her closed eyelids. But they wouldn't go away.

She remembered Sebastian demanding those Runes from her. Remembered the punishments she got whenever she defied him...

Flashback:

"No!" Clary screamed at him.

"You sure about that?" Sebastian asked, his endless tunnel black eyes flashing with anger.

"Yes!" Clary snapped, her jaw set.

She was still tied the chair. Sebastian hadn't cut the ropes yet.

But he did now.

He took out the knife he had in his weapons belt, and with three hard yanks on the ropes, they fell to the ground.

Clary's first instinct was to run.

She shot out of the chair and ran for the door.

But before she could get there, Sebastian had grabbed her messy, red hair, and dragged her towards him.

She bit her lip hard, to prevent the screams at the tip of her tongue.

Little did she know that she'd be in here more often for the next couple days.

"You will learn what Valentine taught me, little sister!" Sebastian said, a twisted grin spreading across his face.

Clary wanted to smack it off his face. But instead she tried to guess what this room was for.

It finally clicked in her head what this room must be; a torture chamber.

Fear kicked in as he dragged her into the room. She kicked out at him, her anger and fear making her kicks stronger.

But it didn't seem to bother him.

He let go of her hair and grabbed her roughly by the shoulders, hauling her up without much effort.

As he lifted her, she saw the handcuffs on the wall.

She tried to pull away from him, but her wrist started to burn for some reason. And besides, his grip on her wrist was quite strong. He handcuffed her arms. Then he grabbed a knife and ripped the back of her shirt open.

"Wh-what are you going to do?" She asked, fighting to keep the shakiness out of her voice.

"What Valentine did to me whenever I disobeyed him. Whip you," he told her.

She glanced behind her, eyes wide.

Sebastian had a set of whips on the table, his hand trailing over them.

She watched as he picked one up. It was very thin, with a metallic black on one side, and silver mixed with gold on the other.

"In case your wondering, this is a very rare type of whip. Apparently you can only get it from the realm wher the demons come from. It's thin, but dangerous. It's demon ellectrum. It can scar you for life. No Iratze can heàl this for you," he told her, a sick grin on his face.

And then he whipped her.

She held back the screams that were building their way up her throat. She had to stay strong and endure the pain he was inflicting on her.

But after three or four more whippings, she finally lost consciousness.

End of Flashback.


So what do you think? I know it wasn't that long.

I'd like if you gave me some ideas for her nightmares. I hope you liked this chapter!

Please review!
