Full Summary:

Clary Fray is daughter of Valentine Morgenstern, the wicked and cruel father bent on making her life miserable. Ever since she was 5, he has abused and raped her. Clary's mother, Jocelyn, had gone missing when Clary was only 4 and a half. Her brother Jonathan, or Jon, had died in a car crash when she was 10. Clary is just about ready to give up, but then the mysterious Lightwoods show up at her school, and turn out to live right next door. Will Jace, Izzy, and Alec find out her secret? If so, will they help save the broken girl, or break her even more? I know, many stories are like this, but please give mine a try! All Human.

Clary's POV

It was confusing, Jon's story. Clary didn't get it. It made sense, but why?

FLASHBACK

"Get in the car, Jon. Izzy will take us to my house." Clary said casually. She noted how Jon's eyes darted to and fro in fear before he agreed. Izzy quickly drove them to Clary's house in silence.

Clary and Jon got out of Izzy's car, waving her goodbye before walking into the house. "Hey Clary, how was shopping with-" Jocelyn's question was cut off when she saw Jon. Jon and Jocelyn looked at eachother long and hard, confusing Clary to her limits. "It's not safe for you to be here, Jonathan." Jocelyn said at last, her voice slow and quiet.

"It isn't safe for Clary that either one of us are here. Do I see you packing your bags and ditching her? So neither should I. I need to protect Clary." Jon replied. "Mom, Jon, what's going on?" Clary asked quietly.

You could hear crickets it became so quiet. "I'll explain." Jon said after a couple moments. "You deserve to know. To the living room?" He motioned to the couch in the living room, where mom, Clary, and Jon walked over and sat down.

"Okay, explain to me what's going on. Tell me everything, or I swear I'll eat all the marshmallows in the cabnets." Clary threatened seriously.

The couch dipped with Jon's extra weight. "Clary, I had to fake my death to save you, just remember that while I tell you my story, okay?" Jon begged.

Nodding at his puppy-dog eyes, Clary listened to the story. About how Valentine was the leader of a group called the Circle, which consisted of highly trained assassins. Jocelyn had vanished because she needed to run away, she didn't like Valentine anymore. She saw the monster that he was.

Jocelyn would've brought Clary and Jon with her if she could, but Valentine would get suspicious and had to leave them behind. As for Jon, the car crash was real. He had learned that Valentine was sending his assassins after him because he had protected Clary from her abusive father for almost a week straight. Jon had let a friend borrow his bike and helmet, and his friend had died in the crash, not Jon. So Jon went into hiding.

But the Circle found out, through a simple blood test. Valentine sent his assassins after Jon, who ran and escaped every attempt. But when Valentine turned to Clary, Jon had to fight back. Apperently, Jocelyn was too. She had been fighting back for a long time, and taught Jon everything he needed to know. So they started killing off the Circle, protecting Clary from death and keeping Valentine at bay.

But then the Circle stopped coming after them, and Jocelyn vanished, again. So Jon went into hiding, and after a few years, learned about how bad Valentine was abusing Clary.

He then found out about how Valentine went to prison, how he escaped prison, how Valentine killed Sky and was currently after Clary etc. etc.

So in turn he decided that it was time and bought me a bunch of flowers and returned to Clary.

Clary was flabbergasted, and in tears. She launched to her feet and ran into her room, closing the door. "Valentine, I always knew you were a monster." Clary spat. Jon and Jocelyn came into Clary's room, and started helping her. She let them, but flinched whenever they touched her scars and such.

Jocelyn grabbed Clary's hand in hers, and gasped when her long sleeve went up. Clary never mentioned the cutting...

"Clary, are these new!?" Jocelyn cried, looking at the newest ones...

from this morning.

Clary nodded, crying agian. "I've been cutting since you left!" Clary sobbed. "And I will keep cutting until Valentine is out of my life!" She couldn't help it. Cutting was part of her nature now. "I started cutting even more when I thought Jon died. He was all I had left!" She cried, and Jocelyn and Jon hugged her.

"We're so sorry Clary." They both said over and over. They left soon, leaving Clary alone.

END OF FLASHBACK

Clary sat quietly, not even caring about her tear-streaked cheeks, before the door opened, revealing Jace.

Yup, I did that to you peeps.

As always, follow, favorite, and review!
