Goddess of heros and time: Aw thank you! Magnus is indeed making an entrance soon! Next chapter I plan to introduce him! I'm not going to say anything about Clary meeting her mom yet ;) Top secret…for now!

(No ducks were hurt during the process of the chapter being wrote (You'll find out soon!))

Clary felt her head pounding. It felt like she was either struck by lightning or got hit by a train.

She then remembered her head hitting a door. She didn't see what happened after that but she was now able to hear voices.

"-didn't know she was behind it!" said an unfamiliar voice.

Clary struggled to open her eyes, and was trying to move herself into a sitting position. She heard someone chuckle.

"I'd run if I were you." Clary knew it was Alec.

She opened her eyes and saw a blonde angel staring ahead of him, looking guilty and confused. Clary leapt up and crashed into him without even thinking about it.

He lost his balance and fell down with her straddling his waist. She stared into his golden eyes before pulling back her fist and striking his jaw.

There was a satisfying crack as her fist connected with his jaw. He yelped and tried to defend himself from her oncoming fists.

Alec and Isabelle pried her off him after laughing at them. Clary had only punched him three times. One in the right jaw, his left arm and right eye. She hoped she left a mark.

After Alec and Isabelle pulled her at least five meters from Jace, Isabelle held onto Clary using all her strength and Alec went to help the blonde guy.

Now that he was standing, Clary could get a better look at him. He was tall, but not exactly six-foot. His hair was curly blonde, could possibly be described as gold. His eyes were also gold and looked like they were surrounded by long eyelashes. His face looked handsome aside from his eye twitching.

"Jace, this is Clary. Clary this is Jace." Alec introduced them, smirking.

"I would say it's nice to meet you, but since you hit me with a door…" Clary said glaring at him. He returned her glare.

"I would say it's a pleasure to meet you, but since you attacked me…"

"Serves you right!" Clary said trying to walk towards him, Isabelle pulled her back.

"No fighting!" Isabelle shouted.

"Isabelle. Clary has been here for less than ten minutes and she and Jace have already fought and she kicked his ass…I think we should let them continue. It might deflate Jace's ego." Alec said smirking at Jace.

"Some parabatai you are!" Jace said with the most betrayed expression possible.

"I agree with Alec. Clary could totally kick your ass!" Isabelle said.

"Excuse me! But I'm right here! I already know I can kick his ass!" Clary said, sounding bored.

"Want to put that to a test?" Jace challenged her.

"Anytime Goldie." She smirked.

"You're on, ginger." He mirrored her smirk.

"I think you will find my hair is red, not ginger. Does someone have a problem with telling colors apart?" He glared at her and was about to retort when Isabelle cut him off.

"I think I'll tell mom we're going to Taki's. We haven't had lunch," she winked at Clary. "And I doubt you had anything to eat yet." She then left to go find her mom.

Clary heard her say "Church" before the door swung shut. She was now left alone with Alec and Jace.

"So Clary, how is your New York experience going?" Alec asked. Clary smiled.

"Very welcoming." She replied sarcastically.

They stayed in the kitchen in awkward silence till Isabelle came back. Clary refused to look at Jace; he obviously didn't have a problem with staring at her.

TMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITMITM ITMITMITMITMITMITMITMI

As they walked to Taki's, Jace was walking beside Alec and behind Isabelle and Clary.

He was furious that Isabelle and Alec thought she could take him down. She had caught him by surprise and now they think she's better than him? Sure she's stronger then she seems, but there was no way that she could beat him!

"If you keep glaring, you're just going to get angrier." Alec whispered to him. Jace turned his glare to his parabatai.

"Do you really think she's a better fighter than me?" he said in a hushed whisper. Alec sighed.

"I've seen you both fight. You're a great fighter, but Clary knows more how to size up an opponent. Once when she was staying with us, I challenged her and she kicked my ass in ten seconds. She blocked all my attacks and used them against me. If you do fight her, be careful."

"Who trained her?"

"Her father and a few other people I think. She told us her father brought people who specialized in certain weapons to teach her. She never said much more after that."

Jace frowned. Clary was starting to sound both scary and lethal. What kind of weapons was she taught to use?

"How long has she been training?"

"I think her dad has trained her since she was three? But I don't think it was serious training till she was four."

"Three? Who trains their child that young?!" Jace asked, keeping his voice low. Alec never got the chance to reply as Clary whipped around, glaring at Jace.

"If you're going to ask questions about me, at least ask me in person instead of going behind my back!" She shouted.

Jace stared at her stunned. He didn't know how she heard them. Alec and he had whispered and she was in a conversation with Isabelle.

"Well?" Clary challenged.

"Um…What's your favorite color?" Clary raised an eyebrow before answering.

"turquoise." She said suspiciously.

"Favorite animal?"

"Owls."

"Your last name?" he asked hoping to finally find out. Isabelle and Alec turned to stare at him, and then looked at Clary.

Clary stared at him before looking behind her. Jace presumed she was looking at Isabelle, except she turned around with a smirk plastered on her face, and then ran past Isabelle.

Jace watched her run. She was fast, not as fast as him though. She was running towards a line of trees that Jace knew concealed a lake. You could just see it from here. Why was she running towards it?

They walked towards the trees to see what Clary was up to. Jace stayed by the trees as Isabelle and Alec walked closer to the lake. Jace was glaring at a group of ducks that was near the edge.

Isabelle and Alec looked back at him and started laughing. He didn't see what was so funny.

He turned around and came face to face with a duck. He screamed and started backing away. He could see Clary holding the duck and advancing towards him. He didn't realize how far he was backing up till he tripped on something and landed in water.

The water was freezing and now so was he. He looked back at Clary who was still holding the duck.

"Get that blood thirsty monster away from me!" he said standing up and shaking from the cold.

"But it's so cute!" Clary said smirking at him. He glared.

Clary laughed before walking towards the other ducks and releasing her captured one. Jace wanted revenge and knew exactly how to do it.

When Clary walked back to the group and turned her back on Jace, he grabbed her and carried her towards the lake. She didn't have time to fight as he flung both of them into the water.

It was very shallow water, so they were barely under water. Jace smirked at Clary who was now as drenched as him.

"What was that for?" she hissed. As she stood up, Jace could see that she was shaking from the cold.

"What was that for? Are you serious?" Jace said, incredulous. "You chased me with a demon from hell!"

"You mean a duck?"

"More like evil, demonic monster!"

"…a duck?"

"YES A DUCK!" he shouted causing many stares to be thrown their way.

Clary stared at him before falling back into the water, clutching her side as she laughed. Jace could hear laughter behind him. He turned and saw Isabelle and Alec bent over crying with laughter.

He grumbled as he walked out of the water. He wasn't going to be allowed into Taki's if he was sopping wet so he decided to go back to the institute.

He heard Clary call out for him to wait but ignored her. The girl had embarrassed him twice in less than an hour of meeting. He was not happy.

He was just about to pass through the trees when a small hand caught his and started pulling him. He looked and saw Clary leading him behind a tree.

"Clary, I am not making out with you. I don't tend to make out with girls that threaten people with evil creatures." He said, but he was too angry to put much heart into it. Clary rolled her eyes.

"Not in a million years would I even dream of going through that torture. I'm making a portal to the institute so we can get changed." She said dropping his hand and taking out her stele. He glared.

"Torture? Don't you mean-" he felt something hit his head before he fell into darkness.

Jonathan stared at his father. He didn't know whether to be angry for him giving Lilith the whip or glad to be away from Lilith who had the whip.

He felt uneasy as his father watched him. He never spoke first for fear of being punished.

He looked around the room. They were in the hallway of his old home. The last time he was here he had been turning into a monster. He wondered if Clarissa was here. Was the Lightwood girl with her?

"Jonathan, I have an important mission for you." He father said. No hello, no how are you, just straight down to business.

"Nice to see you too, father." He said sarcastically. He didn't see any threat now that Lilith had the whip.

"Don't think that just because Lilith has the whip means you can disrespect me." He father glared at him.

Jonathan bit back the urge to tell him that he never respected him. He wanted to get out of there alive. He wasn't sure why he was afraid to anger his father. Jonathan was faster and stronger, but he cringed at the thought of doing something to his father. Maybe he was afraid of Clarissa losing another family member…

"Sorry, father." He reluctantly said.

"Drop the attitude, Jonathan." He said his voice cold. "Anyways, as I was saying. I have a job for you."

"May I ask what the job is?"

"I've allowed Clarissa to go with the Lightwoods to New York." He silenced Jonathan with a glare when he was about to protest. "I did not do it willingly. I had no choice. She would become suspicious otherwise. Anyways, I want you to go to New York and keep an eye on her. I don't want Maryse or Robert converting her to being in league with downworlder supporters."

Jonathan was shocked. He was never in New York and now he had to spy on his baby sister? If it meant getting away from his father and Lilith then there was no question about it.

"When do I leave?"

"Now." His father answered motioning to something behind Jonathan. It was another portal. He didn't hesitate to step through.

He landed in an ally. Of all the places he could have been sent, he was sent to an ally that currently had two cats…never mind.

Jonathan left the ally in disgust. He had no idea where Clarissa was. He would have to stay hidden seen as she thought he was dead.

He looked across the busy road. There was a lake with people surrounding it. Some feeding ducks and others were attempting to skip stones.

Jonathan loved lakes, or anything with water. He found it very calming especially when he was angry.

He walked over to the lake without realizing. He wondered why he had been sent to this part of New York. Surly there was better places than an ally?

He walked to the edge of the lake that was unoccupied. He stared into the water at his reflection. He looked the same as usual.

His white hair went just below his chin, his black eyes still looked like bottomless pits to him and overall, he looked like his father. He resented that.

He broke from his thought when he heard splashes. He looked over to where the noise came from and saw two people in the shallow part of the lake.

One was a boy around his age with golden hair, a tan and marks all over his arms. He was clearly a shadowhunter. He saw another body near him. This one had red hair.

Jonathan ran to the nearest tree. If there was shadowhunters here, that meant Clarissa, was there also. He could now see Isabelle and Alec Lightwood. The red-head more than definitely, had to be Clarissa.

He could see that they were shouting, but he was too far to hear. He started walking from tree to tree, keeping out of sight till he was at least eight meters from Clarissa and the others. They were all focused on Clarissa mainly, that they didn't see him. He was sire he saw Clarissa's eyes move, but wasn't sure.

The blonde boy had a face of fury as he started walking towards the trees, but not towards Jonathan.

Jonathan glared when he saw his sister stand from the water wearing a hurt expression. She had to be freezing! He resisted the urge to give her his jacket.

He felt some anger as he watched her run towards the boy, grab him by the hand and led him towards the trees. The boy shot her an annoyed look, but Clarissa had a blank expression.

"Clary, I am not making out with you. I don't tend to make out with girls that threaten people with evil creatures." The boy said. Clarissa rolled her eyes. Jonathan glared at the boy.

How dare he say such a thing to his sister?!

"Not in a million years would I even dream of going through that torture. I'm making a portal to the institute so we can get changed." She said dropping his hand and taking out her stele.

Jonathan glared at the boy and found himself picking up a stone not realizing what he was doing till…

"Torture? Don't you mean-"Jonathan threw the stone at the boy's head before he made another disgusting remark to his sister.

Clarissa still hadn't seen him, but he knew he had to get away before she did catch him. He heard Isabelle and Alec shouting, but he didn't hear what they said.

He smiled, proud of himself. He wasn't letting that pathetic waste of space near his sister.

Okay, sorry if the Jonathan part made no sense…I wrote it and then planned to fix it but it just didn't work right…

Anyways what do you guys think? Please leave a review or PM me!

How excited are you guys that the movie is out this week! I'm going to be seeing it this Saturday! When are all you guys going to see it?

If you're from Ireland and are going to Athlone this Saturday I might meet you there! (Meant in the least stalker-ish way possible!) I don't like giving out personal information like my whereabouts, but I thought it would be interesting to know if I'm going to be in the same place as people who are reading my story! (Still meant as non-stalker-ish!)

Also if anyone has anymore book recommendations, I'm still adding to my list! :D

My recommendations are:

Evermore series by Allison Noël
