Chapter 8- The Curse of the Hygienic Killers

Moments before…

"Oh my freaking god" Magnus said excitedly and jumped up. "I have to get Jace." He said and ran to Alec's room, where Alec was sitting at his desk writing. "Alec, Where's Jace?" He asked trying to catch his breath.

"I'm sorry Church did you hear something?" Alec asked the cat who was lying on his bed. "Me neither. Hmm, must have been the wind or something" he said and went back to writing.

"Look, Alec this is very childish of you, I don't know what your problem is but your best friend is in danger right now." Magnus said. Alec got up and looked depressed.

"Magnus, I'm leaving the institute, its time for me to move on with my life. I can't just stay here and be ignored forever. I'm sorry, I have learned that you never know what you got until it's gone. So maybe if I leave you and the rest of the people who live here you will notice me for once. Now, if you will excuse me, I have a train to catch. Good bye." He said, grabbed his bag and left the institute. Magnus was not expecting that. He almost started to cry then caught himself when he remembered what he was supposed to be doing. Then he remembered Isabelle telling him about Dr. Mocha at 3 o clock. He knew where that was from past experiences. When he excited the institute the sun was very bright, he hadn't been outside in so long. Instead of catching a cab Magnus Bane ran so fast that you almost couldn't see him. He needed to cure Jace, and he needed to do it quickly.

"DRIVE FASTER!! DID YOU'RE GRANDMA TEACH YOU HOW TO DRIVE?!" Jace screamed when the Taxi driver was going 40 miles on a 35. Clary elbowed him and he shut up. "Sorry, I have anger management problems, and could you turn down the air, it's making my hair all frizzy. I don't like that."

"You don't like a lot of things Jace" Clary said sounding annoyed. They were quiet for a few seconds and then saw a black dot and then a BANG! They all flew forward. "WHAT THE HELL! I TOLD YOU NOT TO GO THAT FAST!" Jace screamed at the taxi driver.

"Shut up Jace, what was that?" Clary asked nervously. And then the figure stood up, eyes wide opened Clary screamed. It was Magnus Bane he stood up and had blood all over his face. "Oh my gosh Magnus?!" She yelled and got out of the cab. The cab driver was very confused. "Are you ok Mag? What are you doing out here?" She asked.

"No I actually feel like crap right now, thanks for asking though. Excuse me but Mr. Cab driver I think you were going a little too fast." Magnus said. "I came for you Jace, I know what you did. Now lets go back we need to have a discussion of this situation." He said and they went back to the institute in the taxi.

The institute was quiet, since Isabelle was out shopping and Valentine was hardly ever seen in the first place. They hurried and ran up to Magnus's stylish room. After he moved in he completely re decorated his room into a warlock room. Weird, awkward, and freaky at the same time. He had lots of books and potions on the wall. He had maroon curtains and floor too, and a big round table of course. There was a side of the room that attracted Jace; it was a shelf with a trophy that he always wondered about. He walked over to it while Magnus and Clary were talking and picked it up. That did not make Magnus happy, he ran over. "Hey, hey, put that down keep your hands off my High Warlock trophy!" He said swiping it out of his hands and placing it back on the shelf "that's my baby, no one touches him." He said and his eyes looked evil. Jace held up his hands surrendering.

"Now Jace, do you realize what you got yourself into?" Magnus asked pacing around.

"A pickle?" Jace asked.

"No, Jonathan, you are not in a pickle, though I sometimes wish you were so I could eat you up…. Ok anyway, do you know what the purple stuff you drank was?" Magnus asked trying to change the subject. Jace shook his head no.

"I knew what it was a minute ago but now I forget." He said.

"This is not good not good not good not good!!!!!" Magnus said and started rubbing his temples. "That purple stuff was hypnotizing love potion." Magnus said trying to be calm. Clary's and Jace's eyes went really wide. "Don't open your mouths until I say so, it wasn't just an ordinary HLP, I made it myself. It's for gay people Jace, That's why it only hypnotizes males. You must be very careful with this potion; if a person who is not gay drinks this they will slowly lose memory of their old life and turn into a completely different person. This in your case is a very unpleasant one. There is only one way to cure this potion, and only one person has it, my partner in inventing HLP, Raul Pinv.

"And where do we find this Raul Pinv?" Clary asked. There was moment of dramatic silence.

"Hair City." Magnus said.

"Hair City?" Clary asked

Magnus nodded. "Hair City."

"Hmm, Hair City, do the people have nice hair there or something?" Jace asked totally not paying attention.

"Depends on your taste of hair. I think you'd fit in very nice. They are very hygienic there and dress very nicely. Even though they look nice from the outside, on the inside they are little rascals that can kill you in a pull of your hair." Magnus said. Jace froze and couldn't move. "They are very obedient and follow every thing Raul Sais to them, that's why I think I'm going to do the talking." He said "Now we have no time to lose we need to go there now."

"How do we get there?" Clary asked.

"Oh that's simple" Magnus said and pointed to a large aluminated sign that said "This way to Hair City" Right in the middle of his room. All three of them got up and were on there way to see Raul Binv in attempt to cure the curse of the Hypnotizing Love Potion of the Gay.
