(Oh hai, anywho I got a request for Clace, so this chapter will have a bit of that. ;)
(FWI, the Mortal Instruments movie is being shot in Toronto! my home city! okay, so a friend of mine got some pictures, a guy with blond hair, in all black with some special effects tape on his belt (seraph blades) is obviously Jace, a really tiny, proabably eight-year-old red-head girl was there, and she could never be Clary, but i dunno, anywho, i saw the pictures and hell yeah! the movie is finally being filmed! more to come XD)
Chapter 11
Clary ran as fast as she could, but even though she was a Shadowhunter, Maia and her werewolf abilities was faster, and Clary arrived back at the clearing shortly after Maia to see that everyone was there.
"Clary! Where in the Angel's name were you?" Jace yelled, he looked worried and pissed.
"Long story short; Lerial's not the only one on the island, and they all have connections to Sebastian." Maia said quickly, Clary nodded.
There was a long pause.
"Fuck my life." Izzy spat, Alec's eyes darkened, and Magnus cursed. Jordan walked over to Maia and Simon looked murderous, but it was nothing compared to Jace's expression.
"I told you she was bad news: we need to leave, pronto." Jace said with a smirk. Clary rolled her eyes at Jace's cockiness at being right.
"I'll check if portaling is working." Magnus offered, Jace nodded.
"Everyone find something useful to do, me and Clary are going to scout around." Jace said, his voice and expression turning serious.
There were nods and murmurs and Jace glanced at Clary to get her to follow him.
"Uh, the place where they were is over there." Clary said when Jace had led her a fair distance away. She pointed towards the west. Jace turned, but before Clary could say anything, Jace had taken two large steps and pushed her up against one of the oddly-colored trees.
Clary blushed as Jace pressed every inch of his body to her and kissed her, hard, Clary squeaked slightly, but allowed herself to fall into the rhythm of their movements, her hands tangled in his hair, and his hands followed her curves. Their breathing intermingled when Jace broke apart from her lips.
"Damn I've been waiting to do that." Jace whispered. his amber eyes were darkened with an emotion Clary couldn't pinpoint.
"Oh my lord, get a room!" came a voice, Jace spun away from Clary to see Lerial standing there with a freaked-out face. Before Clary or Lerial could do anything, Jace pulled out a seraph blade and threw it, and it landed mere millimeters from Lerial's head and imbedded itself in a tree. Lerial froze, and Jace brought out another seraph blade.
Jace's eyes were wild. "You're going to tell me everything you know about Sebastian, or I will kill you, understand?" Jace growled, Lerial actually looked frightened.
"I don't know t-t-that much, Drakiel didn't tell me anything other than he wanted to use the island." Lerial said, turning her head away from the seraph blade to her right.
"Who's Drakiel?" Jace demanded.
"A friend of mine, he works as Sebastian's second-in-command. Can I go now?" Lerial asked, fear clouding her expression.
"No, I have the seraph blade, what is Sebastian planning?" Jace spat, Lerial looked at him, the fear leaving her eyes. She smiled, a sad smile.
"I don't know, he wants the island and I said no, my guess is that I can be expecting an attack any day now, wait, you don't know about them? Your powers?" Lerial said, sounding mystified. What powers? Clary thought, Jace's hesitation told Lerial everything she needed to know.
She sighed and looked up at Clary and Jace. "Look, as much as Sebastian's plans fascinate me, I don't want to be a part of them, he may be my brother, but I have no interest in working with him." Lerial said in explanation, but it was hardly an explanation, it sounded more like a riddle.
"First you say you're related to Jace, now you say Sebastian, why?" Clary asked, getting over the embarrassment of Lerial finding them.
"My mother was a human possessed by Lilith; my father was Azazel, happy?" Lerial said rudely, glaring at the couple.
"How are you related to me then?" Jace asked, not lowering his seraph blade or letting down his guard.
"My mother was human being possessed, the reason she could be possessed was because she was a child of Destiny, descended from the devil, there is a legend, 'All thou children born to Destiny's cradle of dire, thou shalt be marked by glowing eyes of fire' it says that any child with amber eyes is descended from the devil." Lerial explained, well, that one sounded less like a riddle, and more like something that was utterly insane.
"That's a bit, odd." Clary got out. Lerial nodded and folded her arms.
"Yeah, Jacob, one of my friends, is a warlock of Azazel, my half-brother, Sebastian is also my half-brother, through Lilith." Lerial murmured. She looked down and then looked up, Jace fingered the edge of his seraph blade.
"Swear you're telling the truth, swear on Lucifer." Jace snapped, glaring at Lerial, who just chuckled.
"A demon could easily break a vow under Lucifer, because it is not Lucifer who is our leader, Lucifer was the name our leader chose to be known by, 'light-bringer' that's what it means, our leader is Destiny, the sister of the Almighty Fate, and the empress of Hell." Lerial said, making eye-contact with Jace, who like Clary, was frozen in shock.
"So, Satan is a girl." Clary said after a pause of silence.
"Yup, and she's my grandmother, the woman who was my mom had a father, but all the files on her family said no mother, that was Destiny. She has a tendency to, what's the phrase? Sleep around." Lerial said dryly, Jace raised an eyebrow.
"You're coming with us, and don't you think of running." Jace warned, Lerial shrugged, as if she didn't care one way or the other.
"Well, you two are on the top of Sebastian's Most Wanted list, so I kinda have to stay, at least to teach you about your powers. Oh, and just so you know, when it comes to demons, they take pleasure in being a human's first time." Lerial said simply.
"What does that mean?" Clary burst out before Jace could say anything.
"It means you should get this conceited bastard to take your virginity so that if Sebastian captures you, he won't get any pleasure out of it." Lerial said, smirking, Jace just grinned and Clary felt a blush creep up to her cheeks.
"God, are you all like this? Destiny's children? So, jackass?" Clary asked, her annoyance coming out in words.
"I was going to say conceited, but that works too. We're the children of Hell, we know we've got the world in our hands." Lerial said, struggling to hold back a laugh.
(okay, I feel stupid asking this, but i've got twelve reviews, culd we possibly make it to twenty before chapter 12?)
