Hi guys! I'm really sorry I haven't uploaded sooner, my iPad stopped charging, and I've had band! Lots of band... So much marching band. Anyways, thanks for being patient(and now finding me and forcing me to upload) and here's your chapter! -Seraphanaklusmos
Clary woke to the sharp sound of someone pounding the living snot out of her bedroom door.
"Wha-?" She opened it, half in a yawn, to find Will Herondale standing there. "Will? What time is it? Has something happened to Jem?"
"Six o' clock am, and no, Jem is fine. I came to get you. We have to hurry, the sun is almost up!" He whispered.
"What, are we vampires now?" She rolled her eyes at him, but grabbed a cloak and followed him out of the Institute, and to a park. She assumed it was Hyde Park, judging by the signs that read the name. "What are we doing here?"
"Shh," Will put a finger to his lips, and sat, motioning for her to do the same. "Just watch."
She sat by him, and lay down on her back as he did, looking up at the sky. The sun had just started to rise, filling the sky with colors of orange, pink, purple, and dark blue.
"It's beautiful," she said, breathless and smiling.
"I come here a lot when I wake up, just to watch."
"I can see why." Clary looked over at him. They were close enough to kiss, but he kept his distance, of sorts.
He smiled and looked over at her. "C'mon, we still have a whole day ahead of us." He jumped to his feet and pulled Clary up with him.
She laughed and let herself be dragged out of the park. "What are we going to do?"
"Well, we have to train, we have to go to the river fowe cooling our feet off, we have to have a picnic, we have to train more, we have tons to do!" He smiled at her.
"Okay, then! We'd better get started!" Clary smiled back and pulled him by his wrist to the Institute.
"Keep your arms up!" Will demanded, as he hit her again with the long sword.
Clary grimaced, doing as he said. "I'm more of a dagger person."
Will smirked. "So am I."
"Well!" Clary feigned a left, and jabbed his right side, making him stumble.
"Ooh, good job, Fray!"
She bowed mockingly. "Thank you, Herondale."
"You know, you just might have a chance of being a useful Shadowhunter!"
"Gee, thanks!" Clary laughed and hung up her sword. "C'mon, let's go grab some food and have that picnic you mentioned! I'm starving!"
"Good, me too." Will hung up his sword and went to ask Brigit, The cook, to make them something and put it in a basket. Clary went to follow him but stopped as she ran into Gabriel Lightwood.
"Oh, sorry Gabriel!" Clary rushed her apology, hoping to go hurry after Will.
"It's okay, it was my fault. Listen- have you seen Cecily?"
Clary hid a smirk. She knew all to well Gabriel 'fancied' Cecily Herondale. "No I haven't. I would assume she is in her room or the weapons room."
"Oh... Are you hanging around with Will often?"
"Uh, not really. Just today, actually, he took me to see a sunrise."
"That's what I heard. You have to be careful, Clary. You seem like a nice girl, and Will isn't so nice."
Clary stared at him. "So? I'm not allowed to be friends with him?"
Gabriel rolled his eyes. "I don't think friendship is what he has in mind." He hid a smirk as Clary blushed.
"I'll thank you to stay out of it. I'm perfectly capable of handling myself, thank you very much."
"If you say so..."
"I do say so." Clary turned on her heel and to find Will, hoping to grab a snack before they went to the the park.
"Ready?"
"Yes, lets go," Will smiled at her, holding out his arm.
She took it, smiling back.
And thus went the next to weeks of her life, she fell into a pattern, getting up to watch the sunrise with Will, sparring with Will, going on picnics with Will, teaching Tessa Latin, going to the creek with Will, watching the sunset with Will, sneaking back into the Institute with Will... She liked this life. She could almost forget about her life in 2007, her friends, her family, Jace... All of it.
But others had different plans.
Will tossed and turned in his bed, his head filled with nightmares.
He saw Clary. Clary, stabbing a Shadowhunter with white hair. Clary, commanding the angel Raziel. Clary, sitting with a boy with white hair-the son of the man she stabbed?- as he said "Whatever you wish, Clarissa, you have a dark heart." Clary, holding a vampire hostage. Clary, throwing a knife into the side of a werewolf. Clary, pulling the Mortal Cup out of a card. Clary, holding an archangels' sword, stabbing a boy with golden hair.
Clary, talking to Mortmain, saying "I'll do it. I'll be your spy."
Will woke with a start as Cecily shouted through his door. "Get up, William or you'll miss breakfast!"
Will through on some clothes and ran down stairs.
"Hello!" Clary smiled at him, but it dampened when she saw his expression. "Everything oka-"
She was cut short by Will shoving her against the wall and pushing her up it by her throat.
"William!" Charlotte shouted, surprised as everyone else, all staring in shock.
"Will, what are you doing?!" Jem demanded.
But Will only had eyes and ears for one person. "Clarissa Fray- if that's even your real name- you're working for Mortmain. You're his spy, aren't you?"
Dun dun duhhhhh! Hope you guys liked it! So I decided to leave you guessing. Who sent Will those dreams? Is Clary as spy, without even realizing it? How will everyone react to Will's outburst? How will Clary?
So thank you for reading! And don't forget to review, favorite, and follow! Thanks!
Looking better in black,
Yours truly,
