"In the Night."
Chapter 2 "Life Changing Decisions "
Luke POV
I watch Clary's car pull out of the drive way and head to school. I sighed and raked my hand through my hair and went to my bed room to get ready for work, I could feel the toll the full moon was taking on my body even though it wouldn't be dark for hours.
I looked at myself in the mirror and saw the gray hairs start showing in my beard, I started to laugh thinking about what Clary would say if she saw them. "do they have power walker for wolves?"
Some days clary would look at me in a way Jocelyn would and it would break my heart, especially knowing that she would never get the chance to meet her. I shook my thoughts away and pulled on my badge and holstered my gun, I grabbed the rest of my belongings and made my way to the door.
I locked up behind me and made my way to the station which was only three feet away from the apartment. I pushed open the door and smelled the familiar scent of my fellow brothers.
"Lucian we have to talk." Alaric said first thing as I walked to my office.
"Yeah what's going on?" I asked getting situated
"It's a full moon tonight and Shadowhunters patrols have doubled since Valentine became head of the Clave." Alaric said looking nervous and started tapping his foot onto the floor.
"There hasn't been that many patrols since the Uprising, what is going on in there?" I questioned. "Everyone needs to leave tonight before the full moon, I'm not taking the chance of one of them finding us here and killing us all." I raked my hands through my hair tugging out a few strands at the thought of Clary getting hurt or worse killed.
I looked up at Alaric to speak when Gretel came running in with tears in her eyes. "The Accords are broken." She said and fell to her knees crying, I rushed to her and grabbed her shoulders.
"What happened Gretel? Tell me!" Panic flooded through my body.
"The Seelie Queen and Camille both went to the institute to ambush the hunters, they broke the accords. Valentine sent out a warrant for all down worlders, no one is safe." She sniffed. "Not even Clary."
I lost it I stood up with Alaric by my side and ran out to the main lobby. " Everyone I need your attention!" I yelled making everyone stop what they were doing. "The accords are broken, no one is safe. Everyone take your families and go to the compound, do as procedure, don't cause to much attention go home pack a few bags and we all will meet at the compound. GO NOW!"
I ran back into my office and saw my phone on the desk lighting up. I clicked on it and saw Clary's picture show up on my missed calls; I picked up the phone and called her immediately.
~Clary POV~
After my little incident in the hall way I made my way to AP History where hopefully I could focus on the subject and instead of this feeling I keep getting. I always felt sick during a full moon but never like this. "Maybe I was starting to shift. But then I would've started the transformation by now." I thought and started to tap my pencil on my desk trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with me.
I could smell the smell of church incent from the hall, it started to get stronger and stronger it became intoxicating. My head began to hurt and my throat felt like it was about to closed shut, I looked at the door and saw the blonde hottie from the hall way walking in with his schedule in his hand.
I put my head down and started to rub my temples trying to at least release some tension, nothing was working. I looked up again to see the Blondie starring right at me and the teacher pointing at the empty desk next to me. "Oh please god no." I thought to myself as I gasped for air.
His scent came even stronger than before as he sat down next to me, I straightened myself and starred straight at the board ignoring him completely or at least trying to. I could his irregular heartbeat, telling me he was nervous about something, I just couldn't figure out what. He sat there playing it of cool of course, he started tapping his fingers against the desk soft at first but with my hearing everything is enhanced. I started to get irritated at the sound of his fingers and his heart beat, I looked down at my hand the was gripping the side of my desk, denting the metal.
I was about to break when I heard my phone start to buzz in my pocket, my perfect exit plan. I stood up abruptly and grabbed my stuff and walked out in the middle of the lecture, I could hear everyone's shock as I walked out.
I bursted into the hall way slamming the door behind me, I felt like I could finally breathe once I stepped out of the door. I picked my phone out of my pocket and answered it not even looking at the caller ID.
"Hello?" I answered and instantly heard the familiar voice of my beloved father.
"Clarissa, oh thank god. Listen to me I need you to leave school now." He said which took me by surprise.
"What? Dad is this a joke?" I asked laughing at him.
"Clarissa! Do you think I sound like I am joking? The Accords have been broken, Shadowhunters have warrants to kill all downworlders! You need to leave school now!" He yelled into the phone, I started my way to my locker to get my keys.
"I'm leaving now." I answered I heard him sigh with relief.
"Come to the station then we make our way to the compound. I love you little wolf." He said
"I love you—"I was cut off by the sound of someone calling my name down the hall way.
"Garroway!" I turned to see the blonde boy coming towards me, and instantly I couldn't breathe.
"Dad I… can't… breathe." I gasped out into the phone.
"Clary? Clarissa! Who is that you need to tell me?" He begged into the phone, the closer the boy got the better I could see him, I looked down at his wrist and saw a black marking that I could recognize anywhere. "Shadowhunter." Was all I said and my phone went off.
I started to make y self look busy while trying to breath; I grabbed my saddle bag and my keys and shut my locker. "Garroway, right? Hey are you alright you sort of just ran out of the class room once I sat down."
"Yeah I'm just not feeling good." I answered and started to feel dizzy.
"Oh well is there anything I can help you with, do you need help to your car?" he asked with a smile, I looked into his eyes and could feel his heart beating through the floor and up through my feet. He knew what I was and what has happened.
I didn't answer him; I just turned around and made my way towards the door. "Hey, was it something I said?" he said and placed a hand on my shoulder where I felt instant pain; I cried out and looked down at his hand where a silver ring laid.
I was scared I looked up at him; I could feel in his heart beat he didn't know what was going on. "Leave me alone." I answered and made my way towards the door.
I pushed it open to find a tall white haired boy standing in my way. "Excuse me. I need to get through." I answered.
"Well aren't you supposed to be in school little wolf, or do they not teach dogs tricks anymore?" At that I snapped.
"Leave me alone!" I snarled at the both of them, the one with white hair stepped closer, filling my nose with the intoxicating smell of incent. I gagged and felt my legs give out; I hit the ground like a bag of bricks, bouncing my head off the pavement.
"Didn't you hear baby Jace, the accords are broken." The white haired boy smiled while placing his foot on my throat. "We can kill her without getting in trouble for it."
"Jonathan stop she's not a werewolf, she's just a mundane." The boy called Jace said trying to get Jonathans boot off my throat.
I raked my fingers up his leg trying to get him off me, failing miserably I might I add. All I kept thinking was I needed to say goodbye to my dad, I couldn't die without saying I loved him. I jerked my body which only made him tighten his foot on my throat.
"No mundane can see me Jace, I have my glamour on." He said and pulled up his foot.
"Well then she must be a shadow hunter." Jace sighed and grabbed me picking me up to my feet. I stepped back a few feet and pulled out the knife in my bag. "Don't touch me or I swear to god I'll kill you both." I snarled at them. Jonathan held up his hands and started to laugh while Jace shook his head and stepped forward. I stepped back a rose the knife towards him. "I'm warning you."
He stepped again getting closer and I swung the knife slicing it through his cheek. "God damn it!" He cussed which made Jonathan laugh.
Jonathan came up faster than lightning behind me and grabbed my arms. "Let's test something out, give her a rune. If she's a wolf she'll die no problem, if she doesn't Valentine will want to know who she is and where she came from."
Jace sighed and pulled out his stick thing, I started to pull away jerking myself all over trying to break free but this guys grip was strong. Jace pulled on my wrist and place his stick thing on my flesh, he started moving the stick like he was drawing. I felt like my wrist was burning I started to kick my legs which hit his arm knocking the stick out of his hand. I looked down at my wrist and saw a tattoo, I looked down at it confused.
"A tattoo? Really you practically choked me so you could give me a tattoo?" I asked which apparently was funny because he started laughing. "do I amuse you or something?"
Jonathan looked at Jace who was looking at me. "You what this means?" Jon asked and Jace just nodded his head.
"Her life is about to change." I looked back at Jace who looked sorry, and then I looked down at my wrist.
Then everything went black…
