Clary pov

I had nightmares. A lot but I knew they weren't just nightmares. It was the truth. Jace was there to calm me down though. I'm grateful for my whole family. I get up and head to my room to get dressed for the day. I pull on gray jeans a black t shirt a crop top over it saying 'I need coffee' and my combat boots. I grab my phone and head down the stairs. I eat breakfast and head to the school. I go to my new art class and start working on my project. My phone starts ringing. I get up and leave the room to answer it.

"Clary I need you to go home right know." Jon yells over the phone.

"What why?" I ask.

"Valentine is here looking for you, I'm coming to get you Seb,Jace and Magnus are with me." Jon says I start to shake.

"Clary answer me where are you?" Jon's yelling over the phone.

"Advanced art." I managed to choke out. I hear there footsteps and soon enough Jace is picking me up and bringing me to his car. He drives me home. I can't stop shaking. I'm violently shaking. Jace picks me up and brings me to his room and lays me down. I curl into a ball trying to hide from the worlds cruel reality.

"Clary you'r going to be alright, your safe he can never get to you again." Jace is saying but I don't believe it.

"I don't want to go back to that hell hole. Don't let him take me Jace!" I yell at him and Jace hugs me to him.

"I won't let him take you." He whispers. I cry more because I know no matter what Valentine always gets what he wants. No matter what. I hear a pounding on the front door making me more aware than anything what is about to happen. I pick up my phone and call 911.

"Hello 911 speaking what is your emergency?" The woman asks me.

"Our father is here, he is trying to bring us back to his house where he abused us for many years..." I say trying to continue but I can't Jace grabs the phone and talks to her. Once I hear the sirens I feel a safe calm wash over me. I guess Jon and Seb are trying to make him shut up and are wondering why the cops are here. I get up with shaky legs. I walk down the stairs to see them arrest him.

"I WILL BE BACK CLARY, ALL OF YOU, YOU WILL NEVER GET AWAY!" Valentine screams at us and I shudder. Because it is true he will come back one day. All of us know it will happen. We may never be ready but he will come back and when that day comes I hope we will be okay enough to face him once and for all. Once we know they are gone we all let out a breath of relief. We don't have to be afraid of him for some time. JOn walks over to me and brings me into a hug.

"Wanna get a tattoo?" Jon asks and I nod my head. He laughs and we all go to the tattoo parlor. I walk in and Paul asks what I want and where.

"I want it on my wrist." I say pointing to my arm that has nothing on it.

"Are you sure you said you wanted to forever keep that arm off limits for tattoo's" Jace says and I nod my head yes.

"Jon can you write what I want?" I ask him and he nods and gets the paper.

"I have one life to live and I want true happiness." I say and Jon writes it down. I go into the back so Paul can do my tattoo.

"Why do you want to get that tattoo Clary you'v always been the quote girl not the screamo lyrics kinda girl." Paul asks me and I smile.

"I'm in a band with screamo parts but this is the one song that gets out there anger and has a meaning more than anything so that's why I need a reminder everyday to keep going. True happiness is my goal and to be totally okay. Hopefully one day I will reach those stupid goals. They are my dreams though and no one will ever take those away ever." I say and he nods to distracted by writing it to respond. Once he finishes I grin at him and he chuckles.

"Good luck with everything Clary." Paul says as I walk out to see everyone staring at me.

"Yes?" I ask and they all try to act like everything is normal."If you don't tell me I will beat it out of you guys." I say and Seb comes over to me. He wraps me in his arms and tightens his hold on me. I look at him worriedly. Jon walks over to me and looks me in the eye as Jace holds me on the other side just as tight as Seb.

"What is wrong with you guys?" I ask them and they all look down.

"Clary we had a sibiling." Jon says and I look at him weirdly.

"Of course we do it's always been us three." I say like they are the idiots.

"No Clary we had a younger sibiling." Jon says. "Our mother found out she was pregnant and that was one of the reasons..." He trails off as I start to struggle.

"Let me go right now."I say in a deathly calm voice.

"Clary we can't." Seb says and I turn around in his arms and bite . He loosens his grip on me and I try running. But Jace holds on tighter. I bite his hand and leave the tattoo parlor. I run down the street and turn the corner. I go a couple of more blocks and then go into the bar.
