Jace's pov

Jace screams running towards Clary, seraph blade blazing in his hand. "Get away from my sister!" he shouts at the unknown thing. It turns around and he sees it is a person, he raises one hand and Jace can see the voyance rune on the persons hand. "Don't worry I won't hurt her, I just saved her from a demon." The shadow hunter says very calm. "Is she hurt? I swear if you hurt her..." Jace says very angry "Now a little more respect would be nice considering I just saved your little sisters life." The shadow hunter was smaller than him and less muscular, he was wearing the hood of his to big sweater so you couldn't see his face. "What's wrong with her?" Jace asks softly kneeling next to Clary. She was unconscious and very pale. "She has a concussion probably minor and a fever. But the demons didn't cut her. I got there just in time." "Thank you" He whispered so softly it was barely audible.

"Jace, where are you?" I hear Isabelle shouting "Here in the clearing." I shout back. Clary coughs and her eyes open, slowly she focuses on my face and whispers "Jace?" "shh don't worry I'm here I'll get you help, everything is going to be fine" "My head hurts so much" she says softly. I see drops of sweat on her forehead, I put my hand on it she was burning.

Just then Alec and Izzy appear asking "What happened? Who are you?" "Clary got attacked by some demons and I saved her." the shadow hunter said still very calm "Who are you? Take your hood of so we can see your face." Alec demanded. With a sigh the shadow hunter took off the hood revealing a pretty young girls face, she had curly dark blond hair and green-blue eyes. "My name is Cecelia" she simply said "You're a girl." Jace said bewildered. "Yes do you have a problem with that?" Cecelia said raising her eyebrow, one of her eyes was swollen and purple. "What happened to your eye?" Isabelle asked "That's none of your business girl." Cecelia answered looking either angry or in pain, or maybe both?

They could have stayed fighting all night if Clary wouldn't have gone limp in Jace's arms once again. Cecelia was already next to her saying "We have to take her somewhere out of the rain she will only get worse like this, isn't there an institute close?" "Yes we live there, I'll carry her" Jace answers slowly lifting Clary in his arms.

It didn't take them long to get to the institute, there was no one home so they didn't waste any time explaining. Cecelia sent everyone out of clary's room. Jace just sat on the floor just outside her room with his head in his hands, he was mad at himself for everything he had said and done. He knew Clary wouldn't forgive him so easily and even though he deserved it, it hurt. But that didn't matter to him now. All he wanted was for Clary to be all right. If she wouldn't forgive him he would be able to live with that as long as she was okay.

Cecelia's pov

Cecelia sighed, she was good with healing runes but Clary's injury was harder to heal then she thought and she was staring to get very tired. Runes where tiring especially after killing 2 demons alone.

After what seemed like ages Cecelia finally walked out of the room, she was very tired and dizzy all she wanted to do was lay down. That bloody demon had caught her good. "Clary is asleep, she has a minor concussion and a high fever, the iratzes I gave her are part of why she has a fever so I wouldn't worry too much, she will be fine in a couple off days." she simply said before turning to walk away. "Thank you for your help." Jace muttered out. Isabelle who had just approached suddenly said "Cecelia you're bleeding." she looked down at her white top and sighed so much for sleep, it was no longer white but stained with blood. "I'm fine don't worry about it." she said turning ones again to move away. "You don't look fine to me." Alec said. "Here let me help you" Isabelle said getting out her stele, slowly she raised her top revealing an ugly looking wound. Izzy drew a quick iratze and finally she could go to her room. Cecelia may have said that she was fine but actually she felt horrible, but because she was stubborn like her parents she pretended everything was fine. Waves of nausea and dizziness kept washing over her clouding her vision with black dots. As soon as she entered her room she collapsed on the bed. Cecelia was good with healing runes but she can't do anything against Demon poison. She really ought to tell Jace, Isabelle or Alec but all she wanted to do was curl up and forget about the mess that was her life." 'I wonder if anyone would mourn my death, my uncle certainly wouldn't.' She thought when another wave of blackness washed over her, she decided to go and get help, she really didn't feel like dying today and somehow she knew her parents would be disappointed in her giving up on the life they had fought so hard for.

Slowly she got up grabbed her steal and started the long walk towards Clary's room; somehow she knew Jace would be there. Even though all she wanted to do was give up, she wouldn't give her uncle the satisfaction of ruining her life or her parents the shame of giving up. She just had time to knock and walk into the room when another wave off blackness started pulling her under, she faintly heard someone say her name before she was consumed by the blackness, pressing down in her from all angles making it feel like she was drowning. 'Please make it stop, I just want some peace and quite is that to much to ask for?' She thought, the last thing that came to mind was the face of her parents and the hopes of seeing them soom even if they where going to be very dissapointed in her, she didn't care at the moment, she was to weak and needed some support for once in her life. She could vaguely hear someone calling her name and shouting to someone else but that soon dissapeared as she fell into a very welcomed oblivion.
