Jace's POV

"You know her?" He asked bewildered looking up at Maryse. "What happened to her? Is she going to survive?" Maryse asks "I don't know but I think so. She had a stab wound with demon poison in it but Magnus did his best to heal her. There were some complications but she's better then yesterday. Her fever has gone down." he whispered "How come you know her?" he added "I knew her parents they where good friends of mine and she looks like her mom a lot." Maryse answers "You knew her parents? Oh you mean..." Jace stopped when he realized what she meant "Her parents died her father..." she stops as Cecelia coughs and starts to slowly open her eyes, she can't seem to focus on anything she shoots up in bed eyes full of fear and falls back crying out in pain. He got up and gently pushed her down in the bed holding her arms. "Cecelia calm down, you got hurt. You're in the New york institute everything is going to be okay. Just try not to move too much." he says letting go off her hands. Cecelia looks at Maryse and does the least expected thing, she bursts out crying. First softly but then harder she is shaking as she sobs; Maryse hugs her while she cries. She tries to talk but after a few attempts stops and just cries. When she had calmed down Maryse asked "What are you doing here Cecelia? Did something happen to your uncle?" Cecelia shakes her head and says " He... he killed my mom, and when I found out he tried to kill me so I ran away. I didn't know where to go and then I thought of what you said to me, and I came here. I hope it's not a big problem?" there was a long silence, Jace looked at Cecelia, she looked so small and helpless. "Of course you can stay." Maryse finally said "Thank you" Cecelia whispers and she smiles a little. "Now try and get some sleep you need it." he said pushing her down gently. He didn't know why but he really cared about her. he smiled at her and she gives him an enchanting smile back before she starts to drift off. Maryse and Jace walked out of the room, He want to go check on Clary but Maryse stopped him saying "Come to the library with me please I want to talk to you." he followed her without saying a thing. "So I think I will have some explaining to do, considering Cecelia." Maryse said as soon as we entered the library, "I used to be good friends with her father until I entered the circle. He was one of the few people that couldn't stand Valentine. Robert killed him 16 years ago when we attacked the accords hall. Her mother died when she was 6, nobody knew how she died until now I guess." "But why would she want to live with the man that killed her father?" Jace asked he didn't get why she would do such a thing. "I don't know." Maryse admitted "but you shouldn't mention it before she tells you herself I don't know if she would be pleased that I told you what happend to her. She never really liked it when people saw her vulnerable side or felt sorry for her." A knock on the door got them from their thoughts, it was Isabelle. "Here you are Jace, Clary is asking for you." "Is she alright?" he answered already getting worried."Yes don't worry, she just wanted to talk to you or something." Isabelle answers looking uninterested for some odd reason.

Clary's pov

Clary lay in her bed with a sore body and a dry throat. She din't know what happened but she hadn't felt so bad in years. Then she remembered the dream, Cecelia and the lily. Quickly Clary looked at her wrist, the lily is still there but it doesn't hurt anymore. She looked up as the door opens, it's Jace. 'okay Clary just pretend you're fine. If not he will only get worried and you don't want to be stuck in this bed any longer' She mentally told herself. She slowly sits up as Jace makes his way to her bed he sits down and asks "How are you?" "I'm fine" she answers trying to hide the pain as she moves. Clary sees he isn't buying it. "Don't lie to me Clary, I'm not in the mood." Jace snaps 'he isn't in the mood? He insulted me and Simon, it's his fault I'm stuck in this bed' suddenly she's angry at him all over again. "You are not in the mood? I'm the one who is stuck in this stupid bed! If you wouldn't have insulted me or Simon this wouldn't have happened! I hope you realize this is your fault? And as soon as I can leave this bloody bed, I don't want to see your face ever again." She snaps at him. His eyes widen in shock, as the words she said sink in. He nods and as if in a daze he gets up and walks out of the room leaving Clary on her own tears running freely down her face. 'Wait why am I upset? He deserved it! Right? Maybe I shouldn't have been so hard on him he did go looking for me...' 'Why do I always mess everything up?' She's so lost in her thoughts she doesn't even hear the door open. Clary jumps slightly as hands wipe away her tears and then relaxes when she sees it's Izzy. She has a tray with food in her hands; she puts it on the night table and pulls me into a hug. "shh Clary don't worry, everything will be okay. Jace will come around and you will forgive him eventually even if you don't want to know. And you know how I know it?" Issabelle asks. Clary shakes her head "Because he is your brother and you love him even though he hurt you and you only met a few weeks ago. Trust me, I have the same thing with Alec and Max's most of the times they do something wrong or get me in trouble." "Thanks Izzy." Clary smiles before slowly eating the food Izzy brought her. Izzy smiled and left the room shortly after.

Cecelia's pov

First all She can see is darkness, then a face appears, my uncle. Suddenly I'm in the bright sunlight; She blinks against it being trapped in a cell for so long making her eyes hurt. Then she's running, running away, away from her home, her country, everything she ever had and knew. Her uncle chasing, her with a big sword in his hand, but she's too fast. She ran all the way to the border of Idris, where she got a Warlock friend to portal her to Germany. There she asked for the closest airport. Good thing that she spoke German. At the airport she quickly decided where to go, what Institute would take in a 16 year old orphan for longer than a few days? She might be a shadow hunter but still. Then she remembered the woman from New York, she said that she could always come there for help. She booked the first flight to New York. Luckily she didn't have to wait too long, she hates plains and panics if she has to wait very long at the airport. The flight is quit long and after a few terrifying hours she fell asleep asking the elder woman next to her to wake her up when they start the landing. When she gets to the Airport she counts her money, she has just enough to buy some food. Well that's going to be walking to the institute. It was getting dark and it's beginning to rain, she puts her hood up for some protection from the rain, She has absolutely no idea where the institute is and the runes she put on to help her find it aren't really helping. So it wasn't long before she found herself in a dark and deserted park. Suddenly she hears someone scream, she gets a seraph blade out and runs towards the screams and snarls. There on the floor is a girl, and surrounding her are two demons. Even though she's tired and can't fight her best she still manages to kill one demon before the other one hits her with it's talon. She barely feels it and finishes the demon before kneeling next to the unconscious girl. She sigh in relief when she feels a pulse and discovers the demons have only knocked her out and didn't hit or bite her. At least it was worth the blood she lost. She couldn't help always wanting to help other people. Her uncle always said it was her one fatal flaw, but she didn't agree with him. There was nothing wrong with helping people from time to time even if it meant getting hurt herself. She was a shadowhunter, protecting people was her job and destiny. Then she heared someone scream "Clary."

Her eyes shoot open, she's covered in cold sweat and her covers are a mess around her legs. At first Cecelia didn't know where she was, so she started to panic thinking she's back in the cell but then she sees light and beds. Suddenly she realizes she must be in the infirmary in the New York institute. Slowly she sits up, a wave of dizziness washing over her, Cecelia slowly breaths in and out until it goes away. She gets up and starts to wander around the institute, trying to find someone who can explain what happened. The thought of staying in bed and waiting for someone to find her never crossed her mind as she wasn't someone to worry about her injuries. She ends up in the kitchen, Two boys and a girl who look strangely familiar where sitting there happily chatting. They all looked up when she walked in, there facing turning to one of shock and then worry as another wave of dizziness washes over her and for a few seconds everything goes black. She feels someone get hold of her so she doesn't fall and gently pushes her down in a chair. There she stays with her eyes closed wanting this sick and dizzy feeling to go away as fast as possible.

Hope you liked it! Please Review and follow :D
