Chpt. 2 I'm Back…
~two years later~time gap~
"Clary!" Aaron whined. "Come on out! I wanna see you, everybody does before you go back!" Clary laughed at the dark haired boy and opened her door. She now had gotten stronger and quite a bit taller but, she wasn't the weak mundane that was there before. She had gotten black and blood red highlights in her curly light red hair. "Well Jace," she thought. "You see what I've become now, eh?" She hugged the boy for the last time. "I promise I will visit all of you, I hear New York gets snow so I will be here to keep dry. Texas is so much fun! There are so many attractions here like Six Flags and Schlitterbahn water park. And the weather is always nice in winter and is not usually too cold." She gave the family of the Texas Institute a big hug before she jumped through the portal to see what New York had in store for her.

She landed in front of the gates of the Institute, which had been her original home two long years ago. She smirked at the thought of Jace seeing her now all dressed up and her hair done in a beautiful way that complemented her emerald green eyes and her tan skin would make him stare. She spoke to the Angel which guarded the door. She spoke only of her desire and stepped in. She saw Church laying on his stomach, carefully watching her. She walked over to him and pet him and then asked, "Church? Where are the others?" The sleek cat yawned but got up and led her to the library where she heard arguing and crying. She pushed open the heavy doors and said, "Isabelle? Alec?" She heard a loud bang followed by many footsteps. The Lightwood family gazed at her before Isabelle ran up to her and cried, "CLARY! IVE MISSED YOU SO MUCH!"
"So have I, Iz. So have I." She caught Jace giving her a look of awe out of the corner of her eye and smirked, thinking about how much Jace probably wished he hadn't cheated on her now. Seeing her tanned skin and beautifully highlighted hair. Isabelle noticed her hair and how tan she was and gasped. "Clary you look beautiful now! Not like every weren't Where have you been?"
"I've been in Texas. It's awesome there. In the winter it never snows and it doesn't get too damn cold. And there's a lot of amusement parks." Alec came up behind her and grabbed her from Isabelle to give her a surprise hug. She raised her eyebrows in question, but hugged him back anyways. "I got over my shyness and our 'bad blood' thing. I hope you can forgive me," he whispered in her ear, his black silky hair tickling the rim of it. Then she saw jace leaning on a wall. Isabelle grabbed her attention again. "Clary why did you leave?"
"Oh Jace never told you?" Jace's face went from a smirk to confused and panicked look. "He cheated on me." Isabelle turned around to face him. "By the angle I'm so sorry clary. JACE HERONDALE YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTARD! Clary loved you and you cheated on her how dare you!" Isabelle gave him a look of disgust until Maryse walked in hearing Isabelle and scolded her. "Young lady don't say things like that to your brother! And you don't say those words in this house." But then Maryse saw Jace's confused and panic stricken face and gave him and Clary a questioning look before leaving the room. Alec stood behind Clary and looked at Jace with a look of rage and shock. Then Isabelle spoke, "Jace why? Why Clary? She never did anything to you she loved you. Why?" Isabelle asked. Clary suddenly noticed how skinny he was and the bags under his eyes. But before she could scan over him again he ran away to his room with his head down, and slammed the door with so much force it cracked. Only she knew what had actually happened and how drunk he had been if only she would have known.
