Clay and Jace had been sitting on the curb for at least ten minutes, and they had gotten nowhere. Every time one of them would suggest something, the other would hate the idea.

"I have an idea", Clary said again. She had to admit, most of her ideas had been rubbish so far but she wouldn't let Jace know.

"Shock me, say something intelligent", he mocked. He was sprawled on the floor with his head on his hands. Clary sighed, she was getting nowhere.

"It's too bad stupidity isn't painful", she retorted. Jace raised an eyebrow and gave a low chuckle making Clary's nerves tighten.

"I'm blonde, what's your excuse?" he said quickly. Clary had to admit, he was good at sarcasm.

"Beauty may be skin deep, but ugly is to the bone", she replied flicking her hair out of her way. Jace looked surprised but then composed himself.

"Are you always an idiot, or just when I'm around", he said and Clary thumped her hand hard on the curb. It would most certainly bruise.

"STOP, we have to find my mum", she shouted. Jace looked away, Clary instantly felt bad.

"Sorry", she whispered. Jace nodded, he understood perfectly well how she felt.

"We need a warlock", he said suddenly. Clary looked up at him, had he just given a sensible idea?

"Great!" she exclaimed a little too loudly. Jace gave a grin which almost instantly fell away.

"Where are we going to find a warlock?" he asked. Clary had absolutely no idea-it was hopeless.

"Warlock, I summon thee", Jace said dramatically. Clary couldn't help but let out a little snicker, which she quickly supressed. She was about to say something when there was a small puff of smoke and there before her was a man.

"Sheesh, that trick is so old", the sparkly man said looking at Jace. Jace just had his mouth open in shock, Clary couldn't blame him. Had his summoning worked?

"And before you ask, no I was not brought here by any force", he said looking at his nails. Clary looked at him and she realised he looked a bit like a cat. The warlock had cat like eyes, black nails and was dressed in very strange clothes. However, he did look amazing.

"Shame", Jace replied grinning up at the man. Clary couldn't wait any longer, she needed his help and fast.

"Can you help us?" she asked. The man looked puzzled.

"I didn't actually hear your request", he said looking slightly bored. Clary nodded, of course he hadn't.

"Can you portal us to Idris?" she asked in a sweet voice. The man smiled making him look like a chesire cat.

"Of course", he replied softly. He then started chanting and moving his hands. Clary and Jace jumped up, eager to get going. After a while, a bright shimmering portal appeared.

"Thank-you", Clary said and she really meant it. Just before she walked through, she turned around and looked at the warlock.

"What is your name?" she enquired. The warlock looked bemused before answering her.

"Magnus", he said.

"Thank-you Magnus", she said and stepped through the portal and went hurtling to Idris.

Hey everyone,

I am sorry for the short chapter! Exams are literally taking up my days but I still wanted to update:) How loyal I am…

So, isn't Magnus amazing?! I don't know, do you guys want to see more of him in the story? Does anybody want any other TMI characters? Please say if you do and I will try my best.

I would really appreciate if you r&r as I am feeling kind of low. I am not kidding, your reviews seriously make me happy!

Thanks and I hope you have a lovely week,

Heartshade
