Izzy, Madi, Jace and Clary are looking at the monitor, before Alec comes up to them.
Clary faced Alec, "How's Lydia?" She asked. "Better. Magnus is doing what he can to help her, but it's bad. And the Cup is definitely missing." Alec sighed. Madi frowned, "So is Hodge."
"Maybe he was attacked, too." Isabelle suggested, as she opened the security videos from the study. "Maybe he's the one who attacked her." Madi suggested, but Izzy gave her sister a confused look, "Hodge? No way. We've known him our entire lives. He would never do that to us." She said.
Izzy fastforwards the video until she for to the part where Lydia is attacked. They all stare in shock as they see it was indeed Hodge who attacked Lydia and took the Cup.
Jace shook his head in disgust, "I led him right to the Cup!" He blurted. Madi frowned, "No, Jace—" But Alec unintentionally cut her off, "We treated him like family. How could he do this to us?"
Izzy opens another security video of the infirmary where they see Hodge put on a ring. "That's how." Madi pointed out. "What is that ring?" Clary asked. "Looks like he's talking to someone." Izzy added
In the video, Hodge held up the cup.
Jace sighed, "And I can bet who it is." He said before Clary spat, "Valentine."
Alec looked away from the screen, and to his siblings plus Clary. "Well, that explains how he deactivated the Punishment rune, but it doesn't explain where he got the ring." Madeline bit her lip, "You think someone smuggled it past the wards?" She asked. Jace nodded at the Lightwood, "Maybe. Hodge wasn't the only ex-Circle member around here."
Isabelle sighed, "Look, I know I don't always see eye to eye with my parents, but I know they're not traitors." She insisted. "Really? Isn't that what you just said about Hodge? It'd have to be someone we trusted, but if there was an intruder inside the Institute, we would have found them by now." Jace declared.
"What about the Forsaken attack?" Clary suggested, but the eldest Lightwood shook his head, "No. We killed that thing and I didn't see a ring." Isabelle added, "He didn't have one during the autopsy, but maybe there's something in the footage."
Madi stepped forward and began to fast forward through the footage of the Forsaken attack. "Go to the other camera." Alec ordered. "There."
They see Hodge take the ring of the Forsaken's finger.
Madi frowned, "So, it wasn't a random attack." She stated. "He was just the delivery boy." Jace concluded.
