I pushed through the sweaty bodies following Clary. I see her flirt with some dude going into a VIP section. Ducking under the curtains I hid behind a Pilar.

Peeking out form the pillar I can see the blond talking to someone a seraph blade in hand. A black hair girl stood on a podium swaying her hips.

"Watch out!" This dumbass. She saved a demon.

"Get back." The blonde ordered pushing Clary back.

Everything went to shit from there. Arrows started flying demons faces turning into octopuses. Clary killed a demon and one tackled me.

I kicked him off grabbing my katana, slicing off his head when he came charging.

Looking away from the dust falling to the ground I see the three Shadowhunters watching me.

"Great." I mumbled.

"Who are you?" A tall black head ordered. I tilted my head and observed them.

"Ariella. Excuse me." I walked past the blonde heading towards the exit.

"Wait!" I hear one of them yell but I am too far away. I broke out in a sprint from there.

•••

Reaching the house I slowed down. Seeing the blood on the ground I took out my katana.

Walking in I searched the place, nobody's here, not anymore.

This is my chance. Running to my mothers room I opened her closet, tearing out the floor board. I slowly took out the box. My mom has multiple hiding places, I'm only concerned for this one.

Opening the box I gently grasp the bracelet inside. It was Jonathan, my little brother's keepsake bracelet. I miss him. When he was born I wouldn't leave his side. Day and night I stayed with him.

Taking off my necklace, which was a long chain with a simple charm, I took off the charm and replaced it with the bracelet. Grasping it in my hand I rocked slightly on the heels of my feet.

"I miss you so much." I whisper a tear falling down my cheek.

My moment of sadness was interrupted by a sound from the livingroom. I could hear crashing and growling.

Looking out the window I didn't see anyone but I heard the bell jingle from the store down stairs.

Slowly walking towards the door avoiding all the creaky floor boards.

"Dot!" Looking out I see Clary dropping an axe?

"Clary, they took Jocelyn." I glanced at Dot before making my way to my sister.

"Ariella where have you been?!" Clary yelled anger taking over her face.

"Clary get behind me. Now." I order. This isn't Dot.

"Ariella I am so sorry. Joce-" This definitely isn't Dot.

"Get away." I say as she steps forward.

"You know." She growled before her face split. Pushing Clary out of the way I grabbed my katana.

I blocked the swipe but it hit me on the side causing me to fly against the wall. Storming towards me it slashed at me. Rolling away and standing back up I took a defensive stand.

Twisting to the right I brought down my katana nicking it's chest.

"Ahh." Turning my head I see Clary trip over a lamp that was knocked over.

The demon growling caught my attention but I was too late as it's claws came down ripping my abdomen.

Gasping I dropped my katana. The demon then hit me once again causing me to hit the brick pillar with my back.

It raced towards me but before it could do anymore damage a seraph blade stuck through it.

Dropping my head I see Clary lying on the floor passed out. Glancing up I see the blonde from the club.

"What? No thank you for saving your life." He asked.

Letting out a soft scoff I got to my feet stumbling. "Hey be careful it got you good." He warned taking a step forward.

Breathing heavily I looked up at him. My vision blurred making him look slightly pixelated.

Then I dropped passing out.
