Angelic attachments

Deathly silent

It was quite awkward with the silence and Clary soon wished that everyone would start talking again. When she looked up she scanned the room for any familiar face, she knew some of her fathers followers and silently wished they were there to get her and take her to her father and Jonathan so they could live life as normal but she knew that wouldn't happen. While she was scanning the crowed room she noticed Isabelle and Helen were no longer by her side, instead they were standing in the front row next to a older Isabelle, Clary guessed it was Isabelle's mother, and a blond boy next to him was a ... WAIT! Clary's eyes shot back to the blond boy. It was golden boy from the hill. Clary suddenly felt a lot of anger towards the blond. That was why he was there, he was there to get her father and get whatever it was they wanted. She made a mental note to smash his face if she ever saw him, you know not in a crowded hall, for not telling her what was happening when it was clear now he must of known who she was.
Clary decided to deal with the anger later and started to scan the room again. While she did this she took the chance to look at peoples faces. Some of the shadowhunters were looking at her with faces of pity, she didn't like that, others were looking at her with looks of terror , not surprising given who her father was, and others with pure death glares." Clarissa adel morgenstern. How nice to finally meet you." A voice said from her side breaking her concentration from the crowd. "you know why you are here today.correct." Clary nodded her head. "Well then we will get right to it. Bring out the sword!" A tall man with messy hair walked forward handing , what clary guessed was the mortal sword to the woman and gave clary a warm smile as he walked back that for some reason helped her calm down a little."Now Clarissa please hold the end of the mortal sword. I am going to ask you a few questions." Clary took the end of the sword in both hand and took a deep breath. "We will start with simple questions first. What is your full name?" Clary felt her mouth open and before she even realised what was going on she answered "Clarissa Adel Fairchild Morgenstern". Clary didn't mind saying her full name but now she knew she had no control over what she said, they could ask her anything they wanted and she would have no choice but to tell them the truth." Good. Now for the real questions. So you lived in the morgenstern manor with you father Valentine and brother johnathan, is this correct." "This is correct" clary replied. "And Valentine, your father , did he ever hurt or attack you ?" Clary's mind flashed back to when she was five years of age and the small red headed child ran down stairs with her favourite teddy in hand after hearing the screaming coming from the basement. As she opened the door to the dark room the violent screams got louder, walking down the creaky stair case the 5 year old was shocked by the scene in front of her. Clary's older brother was kneeling on the floor screaming in pain as her father continuously whipped Jonathan's toned back with a belt that was soaked with his blood. "Daddy?" Clary whimpered from the stairs. Valentine stopped. Slowly he turned towards his daughter, his face covered in Jonathan's splattered blood and his eyes blazing with evil. As he looked at her, Clary's bones chilled and her blood ran cold, she could tell she had interfered at a wrong time as her father slowly walked towards her an evil smirk playing at his lips.
"Clarissa, Clarissa , Clarissa." His voice was cold.
"Why must you always get in the way while daddy is just beginning to have fun. I do not interfere when you have fun. It's just plain disrespect that you are showing darling daughter. And there must be a punishment for that." His deathly white face got darker as he said this, then suddenly Valentine was behind her and she couldn't breath. Lifting her tiny hands to her throat clary clawed and the leather belt and tried to beg for Valentine to release it and let her breath. A deep laugh escaped her fathers lips as he finally released her and threw her to the concrete floor. After hitting her head the small child decided sleep was the best option, the easy option, so she let the darkness surround her.

When the flash back ended clary stood silent. "I will ask you again" said the woman " did your father ever hurt or attack you?" Clary fought with all the strength not to answer she didn't want her father in more trouble, dead or not. A sharp pain pierced through her skull as she desperately tried not to spit out everything that the sword was trying to drag out of her mouth. Just as she thought she could take it no longer and was about to spill everything a loud voice sounded from where she had entered from. "Stop! Let her go. Don't make her trail with the sword make me do it." Clary breathed a huge sigh of relief as she saw her brother and instantly dropped the mortal sword to run into her brothers warm embrace. "Are you okay Clare-bear? Did they hurt you ?" Jonathan whispered in her ear. "I'm fine Jon and no they haven't hurt me... Yet" she whispered back. "Very well then" the woman who had been questioning clary spoke up for the first time since Jonathan had entered " Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern. Please take the end of the sword". Slowly the older sibling released his little sister and made his way over to the sword. As he rapped his hands around the tip of the sword the room, that had been humming with noise once Jonathan entered" went deathly silent once again.
