Valentina's POV

"Lena, Clary, come on. We gotta go." Simon urged and I sighed and shook my head.

"Si, I think Jace can help us." I grab his hand and he looks at me in disbelief.

"What?" He says and Clary pushes him forward while I drag him inside the building. "How do we know this Mick Jagger-looking guy is even going to try--"

"Mundane, we do not have the time." Jace urged and I pulled Simon in the institute with Clary following behind us.

"Come on Si, lets go."

As we went inside I turned back to Simon only to see him staring at the three of us in confusion. Then Jace got out his steele and started to draw a rune on his arm, Simon gasped at the sight and Clary grabbed his hand.

"I know, trust me." Clary whispered and he looked at her then me.

"He's, like, burning himself." Then Jace grabbed onto his arm and Simon started stuttering, "Buddy, what's going on man. I'm not your type, man. I don't even.." I laughed a little at how nervous and flustered Simon was.

I waited for the affects of the rune to show him the real reason we were inside the church when he started stuttering a few seconds after.

"Where are we? What the hell?" He asked, "Lena, Clary, is there a war going on that I don't know about?" He looked at me and Clary then turning back to the building stareing in awe.

"There is now." Jace informs and starts walking away with the three musketeers trailing behind.

"I think our mother's at the center of it." Clary tells Simon and I grab his hand in reassurance.

"What is this place? There's a lot of gear in here. What's they do, rob a tech shop? So this cold-blooded killer is gonna help us?" Simon was asking a lot of questions which was understandable since I still wanted to ask a lot more question.

"He's not a killer." Clary turns to face Simon and I nod about to finish her sentence.

"He's protecting us." I say and Simon nods understanding the situation a little better.

"Specifically, you and Clary. It's sort of our thing." Jace smirks a little and I see an unknown emotion in Simons eye.

"Your thing? You three have a thing?" I roll my eyes and smile, ahh I know what it is... Jealously.

"He means a Shadowhunter thing. Shadowhunters protect humans from Demons." I squeeze his shoulder while trying to explain the current situation.

"Demons, right. That makes perfect sense, cause there are demons running all around New York." I raise my eyebrow at his sarcasm wondering why he was acting like this, after the current situation he was in five minutes ago why can't he believe in Demons.

"That is the first thing you said correct all day." Jace points at him and I roll my eyes at the two boys looking at the screen we were currently in front of. There were men standing a few feet away at the entrance.

"Will they find us?" Clary asked and Jace shook his head.

"No. Our wards will deter them They'll do their mundane thing for a few hours then the area will be clear." He explains when the brown haired boy named Alec comes into the conversation.

"What is going on? Why is there a mundane in the Institute?" Alec looked at Simon as if examining him.

Jace sighed, "A Circle member followed him to get to Clary and Val."

"A Circle rune, just like the guys that took our mother." Clary said and Simon looked at me weird for a second.

"What exactly is a Circle member and why is he calling you Val?" Simon pointed towards Jace and I shrugged.
