Nyx Fray, older sister of Clary Fray, stubborn, quiet, a soldier who takes her job very seriously. She rarely smiles and is very protective over her little sister. When both girls get thrown into the shadowworld, anger steams out, tears fall and smi...
" Oh good, you're awake. Mind explain why there's nothing on you on the computer? " Was the first thing Nyx heard when she walked out the infirmary behind her sister. She looked up, meeting the blue eyes of the familiar blond, Jace, Nyx presumed.
" I don't think it's any of your business whether there is or isn't anything on me on the computer, " Nyx retorted, crossing her arms across her chest, wanting her leather jacket more than anything now seeing as multiple people glanced at her scars before going back to whatever they were doing.
My retort seemed to shut Jace up seeing as he huffed and looked away, moving to stand next to Clary as they all walked outside to meet an anxious Simon outside. Nyx took that as a chance to look around. This place was full of computer screens and runes dotted the walls, floors, basically everything. People were rushing through, either hustling from some where or typing at a keyboard or just string at a screen, their eyes moving at a fast pace.
" Simon! " Clary exclaimed, rushing outside to hug her anxious best friend. Simon broke out of the hug, taking Clary by the shoulders and made sure she was okay, only for his eyes to widen at what the younger red head was wearing.
" Clary, what are you wearing? " Simon choked out, feeling his cheeks softly warm up, not noticeable to anyone but the older red head, who was scanning the area for intruders, she knew something was wrong, she could feel it in her bones if that made any sense.
Clary and Simon began talking, giving Jace the opportunity to saunter over to the older Fray, standing in front of her, trying to hide the fact that Nyx was intimidating him greatly, her blue green eyes piercing into his sky blue ones.
" What do you want blondie? " Nyx asked, a sigh leaving her lips. Jace scoffed, stepping back a step before crossing his arms across his chest, giving her a stern look.
" First of all, it's Jace and second of all, I wanted to ask where you learned to fight seeing as I have never seen you before and you couldn't be just a new shadowhunter, " Jace put quotation marks on new shadowhunter as he said it, his voice sounding mocking.
" Again, I don't see how it's any of your business to know what I do- it's none of your business to know anything about me actually, at least, until I trust you, which will be doubtful, " Nyx retorted back, her eyes not looking at his, only scanning the perimeter, something was going to happen and soon.
" Ouch, and here I thought you would at least be thankful to me seeing as I pretty much saved your life, " Jace didn't get a replay this time, instead, he got pushed to the side and watched with wide eyes as the older red head run to her sister to protect her from the circle member that suddenly appeared.
" Clary and Nyx Fairchild! " the circle member yelled out, about to attack when Nyx pulled out her two electric buttons and threw the at the intruder's leg, electrocuting him, making him fall to the ground and no doubt going to leave him paralyzed for a few hours if he did make it out alive.

Nyx then took out her dagger and stabbed him in the chest, watching with cold eyes as the life faded away from the circle member.
Simon, Clary watched the whole thing go down with wide, saucer like eyes while Jace, though shocked, looked impressed.
" What the hell was that Nyx?! " Nyx rolled her eyes before standing up, wiping away the blood from the dagger on the dead circle member's clothes, she didn't want to ruin whoever's clothes she was wearing.
" Jace, can you deglamourize so that Simon doesn't think we're crazy and Nyx, how the hell did you learn to do that, and where did you get your weapons from? Why do you even carry weapons in the first place? " Clary kept firing questions to her older sister as Jace showed himself to Simon and ushering all of them in the institute, not liking the idea of a mundane inside the institute.
" Clary, seriously, I will explain everything lat- " but Nyx was cut off by Clary. The younger red head was going to get answers now, whether her sister liked it or not.
" No, I want you to tell me now and don't lie either, " Nyx visible clenched her jaw and breathed out through her nose before stopping, turning to look at her sister before nodding, she knew that Clary wasn't going to let it go.
" Fine. I learned to fight by taking self defense classes and I carry weapons so that I could protect you and protect myself at all times, is that all?, " Nyx sarcastically asked, avoiding the question of how she got the weapons, changing her mind about telling her sister of her regular job, deciding that it was non of Clary's business to know about her job.
" Where did you get the weapons? " It wasn't Clary who asked this, it was Jace. Clary then nodded her head, as well as Simon, they all wanted to know.
" That, I'm afraid I can't and won't answer, " Jace rolled his eyes, of course.
" Let me guess, it's non of our business? " Jace sarcastically put in, but before Nyx could answer, a guy and a girl came with him, they looked a like so they were probably siblings.
" Why is there a mundane in the institute? " Alec asked, sparing a glance at everyone and to his surprise, the older red head, Nyx, was awake and leaning against a wall, her expression guarded.
Nyx tuned out everything after that, only getting bits and pieces. Simon left with the girl, Isabelle after Alec, the taller guy said that there were runes on the floor that could kill mundanes, and the rest followed after Jace to the training room where they met Hodge, their trainer and then all of a sudden they were all going out in hopes in finding Dot, but they had no luck. During all of that, Nyx didn't say a thing, only stayed silent and molded into the shadows looking out for any signs of trouble with the usual stern, cold expression on her face.
" What about our memories, they can't be just gone? " Nyx questioned, finally speaking. The group all jumped, and yes, that included the very skilled, very trained shadowhunters. Note the sarcasm.
They all seemed to forget about the older red head with them, she being so silent that they actually forget she even existed.
" There is a way, " Jace spoke, looking for to Clary than the others.
The Lightwoods gave him a clear 'No' and 'don't even think about it', expression.
" I'm not afraid of the Silent Brothers, " Jace stated with so much bravery that Nyx could've given him a golden star sticker.
Nyx knew of the Silent Brothers, remembering the little details her mother told her when she revealed the truth about the shadow world. Though she knew little, she knew enough to know that it was probably not a good idea to go to the Silent Brothers for retrieving their memories.
" Who are the Silent Brothers? " Clary asked, confused as she looked to Jace.
" They're a group of superior shadowhunters with power to give people their memories back, " Jace explained.
" But the process of retrieving our memories from the Silent Brothers could also get us killed, so there's no way I'm allowing this to happen, " Nyx said, crossing her arms across her chest.
After a lot of arguing, the group decided to just go to the Silent Brothers to retrieve Nyx's and Clary's memories. Off to the cemetery they go. Yay.
