The panic that was feeling up Sages vines was clouding her thoughts. Not because she was worried about getting caught, god no! It was what would happen if something went wrong and she had to kill, to kill to survive of course. " get behind there" Jace says and points at the rosewood screen on the wall big enough to hide all of them . Scarring they all moved. It went from right to left Sage, Jace, Clary and Simon. Jace to have a better view moved his stele in a square shape, making the screen open wide revealing the view infront of them. Feeling Clary panic Jace looked at her in a way of saying its fine they can't see us but we can see them. Small noises where heard before Luke and the two warlocks came into the room. Luke turned in the direction of the two men, "yes feel free to look around" tone heavy " Nice of you to show such an interest" he added with sarcasm. Sage looked over at where Jace and Clary stood, Clary way to close to Jace moved her head to try and see, Jace noticing Tapped on the glass like square and in widened.
"Those are warlocks" Clary asked whispering. Sage now being able to see better, froze in place almost like Jace she had gone all rigid. Sage eyes fixed on one of the men his face now visible, Graymark. The man she swore to kill to drag out the blood from under his skin, to revenge the fallen and the blood that was spilled from his hand you could say. "No" Jace says breaking Sages concretion on the guy, "Shadowhunters. In warlock robes" he whispered his face pale white like he'd seen a ghost. Sage knowing why decided to act and went to step in front of the screen, but felt a hand stop her pulling her back, looking up she saw Jace his face had gained some colour but now his eyes where wide, Sage now titling her head to side, he could see her, see what she felt, rage she hated both of them. Jace took one more look at her shaking his head a swift no motion at her, being in the moment Jace hadn't taken notice of her eyes looking black almost as coal.
Zoning back into what the people where speaking about. She noticed they where speaking about the uprising, then about Clarys mum. "Yes, Jocelyn had a daughter. Clarissa. I assume she's run off. Did Valentine send you to find her? " Luke spoke his words making her flinch as she turned slightly to see Clarys face. "Not us" Said Pangborn looking around the room "but his got people looking" he finished. "We could search this place" added Blackwell making Sage look away from Clary and now towards his direction. "I wouldn't advice it " Luke said, and slid off the desk, the coldness in his face there and visible "What makes you think she is still alive? I thought Valentine sent Raveners to scour the place. Enough Ravener poison and most people will crumble away in ashes. "The Ravener was killed" said Pangborn " it made Valentine suspicions". "Everything makes Valentine Suspicions" Luke said adding a scoff. " Maybe Jocelyn killed it. She was certainly capable." "Maybe" Blackwell said. "Look. I've got no idea where the girl is, but for what is worth, I'd guess she's dead. She'd have turned up by now otherwise. Anyway, she's not much danger. She's fifteen years old, she's never heard of Valentine, and she doesn't believe in demons. " Luke shrugged at the end.
Sage was too busy thinking about killing them to listen to the rest. She only zoned back in when he heard, "We could stop you. Make you stay." It was Blackwell who spoke, Luke smiled that smile which changes a persons face, he didn't look welcoming anymore he had a feral look in his eyes. "You could try" he spoke viciously and cold. Both men looked at each other, but it was Blackwell who shook his head slowly once. " You'll notify us if you experience any sudden memory resurgence?" Pangborn adds looking over at him. Luke who was still smiling nodded " You'll be the first on my list to call" Pangborn nodded " I suppose well take our leave. The Angel guard you, Lucian" He spoke turning to leave " The angel does not guard those like me" Luke says picking up the duffle bag off the desk and knotted to top. " on your way gentleman?" was the last thing said before the left, but before Luke left he looked around like he was looking for something, like he wondered if he had forgotten something and turned shutting the door.
"Clary" it was simon who broke the silence as all of them moved from behind the screen. His voice hesitant "Are you okay? " he added looking over at her. Shaking her head, you could see she didn't feel bad, and even though Sage was in her own state she could recognise the pain and neglection she was feeling. "Of course she isn't" Jace spoke voice sharp and cold. " At least now we know who send the demon after your mother. Those men think she has the Mortal Cup" Sage was looking at Jace as he spoke. "Thats totally ridiculous and impossible" Clary said looking straight at him. "Maybe" he said and leaned against Luke's desk. " Have you ever seen those men before" It was now Sage who spoke up, looking over at Clary, ignoring the feeling of Jace looking over at the girl. "no" she spoke her head "never" Clary finished "Lucian seemed to know them. To be friendly with them" Jace added. "I wouldn't say friendly" said Simon "Id say they were suppressing their hostility."
"They didn't kill him outright," said Jace. " They think he knows more than his telling" "Maybe" Clary spoke " or maybe they're just reluctant to kill another shadowhunter" Sage scoffed and Jace laughed a harsh laugh " I doubt that" Clary looked over at him hard. "what makes you so sure? Do you know them?" she questioned. The laughter had gone from his voice entirely. " Do i know them? You might say that. Those are the men who murdered my father." Sage now looking over at him. "Those men are wile, they have killed destroyed on the behalf of themselves and Valentine" Sage spoke the coldness of her voice freaked Simon out, The way of how a sweet like voice like hers can sound like that, made his hairs stand up. " They deserve to be killed, more than that, to suffer the death of all the peoples loved ones who have died" she finished now looking over at Jace. Only now did he notice the blackness of her eyes, how they have changed. Blinking he looked at her again only to notice her greenish eyes looking back at him. " We should get back" It was Clary who spoke breaking the moment, looking over at both of them.
