The Mortal Instruments: City Of Lies (SEBASTIAN)

Chapter 1

Meet Anastasia , she was your normal teenage girl, who never spoke, never showed her face, she was the typical quiet girl to the eyes of mundanes that is.But they didn't know who she really was. She was a Shadowhunter, who had a normal life really, in the morning she's a high school student and at night she's a warrior, or whenever she doesn't have to show herself to mundanes.They never understand why she always wears black, or how she always wears hooded clothing, the only thing people might see is her exposed coal like hair, maybe occasionally she would show her face, but she was never founded of it.She lived up at the institute with Jace, Isabelle, Alec and Hodge. She was everyone's favourite, always making sarcastic comments and being the heartbreaker. She learnt most of this from Jace. Jace was like a brother to her, they lived together most of their lives, both had the golden eyes, the sharp facial features and the same attitude, only her hair was black and his was pure gold.

But something made her really different. It was her eyes, the way they turn black and if the life was sucked out of her, they always changed when her emotions did, that's why most of the time everyone tries to keep her smiling and happy.

She had to go through the struggle of a high school student due to the reason that she was appointed to look after Clary Fairchild, the girl who never knew her secret life, she grew up like a mundane never knew the life of a Shadow Hunter, didn't even know what it was, but they were bestfriends, always have been probably won't after she tells her the truth about who Clary really was. She was friends with Simon but she had something for him, he was the one who really clicked with her, the one who made her happy, but he was too obsessed with Clary, always asking her how he could possibly make her like him, she always said she never knew, a girls feelings always change.

She would always walk down the corridor minding her business, but people take advantage of her being quiet, today wasn't the day. Anastasia made her way to the locker, she opened it and got her books, she closed it and made her way to class, but it didn't work. One of the schools "bad boy" smacked the books from her hands, making it fall on the floor, all the loose pages went flying. Angry for what he had done, in one quick motion she had pinned him against the lockers, making him struggle, she liked it, she shouldn't but somehow she did, he had turned blue by the time Clary pulled her away.

" What is wrong with you, you can't go attacking someone" she screamed

" Just leave me alone" Anastasia said while walking away, leaving her books on the floor, Clary, muttering under her breath picked up the books and ran after Anastasia, she was in the deserted class playing with something called a stele, Anastasia never told Clary what it was she always said it was a gift that's really special to her. Clary placed the books beside her and took a seat.

"What's wrong?" Clary questioned.

" Nothing" Anastasia replied.

" Well it sure doesn't look like nothing, why did you pin him against the lockers?"

" Because, the locker really suited him" she said sarcastically.

" Oh haha, but come on you should cope with your temper, it's getting out of hand, but anyway how about we go down to the cafe, Simons bands playing and I need a distraction, well you can talk to me" she asked her, almost pleading with her, Anastasia went with it.

Most of the time, mundane lessons never was important, she had lessons in the institute, however, she did learn a lot, how mundanes will do anything to just have little power over everyone, how they discriminate against people due to the race and gender, not all do it though but it was different to how her life was, yeah not all shadowhunter are the best of friends but they still coped with life, maybe it's the fact you can die anytime, no wonder they wear black, cause you never know who's going to die next.

Most of her time was spent looking out of the window or drawing runes all over her books, many asked why she does it, " it's art" she always replied, they just shrugged their shoulders and left her alone, Clary was the one who was really interested, she was fascinated by the way the lines join together to make a rune, Clarys mom disproved with this, Anastasia was told of for making Clary remember her past, she had to know her past, why hide your real identity, it's what makes you, you.

Something about the runes jogged her memory, she was in fact a shadowhunter living in the mundane world.

School had finished, Anastasia had put her hood up and made her way out with Clary. They went straight to the cafe called Java Jones, they made frequent trips their to drink coffee or just to talk, they both ordered expresso, it did in fact match their soul, just bitter and dark.

They had watched Simons band perform, well you can't say they did, they just sat in the back drinking what they ordered, they took at-least two hours listening to music that was average not the best but who cares right, it's entertainment.

They made their way home, half way, Simon and Clary crossed the road and went home together, Anastasia made her way to the institute, just taking her time, she doesn't do much but spends her time training, dancing or sitting in the greenhouse drawing.

She had taken a hour, just to get to the abandoned church, for her it was a beautiful institute, something which really does blow your mind, she pushed the gates and got inside, closing it behind her she made her way to the entrance, she had got inside and made her way to the elevator, closing the gate she pressed the button which took her to a corridor located a level up, she was welcomed by church,she knelt down to pet him,being bored she straightened up while she looked at the cat who had now walked of.

" Where have you been Anastasia?".

She looked up to see Isabelle standing there, her arms crossed like a mother looking at her child who just did something wrong.

" I don't know, I was gone hunting for Unicorns but they sadly ran away so I cried my way here, reason being why I was so late"
