The sun hadn't shone through the window onto the bed yet. I woke up to the smell of Jace's cologne since he had his hand over my side. I rolled over to face him, and kissed his nose. His eyes flew open in terror and he grabbed my face in his hands.

"Honey! What's wrong?!?!?" I said putting my hands on his strong chest.

"My dreams....... you ........ died.....driving.....valentine..." He gasped, bewildered.

"It's just a dream! Don't worry." I pulled him closer to me and kissed him, gentle yet pure. "I'm still here."

He gave me one deep look then shut his eyes and drifted back to sleep.

"Valentine's dead." I said to myself, wrapping my arms around him, holding him close. "He can't hurt me anymore. Anymore."

〰 TIME SKIP TO LATER THAT MORNING〰

I laid that way, not able to fall back asleep, till the sun was up, sending rays of light across the duvet. Jace was still folded in my arms when my phone's alarm when off, playing Counting Stars by OneRepublic. Wow that was an old song.

Hearing voices from down the hall, I got up to investigate. I slipped out of bed onto the cold marble floor over to the wardrobe. I stripped off my sweatpants and tank top and replaced them with a pair of skinny jeans, a tight velvet blouse (Izzy's touch), and my combat boots. I glanced in the mirror and see what would of been 16 year old Clary Frey, but was actually 26 year old Clary Herondale. I must of made a lot of noise cause Jace was up and was walking over to me, and was only in underwear. To be honest he looked like a underwear model with his shoulder length, wavy blond hair and his famous sexy smirk.

"Morning Babe." I said, kissing him lightly.

"You looks gorgous, as usual" Him saying this makes me blush.

"Thanks!" I replied, kissing his collarbone. "You should go get dressed. Some sort of commotion is out in the hall so I gotta go."

"Kay, and thanks for staying up."

"How'd you-? Ya know? I actually don't want to know how you know."

"You don't"

"See you in a little bit."

"Bye," I said, opening the door and exiting.

Turns out the commotion was about my Mom and Dad. They had gotten here pretty early cause they used an actual plane not by portalling.

I walked down the hallway into the living room where mom, Jocelyn was surrounded by kids while my dad, Luke stood behind the couch by her shoulder.

Since they all had their backs to me, I decided to surprise them. I hit behind the wall. Jace was walking down the hallways so I waved him over quietly.

"You hug Luke, and I'll get mom." I whispered really quietly. He raised an eyebrow but nods. We crouch so no one can see us and I nod to Jace and we both jump up and hug my parents.

"Ah!" yelped Luke as Jace appeared at his side and put his arm around Luke's shoulder. I quickly wrapped my arms around my mom from behind and kissed her head.

"Oh My!" She said startled. "Clary! Don't do that!"

"Merry Christmas!" I said kissing her cheek. I spun to see Luke was looking at me, smiling. "Hi Dad."

"Hey Sweetie!" He said hugging me. "Merry Christmas."

Then a loud "MOM!" split the air. Knowing my kids voices, that was Rockelle.

"What Rocky?" I yell back.

She trots into the room.

"My seraph blade won't-" She stopped at the sight of Jocelyn and Luke. "Oh hi Grandma Joesee, Grandpa Luke."

She scooted over and sat down next to mom and hugged her then hugged dad.

"Anyways, My seraph blade won't work when I name it. It keeps sputtering out."

"That's an easy problem. So easy that I'm gonna let your mom fix this" Said Jocelyn getting up and walking toward the training room "And I want to watch."

Everyone jogged/walked/sprinted to the training room. I being in constant competition with Simon, raced him towards the room. And that's when I realized my mistake. I probably should add that Simon is a vampire. A very strong and FAST vampire. Though I was still in great shape, he still beat me. Once everyone was in there, I said:

"Ok, so show me what you mean."

"K" Rocky said walking over to the blade that was in her cubby hole.

She slid it out and chanted, " I name you Kerriatai. For you shall smite down all my foes." The blade blew with whitish blue light the quickly blew out.

"I know exactly what you are doing wrong." I said, coming over. "Hand me the blade." She gave it to me willingly. I thruster out the blade in front of me.

"Watch and Learn!" Jace said to the rest of the kids.

"I NAME YOU KERRIATAI! FOR YOU SHALL SMIGHT DOWN ALL FOES THAT STAND IN THE WAY OF ANY SHADOWHUNTER, VAMPIRE, SEELIE MEMBER, OR WEREWOLF!" I said with such confidence and might that the blade burns red, not its normal color. The crowd of family gasped as the blade alights.

"Wow, Mom, how did you do that?" asked Archer as he pushes past his siblings and cousins to the front.

"Yeah Honey! How did you do that?" Jace also asked in amazement.

"I just used my full confidence and I put all of my feelings into it." I said, blushing. The blade sputters out as I give it to Rocky. "Now you try."

"What do I have to say?" Rocky said in awe.

"This time just repeat the name."

"KERRIATAI!" The blade lit, but still with its original blue color. "Oh"

"I guess your mom is special." Suggested, Izzy as she wrapped her arm around my shoulder.

"I Guess." I add.
