Chris's Pov

"You have really been here for that long?" I ask the women in the cell across from me. The reason why I am in this cell is because of Jinxx. He wanted me to help rescue their friend who obviously did not want to be rescued. But anyways, the council caught me before I could get away. Now I am sitting in this dark, damp, yucky cell.

"Yes I have. You get used to it down here." She said. I heard her chuck something at the wall. She sighed. "Did you see Clarissa up there?" The concern in her voice really brought my attention to what she had just asked. 

"Ah yes I did. She was helping the council. Why do you ask?" I am now very curious as to why she is so concerned about this Clarissa girl. 

"Well believe it or not she is my daughter. This was the first time I have seen her in a long time. The twisted thing about this is that I didn't even tell her I was her mother." 

"Wait. Why would you not tell her that?" Seriously though, why would you not want to tell your daughter that you are her mother? 

"I wanted to protect her. I didn't want her to do anything crazy and get herself killed. But, her being killed would honestly be better than what they have turned her into."  She had a point. Now that Clarissa was more powerful than ever, the council can use her as a dangerous weapon. And who knows what the councils intentions are. 

"Well maybe if we can find a way to get out of here we can save her. Figure out how to bring back her memories of everyone. I'm almost positive that they brainwashed her or something." I felt around my cell to see if I could find anything useful. All my hands felt were small pebbles. That would sure do a lot of damage. Not.  I got up and tried yanking on the bars. They were to strong. 

"It's no use. You wont be able to rip them apart. I've tried countless times. Each time was a big fail." I groan and sit back on the floor. I sat in thought for a good two minutes. 

"I know how we can get out of here." 

Clary's Pov

For the past days all I have been doing is training. The council keeps telling me that I need to have full control over my powers so when the head master comes in he will be pleased. I have still managed to keep my memories a secret and play along with the game. There have not been any new injections for a while. Lets hope it stays that way. It scares me how strong I am now. Back at the guys place they were all freaking out and saying how cool it was that I was stronger than them but now, they would be frightened. It's also crazy how I can literally shoot fire out of my hands, make my hands ice cold (more cold than they were before), and I can compel vampires. I don't even know what I am anymore. I'm definitely not human and I am not your average vampire. My thoughts were interrupted when Janice said something. 

"What?" I said clueless.  

"Are you ok? You seem really out of it dear. Are you hungry?" She asked. Oh no. I can't blow my cover. 

"Yes I am very hungry. All I can think about is eating something." Janice gave me a weird look. She walked over to the cooler and pulled out a bag of blood and tossed it to me. 

"Well I got this for you. But, you drink it. You don't eat it." Well no shit. A gave a little laugh to show her that everything was all good. I ripped the top of the bag open and guzzled the blood. Well if I wasn't feeling good before, I definitely do now. 

"Clarissa!" Margret said rushing up to me. " You better start resting because we just got news that James is coming tomorrow to see your skills! You do not want to disappoint him." She said seriously. 

My eyes got wide for a second. " What happens if I don't impress him?" She bit the bottom of her lip.

"I'm not sure sweetie. We have never gotten this far in the process." She said with a bright look on her face. I must be such an accomplishment. "You must go up to your room now so you can save your energy and be powerful tomorrow. Here, take this!" she says as she thrusts the blood cooler into my arms. "Make sure to drink all of these but save a couple for tomorrow morning. We will be checking in on you to make sure you are drinking them!" She said and bopped me on the nose.  

I turned around and started walking to my room. I need to get out of here before this James guy gets here. But how? I eventually got up to my room and closed the door behind me when I entered. I set the cooler on my desk and sat on my bed. I put my hands on my head. I wonder what happened to Chris. Last time I saw him they were dragging him into the building. The cellar! He has to be there. Magda too! I can give them bags of blood so they can get stronger and help me get out of here! I will just have to wait until it gets darker out. 

Andy's Pov

I sat in my dark room with a bottle of whisky in my hand. Nothing has been the same around here ever since Clary refused to come back. I've been so lazy I had to get a new personal slave to do all my work. Her name is Mariana. She is a pretty young girl with brown hair and hazel eyes but she is nothing compared to Clary. I liked how she would put up a fight and be stubborn. Mariana is to afraid to do any of that. That just means I wont have to beat her.  There was a knock at my door. 

"Come in" I mumbled. The door slowly opened and I could see Mariana in the door way. 

"I finished all my tasks master. What should I do next?" She asked me in a shy voice. 

"I want some blood." I demand. 

"Certainly. I'll go downstairs and get you some blood bags," She said as she was about to close the door. 

"No. I don't want blood bags. I need it fresh. Come here. " Slowly she made her way over to me. If this was Clary, she wouldn't have done that. Sometimes I miss when she was human. It was exciting to have a stubborn human. Maybe if I never turned her she wouldn't be in the situation that she is now. 

Mariana sat on the end of my bed. I could feel her shaking a little bit. I moved over to her and brushed her hair out of the way. Her skin smelled like vanilla. It was nice but it wasn't like Clary. I got closer to her neck and sunk my teeth into her. She jerked in her spot. She clutched the sheets trying her best not to cry out in pain. I felt a buzz when her blood went into my mouth. That was one thing blood could do for me that alcohol couldn't, get me drunk. I pulled away before the poor girl would pass out. Her breathing was fast. When she stood up she had some troubles with her balance. She made her way to the door and let herself out. 

Mariana's pov

That was the first time that my master had ever drank from me. Holy hell, that was terrible. Every night I had to hear him blurt out the same story over and over again on how I would never be like Clarissa. Who even is Clarissa? If it wasn't for this chick I bet I wouldn't even be here right now. All that I want is to go home. Back to my parents. I miss my friends and my boyfriend. I didn't even get to say goodbye to him. Every night before I would go to sleep I would write letters to him and fold them up. I would through them out of the window and watch the wind carry the paper away. I like to pretend that everything I have written has been delivered to him. The only thing I have is the heart locket that has a picture of both of us. I somehow managed to keep it from the guards when they were getting me ready for the auction. I remember that day so clearly. All of the girls and boys deathly afraid of what their fate was going to be. All of them scared because they didn't even know if they would survive a day in a household with a vampire. I remember getting chosen. The tears streaming down my face as I was walked down to my new owner. I still have nightmares about it. Maybe one day I'll be able to get out of here and find my way back home. Find my way back to my loving Toby.
