With Loves Last Breath

Random number

Clary looked around frantically. She was at the meeting place, and no one else had shown up. She was starting to panic. Clary tried to call Jace again but it went to voicemail, just like the last ten times she called him.  She considered calling Simon, but she knew that he didn't usually carry his phone with him to things like this. Almost as if thinking of him summoned him, Simon came running up, with Izzy not far behind him. Clary ran to him and crashed into a hug that practically suffocated her.

"Simon, you can let go now."

He looked at her red face and quickly let go, blushing. "Sorry, I'm just.... really glad your safe. After I lost you in the crowd I tried to find you but everyone was pushing and shoving to get out, and  was trapped. I made it outside and bumped into Izzy, who said that Alec had run off to find Magnus and we ran straight here.."

"Clary where's Jace and Alec?" asked Izzy, out of breath.

"I don't know, I thought led was with you, and the last time I saw Jace, he was jumping on stage to grab Magnus."

"I looked for them but I didn't find anyone. I hoped that they had come to the meeting place,  ut clearly I was wrong."

"Well the were could they be?!" exclaimed Simon. He looked around them, like they were hiding, at if he looked hard enough, he could find them. He glanced at Clary and gasped.

"Clary your hurt! Why didn't you say something?"

Clary looked at him confused and then glanced down at her arm were he was starring. The skin was torn apart into two jagged pieces from her elbow to her wrist, and the blood was caked on all around the wound, starting to dry up from dripping down her arm.

"I, I didn't notice" Clary stuttered, getting dizzy from the sight of all that blood. "I was so worried that you guys had gotten hurt or worse, that I think my mind didn't perceive any pain."

She moved her arm around and sucked in a breath. "I guess my mind recognized  the pain" she hissed, gritting her teeth.

Izzy frowned at her arm. "We should get you to a hospital" she said. "Your gonna need some stitches for that."

Clary paled and started to back away.

"NO! N..n..no hospitals! I won..I won't go! You..you can't m..m... make me!"

Simon quickly walked over and put his arms around her.

"Shhh, it's ok, we get it. No hospitals."

Clary relaxed in his arms. "Thank you." she whispered.

Izzy looked at them, confused. "Ok, I don't know what's happening but we've got a problem. Clary's hurt, really bad. And if she refuses to got to the hospital, then we've got to at least bandage the cut and find Jace, Alec and Magnus. They should be here by now so either they got lost, or one of them might be hurt."

She looked around for a second and her sight landed on Simons tie.

"Simon give me your tie. It's the closest thing we've got to a bandage. Simon untied it and looked at it sadly.

"This was my favorite tie. I'm gonna miss it" he sighed, handing it over to Izzy.

"Well I'm putting it to good use. This might just save Clary's life. But it's not enough. Sooner or later, we need to get medical attention for this cut. No hospitals," she said, noticing Clary's face, "but at least have a doctor look at it."

With that said, the trio started to make their way over to the Ballroom, which was just a nickname for the empty space in the building next to the Auditorium. It was supposed to be where a lunch banquet would take place after the ceremony, but no everyone was going there to asses their injuries and find any people separated from their groups. The three friends hoped that if Jace, Alec and Magnus weren't at the meeting spot, them they were at the luncheon.

They walked in and Izzy gasped. The place was a mess, almost as bad as the Auditorium. There were cracks in the walls, dust from the ceiling still raining down, and what used to be a chandler laying shattered in the corner.

"What happened here?" Clary said weekly.

A man came up quivering.

"It was crazy!" the man exclaimed. "We were preparing the last minute touches dor the luncheons when suddenly a huge rumbling sound filled the air and the whole building started to shake."

"Just like what happened in the Aud." Simon murmured.

"Do you see the anywhere" Clary asked Izzy, who was the tallest in her heels.

"No, there's no sign of them." she said, frustrated. 

Suddenly, a wail pierced through the air.

"What was that!" shrieked a teenage girl.

Simon and Clary looked at each other. Should they check it out? Is it safe to? They had their question answered for them when Izzy barged through the crowd to get to the front of a wide rink around a Mother kneeling by a small boy.

"He's dead! she sobbed. "He got hit by a piece of ceiling tile and now he's dead." She flung herself over the boys beady, still crying.

What's happening thought  Clary. Why is everything going to wrong today?
