Clary P.O.V:

1 Year later:

Yesterday it was two years since Samara died. They still haven't talked about her again since that day. Things have been good for us in this last year.

I found my mother and woke her up, figured out Jace isn't really my brother, killed Valentine and got the Mortal Cup back. Oh and Izzie almost married someone to restore her family's honor when at the last second Alec told her Sam would disapprove, his excact words were "She wouldn't have let you do this." and she choose her own happiness rather than her family's honor.

I finally decide that I'm going to the mall for some me time. Standing up from my bed I go look for the others too let them know I'm going out. I find Izzie first.

"Izzie!" I yell for her and she spins around.

"Hey Clary, everything alright?" She asks and I smile at her concern.

"Yeah, I'm all good just wanted to say I need some alone time and I'm going to the mall. So I figured I should tell someone and not just go."

"Smart choice. Okay I'll tell the others if they ask." She answers and smiles in understanding.

"Thank you, Izzie"

"Anytime. Just be careful, okay?"

"Okay, I promise." And with that promise I walk out of the institute.

°~°~°~°

Three hours later I am finish shopping. I am walking around the streets of New York City when I hear screaming coming from and alley.

I take off running towards the screaming. I see a demon over a woman ready to kill her. I take out my seraph blade and run towards him. I stab him in the back killing him.

I look back at the woman so she her sitting on the ground crying with her knees pulled up to her chest, arms around her legs, face down. Poor woman, must be hard.

"Hey, you're safe now." I say crouching down to her level.

"No, I'm not. I see these things everywhere. I saw a man with cat eyes and a woman with fangs the other night at a club and I keep on seeing people with weird symbols on them." She mumbles while crying, still not looking at me. I realize that this mundane has the sight and if one demons after her others will be too.

"Look I promise you I won't let you get hurt. Why don't you come with me to a safe place?" I say thinking about taking her to the institute. Of course I'll have to deal with Alec but oh well. I'm not letting this mundane on her own.

"Okay" she says while looking up at me for the first time and i get a good look at her. Blonde hair, blue eyes. Huh, she looks really fimiliar. Wait a second, she looks like-

"Holy shit" I say shocked. Impossible, she's dead. They told me themselves. Their runes are faded and everything. And yet here she is, a little older but still.

"What?" She asks pulling me out of my shocked state.

"Sorry, nothing. I never got your name." I try to play it off.

"Well, uh, I only have a first name so yeah. Anyway it's Samara but I like to be called Sam. And you are?" She answers and I'm sure I look as pale as a ghost right now. I am curious about what she said.

"I'm Clary Fairchild. Let's get out of this alley and go a cafe where you can tell me why you only have a first name." I tell her and she nods.

I need to figure out if it's really her before I take her to the institute.

°~°~°~°

Fifteen minutes later we were both seated in a cafe with coffee in from of us waiting for our food. We sat in silence but my curiosity finally got the best of me.

"So why do you only have a first name?" I ask and she sighs.

"It's a little crazy ok? So don't laugh." She says seriously.

"Remember that thing back there in the alley? I hunt and kill them for a living so whatever it is it can't be that crazy." I say and she smiles, in relief.

"Okay. So about six months ago I woke up in a coffin in a tomb. I know it sounds crazy but I swear it happened. I opened the coffin, which wasn't locked, and I climbed out. On top of the coffin the name Samara was engraved so I just assumed that was my name. And before you ask, no. No, I don't have any memories and it's driving me crazy. Not knowing who I am and knowing I have a family and friends out there but I can't remember them." By the time she is finished we both have tears staining our faces. In that moment I realize that I have to take her to the institute. I stand up and hug her.

After our tears are dried I decide it's time to go.

"Remember that safe place I told you about?" She nods yes.

"We can go there now."

"Okay"

Oh may the angel give me strenght for what I'm about to do.

°~°~°~°

Later that afternoon I snuck Sam into the institute and into my room, I told her to stay put.

I am currently looking for Alec, Jace and Izzie. I am so nervous but at the same time excited. I know she doesn't remember but we can fix that.

I have looked in their rooms, the main room and the training room. I am making my way to the kitchen when suddenly I hear a booming laugh which I identify and Jace's. I quicken my pace and enter the kitchen.

I see a red-faced Jace clutching his stomach and Izzie glaring daggers at a widely grinning Alec.

"Uh, guys I uh, I have something important to tell you." Jace stops laughing, Alec's grin fades and Izzie's daggers stops at my serious tone.

"What's wrong?" Jace asks.

"I brought someone to the institute. She's in my room-"

"YOU WHAT?!?!" A very furious Alec cuts me of.

"Look just hear me out." I try to reason with him.

"No. Are you crazy?!??!" He questions me.

"You know what don't answer that. Who is the girl?" He says stil fuming.

"I found her in an alley being atttacked by demons an-" I start only to get cut off again.

"YOU BROUGHT A MUNDANE INTO THE INSTITUTE?!?! Ok, now i'm sure your crazy." By now I can practially see the steam coming out of Alec's ears.

"She leaves. Now." He says through gritted teeth and turns around walking out of the kicthen.

"Alec, wait" I say but cut myself off when I see he's walking to my room. Oh no, he's gonna ruin everything

"Alec stop" No response.

"Alec please" Still no response.

I give up realizing he isn't stoping. I finally notice Jace and Izzie behind me. Great, just great.
Alec reaches my room barges in and looks around.

"Where is she?" Alec asks, well more like demand. I sigh and call out.

"You can come out now."

I see Sam step out of the bathroom. Alec turns around and the second he lays his eyes on her, he froze.
