THE CAR EVENTUALLY pulled up by the docks while Simon and Clary were beginning to realize that they were being kidnapped not arrested.

"Where are we? This isn't the police station." Clary stated.

"Just cooperate and everything will be fine." The guy said. "Get out." He demanded as the man growled as he grabbed Natalie's arm and yanked her out of the car.

"We didn't do anything wrong." Simon spoke up.

"Quiet or you're gonna make this worse for yourself." The man warned Simon as he grabbed him with one arm and grabbed Natalie with his other.

"You're not a cop." Clary stated.

"Alaric, who is this guy?" The red head asked the guy holding onto her arm.

"Clary, you know this guy?" Natalie asked.

"Yeah, he works with my step dad." The red head replied.

"Shut up." The man growled into Natalie's ear as he shoved her forward to walk faster.

"Luke's calling," Alaric said as he took out his phone.

"Ignore it. That's an order." The man demanded as Alaric put his phone back into his pocket.

"Are you guys with Luke? Did he send you?" Clary asked.

"None of your business." The man replied as he opened a door into an old Chinese restaurant with their hands still handcuffed.

"Why do I keep getting kidnapped?" Simon asked.

"Not to be self centered but I think it's me they're after." Clary replied as Natalie rolled her eyes.

"Will you two shut up?" Nat snapped at the two as the three of them were pushed down on to as they were sat on the opposite side of the man and Alaric.

"What is going on? Alaric did you arrest us for trespassing or something because newsflash I was in my own apartment." Clary retorted, beginning to get a bit frustrated.

"We just wanna have a conversation, that's all," the man said.

"You always handcuff people you wanna talk to?" Simon asked sarcastically.

"This guy's funny, I like funny," the man stated, pointing at Simon.

"Look, I know you're scared of Luke. He's trying to find you so he can keep you safe, you just need to tell us where the mortal cup is." Alaric said softly to Clary.

"She doesn't have the freaking cup, and neither do we!" Natalie exclaimed.

"Everyone thinks I can find this cup, but I don't know where it is." Clary added.

"Think Clary. I'm trying to give you chance."

"I can't help you I'm sorry now will you please let us go?" Clary asked harshly but it just caused the other man to stab a fork into the table.
