The Mortal Instruments: City Of Lies (SEBASTIAN)

Chapter 9

Issue after issue they finally found out where Valentine could be, the fragment of the glass exposed the city of Alicante, they all made their way behind the church, branches grew together, the gentle breeze making the trees dance, the space filled with smoke.

Everyone stood in front of the glistening portal that made its way to the beautiful, breath taking city Alicante. She was last to go through, she pushed herself in and felt the indescribable feeling, she made a soft land on the concrete floor, the warm air welcomed her, hugging her as a friend, the cobbled roads lead its way to familiar institute, Aline lived there, she remembered seeing her once when she played around the grassy fields somewhere hidden behind the woods.

The institute was much bigger than the one back home, she was back home to be exact, the laughter of her childhood filled the air. She saw everyone making their way towards it, she followed the hunched bodies, wearing black in this hot summers day, she noticed Jace slowing down, she jogged a bit to catch up, she held his slender arms, making him stop and turn.

"I want to walk around just say I'll see them soon, tell Simon I'll check on him later okay?" she said and smiled.

"Yeh sure I'll tell them you had to do something, but don't forget to check on him, you know how he is with his temper", he smiled back and ruffled her already messy black hair, she ducked down and laughed, Jace had ran to catch up with the rest, she stood watching them walk further, she put her hood up and hid her face, she walked the familiar roads leading to the edge of the forest, she looked up seeing the leaves hide the sunlight, beams of light escaped here and there, the rustling of little feet was heard here and there, she walked beyond the streets, the muddy floor made her slip here and there, but shadow hunter reflexes stopped her from falling onto the floor, she spent hours walking the muddy floor and finally came to the building, it was burnt down now, only few pieces of the house was left, the road towards the house was untouched, there was a whole story behind this, Clary's mothers story to be exact, people thought her brother died but little did they know he was still alive, ivy made its way across the concrete, hiding the muddy dull colour, she walked further, the rumble underneath crunched under her foot she stood in the middle, the top exposed to the sunny Alicante, burnt wood rested on the ground, she went to a corner and kneeled down, she remembered this place while living here, her and Jonathon now known as Sebastian would come here, and sit here for long hours until they were bored out with life.

The sharp shards of rocks echoed in the almost built room, and she spun around, seeing a figure standing there, he pulled his hood back showing his face exposing the charcoal black hair, it wasn't real to be exact she missed seeing the platinum blonde hair but it was Jonathon, standing a few meters away, anger boiled inside of her, and sadness swept her away, she stood and walked towards him, punching his chest in anger, he pulled her to a hug and rested his head upon hers, he knew he made her wait for too long, but as a story goes on it never goes to plan, she looked up to his face, he placed a kiss against her plump, rosy lips, she tip toed to reach his height while his slim hands trailed down her back, he gently held her waist, he pulled her closer as their lips fit perfectly, they kissed in sync, while the sun lit sky became more darker, exposing the stars, she pulled apart and slapped him, crossing her arms against her chest she stood away waiting to get a answer. He smirked as he watched the petite girl being mad, he for sure missed seeing this.

"There's a new plan, you play a big part, from now just keep calling me Sebastian, and pretend not to know me, I'll be living under the same roof, but just go with it, by the end we both would be free from Valentine, just go home now, I'll meet you there" he answered, and disappeared within a blink of an eye.
