Clary was woken by the sound of thudding on the institute doors later on that day. Alec had informed the clave of what had happened, not wanting to take any chances with Jonathan a second time around. She peeled herself from her bed to find out what was going on. After she pieced together the small fragment of the puzzle earlier on they decided that it was best for her to try and get some proper sleep before anything else happened. As she shuffled through the long corridors her knees began to feel weak and she was forced to pause for a while what she regained her posture. Once she was ready she began shuffling again, trying to clear her head of the thought that her brother had done unspeakable things to her she knew he had once tried and didn't get very far back when she was living with him and Jace when he was brought back from the dead by Lilith. Slowly as she made her way toward the door she heard it shut and noises move toward the head's office.

Clary made herself look presentable and took a deep breath whilst stood outside the door. As she went to know the door opened.
"Yeah I'll go and get Clary now for you." Izzy said as she began to walk backward out of the door. As she turned she pulled her head around and stopped only millimeters away from Clary's face. Izzy jumped back slightly, covering her mouth with her hands and stiffening her legs together. After she composed herself again she began to speak.
"They're waiting for you in there. It doesn't look to good at the moment." She shook her head sorrowfully. Clary sighed and took another deep breath, entering the tense room.
Everyone stoped talking at stared at Clary as she came in, trying not scare her too much.
"Miss fairchild." Jia penhallow greeted in a calming manner, feeling the tension seeping from the young girl. Clary returned the gesture and stood by Alec at the opposite side of the room and let the meeting begin.
"Please sit down."

"It has came to our attention that your brother seems to have gone rogue. Again." Robert said, trying to break the tension, only adding to it.
"It appears that way inquisitor Lightwood." Clary stated quickly and clearly. "I-I don't know what happened to him."
Jia was the next to speak, trying to calm the girl.
"Just start with the part. What happened at the party Clary. We don't expect you to the us what went wrong but what you thought was happening we can fill in the rest with the truth of it." Clary explained what had happened without crying and surprising her in the process. Alec, Jace and Izzy both have their stories to and they all seemed to match up.
"He did a pretty good job of being have didn't he?" She muttered, clearly not enjoying this at all. "He could be the cause of that dead case earlier."
"To be fair consul penhallow, he did have a bold to Jace back when and audio tried to force himself upon me. That could explain some of this erratic behaviour." Clary tried to reason. Jia started that there was some demon blood left but only a small amount and it would be easy to destroy of Jonathan was willing to try. Of course Clary was up for saving her bother but there was a catch. If he did any more destruction that he will be punished by death in sight. If he tried to harm a shadowhunter whilst they attempt to bring him in then he died. He was basically on a death sentence. Clary reluctantly accepted to the terms and let the two get on with their work.

Knowing it's right and wanting it to be are very different things and Clary didn't want it to be right but knew what had to be done was what had to be done. She left to her room after the meeting and began to cry loudly into her pillow. There was a soft knock at the door and soon have was in the bed next to her. He placed and arm over Clary which she shrugged off and told him to leave because she wanted to be alone. The next time the site knocked it was Jocelyn. She came into the room and cuddled her daughter trying to calm her down.
"I know, I know." She lulled as chart gently feel asleep.
