Christmas: a TMI fanfic

Chapter 1

• based off of events that happened in City of Heavenly Fire •

Clary POV

"What just happened?" asked Alec as we watched Tessa Gray and Brother Zachariah drive away with Church looking at us through the window. The four of us looked at each other in shock.

"I think Brother Zachariah just stole our cat" (COHF) said Jace, as if it wasn't obvious enough.

"Did they forget anything of theirs here?" I ask, thinking I could use a tracking rune to find out where they are.

"I'll go look." said Izzy, impressively running in her six-inch heels.

"I looked around asked a few people and they didn't leave anything behind." Said Izzy, sounding disappointed and out of breath.

"Okay," I say, "does anyone know where they were going?"

"Magnus might!" Alec exclaims, and he takes off running, with me, Jace, and Izzy following.

"Do you think he just said Magnus knows just so he has an excuse to go over there?" Says Jace grinning. Izzy starts cracking up and I just laugh.

We run past my mom and Luke, and they look confused.

"Clary," my mom says, "slow down. Where are you going?"

"Mom, can't talk. Brother Zachariah stole the cat!" I say running by her. I turn around to see Luke cracking up and my mom looking at me like I was crazy. I grin at them and turn back around.

We catch up to Alec and see him and Magnus making out.

"Earth to Alec, please come back and help us find our cat, who has been my dear friend since I came to the institute." says Jace. Alec and Magnus jump away from each other when the realize we're there. Alec turns to Jace, then turns back to Magnus, who is glaring at Jace.

"Right, Magnus, do you know where Brother Zachariah was going?" Alec asks.

"Why do you want to know?" Magnus asks the four of us.

"Did you not hear me?" Jace asks, "Brother Zachariah TOOK. OUR. CAT."

"Well, unless A) Brother Zachariah brings him back, or B) Church finds his way home, I don't think you can get him back." Magnus states. Jace groans and walks away.

I catch up to him and hug him from behind. "Hey, what's wrong?" I ask.

"Nothing, I'm fantastic." says Jace, turning around.

"Your not." I tell him. "I know you want Church back."

"Do we have to talk about this right now?" he asks, looking actually sad.

"No, of course not," I kiss him. "Come on, let's go dance, I think it will make you feel better." He grins at me and I drag him to the tent, smiling.
