Clary's POV-

"Jonathan come back here! I'm gonna kill you for this!!" I screamed as I chased my older brother down the hallways, I caught up to him easily and jumped on his back, holding tightly as we fell to the ground, I put my arm around his neck and cut off his breathing until his face was purple, smirking evilly, that's when father came in. Well I'm in trouble.

"Clarissa! Let go of your brother! You are about to kill him!" He yelled, I slowly released Jonathan and stood up, "I'm sorry father, but he started it! And you always tell me, an eye for an eye and all that so i was just going off your training and then-" I was cut off by my father "Clarissa I'm sure what he did was not worth almost killing him! Come with me, Jonathan go and train, if your little sister can beat you, you clearly need to." 

"I was going easy on her!" Jonathan objected, his breathing still deep from regaining oxygen. Father just gave him a look and Jonathan bowed his head.

I smirk at Jonathan when father turns his back then scamper after him, not wanting to anger him further. He dragged me to a room I know only to well and sat me down in the chair in front of the desk, there was a piece of paper, a stele and a pen, "I need you to create a rune that will help me to transport anywhere quickly, no food until you do" well this shouldn't be to hard, father walked out and locked the door, I know he wanted something that would allow him to get into Alicante without being noticed, and that is when a rune came to mind, it was like the rune for the portal I had created not long ago, but with a line through the middle that flared out at the bottom end, this was the symbol for a portal that could be undetected, I decided to try it out before I showed father so I drew it on a wall and wrote a small note on the piece of paper saying I was testing it and jumped through the watery surface.

I was dumped in someone's bedroom, it looked so...ordinary.

It had dark blue walls filled with posters of manga, films and what looked like video games. There was a bed with blue covers and a wooden bedside table strewn with things, there was a few pictures of a boy that looked about my age and what looked like a mum and a sister. I assumed I was standing in the boys room. There were clothes on the floor and a pile of comics in the corner, as I walked over to them I heard the door squeak open and the boy from the pictures walked in, I froze as he walked past not looking my way, he picked something up and turned around and stared at me wide eyed, I had forgotten to glamour myself and I was gonna be in trouble when I get home. The boy had cute little glasses on and curly brown hair, with a dorky tshirt saying 'made in Brooklyn' "Uhh who are you? What are you doing here and how did I get into my room?"

Well this is interesting, "The answers to those questions are irrelevant, I'll tell you I am here by accident and plan on leaving as soon as I figure out where I have been taken" the boy looked taken aback by what I said, "Big words for a small girl, I'm Simon by the way."
I got angry, "I am not a little girl!" I yelled and tackled him to the ground,

"Where am I?"

"In a very awkward situation I would say, lying on top of a boy that you don't know in his room, which is in Brooklyn if that is what you are asking"

I thought about what Simon had said and climbed off him, "I'm Clary" we exchanged phone numbers for some reason, little did I know that me, Simon and even Jonathan would become good friends.

(Time warp- 1 year later)

Jonathan and I are going to see Simon today! He is in a band now with a guy called Eric and some others, the bands name keeps changing so I have no idea what it is now, I have stopped paying attention. We are meeting him at Java Jones.

Simon is kind of our only friend, me and my brother have always been secluded from people because everyone from our world thinks we are dead, so we have to be careful when we go out to meet Simon. Father said it shouldn't be for too much longer which I think is good because we will get to meet real live people! Not just fathers followers.

Father has also been spending more time with us and training us a lot harder because he pretended to die again and so the Herondale boy has gone to the New York institute.

Father sent him there because Simon lives in New York so when we go to see Simon, Father uses the special portal I made and checks on 'Jace'. He is another one of fathers experiments I guess, he is the gentler one. Even though Jace is less evil than me and especially Jonathan, Father says that he is still strong and that if we were to ever cross paths with him, to no underestimate him. Jonathan is the evil one and I am smack bang in the middle of him and Jace, just the way father wants so he puts extra pressure on me.  I have learned how to play multiple instruments, I can draw extremely well and I am one of the best shadowhunters, or have the potential to be, according to father. When we were younger, father would get in instructors to teach us things, but once he faked our deaths, he took our training up himself, he is much harsher than the others were. 

As me and Jonathan walk into Java Jones, we spot Simon and Jonathan runs up and jumps on him, squealing like a 7 year old, "Simon! Oh how I have missed you my dear!" Still with his legs wrapped around his waist, I swear they are the strangest ."Jonathan! You have finally arrived to rescue me! Oh my fair knight! Take this as a token of my gratitude!" As he picks up a napkin and gives it to Jonathan.

I then decide I want some of this and run up and latch onto Simon as well, "Simon my love, we have searched the 4 corners of the earth for you! And we finally meet once again!" He looks at me and smiles "Clarissa, my sweet! Would it have been more convenient to meet again in my bedroom?" I just laugh and jump down, "in your sweet little mundane dreams, my friend" yes Simon knew about our world and about our family, how could he not when we are this close. We trust Simon and he swore to never tell, he even sometimes came with us to the institute to check on Jace, who has grown pretty good looking over the years and also quite stubborn and closed off, I don't blame him. He thinks his father is dead, well he is but he never actually met the dead one, so he thinks the man that raised him is dead. After the three of us catch up we go to the institute and wait outside for father like usual just chatting, I have made a rune to glamour us invisible even to shadowhunters and made a special ring with the rune on it for Simon so he wouldn't look crazy to a passerby if he was talking to us. 

That's when a boy walked out of the front steps, about Jonathan's age, but with golden hair and eyes, he was quite attractive I guess, wait was that Jace? "Yes Clary it is Jace" Jonathan laughed, I said that out loud? "Well he has... grown, oh my, catch me" I said before dramatically falling into my brothers arms and putting the back of my palm to my forehead. I fluttered my eyes open, turned to Simon and said "are you an angel? Am I in heaven? Why would I be in heaven I clearly specified I didn't want to go to that dreadful place!" I fake outrage, that's when Jonathan points at Jace, "oh, now I don't mind heaven, leave me be... I'm just joking, I would never leave you alone in hell my darling brother."

I smirked at him and he narrowed his eyes at me, "Whatever" He dropped me onto the floor, like ouch.

That's when father walked out, he had the special rune as well, we decided to go back home, Jace was just angry again, it happens a lot recently. You would think that he would have demon blood with the amount of angst that boy has. But no, he is just hurt, Jonathan on the other hand, is a whole other story.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will explain in the next chapter what happened to Jocelyn but I was writing then it deleted it so I kinda forgot what I wrote so yah, sorry, but whatever. I'm going to skip afew years again to when they are about 15, I made Simon older so he would be the same age as Jonathan but he will turn into a vampire so he will stay 17 for a while anyways, hope you liked this chapter, love you all!
