Izzy was running up the steps. She had to beat Jace here so she could warn Alec and Magnus. She rang the bell a few times but known one answered. She turned to Simon who was leaning against his motorcycle his arms over his chest.

"I think their gone." She went down the steps and took out her phone. She dialed Jace's number.

"Their gone." Izzy

"Who are? Magnus?" Jace

"Yes 'Magnus' and Alec your parabatai" Izzy

"How do you know? Are you there?" Jace

"Yes." Izzy

"Meet me at the Institute. Let's just wait for her there." And with that Jace hung up. She spun on her heel.

"To the Institute." She said and hopped on her boyfriends bike. He just laughed and hopped on too. He started the engine and they rode of.

Clary was frozen, she couldn't breath, couldn't move, couldn't speak. She was shocked by who stood before her. The person she thought was her attacker was the person who frightened her the most. She had dreamt of the old him, the one who wanted to burn down the hole world. The one who caused her great pain and great loss. He was the one that broke her, the old him broke her.

"Jonathan? W-W-What are y-y-you doing here? and how are you alive?" She was stuttering. Clary was wide eyed. She really couldn't believe that he was there in front of her. Clary scanned his body from head to toes she wanted to see if there was something to tell her that he wasn't there that it was a trick of the mind. But she found nothing to set her off.

"Clary! How I've missed you." He hugged her tight. His embrace was warm, lovable and caring. She pulled away a little not wanting to touch him that much. She didn't feel to comfortable with him touching her.

"I thought you were dead! How are you alive? How are you here?"

"I was, I died the day you ... stabbed me with the sword. That's all I remembered, until I woke up in the middle of a lake. I didn't know what was happening I just hurried out before I swallowed the water and drowned. I swam to the surface and gathered air. I looked around and saw that I was close to land. So I swam fast. I reached the surface and I just laid there, when I felt around my chest I found this."He was holding a familiar necklace. The Morgenstern ring. The one she threw away with his ashes in Lake Lynn. She looked at it and back at him her eyes wide with surprise. She was searching for words.

"Jonathan, The Clave and I burned you like other shadowhunters. I threw your ashes and that ring in Lake Lynn. Jace saw me throw you into that lake. I cried you. I mourned you. I thought you were dead." She was sad and outraged. If she had known that her dead brother was going to resuscitate she wouldn't have cried him so much.

"You threw me in Lake Lynn? Why not let them bury me with the suicidal shadowhunters?" Jonathan shrugged and leaned against the alley wall. He crossed his arms over his chest.

"Well I needed closure so I threw you in The Lake. I don't know why the Clave burned your body." Clary lied she didn't want to tell him they were making sure that he didn't come back somehow. Yet here he is alive.

"Your lying I can tell. They were making sure I died and stayed dead, right" He said it raising an eyebrow accusingly. Clary nodded as she sat down on the ground because her feet hurt from all the standing and walking. He slid down beside her and stayed silent.

"Jonathan? Why are you here?Why did you come to me? Why not mom or Zachariah?" She turned her he so she was looking at his right side of the face. She observed his hard set jaw and his pale skin. He looked okay to be just raised from dust. Literally.

"I don't know because your my family? And because I don't think Jocelyn would be comfortable with me being there." He was looking at the ground.

She raised her head and looked at the sky. The sun was slowly disappearing from the sky. It was beautiful. Clary yearned for her sketch pad and color pencils.

"I am part of your family. One question. Were are you staying?" She had just thought of that. Were was he staying was he eating, was he training.

"I found an apartment not far from here. It's down that street." He said pointing to the left, were there was a street with really tall buildings. " It's the red one. On the penthouse." He pointed to a tall building. She looked at hi wide eyed mouth a gape.

"You, are living there, in the penthouse? Were did you get the money?" HE turned his face away from hers and bit on his lower lip a thing Clary did when she was nervous or worried. She took hold of his jaw and turned his head to face hers. Their eyes meet and she looked very deep into them he did too.

"Tell me please. I am your sister after all." She pleaded hoping that heed herd it in her voice. He sighed.

"The owner of the building needed a person to fix stuff that broke inside the apartment. So I went there and asked for the job and he gave it to me with the job came the top floor of the building." She let go of his jaw and set her hands on her lap. She smiled.

"Thank you for trusting me and telling me. Jonathan, I need to tell you something very important,okay? I need you to take a deep breath and listen to me very carefully." Clary took a deep breath and let it out slowly. Jonathan had now idea what Clary was gonna tell him. He did as she asked and payed attention on what she was gonna say. Clary sighed and turned to her brother, felt tears in her eyes . She fought to keep them in and failed badly. The tears ran down her cheeks.

"Jonathan. I'm pregnant and theres a 50% chance that It's yours. I'm sorry. I so so sorry. I understand if you hate me right now. I kind of hate me too right now." She looked at the floor and sobbed. Jonathan turned her head to meet his and with his free hand wiped away her tears and smiled. He pulled her to him and hugged her while he rubbed her back.

She couldn't help it she broke down yet again and started sobbing. She pulled back a little and looked at her older brother how she knew little about.

"Why aren't you mad or sad or hating me? I ruined our lives." She said in between sobs. She wiped away tears.

"I'm not mad,sad or hating you and you didn't ruin our lives. I did. Well Sebastian did, but still he did not us, okay? Have a little faith maybe he isn't mine maybe he's Jace's. You never know what could happen." She nodded. He let go and stud up. He turned to her and offered her a hand she took it willingly and smiled.

" You guys hungry?" He still held her hand. She nodded. He smiled.

" Good 'cause I know just the place." They exited the alley and headed to the streets. Jonathan hailed a cab and they got in.
