I kneel towards him and check a pulse. I sigh in relief and tell Simon to pick him up. At first I couldn't move, I was surprised and scared and sad until I feel a warm hand on my cheek.

"Clary.....Clary please look at me.." I stare at those brown orbs, "..everything is gonna be okay..I need you to be strong....for me."  He waits for my answer. I didn't even know if my voice was still there, "..okay.." and Simon smiles. He reaches down and puts Augustus over his shoulder. We head over to the house.

Jace's P.O.V

I was half asleep when I reach over to my right and I don't feel my red head. I look over and the bed sheets are pulled off. I decided to find her.

I go downstairs and find Clary's and Simon's coats gone. I suddenly felt a flick of jealousy but I knew I had nothing to worry about. I was going up the stairs when I hear loud footsteps and yelling. I then hear the door being slammed hardly on the wall and run towards it.

I see Clary panting holding onto Simon, I was gonna hug Clary when I notice what was in Simon's arms. Augustus. My fist started to turn whiter than bones while I was tempted to throw his body.

"What the-" "Jace...please listen....I need to explain later...but now I need you to trust Simon and me... and help me heal him..please!" Simon and Clary shared a glance and then she looked at me. I realized she was crying and I nod.

"You guys take him to the beds." Clary nods and I help her carry him towards her room. I lay him down quickly on the bed and I have a better look at him. His face was bloody and bruised, his shirt had a cut on the sleeve, his jeans were stained red and so were his hands. I see Izzy come in with Magnus and Alec trailing behind.

"Do we really need to patch this bastard up?" asked Izzy exasperated. Clary rolls her eyes. "We have too..he might an explanation...and plus we are not like him." said Simon proudly. "...huh...give me some time" said Magnus. I decide to take Clary out the room.

"..Hey it's gonna be okay. I promise. everything will turn out fine." I said hugging her. "..it's just..I'm...this is...I'm still trying to process all of what's happening. And even after everything...out still hurts me seeing him like this...I can't" I cut her off with a kiss. She relaxes at my touch and I continue kissing her.

"..you gotta be kidding me! This is like the hundredth time I say this....Get A Room!" Our heads turn to see Izzy raising her hands exasperated. I laugh and Clary covers her face.

Clary's P.O.V

I felt tired but still sat up. I rio

began to worry why Magnus was taking too long. What was he doing? It scared me because it was almost sunrise. I then get up hearing the door open. I get up and walk towards Magnus.

"..how was it?..is he ok?... is he hurt?..Will he live and how bad is he?" millions of questions were going through my head. Magnus sighs, "..He's healing and will live...sadly ..but he still has a few things broken. But he has been asking for.....you."  That took me by surprise but nod.

Magnus led me to my room and I gasp at Augustus' condition. He was shirtless but with a bandage chest and bicep. Magnus had cleaned of his blood and now he had a scar on his leg and his face was purple. I looked at Magnus as a signal to leave.

I slowly walk towards him, still remembering the past. I try reaching for his hand when it moves and I flinch. "...C Clary.....is that you?" his voice sounded hoarse and weak. I reach for his hand. "...yeah it's me and you have a lot of explaining to do." I said.

He lets out a deep breathe, "I guess I do." He tried sitting up and I lean back in my chair. "Look Clary I know this must...be confusing....but first...I...need you to...trust me. please" he had pleading eyes. "I trust you" Then he lays down.

"I needed you to trust me because you won't believe me once I get started." I had a very confused look but he continued.

"It all started...when...your brother...Sebastian..."
