Chapter 1: The son of the Devil

Clary

"Come on Clary I know you can hit harder than that" Jace said to me while wiping the sweat off his forehead. I gazed at him angrily getting back on my feet.

"I'm trying you asshat, sorry I wasn't born into the shadowhunter lifestyle like you were"

"Asshat?" Jace said laughing "only you can make a somewhat insult sound like a kitten trying to be a lion"

I walked to him grabbing his hand and pulling him down and kissed his lips. I felt him smile against my lips and I smiled back. "come" he said pulling me out of the training room of the institute. I looked at him puzzling but I didn't question him. Jace took her outside the institute, Clary could hear the sounds of cars honking their horns and the voices of new Yorkers. And the pouring rain falling on them.

"Why did you bring me out here Jace?"

He didn't say anything, he just brought his face to mine and kissed me. It felt like fireworks were igniting inside of me, Jace deepened our kiss, kissing me as if it was the last time he would ever kiss me.

"Promise me" I said between our kisses.

"Promise what Clary?"

"Promise me this is forever. You and me. Clary and Jace."

"Clary, I swear by the angel this is forever." He told me while pressing his lips on my forehead.

"Well well well," an unknown voice spoke "Isn't this romantic." Both me and Jace turned around and saw Sebastian walking slowly toward us. But he wasn't alone, he had Max.

"Jace! Clary" yelled Alec with Izzy, Robert, and Maryse running out of the institute. "Have you seen Max! He-" Alec stopped midsentence when he saw Sabastian walking with Max by his side.

"Get the fuck away from my son you monster" Maryse yelled. Sabastian smiled at everyone till his smile landed on Clary's face.

"I would love to get away from your brat," Sebastian said to Maryse, "but for only one condition. A red curly hair condition."

"Over my dead body" Jace said in a threating voice.

Sebastian laughed "maybe not yours brother, but maybe over the body of little Max's." And that's when he brought the knife to Max's neck and blood started spilling from a small cut. Max cried out in pain. "Clary" said Sebastian "if you come with me right now, I won't kill little Max. But, if you ever try to escape me I will kill everyone you know and love. Starting will little Max" then he glaced at Jace "and ending with him and I'll make you watch as I kill them all." Jace gripped my hand, hard, and when i didn't answer he started pressing the knife harder on Max's throat. He cried out even louder.

"No, no, NO. STOP IT! PLEASE! I'LL GO WITH YOU. PLEASE LEAVE HIM ALONE" I yelled. Sebastian pulled the knife away from Max's neck, smiled, and extended his hand toward me. "Clary no" Jace said pulling me back. I looked back at him. Meeting his sad eyes.

"I have to Jace, he'll kill Max. Your little brother. Let me do this I know you'll find me" I pulled my hand away from his. And started walking toward Sabastian. My demonic older brother. The son of the devil himself.

"I'll find you" Jace said looking deep in my eyes. I gave him a sad smiled, and pulled my hand away from his. I faced Sabastian and as soon as I was by his side he lets Max go and he ran into Alec's arms. Alec took out his stele and drew iratze on Max's neck. "Thank you, Clary," said Maryse said while all the lightwood hugged each other.

"I'm glad you choose right, Clarissa" Sabastian said as he grabbed my hand. Then suddenly a portal appeared I turned around to face Jace one more time.

'Forever' I mouthed to him with tears running down my face.

'Forever' he mouths back with one tear falling down his face.

Then I stepped through the portal, facing an unknown future.
