It was Alec who spoke first. "What's this?" he demanded, looking from Clary to his companions, as if they might know what she was doing there. "It's a girl," Jace said, recovering his composure. "Surely you've seen girls before, Alec. Your sister Isabelle is one." He took a step closer to Clary, squinting as if he couldn't quite believe what he was seeing. "A mundie girl," he said, half to himself. "And she can see us." "Of course I can see you," Clary said. "I'm not blind, you know." "Oh, but you are," said Jace, bending to pick up his knife. "You just don't know it." He straightened up. "You'd better get out of here, if you know what's good for you." "I'm not going anywhere," Clary said. "If I do, you'll kill him." She pointed at the boy with the blue hair. "That's true," admitted Jace, twirling the knife between his fingers. "What do you care if I kill him or not?" "Be-because --" Clary spluttered. "You can't just go around killing people." "You're right," said Jace. "You can't go around killing people." He pointed at the boy with blue hair, whose eyes were slitted. Clary wondered if he'd fainted. "That's not a person, little girl. It may look like a person and talk like a person and maybe even bleed like a person. But it's a monster."

Meeting Magnus Bane

So one thing I forgot to tell you guys about the other night was that my neighbor had a clue to my mother. She said a warlock by the name of Magnus Bane would be able to tell me more about what had happened to my mother and how I might be able to find her. Once Jace and I got back to the institution Isabella asked us if we wanted to go to a party tonight hosted by a guy with the last name of Bane. So we decided to go because what are the chances that just anyone would happen to have the same last name. I didn't have any clothes to wear to the party because they had all been destroyed with my house. so Isabella let me barrow some of hers. She gave me a short black dress with boots and pinned my hair up. Lets just say I'm not fit to live the pretty person type of life. The dress was so tight I thought it was going to suffocate me. Not to mention I thought I was showing way to much skin. When it was time leave Jace  looked me up and down and smiled while simon practically told me to go change. But of course I couldn't because this is all the clothes Isabella would let me wear. When we got to the party I noticed it wasn't any normal party, it was a party full of down worlders. Vampires, fairies, werwolves, all of it. To get in to the party was the hard part, finding Magnus Bane was easy. As soon as we were let in by the "security" he practically introduced himself. He walked right up to me and said that the only reason he finally let us in was because of me and "That handsome guy" (Alec). So far I've been told my mother has been bringing me to him since I was young to erase my memories and to block out seeing the immortal world. And that my mother is probably safe with Valentine for now until we come up some sort of plan to find him. I've got to go but I'll post again soon!
