5 Clary's Story

>>Simons Pov<<

I heard voices bevor i saw anything. One of them was definitely my best Friend Clary. The unusual was she seemed nervous and my Clary is never nervous. I opened my eyes and saw that i was in clarys loft and i was laying on the couch in the living room. I was amused when i tought about all the time Clary and i we were on this couch. We had learned for abi and had played video games, were laughing or told stories. But one of my favorites is the fact that when ever we looked DVD, Clary had fallen asleep on my stomach, i hat looked at her and smoothed out her hair out of her face. But emerged from dods room she had watery eyes. Clary closed the door which led to dods room and laid for a moment her head on it. Then she gone in the kitchen and brought out a breakfast plate and with a smile headed to my position. I smiled at her but then i noticed marks on her body. I knew her since ten years and never ever had she marks but they doesn't looked new eather. It seems like clary picked up on my bewilderment because she asked. “Simon what's the matter?” She gave me the breakfast plate and it had all of my favorite breakfast food. “On your body are marks! How long was i unconscious and what happend?” i asked her. She looked down at the marks and then said “Si i must tell you something and please first listen and don't Interrupt and when i finished you can asked as many question as you want and be a angry. “all right?” She seemed nervous and tense. So i added “But Clary i could never be angry and i will always listen to you. You can tell me anything!” when i finished i began to eat my cheese breed. She declined her head and then began to tell me what it is what is troubling her during which she looked at me. “Simon i knew i never told you about my childhood and i knew you always found it strange but there is a reason behind it. But before i begin my story you must know that i am a Nephilim which is a sort of warrior which fights against demons, fairies, vampires, werewolves and wizards. All the stories about them are true. The Nephilims try to protect the humans which we call Mundies and many die in this task. You must also know that we Nephilim are hybrids with the blood of the archangel raziel's which makes us faster and stronger than Mundies and the blood of humans. Because we have angel blood we are able to draw runes which gives us all sorts of power, that's are the marks on my body. And you didn't see them because i am able to draw a rune which makes them invisible. It exist runes for vision and for speed as well healing and stamina. The runes are drawn with a pan a like thing which we call stele and it burned them in our skin. Some of them vanished again and some are permanent on our skin. But when i would draw a rune on you, you would become a mindless forsaken or would be dying. But it only happens when you do not have angel blood in your system. The angel which have drafted us has given us a place which is located on the side of germany, france and switzerland and is called Idris but it has only one big city named Alicante. I grew up there on the outer circle of the city and on the edge of the woods. The trues is my name is not Clarissa Fray it is really Clarissa Adele Morningstar. But this name is my undoing even till today. Like i say i lived at the edge of the woods with my Father and Brother because my Mother is dead but that i already told you. But unlike what i told you she was not on a car crash she died on a werewolf hunt. My brother is a year older but i was always stronger than him. We were homeschooled by our Father. He teaches us to fight, to dance, to play an instrument and many Languages even a few demon languages. I was happy with my life there even when i became a member of an organisation from my Father which is called Circle of Raziel it is a little like a sect which membership only ends with dead. It stands for the purity of the shadowhunter race and are against downworlders which is why they kill them without a reason. With ten years something happens which changed everything. My Father was on one of his errants an my brother and i were training when i heard a noise which is why my brother and I gone into our home and looked for the reason behind it. In the cellar i found a secret way to a laboratory and there i found cells which had prisoners even a angel. The angel told me what my Father had done to my Brother, another shadowhunter und myself before we were even born. When my mother was pregnant with my Brother , my father gave her demon blood which resulted in his eyes turning black. The other boys mother was given angelblood so the boy was the exact opposite of my brother. When my Mother was pregnant with me, my Father gave her both blood types that is why i am faster and stronger than the most shadowhunters. But there were side effects, threw the demon blood i have extreme mood swings and it is easy to anger me. When i became angry my eyes turn black like my brothers. Threw the angel blood i am able to draft and to strengthen runes which makes me incredibly powerful. When i had learned about all that i gone to my brother only to learn he knew about all of it. So i decided to leave my brother and father. I gone to my maternal grandparents but i knew my father would come and look for me so i thought i only need to hide long enough away from him. But one day i gone to Alicante and when i returned home the whole mansion was burning in demons flames. I decided to stay in the background and listen to the people around me. I found out that three corpses was found which were thought to be my grandparents and myself. And in that moment i decided that was my chance to hide away from my father because i was declared dead. I gone thru a portal and landed in the streets of New York. For a few days i lived on the streets but then Magnus found me and took me under his wing. He became my father and helped me to start a life as a mundie. He showed me that my father's words about the downworlders where nothing but wrong, spoken out of jealousy. Magnus himself is the highest Wizard of brooklyn. When i gone to school i let my runes vanish and there i found my first friend in my life. That friend was you Simon and over the time i thought about many times to tell you the truths but i was afraid you would end our friendship and also there was also the risc to be exposed and then you would be in danger and i didnt want that. And so the time flew by and with eighteen i bought together with dod this loft, she is also a Wizard. Dod and Magnus were the only one who knew the truth about me and the hid me and never spoken about me to others. But yesterday morning i encountered a few demons and killed them , but i was unaware that i had onlookers. On work then the intern which is a fairy invited my to a party this evening and have no other choice than to attend. And then yesterday evening when we were in the Pandemonium was when all things were going down. You must know that the Club is for mundies and people of the shadow word. In the Club there were a few shadowhunters which had seen me and a vampire had trank from you which was the reason why you got unconscious. I confronted the Vampire and i was really angry which is why my eyes turned black. Members of the Circle too saw me when i spoke to the vampire. I threatened the vampire and then wanted to look at you condition but the vampire attack and i fished her of. Then i brought you here and dod helped you with magic to reproduce blood. When you look at your neck you are able to see the bitt. The problem is my father is now aware of my position and the shadow world is looking for me. Now you knew everything!” she breathed in relief when she had finished. I was quite shocked, my breakfast was no more and forgotten and my thought drove wild. Before me sat Clary, my Clary the girl which i had fallen in love with seven years ago and i detected that all the time i knew as good as nothing about her. I was amazed that she told me about her childhood even when i am sure she had left out a few things, because there were a lot of pain in her eyes when she spoke about it. I was happy that she had finally told me, that she trusted me with it. I found the downworlders extremely cool, i mean i drew comics. And even that a Vampire had bitten me and i knew two people who are able to practise magic was extremely cool. I noticed i was deep in mind and decided to look her directly in her eyes. There i saw that she is frightened and that she waited for a response. So i answered her “ Clary that's really cool and i am not even angry. I am rather happy that you told me everything even when it took ten years to. You were and will always be my best friend and that will not change with the knowledge of your blood type. I will not tell you secret, of that you can be sure. And we will overcome the time a head, like always, together.”  she looked at me in amazement than she began to smile and i even saw her eyes water before she pulled me in a hug. Nothing had changed between us.
