We stood still outside of the church and I watched as Clarys eyes closed as if she was thinking about her decision 

"Clary. Clary, come on. We gotta go." Simon states urgently now trying to pull at her jacket. Well technically my jacket. Actually my favourite jacket that I would be very pissed if he ripped.

"Simon, I think Jace can help us." Clary whispers and she looks over at me "You trust me Rei?" she whispers and I sigh 

"I mean someones gotta make sure you're okay" I state before I hear Simons screech from behind me 

"What?" he cries and I sigh before grabbing his arm 

"Come on." I state as I drag Simon after Clary and the blonde man 

"How do we know this Mick Jagger-looking guy is even gonna try-" Simon begins 

"Mundane, we do not have the time." The blonde man growls and Clary sighs 

"Come on, Simon. Let's go." she whispers as she takes Simons hand from mine and I follow the blonde man who walks into the church. It looked just as dark and abandoned as the outside and I watch as the man burns what looks like another tattoo onto his body. I look over at him in disgust but he catches me looking 

"I'm Jace" he states while continuing to burn his skin

"Reign" I whisper and he nods

"What the?" Simon says as I look over at him he looks frightened 

"I know. Trust me." Clary whispers to him 

"He's, like, burning himself." Simon states but before I could add any comment,  I feel a strong hand grip mine and I look up at Jace who just raises an eyebrow as if challenging me to pull away 

"Buddy, what's going on, man? I'm not your type, man. I don't even..."" Simon begins and I look over to see that Jace has grabbed Simons hand as well but before I could burst out laughing I turned back to see that the Church was no longer present but in it's place stood a high tech room filled with people 

"Where are we? What the hell? Clary, is there a war going on that I don't know about?" Simon cries looking around 

"There is now." Jace states leading us forward 

"I think my mother's at the center of it." Clary whispers to me and I take a step forward following her 

" You coming?" I ask as I turn around to see Simon standing in shock 

"Yeah. What is this place? There's a lot of gear in here. What'd they do, rob a tech shop? So this cold-blooded killer is gonna help us?" Simon gapes as we reach a computer or something where Jace starts tapping the screen 

"He's not a killer. He's protecting us." Clary states 

"Specifically, you, and Reign obviously It's sort of our thing." Jace says as he looks over at me with a fliratious smirk

"Your thing? You guys have a thing?" Simon says turning to me and I hold my hands up in surrender shaking my head 

"I don't know him" I state 

"He means a Shadowhunter thing. That's what they do, protecting humans from demons." Clary explains and I shake my head still confused 

"Demons, right. That makes perfect sense, 'cause there are demons running all around New York." Simon says with a laugh 

"That is the first correct thing you've said all day." Jace says without breaking eye contact from the screen and I tilt my head in disbelief. Jace does some things on the computer touch screen before a camera shows policemen in front of the church.
