      Clary gasped as she stood in her kitchen, she looked around realizing she was in this alternate universe. She turned and saw Valentine walking toward her, she grabbed a butter knife protecting herself.
"Where's my mother?" Clary yelled

Valentine laughed confused.
"Is this for one of your cosplay skits? Uh, honey? Come in here, you gotta see this. No seriously, you have to let me come with you, just once, okay? I want to see what you do with these things, okay?" Valentine said

"Val, you're not allowed to do cosplay. You stick out like a sore thumb." Jocelyn said

He walked up as Jocelyn walked out, toward her.

"Mom." Clary said

She ran up hugging her mom, as Jocelyn stood confused.

"Wow, if you miss us this much, you should really leave the dorm room more often." Jocelyn said
Clary stared at her confused, realizing a different universe.

"Right, sorry." Clary said

Clary walked toward the easel, looking at one of her mother's paintings. It was signed by Jocelyn Morgenstern.

"Clary, in honor of your father's mad hatter party." Jocelyn said
Valentine laughed

"Your mom made waffles for you. Come on kiddo, you gotta eat something right?" Valentine asked

Clary sat down to eat with her "family" when her father leaned back in his chair.

"So Clarissa, when do I get to meet this new man in your life, hmm?" Valentine asked

"Val..." Jocelyn hissed

"What? I have to...give my stamp of approval, right?" He asked

"Oh Clary, look at this commercial, it's hilarious." her mother said

Clary turned back looking at the tv.

"And almost broke when The Banes helped me figure out what I was supposed to do with my life. Now?" Hodge's voice said

Hodges did a spin-kick talking about a dojo.

"After being mauled by a suspect's dog, The Banes helped me realize that maybe the police force wasn't my calling. So I opened up a rare bookstore, now I'm doing what I love." Luke said

"Thank you, The Banes." Hodge and Luke said

Magnolia and Magnus pop onto the screen, with giant smiles dressed the complete opposite of what they usually wear.

"Hi, We're the Banes." They said

"Father and Daughter duo," Magnolia added

"Come in today for a tarot card and psychic reading." Magnus said

"We'll help you find your way." Magnolia said staring into the camera

"I have to go." Clary said
"I thought you were spending the morning with us." Valentine said

"I have a last minute assignment due that I haven't even started yet, so.. I gotta go." Clary said racing out

"Well, we'll see you tonight right?" he asked

"Clarissa?" He yelled 

         Clary was walking around several food trucks on her phone, when a hand grabbed her.

"Hey, where have you've been? We've been texting you for like twenty minutes." Simon said
"Simon, get out of the sun." Clary said shoving him

"Hey what the hell?" Simon said
Clary realizing what she had done, looked back at him.
