Chapter 20: shipwreck

Piper and the gang knew that they needed to work fast since it was clear that Valentine had been planning this for a while and was likely to go through with his plan as quickly as he could to prevent anyone from stopping which is why Piper raced to her room to changed into a black sweater that hung off her shoulders showing her black lace bra, a pair of black leather leggings, a pair of black combat boots and a leather jacket so that she was more appropriate dressed like a shadowhunter ready for a fight. She also decided to throw her hair up in a messy high ponytail to keep it out of her way since it was clear that this was going to get messy, she also wore dark smoky eye makeup with dark dusty pink lipstick. Once Piper was ready, she quickly headed to the weapons room to grab her seraph blades and some extra weapons in case she needed them as she thought about her she was going no matter whether the Clave approved or not. They had all agreed to meet at the prier where they knew Valentine was due to Jace's midnight visit to Valentine as they were quickly joined by Luke and Magnus who wanted to help out as well.

" so what is the plan? I mean you have a plan right?" Clary said slightly frantic as she tried not to think about what Valentine could be doing to her best friend as she tried to look to her sister for support

" kinda...I'm going to go to Valentine's ship and distract him while you and Jace rescue Maia and Simon, the rest of you can run interference with the many bad guys we'll met" Piper said eerily calm

" that's not a plan, that's a suicide mission" Alec said looking to Jace who was clenching his jaw clearly trying not to react as he thought about this plan of her as Alec suddenly protective for his almost sister

" Valentine literally just told the Clave to kill you and you want to give him the chance to do it himself?" Izzy said knowing that there was no way that anyone of them were going to let her do this to herself

" if there was another way, don't you think I would do it? It has to be me, Clary is still learning and he's already shown that he doesn't care about the people I love" she said pointing out the facts for them

" and that means that you have to go play bait?" Jace said void of any emotion as he thought about what Valentine could do to her while she was serving herself up to him as a distraction as he looked at her

" I could do it, Valentine doesn't know me not really. He would underestimate me" Clary said trying to help her sister out since she knew that going back to their father was a bigger deal for Piper than for her

" and you're underestimating him, if I'm at my very best then maybe I can beat him. You won't, you're not experienced enough for him but he trained me, I know how he fights" she said almost darkly

" except that Valentine has one advantage over you and always will, he fights without fear and you do" Luke said gently knowing that he preferred to fight with fear than without as it was made them all human
