(Ashlynn's pov)
"Dad?" Jace asks and helps Michael up
"Son." Michael says as he and Jace hug.
"Oh, Jace. I can't believe it. Son, you're hurt. How did you find me?" Michael asks us.
"You're dead. Valentine killed you. Valetine's Valentine's here." Jace says panicked
"No, Jace. It's me." Michael tells him, Thomas Clary and I walk closer and Michael turns to us
"I'm Michael Wayland. I'm Jace's father. Look, I know what Jace told you, but I've been here for ten years. Valentine took off and left me." Michael tells us
"And Jocelyn Fairchild?" Clary asks
"He took her with him. You are?" Michael asks us
"I'm Ashlynn, it's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Wayland, this is Thomas." I tell him and point to Thomas who's focased on Clary.
"I'm Clary, her daughter. Meliorn, the Seelie, told me that he was here with her." Clary tells him, Jace falls as I grab him
"Jace, no! It's Ravener venom. He kept telling us he was all right." I tell Michael as Jace rests on me.
"We have to find Clary's father, not my father. Valentine's-" Jace says before losing air.
"His stele. Where is it?" Michael asks us
"Uh back pocket." I tell him
"Back pocket. Got it." Michael grabs it and tries to use the rune to heal
"What's wrong?" Clary asks him
"The rune is weak." Michael tells her
"Ravener venom must be spreading. We have to get him help. We- we closed the Portal." I says starting to panic, before suggesting that I could create one Michael stops me.
"Valentine's got a standing Portal. Let's go." He says to us and we start walking. Michael helps me hold Jace as we walk.
"Hey, Jace, stay with me. Hey. Do you remember our first demon fight? We were way out past the Institute, way up at Kinshasa. You were only eight, but you were so brave. Do you remember what you said?" Michael asks him
"I'm ready to die." Jace responds
"And then I said, "Sometimes it's as brave to live as it is to die. Do you remember?" Michael asks again
"I do. It's true. It's you." Jace says to him, they both smile.
"Let's go." Michael says to us and Clary grabs mine and Thomas' hand and transports us.
(Pipers pov)
"All I know is, we gotta get you two out of here. All right, who do we know in Idris?" Alec asks us
"The only people who care are Mom and Dad. But they're under suspicion themselves." Izzy reminds him
"Uh, what about Lydia?" Alec suggests
"Lydia?" I ask him
"Yeah." Alec says
"Why do you keep going there? She is prosecuting us. You said she had no choice." Izzy says to him
"She doesn't." Alec confirms
"Everyone has a choice, Alec. We made ours. Let me just get through this without losing my self-respect." Izzy says to him
"Look, I know you don't want to believe this, but Lydia said she would help if we can give her a way to do it. Maybe I can get her to delay the trial." Alec says to us
"Why? So we can sit here, playing computer solitaire, while they find something else to blame us for?" Izzy tells him
"We're just a scapegoat to the Clave. They want the Cup." I remind him
