"What did you find?" Sebastian asked.

"The box that my mom used to keep Jonathan's things in." Clary answered.

"It was right where we found Max." Alyssa said.

"I remember Max had his eyes on it. He was so determined to prove himself. How did we miss it?" Alec said, looking at Alyssa.

"We were kinda focused on Max." She replied to him.

"It's possible that he found a way to use the box to track Jonathan." Jace suggested, but Alyssa shook her head to disagree.

"No, I already told you, since the box never actually belonged to him, it can't lead to him." She said.

Just then Antonio walked over. "Or maybe he found something in the box that he used to track the bastard." He said. "Something that we might have missed since we were only looking for the obvious visible things. The kid was very determined and smart."

"Wait, all of this would mean that Jonathan found a way to get inside the Institute without us even knowing." Sebastian said. Both Alyssa and Alec shared a discreet look.

"Well, he's Valentine's son. We were trained to do the impossible." Jace said matter of factly.

"If Jonathan attacked Max and came for the Mirror..." Clary began to say.

"He wouldn't have left here without it." Alyssa finished for her. "He's still in the building."

"Listen, we have to confirm that he's still inside." Alec said.

"Clary and Jace have already seen what the real Jonathan looks like. He'll be glamored as one of our own." Antonio pointed out.

"Hiding in plain sight," Clary added.

"That's enough for me. Alec, initiate an immediate lockdown on the Institute. No one goes in or out without our say-so." Alyssa said in a commanding tone.

"Yeah. Hey, Sebastian, I want you and any other personnel on supplemental guard duty." Alec said, then walked away with everyone else. But Sebastian called him back.

"Wait, wait. We'll need to fortify security outside as well. I can spearhead that team." He offered.

"No, Lyssa and I have that covered. If Jonathan's still in the building, he's not getting out alive." Alec said, before he walked away.

Alyssa, who had been watching the interaction, smirked internally before Alec joined her and they walked away.

They got to the hallway before she spoke. "He's panicking."

"He should be. He will pay for what he did to Max." Alec seethed. Antonio walked over to them, looking around to check if there were any eavesdroppers.

"Allie, I did what you asked. I couldn't pinpoint who it was, but I can say that the energy I felt is the same as the one that was in the cabin in Idris." He informed her.

"I thought as much."

"I'm sorry? Fill me in here? What energy are you talking about?" Alec said, looking at the two friends in confusion. Alyssa rolled her eyes in annoyance and hit Antonio on the arm, making him yelp slightly.

"You still haven't told him?" The French Shadowhunter shrugged, rubbing his arm with a pout. "Unbelievable. Antonio is sort of a clairvoyant, for lack of a better term to describe his abilities.

He can tell you what happened at a certain scene. In other words, take him to a crime scene or a place where an attack or a fight has happened, and he can tell you what happened and who or what was involved.
