Just so that it's clear this is all my own writing of the chapter. It would also change the storyline for the next book. So Yeah enjoy my chapter re-write of chapter 21 Raising Hell.

———————————————————————————

Clary looked around, the evening was beautiful, stars in the sky, and the wind blowing softly. Clary's eyes met Amatis's, they matched her brother's perfectly. A soft blue. They stared into each other's eyes for a moment, not sure what to do. But Amatis broke apart trying to get away from Cartwright, she struggled tried to fight him, but no luck happened. He kept her tight in his arms.

Sebastian strode towards them, holding the infernal cup. A dark smile settled on his lips. Once he got up to them he took Amatis by the jaw, she struggled to get away from him, but he shoved the blood of Lilith down her throat. Amatis made a gagging sound, trying to spit the thick, dark, liquid out of her stomach. But it was too late.

She started changing, loud wails exploding from her mouth, the screams making the ones around Clary wince. Sebastian ordered Cartwright to let go of her. She raised herself off the floor, in a swift movement, and took a few steps closer to Sebastian. Clary hoped that Amatis would get a hold of herself. That she would put Sebastian to death, but she knew that mustn't happen or else Jace would also die, and Jace was the whole reason Clary was here, to help him get away from Sebastian, to save him.

Amatis bowed down to Sebastian and said, "What can I do for you master?".

"Fight Cartwright." started Sebastian.

"But master-" interrupted Cartwright.

"Well, shouldn't you be able to beat her, after all, she is just an old woman. Fight him Amatis."

Clary starred as Amatis charged at Cartwright, her leg kicking into his chest. Cartwright fought back, punching, and kicking, but after a while of fighting Amatis picked him up and threw him to ground, pebbles flying up everywhere. He groaned and flipped over to the sky. A frown settled on his lips.

"And that ladies and gentlemen is what happens when you drink from the infernal cup, you can become faster and stronger than the week Nephilim you are now." Sebastian paused as if to give it a moment to sink in. "Who's next?"

"Me." Cartwright had seemed to get up during Sebastian's speech. He walked towards Sebastian, careful not to look Amatis in the eyes. A line formed behind him, they all charged forward and took sips from the cup.

Jace had let his hand slip from Clary's mouth, but it was no use, her throat was sore from all the screaming she has done earlier. She looked up to Jace's face and down to his hand that held her in a bridal position. She knew this wasn't the real Jace, that he has just been possessed by a fake. He still looked the same, the same sharp jawline, same golden hair. She had to remind herself every time that it wasn't him, that the real him was trapped inside that body, unable to do anything but watch.

She thought back to the time when the mark on his body was damaged so he turned back into himself. He had said how much he hated seeing Clary with the other him, that the one that wasn't him at all. He tried to give himself up to the clave but Clary called Sebastian into the room to make sure Jace wouldn't get hurt. She was sure he was mad at her, that she would get a firm lecture from him after she saved him... if she saved him.
