Although Raphael told us not to talk to Camille. Clary, Simon, Izzy and I came up with a plan to talk to her without getting caught by any of the other vampires, the plan as agreed by everyone is reasonably simple. Izzy distracts Raphael while looking through Camilles things, I cause havoc in the of the hotel and Clary and Simon find Camille, Alec and Jace had to go back to the Institute so no one would get suspicious.
I head up the stairs already knowing how to distract all the vamps, i reach the roof of the Hotel and look around its nighttime so the vamps will be able to come outside, bingo.
I walk over to the demon powered motorbikes and get started on my plan, i push the bike closest to me towards the edge of the roof letting it tilt for a second before dropping down to the floor with a loud bang. I wait a couple of seconds but when no one comes to investigate i push another one over. There we go.
A vamp walks over to were the bikes are a lying in a ruined heap on the floor, he glances around for a few seconds before looking up and spotting me, he growls running into the Hotel hopefully to get some backup.
I quickly pushes push two more bikes over the edge leaving only one for me to make my escape with
"What are you doing?" The Vamp growls, i see at least 20 others behind him
"Just redecorating, I didn't think the colour of the bikes complimented the colour of the roof." I answer
"You are going to pay." I chick behind him hisses out
"And thats my cue to leave." I swing my leg over the remaining bike and rev the engine, i turn around to see the vampires running towards me. I start the bike and go flying off the edge, one of the vamps grabbed ahold of the back o i kick him in the face to get him off.
I turn back around one more time to see the vampires on the ground running after me, hopefully this gives Simon and Clary enough time,
The bike fricken flys which is amazing but i dont have enough time to enjoy the view because I look ahead to see the sun starting to rise, shit.
The vamps are reasonably far behind me so i land ungracfully and ditch the bike a couple of streets away from the Institute. I run all the way back not wanting to get caught.
"You okay?" Is the first thing Alec asks
"I just ran further than i have in my entire life. Clary and Simon better have fucking found where the book is."
All Alec does is laugh and pull me into a hug.
"I know you just got here but Magnus called, Clary and the others are meeting us there."
I groan before following him out the door i just came in through.

We open the door to Magnus' apartment and walk in heading towards the living room.
"... long has it been? One hundred, one hundred and fifty years?" Camilles voice floats through the apartment
"One hundred and thirty eight. Oddly, I haven't missed you on bit." Magnus replies as we walk into the room
Camille smiles "of course you have, my love."
"Alright." Clary starts, spotting us "hi guys. You two can catch up later. Right now we need to find the Book of White."
Camille continues looking at her nails as she replies "nod you will, but not without payment. You of all people should understand that." She directs the answer at Magnus ho doesnt seem that interested
"Whatdya want" I ask for Magnus, not knowing what it is either
Camille smirks "a clean slate."
"She wants me to sign a document saying that i asked her to turn me into a vampire." Simon answers the question I didn't get the chance to laugh.
"And we need you to draft it." Clary continues
"Your not seriously going along with this." I ask shocked
Clarys about to reply when Magnus cuts in looking at Camille "i thought i was done with you."
"We'll never be done with each other."
Izzy leaves saying she is going to call backup and Clary pulls Simon out of the room claiming she needs to talk to him. Camille looks at me and Alec expectantly.
"Your a psychopath" i say before walking out of the room dragging Alec with me.
"Hayley slow down, im need to head back to the Institute and get some backup."he tells me, i nod my head as he walks away. I turn around and walk over to where Izzy is standing.
"Have Alec and Jace been talking much? Alec stills seems very on edge." I ask her
Izzy smiles "i think there getting there. They are parabatai after all dithery always will be. That will work things out it might just take a bit of time."
"Would you have a parabati? If there was someone you trusted enough, and had a connection with" I ask
"Yeah, i think i would." She smiles at me the question lingering in the air, we talk for a little bit longer until Alec returns with his weapons and a spare Seraph Blade for me and Clary.
When we walk into Magnus' apartment, he is standing in the middle of the room kissing Camille when he sees us enter his eyes widen and he pulls away. "Well, this is awkward."
"Yeah, no shit." I say with a sigh
"Where's the Book?" Izzy asks trying to change the subject
Mags shrugs "its complicated."
"Clearly" i reply
"I have it." Camille says with a smug smile on her face, i scowl at her
"And shes graciously offered it in exchange for her freedom." Magnus continues for her
Izzy scoffs "and her freedom requires a lip lock?"
"We dont negotiate with with prisoners." Clary says walking forwards a couple of steps
Camille lets out a short laugh "prisoner? I be to disagree. You see, im your only chance at saving the world." Magnus makes a circle with his finger against his temple signalling that she is crazy
"Your crazy!" I exclaim but she doesnt answer
"Lets go" Izzy says "i want to get this over with."
