Mantid demons attacked the house and killed Johnny in the process.
When Emma killed Malcolm, the wards surrounding the Rook house were destroyed. Fearing for Kit's safety, Johnny hastily gave Emma more information and established that he would never help them again.
Julian, Emma, and Johnny came in shortly after, surprised by Ty's presence. Kit was struck by Ty's beauty and Ty soon realized that he was Johnny's son. Thinking that Emma and Julian were in danger, Ty attacked Kit and held a knife to his throat, demanding answers. While Kit hid in the basement as always, Julian's brother, Ty, saw him. Later, Emma and her parabatai, Julian Blackthorn, came to their house to question Johnny. Kit then got scared, remembering his father's exaggerated warnings about Shadowhunters recruiting young, Sighted mundanes. Kit curiously eavesdropped on the conversation, and Emma noticed him, to his father's dismay. Just then, the Shadowhunters Emma Carstairs and Cameron Ashdown arrived to seek information from his father, making several people, including Wren, uneasy. Kit was at the Shadow Market one day in August 2012, in conversation with his friend Wren, when he first noticed Jem Carstairs and Tessa Gray, posing as casual customers but were in fact looking into the Rooks, though he paid them little notice. Though Johnny did what he could to protect and raise Kit, they weren't too close or affectionate. Johnny did teach Kit tricks and skills related to their line of work: Kit grew up picking pockets, performing sleights of hand, tricks, and picking locks. Growing up, whenever Johnny had to entertain clients in their home, Kit was forced to hide in the basement. For good measure, he instilled in Kit a fear of Shadowhunters by telling him that they kidnapped any person with the Sight under the age of nineteen due to their shortage of warriors since the Dark War.
Johnny explained to Kit that they could see the Shadow World because they had the "Gift"-his term for the Sight. Since then, Kit taught himself out of old books and spent his free time playing video games in the basement. From then on, Johnny rarely allowed him out of the house, except to occasionally help out at their booth at the L.A. When he was young and still going to a mundane school, he saw a pack of werewolves fighting and screamed until the police arrived and saw nothing. Like most Nephilim, he was born with the Sight.
Unbeknownst to Kit, he came from a long line of Shadowhunters, descended from a secret Herondale line that has since been interbred with faerie blood of the First Heir. Kit was raised by his father, a man who went by the name Johnny Rook.
