As Simon sat at the long wooden table, he recalled the past few days of his life. His mother had left a note at home that he would leave for a place where he would be safe. Since he was now a vampire and all, the outside world wouldn't be as safe for him anymore, so he was sent to Ms. Oggie's house, out in the deep forest. Apparently Ms. Oggie was Simon's mother's housekeeper before Simon was born. Now as Simon sat at the table by himself he wondered why he has never heard of her until now. Stirring his spoon around in his tea, he glanced at the doorway into the next room where Ms. Oggie was. Her house has a weird set up thought Simon thought as he turned his head to look at the other doorway directly opposite to the first one. He was forbidden to go through the second doorway for who knows what reason. The house also had an upstairs as well. The stairs were through the first doorway on the left. Simon's room was up the stairs, his room was the only room up there except for the bathroom. Ms. Oggie's room was through the second doorway. In the weeks that Simon has lived here Ms. Oggie kept getting stranger and stranger. She would talk to herself and sometimes yell at Simon for strange reasons. Simon was beginning to get worried about her. But there wasn't much he could do. Sighing, he took his spoon out of his tea and set it on the table. Just as he was about to take a sip he heard an odd noise coming from the forbidden doorway. Ignoring it, he looked back down at his tea. He picked up his cup and brought it to his lips. Just then, the door of the forbidden doorway burst open.

"Simon, you idiot! Don't drink any of that crap that old hag gives you!" said a familiar blond haired Shadowhunter.

"Jace! What are you doing here? This place is supposed to be untraceable!"

"Well," smirked Jace, "I'm here to save the princess." Simon glared at Jace but ignored the insult. Jace continued, "As for the 'untraceable' part we did have a hell of a hard time trying to find you and-''

"Wait," interrupted Simon, "Why are you here to save me? I came to this place to be safe!"

"Don't interrupt it's rude." Jace added, "No this place is not safe. As a matter of fact it's far from safe. Safe is the last thing it is right now."

"What do you mean? My mom sent me here.''

"No she didn't. Don't you see! It's a trap, Idiot. Your house reeked of greater demon and your mother had nothing to do with this.'' Simon looked at Jace incredulously. He couldn't believe that Jace would come all the way up there just to mock him. What nerve! Simon thought.

"Jace, what would the trap be for anyway?" A cold shiver ran up Simon's back at the tone of Jace's voice as he answered,

"Us."

Simon looked coldly at Jace, still not believing him. Jace turned to go back out the way he came. "Come on," Jace called. Simon turned to the first doorway, "No.'' Simon walked through the first doorway and dumped his tea in the sink. Sighing, Jace came through the doorway and saw Ms. Oggie's outline standing on the porch through the screen door. It looked as though see was sweeping the deck. Jace turned to Simon, "You're going to be difficult aren't you?" Simon met his stare.

"What are you going to about it?"

Jace chuckled a little and moved over to where Simon stood by the sink. Simon watched him obviously puzzled. Jace smirked and flung Simon over his shoulder.

"You're coming whether you like it or not!"

"Jace! Put me down right now!"

"Tsk, tsk I don't think so."

Jace carried Simon back through the first doorway and into the forbidden doorway. Jace had come in through a window in Ms. Oggie's room and that's the way he intended on getting out. As he threw Simon out the window he heard soft footsteps coming toward the room. "Hurry up, Simon! We have to get out now!" Jace whispered urgently. Simon pulled himself out of the window and landed on the ground below with a thud. Unfortunately, he landed on his face. He looked up to see Jace jumping gracefully out of the window and land on his feet beside him. "Get up, we gotta go!" Jace whispered. Simon heaved himself off the ground and onto his feet. He turned to face Jace.

"If you ever tell anybody you carried me I will kill you! Don't tell anyone, especially Clary!"

Jace shrugged, "You can try but in technicality it is I who is supposed to kill you since you are, after all, a vampire." Simon glared hard at Jace. Suddenly the front door knob turned slightly. Jace's eyes widened.

"Run!"

Jace took off into the forest with Simon following close behind. A roar sounded behind them. Jace picked up speed, "Faster!"

"Is the almighty Jace running from a fight?" Simon gasped mockingly out as he ran.

"Do you want to fight that?" Jace said pointing behind them. Simon turned his head only to wish he didn't. Behind them the little old lady Ms. Oggie had transformed into a giant hideous black creature with huge tentacles sprouting out from almost every part of her body. Black ink like liquid dripped from her as she chased after them.

"Shadowhunter! Give me my vampire back!" she roared. Jace keep running.

"If you want him come and get him!" The creature roared again and begin to catch up with the boys. "Great going Jace! Now you've gone and made it angry!"

"Eh, it'll get over it." The boys kept running crunching leaves as they went. The crisp fall air stung Jace's face as he ran.

"It's catching up!" Simon yelled. Jace glanced back and sure enough it was right on Simon's heels. Oh crap, thought Jace, if he gets hurt Clary will have my head for sure!

Jace pulled out a seraph blade, called out its name, and flung it at the beast. It reared back with a scream as the stele drove itself into one of its tentacles. Jace breathed a sigh of relief, "Come on! It's distracted let's move!" Soon Jace could see the little hut that had been his hideout for a while. He heard another roar and turned around only to see that creature once again. "Will it ever give up?" Jce growled. Simon suddenly cried out. Jace turned to see that the creature had tripped Simon with one of its tentacles and was about to bite into his leg. "Oh sh- Alec! Isabelle! I need a weapon!" Two figures came darting out of the hut. They raced toward Jace, Simon, and the creature. Simon screamed in pain as the creature clamped its teeth around his leg. Isabelle attacked the creature with her whip while Alec threw a seraph blade at it.

"Jace! Get Simon inside, now!"Alec yelled. Jace made a face but obeyed. As he flung Simon onto his shoulder once again, he stumbled toward the hut. Canine-like figures rushed out of it charging toward the creature. Jace, Alec, and Isabelle had been sent on a mission away from the Institute to help the werewolves that lived in the hut in the forest with a demon invasion. They had taken gotten rid of many demons in there stay, but they were also here for another reason. Simon went missing and they were on a search party for him also. Jace hauled Simon up the last few steps of the hut breathing a breath of relief. Thank God that Clary isn't here. She would freak out and I'd never hear the end of it, Jace thought as he flung the door of the hut open. As he did so, he was greeted by a familiar redheaded figure. Oh God! Help me! Jace mentally screamed.
