"I'm surprised you are letting me rune you." Jace said, as he pulled out his stele and took her arm gently. Skye rolled her eyes as she watched him draw a silencing rune onto her arm, she had only let him rune because well she did not know why she did but she didn't mind...let work for her really. "You're being quiet."

"Sorry, tends to happen sometimes." Skye said softly, he finished up and smiled at her. "How will we find Simon?" She asked, she had never been to the hotel and usually avoided Vampires.

"He'll be in the most secure room." Jace said as he led the way to the entrance, Skye walked along beside him.

"Great, simple. He'll feel kind of high, kind of like he's in love. With the one who bit him..." Skye pointed out, it was odd the kind of effects vampires had on mundanes...the way they got into their heads.

"Exactly, it wears off just like love." Jace mumbled, Skylar raised an eyebrow and nudged him in a playful manner.

"Aww how someone never been in love?" She teased, he rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"No, have you?" He asked as he watched her.

"Nope!" She said popping the 'p' they both walked down the steps, the two were being honest with one another. "Though one day I wouldn't mind falling in love...it's something I've seen a lot in movies...on movie..with Clary and my mom. It's all love, they make it seem like the world stops and it's like they can't be around them no matter what.." Jace placed a hand on her shoulder and let out a soft sigh.

"One day, but it's not gonna happen...well not yet anyways. Now let's go-" Jace began to say before Skylar put her index finger on his lips, silencing him.

"Kick some vampire ass." Skye finished with a smile on her face.

"Just ran 30 blocks to get here before I freaking burned to death in the sun! You missed your ride, angel doll." The vampire from the bar hissing right before Jace was tackled by a few vampires, he fell onto the floor and was struggling to move.

"Skye!" Jace shouted, she let the vampire grabbed her wrist tightly and glared at her.

"Why'd you go with him, huh? You really know how to hurt a guy." He hissed, revealing his fangs before Skye kneed him in the crotch area and kicked him in the stomach.

"You're right. I really do know how to hurt a guy." Skye said before pulled out her blade and stabbing it into the vampire's back, he turned into dust as Jace fought off the vampires. Right on cue Alec came in, and shot an arrow at one of the vampire's fighting Jace with Isabelle plus Clary following.

"That was badass." Izzy said and chuckled, Skye did the same and rolled her eyes.

"Forget that, let's get Simon!" Clary reminded them, as she held her blade tightly.

"Right." Skye said with a nod, the shadowhunters left the room and head off to find him. Clary just wanted to find and save her best-friend, while the others simply want to leave the hotel unharmed. Luckily for them they had found Simon...with a knife on his neck..and held by Raphael.

"Simon!" Clary said and moved forward to him but Skye grabbed her arm and pulled her back not wanting her little sister getting hurt.

"That's not gonna do any good." Jace said, keeping his eyes on the vampire.

"Listen to him, Clary Fairchild. Put it away. I've had more than enough of your friend for one day. I'd love to cut his throat. Don't give me a reason. Put it away!" Raphael shouted, the others exchanged looks before putting their weapons away.

"Simon. Simon, are you all right?" Clary asked, her eyes filled with worry and concern.

"I wouldn't say all right..." Simon said and gulped, he was afraid...this world was scarier than he expected.

"Stop talking! Now... if you would all just follow me. Let's go!" Raphael spoke as he started to walk backwards and slowly, keeping his eyes on the nephilim. They hesitated at first but followed Raphael away. After a while, Raphael had pushed Simon forward towards Jace.

"Jace Wayland! Remember who your friends are." Raphael shouted, that was the last thing he said to Jace before leaving and joining the others on the roof. Skylar, Alec, Jace and Isabelle had left Clary and Simon to talk alone.

Skylar approached her parabatai reapplying her lipstick, Isabelle smiled at her. "Need some? For when you make out with Jace?" Izzy teased in a whisper, Skylar rolled her eyes and nudged her lightly before chuckling.

"Oh shut up, I don't plan on making out with him...with red lipstick." Skylar said playing along with her, Izzy finished applying her lipstick and winked at her.

"Forgot, you're more of a lip gloss girl." Izzy said, the blonde nodded in agreement and glanced back at Jace who had looked at her at the same time before returning to his conversation with Alec.

I won't be home on the weekends, so I decided to update early!
