Izzy and Simon arrived at the institute dripping with rain. They laughed as they went upstairs into the library. When they arrived in the library they sat down and read some books about Shadowhunters. Simon had read a children's rhyme about what the colours meant to the shadowhunters and Izzy was now testing him.
"So your gear is black so is's the colour you wear to hunt demons and stuff" Simon said looking at Izzy she nodded and waved her hand telling him to carry on.
"When your mourning you wear gold, when its a wedding you wear white, when you where red its a ceremony or something" Simon said looking proud of himself. "Everything right except whites for mourning and golds for weddings" Izzy replied trying to hide her grin.
"Why are you grinning like that?" Simon asked staring at Izzy.
"Just I never thought this would be happening, first you were just a normal mundane, then you were a vampire meaning you couldn't come into the institute and then you lost your memories and forgot me. Im just really happy your here and here I am teaching you to become a shadowhunter" Izzy said looking at her feet.
In the silence Jace and Clary entered the room. They were both wearing gear that was covered in what looked like blood and Jace was grinning wildly, there was something dark smudged across his cheek.
"What have you guys been doing, Ans whats that on your face?" Isabelle asked looking up at Jace.
"Oh, you know, just the usual, hunting demons" Jace said wiping his face. However this only smudged the mark more.
"There was a ravner demon in a building just off Broadway"Clary said "So hows the training going Simon?" Jace asked, still having no luck with the mark on his face.
"Its going great. Izzys really helping. I still have a few months left till I ascend so im not worried" Simon said sliding the book he was reading back onto the shelf. "I think i'd better go now" Simon said walking over to the door.
"Wait" Izzy shouted as she leaped off her chair and ran towards Simon. She wrapped her arms around him and pecked him on the cheek.
"See you tomorrow I hope" She said running back over to Jace and Clary who waved to him as he left.
The next few weeks went by smoothly. He had been to every band practice and gone training almost every night. It was Friday the 13th June and Simon was in his room reading through the Shadowhunter Codex. A week earlier Izzy had given him some gear that was now hanging up in his wardrobe where, he hoped, his mom wouldn't find it. Simons phone buzzed. It was a text from Eric.
You coming to practice tonight
The gigs tomorrow!
Simon swore under his breath. He had forgotten all about the gig and the practice. Hiding the big codex under his bed in the usual spot, Simon grabbed his bass and ran next door into Erics garage.
"Where're you been" Matt said as he plugged his bass into an amp.
"Just Studying for a test I have coming up" Simon said.
"Should we get started" Kirk asked. They all nodded and went through all of the songs they had for the gig tomorrow.
"So is it just 5:00 again?" Simon asked after they had finished practicing, packing his bass away in the process.
"Yeah dude, see you there and don't be late" Eric said as Simon walked out of the garage. When Simon looked down at his phone he saw that is was 4:30. He decided to ring Izzy. She picked up on the third ring.
"Hey you up for some training?" He asked before she had the chance to speak.
"Uh yeah" she said
"K be there in a flash" Simon said hanging his phone up. He ran into his room and packed a bag. He had his gear, the codex and a few other things. When he arrived at the institute Izzy was standing waiting for him.
"Hey" She said as he reached the top of the step.
"Hi" Simon said. They walked up to the training room and Simon put on his gear. They practiced all sorts, Knife throwing, hand to hand combat and using seraph blades. When they were done it was around 11:00pm and they were both pretty worn out. They sat in the middle of the room, Izzys head on Simons shoulder.
"The bands got a gig tomorrow if you wanna come along" Simon said. Izzy lifted her head to look at Simon.
"Yeah I can ask the others to, been a while since we had a night off" She said.
"How come?" Simon asked.
"Well theres been loads of demons hanging around latley and some downworlders are breaking the accords, so we have to keep all of that sorted and we still have training." She said sounding exhausted.
"Soon I can help too" Simon said but it was too late, Izzy had already drifted into a deep sleep. Simon picked her up and carried her to her room. He lay her on her bed under the covers kissed her on the forehead.
"Night Izzy" He said as he left the room, heading towards the elevator that went downstairs to the street. As he pressed the button he heard someone walk up behind him.
"You remember her now, don't you" It was Clary.
"Yeah, mostly" Simon said turning to face her. Clary reached up and hugged him.
"Thanks for letting Magnus use the spell to bring back your memories, we all missed you" She said. When she pulled back she walked towards a hallway leading deep into the institute. The elevator arrived and Simon walked in, smiling to himself as his life finally started to make sense again.
