A/N: I may tweak this because I'm fussy with action scenes, however, I'm good with for now. Enjoy.

Simon was so happy to see Izzy appear in the cell and hugged her tightly. That meant the toughest person he knew was with him and if anyone could figure out the problem, it would be his wife and her family. He explained that the fake Simon was in the room with her brothers and her soon to be parabatai. He pointed to the TV screen and she absorbed all the information.

When Jace and Alec appeared, Simon took the lead in informing them of the their circumstances with the efficiency the Inquisitor expected. The daylighter beamed when Alec accepted everything without comment, Izzy was proud of her husband. The downworld deputies brought much needed information and skill sets that helped the Institutes and the Clave.

Alec was annoyed with all of it, the entire situation irritated him. For the first time he really appreciated Simon's love for pop culture, his sister had chosen well for a husband. His normal modus operandi would be to roll his eyes for the most part when Simon rambled about TV, movies and games; this time it was an advantage for the team.

Alec worked with his family to get out of the cell, he kept an eye on Magnus as well. He would rip that demon apart if he hurt his warlock. He noticed their weapons in another room. Their goal was to get out of the cell and arm themselves. Take down the demon and go home. Alec noted no cameras or security in the room they were in, it would be easy to take the advantage for the experienced group.

Jace and Alec spent their time casing the cell, looking for any weakness that could be exploited. It kept them busy as their lovers were still playing the game. One thing the parabatai was certain of was that the demon didn't know, Jace could activate runes without a stele. While Jace didn't use this ability very often it did come in handy from time to time. He unlocked the cell and then opened the room with their weapons.

The group was now armed and placed themselves in strategic positions around the spacious room to take out the demon. Simon and Izzy were paired up, the best way to keep anyone killing the real Simon was for him to be with his wife. Alec found a vantage point in the hallway for his bow, while Jace hid near the cell but made sure he was out of view but had his seraph blade ready. He kept Clary's weapons and stele at his side for ease to help arm her. He was certain she would be appearing in the cell soon.

The game was over, Clary and Magnus kept their votes the same that fake Simon was the Hustler, there was something off about him and both of them knew it. It was obvious to Clary, she knew her best friend and he wasn't behaving normally. The TV Host wrapped up the game with who won and how much monetarily then they were all escorted out of the studio. Clary and Magnus once out of view of producers, stage hands and crew were automatically transported to the cell.

Reaper easily wiped the memories of everyone on the show and then made his way to the prison cell he built. Reaper's plan was coming together, he had been very pleased with everything. Now, to torture and kill. He was enamored with the idea until he got to the cell room and the only two people in it were Clary and Magnus who were walking out of it. Jace carefully tossed Clary's weapons to her and the warlock was already forming a magical red fire ball.

Reaper was furious at the change in events. He would use as many souls needed to help him kill them, clearly he wouldn't have time to torture with them loose. He'd have to re-capture but right now he was too angry for anything but murdering. His two latest souls, the warlock and seelie were incredibly uncooperative. They had power he could exploit and it didn't matter how uncooperative they were he would tap into them when needed and use whatever tool he had at his disposal.

Reaper used his tattoos to pull forth souls that he knew would obey and kill on his command. He evened out the battle ground with a set of beings to fight with him. He watched to see which person was the biggest threat before engaging, that turned out to be a shadowhunter and warlock paired together was more deadly due to distance than the other couples, though all were deadly. The close combat fights would distract them from coming for him.

Reaper called upon his claws and set his defensive posture and waited. He would use the magic he had stored when needed. He sent forth a set of demon souls to fight. To his delight, the souls attacked quickly. All of the pairs were engaged in a fight but Reaper concentrated on Magnus, he would be the one to take out first. He'd would send a distracting soul or more to keep Alec busy. The husband of the warlock was very efficient and dispatched souls quickly, Reaper kept up the assault. He traded fire balls with Magnus, but neither was gaining ground. They were booth very agile to the Reapers irritation and Alec was keeping the demon souls at bay far to easily.

In commander mode Alexander ordered directives. No one was going to hurt his husband or his family. Magnus announced strategies as well because he understood the demon, everyone adjusted accordingly. Alec kept his husband flanked and protected. Alec knew Magnus could take care of himself, but he wasn't taking any chances. He counted on Jace and Izzy with their fighting skills to keep the whole group alive and unharmed.

Reaper didn't realize that there was a reason this group were so strong together. He searched for weaknesses and when he thought he found one in the fight, especially with Clary who had been newly brought back into the group he was surprised by her strength. They all fought with heart but Reaper had souls, they were an extension of him, they didn't have a chance in his view.

Each pair made quick work of the demonic souls and those souls that didn't want to fight would disappear, infuriating the Reaper more forcing him to call upon on souls that were more demonic to fight for him. They were easier for him to control and less cowardly.

The shadowhunter weapons of kindjals, seraph blades, arrows, bo-staff plus warlock magic were used efficiently with the enemies and when Clary could use her sun light rune via her stele, she was able to do more damage. They removed the demonic souls and advanced on the demon, they were able to get closer to the Reaper. Alec and Magnus kept their distance, they were better suited to flank and protect the melee group while continuing their assault from afar.

The team knew to take the demon out and in a united effort while not taking their eyes off of the spirit like demons, they focused on Reaper and dispatched any of the souls that went near them. Reaper used his new claws to deflect and shield himself while continuing his own assault on the group. If he could get one of them with his scythe and take the soul, that would be a bonus to use against the others.

The fight became chaotic wwith each person with their specialty on display. With so many demon souls clouding the room for all making visibility difficult, so much so that Reaper didn't see the barrage of the whip, arrows and fireballs until it was too late to defend himself, he disintegrated immediately and the souls disappeared. The group checked each other for injuries, using iratzes or Magnus' magic to heal everyone. The room returning to its normal condition without the cells. Sets, props and other things needed for the show appearing. With Reaper gone, the glamour faded as well.

Clary plucked the portal shard from ashes where Reaper had been, she knew what it was and how to use it and took them home to their world. They'd had enough of 'games' for the time being. Once they were in their realm, she gave the stone to Magnus. "Please destroy it." Her look was one of I can't lose my family again. Magnus understood and agreed with his biscuit.

With a flourish of hands Magnus broke the shard in pieces but he didn't stop there. He made sure all the fragments were turned to dust and then dumped in the Hudson River. He opened a portal for each couple to send them to their respective homes. It was only his Alexander and himself standing on the sidewalk they had portal into from the shard. He kissed his husband, they joined hands and walked home allowing them to enjoy the evening, knowing once they got to the loft, they would be enjoying entertainment of a different type.
