Jace held the serph blade tightly before clipping it into his belt. Clarys new rune was traced on the other hand. Clary stood behind him with her dagger held tightly in her hand prepared to fight. They stepped quietly out on to the corridor and up to the top of the stairs where the man was still pacing. Jace wrapped his arm around the man's throat from behind and held his spare hand other the man's mouth to muffle any of his cries for help. Checking that the rest of the corridor was clear Clary stepped in front of the man and held out her palm directly facing his eyes. The man's heart thumped against his chest, he closed his eyes in an attempt to stop the rune from taking an effect on him. He was frightened he had no idea what the runes powers where and he didn't want to find out. Clary pulled her dagger up and held it against the man's throat. "Open your eyes or I slit your throat." She whispered. The man slowly opened his eyes. Within a few moments Jace felt the man's body loosen in his grip. Clary watched as the man's eyes rolled back and he slipped off in to the darkness. Jace lowered the man's body to the floor and dragged it into the nearest door way so it couldn't be easily seen.

The couple moved again down the corridor. There were only two rooms left then it was a dead end. The corridor was clear so the Jace moved towards one door and Clary moved towards the other. Jace pressed his ear against the door. He could hear laughter and the sound of microwaves beeping and food wrappers crackling. Jace glanced towards Clary and shook his head. This defiantly isn't the room they wanted. Clary Focused on what she could hear behind the door. It was quiet at first but then her rune of enhanced hearing set in and she could hear a soft consistent beep. Could this be the sound of the monitors they had attached to George? Clary waved Jace over and he two pressed his ear against the door. Jace nodded in approval "Let's go get George." After another glance down the empty corridor Jace and Clary quietly pushed the door open.

Behind the door was a tiny box room containing a narrow stair case leading downwards. As the door clicked shut they heard a loud beep echo around the room. As Jace looked up he realised where it had come from. "Security camera they probably know we are here we need to move fast." Clary nodded and stepped towards the staircase but Jace held his arm out to stop her. "I'll go first. Stay close." Jace quickly moved down to the bottom of the staircase and he smiled "Clary Look." As clary reached his side her heart pounded in her chest. The door at the bottom of the staircase was Labelled OR. "He's here Jace. My baby!" she whispered as a tear slid down her cheek. Jace pulled her into a cuddle. He wiped away her tears "Stay strong Clary. Keep your stele safe and grab George. I'll try fight anyone off. George is your priority." His voice was surprisingly calm even though inside he knew that if what they were about to do went wrong. They would end up locked up for the rest of their lives.

Jace reached out and gripped the door handle. The door wasn't locked. Jace shoved the door open. Two members of the Clave jumped to their feet and pulled out daggers. Jace drew his blade and held it tightly. The first man came at him whilst the other moved towards Clary. Jace's blade clashed with the man's dagger. Jace kicked the man in the stomach causing him to wince away to catch his breath. Jace took this as an opportunity to disarm the man. He lunged forward grabbing the man's arm witch held the dagger. He twisted it behind his back. The man fought against Jace's grip but Jace showed no mercy, he pulled the arm higher and higher, twisting it as far as he could until the man screamed out in pain. Jace had pulled his arm so high that the man's collarbone had shattered. The man dropped his dagger and crumpled to the floor.

Across the room Clary stared at the crib her son lay in. With all the noise George had woken and was crying and shouting "DaDa" Clary let herself be distracted by her sons cries which was a dreadful mistake. The Clave member who had moved towards her with his dagger outstretched. He caught Clary of guard and slammed her body against the wall. He hit her head hard with his elbow making her dizzy. Clary could feel the darkness consuming her body. Her ears began to ring and the world began to slip away but a noise quickly brought her back to reality. The sound of her son crying echoed around the room. That cry gave her the strength to carry on. Clary open her eyes and faced the man holding her. He saw her body tense and he quickly brought his dagger up and held it against Clarys throat. His grip on her body was firm but she struggled against him. She brought her knee up high and kicked him in the crotch. Despite the pain he didn't move the dagger away from Clarys throat but he loosened his grip just enough to give clary room to move the palm of her hand in front of his face. The rune she had drawn was beginning to fade. She strained her whole body and focused on the man's face. His grip loosened slightly but not for long. Clarys rune had completely faded and he regained his full strength. Clary felt the tip of the dagger cut into her skin. A trickle of blood slipped down her neck as she gasped. Clarys eyes fell on her son.

Jace grabbed the dagger the man had dropped. The man tried to regain his footing but Jace slashed the dagger across the man's chest tearing the man's shirt and leaving the blood oozing from the wound. The man dropped to the floor a laid in a pool of his own blood. Jace lifted his gaze and locked it onto his wife. Clary was pressed firm against the wall with blood running down her neck. Jace swiftly moved across the room and drew his serph blade. He wrapped his arm around the man's neck "Let go of my wife" He growled. The man didn't move. "Jace forced the man's head to look towards his work mate left bloody and broken on the floor. "All I have to do. Is move one finger to slit your throat." Jace said his voice was firm and demanding. Finally, the man spoke. "You will have to kill me to get the child. He belongs to the clave and is the future of our Armey." Jace gulped "Last Chance. Drop my wife or die." The man didn't speak but he pressed the dagger harder against her throat drawing more blood. Without a second thought Jace forced the dagger against the man's throat and in one swift movement from left to right Jace sliced the man's throat open killing him within seconds. Jace dropped the man's body to the floor, surprised by his own actions and Clary gasped in shock. Jace dragged his body against the door to wedge it shut. The other man was still alive but unable to move.

Clary ran to her son's crib and yanked all the wires off him pulling him up into her arms. His screams echoed in her ears blocking out all sound but she didn't care. "My Baby." She squeezed him tightly. Jace gripped her arm tightly hearing the sound of approaching footsteps. "Draw a portal Now!" He stepped back putting all his weight against the door as some very angry Clave members tried to force their way into the room. Clary drew her stele and traced the shape of the portal within a few minutes it was open and ready for the couple to travel through "Remember Clary picture the green house in the institute. Hold George tightly. You go and ill follow." Clary opened her mouth to speak but Jace shook his head "GO NOW!" he shouted. Clary held her son in her arms picturing the institute as she stepped into the portal. Once Jace new that Clary was safely gone he pressed his feet against the door and ran through the portal. The Clave members burst through the door just in time to watch the portal close.
