The rest of the weekend passed in a blur, until it was finally Monday morning again. I groaned and sat up, wishing that Clary was still by my side as she had been for a lot of the weekend. I even enjoyed fighting with the others; we were going to do that after dauntless training today as well, shadow hunters would win. We always do.

I swung my legs out of my bed and onto the cold stone floor before standing up and stretching my arms out. Around me people were slowly stirring and I grabbed my clothes and towel and rushed to have a shower before the stalls were all taken. Luckily I made it in and I had a shower, letting the warm water wash the sleep away and wake me up. I got out and towelled myself off before dressing in training clothes. My soap and stuff was scattered across the shower area so I quickly gathered it all up and tucked it under my arm. On my way out I passed Annabeth who eagerly jumped for the spare shower cubicle.

"Calm down babe, I know you want to be anywhere that my naked body just vacated but you need to relax." I said with a smirk.

She glared at me and punched my arm, before turning and stalking into the shower. My laughter echoed around me as I made my way to my bed and sat down to tie up put my shoes on and I dried my hair using my towel. I looked and saw Percy still in bed, seemingly trying to wake up properly.

"Percy, come on. How can you be expected to remember people and save the world if you cant even wake up in the morning? Why they only gave me 3 people I will never know."

Percy rolled is eyes and sat up, wincing as his feet hit the cold ground. I laughed and stood up, making my way to the door to go to the dining area. On my way out I brushed passed Maren; or 6. I wasn't sure.

"Are you going to breakfast?"

"Yeah I was just on my way lets go."

I smirk and we begin our way down the hall together. "Do you prefer to be called Maren or 6?"

She wrinkled her nose. "I hate the name Maren, 6. Definitely 6."

I chuckled and nod, turning to face the hallway once again. We finally made it to breakfast and sat down, eating our fill as other initiates trickled in slowly.

"Good morning Stanley. Lovely day isn't it?"

He smirked at me and sat down to eat. "Yes it is. It will be even better when Loric smash you gys tonight."

I snorted. "Loric. That's cute." He just smirked and turned away, as I did and talked to Percy and Annabeth who had just sat down.

"You guys ready for fear landscape?"

They shared a look and grimaced. "No, we don't have a choice though."

I raised an eyebrow,"What could possibly be that bad?"

Percy closed his eyes and a look of pain crossed his face before he masked his emotions and opened his eyes. "Don't worry, just forget about it."

"Its probably something like; oh, I know! Annabeth totally rejected you didn't she? That's gold."

Annabeth glared at me. "No smart ass, that would be a bad memory, not a worst fear, and you dot know what the hades your talking about so shut up."

I laughed and went back to eating my food and 4 came up.

"initiates, fear room 10 minutes."

We all nodded and finished our meals, some rushing back to brush their teeth, others going straight to the training room. We arrived at the fear room and noticed the complete lack of physical training equipment. In its place were 2 lines of chairs along the walls, and a door along the far wall tha let to something we couldn't see. The last initiates trickled in and 4 stood up the front once again.

"Initiates, everyone take a seat, I'll call you in one by one. Jace, your up."

I smirked and strutted up to the door, walking in confidentaly behind him. He gestured to a chair; kind of a dentists chair and motioned for me to sit.

"Im going to give you a serum. It will show you one of your worst fears, and you will be released from the simulation when you control your breathing and get your heart rate back to normal. Good luck."

I felt a pinch in my neck and that was it.

I stood on a hill, overlooking a burning city; from the looks of it New York. Down below me were shadow hunters dressed in black fighting against the endarkened, clad in red to match the black. The red clothes were ruthless across the field, a flash and then a falling black clothed body. I heard a cough behind me and turned to find Sebastian smiling at me.

"We did it brother. The world will be ours, just after the New York institute is captured. That is it. You did well; killing off the Lightwoods like that. Very noble of you, Im proud to rule the world with you behind me."

WHAT! My mind screamed at me, but I was in two minds. Before I could realise what was happening my mouth opened.

"Yes brother, that was easy. The looks on their faces, they thought I came back to return Clary. They could never believe I would do that. Good thing our father taught me well. To love is to destroy, or if you love one destroy them is what I like to say."

Sebastian laughed, a cold, cruel laugh.

"Right in every way. The only thing left is to go kill that bitch who's barricaded herself into the institute. Her petty runes will never save her. Come along."

I nodded obediently and began following, before pausing. What was I doing? I loved Clary. I didn't want to destroy her. I didn't kill Isabelle or Alec, thats not who I am. Or is it? A voice said in my head. I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts and quickly raised me seraph blade. Sebastian mentioned that only I could kill Clary; end the war and win for the endarkened. I wasn't going to do that.

"Gabriel," I whispered and looked as Sebastian turned around in shock and stared at me.

"Jace, what are; JACE!"

I plunged the blade into my heart, falling to the ground with a thump.

I woke up with a start, jumping to my feet instantly. Running a hand through my hair I looked at 4 who was looking at me curiously.

"Why the hell do we go through that!"

"Jace, were you aware that you were in a simulation?"

I frowned. "I don't think so, why?"

"Well Ive never seen, I mean most people don't kill themselves unless they know its fake. You were willing to die to stop that war weren't you?"

I took in a deep breath and exhaled. "Ive been in that position before, when I was out I hated myself. I heard a small voice questioning my actions and I didn't hesitate to listen."

4 nodded. "Fine, exit through that door; the rest of you days off."

I nodded and walked out the door and to my dorm.

Gale POV

I was walked in, and the door closed behind me, locking me in place. I made eye contact with the other people in the space, before leaning down to fix up my shoes. All around me people chatted awkwardly, soot covering their faces and grease stains permanently sticking to their clothes. I noticed my own stained hands and tried to wipe them on my pants, but they got sweatier. The lift kept descending, further and further down into the depths of the coal mines.

Finally the doors opened emitting us to the dull lamp light which we worked from, and we filed out and into the latest area. I began work at my station, getting more and more nervous as the moments went by. Something was different in the air; I could feel it. It seemed tense down in the mines. Suddenly, far off, an explosion shook the walls, crumbling dirt and stone from the ceiling and onto our clothes and skin. Another explosion rocked the walls and the rest of the men turned to each other, worried.

The lamps were flickering more profoundly; almost a warning to get out of there. The guys all backed up and ran to the lift, shouting for me to follow but I shook my head, trying to tell them that they wouldn't make it. None of them would. But they went up anyway. About 5 seconds later and large crash was heard and the lift came tumbling down, exploding when it hit the ground, dirt stone and fire spread around the mine, covering me.

I ducked into a small alcove between the walls, safe from the fire. None of the guys would have survived that. At least it was quick, and small voice reasoned. Suddenly a huge bang echoed around, and before i could realise the roof crumbled down, trapping him in his little alcove. I was trapped. Without food or water, not even light. I would die slowly and painfully down here alone. I was caked In layers of dirt and sweat, and somehow my lips had cracked, creating a small trickle of blood down my face. I put my head in my hands and let my tears escape. How long would it take? Would it be very painful. I started almost hyperventilating in the small space I was enclosed in and I forced myself to take deep breaths and think rationally. I could dig my way out. It was a long shot but I could. I took a few deep breaths and my heart stopped beating crazy fast, and calmed down to a normal rate.

I woke up and immediately gulped in air greedily from around the room. 4 sat at the monitor looking at me sympathetically.

"First times always the worst, it will get better."

I nodded and wiped my sweaty palms on my legs, standing up shakily and leaving the room.

Annabeth POV

Four called me in and I walked in with my head held high, knowing what would await me. Four explained to me what would happen but I could concentrate. How would I react? Ive faced worst. Logic flowed through me and I realised a key factor; its not real. That's all I had to remember. The last thing was 4's face swimming out of focus.

I look around, the large cavern style room haunting me. It was in a cave. I heard a small scuttle and turned to find a spider hurrying towards me, pincers out clicking menacingly. Its not real, I whispered to myself and grinned, knowing that I could defeat the spider. In my mind I thought of what would help me; my dagger and cap. I shuffled back to the wall and bent down to retrieve the items, jamming the hat on my head and grabbing up my dagger. The spider continued forwards but I slashed across its body, imagining the spider disintegrating in minutes. That's exactly what happened. More spiders came, and I was surrounded. I would have to fight my way out. I knew that I could but it would still be hard. I backed away to the wall, knowing where it was but finding my foot in mid air. I thought a moment. If I died now, I wouldn't actually be dead, only woken from my fear landscape. I grinned and backflipped off the side, enjoying the wind rushing through my hair.

"Annabeth, that was incredible. 57 seconds, is an all time record. Unheard of." I smiled,

"My mum is the goddess of wisdom, it was basically just brain power that got me out like that."

"Well whatever the case, you did very well, you are free to leave."

I smiled and pushed out the door, heading to get a muffin before putting some training in.

A/N Im sorry. Ive been busy and neglecting my fanfics. I am really sorry. I'll try write more chapters on the weekend. But no guarantees. Anyway! What do you think?
