Simon had the strangest feeling he was being watched as he shakily opened the door to his home which was unlocked. Simon groaned thinking about what had justhappened, he'd been attacked three times by Vampires! The only reason he was still alive was because it was daylight and he'd been able to get into the sunlight to save himself then the vampires wouldn't follow.

Simon had battled with the idea of calling Clary but in the end what would that make him seem like? A helpless mundane who couldn't take care of himself, that would only prove her opinion of him, Simon felt a stab of hurt thinking about it, a weak, helpless,mundane, that's how they all saw him as.

Simon looked around his home, he wondered where his mum was and where was Rachel? As he was thinking this suddenly, footsteps stormed down the stairs and he was staring into his big sister's furious gaze. Simon had been exspecting a hug or mabye she would fuss over his injury's he'd gotten from the vampires but instaid he got "What the hell are you doing here?!" she snapped.

Simon recoiled from his sister's angry glare "You left! Without a word! What on earth where you thinking! I guess I get it leaving home, mum still thinks your a monster! But why stop contacting me? There was no calls! No visits! I was worrid sick!"

Simon's eyes widened as his mind went into a whirl wind and he felt hurt, Dizzy and confused...his mother thought he was a monster? He'd left Home? He'd left Rachel? He'd left his mother? Suddenly the door opened from behind him and Rachel opened her mouth about to warn him but why would he warn him away from his Mum?

Apart of him didnt belive that his mother thought of him as a monster, she'd taken care of him all his life, this just had to be a misunderstanding that's all.

Simon's mum however took one look at him and her eyes seemed to bugg out and her whole body stiffened and she then burst into the house and then screamed "Stay away from Rachel you demon! Stay away from her!"

She stood protectively infront of Rachel, Rachel gave him a pained and pitying look from behind his mother. Simon stepped backwards almost tripping over one of the chairs and his mum grabbed a knife from the table and pointed it directly at him then did a sign to ward of evil.

Simon felt completely numb inside as he stared into his mothers eyes. All he saw in her eyes was hatred, disgust and fear and it hurt like hell.

With that Simon backed out of the door and it was slammed shut behind him, Simon's knees gave way and everything inside him hurt. An empty hollow feeling inside him was left and Simon couldn't stop the tears come down as he wept for everything he had lost...Rachel, his mother and Clary...everything gone, what type of life did he have in the future?

"You know sobbing in the street isn't going to do you any good mate" A soothing yet smooth and very familer voice said right next to him. Simon jumped up startled to see himself? His future self!

Simon's mouth hung open, Simon looked so similer yet so different, Simon was wearing a black leather Jacket with a white top underneath which wasn't what Simon would usealy wear at all though Simon had to admit it looked very good on him.

Simon's skin was very pale and when Simon steadied Simon when he almost tripped standing up Simon could feel his future selves strength and it wasn't natural the way Simon held him from falling over, it was to gentle as if Simon was a fragile object that could be broken with the slightest touch.

Once Simon was steady Simon let him go and as Simon stared at his future self one word came into his mind as everything seemed to slot together, why Issebellle had given him a sad look, why his mother had called him a monster as the first thing he said and thought of staring at his future self.

"Vampire".
