Jace and Alec where breathing heavily, Jace had put a supporting hand on his brothers shoulder and Alec was close to tears. "Look at me Alec." said Jace "It was a demon, a shape shifter okay? We need to stay focused and strong." After a quick nod from Alec the boys turned and left the room, as the door closed behind them they hoped there memories of the last few minutes were also closed behind them. The boys where now back in the corridor, with a beep from the elevator they turned to see Maryce and Joclyn stepping out behind them. "Where's Issabelle?" Alec asked. "She will be down soon we didn't all fit in the lift." Jace quickly interrupted "Shhh I can hear something." The shadowhunters fell silent. Coming from behind one of the doors was a low hissing sound.. "Demons" Alec Whispered, he turned to Face his mother "Wait for Issabelle we will go ahead." and before Maryce could answer Jace and Alec moved to the next door and pushed it open...
The room initially appeared clear but Jace knew there was something wrong. The boys stepped through the door way ready to fight. As they stepped into the room the door slammed shut behind them. back to back the boys spun around expecting to find someone there but the room was clear. Jace walked back over to the door and rattled the handle, "It's locked " he said. Jace tried to barge the door open but it didn't budge. "Somebody is playing games with us" but before Alec could reply a pricing ringing noise exploded out in the room. The shadowhunters clutched their ears as the sound echoed around the room. Pain pulsed in their brains Jace lost all his sense of balance and crumpled to the floor. Alec tried to move to his brothers side but his legs collapsed from underneath him. 'Jace, Take me hand. Channel the strength of our bond!"Alec shouted. Jace crawled across the floor and outstretched his arm, Alec shuffled forwards Jace and gripped his hand. "Don't let go!" he shouted.

Maryce and Joclyn remained in the corridor waiting for Issabelle. When slowly one of the doors creaked open Jocyln was the first to walk down the corridor just as the elevator beeped and she could hear the doors open. However she didn't look back she stepped into the next room and was instantly grabbed by a very large demon. Little did she know that It wasn't Issabelle who came out of the elevator, instead it was a man who cupped his hand over Maryce's mouth and quickly pulled her backwards into the elevator disarming here of all her weapons.
Joclyn tightened her grip on her serph blade and lent her back against the wall putting all her strength into her stride as she drove the blade through the demons chest. With her heart pounding against her chest she closed her eyes and inhaled 3 large deep breaths. Eventually she opened her eyes and looked around the room she was stood in. Tears welled up in the back of her eyes and heart ache stabbed her in the chest. She was stood in the glamorised version of her daughters room. Hope pulsed out of her. "Clary? Clary!" she shouted but there was no response. She run towards the bathroom door and flung it open but the room was empty. After realising that Clary wasn't there Joclyn quick ran out on to the corridor and looked for Maryce, but couldn't see her. Joclyn paced up and down the corridor with nobody else in sight.
...
The sound bounced off all the walls. Alec and Jace clung on to each other with every ounce of strength they had. The floor started to quake below them and the ringing sound was quickly replace by the sound of rubble and rocks smashing against each other. Jace lifted his spare hand and wrapped it around his head to protect himself. The sound instantly stopped but the ringing still echoed in the shadowhunters ears. Slowly Alec pulled himself into a sitting position. "Jace you need to see this..." Jace sat up.
"How the hell?" he asked. The room they were in has changed it was no longer a empty room with only one door, now the room had 5 doors which where all identical. "What the bloody hell do we do now? How can we find her in this mad house?" Jace protested. He stud up and walked towards the they came in through and yanked it open. Behind the door was a red bricked wall and nothing else. "Jace we need to make a plan. we don't know what's behind these doors we can't just open them like that. " Alec stepped towards his brother and reached out to place a supportive hand on his back but quickly decided not to, knowing that his brother would only push him away.
"And what do you suppose we plan to do Alec. waste time in her being careful? we have wasted enough time already all whilst that psychopath has My Girl Friend. My pregnant girl friend Alec!" Jace screamed. He clenched his hands into fists and raised his arm ready to punch the wall, but before he could Alec grabbed his arm and pulled him backwards. "Jace stop!" he shouted. "Your only punishing yourself Jace. You get upset, you punch walls when you get upset because your scared of your own emotions Jace!" Alec shouted. He let go of his brothers arm and placed his hands on his shoulders. "You need to focus Jace!" Jace didn't reply.
Alec stepped away for Jace giving Jace some time to calm down. After a few minutes Alec began to speak again. "We need to take them one at a time, anything could be behind them. You ready?" Alec asked. With a nod of Jace's head they quietly stepped towards the next door. They stopped and listened for a moment before Alec slowly twisted the door handle and pushed the door open. After a few seconds Alec was the first to look into the room. Alec moved to step forward but Jace quickly pulled his brother back. "Alec look" as Alec peered down and realised why Jace had pulled him backwards. In the room Alec was about to step in to had no floor, it was a bottomless pit. If Alec had of taken one step further forward he would have fallen to his death.
