I took out the sword Jace had given me, throwing his behind my back and slamming it into his back. Isabelle got up from the floor running behind me, I took the sword out and turned around noticing there was a crowd gathered around me.

"Fuck" I cursed out. Alec was towards my left and the only person that I couldn't find was Jace. I looked around through the crowd and found him, being held against the wall by a knife.

I knew I needed to act fast. The crowd began to rush forward and I swiftly did what I do best.

I didn't think.

Alec, Isabelle and I made are way through the crowd. Within minutes, I could reach Jace, the guy was still holding him to the wall.

Walking up towards them, I took out the gun. I stepped on my toes, to reach the guys head. The medal hitting his head made him loosen up on Jace.

"Be so kind, and put that away?" I stated pulling the guy off of Jace. "Number one rule? Don't walk away from you guard?!" He stated walking past me taking out his knife now.

"And number two, don't let them leave without a kill!" He stated stabbing the guy that was now inches from me holding the same knife.

He grabbed me by my arm, and yanked me forward through out the institute. "I wasn't going to let Isabelle get killed!" I stated he just scolded me even more.

"She could have handled herself!" He stated defensively. "Yeah well I'm sorry but there all I got! I wasn't going to let them die because of my own shit!" I stated, raising my voice now at him.

"Exactly! You would have killed yourself in the damn process!" He raised his voice back up at me. I shot daggers into his eyes.

"I didn't though did I? I actually saved your ass!" I stated walking in-front of him now.

"By being utterly stupid! You almost got me killed! And jeopardized yourself again in the process! Yes you saved my ass! But that doesn't make a right!" He huffed out throwing open the door of the institute.

I caught it and slammed it shut. "Yeah well if you want to act like such a dick then I'm going home!" I stated walking the other direction he took.

"God, where are you going!" He stated following after me.

"I'm legging it!" I stated crossing my arms, while continuing walking.

"Are you that daft! Your coming with me!" He stated walking faster to pick up the pace. "Exactly like I said, you want to act like a dick! I'm going home!" I stated yelling now.

He tugged me by my arm and brought me back to look at him. I was getting upset now. All of it started to sink in and before I knew it I cracked and started crying.

"The funny thing is, is that I don't even know why vampires came into the institute.. I have no memory of my parents. And I've lost the only thing that would tell me?"

"So if your going to, bring me somewhere I will absolutely hate, and be upset the whole time I'm there at least bring me somewhere I know I'm safe, and I know is home!" I said to him getting out of his grasp again.

"Or otherwise I'll ho alone.!" I stated putting the hood back up, and continuing on my walk, down 9th street.

I heard footsteps coming from behind me, and I knew he'd gave in.

He walked beside me after awhile.

There was no comfortable silence it was just silence.

"Do you know why they were there?" I asked him.

"No, I don't.. but I'm guessing it for a simi good reason?" He stated holding the bag now towards his side. I realized I still was gripping onto the sword he had given me.

I offered it back to him and he just shook his head saying. I'd most likely need it, more often than he would.

"If I let you pick where we go? Can you at least tell me?" He crossed his arms falling in my footsteps. "My old apartment? I've left many things there and it be nice to go somewhere no one knows about?" I shrugged.

~~~~~~~~

Once officially turning down into alleyway, I loosened my grip of the sword. I noticed I didn't have a key, so I lifted up the doormat.

Unlocking the door, it was exactly how I left it. Jace threw the bag down on the small sofa. I raised my hand up to touch my face, but Jace quickly took it in his.

He snatched it and turned it towards his with holding a bite. I looked up at him confused.

"It's not a demon bite... I'll be fine?" I stated taking my hand out of his grasp. He took out his phone and dialed a number.

"She's been bitten?!" The voice rang out on the phone, clearly very angry.

"Alright I'll do that, but talk to her so she knows exactly what will happen!" He stated handing me the phone.

I stuck it up to my ear and the voice rang out.

"Somehow you need to get the venom out of your arm.." Alec rang out through the phone. "Okay and how exactly do I do that!" I stated warily my legs continued to bounce while sitting in a chair.

"Your gonna need Jace to suck it out of your arm.." he stated firmly. Before I could protest Alec hung up on me.

"What happens if you swallow it? And why can't I just do it myself?" I asked him.

"I won't swallow it, and you haven't done this before? So you'll swallow it?" He stated waiting for me to hand him my wrist.

Looking down at my wrist, I could see it changing color. A deep purple and blue, it was violet.

"Listen, this is for both of ares safety you won't die, and I won't be blamed by Isabelle." He stated trying to make me laugh.

I held out my wrist hesitantly..
