Moo Shu To Go Part 3

By the time the shadowhunters and their mundane arrived to the port, the sun had set and the night had taken over with a fog that cascaded across the area. Not once did Charlotte complain during their rushing and running. All that was on her mind was reuniting with her brother and Clary. Seeing them being taken and not being able to do anything about it gave her a feeling that she never wanted to feel. Never had Charlotte felt so powerless, and it wasn't something she wanted to continue feeling. If only she was able to help them.

Her chest felt heavy with the thought that something happened to them. Simon had survived vampires, but werewolves too? She didn't have the faith that he would come out unscathed this time. 

"They're going to be fine, Charlie," Izzy says from beside her. The two girls quickly separated from Jace and Alec to find Simon while they would search for Clary. The sooner they got out of there with the two of them was better for Charlotte. All Charlotte desired was to escape the hellish port and get away from any enemies, vampire and werewolf alike. 

"I know." She didn't know if she was saying that to make Izzy feel better or herself.  If Charlotte was being completely honest with them, she was tired. Tired of all of it, and this was her last strike.

She was barely able to watch where she was going. Her eyes felt as if they focused less in front of her as she then started hearing the voices once more. Charlotte. 

"Charlie, here." Her attention turns to the loud ringing that came to her ears. It was Izzy with a concerned look on her face as she took her attention off of the room Simon was being held in. 

Charlotte shook her head and without a second thought to herself, her eyes trained on the bars in front of her and yelled, "Simon!" Charlotte runs over as Izzy takes out her whip. The whip wraps around the bars and with a loud metal thud, it was open. Charlotte peers inside as Izzy comes over, both of their eyes meeting Simon's. "Oh my god, Simon!" 

"I'm getting seriously tired of saving your life." Simon smiles up at Izzy and his sister, relief gleaming in his eyes while they dart between the two girls.

"I am not!" 

Charlotte, tired of the little quips from the two holds out her arm for her twin. "Hurry up and get your butt over here!" 

Simon rushes over, holding up his hand for Charlotte to take. She held back her glasses which threatened to fall off her face, as she pulls him up through the window with one hand. Izzy furrows her brow at the mundane girl, watching as Charlotte started to check over Simon like a pestering mother. Izzy felt wrong, something wasn't right with her, but she shook her head of any absurd thought that may have slipped in. 

Charlotte grabs her brother by his shoulders, looking him over more, tears building up as she did. She didn't say any words to him but her lip trembles slightly causing Simon to frown. "I'm okay, Charlie. Don't worry." She looks up at him into his eyes and hugs him close, causing her twin to hug her in response with a sigh. 

As much as Izzy wanted to give the siblings their moment, they had more pressing things to do. "Come on guys." Charlotte lets go and wipes her eyes of any tears that can possibly escape and turns to the shadowhunter. 

"Yeah let's go before the big bad wolves show up. I would like to not be eaten tonight." Simon sighs. She was back to her most usual sarcastic and joking self. He wraps an arm around her as they walk away from the building and to the middle of an opening. They were surrounded by the various shipping containers and the Chinese restaurant that was occupied by the wolves. 

"Clary!" Simon yells.

"Simon! Oh my god." Simon runs over as does Clary as the two envelope in a hug, overwhelmed by the thought of the other possibly being hurt based on the previous threats.
