Dean's Clan Begins
This story takes place directly after Things Are Never What They Seem. You should read that story first. Dean and Sam continue hunting with the elves. Living with elves complicates their lives more than Dean ever imagined.
Chapter 1
After the poltergeist had almost killed Dean, everyone was exhausted. If not for Nessie and her blood, Dean would have died. They wanted to take a break. They were close to Bobby's. Dean thought it would be a good idea to go to Bobby's for a rest break. He wanted to introduce Nessie and Alex to Bobby. He had called Bobby when he found Nessie and Alex because Bobby had helped Dean search for them and he wanted Bobby to know that they were now safe.
Dean called Bobby to see if they could swing by his place for a break. Bobby was very excited to meet Dean's girls. He had to inform Bobby that they traveled with a cat, but it was so well mannered he probably wouldn't see it. Bobby said that was fine. He got a room ready for Nessie and Dean and he hoped that Sam and Alex would be okay to share Dean and Sam's old room, since there were two beds.
While Bobby was putting new sheets on the guest bed for Dean and Nessie, there was a loud knock at this door. Bobby was surprised because he thought he had another half hour before they got there. Of course, with Dean driving, he guessed he shouldn't be surprised.
He went to the door and was shocked with the sight that he saw. It wasn't Dean and Sam. It was John Winchester. Oh, this was just great. He didn't think John was going to be okay with Nessie and Alex. Bobby knew they were elves. He also knew that John hated anything supernatural and Nessie and Alex definitely fit the bill.
"Well, John, what are you doing here?"
"I need a place to crash for a few days. I broke my leg on my last hunt. I was hoping I could crash on your couch."
Bobby looked down and saw that John's leg was in a brace from foot to hip. He also had a cane, but before Bobby could answer, they heard the impala outside. John's eyes lit up at the thought of seeing his boys. This was a surprise. Bobby rolled his eyes. Boy, this was going to be interesting. Bobby walked and John hobbled with his cane out to greet the boys.
As they pulled up in the impala, Dean and Sam saw their dad's truck. Dean considered turning around and leaving. He would give Bobby a piece of his mind for not letting him know their dad was there, but It was too late to leave. Dean told them to keep quiet about them being elves. He told them to follow his lead. Nessie and Alex could feel the tension rolling off Dean. He didn't want to lie to his dad, but he knew that his dad would be furious that he was married let alone life mated to an elf.
Dean got out of the car slowly and opened the back door for Nessie. Dean saw her face and could sense her fear. He gave her a kiss on the cheek. Sam opened the door for Alex. Nessie and Alex moved to stand behind the guys. They were terrified. They could feel the tension in the air. Nessie also knew that John Winchester hated elves and had even killed one before.
"Hi. Dad, we're surprised to see you here. We've been looking for you everywhere." John hobbled forward and hugged Dean. He saw Nessie and wondered who she was. Sam walked over to their Dad and hugged him too. Alex stayed right behind Sam with a fist in the back of his shirt. Sam could feel her trembling. He reached back and took her other hand in his to try to calm her.
"Hey. Dean. Sam. Who's with you?"
Dean took a deep breath and stood as straight as he could, but his dad was still taller. "Well, uh, Dad, this is Nessie, my wife and our daughter, Alex."
John did not believe what he was hearing. Dean was married??? He was shocked. "What the hell are you telling me?"
"I'm married, dad. This is my wife and my daughter."
"That girl looks like she is 15 or 16. How the hell can she be your daughter? And what kind of name is Nessie? That is the name for the Locke Ness Monster."
"Dad, why don't we go inside, sit down and talk about this, calmly."
As John made his way into the house, Bobby walked over and hugged Sam. Sam introduced Alex to Bobby. Bobby could tell that she was very frightened. He smiled big and put his hand out for her to take. He knew enough about elves to know that once she took his hand, she would be able to tell that he would be safe. "Well, I'm so glad to finally meet you." As she shook his hand, she felt only love and acceptance from Bobby, so she hugged him. She liked him instantly. She now understood why Sam and Dean spoke about the man so fondly.
Sam and Alex got all their bags. Bobby said that he would show them where they would be sleeping.
Dean and Nessie held hands and followed John into Bobby's living room. They sat side by side on the couch and John took a chair. They felt like teenagers that had been caught making out. John waited for Dean to explain himself.
"Her name is Vanessa. Nessie is just a nickname."
Dean proceeded to relate the story to John. He didn't mention elves, but he did tell him that Alex was conceived while he was in high school so that John would know that Alex was his grandchild. John was shocked and disappointed in Dean and he told Dean how disappointed he was for his lack of judgment. Dean took the criticism without complaint. He didn't mention Nessie healing Sam. Dean told him how he didn't know about Alex at the time and that they only recently found Nessie and Alex. Once they were found, he couldn't let them get away, so he married Nessie.
"How can you marry someone? Have you lost your mind? You're a hunter. You can't drag some woman and her kid from job to job. This is not what I trained you to do. I trained you better than this."
"Dad, you drug me and Sam everywhere with you, so I should be able to take my wife and child with me."
John interrupts Dean. "How do you know the kid is yours? She looks to be at least 16. That would make you 11 when she was born."
"She's mine. Yes, we had a test done and she is mine. I was having sex long before you found out and she's a lot younger than she looks. If you would look closely at her, you would see that she has my eyes and mouth. Sam thinks she looks a lot like me." Dean yelled back.
"Watch your tone with me, boy. You can't talk to me like that. I'm still your father."
John could not believe Dean. He did not believe that the kid was his and even if the kid was his, Dean shouldn't have married the mother. John stared at Nessie. John couldn't put his finger on it but there was something up with her. He thought that there was something about her eyes. She wasn't normal. John's supernatural radar was going off. Nessie did not like John's scrutiny. She found trying to make herself as small as possible and move behind Dean.
"Nessie and Alex are staying with Sam and me. They help Sam with research and they help with other things."
"I bet they do."
Dean was feeling very protective of Nessie and Alex. He couldn't take what his father was insinuating. "Dad, you don't understand. Nessie and I are mated and that is all there is to it. End of Story." Nessie sucked in a breath. Dean did not realize that he said mated instead of married. Nessie hoped John was too upset to hear.
"What did you say? You said MATED not married?"
Emotions moved over Dean's face before he could blank his face and John saw it all. Nessie looked at Dean with sympathy; she knew that John would now guess their secret. He would know that she was a supernatural being.
"You said mated. She's not human is she?" Dean hung his head. Darn his dad. He was just too perceptive.
"Okay. I won't lie. You're right she isn't human. She's an elf, but it doesn't change anything. She is still with me and Alex is still my daughter." Dean stood up in front of Nessie to shield her from his father. John rose to his feet. He was clearly furious.
"Oh my God, Dean, what were you thinking? You can't mate with an elf. You're human. If you had to be married, why not a human girl and not some creature?
"She is NOT A CREATURE. I LOVE HER. JUST LIKE YOU LOVED MOM."
John moved faster than Dean thought his dad could with his broken leg. He punched Dean across the face. "How dare you. Don't you ever speak about your mom and your Elf Whore in the same sentence?"
Dean flew at his dad and hit him with a right cross. John touched his lip and saw blood. Bobby, Sam, and Alex were standing in the doorway watching the exchange. Sam moved to stand between Dean and his dad so they couldn't hit each other. Alex moved behind Bobby. This was almost as bad as back at the enclave.
Sam wanted to stop the fight, which was a new role for him because usually Dean was the one that got between Sam and his dad. "Hey guys, let's not fight about this."
They both ignored him.
"You can't call her that. She is not a whore. She is the most decent person that I know. She is loving and caring. She loves me and Sam."
"What is wrong with you? How dare you hit me? It's like she brainwashed you. You would have never hit me before." Suddenly, John knew what the problem was with Dean's behavior. "OH GOD! T-Tell me, you haven't drank her blood. Please tell me you didn't."
"YES, I did. "
John sat down heavily. He put his heads in his hands. He never should have left Dean all those months ago. Sam's Jess might still be alive and Dean would still be human. Maybe Dean could still be saved. "How long? Has the change started yet?"
Dean looked at his dad. "It doesn't matter how long. The change has already begun. I feel better than I have ever felt. I'm stronger and faster."
"I asked you how long?"
Dean signed. "It's been almost a month."
"Well, good, you can still be saved."
"Dad, there is nothing to save me from. We are together and I can see that no matter what I say, you are not going to accept this. I'm tired. Come on, Nessie let's go to our room." Dean took Nessie's hands and pulled her up. He took her hand in his and started walking toward the stairs.
John was good at hiding his thoughts. It had helped to keep him alive. John had to save his son. If it's only a month, then all he had to do would be to get that thing away from Dean. She wasn't human, so he could just kill her. He looked up. Dean was almost to the stairs. John pulled his gun from behind his back. Before, anyone could stop him he shot Nessie in the back. She spun just in time to keep the bullet from hitting her heart. The bullet tore through her left lung and chest. Her blood splattered the wall and Dean.
Alex screamed and ran to her mom. Nessie clutched her chest and slowly crumpled to the floor. Sam saw his dad turn the gun on Alex. Sam jumped in front of Alex and Nessie. Dean was cradling Nessie in his arms and begging her to heal. Bobby grabbed a gun and pointed it at John.
"Get out of the way, Sam. I have to do this, so that you and Dean can go back to normal. They aren't human. MOVE!"
"No, Dad. I'm not going to let you shoot them. They're innocent. They haven't hurt anyone. They've been helping us save people."
Bobby held a gun on John. "Put the gun down, John. Drop it."
John refused to put the gun down. He kept it pointed at Nessie and Alex.
Since the bullet passed through, Nessie was able to heal quickly. She was so angry that she lost control. She pushed Dean away and stood. Her face warped into the furious elf face just like she did with Malcolm. Dean was worried. "Nessie, sweetheart, calm down, please. It's okay."
Nessie looked at Dean. Her eyes turned the cobalt blue. Energy seemed to crackle from her. "No. Dean, no one shoots me and tries to shoot our daughter."
She walked toward John. He was terrified, which was an emotion he rarely felt. He fired the gun, but the bullets fell to the ground harmless. Her laugh chilled Dean to the bone. "Nessie, please stop."
She pointed her hand at John. He was thrown into a wall and raised up the wall, so that his feet were off the floor. His gun and knife clattered to the floor. John struggled to break free.
"What are you? You're not an elf. Elves can't do this."
"Oh, I'm much more than an average Elf." Nessie laughed cruelly.
"Nessie, let him down. You don't want to do this. You can't hurt him, please sweetheart."
"Dean, he shot me. SHOT ME and he wanted to kill our daughter. He deserves whatever I want to do."
"CHRISTO." Yelled John.
"I'm not a demon. You're an idiot. Christo, CHRISTO, CHRISTRO. See nothing happens." Nessie giggled. She was starting to enjoy this way too much. A wind began blowing through Bobby's house. Papers and books were blown around the room. Dean moved in front of her and took her face and made her look at him. "Nessie, this isn't who you are. You are better than this. You need to let him go."
Dean was looking very intently, which made Nessie falter. The wind died down. She lowered John so that he could touch the floor, but she kept him pinned against the wall. Dean was relieved; he was getting through to her. "That's my girl. Let him go, babe. You don't want to hurt him."
Nessie smiled sadly at Dean. "I'm sorry. I lost control. Are you mad?"
"No baby girl. I could never be mad at you." Dean gently kissed her forehead. "Now, you need to let him go the rest of the way."
John watched the exchange between Dean and the elf. He could see the love and devotion between them, but he just couldn't accept Dean with an elf.
Nessie's face went back to her human form. Her eyes returned to their warm green. She walked over to John and looked at him with a piercing stare. She shook her head. She knew that Dean was right. She wasn't going to murder him. She would give him a peace offering.
"Well, John Winchester, I'm going to let you go, but first I need to know if you are going to hurt me or my daughter."
Dean stood behind Nessie and placed his hands on her shoulders. "Dad, are you planning to hurt my family, my clan?"
"I won't hurt them, but I will never be able to accept them as family."
Nessie nodded. She could live with that. "All right, John Winchester, I will let you go but first…." Nessie smiled at Dean. He knew what she was going to do. He nodded his approval and smiled at his dad. Nessie still held him pinned to the wall. "I need a little of your blood, John Winchester."
She pulled John's face down so that she could reach his mouth, he was almost as tall as Sam. She bit his lip.
"What the hell did you do?"
Nessie ignored him. She bit her lip and grabbed John's face. She forced their lips together to mix their blood. John struggled against her, but he could not pull out of her grasp. John didn't want to do it, but he swallowed some of her blood anyway. He felt dizzy and light headed. Nessie rubbed her hands and then placed them in front of John's broken leg. A golden light radiated from her hands to John's thigh. "This will hurt but relax and I'll fix you."
John struggled. He felt intense pain in his leg and gasped. The pain kept increasing and increasing. He couldn't stop her and he felt like he was going to pass out, but then the pain was gone and all he felt was a warmth seep into his leg. The feeling was almost orgasmic. He involuntarily closed his eyes and moaned. He felt himself become involuntarily hard. He could not stop the feelings coursing through him, but before he had release, the pleasure stopped. He opened his eyes to see Nessie collapse. He was suddenly released from the wall.
Nessie was unconscious. Dean picked her up in his arms and looked at his dad. He didn't say a word and took Nessie to their room. He knew she needed rest.
