Let the Flames Begin
I felt like I was on a cloud, my mind was fuzzy and I couldn't tell up from down. I could hear voices, they sounded garbled and I didn't even know what language they were speaking. My senses started to return slowly. I could feel that I was on a bed and the voices were male and they were indeed speaking English. They were talking about "something falling" or whatever and saying "What are we going to do with her?"
When I opened my eyes, my sight was assaulted by harsh indoor lights and the room spun a little. I had no clue where I was or even who I was…well more like I didn't know my past or anything. I knew that my name was Alexis and that I was 22 but that was about it. "Where am I?" I groaned, shielding my eyes from the bright lights.
I could hear people shifting around and when nobody looked I uncovered my eyes. Staring down at me like I was some sort of experiment was three pairs of eyes, two bright green and one piercing blue. "She's alive even after we hit her with the Impala." One of the green eyed guys, with the short brown hair commented, looking suspicious. Good, God! I was hit by a car?
"Not us Dean, you." The other green eyed guy retorted.
"Well technically she hit you…" A gruff monotonous voice came from the one with the blue eyes. He was different from the other two. The two with the green eyes were obviously brothers but the blue eyed guy had dark brown hair, so dark it was almost black and just a different look from the other two.
I groaned because I started developing a migraine after trying to concentrate on the men's conversation. "Well whatever happened or whatever you guys are talking about…all I know is that I feel like shit."
"I don't think she's human." Blue eyes added in his gruff voice.
"No shit Mr. Obvious." The guy named Dean retorted. "She fell from the sky, got hit by the Impala and is still breathing."
"My name's not Mr. Obvious and I meant that I've seen her before. Her name is Alexis and she's important to Michael."
"Can you guys keep your voices down?" I sat up, making the room spin a bit. "And I don't remember anything about this Michael guy you're talking about." I placed my head in my hands trying to rid myself of the dizziness. There was a silence and I looked up from my hands to see all of the guys looking at me. "Okay since you hit me I think you at least owe me your names."
The tall green eyed one answered for everyone. "I'm Sam Winchester, that's Dean, my brother, and then that's Castiel…he's an angel." Castiel? It sounded strangely familiar. I looked at him and had the feeling that I met him before but I couldn't place where.
"Why don't you tell her our whole life biography Sam? Geez, she's in lines with Michael, you don't know what she could be here for." Dean retorted, sounding annoyed with his younger brother.
"I have no clue who this Michael guy you're talking about is." I said starting to get annoyed that they were trying to associate me with this guy and I had no clue who the hell he was. "I barely know who I am. All I know is that my name is Alexis and I am 22 years old, that's it."
"She's obviously not an angel because that fall wouldn't have affected her, and if she was human she would be dead." Sam studied me, making me slightly self-conscious.
"She's Nephilim." Both brothers gave him a confused look. "She's part human, part angel."
"What are you talking about?" I interfered. These guys were crazy there was no way I was part angel or whatever. I was just a normal human who survived a dumbass hitting me with his vehicle. "I don't know what you've been smoking but I'm a human. It's nice to meet you all but I have to go…somewhere that's not here."
I turned around and started to leave but Dean stepped in front of me. "I'm sorry but since you can't remember anything we are obligated to keep you here so we can keep an eye on you."
"Um…I would rather not stay with the person that almost killed me. So if you don't mind, move." I said trying to get around him but failing. He grabbed my arm before I even took two steps.
"One I didn't hit you; you're the one that hit me. And two if you try to leave I will handcuff you to a bedpost." Dean smiled like he would enjoy the action of handcuffing me to a bedpost.
I gave him a smirk, "Kinky but seriously I have to go…I have a previous appointment." I tried taking my arm away from him but his grip just tightened.
"You just admitted that you didn't remember anything but your name and age and now you're saying you had a previous appointment…yeah I think I'm going with Cass on this one." He dragged me to the bed and retrieved a pair of handcuffs from his brother. "Now I'm going to handcuff you to this here bedpost…" He put one around my wrist and then the other side on the bed. "Don't do anything stupid." Dean turned away from me to talk to Castiel. "Watch her." He said and then motioned for Sam to follow him.
I watched them leave the room, the closing of the door echoing in the quiet room. When I turned to look at Castiel he was just staring at me, or rather watching me like Dean commanded him to do. I pulled on the handcuff with the mere hope that it was loose or not all the way closed…nope no luck. "So I'm a Nephilim? How'd you come up with that story?" I asked sarcastically. He was the one that put me in this predicament.
He looked confused, "I didn't make up any stories, Alexis. I do know you, more than I told Sam and Dean." He answered. "You are a very powerful being and not only are you a Nephilim but you are the Archangel, Michael's, daughter." I sat there shocked, no matter how much I wanted to deny it, somehow I knew it was true…I don't know how but I just knew.
"God why did this happen to me?" I banged my head against the post hoping it was all just a dream but knowing it wasn't.
"God has nothing to do with what happened…Michael does. God has been missing for some time and we don't know where he is." He said seriously. "But we're trying to find him."
I just rolled my eyes. "It was just a figure of speech, Angel Boy. So…if I'm a Nephilim do I have any cool powers or anything?" I asked interested in whether I could do anything cool or something that could get me out of the predicament I was in.
"I have heard that you have great powers. But I do not know what they are." He walked up to the bed and stared at me like he was studying something new and interesting. "You are the only one of your kind as far as I know…well the only one of your kind still living."
