"We need to go. Now." His voice was hoarse, but stern. His blue eyes were watery with tears threatening to spill. I looked at him, anger replacing the shattering of my heart.

"Go? We can't leave him!" I yelped, but he grabbed my arm.

"Cesa, he's gone." I could tell he was trying his best to be strong. For me. "You are my number one priority, and he'd want me to get you out of here. We need to get away from this building."

"Okay.." I took a breath. "Dad, you're too weak, we can't just zap out of here.."

"I know." He started to say something, when the doors behind us began to shake. Yelling and pounding came from the other side. He looked at me with something I hadn't seen in his eyes in a long time. Fear. "Run!" He pushed me forward, and I ran.

Through one door and down a hallway. The abandoned building was full of twists and turns, and I had no idea where I was even running to. My head was pounding, my left side on fire from the previous struggle I had encountered. I just went on pure adrenaline and instinct. Reaching another door, the sign above was worn, but I could barely make out "Stairwell Emergency Exit". "Dad!" I glanced back to see him right behind me. I pushed the door open and we ran through.

Down the stairs and outside, I took a deep breath, looking around us. There was an old apartment complex across the street. I looked at Dad, and he nodded. Without a word, we ran toward the building, crossing the street quickly. Though the day was cloudy, it didn't offer us much cover and I just knew we'd surely be caught if we didn't hurry. My legs felt like they weighed a thousand pounds, but I just kept running until I reached the main door of the complex.

Grabbing the handle, I flung the door open and ran inside. Pulling my angel blade from my boot, my eyes darted around, waiting for someone to pop out of the shadows. Everything was darker inside, as the electricity in this building probably hadn't been on in years. "They saw us." Dad was facing the door. I whirled around to see the monsters coming. They may have looked like regular people, but they were far from it. Far from it. "Upstairs, go!"

I bounded up the steps. Two flights of stairs later, I ran down the hall and into a random apartment. Dad shut the door quietly and turned to face me. "What are we going to do now?"

"I need to heal, but there's no time. I'm getting you out of here. You're going to fix everything. You're going to have a life." He said surely, pushing his dark hair back. He was sweating, determination in those blue eyes.

"Wha-what? No way, Dad! I'm not letting you do that! I'm not leav-"

"I made him a promise!" He raised his voice, something he rarely did. I swallowed hard, tears spilling onto my cheeks.

"I lost him. I can't lose you, too." I said, my jaw clenched.

"Don't cry, Cesa." He touched my cheek. "It's going to be okay. Now listen to me.. I'm sending you into another timeline. You can't tell them who you are right away, none of us will probably even believe you. You get in there and you help us the best you can, you live your life."

"Dad, please..." I bit my cheek, trying to keep from screaming. He leaned forward and kissed the top of my head. Pounding began on the door, and he backed away, his hand on my shoulder.

I could feel that odd feeling building up around me, and I knew I would be gone soon. If he had enough strength, which I knew he would muster it up somehow. I hung my head, crying. "I love you, Cesdiel."

"I love yo-" The door burst open, and everything was spinning. I felt sick, as I tumbled. I tried to catch myself, using what power I had left, but to no avail. Suddenly, I could see dim light, and a roof coming at me. "AHHH!" I yelped, tensing up. Bracing for the impact, I landed with a THUD, and rolled. I hit the ground with a THUNK, and pain shot up my back. I groaned, my head and back pounding. Rolling to my left side, I tried to push myself up, but I couldn't. I heard voices behind me, and I tried to lift my head. Everything went black.

I sat up on my elbows, feeling a bit fuzzy, but much better than I had in a while. Rubbing my eyes, I looked around, trying to figure out where I was. The place was oddly familiar in the darkness, and I realized I was at PawPaw Bobby's house. My eyes skimmed over the room, as I pushed myself up off my elbows, sitting up straight. Footsteps made me jump, and I looked over to see Bobby walking through the doorway.

"She's awake!" He called, eyeing me suspiciously. "Who are you, girl?"

"Bobby..." I was shocked to see him again. I hadn't seen him in so long. More footsteps were coming closer, and a voice called out that made my heart began to hammer in my chest.

"She is? Great, I'd love to know who the-"

"Da-" I jumped up, immediately shutting my mouth. I stared at him as he appeared in the doorway. "Dean!" I breathed, walking over to him quickly. I grabbed him in a hug, holding onto him tightly.

"Whoa, whoa..." He said, his voice unsure. I tried to keep the tears at bay, but one slipped from my eye as I buried my face into his chest. He was frozen, and I knew he was probably unsure of what to do, having a total stranger latching onto him. I let go, backing away. I wiped my face quickly with my sleeve, my eyes meeting his.

"Hey." I said quietly.

"Who... Who are you?" Dean asked gruffly, but his voice had a gentle tone. His eyes were a mix of curiosity and confusion, and Bobby was watching me with narrowed eyes.

"My name is... Cesa." I shifted my weight. "I know this is going to sound crazy, so just hear me out.. I know you all, you're...family to me." I explained, watching their expression become even more confused. "I know you two have no idea what I'm talking about. I'm from a whole other timeline."

"How the hell did you wind up here?" Bobby asked, looking at me as if I were crazy. "Here, drink this." He thrust a shot glass at me, filled to the brim.

"Holy water shot. Nice." I muttered, taking the glass. I downed the shot and grinned. "Not a demon."

"Then what are you, exactly, because teenage girls don't just fall from the sky." Dean growled.

"She's... Half angel." Another voice made my eyes widen, as Cas stepped in the doorway.

"Cas!" I yelped, darting toward him. I hugged him softly, unable to hide the smile on my face.

"This isn't good." He muttered. "Why are you here, who sent you?"

"You did." I replied quietly. "It's a long story."

"Well, you better start explaining." Dean demanded, and I nodded, sitting down. They had no clue who in the world I was, and I knew it was going to take quite a bit of convincing for them to know I was a good apple.

"Okay.." I looked at Dean. "In my time, everything is all screwed up."

"Not much of a change." Dean muttered, and I frowned.

"What does that mean? Where's Sam?" I asked, realizing he wasn't there. No... No, he's supposed to be here, right? He's supposed to be here, he's not supposed to be dead.. Things are supposed to be different..

"He's... Busy." Dean answered, his tone with an edge of sarcasm.

"Oh, thank God.." I breathed. "So, he's alive?"

"Yes." Castiel was watching me with narrowed eyes.

"What do you mean, "So, he's alive"?" Bobby asked, and I looked at him, then to Dean.

"In my time, Sam's dead. He was dead before I was born." I replied. "Azazel didn't get him killed?"

"Yeah, but.. I made a deal and brought him back."

"A deal?"

"He traded his soul." Castiel explained. "A crossroad demon is-"

"I know what a crossroad demon is!" I said surely. "What the hell..."

"Hey, watch it." Dean growled, but he looked just as surprised as I did by his words.

"Sorry, I just... Everything's so different."

"How so?" Bobby asked.

"Azazel got Sam killed... From how the story was told to me, Dean tried to make a deal, but they wouldn't do it. The crossroad demons said something about a vision and Lilith rising. Sam releasing Lucifer... The world ending." I looked at Cas. "They didn't want that, so they refused. But... Everything went bad anyway. Real bad." I looked down.

"Bad how?" Cas questioned.

"Dean... You kind of went on a rampage, and the demons rose up against the angels because they were fighting to start the apocalypse. The world just went to shit, everything just fell apart.." I explained.

"I can tell you've been through it by that vocabulary of yours." Bobby mumbled, and I frowned.

"How old are you, anyway?" Dean questioned, his eyes on mine.

"Fourteen." I said quietly.

"Damn.." Bobby shook his head.

"The angels were trying to figure out a way to control you two," I looked from Cas to Dean, "so, they made me. They just kind of shoved me off on you guys when I was born. You all raised me, but... The angels used me against you. They would threaten to kill me if you didn't comply with their orders. But we stopped letting them push us around a long time ago." My eyes were on Dean's. "We fought back... And now I'm here." I looked at Cas. "You sent me here to save me. It worked."

"Well, things aren't much better here." Dean informed. "Lucifer is out."

"Oh, damn." I gaped. "What? How?"

"Sam killed Lilith, because he thought that was what we were supposed to do. It released the bastard." He explained.

"That's...insane." I muttered, shaking my head.

"How do we know you're telling us the truth?" Dean asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Okay, how about this... Bobby's always calling you an idjit. Your favorite song, it's a tie. 'Ramble On' and 'Traveling Riverside Blues'. Your mom used to tell you that angels were watching over you when you were a kid. Bobby's favorite word is "balls", Cas can drink everyone under the table... Right before John died, he told you to watch Sam, and that if he went dark side, you had to do what you had to do... Anything else?"

Bobby and Dean exchanged surprised glances, and Cas appeared slightly confused. I watched the men before me, as they seemed to struggle with what to say. Dean turned to look at Cas, who gave him a glance as if to say, "I don't know, what do you think?" The angel's eyes darted back over to mine, his expression curious. "Well, as far as the truth about who you are... I guess we'll find out."
