It was a typical night for the Winchester brothers; a chaotic calm enveloped the forest as the duo spread
out to cover more land. Dean let out an audible sigh as he held his gun by his side, he could sense
something was near, but wasn't quite sure what it was. His hunting instinct was sharp, it always has
been, but tonight it seemed to be on edge-almost erratic. Pressing his back to a tree, Dean cautiously
leaned his head around to scout out as far as his vision could reach. Nothing; no movement, no sounds,
this wasn't normal for a forest in the middle of the northwest to be so… dead. Un-cocking his gun, Dean
slowly placed it back into the lip of his jeans. "Jesus Christ, you scared me!" As soon as Dean turned his
head back around he found himself face to face with a woman of an almost exotic beauty. Of course,
Dean was instantly back on the guard and started to reach for his gun again until he realized that this
strange woman was naked. Tilting his head slightly, and wondering where Sam was, Dean blinked a few
times before reaching out towards her to see if she was alright. She shook her head quickly and started
to back away. "Hey.. no I'm not gonna do anything to you." Dean turned his head slightly to call out to
his younger brother. "Sam? Sam, where the hell are you?" The girl gasped before falling to the ground
and began to writhe. "Dea-what the hell?" Sam had begun to run towards his brother before seeing the
scene that was before. Slowing to a stop, Sam wrinkled his forehead before looking between Dean and
the girl. Dean had a strong look of shock and confusion as he stared at the girl and then towards his
brother. Sam slowly side-stepped around the girl and stood next to Dean, "Dean, what's going on?"
Dean shook his head before looking back at the woman. "I-I don't know. She wasn't here and then she
was and then you came and bam! She's on the floor like a fish out of water, I don't know, Sam." Dean
would never admit it, but Sam knew that he was now in a full-blown panic. Trying to calm the situation
down, Sam shrugged off his jacket and reached down towards the woman to wrap her in it and to turn
her on her side in case she vomited. "Dean she's freezing cold, it's no wonder she's seizing out on us."
Dean raised a brow before leaning down near his brother, "is that even a word?" Sam clenched his jaw
at how unsympathetic his brother was being and Dean just gave him a half-hearted smile. Sam tore his
attention back onto the woman to realize that she was completely still and was staring up at the
brothers with wide-eyed curiosity. Sam bit his lip before glancing at Dean, who shrugged, and then back
towards her. "Um.. hi, I'm…" Sam hesitated on whether or not to use his real name "… Gary and this is
my brother, Jack. What's your name?" The woman shook her head slowly before very quietly replying,
"Atia." "I'm sorry, what?" Dean leaned closer, which made her jump and grab ahold of Sam. "Hey, hey,
it's okay, he's not going to hurt you." She turned her bright blue eyes onto Sam and shook her head
before slowly looking back at Dean. Making a hissing noise she moved closer to Sam which caused Dean
to throw his hands up and to back away. "Uh.. S-Gary, a word?" Dean cleared his throat while eyeing the
woman and walking over towards a tree. Sam pried himself from Atia and made sure she was
comfortable before making his way over to Dean. "Well she's obviously crazy." Dean raised a brow and
placed his hands on his hips making him look hunched. Sam frowned and looked over at her, watching
as she carefully inspected the jacket, even smelling it. "I don't know Dean, I think she's just.. lost, I
mean… look at her… she almost reminds me of Cas." "Dude, she freakin' hissed at me. Cas never did
that. Plus, how do we know she isn't what we are hunting?" Sam looked down at the dirt before
shrugging, "I don't know, I just have this feeling that she isn't dangerous." Dean frowned before looking
over at her, "Alright fine, but you're taking care of her. I'm not going to be the one taking her for walks".
"She's not a dog, Dean." Dean shrugged as a response before stalking towards her, causing Atia to jump.
"Get up, I'm letting Garykeep you, but one mistake and back to the woods you go." Sam rolled his
eyes while Atia looked between the two brothers with slight fright. "He's kidding, come on, I'll help you
up." Sam leaned down and helped her up before realizing she was completely exhausted and picked her
up to carry her to the Impala. Dean was already in the driver's seat by the time Sam got Atia in the
backseat. After Sam climbed into the passenger's seat, Dean started the car and began to drive back the
motel. They rode in silence until they reached the main rode from the forest. Surprisingly, it was Dean
who spoke up, "Just letting you know, that if you seize out in my car, I will kill you, and this time I'm not
kidding." Sam gave Dean a reprimanding look before turning to look at Atia, "Just ignore him, trust me,
it's better to do that than to feed into his ego constantly." Atia only watched the two boys before
nodding slowly. Dean made a grunting noise before shifting in his seat and keeping himself focused on
the road. Sam smiled softly at her before turning back to look out his window. They continued like that
until Dean pulled into the shady motel. He had half expected the girl to think they were serial killers, and
to be honest, in some ways they were, but who was he to brand labels? Sam turned to fully look at her
and smiled encouragingly "I know this looks a bit crazy, but this is just where my brother and I live. By
the way, my name's not really Gary it's-" "Sam." At this point Dean had parked the car and was already
heading out before he stopped to stare directly at her. "How did you..?" He instantly looked to accuse
Sam who looked just as shocked. "You are Sam Winchester, correct?" Atia paid no attention to Dean as
she stared directly at Sam who merely nodded. "Good. I am here to help you." She titled her head
before smiling.
