I lied about taking day or two... I will get chapter two and maybe three up really soon to, but after that it is kind of rough. But the idea for 1-3 came to me pretty quickly so instead of being mean and making you wait I decided to go ahead with it. So, part four… here we go…

Speeding Cars

Chapter 1: The Dark

(Dean POV)

It had been a week, and nothing. There was nothing left of Annie other then what was in our apartment.

The first two days I had tried to find some way to get her back. Sam, Gabi and Dad had all helped. But there wasn't anything. The only way for Annie to get out was for her to do it herself. Therefore I had no clue whether or not I would ever see her again.

So for the past five days I had stayed in the apartment drinking, sleeping and crying. I was helpless in a world that I used to have control in. I was angry at things that I had fought to protect. Nothing was right. And this uncertainty was killing me… literally.

(Sam's POV)

"We have to do something." I told Gabi. There was no telling how many times that phrase was said in the past week. Truthfully, we had done everything in our power, but we didn't want to give up.

"What Sam? She is gone, we have gone through every key hole, and every crack. There is no way we are going to be able to get her back! She is the only one who can get out of there and she has no clue how to!" Gabi exclaimed. She was hysterical again.

"What if we didn't try to get her out… what if we just tried to get to where ever she is so we could tell her how to get out?" I suggested. Gabi looked at me and stopped crying for a second.

"Do you think we could?" She asked. I shrugged.

"It's the only thing we haven't tried… we might as well give it a shot." I said. She nodded.

"I will go do some research on the powers and try to find out exactly what it was that took Annie, you go try and talk to Dean." She said. I nodded and started to leave before she stopped me.

"Wait… Sam?" She said sadly. I turned back to her.

"Yeah?" I asked softly. She ran up to me and wrapped her arms around my neck. I pulled her close and let her cry for a second in my arms. I kissed the top of her head before she pulled back and looked me in the eye.

"I love you… ok?" She said. I laughed a little.

"Of course it's ok considering that I love you to." I said. She smiled and kissed me softly.

"I just want to make sure you know it… especially now." She said honestly.

"Don't worry, I know." I told her. "And hopefully you know that I feel the same way."

She nodded and hugged me one more time before we went our separate ways to try and get back someone who belonged to us.

(Dean's POV)

One more day passed. I think it was almost my birthday, but I had lost track of everything. I knew it wasn't like me to be so weak, but there was nothing I could do this time.

Well, except what Sam had suggested, and I would do it. In fact I was working on it right now, or was about to. But that would mean me going into the guest room.

So much of Annie was in that room. She had made it into our library office/her personal closet. I didn't know if I could take it. But I needed things from there, things that might help her. So I sucked everything up and walked inside.

The walls were written with her. Her computer was still on and her guitar was sitting by the desk. I slowly walked over and moved the mouse to the laptop.

She had been recording. All of her sound equipment was out and her digital mixer was pulled up. From the toolbar it looked like she had been recording a lot.

Her voice would be on these. With a click of a button I could hear her again. With out any hesitation I pulled up the window labeled 'song1' and pressed play.

It wasn't her singing, but she was talking… to me.

"Dean, if you are listening I am really glad you found this. If you have then it probably means that this thing we have been trying to hide from has gotten me. Otherwise I would have never ever let you hear this part of my recordings." She was breaking. I could hear the tears. But she stayed strong. "I love you. God Dean, I love you so much. You have no idea what this is doing to me. So I'm sitting here, with you out with Sam doing what I think is bachelor party planning, and I am wondering what I should say and how I should say it…"

She trailed off for a bit, collecting her thoughts probably.

"I wish… I wish I was better at speaking words, singing them and writing them I am fine with. But I get so tongue tied and caught up in my thoughts that half of the time things just come out and I don't even mean them to. And even though what I am trying to say to you is something supposedly so simple and short. But I guess it is the person you are saying it to that makes it difficult." She quit being strong, she let go of that part of her and I could hear her crying. "I'm trying to tell you goodbye. But I don't want to. I don't want to sit here and imagine what my life would be like with out you. Dean, you were my first everything. I never loved anyone before you, I never slept with anyone before you, and the obvious thing I never married anyone before you. And I wouldn't take any of that back for anything."

I had started to cry again. Even though I couldn't see her in pain, I could hear it and I still wanted to make it go away.

"I never thought I would ever have any kind of future with a guy. To be quiet honest I was never one of those 'optimistic' girls when it came to guys. Up until you my relationships had been crap. I had pretty much given up hope until you came along. And now… you are everything. I can finally see the future I wanted with someone who is perfect for me. You are just that person. You always surprise me, you always make me smile, every day is a new adventure and I can never wait until the next. Life has never felt this amazing before. You don't hold me back and you don't try to change me… you love me for who I am. I never thought anyone could do that." She stopped for a minute. "Don't ever forget me. But don't dwell on me. If I can't be saved, then just let it be. My final wish would be for you to be happy. So if I leave for good…move one. Because if I remember correctly, I have been told on more then one occasion that there are tons of girls out there wishing that had what I do. Find one that you can give a chance to. Because even though I know you will never admit it, you are very good at being a one girl kind of guy. So be happy. Please. The rest of these recordings are songs, just little things on my mind."

Her voice was fading off, but then there was one last thing before the recording was done.

"I love you forever."

Then it was gone. She always had a lot on her mind and I knew that was probably the abridged version of her thoughts. But hearing her voice made me want her back even more and I didn't think that was possible. I pushed away my pain and my tears and grabbed my phone to call Sam.

"Hey Dean…" He answered. I could still hear pity in his voice.

"Got anything new?" I asked coldly.

"Umm, a little bit. Why don't you go up to our place. Gabi is there and I will be in a couple of minutes. We can all talk and figure out a plan when I get there." He suggested.

"Ok, I'm going." I said before hanging up. I locked the door and walked up the stairs and around the corner to Sam and Gabi's apartment.

Gabi was sitting on the living room floor with Annie's spell book in hand.

"Where did you get that?" I asked.

"She gave it to me a couple of days before…." Her voice trailed off, but we both knew what she was talking about. "She said if she was taken that I may need to look in here to find something. The only problem is I can't use any of it so I don't see why it would matter."

"Why can't you use it? I mean potions and stuff can be made by anyone." I said.

"Yeah, but Annie left a note. Apparently the things in this book are pretty upscale. Only people with actual power can use them." She told me.

"Then why would she give it to you?" I asked.

"Clues I guess. This book has more then just magic. It also tells about certain spirits and things that a witch out need to know about. There are some things about the good powers to and I think I found out what the huge white hole was." That got my attention.

"What is it?" I asked intently.

"A portal, the powers open it and it supposedly takes their victims some place for an initiation into their world. They are the only ones who can open it though." She said.

"So they are initiating Annie? For what?" I replied.

"To be one of them. She would still be a witch, but would use her powers off of the earth in kind of a heaven like scene. It's an alternate universe that looks out for ours. These powers only come to our universe if the absolutely have to, and since Annie is knew I doubt they will just let her leave." Gabi told me.

This wasn't looking good. And we all wanted her back, and I wasn't giving up until we did.

(ok this is very short… they next one will be longer I promise but I really just wanted to get it started and off the ground.)
