Kyra watched as her Mum was thrown around the room, at only nine years old she was still only young. Lisa, Kyra's older sister who was adopted by Kyra's Mum pulled Kyra away into the very corner of the room. Lisa tried to open the door but it was locked. Kyra pulled herself into the corner tighter and watched as her Mum tried to fight this thing. Trina, Kyra's Mum fell to the floor and looked towards her two daughters. They were the last thing she saw before she took her last breath and her heart stopped beating. The thing that had killed the two girls' mother turned and looked at them before evaporating into a black smoke and filtering out through the floorboards. Lisa stopped pulling onto the door handle and ran over to Trina.
Lisa who was thirteen knew she was adopted and still called Trina by her name.
"Trina!" she shouted. "Wake up" she shook Trina's shoulders desperately. After a few minutes of silence Lisa turned and looked at Kyra with tears in her eyes. They heard shouting from down stairs and they knew that their neighbour Mr. Snow had heard their screaming. Lisa went to the door and shouted for help.
"Mr. Snow we're up here, help us"
Kyra was still pushed into the corner; she was shaking and going into shock. It was no surprise, she'd just witnessed her Mum be torn apart by a monster. The next thing she knew was that their neighbour Mr. Snow was carrying her out the house and loads of Police cars were pulling up and ambulances. The paramedics went into the house and came out ten minutes later wheeling a trolley with a black body bag. Kyra knew that was her Mother and that she'd never see her again.
Kyra's Father was John Winchester; he only made contact with her and her mother a few times a year to see how Kyra was doing. The social services managed to track John down by some of the letters he'd written to Kyra. She was going to be living with John now and Lisa was going back into care. Kyra hated to be split up from Lisa but they were only kids, and adults were in charge of their lives. John picked Kyra up from the care home in Memphis to live with him and his two other sons in LawrenceKansas. Kyra watched from the window as he pulled up and cut the engine. He sat in the car for a few seconds before walking up to the care home door. The head care assistant Clair welcomed him in, Kyra sat in the living room and the two adults walked in. Kyra looked up at her Dad before standing up and rushing over to him. John bent down and hugged his daughter tightly. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face into his neck. John picked Kyra up and said goodbye to Clair. He carried her daughter out to the car and put her into the front seat next to him.
"I'm sorry for what happened to your Mother Kyra"
Kyra didn't answer but only nodded. She hadn't spoken much since what she'd witnessed. John had been told of this by the care home and he had no idea how to talk to his daughter. That's why he'd barely made contact with the girl and left her with her mother. But now Trina was dead and he was Kyra's only family, but she also had his two sons. John had been married to a woman called Mary Winchester and with her he'd fathered to sons. Sam and Dean, Dean is fifteen and Sam is eleven. With Kyra only being nine he hoped Sam would help her settle.
"Do you know what sort of car this is?" he asked Kyra.
She shook her head.
"This" he said stroking the wheel. "Is a vintage 1967 Chevrolet Impala, one of a kind. One day when you're old enough I'll teach you to drive and you can have a go in the Impala. Although I've promised my oldest son Dean the car but you'll get a go" he finished and looked at Kyra.
She just nodded once and looked ahead. She was so small, she could barely see over the dashboard. He couldn't help but smile. She had that look, the Winchester look. In a way he thought she looked a little like Sam, but she was also very pretty. He patted her shoulder.
"I know your scared, heck I'm scared" he said and Kyra turned to look at him with sad eyes. "But" he continued. "I'll look after you"
There was silence and then Kyra spoke.
"It was my fault" she said quietly.
"What's you mean?" John asked frowning.
"It was my fault that that thing attacked my Mum"
"No it wasn't, you had nothing to do with it" John said.
"But, it was in my dream. I saw it and then it came to life"
John looked at his daughter as she started to cry again.
"Kyra, it wasn't your fault"
"What if it comes and finds me?" she sobbed. "It might get you, or Sam and Dean. And then it'll kill me"
"What ever it is, it will not get you Sam or Dean. And don' worry it won't get me"
"What is it?" Kyra asked.
John sighed; he'd also left Kyra with her Mother because he didn't want her to live his life. The life he was leading along with Sam and Dean. They fought creatures of the night, creatures that nobody believed in. He was apart of a secret society along with many others that are normal to the eye. The Hunters as they're called fight the Supernatural. He'd been fighting the Supernatural since a demon had killed his wife Mary. He'd vowed to find and destroy what had killed her and he had a suspicion that what had killed his wife had killed Trina too. It took a day and night to drive Kyra back to where he was staying with Sam and Dean; they arrived in the middle of the night. Kyra was cold and tired; John wrapped a blanket around her shoulders and directed her to a motel room. When he opened the door quietly and looked in he could see Sam asleep in bed and Dean sleeping on the sofa. John looked down and trod carefully over the line of salt by the door, he told Kyra to do the same. She looked around the room with wide eyes; she was scared and afraid of what was going to happen. John put Kyra's bag down and led her over to the empty bed which Dean wasn't sleeping in. He pulled the covers over and lifted Kyra into the bed.
"Go to sleep" he whispered and brushed a piece of Kyra's dark hair of her face. She nodded and closed her eyes, John stayed next to Kyra till her breathing became even and he was sure she was asleep. John's eyes started to close but he was shaken awake when his phone vibrated in his pocket. He stood and looked around at his three kids all sleeping soundlessly. He went over to the door and stepped out side quietly.
He answered his phone and heard the voice of Bobby Singer.
"Bobby what's up?"
"What the hell are you doing John?"
"I don't now what you mean"
"The girl"
"How'd you know about that?" John said defensively.
"What hunter doesn't, John you can't bring the girl into this"
"Her name is Kyra"
"I don't care"
"Bobby, I had no choice. Trina was killed and I couldn't leave her abandoned"
"But leaving her with someone else is better than the life your gonna give her. I mean what ever she wants to be now doesn't matter, vet, fashion stylist, fairy princess. It all goes out the window."
"I won't make her hunt; it'll be up to her"
"And how will Sam feel about that"
"He'll have to deal with it"
"And how's Dean gonna feel, to him she's just another kid to look after when your not around which is most of the time"
"She is Dean's little sister, he'll look after her like he does Sam. Now are you finished having a go at me?"
"I've got a case for you" Bobby said calming down.
"Okay then" John said.
After John got of the phone he turned around and saw Dean standing behind him leaning against the wall.
"Who's the girl Dad?" he asked blankly.
"Dean"
"Yeah hi to you too, who's the girl sleeping in my bed?"
"That's Kyra"
"And"
"She's my daughter, your step-sister"
"You have a daughter what the hell, why didn't you tell me?"
"Dean…"
"No Dad, I'm fed up of secrets"
"If you let me speak I'll tell you"
Dean sighed and looked at his Dad.
"Her name is Kyra, her Mother was killed a week ago and she's still pretty shaken up about it"
"What's she doing here?"
"She's going to be living with us now; I need you to look after her when I'm not here"
"Which is all the time, Dad I'm not a babysitter?"
"Dean Kyra is your sister like Sam is your brother, do you remember how you felt when your Mum was killed"
Dean looked away and nodded.
"Okay then we have an agreement" John said.
"I ought to ask for payment" Dean said.
"Nice try kid" John said putting his arm around his son's neck.
They walked back into the room and John looked over at Kyra sleeping.
"So like, is she with us for the rest of her live?" Dean asked.
"Yes she is, I need both you an Sam to protect her"
"Are you gonna make her a hunter?"
"No, she can do what she likes"
"So why can't Sam do what he likes, you know he don't wanna be a hunter"
"He is my son and I want the family business to be passed down"
Dean nodded and the two were silent for a few minutes.
"So her name is Kyra"
"She's nine"
"She's nine, anything else I need to know like, food allergies?"
John laughed. "You'll have to ask her that, and be careful about what you say to her"
"Got it, how long are you around for?"
John looked down at his phone.
"You gotta go now?"
"Sorry"
"Sam is gonna be gutted that he didn't see you"
"Tell him that I said hi" John said picking up his bag and going out the door.
Dean watched his Dad leave and then tuned back around and sighed.
Kyra opened her eyes and stayed hidden under the sheets with fear. She remembered where she was, John had brought her here last night. She remembered he had too other sons here called Sam and Dean. Kyra remembered her sister Lisa; she wondered where Lisa was now. After a few minutes Kyra pulled the covers down slowly and looked to the side, Sam was gone out the bed and she couldn't hear any noise. She sat up slowly and pulled her hand through her hair.
"Hi" said a light voice.
She looked quickly to the sofas and saw Sam looking at her; he had a pleasant smile on his face. Kyra couldn't see Dean. Sam came over to her and sat on the end of the bed.
"My name's Sam, what's yours" he asked.
"Kyra" she said quietly.
"Hi Kyra, did you get here last night. Was Dad with you?"
Kyra nodded. "Dad picked me up a few days ago, my Mother…" she trailed of.
"Sorry, Dean told me about that"
"Where is Dean, where's Dad?"
Sam looked at her with a confused face for a second.
"Oh you mean John; he's out on a job. Its weird thinking I've got a sister"
"A job?" Kyra asked confused.
"Yeah you know supernatural stuff" Sam said picking at the bed sheet.
"What'd you mean" Kyra asked.
"Uh oh" Sam said. "Was I supposed to tell you that?"
Kyra shrugged her shoulders.
"She'd find out sooner or later Sammy" Dean said coming in with a bag of food.
Kyra looked at him and he looked at her.
"So basically monsters exist and Dad fights them" Dean said.
"Dean" Sam said
"What" he said looking at his brother.
There was a pause and then Sam looked at Kyra.
"Any questions don't be afraid to ask" Sam said.
The next step was school; the three were enrolled in a school in the area. Dean had that I don't care ora about him. Sam was just your ordinary kid and Kyra was a terrified mouse. Dean had his hand on Kyra's shoulder as he walked with her to her class room.
"Okay Kyra, don't tell anyone about what Dad does if anyone asks he's a mechanic. If anyone gives you bull, come find me" he said.
Kyra nodded and gripped her bag tightly. Dean knocked on the door and the teacher came.
"Hi, this is Kyra she'd new" Dean said.
"Hello Kyra" the teacher said. "My name is Mr. Daniel but just call me sir"
"See ya later Kyra" Dean said and loped of to find his class.
"Okay Kyra come meet the class" Mr. Daniel said.
Kyra stood at the head of the class with all the other kids looking at her.
"Guys this is Kyra Winchester, say hi"
"Hello Kyra" the other kids groaned.
"If you go sit over there" Mr. Daniel said pointing to an empty seat.
Kyra walked over to the seat but one of the other girls stuck their foot out and tripped her up, she caught her cheek on the desk. The other kids fell about laughing and Mr. Daniel rushed over to Kyra.
"Are you okay Kyra" he said.
She nodded and put her hand to her cheek.
"Would you like to visit the nurse" he said as she stood up.
"No sir" Kyra said slipping in her seat.
"Okay well if you get dizzy just let me know"
Kyra nodded and pressed her sleeve to her cheek, when she pulled it away there was a line of blood on her sleeve. She replaced the sleeve and kept it there till the bleeding stopped.
Kyra managed to get through the rest of the morning without crying although she'd nearly burst out in tears in every lesson. At break she got pushed and shoved in the halls and then she went through the same torture again. At lunch she bought a muffin with the little money that hadn't been stolen from her and she sat on her own on the field. There she found it safe to cry into her lap.
"Kyra what's up?"
When she looked up she saw Dean and a girl running towards her. He bent down to her and looked at her cheek.
"Damn what happened?" he asked.
"A girl tripped me up and I caught myself on a desk" Kyra said as Dean held her chin in his hand.
"Perhaps we should take her to the nurse" the girl said. Kyra looked up at her and then at Dean.
"Kyra this is Tracy, Tracy my little sister Kyra"
"Hello Kyra" Tracy smiled.
Kyra nodded and then looked at Dean.
"I hate it here Dean" Kyra said.
"You've barely been here five hours" Dean said.
"That's enough for me" Kyra said looking down at her muffin.
"Is that all you've got?" Dean asked looking at the tiny cake.
Kyra nodded. "My money got stolen" she whispered. Dean held his anger as he handed Kyra his sandwich.
"Where's Sammy, he was suppose to be looking out for you" Dean said.
As Kyra and Sam were only two years apart Dean had expected Sam to keep an eye out for Kyra but obviously he hadn't.
"Dad's gonna kill me when he sees your cheek" Dean said. Kyra walked along next to him as they made their way back to the building. Dean made sure Kyra got to her class and then he and Tracy were there when she finished.
At the end of the day Kyra was sitting in the Impala and Dean was leaning against the bonnet. Kyra was sitting behind the steering wheel.
"I'm gonna drive this one day" she said with her hands on the steering wheel.
Dean snorted. "Who said?"
"Dad"
"Yeah sure he did" Dean said sarcastically.
"He did" Kyra insisted.
"I believe you" Dean said looking for Sam. When he saw him he sighed.
"What is it?" Kyra asked leaning out the window.
"Dad is defiantly gonna kill me" he said as Kyra saw Sam. He too had a bruise on his cheek. When he got closer he looked at Dean and Kyra.
"What the hell happened to you?" Dean asked Sam.
"Nothing" Sam said getting in the back of the Impala.
"Well it sure looks like something" Dean said getting into the drivers seat as Kyra scooted over.
"You two could be twins" Dean said. Kyra looked back at Sam and they both got on eye full of each others bruises.
"I'm in trouble" Dean said turning the Impala to the motel and seeing that John's car was there.
A Few Years Later
"Don't go Sammy" Kyra said as Sam stormed out the motel room.
"I can't stand it anymore Kyra" Sam said. "I hate it"
"Where are you going to go?" she asked.
"Away, to University" he said "I've been given a scholarship"
Kyra looked at him with tears in her eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she asked.
"Cause…" he hesitated as Dean came out.
"A scholarship, Sammy why didn't you say anything" Dean said.
Sam paused. He looked from Dean to Kyra.
"This life" he said "It's not mine, I don't want it. I want to go to University"
"What and settle down and have a family" Dean said.
"Yeah" Sam nodded.
There was silence and then John's voice broke the silence.
"So go ahead, but know that if you go. You are no son of mine"
"Dad" Kyra said.
"Fine" Sam said and turned around.
"Sam!" Kyra called and he paused before turning around. "What about me, and Dean" she said before a few little tears dropped.
Sam came back and hugged Kyra tightly; he hugged Dean as well and walked away.
"Well I hope you're happy" Kyra said to John. "Look, aren't you going after him"
"No" John said looking down at his daughter.
"He's your son" she choked out.
"Not anymore" he said getting into his monster truck and driving away leaving Kyra and Dean standing in the rain.
"Well that ends it" Dean said walking over to the Impala.
"What, where are you going?" Kyra called after him.
"Dunno" Dean said revving up the engine and driving away.
Kyra stood there for a few moments and then ran to the 1967 Mustang John had given her after her and Dean had had a fight over the Impala. She started the engine and raced of the way Sam had gone in. She spotted a talk lanky figure walking in the distance and she knew that it was Sam. He had his thumb out as he was trying to hitchhike. Kyra smiled and pulled up in front of him, she looked in the rear view mirror and saw him smiling. He ran to the passenger door and looked in the window.
"Where'd you need to go?" Kyra asked.
"Stanford University" he said as he climbed in.
A Few Years Later
Adam started to play the guitar; he was a pro at it. He looked up into the smiling face of Kyra.
(Everything Burns Anastasia ft Ben Moody)
"Wow, your getting better" Adam said putting the guitar down.
"I have a great teacher" Kyra said leaning over and giving Adam a kiss, he kissed her back. Kyra pulled away and got up, Adam watched her go.
"You know that's not enough" he said. Kyra turned around with a smile on her face.
"Oh I know" she teased as she went into the kitchen.
Adam smiled and chased her into the kitchen. Kyra stood on the other side of the counter ready to run at any move Adam made.
"I'm gonna get you" he said smiling slyly.
"Only if you can catch me" Kyra said and ran around one side of the counter, Adam countered and caught her in his arms. Kyra struggled against his strong grip.
"Gotcha" Adam whispered in her ear. He gently kissed her neck and cheek.
"Adam" Kyra said laughing. "Stop it, you're like a grizzly bear but instead of wanting to eat me you wanna kiss me"
"Who said I didn't want to eat you" he said nipping gently on her ear.
Kyra squirmed and then looked up at the clock and gasped.
"What?" Adam asked looking as well.
"It's late"
"Late, one o'clock isn't late"
"It is for me, before I met you I used to get to bed at ten so I could be up early the next morning"
"But admit it going to bed late and then waking up at eleven in the next morning is better"
"No, its not"
"But waking up to me is"
"I suppose so" Kyra said giving in and kissing Adam. "I wanna go to bed" Kyra said tiredly and rubbing her eyes.
"Okay princess" Adam said picking Kyra up in his arms and carrying her to the bedroom. He basically threw Kyra on the bed and then jumped next to her. He pulled her into his arms and Kyra snuggled into his shoulder.
"I love you" she whispered.
"I love you too" Adam said and closed his eyes.
Kyra opened her eyes, she was always a deep sleeper so what woke her must have been loud. She looked and saw that Adam was still fast asleep. Kyra sat up and listened, she could hear whispering and movement in the living room. She got up and reached under her bed for the salt rock gun and silently got up. She held her breath as she tip toed to the living room. Kyra had very good senses and she could clearly see two dark figures standing in the living room with their backs to her. The gun clicked and they both spun around.
"Get the hell outta my house" Kyra said pointing the gun.
"Kyra" said a voice she knew all too well.
"Dude I told you this was the right house" Dean said smugly to Sam.
Kyra walked to the lamp in the corner of the room and tapped it on to its lowest setting. Then she turned back around to see Sam and Dean standing in her living room.
"What in the name of fudge are you doing here?" she asked crossly.
"You don't sound too pleased to see us" Dean said walking to the kitchen and looking in the fridge. Kyra dismissed him and looked at Sam.
"Why aren't you at Uni?" she asked going forward and hugging him. Sam hugged her tightly back.
"For the same reason we woke you up" he said.
"Gimme some love" Dean said with a beer in one hand and a chicken wrap in the other. He wrapped his big arms around Kyra's neck and squeezed her tight.
"Do you want anything to drink or eat Sam" Kyra asked.
"No thanks" he said looking around the room, he just happened to look up at the ceiling and saw the devil's trap.
"Expecting someone" he said. Dean and Kyra followed his gaze.
"Good girl" Dean laughed with a mouthful of food.
"It's always good to be prepared" Kyra said. "Take a seat guys"
Dean and Sam sat down on the black leather sofa.
"Got yourself a nice get up" Dean said looking around the room.
"Yeah, things have finally settled down"
Sam and Dean looked at each other and then back at Kyra.
"But I have a feeling that's all gonna change" She sighed.
"Dad went on a hunt and he hasn't come back in a while" Dean said.
"What's that got to do with me?" Kyra asked leaning back in the chair.
Sam looked at Dean who was glaring at Kyra.
"I can't believe you!" he shouted standing up.
"Kyra?" She turned around and saw Adam standing in the door way.
"Adam" Kyra stood.
"Sam what are you doing here, and who's that?" he said coming forward.
"Adam this is Dean my oldest brother"
"It's nice to meet you" Dean said reaching his hand forward. Adam shook his hand and rubbed his eyes.
"Can someone tell me why you are here in the middle of the night?" Adam asked confused.
"Don't worry Adam, they were just leaving" Kyra said taking his hand. Dean looked down at the couple's hand.
"So are you telling me that you won't help us look for Dad?"
"Wait John's missing" Adam said. Adam had met John a few times but only briefly.
"He's not missing" Kyra said.
"Still I think you should go, I mean he is your Dad" Adam said.
"Thank you" Dean said "So can we go?"
"Just give me a sec" Kyra said going back into the bedroom, Adam followed. Kyra got dressed and started to pack a bag of stuff.
"How long will you be gone" Adam asked.
"Not sure, but I'll let you know soon" Kyra said.
After a long cuddle and kiss Kyra and Adam went back into the living room. Sam and Dean were ready and waiting.
"Look after her" Adam said "I want her back in one piece"
"Will do" Dean said going out the door.
"We'll be in touch" Sam said.
"I love you" Kyra said and Adam hugged her.
"I love you too, be careful"
After their goodbye Kyra followed Sam and Dean to the Impala and Adam went back to bed.
"So what's going on?" Kyra asked from the back of the Impala. She was still tired from being woken up.
"Dear old Dad went on a hunt and I haven't heard from him since" Dean said.
"Kay whatever, Sam how's Jess?"
"Oh, Jess is good thanks"
"And Uni?"
"Things are going alright at the moment"
There was silence and then Dean spoke up.
"Adam seems nice"
"He is" Kyra said not wishing to linger on her personal life. She'd gone to great lengths to get as far away as possible from her old life. Two years had passed and she'd thought she'd never be sitting in the Impala again.
"So here we are the old team back together, the three musketeers, the three amigos" Dean said.
"The three blind mice" Kyra laughed quietly to herself.
"Yeah well I have to be back at Uni in two days, I have an interview" Sam said.
"That's excellent Sam" Kyra said. "You should full on go for it"
"Yeah well" Dean said. Kyra smiled as she knew that Dean didn't want that life for Sam. He wanted Sam to be like him and Dad, whereas Kyra wanted Sam to have the normal life he so clearly wanted.
"And what about you little Kyra, what's going on in your life?" Dean asked in fake happiness.
"Well, there's just Adam" Kyra said.
"And…" Dean said wanting to know more.
"That's it now shut up!" Kyra said defensively.
Dean pulled the car up to a gas station in Jericho, California. He filled the car up and went into the shop.
"I wish Dean would shut his cake hole" Kyra said.
Sam laughed and Kyra looked at the back of his head.
"What's so funny?"
"You are Dean are so much alike" he said.
"No we're not, we're totally different" Kyra insisted.
"What ever you say" Sam said as Dean came back. Sam was in the middle of looking through Dean's music collection.
Dean came back with his arms full of food. "Breakfast" he asked with a mouthful of food.
"No thanks" Sam said. Meanwhile Kyra sat with her head leaning on the back of the seat.
"Anyway how'd you pay for that stuff, you and Dad still running fake credit card scams?"
"Yeah well hunting ain't exactly a pro ball carer, besides all we do is apply. It's not our fault they send us the cards" Dean said.
Sam laughed and Kyra smiled.
"And what name did you write on the application this time?" Sam asked.
"Umm, Verdafomian and his son Hector. Scored two cards out the deal" Dean said getting into the car.
"Sounds about right" Sam said glancing at Kyra who rolled her eyes.
"I swear man you gotta update your cassette collection" Sam said looking in the music box.
"Why" Dean asked innocently.
"Well for one their cassette tapes, and two Black Sabbath, Motorhead, and Matallica. It's the greatest hits of mullet rock"
Dean snatched a cassette tape out of Sam's hand.
"Yeah, house rules Sammy. Driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cake hole"
Kyra smiled as that was what she'd just said to Sam about Dean.
"You know Sammy is a chubby twelve year old, its Sam okay"
Dean revved the car up and old rock music boomed out the speakers.
"Sorry can't hear you, music's to loud" Dean smiled and pulled the Impala out into the road.
"What about AC/DC" Kyra said.
"Yeah now we're talking" Dean said head bobbing to the rock beat.
"So where we headed" Kyra asked realising she had no idea of what they were doing.
"People have been going missing on road seven"
"What's so strange about that?" she asked looking out the window.
"They were all men and it's been going on for twenty or so years, one after another" Sam said passing her a load of papers on men who'd gone missing on this road.
"Okay so what'd you think?" Kyra asked.
"What do you think?" Dean asked.
"Dunno killer prostitute, so do you think Dad…?" Kyra said.
"No it's not a killer prostitute and even if it was, Dad wouldn't sleep around" Dean said defensively.
"He fathered me didn't he?" Kyra asked.
Dean didn't reply and Sam cleared his throat awkwardly.
They pulled up at a bridge that had been the latest in the mystery of the disappearing men. A boy had been killed and his car had been found on this bridge. Dean rummaged in the dashboard and brought out their old I.D cards.
"You kept these" Kyra exclaimed taking hers and studying it.
"Yeah, I knew you might need it again someday. And that day is today" he said getting out the car.
Kyra and Sam followed his lead and got out the car, they caught up with Dean and they walked up to the police officer on the case.
"FBI" he said showing his fake I.D card. Kyra and Sam did the same.
"What are the FBI doing on this case?" the officer asked.
"It's just routine" Sam said smiling, "So what's the theory" he asked walking around the car. Dean and Kyra also inspected the car for anything strange.
"Honestly we don't know" the officer started. "Serial murder, kidnapping ring"
"Well that's exactly the kind of crap police work I'd expect outta you guys" Dean started and both Sam and Kyra stamped on his feet.
"Thank you for your time" Kyra said.
"Gentlemen" Sam nodded.
The policeman watched them for a second and then went back to work, Kyra walked next to Sam who was shaking his head the whole way. When they were a bit away Dean smacked the back of Sam and Kyra's heads.
"Ow" Sam said hushed
"What was that for?" Kyra rubbed the back of her hand.
"Why'd you gotta step on my feet?" Dean asked.
"Why'd you gotta talk to police like that?" Sam retorted.
"Come on" Dean said stopping in front of the two. "They don't really know what's going on. We're all alone on this and if we're gonna find Dad we've gotta get to the bottom of this thing ourselves".
Sam and Kyra gave him a look and Dean turned around to see the Sheriff and two FBI agents.
"Can I help you boys, mam" the Sheriff said while starting at them through sunglasses.
"No sir, we were just leaving" Dean said turning around. "Agent Mulder, agent Skully" he said as the two FBI agents passed them.
The three decided to head into town as they heard that the boy who was killed named Troy had a girlfriend called Amy. They found her putting up missing posters of Troy.
"Hey are you Amy?" Dean asked.
"Yeah" she said while plastering a poster to a wall.
"Troy's girlfriend" Dean continued.
"Hey are you okay" a friend of Amy's said patting her shoulder.
"Yeah" she said to her friend and then turned back to the three siblings.
"Yes I'm Troy's girlfriend" she said tearing up.
"We wondered if you could tell us when you last saw Troy" Kyra said.
"We were on the phone; he was driving back from a party. He said he'd call me back but he never did" she said wiping her tears away.
"Do you mind if we ask you a few more questions" Sam said gesturing to a café on the other side of the road.
"Troy was an ordinary guy" Amy said in tears and her friend patted her shoulder to comfort her.
"I like your necklace" Sam said pointing to the charm around her neck. She picked it up between her fingers.
"Troy gave it to me; you know to scare my parents with all that devil and evil stuff"
The necklace had the shape of a pentagram on it.
"Actually it's just the opposite, it's supposed to deter away evil" Sam said.
Amy nodded and looked down at the necklace. Her friend then spoke up.
"Don't you think it's weird that he disappeared on that road though, I mean the legends?"
"Don't be silly" Amy said.
"No go on" Kyra said.
"Well they say that a girl haunts that road, she hitchhikes and then the people who give her a ride are never seen again"
"Thanks you've been very helpful" Sam said.
After saying thanks and goodbye to Amy and her friend the three decided to go to the library to do some research. Kyra hit the local newspapers from years back to when the funny stuff happened and the boys went to the computers.
Dean starting by typing in 'Female Murder Hitchhiking' in Google and got nothing, then he tried 'Female Murder Centennial Highway' and got nothing again.
"Lemme try" Sam said reaching forward.
"I got it" Dean said tapping his hand away.
Sam then pushed Dean's swivel chair away and Kyra laughed shaking her head at the two brothers.
"Dude" Dean said as Sam moved in front of the computer. "Such a control freak" Dean said hitting Sam's arm.
"So angry spirits are born on a violent death, right?" he asked Dean.
"Yeah" Dean replied board.
"Then maybe it's not murder" Sam said typing in 'Female Suicide Centennial Highway' and got one result saying 'Suicide on Centennial'.
Dean raised his eyebrows and Kyra came over leaning on the backs of the chairs. Sam clicked on it and got a page on the girl.
"Constance Welch" Sam said.
"What does it say?" Dean asked.
"It says that one day her two kids were in the bath and she left them and when she came back both where dead. Then says she jumped of a bridge"
"Okay then, the bridge it is" Dean said getting up.
"Cool, we're getting somewhere" Kyra said thinking about what Adam was doing.
***At the bridge Sam and Dean got in a heated argument.
"I gotta be back at Uni in two days Dean" Sam said.
"Don't you care about Dad; all he wanted was for you to be like him, a hunter."
"But what about what I want, I never wanted this life"
"So you wanna get a job settle down, get married and have kids. Does Jessica even know about you and hunting?" Dean asked.
"No, but" Sam started but Dean interrupted.
"Kyra, does Adam know about our family?"
Meanwhile Kyra started the investigation on the bridge. "He doesn't and I'll tell him when the time is right" she said.
"Dean if it weren't for pictures I wouldn't even know what Mum looked like. Face it Mums gone and isn't coming back" Sam said. Dean suddenly lunged at Sam pinning him against the side of the bridge.
"Hey, hey cool it" Kyra said running over.
"Don't ever speak about Mum like that!" Dean shouted.
"Uh Dean" Sam said looking to the left, Dean and Kyra followed his gaze and they saw Constance standing on the side of the other bridge. She looked at them and then jumped. The three ran to the side where she'd jumped and looked over the edge.
"What the…" Kyra whispered frowning.
Suddenly headlights appeared at the end of the bridge, the three moved into the centre and looked at the car totally dumbfounded.
"What the…" Dean said mirroring what Kyra had just said.
"Who's driving your car?" Sam asked.
Dean put his hand in his pocket and brought out the keys, Sam and Kyra looked at the keys and then back at the car.
Suddenly the car raced forward, "Go, go" Sam said as they started to run. The car chased after them and Sam made a headlong jump over the side of the bridge without thinking Dean and Kyra followed his lead and the car stopped.
"Sam, Dean!" Kyra shouted from her perch on the bridge. When she'd jumped she'd managed to grab a hold and pull herself up. A few feet away Sam pulled himself up.
"You alright?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, you" Kyra asked pleased to see him.
"Yeah, where's Dean" he said looking into the stream bellow.
"Dean!" he called.
"Dean!" Kyra called also.
"What!" they heard his voice from bellow they looked down and saw him dragging his way up the bank.
"Hey, are you alright" Sam shouted down.
He put thumbs up, "I'm super" he said. Kyra looked closely and saw that he was covered in gunk. She snorted and smiled; Sam looked at her and smiled too. The two climbed their way over the bridge ledge and when they got to the Impala Dean was already there looking around in the boot.
"All alright?" Sam asked him.
"Yeah whatever she did to it seems alright now" Dean said in a husky voice. "That Constance chick, what a bitch!" he shouted. Kyra laughed and nudged up closer to Sam. He put his arm around her shoulder as he and Dean perched on the boot of the Impala.
"Well she doesn't want us digging around, that's for sure" Sam said looking out into the night.
"So where's the chug on from here genius?" Sam asked and Dean put his arms up and then down in an exaggerated shrug. Dean flicked his fingers and Sam and Kyra sniffed the air, looked at each other and then at Dean.
"You smell like a toilet" Sam said.
Dean didn't answer as he looked down at himself.
The three got to the nearest motel, Dean spoke to the person behind the counter.
"One room, three beds" Dean said "Or two beds and a sofa" he said smiling as he handed his credit card over. The receptionist guy looked at it and then back at Dean.
"Are you another one of those agents" he asked.
"What'd you mean?" Dean frowned.
"Another one of you came through here and booked a room for a month"
Dean looked at Sam and Kyra and then booked another room; he managed to find out the number of the room booked for a month. Sam managed to pick the lock as Dean had a suspicion that it was John who'd booked the room, Dean's suspicion was right and when the three went into the room it had newspaper clippings and printouts pinned to the walls everywhere. Sam went over to one wall, studied it and laughed.
"Dad figured it out" he said. Kyra went to the wall and looked as well.
"Woman in White?" she said reading a bold headline. "Dad's also written that she takes and kills unfaithful men"
"Dad would have destroyed the corpse" Dean said standing next to Kyra.
"Maybe she has another weakness" Sam suggested. He looked at a copy of the page they'd found in the library.
"It talks about Constance's husband" Sam said passing the piece of paper to Kyra who looked at it.
"Perhaps we should go see him" she suggested. "You know to find out where she was buried"
"Good idea" Dean said "Good thinking Velma" he said while patting her head.
"I'd rather be Velma than Daphne" Kyra said. "I suppose your Fred" she said to Dean.
"And Sammy can be Scooby"
"Funny" Sam said getting his laptop out.
"Well I'm going to get some food, you coming?" he asked.
"Yep" Kyra said.
"Sammy" Dean asked going to the door.
"No, I'm gonna to some research"
"Okay" Dean said rolling his eyes to Kyra as the two went out the door. They got halfway through the car park when they saw the motel owner talking to some police officers. He pointed over to Kyra and Dean who turned around.
"Busted" Kyra said.
Dean pulled his phone out and alerted Sam to make a run for it. After he hung up the two turned around.
"Hello officer" Dean said to one as the other went to the motel room where Sam was hiding.
"So fake US Marshall, fake credit cards. Have you got anything that's real" the officer asked Dean.
"My boobs" Dean smiled and Kyra laughed out loud.
"My dick" she added.
The next thing was the two had been arrested and taken away to the police station.
Kyra had no idea what was happening to Dean or if Sam had gone to see Constance's husband. The police investigator did his best to try and interrogate her but after trying many different times he gave up and went to speak to Dean. While she sat alone in the enclosed room she thought about what Adam was doing. Probably with his mates playing music or he might be taking the elderly neighbours dog for a walk. He was good like that, always thinking of other people other than himself. Kyra couldn't wait to solve this hunt, find their Dad and get back to Adam.
Twenty minutes later there was a tap on the window and Kyra looked around. Dean was stood outside and together they prised the window open and Kyra slipped through the gap.
"How'd you get away" Kyra asked as the two scaled down the building.
"With this" Dean said showing her a bent paperclip.
"And how did you get that?"
"From this" he said showing her a journal that was full to the brim. When the two landed he handed it to her. She looked at it and recognised it immediately.
"This is Dad's" she said flicking through it.
"Sure is" Dean said "Question is why doesn't he have it?"
Kyra shrugged and the two of them went into the main street.
Dean went to a pay phone and called Sam.
"Fake 911 call, I'm pretty sure that's illegal" Dean said, Kyra laughed.
"Listen, I've got Dad's journal here"
"He never leaves that thing" Sam said.
"I know, and there's more. He left coordinates"
"Okay…"
"Sam!" Dean said suddenly and looked at the phone.
"What's up" Kyra asked.
"He hung up, something ain't right"
Constance appeared next to Sam in the Impala.
"Take me home" she said.
"You son of a bitch" Sam said.
"Take me home" Constance insisted she locked the car doors and drove the car with her ghostly powers.
She drove the car all the way to her house and then the engine cut out.
"I can never go home" she said suddenly she jumped on top of Sam intent on making him unfaithful to Jessica. He resisted her seductions and as Constance got more cross she started to hurt Sam by digging her nails into his chest. Sam screamed and Dean and Kyra appeared just in time. Dean shot Constance a few times and Sam sat up.
"It's not that you can't go home, you're too scared to go home" he said "So Constance I'm taking you home, right up to the door step" Sam said revving the Impala and driving straight into the house taking the spirit of Constance with him.
"Sam!" Dean and Kyra shouted together.
They ran in after the car and Dean pulled Sam out the wreckage.
"Where is she?" Kyra asked looking around the shabby old house.
She suddenly appeared and trapped the three with a desk pinning them again the side of the car. As she approached the three siblings they heard a trickling of water, they looked and saw water running down the stairs. At the top of the stairs a shadow of two kids stood together. Constance walked to the bottom of the stairs.
"Constance's kids didn't just die on their own, she found out that her husband was unfaithful to her and then in a fit of insanity she drowned her own kids" Sam said.
"We love you Mummy" the two kids said. They suddenly appeared right next to Constance and then grabbed a hold of her. She screamed and the three spirits melted into a puddle of water.
"So that's it?" Kyra asked as they pushed the desk away.
"I guess" Dean said looking closely at the Impala. "Dude if you so much as scratched the paint your dead"
Sam and Kyra smiled and helped Dean get the car out the house.
"Dad's not in Jericho anymore" Sam said after looking trough the journal.
"So where is he?" Kyra asked.
"Someplace called Black Water Ridge in Colorado" Sam said.
"Okay then Colorado here we come" Dean said.
"Whoa dude, I gotta get back to Stanford".
"Oh come on University?" Dean moaned.
"Yeah my interview is in ten hours and I gotta be there" Sam insisted.
"Okay, Kyra where you headed"
"I wanna get back to Adam, sorry" she said.
"Okay, kids I'll take you back" Dean sighed.
Sam's place was closer so they decided to drop him back first.
"Okay well, see ya sometime" Dean said.
"Yeah, well see ya"
They hugged and then Sam looked down at Kyra.
"Okay then little sis, catch ya soon" he said ruffling her hair.
"Yeah just give Adam or I a call, I'd like to see Jessica again"
"Why don't you pop in now?"
"I'd better get back to Adam"
"Okay then" he said hugging her.
Dean and Kyra got back into the Impala and watched Sam go.
"How far is it to yours again, I forget things like that" Dean said.
"Only ten minutes" Kyra said closing her eyes.
"How's about we keep contact" Dean said looking at Kyra.
He couldn't help but see how much she'd changed, her hair was darker and her face more mature.
"You sure look different" Dean said.
Kyra opened her eyes and looked at her eldest brother.
"So have you" she said leaning over and hugging him. "Can we go now" she said.
"You still wanna get away from me"
"How about we exchanged mobile numbers" Kyra said.
"Okay, I can settle for that" Dean said starting the car engine. Kyra looked up at Sam's flat for one last time and saw something strange. She jumped out the car and ran as fast as she could to the door.
"Kyra!" Dean called after her.
They both ran to Sam's flat door and the heat from inside was immense. They busted in and looked for Sam. Dean found him in the bedroom, when Kyra joined the too they were both looking up at the ceiling. Through the flames she could see Jessica's face, this was new to Kyra but Sam and Dean had seen it before. Between them Kyra and Dean managed to drag Sam outside where fire fighters were already on the scene, Sam refused oxygen from the paramedics and the siblings went to the Impala. Sam and Dean were quiet and Kyra spoke up.
"What's going on, I mean Jessica she was"
"Stuck to the ceiling" Sam said "Yeah I saw, it's happened again and too Jessica" Sam coughed.
"Again, what do you mean again?" Kyra asked totally confused.
"The same thing happened to our mother, a demon" Dean said.
"What the ceiling and the flames that was a demon?" Kyra asked.
"Yes" Dean paused
There was a silence, "Oh my god" Kyra gasped.
"What?" Dean asked.
"Adam, what if it gets Adam" she said taking of at a run down the road not waiting for the guys to get into the Impala. Besides Kyra knew short cuts that that car couldn't access. When she got the flat she looked up and saw there no flames but that didn't stop her heart beating a mile to the dozen. She ran up the stairs and fumbled with the lock, by that time she started to get frustrated and tears came down her eyes at her stupidity. Suddenly the door opened and Adam stood there half asleep.
"Kyra, what's going on?" he asked while rubbing his eyes. Kyra sobbed and jumped into his arms.
"Hey are you okay, what's happened?"
"Oh my god, I thought they got you" she cried into his gray shirt.
"Who" Adam asked confused.
"The demons" she cried
"Demons" Adam laughed and held Kyra at arms length.
"Kyra is everything alright…" Dean trailed of when he saw Adam in the door way.
"Yeah" she said wiping her nose and eyes on her sleeve.
"Dude, what's going on" Adam asked looking at Dean. Sam walked up behind him, still incredibly upset about Jessica.
"Can we come in?" Dean asked.
"Sure" Adam said stepping aside.
Adam gave Sam and Dean some of his clothes to change into as they decided to stay the night. Kyra got changed and when they were all sitting down in the living room she tucked herself right up next to Adam. He wrapped his arms around her and Dean proceeded to tell him about the hunting world. When he'd finished Adam took it surprisingly lightly, he got each of them a beer and then asked some questions.
"But clearly none of you are ever safe" Adam said.
"No" Dean said "But Kyra is well prepared" he looked up and Adam followed his eyes. The devil's trap on the ceiling looked haunting in the dim light.
"That's called a devil's trap, any demon that steps foot inside that can't do anything to hurt you" Dean said.
"So that's why you insisted on having that thing" Adam said looking down at Kyra but she was fast asleep with her head pressed into his side.
"Thank you guys" Adam said looking down at Kyra.
"For what?" asked Sam.
"For looking after her, if anything happened to her I don't know what I'd do"
"Yeah well, she's our sister" Dean said smiling.
"I'd better get her to bed; you two can do what ever you want. There's food and beer in the fridge and you can watch T.V if you want".
Dean rubbed his hands together.
"Thanks" he said. Adam shook both their hands before he picked Kyra up and carried her into the bedroom. She woke a little bit and looked deep into Adam's eyes.
"I love you so, so much" she said stroking his cheek.
"I love you so, so much too" Adam said back planting a delicate kiss on her lips.
"What are Sam and Dean doing?"
"They're raiding the fridge" Adam said.
She nodded and fell back asleep.
Kyra walked sleepily into the living room around ten in the morning followed shortly by Adam.
"Where are my brothers?" Kyra asked as she looked around the vacant room.
"Dunno, they were here last night" Adam said going into the kitchen. "Ky, they left a note" he called.
Kyra walked into the kitchen and took the small piece of paper from Adam's hand. She looked at the writing a recognised it as Sam's.
Kyra, Dean and I are going after the Demon and Dad.
Stay with Adam and keep him protected.
Love Sam and Dean.
"They're gone" Kyra whispered and pressed herself into Adam's side who kissed her head delicately.
