Prologue
Disclaimer: I unfortunately do not own Supernatural or any of its characters but I do own Mackenzie!
It was late September 1997 when John Winchester was on a hunt to clean out quickly vampire nest in Arlington, Oregon. John had left 19 year old Dean and 15 year old Sam to do their own hunt, taking care of a vengeful spirit, a simple salt and burn. John rescued a woman by the name of Sarah Young from the vampire nest. Sarah was a 27 years old divorcee and had no living family, making her the perfect target for the vampires to use as a blood slave. John thought she was pretty from the first moment he laid eyes on her. She was a petite blonde with bright blue eyes and a pretty face. Once all the vampires were dead, John took her home and things escalated. John left before she even woke up the next morning and she never heard from him again, leaving it at a one night stand. This had hurt Sarah because she had instantly taken a liking to John. John went back to his boys , not thinking twice about Sarah again.
Until about two years later. John Winchester was driving down an interstate in Washington state in early August when his phone rings. "Hello?" He answers. Dean was looking at the passing landscape while Sam slept in the backseat. "What are you talking about? No. I don't." John said to whoever was on the other end of the line. This sparks Dean's interest as he turns to look at his father, trying to figure out what he could be talking about. John utters a few more things to the other unknown person. "Okay I'll be there in a few hours" John said as he hung up and sighed. "Who was that dad?" Dean asks. "That was the CPS in Oregon. We have to go" John replies "Why? What's wrong?" Dean asks his father. "You and Sammy have a sister. I have a daughter" he says, still slightly shocked. Dean looks at John just as shocked "What?" Dean asks "Is this some kind of joke Dad?" He adds. "I wish it was son. But we have to go at least check it out. We can explain to your brother when he wakes up" John tells his eldest son. The rest of the ride was silent as both John and Dean thought about what they were just told. John had a daughter. They hadn't said why she was in Child Protective Services custody but they did say that John was the only family she had left so he went. He couldn't leave his daughter to get lost in the system. 'I have a daughter.' John thinks to himself. How was he going to raise a daughter? He had only raised boys.
About 8 and a half hours later, John and the boys had arrived at their destination. Sam had woken up a few hours ago and John explained that he was no longer the youngest. He had a baby sister. Sam, like Dean, still didn't really know how to feel about their new found sister. John sighed deeply as he parked the Impala outside of the orphanage where his daughter was being kept. He finally got out "You boys can come or stay in here" he said as he shut the door and walked to the front door. He sighed again before he opened the door, knowing that his life would change forever once he walked in that door. He thought about just walking away and letting her have a normal life like his sons never had but he also knew that she was a walking target because her last name was Winchester. As soon as all the bad guys found out John had a daughter, and they would, then they would come after her and he would have no way of protecting her. 'She's just a kid. She doesn't deserve that' he thought as he opened the door and walked to the front desk.
Sam and Dean stayed in the Impala while their father went to pick up their new baby sister. "You're being quiet Dean. What are you thinking?" Sam asks his big brother. Dean sighs "If this is what Dad wants then I'll help him" he replied. Sam rolled his eyes 'Of course he would' Sam thought. Sam knew that his brother had an undying loyalty to their father and would do anything John asked him to do. Sammy on the other hand, at the age of 16 was starting to question everything his father said and did. He was getting tired of the hunting life, tired of always being the new kid, tired of being a freak. He wanted a normal, apple pie life as Dean called it. He hadn't told his father or Dean that he was starting to look at colleges. He wanted to be lawyer. Sam and Dean were silent as they waited for their father to return, both of the boys deep in thought.
John walked out to the Impala about 20 minutes later. He came to Dean's window "Hey boys. I need you guys to come in. You can meet your sister and I need help carrying her stuff to the car" he says. Dean hops out of the Impala without hesitation and follows John into the orphanage. Sam sighs and gets out, following his father and brother. Sam walks in the stand beside Sam and Dean, standing in a small lobby with a few toys for children. In the back corner was a woman with a little girl, John's little girl. He had met her and he was already so in love with her. "Over here boys" he says as he leads Sam and Dean over to the woman and child. John picked up his daughter in his arms and smiled "Boys, this is your baby sister, Mackenzie Grace Winchester" he says then kisses the little girl's cheek. "She just turned one on June 14th." He adds. Sam and Dean stared at the little girl, taking in all her features. She had their dad's brown hair and she had these big, bright, sky blue eyes. 'Must be her mother's eyes' Dean thought. "Hi Mackenzie" Dean said with a smile to the tiny girl. The toddler looked at him for a moment before smiling back, showing the 4 teeth that she had.
John walked out of the orphanage to take his daughter's car seat and her small bag of belongings to the Impala, leaving the boys to bond with her. John smiled to himself as he buckled the car seat in the backseat where his daughter would ride as she joined the family on the road. 'Wait, what am I thinking? I can't take a baby on the road to hunt' he thought to himself. John stood there for a few minutes, rethinking his decision about keeping her. He could do that, the boys were bonding with her and he already loved her to death. John sighed then took his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number he thought he would never dial again. It rang three times and there was an old gruffy voice on the other end of the line "John?" It said "Hey Bobby. Yea it's me. I kinda have a situation. Can I maybe stay with you for awhile?" He asked.
And this is where the story of Mackenzie Winchester begins.
