Summary: Leigh Wendell arrives the week before the Winchester and Co. take on Lucifer. She brings a message: Jo dies. She's here to stop that from happening. But just who is this mystery girl and why does she look so familiar?
Hey guys! I know it's been a while since I've posted anything... But, this idea popped into my head and wouldn't get out until I wrote it. So, yeah. For those of you following Aftermath, the next chap is going up right after this!
****DISCLAIMER**** I don't own Supernatural. That belongs to Kripke. Nor do I own the Doctor Who quote that is placed within this chapter. Thatbelongs to Davies/Moffatt/anyone else who owns it that isn't me.
The girl appeared suddenly, startling the group of hunters. She stood there for a moment, swaying.
"Help me." she groaned before collapsing to the ground. Dean rushed forward, Sam right behind him. Together they lifted her into the backseat of the Impala. As they did, a white piece of paper fluttered to the ground. Jo picked it up.
"What's that?" Dean asked. Jo shrugged.
"It fell out of her pocket. It looks like a journal entry."
"Well, open it up!" the eldest Winchester exclaimed.
"Dean, that's an invasion of privacy. I say we wait until she wakes up." Sam argued.
"Wait. Guys, there's something on the back. It's addressed to us." Jo said.
"That settles it, Sammy. We're opening it." Dean said. Jo nodded and opened up the folded piece of paper.
"First things first. If you found me, call this number: 1-866-907-3235. Tell Dean where I am and then you run away and never look back. Ever. I mean it. But, if you're a Winchester, a Harvelle, a Singer, or a damn angel, read carefully. I'm from the future. Dean Winchester do not roll your eyes. My name is Leigh Wendell. I mean not really, but that's what I'm calling myself. If the spell worked correctly, I've arrived a week before you take on Lucifer. If not, I'm going to kill Balthazar. Traveling back takes a lot out of me. That's why I collapsed. I have a lot to say. If you want answers, you're going to have to wait until I wake up." Jo read, looking up at the two Winchesters in front of her and her mother by the car.
"What the hell is going on?" Dean asked. The sound of fluttering wings had them all turning towards the angel on their side.
"Cas. There is some weird stuff going on here." Dean said, stopping as he took in Cas. The angel was facing the Impala, a confused look on his face. Dean caught some of the words he was muttering to himself.
"How? She's- She can't be. Impossible!"
"Cas? Care to share with the rest of the class?" Dean asked. As if brought back to reality, Cas turned towards him.
"It's nothing, Dean." the angel said. Dean rolled his eyes.
"Sure, Cas. You staring at the girl from the future and muttering nonsense is nothing." Dean quipped.
"I didn't realize you were always this sarcastic." came a voice from behind Cas. Everyone turned to look at the occupant of the classic car.
"How long was I out?" she asked. Sam checked his watch.
"Close to 15." he replied.
"Oh. Really? Normally I'm out for like 3 hours. Scared the hell outta my parents the first time." she said, a funny look crossing her face.
"You said you had a lot to say. So, start talking" the eldest Winchester ordered. The girl looked at him and nodded.
"OK. My name's Leigh Wendell. I'm 24 years old. I still live with my parents, along with my grandmother, two uncles and a friend. I have not one, but three angels wrapped around my pinkie. I go back in time to protect the future, my future. I've been training since I was 15.I go back to stop things from happening. Things that threaten to tear my future apart. You want to know why I'm here? Jo dies in a week. You'll all go to fight Lucifer. Meg will be there with her lovely pet hellhounds. Dean will get attacked. Jo saves him and in turn gets mauled. She dies in the arms of her mother as a building explodes around them. I'm here to prevent that from happening. At any cost. Any questions?" she said. Dean stared at her in shock.
"I have a question." Cas said, breaking the silence.
"Yes?"
"The child you carry is-"
"I'm not telling you, Castiel. I'm not telling anyone." she interrupted before he could finish his question.
"Wait...they let you travel back carrying a child?" Sam asked. Leigh shook her head.
"No. They don't know. They can't know. No one except myself knows"
"Who's the father?" Dean asked. Leigh smiled softly and shook her head.
"I can't tell you that, Dean. But, I can assure you it's not you or Sam."
"You didn't say it wasn't Cas."
"Castiel is an angel. They are biologically non-compatible with humans. Even if he tried, it would be impossible."
"How exactly do you travel back?" Ellen asked.
"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-whimey stuf."
"Um, English, please." Dean said.
"Basically, there are holes in time I can jump through. With the help of Balthazar's spell. He's never guided me wrong yet."
"Balthazar? You're working with Balthazar?" Cas asked. Leigh nodded.
"Sometimes he or Gabriel travel back with me on the more dangerous missions. They're very protective of me. But, right now, we need to talk about the plan for taking on Lucifer." she said.
"You all know that Jo dies trying to save Dean. She won't. Not this time. When Dean gets attacked, keep running. DO NOT STOP. I'll protect him. It's my job."
Everyone nodded and she turned to the angel beside her.
"Castiel, when you go to find Lucifer, stay out of the middle of the room. Lucifer will have set a trap of holy oil for you. You'll be needed, so don't get trapped."
"Why would Cas be needed?" Sam asked.
"I told you I'd do anything to keep Dean and Jo safe. If anything happens to me, I'd like to have an angel on hand to heal me."
"So you're purposely trying to get yourself killed?" Dean asked. She turned her gaze toward the eldest Winchester and raised an eyebrow.
"I'm 3 weeks pregnant, Dean Winchester. Do you really think I'm trying to purposely kill myself? I've got a family to go back to!"
"Ok, just a question. Well, since we now have a nice little plan, all tied up with a bow, how about we find a motel and grab some food. And sleep."
Well, that's the end of Chapter 1. Tell me what you think! I also want to hear who you think Leigh really is... Til next time dear friends!
