The Weapon Part Four - Angels and Demons

Note- This is the fourth part of the Weapon series and takes place during series 4 of Supernatural. Part 1 is called simply 'The Weapon' and takes place in series 1. For those who have not read that story or it's sequels, it is about Kaida, the adopted daughter of John Winchester who was brought into the family purely to protect Sam and Dean. This was because she has the ability to control temperatures and as such control fire and ice. However she soon finds that she cannot control the very fire that John fears, that of the yellow-eyed demon. We also discovered where her abilities came from and that at a very young age her mother was killed by her father who then tried to kill her. Now Dean is dead and Sam has run off. The story 'Devour' can also be seen as part of this series and takes place between Part 3 and this story. The song mentioned in this chapter is 'Gone Forever' by 'Three Days Grace' and is also mentioned in devour.

Chapter 1- Gone Forever.

Kaida sat at the table while Bobby fussed around with the stove. She hadn't wanted to come down for breakfast, but that morning he hadn't taken no for an answer. Maybe he just wanted some company for a change. Kaida didn't even know how long it had been, since the funeral, since Sam had left. And she didn't care, she couldn't. She was numb, numb to all of it, numb to everything now. However long it had been she had stayed here with Bobby, the two of them trying to keep each other alive, when they weren't sure they really wanted to survive.

Bobby put the two plates down on the table and sat across from the dragon come hunter. It was so hard to see her like this, so weak and broken, waisting away with no purpose, no drive, nothing but grief. She didn't even look at the plate in front of her, continuing instead to stare at nothing. She was so different from the girl he remembered. So different from the girl who used to spend hours just curled up on his sofa with a book, the girl who used to follow her brothers through the yard and use his junk piles for target practice. It was as if there was nothing left inside anymore, as if she was just a shell.

"You have to eat something Kaida"

Bobby said as he moved the food around on his plate with a fork, but he didn't put any of it in his mouth. He felt sick just thinking about eating, but he had to do something. He felt useless and looking after Kaida gave him something to do, something to concentrate on. They had both been wallowing in guilt and grief for too long now, and it was time they stopped.

"I'm not hungry"

She said. But she sounded detached, as if she wasn't even listening to herself. Stnding up again Bobby moved towards the radio on the counter. Breakfast obviously wasn't working so he tried something else.

"How about some music or something?"

He asked, turning it on before she could answer. Then he went back to pushing the food around his plate. He regretted the action almost instantly as the words of the song started to register in his mind.

"Don't know what's going on, don't know what went wrong. Feels like a hundred years, I still can't believe you're gone. So I'll stay up all night, with these bloodshot eyes. While these walls surround me with the story f our life."

As it turned out neither of hem were as dead inside as they had thought astears started to prick in both of their eyes.

"Ï feel so much better, now that you're gone forever. I tell myself that I don't miss you at all. I'm not lying, denying, that I feel so much better now. That you're gone forever."

Kaida closed her eyes tightly, trying to stop the tears from falling. She wanted to feel numb again, the way she had felt moments ago. Everything was so much easier when she felt numb.

"Fuck this!"

Bobby exclaimed, standing to retrieve the whisky bottle he had disgarded that morning when he had resolved to change, to get both himself and Kaida back on track.

"Now things are coming clear, And I don't need you here. And in this world around me, I'm glad you disappeared. So I'll stay out all night, get drunk and fuckin' fight. Until the morning comes I'll forget about our life."

Kaida looked up through her blurred vision and extended her hand towards the radio, but nothing happened. She hadn't been looking after herself and she was weak.

"Ï feel so much better, now that you're gone forever. I tell myself that I don't miss you at all. I'm not lying, denying, that I feel so much better now. That you're gone forever."

Putting everything she could into it, Kaida concentrated on the radio, which exploded with a small bang. Then, with a single glance towards Bobby, she picked up a fork and started to pick at the food in front of her. It wasn't much but it was a start. When she had eaten about half of the food on her plate she stood and removed the bottle from the man's fingers before disappearing back to her room.
