Prologue

Two months had passed since Aurora had found out she had two half-brothers, Sam and Dean Winchester. Nearly nineteen years ago, their father, John Winchester, had showed up on her mother's doorstep, hurt and bleeding. She patched him up and John had spent time with her mother, Selene, and the product of that union was Aurora.

She had spent the first ten years of her life with her mother and learned from her the skills and knowledge of a white witch. Her mother passed her knowledge to her daughter, like her mother before her and her mother's mother before that, going back generations. Aurora came from a long line of white witches who kept a low profile and helped those they could.

When Aurora was ten, her mother died and her aunt, Asteria, took over her care and training. She knew she was different, but just didn't know how much. Aurora found her mother's private journal and learned who her father was and about her brothers.

She contacted a mutual friend of her mother's, Bobby Singer, trying to get in touch with the Winchester brothers. Aurora had had these dreams, visions, whatever you wanted to label them, about Sam, the youngest brother. Aurora knew she could help him. But the biggest thing, she wanted to meet her half-brothers and hopefully get to know them. Family meant everything to her; she didn't want to waste anymore time, she wanted to meet them.

Their first meeting went as well as could be expected. There were doubts and distrust at first, but that changed quickly. Asteria confirmed what her mother's journal and the pictures showed. They were family and family came first.

Things really got complicated when Aurora was kidnapped by a demon and the brothers went to her rescue. She found out so much more about herself that day, she was part demon and had been given grace from an angel, not just any angel but a supreme, 7th Dimension angel, a seraphim. He was very powerful and didn't take kindly to anyone who harmed those under his protection. He came to her that day, saved her and placed his mark on her, showing all he was her guardian.

Knowing that she couldn't keep the knowledge from Aurora any longer, Asteria, told her about her mother, the demons and what they did to protect and save her. Now, Aurora knew the truth about herself and that she had special abilities that would get stronger as she got older. Aurora was wise beyond her years and took all this new knowledge calmly and in stride.

The brothers kept in touch with her and would visit for a few days, if they were in the area. She talked to Sam two or three times a week and with Dean at least once a week. She thought they kind of liked having a little sister added to their family. She knew if she ever needed them, they would not hesitate to be there for her.

Chapter 1

Electra bounced around at the back door, waiting for Aurora to open it.

"I'm coming, don't be so impatient." she laughed at the hybrid wolf. "Don't you go getting all muddy either, I just cleaned the floors."

Electra growled deep in her chest and licked Aurora's hand before running off toward the woods. She could hear the distant howl and smiled to herself. She was pretty sure Ellie had her a fellow out there.

Her cell began to ring The Eagles, Witchie Woman from the living room. Aurora hurried to her desk and pressed answered.

"Hey Sis." Sam said.

"Sammy! So where are you? How long before you get here? Hope you're hungry, I've been cooking for two days." Aurora rambled on so excited they were coming to visit.

"Whoa, slow down." he laughed. "We should be there in probably three hours or so, depends on Dean's driving. You didn't go to too much trouble did you?"

"Hey, I can spoil my big brothers with home cooking if I want. You know I love to cook and tell Dean I made his favorite pies."

"Did you say pies?"

"Yes."

"Dean says we'll be there in two hours, don't worry I'll keep him under control." Sam laughs as Dean could be heard in the background asking about the pies.

"Just be careful, ok. I want you here in one piece. Love you guys."

"We will and we love you too Little Sis." he said softly.

Aurora sighed as she hung up. Sam was hiding something, but she couldn't tell what. He was shielding himself from her and that only meant memories must be bleeding thru again. She went to check their rooms one last time to be sure everything was ready. She opened the windows to let in fresh air.

Mouth watering aromas wafted from the kitchen as Aurora checked the roast she had cooking in the oven. Looking at the clock one more time, she washed her hands and went to stand on the front porch to listen for the familiar rumble of the Impala's engine, letting her know her brothers were coming.

She was sipping a glass of fresh lemon aide, when that unmistakable roar could be heard echoing down her drive. Aurora jumped to her feet and went to stand at the top of the steps. The sun's rays bounced off the shiny, black Impala as Dean turned the last curve and headed up the driveway to stop in front of her house.

Dean cut the engine and was climbing out of the car when she tackled him. He stumbled back trying to gain his balance and not drop his baby sister.

"Oree, man, let me get out of the car." he teased holding them up as she squeezed him tightly.

"Dee! You're here!" she cried happily. She gave him one more quickly squeeze and released him when Sam came around the car into view.

"Sammy!" she exclaimed jumping up to reach his neck to hug him.

"Oree, it's good to see you too." he grunted catching her and stumbling slightly. She pulled back and looked him steadily in the eyes. She frowned at him, but didn't say anything.

"Come on, I've got fresh lemon aide waiting." she said sliding down Sam's body.

Ellie came bounding out of the woods and attacked Sam, pushing him to the ground to lick him and love him.

Aurora punched Dean in the arm and hissed. "Why didn't you call me?"

"Ow-w, what do ya mean?" Dean complained rubbing his arm. She could pack a punch for a little thing.

"About Sam, he's worse." she said quietly to him. "Ellie, let Sam up, he's glad to see you too."

"He wouldn't let me." he whispered back. "No Ellie, I don't want kisses." Dean stressed as he backed up holding up his hands. Ellie advanced toward him and finally relented to letting him just scratch her ears.

"Come on big brother, let's go sit on the porch." she giggled at Sam helping him off the ground.

"Just 'cause she slept with me that one time, does she think I'm her pup or something?" Sam mused brushing off his jeans and wiping the wolf slobber off his face.

"She likes you, you're the only one she does that with."

"Lucky me." he complained rolling his eyes.

"Aw, you know you like it." she teased him pouring the lemon aide and handing out the glasses.

Sam muttered under his breath about an overgrown lap dog as he sat down and accepted the glass. Dean threw himself into another chair and just relaxed sipping the cold, sour/sweet drink. He enjoy their time with Aurora and it felt good to be able to just let go of everything for a while. She seemed to bring out the best in both of the brothers when they were around her.

"So the big day's tomorrow?" Dean asked arching one eye brow.

"Yes, Auntie's planned a small thing at her house, of course you both were invited. And you can't weasel out of it either. You're driving." she said firmly.

"Yes ma'am." Dean smirked. He loved it when she thought she was in control, and really wasn't. She could be bossy when she wanted to be, but Dean took it all in stride. She was his baby sister after all.

The three Winchesters lounged on the porch finishing their lemon aide as the sun sunk lower in the sky. Aurora went inside to check dinner leaving the brothers on the porch.

"Sammy, how ya feelin'?" Dean asked him eyeing him waiting for his response.

"I'm fine." Sam grunted irritably not looking directly at Dean. Dean knew the Winchester meaning of

I'm fine, and didn't let him get away with it.

"Yeah and I'm Miss America, wantta try that again?" Dean huffed giving his best big brother stare.

"I'm dealing with it, ok." Sam miffed moving to stand at the end of the porch and gaze out into the woods. Ellie moved to stand by him and scan the woods too, looking for any danger. "It's ok." he said more to himself than the wolf and patted her head.

Dean frowned as he watched his baby brother shut him out again. He wanted to help, but it seemed Sam was determined to keep him at bay. This frustrated him to no end, he was the big brother, he was supposed to protect Sammy.

It didn't get by Aurora the tension between the brothers as she slipped back outside. She looked from one to the other before speaking.

"Go wash up, dinner will be ready in ten minutes."

"Great, I'm starved." Dean said rubbing his hands together. He looked over at his brother who hadn't moved from his stance at the end of the porch. He started to say something, but Aurora hushed him and pushed him toward the door.

She walked over to Sam and stood beside him before speaking, "Sammy, you don't have to pretend with me. It's getting worse again isn't it?" she said softly.

Sam seemed to shrink in on himself as his body seemed to deflate. He didn't say anything as she laid a warm hand on his cool one. Just her touch seemed to break the barrier between them. He knew he couldn't hide it from her. She had that effect on him, the bond they had, it seemed to grow stronger the more they were together.

"You should have called me and quit trying to shield me from knowing. I would have been there as soon as I could." Ellie wolfed motherly and pushed at Sam's other hand, being rewarded with a scratch behind the ears.

"I-I thought I could handle it." he barely whispered as his body trembled slightly.

"How did you keep it from our nosey brother this long?"

"You know, I got good at pretending, I'd put on my I'm fine face. I think he might have suspected, but I've gotten pretty good at keeping it pushed back when I'm around him."

"Come on, you need to try to eat something and then you're going to let me help you." she said firmly. "Now go wash up." She pushed him toward the door and he reluctantly allowed her to boss him like a child. He couldn't get anything by her, she could read him, even better than Dean, at times.

Even though the brothers had only known their baby sister only a few months, she was an important part of their lives now. She was as much a Winchester as they were, she was John Winchester's legacy, just as they were.
