I don't own supernatural just my oc (Raven)!

Chapter 1

"Alright, boys. So what's it going to be today?"

I ask Sam and Dean Winchester. I've been hunting with the boys for a few years now and they treat me like a little sister. Granted, I looked nothing like them. To start with, I'm only 5'4, pale white skin,dyed crimson red hair, and most of my wardrobe was the color black with some leather thrown in the mix. I guess it was safe to say that I didn't mind being an outcast. Ever since I met the boys my life has changed, but I still question if it was for the better.

"No new cases for once. I say we head home, grab a beer, and get drunk until we black out," was Dean's reply as we drove in the Impala.

"Oh, so every night then," I sarcastically reply and Dean smirks at me in the rearview mirror which I respond by sticking out my tongue. Sam just gives a light laugh and shakes his head at both of us.

"It seems weird to have a break. It makes my powers itch to do something," I say and rub my hands. And that's another thing about me. I wield the power of fire, not just any fire; hell fire. One of the most deadliest weapons to exists and it ran through my veins. I was born with this power but it didn't develop until I was a teenager. I ran away from home because I didn't want to hurt my family and along the way I got into hunting and that's how I met Sam and Dean. They tried to kill me at first but that's a story for another time.

"I don't need you setting off fire balls in the kitchen again," Dean said as he kept his eyes on the road.

"I said I would pay for the damages," I look over to Sam. " What's up with you? You seem very quiet today." I ask Sam as he turns around in his seat to look at me.

He paused for a moment, "I'm fine, Raven." Giving a smile that wasn't at all convincing. I smile back to reassure him that I wouldn't press on. And with that, the car ride home was silent.

We didn't get home until three in the morning. The boys were used to staying up late, but no matter how many times I've done it I still feel shitty. I threw myself down on the couch as Sam sat at the table and Dean grabbed a beer for him and Sam. I never drank unless it was a special occasion. Shocker, right? I live with the Winchester's and I'm not destroying my liver.

I faded out their talking after a while because I started to feel...off. That was the best to describe it at this point. My mind was racing with randoms thoughts which never happened after my powers were discovered, and I felt like something bad was coming and I didn't know how to feel about that. I rarely tell the boys about my feelings. One, I drag my stories on forever and end up missing the point of the whole story. And two, sometimes it's just my nerves acting up. After the whole Lucifer thing, Sam getting back, him seeing Lucifer, the darkness, and basically everything after that. It's been hard to figure out my emotions. And my powers are no exception.

I started to close my eyes and saw flashbacks of my memories. This rarely happened to me, usually I would get memories of my childhood when my powers first came and after a while they seemed to disappear. But this one was different than the other times I had them.

I was in a big yard with a swing set, one of my favorite playground equipment. The house was an average size nothing fancy and not too small. No one was there, it was just me. I looked up to the clear blue sky and closed my eyes as I thrilled myself in the afternoon light. I started to run in my bare feet to the swing. The cool grass tickled my feet as I ran and the breeze blew my hair passed my shoulders. My white sundress beamed in the light. But as I got closer to the swing, the environment began to change around me. The temperature dropped to where I could see my breath, my skin covered in goosebumps, the ground below my feet turned to gravel and mud, and my swing was gone. I started to panic, the feeling in my stomach grew more and more. I tried to run but my feet wouldn't allow me to so I stood my ground as the events around me unfolded. Soon, a bright light rammed itself out of the ground. I couldn't look away as my mind scream at me to run! But, then the light faded and in its place was Lucifer. My breath ran cold and multiple shivers ran throughout my body.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't the little fire starter. Miss me, red?'' Lucifer smirked and began to laugh. " Oh, I'm sorry. Am I invading your little, sweet memory? Get used to it, Sweetheart. You're going to be seeing me a lot more…"

Then, the world around me began to shake. My vision was fading but I needed more answers. "Why are you here, Lucifer?!" He just continued laughing and I faded out of the memory turned nightmare.

"Raven, wake up. You were having a nightmare," Sam said to me as he shook me awake. I shot up from the couch and I was breathing heavily. "Are you okay?'' He said as he rubs my back.

"Um, yeah I'm fine. Just had a bad dream is all," I said but before I could continue my personal phone rang. That never happened, usually people would call me on my work phone like the boys but the only other people that had this number was my family.

I grabbed the phone. "Hello?"

"Raven, it's your mother. Your grandfather passed away last night," my mother said.

I went numb. This wasn't possible! I wasn't gone from my family that long! And I didn't even get to say goodbye!

"I'll be there as soon as possible," I hung up the phone and stared at the ground. Dean walked over and sat next to me on the couch while Sam sat on the other side.

"What's wrong, Flames?" Dean asked using my nickname.

"My grandpa died. And I wasn't even there to say 'goodbye'." I felt my heart swell and tears forming in my eyes.

"I thought you said your family never spoke to you after they found out about your powers?" Sam questions me.

"They did. But, my grandparents didn't. They were the only ones to support me and now one of them is gone." I began to cry, which I hated. It made me feel weak. "I have to go, I have to go!" I frantically said and got up from the couch and made my way to the basement. They brothers followed in pursuit behind me calling my name to calm me down.

"Raven, calm down!" Dean said and gently grabs me by the arm. "You need to calm down if you're going through the fires, you know this." Dean did something that took me by surprise. He pulled me into a hug and calms me down.

I sniffle and hug him back. It was rare to experience this type of closeness with the brothers. I let go and my crying slowed down.

"I'm okay to travel. I don't know when I'll be back. I'll see-"

Sam cut me off while giving his famous puppy dog eyes, "stay there as long as you need. You know how to get to us."

"But what about the Darkness?"

"Don't worry. It'll still be a mess when you get back. That son-of-a-bitch isn't leaving anytime soon," Dean told me and pats my back.

"Okay. but if anything,and I mean ANYTHING happens, you call me right away." I sternly told the boys but smile while doing so. We all chuckled and I smile turning my back towards them as I raise my hand and fire comes out and catches onto the wall. One of the benefits about fire what that I could travel through it, going anywhere I desired. I give them one last smile of a 'goodbye' and walk into the fire.
