Within Temptation

-Chapter One: I Will Deliver-

Jane sighed, running a hand through her thick auburn curls before reloading her gun, pressing her back against the cold hard wall of the abandoned warehouse that was swarming with demons. She took deep breaths, remembering to load her water pistols with Holy water before wiping her big brown eyes that were stinging with sweat. She headed back through, sweating, dirty and tired after battling with the fuckers for so long. There were only two left, one female and one male.

She peered around the corner into the dim light of the warehouse, hearing a shuffling sound and pressing her back to the wall again. She became aware of someone standing behind her and she turned, spraying Holy water in the direction of the male demon who screamed, his hands running into his blonde locks as he fell to his knees. That attracted the attention of the female who made her entrance, Jane just turning on her with the Holy water too. She began exorcising them, black smoke shooting out of both bodies afterwards.

With a sigh of relief, Jane slumped against the wall, taking out her hip-flask of whiskey and drinking from it, jumping up as she heard a shuffling sound. She hoped and prayed that it wasn't more demons because she simply couldn't take anymore. She edged around towards the main door to the warehouse, hearing a deep voice sound through the darkness. The accent was English, she recognised, like Bella Talbot's (who she didn't want to remember) but with a hint of something else. She had to admit, it did sound kind of sexy.

"My, my, what do we have here?" She turned and saw a figure standing there, strong and brave, all in black with a smirk on his face.

Jane remained silent, the figure before her flashing his eyes black and back again.

"Had a bit of rough and tumble with a few demons there, Manson?" He asked, Jane swallowing thickly and finding herself barely able to move through her shock, "I think you've just exorcised eight of my siblings, or would I be wrong there?"

Jane began to back away, the demon appearing right before her and pressing her against the wall. Her heart leapt into her throat, thundering it's way sickeningly through her body as her legs quaked and her pulse shot up. She was truly scared of the being before her and she knew he could tell. He could practically taste the fear, she saw the hungered look in his eyes.

"Who are you?" She asked, the demon smiling in response.

"The name's Crowley." He said, "Nice to meet you, Jane."

"Wish I could say the same." Jane snapped, Crowley laughing a little in response.

"Feisty." He said, "Just how I like 'em."

Jane narrowed her eyes at the demon, Crowley stepping back slightly and watching her begin to walk away.

"You want the Devil dead." He said, Jane stopping in her tracks and turning to look at him, "Turns out we've got the same plan, darling."

"What?" Jane asked, "Why the hell would you want Lucifer dead? Isn't he...well...like your father or something?"

"Creator, Jane." Crowley corrected, "Creator. And let's just say that should Lucifer win this war, humanity will just be destroyed in an instant...and demons will too."

"But he created you..." Jane said, Crowley running a hand over his face.

"Bloody women." He huffed, "Have a damn answer for everything. Look, love, the Devil hates you lot...that goes with out saying, but us...well..."

He huffed out a bitter laugh and bit his lip, Jane taking in how damn handsome the fucking creature was.

"We're just slaves. 'Human shields' as it were." He said, air quoting as he did, "Lucifer uses us to get what he wants and kills us off one by one. He's an angel, remember? Albeit a fallen one, yet he still behaves like he's God's greatest creation."

"Why are you telling me all this?" Jane asked, the demon stepping closer to her.

"Because you can bring me Sam and Dean Winchester."

Jane's heart stopped beating for a moment and she stared at him, unable to speak as she went through every reason that Crowley could have for wanting Sam and Dean.

"Why do you need Sam and Dean Winchester?"

"Because, despite them being the biggest morons ever to grace the planet, I have an item for them which may help solve the problem and kill the Devil." Crowley answered, Jane moving closer to him.

"Why don't you just give this 'item' to me, and I'll take it to them?" Jane asked, the demon shaking his head.

"Sorry, love." He replied, "It's not going anywhere until I meet Sam and Dean face to face. But...I do have something that might be of use to you."

"What would that be?" Jane asked.

The demon pulled out a key from his coat pocket, Jane looking a little confused as she gazed at the shiny object.

"This is the key to my house." He said, "However, I'm not telling you were the house is, because you will find out for yourself in time. But if I give you this, then you must promise to bring Sam and Dean Winchester to me, so I can give them the item to kill Lucifer, and we can all get on with our happy little lives."

Jane looked at the demon for a moment, questioning whether or not to go along with this deal. She had to hand the brothers who she'd known from being just a young teenager over to a demon, who apparently had an item that could kill the Devil. It wasn't like they weren't trained to get out of a hostage situation involving demons. Sighing through her knowledge of the consequences of this, and also through her worry of the consequences, Jane nodded, going to take the key before he drew his hand away.

"Ah, ah, ah..." He said with a smirk, "Seal the deal first, darling."

With that, he pulled her into a kiss, one that was messy and dirty, but in Jane's mind, so fucking hot at the same time. Pulling away, the demon handed her the key and cupped her cheek with one hand, tapping the other cheek with his spare hand.

"Don't let me down." He said, "Or there'll be Hell to pay."

With that, Jane nodded, feeling sick for just making a deal with a demon, but also for kissing him. Even though, secretly, she thought it was one of the hottest things she'd ever experienced.

"That's my girl." He whispered, letting her go and watching her as she left, "Oh, Jane?"

Jane stopped and turned to look at him, the demon smirking and winking at her.

"I'll be in touch."

And with that, he was gone, leaving Jane all alone in an old, dim, dirty warehouse, the poor woman feeling instantly sick with herself for making that deal. She turned and ran out of the warehouse to the truck she'd hot-wired, starting it up and driving back to her dingy motel. She entered the room, checking every salt line, every door and every window before staggering into the shower tiredly.

Following her shower, she rolled into bed, curling up and snuggling into the mattress, placing that key safely on the silver chain that rested around her neck before fastening that back up and settling to sleep, while she still could.
