Chapter 1

Nikki's PoV

I wake up, confused. The cause of my confusion was nothing but an odd dream, but odd dreams are sometimes the cause of investigation and other things. I roll over onto my other side and check the time on my phone. 2:15 am it mocks. I have about three hours and forty-five minutes until I legitimately have to be up and functioning. I sigh and set down my phone, rolling back onto my other side. I close my eyes but sleep evades me. An irritated sigh leaves my lips and I accidentally wake up the sleeping form next to me.

"You okay?" my husband, Sam, whispers, still half-asleep.

"Yeah.. weird dream, that's all." I whisper back.

"Weird as in we need to hunt or weird as in odd?" he sounds a bit more awake now.

"Odd.."

He nods and kisses my forehead."Want to talk about it?"

I shake my head,"No.. I think it can wait until morning."

Sam chuckles,"I don't think so.. for it to wake you up, and you sleep through pretty much anything, it must've been pretty odd."

I sigh,"I had a dream that my mom married Crowley, that's all.."

Sam stays quiet for a few moments. I watch as all the pieces click into place in his mind. He makes a face and then starts laughing, quietly at first but it starts to get louder. "Your mom… married Crowley?" he manages to say in between fits of laughter.

I groan,"Yes.. and now you're mocking me."

Sam shakes his head and wipes his eyes."I'm not, I swear."

I hit his chest playfully and grab my pillow, starting to get out of bed,"That's it. I'm going to sleep on the couch." I sit up.

Sam frowns and pulls me back down into the bed,"Babe.." he whines slightly."I'm sorry.. it's just funny. The thought of Crowley marrying your mother.."

I groan,"It gets worse.. You were the best man."

Sam looks at me with wide eyes,"Really?"

"No, I just wanted you to stop laughing at me." I shrug and smile at Sam.

"You're terrible.." Sam kisses me.

I shrug,"I try."

He chuckles,"Get some sleep… okay? We've got a big hunt tomorrow."

I sigh,"Okay.. love you."

"Love you too."

After spending a few hours at the Bunker, eating breakfast and prepping for the hunt, Sam and I head out to my mom's house. We had all agreed to meet there as soon as we could in order to come up with a plan of attack for the vampire nest we were targeting. Sam and I could have easily taken care of it, but my mom and dad had insisted on letting them help us. At the same time, I understand where they were coming from. Dean, Sam's older brother, is MIA and my dad,Cas, is a bit short on his angelic power source: grace. I'm thinking this over on the drive over to my parent's house. I twist the wedding ring that graces my left ring finger and sigh.

A gentle kind of silence fills the car as Sam drives and I sit in the shotgun seat.

"Anything on Dean?" I ask, quietly.

Sam shakes his head but doesn't say anything. He parks the car in my parent's driveway and cuts the engine.

I'm barely out of the car before I'm tackled by my mother's embrace. I fall back onto the door of the car as I hug her back,"Mom.. you act like I've been gone for ten years or something."

My mom, Ellie, chuckles a bit."It feels like it."

"I just saw you, what? A week ago?"

She sighs and lets me go,"You're my only daughter, what do you expect?"

I shrug at her and she turns her attention to Sam.

Ellie shakes her head,"What are we going to do with her, Sam?" she gives him a half-hug.

He smiles at her and returns the embrace. "I don't know.."

I roll my eyes at him playfully,"How's Dad holding up?"

Ellie purses her lips,"Fine." her tone implies the opposite fact, however.

I nod slightly as she lets go of Sam and leads us up to the house. It's a small two-story house, the kind that a normal family would live in. That's one thing I love about my parents: they tried their best to make me feel normal. Sam grabs the door gently and holds it open for me and my mom to enter to house. I walk in and find my dad on the couch in the living room.

"Hey, Dad." I smile a bit at him.

Cas gives me a tired smile and wave,"Hello, Nikki.. Sam." he nods a bit.

Sam nods back,"Hey, Cas."

Cas starts to stand up. He looks like hell, something that I usually don't say, but he looks that bad. "Nicole, I'm fine." he says.

I look down, I guess the concern was written on my face."Sorry.."

Ellie smiles sadly at me, understanding my thought process exactly. "You ready to head out?" She looks exhausted, like she hasn't slept in easily two days.

I nod,"If you guys are."

Sam takes my hand in his."Yep."

Ellie nods and Cas wraps an arm around her waist, coughing ever so slightly. It sounds painful and I cringe.

Ellie sighs as she watches my face."Let's go then. The quicker we can get this over with, the quicker we can get someone home." she glances at her husband.

Sam takes in a sharp, pained breath. I look at him and he waves me off. He doesn't have to say anything but I know exactly what he's thinking about. Dean.. and getting him back home. I squeeze his hand gently.

Cas rolls his eyes slightly. "I'm fine, I promise, Ellie."

Ellie nods,"I'm sure you are." she grabs two machetes. "You two bring your own?"

I nod once,"In the car, like always."

"Alright.. then let's head out."
