Chapter One
Hi my name is Samantha Winchester; I am 40 years old and an FBI agent based in Washington DC. I recently lost my father, my last parent so have been using my connections to try and find the rest of my family, my brother, John and my nephews, Dean and Sam. I need to find my family for two reasons. I want him to be godfather to my twins (due in August) and to pass on an inheritance to my nephews. Yes, we are those Winchesters; my father cut John off when he married a young woman named Mary Murphy in 1974, but he did leave an inheritance to all his grandchildren.
Although, my father disinherited my brother, we kept in touch and I was at the birth of both my nephews, Dean in 1979 and Sam in 1983. In November 1983, the family was attacked by a Demon. Yes, I know about Demons, and the other things that go bump in the night. I tried to warn John that something was coming but he didn't believe that I could see what was coming. Since an early age, I have had visions of things that were going to happen. Shortly after the attack, John took the boys and disappeared and I have not heard from him or them since.
The FBI is reporting that my brother died nearly two years ago, and that my nephews died in a major explosion two months ago. My other contacts are reporting that although John is dead, the boys are very much alive. I have therefore taken time off from work before my maternity leave starts to track down John, Dean and Sam. I won't be doing this alone however; my husband, William Talbot a hunter is coming with me. We decided to head west and will start with the best hunter that Bill knows, Bobby Singer. Bill has known Bobby for a while, but the hunting world is so secretive that William hasn't asked him about the Winchesters yet. I am taking along my proof of identity and my documentary evidence on my links to John, Dean and Sam just in case.
Whilst trying to track down John and the boys, I have been researching both sides of the family and found out something interesting. Running down the Winchester side of the family, in every generation there is a Sam, I think that this is more than a generational thing of passing on the name. I also discovered that the youngest child in our family inherits a gift, I don't know if this has passed to John's Sam. I do know that I received a gift as did my Uncle Sam, my grandfather Sam and going on back through the family. The gift in my case as I have stated before is visions, my uncle was telekinetic (could move things with his mind), and my grandfather was both. My gut feeling is that Sam has inherited his great grandfather's gifts; he may not know how to use them as wasn't around the family to learn how.
On Mary's side of the family, all of her relations died within three years of her death it was as if someone was trying to hide or cover something up. On further investigation, I discovered that my Sister-in-Law was related to a long line of hunters. I don't know if Mary was aware of this, and that this is the reason for the attack on her life and the lives of all her relations and close friends. The first in the line of hunters was given a revolver by Samuel Colt. The revolver was built to kill anything Supernatural, and was intended to be passed down the family line to the oldest child who was to become a hunter.
Two years after the revolver was given to Dominic Murphy, he went into hiding and the current whereabouts are a mystery. Hunter history shows that Dominic Murphy was one of the greats, and the reason for his disappearance is not clear. There has been speculation as to what happened to Dominic when he disappeared but what is most likely is that as he started a family he felt that he should settle down, do the occasional hunt and raise his family and pass the mantle onto the next generation. One of the theories is that Dominic met and fell in love with his guardian angel, and that this has been passed on down the line of the Murphy's.
Dominic had a son, and two daughters, his son become a hunter (Frank Murphy), Frank had a son (Glenn) and a daughter and the son became a hunter. In each generation, to keep them safe the daughters knew nothing about what their brothers where doing just that they left home at the age of eighteen and they saw them again at family gatherings (sometimes a little worse for wear) but very rarely apart from that. Glenn married and had a son (James) and a daughter (Mary). James went on to become a hunter and a pastor.
As far as I can tell, John never knew that his Pastor Jim was Mary's brother James. John and Mary had a very small wedding and family was not invited (I didn't speak to him for a six months for that.) We did however talk again, he was angry that Dad had cut him off and thought that I was siding with Dad, he didn't ask me just assumed, by brother can be incredibly stubborn. We got past that and had a really great relationship and I adored Mary and loved my nephews.
Bringing together the Winchester / Murphy family bloodlines, the hunters in the family, the angelic bloodline and the special gifts has lead to the attacks on the family. I am convinced more now than ever that these will continue until we can find the Colt and bring down the Lucifer's agent on Earth. At this point, William tells me that Lilith has risen again and if she has we are in real trouble as not only will she go after John, Sam and Dean but she will come after me, Will and my twins.
