-Chapter 1: Why won't you look at me?-
After closing the gates of Hell and finally killing the Yellow-Eyed Demon, Sam Winchester sat in the front seat of the Impala going over some research to save his brother Dean from going to Hell. Alex Singer was laying down in the back seat trying not to pay attention to the eldest Winchester while he was in the motel room the Impala was parked in front of, who was fraternizing with an anonymous woman.
"Is he being serious right now?" Alex asked Sam, her face towards the back of the of the seat. Bobby Singer's daughter was only a year younger than Sam with light brown hair and stunning green eyes.
"Uh, yeah, seems like it," Sam said as the brothers gave each other a thumbs up before Dean closed the curtains. "Not the adventure you were looking for, huh?"
Alex laughed rolling onto her back to stare at the ceiling, "Definitely not."
Sam's phone went off and noticed it was Bobby. "It's your dad," he said to Alex. He answered it, "Hello?
"Hey, Sam," Bobby said. "What you up to? Keeping your hands off my daughter, right?"
"That's Dean, Bobby," Sam laughed. "Just same old, same old."
"You got your nose in that damn book again, don't you?" Bobby asked shaking his head. "If you want to save your brother, you're not going to find the answer in no damn book."
"Then where would I find the answer, Bobby?" Sam sighed.
"He's yelling at you for rereading that book, isn't?" Alex said from the back seat. Sam ignored her.
"Kid, I wish I knew. So, where's your brother?" Bobby said.
"Polling the electorate."
"What?" Bobby asked confused.
"Nothing. Nevermind," Sam said.
"Zip it up. I think I finally found something." And they hung up.
"What's going on?" Alex said sitting up and staring at Sam's dark brown hair.
"Bobby's found something." Sam sighed, "I'm going to have to go in there and get him."
"Good luck with that," Alex laughed and sat back as Sam got out of the car to get his brother. Alexandra Singer wanted desperately to get out of her small town of Sioux Falls and the Winchesters were the perfect opportunity. After arguing with her father for hours, Bobby couldn't say no to his little girl. He knew deep down she could handle herself since he taught her everything she knew. But since Dean revealed that he made a deal for Sam and he will eventually be going to Hell, he started down a path of doing whatever the hell he wanted which included drinking too much, having random sex, and so much more disturbing things. But at least she wasn't stuck in the Salvage yard with her grumpy father. She also had the biggest crush of the brothers.
"Let me see your knife, Alex," Sam said as Dean drove like mad down the street.
"What do you need her knife for," Dean said as Alex pulled her knife out of her pocket.
"So I can gauge my eyes out," Sam replied and Alex started laughing hysterically. "It's not funny, Singer!"
"It was a beautiful, natural act, Sammy," Dean smiled.
"Dude, it was a side of you I never wanted to see," Sam said, disgusted.
Alex was still laughing hysterically in the back seat, "I am so sorry, Sam. But thank God it was you that went in there." She shuffled around, "I think I have a plastic bag you can puke in."
Sam turned to face her and contemplated taking her up on the offer. What he saw in that motel room will probably haunt him for years and he had to bunk with the guy. Dean just shook his head and continued to drive wildly down the road.
"By the way, Sammy, I wanted to thank you for giving me some quality time with the Doublemint Twins," Dean said looking over at his brother.
"No problem," Sam replied quietly as Alex rolled her eyes.
"Really? I mean I was expecting an eye roll or something," Dean said seriously looking back at the road.
"For the record, I rolled my eyes," Alex said folding her arms across her chest. She was not liking his attitude towards life, but she didn't think Dean had ever noticed her other than being a tag-along.
Dean ignored her as Sam said, "Well, you deserve a little fun."
"Well, I agree with you there," Dean said with a smile. "So what does Bobby got?"
"Not much," Sam said focusing his attention on the possible case in their hands.
"Crop failure and cicada swarm outside of Lincoln, Nebraska. Could be demonic omens," Alex said leaning forward so they could hear her better.
"Or could just be a bad crop and a nasty bug problem," Dean argued.
"Dean, it's our only lead," Sam said looking out the window.
"Any freaky deaths?" Dean asked looking over at them before turning back to the road.
"None that Bobby can find," Sam said.
"I don't know man since the gates opened and all those weirdo storm clouds were sighted over how many cities?" Dean asked.
"17," Alex answered leaning back into her seat. She had a sense that Dean was on the fence about Bobby's call, but she waited him out.
"Wouldn't you think it would be the apocalypse now, but it's been five days and bubkes. What are they waiting for? If there is going to be a war I wish it would start already," Dean said.
"Just be careful what you wish for," Sam said seriously.
Sam and Alex felt the same way about Dean selling his soul, angry and sad. Alex had known them growing up when John would leave the boys with Bobby, but as an adult, she hadn't gotten a chance to really know them, yet. But what she did know was that you don't just sell your soul to a demon and she knew Bobby was upset about it as well. Sam was his brother, the anger and sadness were obvious and it was because of him Dean sold his soul.
The gang ran into some other hunters, Isaac and Tamara, and were currently camping out at their place comparing notes. Dean was off somewhere talking on his phone while Sam was looking through some of the couple's things, he looked up and saw Bobby and Alex huddled together clearly having a mildly heated conversation, hands and body language moving faster than they could talk. He couldn't help but stare at the girl before him, she was probably around five foot with gorgeous long legs, a butt that fit perfectly in her jeans, and Sam knew that she would knock his 6'4" ass down with just a look from her bright green eyes.
Sam was brought back to reality when Isaac asked his wife, "Where is the Palo Santo?"
"Well, where did you leave it, dear?" Tamara asked her husband.
"Palo Santo?" Sam asked looking away from the Singer's to Tamara and Isaac.
"It's holy wood from Peru," Tamara answered, "It's toxic to demons like holy water. Keeps the bastards nailed down while you're exorcising them." She handed Isaac the Palo Santo.
"Thank you, dear," Isaac said as Bobby and Alex came to stand next to Sam. Him and Alex exchanged looks and she nodded letting him know her and Bobby were ok.
"You would lose your head if it wasn't for me," Tamara said as they continued collecting demon killing tools.
"How long have the two of you been married?" Sam asked with a smile, married hunters were very rare to come by.
"Eight years this past June," Tamara answered as Isaac gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"Family that slays together... " He said looking lovingly at his wife.
"Right, I feel you there," Sam said, "So, how did you get started?" The atmosphere changed and everyone shifted uncomfortably, Alex squeezed his hand and turned away from the happy couple. "I'm sorry, it's none of my business."
"It's alright," Tamara said as they all brushed it off.
"Well, Jenny, if you look as pretty as you sound then I would love to have an appletini," they heard Dean say to the person he was talking to on the phone. They rolled their eyes at him as he hung up the phone. At this rate he will have an STD before he goes to Hell, Alex thought to herself as she went back to going through some of Isaac and Tamara's things. "That was the coroner's tech. The family's cause of death was dehydration and starvation. There's no signs of restraint, no violence, no struggle. They just sat down and never got up."
Everyone exchanged worried glances as Dean spoke. They all couldn't figure out what could have caused it.
"But they had a fully stocked kitchen just yards away," Alex said confused.
"What is this, a demon attack?" Sam asked looking from Bobby to Dean.
"If it is, it's nothing like I've ever seen and I've seen plenty," Bobby replied shaking his head.
After arguing about stay together, Isaac and Tamara went their separate way while the other four investigated a possible demon attack the next day. Apparently, a woman just really wanted a pair of shoes another woman had purchased and beat her to death. After watching the surveillance camera they found out a guy had convinced the first woman she wanted the pair of shoes, well that's what they assumed. Now they were separating, Dean with Bobby and Same with Alex, to start tracking down the man they assumed was the demon.
"Okay, I need to say this since we're not with Bobby or Dean," Alex started once they were out of earshot of the other two hunters. "Have you noticed that Dean hasn't once actually looked at me since we started hunting together?"
Sam thought for a moment, "Wow, you're right."
Alex made a face, "What the hell? And you keep letting him walk all over you with all the 'I don't have much time' crap. I get it he is dying and you want to make him happy, but fucking everything that walks is not the way to go. Eating cheeseburgers at eight in the morning also is not the way to."
Sam didn't know what to say to her because she was right. He was letting Dean walk all over him but he felt Dean should have some time to himself with whatever made him happy. They walked a few minutes in silence but something didn't feel right, Sam felt like they were being followed and turned around.
"What's up?" Alex said stopping to look at him.
"Uh, I thought we were being followed," Sam answered survey the street. "I think we're good now."
Later that night, Bobby and Dean were sitting in the car outside a pub Dean thought the demon would be hanging out at.
"What time is it?" Bobby yawned.
Dean looked at his watch, "Seven past midnight."
"You sure this is the right place?" Bobby asked looking around the building.
"No. But I spent all day canvassing this stupid town," Dean picked up a photo, "with this guy's stupid mug, and supposedly he drinks at this stupid bar."
Sam came up on his side of the car and slammed his hand on the window making both Dean and Bobby jump. Both Sam and Alex started laughing at the two men as Dean opened the door for them to climb in. Alex climbed into the back seat first and Sam couldn't help but take a peek at Alex's ass. It's too nice not to look at, he thought to himself as he climbed in after her.
"Alright, so John Doe's name is Walter Rosen," Alex said once everyone was in the car. "He's from Chicago and went missing about a week ago."
"The night the Devil's Gate opened?" Dean asked turning around to look at them.
"Yeah," Alex answered.
"Do you think he's possessed?"
"It's a good bet," Sam answered his brother. "So, what, he just walks up to someone, touches them, and they go stark raving psycho or something?"
"Those demons that got out of the gate they're going to be able to do all kinds of things we haven't seen yet," Bobby answered keeping an eye on the pub.
"Huh, guys," Alex said moving forward in her seat to point at Walter Rosen who had just gotten out of his car and was walking up to the pub.
"Alright, showtime," Dean said getting ready to get out.
"Wait a minute," Bobby said looking over at Dean.
"What?" Dean asked confused.
"What did I just say, boy, we don't know what to expect out the guy. We should tail him till we know for sure," Bobby answered the eldest Winchester.
"Oh so if he kills someone, we just sit here with our junk in our hands," Dean argued.
"We're no good dead!" Bobby argued back. And we're not going to make a move until we know what the score is."
"Uh, Dad, I don't think that's an option," Alex said looking out Dean's window.
"Why not?" Bobby asked not paying attention.
"Look," Alex said pointing to Isaac and Tamara who just got out of their car and started making their way to the pub.
"DAMN IT!" Bobby said hitting the steering wheel.
They all got out of the car and raced to the door but it was bolted shut, so they all got back in and Bobby put it in reverse and drove the car into the building. Once inside they all spilled out throwing holy water around the room that was full of seven or so demons. When Alex got out of the car it was not a site to see, Isaac was dead on the floor next to an empty bottle of drain cleaner she assumed he was forced to drink and Tamara was being held back by another female demon screaming and crying for her husband. The demons backed off enough for Sam to grab Tamara.
"Come on, get in the car," he said to her as she continued to fight him to get to Isaac. Sam got Tamara into the backseat of the car then grabbed Alex who was closest and pushed her into the back. "Dean, come on!" he yelled getting in the car.
Bobby was able to get some demons off of him and managed to get into the driver's seat. But Dean was still haphazardly throwing holy water at every demon not listening to a word Sam was saying. Dean made his way to the trunk of the car and opened as Walter kept advancing on him, eventually Dean ran out of holy water and Walter jumped at him and they started fighting, but Dean was able to overpower him and throw him into the trunk, which had a devil's trap on the inside.
"Go, go, go, go!" Dean yelled jumping into the passenger seat of Bobby's car.
Once they had gotten back to the house they were staying at, they had Walter tied up to a chair in the other room under a devil's trap. Sam, Dean, and Tamara were arguing about going back to get Isaac and not know how many demons were back while Bobby and Alex read as fast as they could to figure out what they were up against.
"Actually we do know how many there are," Bobby said shutting up the arguing trio. "There's seven! Do you have any idea who we're up against?"
"No, who?" Dean asked confused.
Alex stepped forward towards the group, "The seven deadly sins!"
"Live and in the flesh!" Bobby said clearly concerned.
To break the silent tension Dean attempted an Se7en reference that no one got. And just gave him a look. After that Bobby explained who they had in the next room, Walter was envy, and the family they found when they met Isaac and Tamara was Sloth. Bobby then continued to argue with Tamara, she was ready to rip their throats out for what they did to Isaac, but Bobby wasn't having any of that saying the they had done it their way going in guns blazing, now it was time to learn about their enemy and not die. Alex hadn't seen her dad this mad at someone in a long time and to be honest she was a little scared of him at the moment, so she moved a step closer to Sam to try and put him between her and her father.
Eventually, things cooled down and they all made their way to the room they were holding Walter.
"So, you know know who I am, huh?" Walter said with a cocky laugh.
"We do and we're not impressed," Alex said as everyone filed in around the man.
"Why are you here? What are you after?" Sam asked.
Walter was silent so Dean said seriously, "He asked you a question. What do you want?" He was still silent so Dean threw holy water at Walter's face, which burned from the contact it made with the water.
"We already have what we want," Walter said Dean looked at him questionly, "We're out. We're free. Thanks to you, my kind are everywhere. So for me, I'm celebrating. Having a little fun."
"Fun?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, fun. See, some people crochet, others play golf. Me? I like to see people's insides on their outside," Walter replied being as nasty as he could be.
Tamara stepped toward him, "I'm going to put you down like a dog."
"Please," Walter laughed, "You really think you're better than me. Which one of can cast the first stone, huh? What about you Dean? You're practically a walking billboard of gluttony and lust. And, Tamara, all that wrath. It's the reason you and Isaac became hunters in the first place, isn't it? It's so much easier to drink in the rage than to face what really happened all those years ago."
Tamara snapped and started throwing punches in Walter's face. Bobby and Dean grabbed her on either side and dragged her away from Walter. After some talk from him about how everyone else was sinners and animals and how the others were coming for him and were going to slaughter them like animals. Dean decided he needed to be exorcised, so Tamara took it upon herself to exorcise the demon out of Walter, it did not end well for Walter.
The gang also figured that they wouldn't need to hunt them, that Walter was right, the others would come to them. After Dean argued with Sam, Bobby, and Alex about them leaving and leaving him behind to fight off six other sins they all got suited up for one hell of a battle with the six deadly sins left over.
Once all ready, static started coming from the radios around the house.
"Here we go," Dean said as he readied up with his shot gun filled with rock salt. They all then waited patiently for them to arrive.
"Tamara!" They heard Isaac call from outside. She was desperate to go to him, but she knew it wasn't him anymore. "Help me! Please!"
Tamara and Bobby stood near the front door while as Isaac made his way slowly up the front steps.
"It's not him," Bobby said, "It's one of those demons. It's possessing his corpse."
Isaac made it to the front door and started banging on it and calling out to her to help him. Tamara was slowly losing it and Bobby was trying to keep her with him.
"You're just going to let me die!? I guess that's what you do, dear," Isaac was saying through the door. "Like that night those things came to our house, came for our daughter! You just let her die, too!"
And at that Tamara lost it and flew open the front door breaking the salt line and shouting, "You son of a bitch!"
"Tamara, no!" Bobby yelled but he wasn't fast enough.
Tamara jumped onto Isaac and fell down the steps landing on top of him. "You're not Isaac!" She yelled and stabbed with the Palo Santo.
But because she broke the salt line all six sins came walking in. Five of them walked up the stairs to the main section of the house where Sam, Dean, and Alex were while one of them laid eyes on Bobby. And Bobby lured him towards a devil's trap and naturally, he got stuck there.
Bobby chuckled, "Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son." He then exorcise him.
Upstairs, Dean got cornered by one of the female sins, Lust, in the bathroom. And she was totally hitting on him. Dean couldn't help himself and started making out with Lust. After a few minutes, Dean slowly backed up enough to trick her into going head first into the tub filled with holy water. And he did that a couple more times than exorcised her. While Dean was occupied, three other sins smashed through another room where Sam and Alex were hiding, waiting for them to come in.
"Here's Johnny!" one of them said putting his hand up to stop the other two sins from advancing. He looked up and noticed a devil's trap on the ceiling. "Come on. You really think something like that is gonna fool someone like me? I mean, ME?"
"Let me guess, you're Pride," Sam said a little nervous. Alex was standing next to him just as nervous, they were outnumbered for one.
Pride smirked and with a wave of his hand broke the ceiling and in turn, broke the devil's trap. Sam and Alex exchanged small glances but didn't falter. "The root of all sin. And you are Sam Winchester," Pride said stepping toward them. "That's right I've heard of you. We've all heard of you. The prodigy, the boy king. Looking at you now, I got to tell you, don't believe the hype. You think I'm gonna to bow to a cut-rate, piss-poor human like you?"
Geez, dude, tell us how you really feel, Alex thought to herself as she listened to Pride rant on about Sam.
"I have my pride after all," Pride continued. "And now with your yellow-eyed friend dead, I guess I really don't have to do a damn thing, now, do I? You're fair game now, boy, and it's open season."
Pride stepped forward and started fighting Sam, knocking him to the ground, and the other two sins blocked Alex from helping her friend. As they both struggled to fight of the sins, a woman about Alex's height with long blonde hair stepped into the room and extracted a knife from her sheath. She then came in like a badass, slit one of the sins' throats, which in turned had let Alex go. Alex grabbed the other female sin and spun her around to face the new comer.
"YOU!" it yelled like it recognized the woman. But it was over before it started because the blonde woman drove her knife into the sins' throat, again it died instantly and fell to the floor.
Alex turned quickly to Sam who was still struggling with Pride, but Pride changed course and grabbed her, pinning her arms behind her. Sam was able to recover quickly and grabbed Pride, spun him around, and decked him one. As Pride was knocked back, the blonde woman caught just right in the throat, again, killing him instantly. Sam and Alex stood staring at the blonde woman, breathing heavily.
"Who the hell are you?" Sam asked recovering from the fight.
"I'm the girl that just saved your ass," She said with a smirk.
"Well, I just saved yours too," Sam said glancing over at Alex to make sure was doing okay.
The woman chuckled, "See you around, Sam." She turned around and left.
"Wait!" Sam tried calling her back, but she just kept walking away.
"Well, aren't you popular, Sammy," Alex said pushing her long hair back and out of her face. "They all know you by name."
Sam just rolled his eyes and went to follow the blonde woman, Alex following him. They went out into the hallway but she was nowhere to be found.
It was now morning and Sam, Dean, Alex laid all the bodies of the deceased into a pit they had dug and salted and burned them. Tamara was a few yards away giving her husband a hunter's funeral.
"Think she's gonna be alright?" Sam asked.
"No. Definitely not," Alex answered sadly, wiping her hands on her pants.
"Well, you look like Hell warmed over," Dean said to Bobby as he walked up to the trio.
"You try exorcising all night and see how you feel," Bobby replied rubbing a hand over his face.
"Any survivors, Bobby?" Sam asked hopeful.
"Well, the pretty girl and the heavy guy, they'll make it. Lifetime of therapy bills, but, still…"
"That's more than you can say about these poor bastards," Dean said pointing to the bodies they put in the pit.
"Dad, that knife. What kind of blade can kill a demon?" Alex asked seriously looking up at Bobby.
Bobby shook his head, "Yesterday, I would have told there's no such thing."
"I'm just going to ask again, who was that masked chick?" Dean asked changing the subject. "Actually, the more troubling question would be, 'how can a girl fight better than you?'"
Alex glared at him while Sam chuckled and and said, "Three demons, Dean...at once."
"Hey, whatever gets you through the night, pal," Dean said patting him on the shoulder.
"Yeah, well, if you want a troubling question, I got one for you. If we let out the seven deadly sins, what else did we let out?" Sam asked seriously. Alex put a hand on his back to try and comfort him, he was feeling so guilty about opening the gates, she had to do something.
"You're right, that is troubling," Dean said seriously watching the bodies burn.
Tamara and Bobby said their goodbyes, leaving the trio to stand outside the Impala.
"So, where to?" Dean asked rubbing his hands together.
"Uh, I don't know. I was thinking Louisiana, maybe," Sam said.
"Little early for Mardi Gras, isn't it?" Dean asked.
"Yeah. I was talking to Tamara and she mentioned this hoodoo priestess that might be able to help us out with your demon deal," Sam replied.
"Nah," Dean said, not caring.
"'Nah'? What does that mean?" Alex said confused.
Dean didn't look at her, "No hoodoo spell's gonna break this deal. It's a goose chance."
"We don't know that," Alex said trying to get him to look at her..
"Yes, we do," Dean argued. "Forget it. She can't help." Sam and Alex went to argue with him but he cut them off, "We're not going and that's that. How about Reno, huh?" He turned to walk towards the driver's side.
"Dean! Stop!" Alex called after him. "I need to speak to you." She turned to Sam and said to him, "Can you give me a minute with him?" Sam nodded and walked away from Dean and Alex. To Dean, who still wasn't looking at her, "Why won't you look at me? Why won't you acknowledge me?" Dean didn't say anything, so she grabbed his arm and turned him around to face her, but he wouldn't look her in the eye. "Dean, please. If you didn't want me to come along with you guys, you should have said something days ago. I could have just left with Bobby. I just want to understand why, all of a sudden, you won't look at me. What have I done?" tears threatening to form, because she really didn't know what she had done to be treated like this.
Dean finally looked her in they eyes and said quietly, "Alex, it isn't you. I promise, it isn't you. I can't look at you. I can't get comfortable with you. I'm going to die in a year and no matter what we do I can't get out of this deal, that's what the crossroads demon said, and it's not fair to you. You wanted to get out of Bobby's so bad. You were excited to hit the road with us and I couldn't say no to you. But.."
"You feel guilty?" Alex asked. "Dean, you're being an ass. If we can't save you, you're going to die whether we get close or not. Whether we're besties or not. So, stop acting like an ass and include me in your life. Sam's accepted me, now you need to. And if you don't want me around say the word, I will leave, no feelings hurt."
"Stay with us, Alex."
At that moment Sam came back to them ready to argue with Dean about him making the deal in the first place, so Alex decided to get in the car and let them hash it out, because, in all honesty, it needed to be done for days now. By the time they were done they had cool off enough and got into the car and they drove off.
