Chapter 1

"Anna, wake up, lazy. We have a case."dean yelled really loudly.

Anna's emerald green eyes slowly opened and she hazily stared at her older brother. "Seriously? I feel like I just went to sleep," she said, stretching before sitting up in the bed her and her twin shared. Sam smiled down at her quickly before gathering his stuff and heading towards the car. Dean made his way forward and ruffled her hair.

"Come on, Shortie," he said, forcing her out of bed. She sent him a small glare before gathering her stuff and heading to the bathroom. Once inside, she changed into one of Dean's long sleeve button up shirts and some some black jeans. She threw her dirty clothes in another bag and opened the door. Dean was waiting for her and grabbed her stuff.

Anna sniffed and pulled her chocolate brown hair up into a ponytail. She sighed when her fingers brushed against one of the scars on her collar bone and hastily pulled it back down. Her hands ran up and down her arms, feeling the scars that lined her skin. She started to feel more self conscious.

"Stop it, Anna," Dean said, observing her in the mirror with a sad look on his face.

"Sorry, Dean, I can't help it sometimes," she said, her eyes looking past Dean. Sam turned and gave her a small smile.

"Just go to sleep, sis. We'll wake you when we get there," he reassured

.Anna sent him that same identical smile before slowly laying down in the back seat, using her arm as a pillow. When her eyes closed, Sam and Dean glanced at each other. "At least her nightmares are getting better," Sam offered quietly Dean's face hardened and his hands tightened on the steering wheel.

"She shouldn't be having nightmares in the first place, Sammy," he said 'tensely. Dean shook his head, trying to push back those horrible memories.

It took Sam and Dean three weeks to find Anna, and by then she was damaged. She suffered night terrors-some worse than Sam's. She also faced anxiety attacks. She would randomly start spouting Latin or any ancient language. She stayed in the hospital for 2 months due to her injuries, but they were only just starting to heal her emotions and her mind.

She still had nightmares, but now took some medicine for them, and slept next to her brothers. Ever since they found her, the brothers were much more protective. She couldn't leave their sight, and she was never allowed to hunt with them. She was with Sam and doing research most of the time. But that was okay with her considering she was good at would be the first time since the attack she was allowed to hunt again.

In the backseat, Anna yawned and curled up even more. Dean slowed the car down and brought the Impala to a halt, going to the back and opening the trunk. He grabbed her red, white and green polka-dotted blanket and laid it over her. He also grabbed a small pillow and placed it under her head.

"Thank you," Anna whispered. Dean smiled and patted her leg, before getting hopping back in the car. TThe three siblings drove off, heading to Crawford Hall.

...

Hours later, Sam shook Annie awake. "Hey Annie, we're here."

"Yaaaay," she said sarcastically.

Dean was in the front office of the motel getting a room, and taking his sweet time too. Probably flirting with with the chick at the front desk. He came back ten minutes later with the key and a piece of paper with a number on it.

"Can't you keep it in your damn pants for one day, Dean?" asked Annie.

"Hey a guy has needs, sis."

"Man whore," she muttered, making Sam disguise a laugh into a cough. "Soooo? Am I allowed to come with you guys on this hunt or do I have to babysit the cockroaches in here again?"

Sam sighed, "Annie, it's not that we don't want you to hunt with us. It's...just, well, we'd rather you not get hurt."

"Sam, I've been cooped up in motel after motel. I am going stir crazy! And I'm fine. For the last time, I am fine." 'Annie was trying to convince herself more than anyone' Sam looked at Dean, having a silent conversation.

"Annie," Dean said as be sat backwards in the chair next to her, "if you really want to start helping us more, I'm not gonna argue."

This surprised annie she thought for sure they'd tell her she ,hell no again like the been doing."Okay, so what are we dealing with?" 'she asked, trying to sound casual, though she was barely containing her excitement'

"We not sure just yet." 'Dean stated'

"That's why we're gonna go to the bar and talk to some of the college kids," Dean informed' "maybe get some info."

"Yaaay," Annie said sarcastically. "I'll stay at the bar while you guys do your thing."

"Lazy," muttered Dean.

"What was that?" snapped Annie said threateningly

"Nothing," Dean said in fearful voice.

"That's what I thought."

Sam hid another laugh with a fake cough ,only annie can makedean cower in fear,ever since that prank war that happened between them he trys no to piss her off as much,she got very creative with super glue...

They now know not to insult her unless you wont to have your Dignity ripped from you.

...

Annie sat at the bar while her brothers were asking questions. Well, Sam asking questions while Dean had his arms around some chick whose name he'd probably never remember. He kept chugging down shots of some weird drink called a 'purple nurple'. 'Hah, moron, he'll regret it in the morning with how much he's drinking', Annie thought.

"Can I buy you a drink?" said a smooth voice. Annie jumped. 'Annie glanced over her shoulder at the new presence beside her,he wasn't tall but he wasnt short either, he had honey brown hair with whiskey colored eyes,he radiated a charming aura, he seemed harless enough, he didn't make her feel threated at which was werid. "Sorry didn't mean to scare you, sweetcheeks."

"It's fine and no thank you, I'm good," she declined, taking a sip of her rum and coke. The alcohol calmed her nerves slightly.

"So what brings you here?"

"Here with my weirdo brothers."

"Where are they?"

"Well one is currently getting filled in on campus gossip and the other one is knees deep in purple nurples."

"Hah," he laughed. "Oh I'm sorry! Name's Gabe," he added, sicking out his hand.

"Annie, but everyone calls me Anna," she 'introduced herself , shaking his hand. the moment her skin touched his, an electric current went through her- and not in a bad way either. She quickly dropped his hand. She immediately missed the contact.'She hastily changed the subject to distract herself. "So do you go to school here?"

"Nah, I work here. I'm one of the janitors here. It's not a living, but it pays the bills."

"I know what you mean," she said.

They sat at the bar for 2 or 3 hours talking about everything and nothing. Annie felt comfortable around him for some reason. He made her feel normal; not like a freak. For almost a year, she felt threatened by everyone except her brothers and Bobby. Ever since the incident. But somehow, this guy wormed his way into her heart.

"So, has any drama been going on around here?" she questioned curiously.

"Yeah, there has. We recently has someone commit suicide."

"Oh, really who?"

"One of the professors."

"Wow I-"

"Annie, come on we're leaving!" yelled Sam from across the bar.

Annie was disappointed by this she doesn't want to leave the conversation but she didn't want to be left behind. "I got to go," she said ruefully.

"Is there any way I can contact you?" Gabe asked with pleading eyes. Annie's heart jumped in her chest. She quickly fetched her pen out her jacket pocket, grabbed his hand and wrote her number in the palm of his hand. Feeling brave for a split second, she winked.

"See you around, Gabe."

She turned and ran to catch up with her brothers before they left her and made her walk the distance to the motel. 'Ah I feel like an idiot. I made a complete ass of myself,' Annie thought, cursing herself. She never saw the smirk on Gabe's face when she left. Looking at the clock, he noticed it was almost time for his shift. He hurriedly programmed the number into his phone, and got up to leave.

He didn't understand it. All this time on earth and never has one woman made him feel like the whole world had stopped spinning just with a damn hand shake!

...

The next night, Annie and the boys went to go check out the college. Gabe just so happened to be one of the janitors cleaning up that night.

"So, how long have you been working here?" Sam asked Gabe curiously.

"I've been mopping this floor for six years," he replied, pushing open the door to the dark office and flicking on the lights. "There you go, guys." The siblings entered the room and Sam pulled out his EMF.

"What the heck's that for?" Gabe questioned, taking note of the EMF meter in Sam's hands.

"It's an asshole meter. Strangely, it always goes off when Dean's in the room," joked Annie. Gabe wore a big smile on his face, trying not to laugh. Sam quickly lied about their actual reasoning, while giving his sister bitchface number 34# it sent a clear message-shut the hell up! Dean flipped her off, making her chuckle.

"Huh. Wow. Not sure why you're wiring up this office. Not gonna do the professor much good,"'Gabe said, sobering after Annie's snide comment'.

Dean looked over his shoulder at him. "Why's that?"

"He's dead," Gabe replied bluntly.

Dean, and Sam faked surprise,but Annie didnt bother he already told her about the murder. "Oh. What happened?" Dean asked.

Gabe pointed towards the window behind me. A light breeze danced along the curtains. "He went out that window. Right there."

"Man, he ever hear of an elevator?," annie commented. "He must have been in a hurry to get out of here to take door number 2." Gabe just smiled.

"He must have," he agreed. "I'm the one who found him. I just saw him come up here, and uh… well."

Annie quirked an eyebrow, moving to stand beside Sam, facing him. "What?" Sam questioned.

"He wasn't alone," Gabe concluded with a smirk. This time both of Annies eyebrows rose. Dean came up to stand next to her.

"Who waz he wiff," Dean asked through a mouth of something—she thinks they were caramels. Sam shot him a look of irritation as he tried to chew through his chipmunk cheeks annie started giggling. 'Dear lord, my brother is an idiot,' she thought in amusement.

"He was with a young lady. I told the cops about her, but I guess they never found her."

"You saw this girl go in?" Sam continued to question. "Did you ever see her come out?"

Gabe shook his head. "Now that you mention it, no," he said, frowning.

"That's weird," I stated, exchanging a glance with Sam. "What about beforehand was she ever around?"

"Well, not her," the he said with another smirk.

"Whadd'ou mean?" Dean spoke muffled once again. annie suppress the big laugh that wanted to brust out of her mouth.

"Dumbass," she mumbled quietly. Although, she thought Gabe heard her. His eyes shifted towards her and a smirk appeared on his face.

"I don't mean to cast aspersions on a dead guy," Gabe explained with his smirk, "But Mister Morality? He brought a lot of girls up here…Got more ass than a toilet seat." Dean laughed loudly at the comment, some of the half-chewed candy dropping from his mouth in a slobbery mess'. 'I hope you chokes on some,' Annie scoffed,dean rolled his eyes , Sam glares at both of them.

After Sam was done glaring at Dean and Annie he added, "One more thing. This building, it only has four stories, right? There wouldn't be a room six-six-nine?" Gabe gave one short shake of his head.

"'Course not. Why do you ask?" he responded, sounding confused.

"Just curious," Sam smiled, exchanging one last knowing look with me. "Thanks." I followed my brothers out of the office.

"Hey, Annie, want one?" offered Dean, 'stretching out his candy-filled palm.

'She glanced down at Dean's hand with clear distain and responded, "Can you say diabetes? No thanks, bro, I'm good."

"Whatever, your loss," he said, stuffing more into his mouth.

'As I said before, I hope he chokes,' Annie thought to herself, shaking her head at her ridiculous older brother.

...

The following morning, Annie woke up much earlier than her brothers. The nightmares were starting to get worse-almost as bad as they used to be. Now, they were to the point where she would wake up in the middle of the night, her scars burning and aching like they where freshly made.

She rose from her bed and wrote a note, explaining to her brothers where she had gone so they didn't worry. They had been getting little sleep because of her lately, so she let them sleep in.

Annie felt so guilty that her brothers hardly got any sleep because of her she felt like a burde to them she felt week because she was taken when they where suppose to be finding dad. She felt like the boys deserve to at lest sleep in for a few hours more and not be up at the crak ass of dawn.

It was barley morning,it was extremely chilly outside Annie pulled up her black hoodie up around her ear so she wouldnt freeze.

Maybe it would be better to go snooping around right now because barley anyone was up and about at this time, except for the college students that had early classes.

The sun was just starting to rise.

"What brings you out here so early, sweetcheeks?"

Annie jumped and released some sort of noise between a squeak and a scream. She whirled around to see the culprit. With distinct surprise, she recognized the man behind her as someone who seemed to be popping up quite a bit lately. Gabe smiled at her, trying not to laugh at her surprised expression.

"Oh! I, um...I was just going for a walk," she stuttered, recovering from the initial shock of running into the janitor again.

"At 6:30am?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I'm an early raiser," she countered. "What about you?"

"Going to the coffee shop. Care to join me?" he offered hopefully.

"I, um...what the hell. Sure why not."

"Alright, come on, it's this way," he said, pointing to the opposite side of the street.

They fell into step, side by side. Annie spared a few glances over at Gabe in almost amazement; this practical stranger was everywhere. Strangely, she didn't seemed to mind at all. 'When they strolled into the small, old-fashioned coffee shop, it was packed.

"Wow, what's what all the commotion?" asked Annie.

"I don't know," Gabe replied truthfully. "Hold on, I'll find out." He approached the counter and proceed to chat with one of the employees. The guy just laughed, shaking his head and handed him the school paper.

"Whats that?" Annie asked when he returned to her side.

"It says one of the college boys claims he was abducted by aliens last night."

Annie took the paper off Gabe and started to read it. She then she began laughing uncontrollably, her face turning a shade of red and her eyes threatening to leak tears. 'Why would the kid claim that?'

"Probably some prank they pulled on him," Gabe shrugged. "I've seen the little douche around campus.' The guy has a lot of enemies. He's the school jock-slash-bully."

"Well, whoever pulled that off is a freaking genius," she said laughing. She didn't notice Gabe's wide grin at her praise. They took their seats in one of the booths in the back of the coffee shop. A thin waitress with 'curly dark hair came strolling towards them.

"What can I get you guys?" asked the waitress cheerfully, a pen already placed to a notepad in her hands.

"Um, can I have a hot chocolate please?" asked Annie politely.

"Same for me," Gabe added.

"Sure thing. I'll be right back with your drinks."

Annie watched the waitress swiftly walk away. She returned her attention to Gabe, a small smile gracing her lips. He returned it, trying to cover up the fact that he had been watching her admirably, "So what do you and your brothers do?" he asked, making conversation despite already knowing the answer.

"Oh, just odd jobs here and there. We've been on the road a lot since we were kids because of my Dad's job."

"What did he do?"

"Umm," Annie thought out loud, formulating a fast lie in her head, "he was a mechanic. He jumped around from job to job, and we traveled everywhere and he kind of dragged us kids along with him'.

"You guys fix cars too?"

"Not really...but my brother does sometimes."

"Sounds like a weird childhood."

Annie scoffed at the truth behind that statement and gave him a gentle smile. "You're telling me."

They spent a hour talking

She found out gabe had tons of brothers and sister but they dont talk anymore.

He learned that she had a troubled past,gabe could tell something was bothering her,he could also see the many scars on soul,but it made it shine brighter.

He wanted to keep asking questions and find out more to the mystery that was Annie Winchester.

until brother called her, wondering where she was.

"I got to go," she said, standing up from the table they had claimed. Gabe stood as well, looking slightly disappointed. "It was nice talking to you, Gabe. Again."

"Yeah, you too, Annie," he smiled. "Maybe I'll see you again sometime?" he added with a hopeful look in his eyes, before she could walk away.

"Sure, just give me a call," she agreed, beaming.

"Yeah, definitely!" he said in a cheerful voice. It was as if the guy just won the damn lotto.

...

On the late shift, Gabe was peeking in on one of the research scientists that had stayed late. He had been trying lay low from the hunters in town, but Gabe couldn't help but notice the balding man in the laboratory was not alone. A high pitched whine of pain echoed through the room. It was -a puppy almost- no it was a puppy and it made Gabe's spine straighten. He stopped mopping and looked in the window, spotting the scientist removing a needle from the black puppy's neck. He had injected something into the puppy's blood stream. Gabe watched through the small window. The poor thing jumped away as soon as it was released, knocking off some jars on the metal table it was on. Its joints flopped like a rag doll for a moment.

What ticked off Gabe the most was that the man was not sympathetic at all, shaking his head and taking notes. The puppy twitched,whimpered,and cryied its limbs starting to move again, but it didn't seem to regain its coordination. Something was off. 'The kind of 'dead in the wild' off; putting it out of its misery would be a kindness. But no. This idiot was taking notes,not helping one bit,just taking notes!

The scientist seemed to be satisfied and he took up another syringe from the holder. The puppy kicked and whined weakly,shuting itsveyes in pain,as it was given the shot,The poor thing seemed to come back, kicking more urgently, but the coordination was still off too slow. It didn't quite get back to its feet before it was picked up by the scruff like a pup and thrown back into the high cage above the table hard in an uncaring manner,which piss the archangel off even more, With a few more scribbles of his pen, the man looked at the clock. Seeing what time it was, he locked his files up and covered the cage. The scientist hustled out, keeping his dirty secret safe with locks and curtains as he pushed through the door and swiftly locked it behind him. The balding idiot didn't even see Gabe, who had already popped himself inside the lab as soon as the door was closed.

The interior already smelled of sterile death. Gabe snapped his fingers, popping the lock easily on the files. He picked out the file and flicked through it. It was 10 pages long and contained information on 8 deceased street dogs and them all failing like the others. The final decision would be concluded in the morning if the canine was still alive. Gabe closed the file and dropped it back into the filing cabinet. He didn't bother locking it again.

Gabe pulled the sheet from the cage and the little black puppy twitched, and growling at him. It scrambled away, working the best it could on its limbs and leaned heavily against the bars. It huddled in the back of the cage, trying to seem like a fearsome creature, Gabes eyes flickered over the puppy who was deteriorating right before his eyes; the injection rapidly coursed through the puppy's system. Gabe yanked the lock off with ease, metal twisting, and he tossed it over his shoulder not caring where it opened the cage and the puppy growled with as much strength as it could muster,which wasnt very much it sounded more like a whimper than anything, Gabe didn't blame the poor thing. The latest human had poked and prodded its internal organs with a deadly cocktail-and for what? For curiosity. It wasn't even a human disease he was working with,which pissed him off.

"Hey there it's okay." A calming smile eased its way onto Gabe's face. He leaned his hands on the edge of the cage, keeping a distance from the pained and frightened poor thing was a pretty skinny and malnourished black lab. The poor thing had to be starving by the state of it ribs. "Hey , are you hungry? I'm sure this jackass hasn't even made an effort to feed you," Gabe spoke softly.

Gabe snapped his fingers and a bowl of soft dog food in a sliver bowl appeared near the dog. The little puppy stopped growling and its little nose started twitching. Almost immediately, the dog started drooling licking its lips and half-dragged its boney body over to the bowl to ravish the food. Gabe grinned, "There you go, eat up. Just going to have a peek at how bad the damage is..." Gabe slowly reached forward, fingers resting on the dog's long soft black fur. Gabe tsked; the poor things organs were failing, even though the dog was finally consuming food and this is when he also found out the little puppy was a female and was only 2 mouths old, It was sad and pathetic, and, well...the archangel was a sucker for wounded animals and puppys.

Gabe started petting up and down up the dog's back and finally rested his fingers on the pups head. All of the ailments melted away with a touch of his grace. The puppy perked up immediately and started gulping down the dog food as if it was water she was practically inhaling the food. Gabe chuckled, petting the puppys side. Its tail finally untucked itself from between her legs and started to wag. "There's a good girl-hey! Watch it sweetheart, I won't cure indigestion for ya! Everyone get's one cure-all, got that?" The little puppy looked up from the bowl that was now licked clean and at Gabriel before she pushed her muzzle against Gabriel's angel grinned and rubbed the pups's ears.

The smile slowly fell as Gabe thought back to the scientist. If there was anyone who was going to get the next punishment, it was that guy. But what was befitting for animal torture and death? Gabe's mind reeled through the magazine articles he'd collected and his mouth slowly curled into a smirk befitting a true trickster.

"Hey cutie, how would you like to see something funny?" Gabe spoke mischievously to the puppy,and when the puppy panted with perked ears at him, he ruffled her head affectionately. "Now that's what I like to hear . Come on, sweetie, let's go say goodbye to your former personal guard." Gabe snapped his fingers, poofing them outside where the research scientist was walking towards his car. The puppy immediately hid behind Gabe's shoes. A low whining erupted from her smiled at the puppy. "It's okay,sweetie, you're safe with me." Gabe snapped his fingers and the man peered into the sewer grate with a moment of fascination. The man's eyes widened and greed struck him. Gabe knew the man was a greedy one...but if he so chose, the man could by pass the watch the angel placed, and prove that he was not a stupid bottom feeder.

Of course, the man only proved Gabe right. The archangel waved his hand and seconds later a hungry gator was next to the watch. It ate the stupid man effortlessly. Perhaps the asshat would have only lost an arm, but he was so focused on that damn watch that the gator pulled him in. Gabe sighed and looked at the puppy who was braced against Gabe, clear fear struck through her tiny body.

Gabe laughed. "Oh please, he's an asshole...and he's still going upstairs. I swear, I'm not sure what they're doing with the system up there these days..." The puppy whimpered. The screams ceased and now the smell of sewer and blood mixed with the wet street. Gabe stood quietly. "Sometimes...I see what Lucifer saw in these guys."

The little puppy took uneasy steps, realizing her sudden freedom. Her untrimmed claws scraped against the concrete. Gabriel smiled at the litt puppy. "You're free. You can go wherever you like." She looked at him with her large, wondrous blue eyes. "I can poof you anywhere. A coddling family, a dog park, an adoption center. You name it, you're there." she was still; then, her tail wagged with such force her whole body moved from side to side and she jumped in place, barking.

Gabe blinked. "Oh really?"she yipped, jumping again, her tongue catching Gabe's chin when he bent down looking her in the laughed, "Well, if you insist, sweethart. But you'll get fat the way I'll feed you." Gabe walked home and the dog followed close behind. The dog suddenly barked. "What do you mean you don't have a name?"

"Rrarf!"

"Fine, I'll give you one. I'll name you...pepper. Because you know what my 2nd favorite drink is?"

"Raw-awf!"

"Eww gross, no, . Its doc pepper but i really cant name you after my other favorite ,It's Pepsi Max.I dought you'd won't the name Pepsi, right? He reseved a growle as an ,that's what I thought he laughed.

I'm going to have to educate you on proper pop drinks. Toilet water isn't even close to the list of good soda-pop!"

"Raw-awf!"

"Yeah, yeah, I know right!"
