Chapter 1

The half-moon was obscured by several stray clouds as she pushed her way through the dark forest. The sounds of the night echoed around her when she peered around trying to get her bearings. She was cold and hungry, but knew she had to keep moving to avoid detection. The going was slow as the light of the moon disappeared making the way even darker. She stumbled once catching herself on a tree before falling completely to the forest floor.

Her breathing was ragged and shallow as she looked around trying to decide which way to go. Visibility was sparse and nothing looked familiar. Turning around in a circle, she tried to determine the easiest way out of the forest. Something was looking for her, she could sense it nearby. She had to stay away from it, she couldn't let it capture her.

The night became still as all noises ceased. Pausing and listening closely, she heard the faint rustle of leaves coming from behind her. Her blood ran cold in her veins as she turned to run only to catch her foot on a root and fall down a small incline to a dry creek bed below. A dark shadow stood on the ridge and looked down at her and all she could feel was rage, evil and destruction.

Oree sat up suddenly in bed as the memories of the dream faded from her thoughts. She brushed sleep from her eyes and glanced at the clock. It was after six am and she knew there would be no more sleep for her. She threw back the covers and headed for the kitchen to start water for tea. The dream had been an occurring one for the past several weeks and she filed away the details she remembered for later. Oree could never recall all the details of the dream no matter how hard she tried or how many times she had the dream.

She picked up her cell phone, but knew it was too early to call her brothers. She had got some bad vibes the past month, but couldn't get either brother to talk about what was going on. Both would be elusive when she was able to get in touch with them. They had not visited in nearly four weeks, which alerted her that they were avoiding contact. Both were being stubborn and when she saw them again, they were going to get a tongue lashing or worse. She didn't take kindly to be kept in the dark. Sam was blocking her thoughts and Dean, he was being Dean.

Oree poured water over her special blend of tea leaves and covered it to let it steep. She pulled a scone out of the bread box and began to munch on it as her tea cooled. Her brain began to sort and work, deciding the best plan of attack. She was going to get to the bottom of this mystery once and for all. She was not sure if her dream had something to do with her brothers, but she was going to find out.

Sam typed on his laptop as he tried to find more details about the people who had gone missing over the past several months. He glanced over at the empty bed in the room and wondered where Dean was, wondered what he was hunting. They had not spoken or seen each other in over a month. They had disagreements and fights in the past and had parted ways, but never for this long. Sam missed his brother and especially his kid sister. Neither brother wanted to tell her of their argument and split and see the disappointment in her eyes or face her wrath.

Oree had become an important part of their lives now, it was hard not seeing her and talking to her. Sam was able to confide in her about anything. There were even things he had never told Dean and never would, but Oree listened, never judged, gave valued advise, and helped him see the 'silver lining' when he though all was lost. Oree was his rock, his anchor, and he was ashamed of himself for letting this separation go on this long. He had to admit, both Dean and him were at fault in this argument, both were hard-headed, neither wanting to be the first to say I'm sorry.

Sam decided after this hunt was finished, he would track Dean down and try to make peace. Too many friends and family had been lost during their lives, he couldn't risk losing his brother like this. He had always been the level-headed one growing up, the one who calculated different outcomes before reacting. Not like Dean who jumped in feet first and figure out the fallout afterwards. If he had to be the one to act first so be it. They were much better together, having each other's back no matter what. Yes, after this hunt, it would be time for them to join forces again, to be family.

"Singer Salvage." Bobby growled into the phone wondering who would be calling this early on a Saturday morning.

"Bobby, I expect some answers, what's going on?" Oree questioned without any polite introduction.

There was a pause at the other end as Bobby clenched his jaw, realizing the boys hadn't told Oree what had happened. Of course she would call him to find out what had happened between her brothers. Oree knew if anyone who know he would being he was part of their small family.

"Have you talked to those idjit brothers of yours?" he finally asked breaking the silence.

"They seem to be avoiding me and when they do call, they only talk for a couple of minutes. I know something's wrong, I'm not blind, now are you going to start talking or am I going to have to ask in person?"

"Whoa there lass, don't get your panties in a wad, calm down." Bobby cautioned her. "You need to respect your elders. Leave it to the boys to keep you in the dark, I could tan both their hides."

"Will you tell me?" she asked in a calmer voice. "I'm worried, something's wrong I just know it."

Bobby could hear the worry and concern in her voice knowing how close those three were, he couldn't deny her an answer.

"Your brothers had a falling out and split up."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Nope, you know your brothers. Guess they didn't want to worry you. You know how protective they are of you."

"That's a load of crap, they were afraid weren't they?"

"You bet ya." he huffed. "I told them ya'd know somethin' was wrong, but do they listen to the old man who is wiser, no. They just try to avoid the issue as long as they can."

"Do you know where they are?"

"No, haven't heard from them in a week or two."

"Thanks Bobby, if you do let me know. Sorry 'bout getting upset with ya." Oree said.

"I know it's 'cause ya're worried. You just find those brothers of yours and knock some sense into their hard heads."

"Believe me I will." she replied hanging up as she paced madly across the room. "Angel I need help, can you hear me?" she prayed softly.

A slight breeze and swish of wings let her know he was behind her. She turned to see Castiel standing there, looking expectantly at her. Castiel had visited Oree when she prayed for him and had kept an eye on her since their return from Purgatory. He had helped her train on some of the powers she was developing and found her companionship pleasant and enjoyable.

They became closer and still were able to interact quickly and efficiently if needed, due to their time in Purgatory. Oree had shown him some of the fun things humans did, like introducing him to fishing, hiking, bird watching and gardening. Castiel enjoyed what time he could spend with her and all the things she was showing and teaching him. Humans and their emotions still puzzled him, but he was beginning to understand them more through Aurora. Even though she wasn't completely human, she was giving him great insight.

"Aurora are you ill?" he inquired searching her for injuries.

"No Cas, it's my dumb ass brothers. Did you know they split up for some stupid reason?"

"Dean told me Sam was checking out some leads on a case in another town when I asked about his whereabouts, but I felt he was holding back." he admitted. "I try not to invade his privacy, he doesn't like it when I do. He wants his personal space."

"Well it seems something went down and I need to find them and get to the bottom of this. Can you help me?"

"Yes." Castiel said squinting his eyes and concentrating on the brothers. "Dean is south of here about a day's drive, but Sam is shielded from me. I'm not sure this is a good thing."

"How 'bout giving Dee a message for me. He needs to get his sorry ass up here and help me find our brother. He does not want me to come looking for him, it he knows what's good for him. Sam may be in trouble and need our help."

"As you wish and it was good to see you again Aurora." he said. "I did that right correct?"

"You too Angel." she said affectionately. "And yes, that was right, looks like my lessons are working."

Castiel vanished leaving her standing alone in the living room. She decided to do a locator spell on Sam to see if she could find him. Oree headed for his bedroom and grabbed his brush off the dresser to get hairs for the spell. The brothers had decided to leave some personal things there since they visited her as often as they could. This was now a second home for them, Bobby's being the first of course. Oree was pleased that her brothers felt comfortable enough to call her home their home too. She thanked God every day that she found them and they became a family.
