After two hours of Sam text messaging her about her well being, the bar had finally slowed. Only three other people were still around; the two guys playing pool and the bartender himself. The subtle conversation and body language made her believe they were all demons.
When Sam came in the bartender looked aggravated. "You sure left your girlfriend hanging all night man, we're about to close up."
"Right, got tied up. You ready to go?"
Kayla watched one of the men go into the restrooms and nodded. "Just let me go to the bathroom first." I'll take out the guy in the bathroom, see if you can do something with his buddy before you Jedi the bartender.
The 'tender isn't going to just sit back and let it happen.
Well I'll be right back then.
She glanced back to make sure the others weren't watching before slipping into the men's bathroom.
He looked up. "You lost baby?" He grinned. "Or just looking for some action?"
"I'm definitely looking for some action." She approached slowly while reaching behind her to draw out her blade.
The demon must have seen the flash of silver in the mirror; its eyes turned black and he shoved her against the wall. "You must be new at this if you think that will kill me."
"Yeah?" She held the blade up to give him a closer look.
Ruby's knife was apparently well known. It cocked its head and smirked. "You must be Kayla. So sorry to hear about Dean, but I hear he's having a great…" He gasped as she drove the dagger into its chest; she wasn't there to make small talk. From the bar she heard a loud crash and she ran into the room.
Sam was laid on his back on the pool table, a broken chair fell to the floor next to him. "They heard you."
"Well sorry."
The bartender sent Kayla flying with a wave of his hand but Sam was unaffected. He calmly picked up Ruby's dagger from where she dropped it and approached the other demon. With a look of panic it lurched at him, getting in one good punch before Sam buried the blade into its shoulder.
He stared down the last demon, who was eyeing the doorway trying to decide if he could make it.
"You can't."
"I'm not telling you anything." He tried to sound spiteful but the edge of fear was evident in his voice.
"I don't want you to tell me anything. I just want you gone." Sam held up his hand.
The demon's eyes widened and he leaned over on the bar. He started gagging, like he was choking and the familiar smoke of a demon possession came streaming out of his mouth.
Kayla walked over and looked at him, the man had fallen to the floor but was now moving, completely demon-free. "Jesus Sam, that was fricken' awesome."
"Yeah." He laughed painfully and sat heavily in the nearest chair.
"Are you ok?" She pulled the migraine bottle out of her purse and dumped the pills into his hand.
"You're my hero." He popped them into his mouth as three more demons entered the bar.
Kayla took the knife from him and stood quickly, with Sam being weak after the mind-exorcism, things could get interesting. "Let's dance guys."
