Sam and I got out of the car and watched it pull out of the parking lot. I walked up to their room, room 17, with Sam and sat down on one of the beds, waiting for Sam to explain to me what they were talking about. He looked at the floor and quickly started his explanation with his girlfriend dying just like my boyfriend had. He told me about how he had had dreams of it happening days before it did. He explained that he had died and Dean had sold his soul to bring him back. He said that Yellow Eyes was a demon who gave babies, on their six month birthdays demon blood. After doing that he killed the mother's just like my boyfriend was killed. He also said that Dean had shot and killed the demon with a special gun. He explained that he was the last surviving member of the group of children who had demon blood inside them. He then said that he had had dreams about my boyfriend dying, just as he had had dreams about Jess's death. He explained that after Yellow Eyes' death all of the weird deaths surrounding the 'special' children had stopped, until tonight. At the end of his story he looked up at me, only to that all of the blood had drained out of my face.
"What's the matter?" he asked, "Well apart from some whack-job of a demon trying to kill you. I'm sorry, was that to much for you to handle?" I swallowed and took a few deep breaths. I somehow managed to stammer out "I, I mean, I had dreams about Josh, my boyfriend, dying, like, before he did. I thought they were just dreams, but they were pretty damn accurate. Him on the ceiling, the white-eyed girl, you two, even. Does that mean that, that I have demon blood inside me? Is that why my mom was killed? Am I even human?" I finished in a whisper.
He looked at me in surprise, "Did your mom die in a house fire on your six month birthday by any chance?" "I looked back at him in equal surprise, "How did you know that? Ya, she did." Trying to break the silence that had settled over us, I asked, "Does Dean know about the whole demon blood thing?" "No, you and I are the only two living people who know." "Why is Lilith starting it up again, did you guys think that the yellow eyed guy had something to do with it?" "I honestly don't know," Sam replied. "Well, I do have a guess; Lilith kind of wants my head on a stick, as well as probably wanting Dean back in Hell. She knew that if we thought Yellow Eyes was still alive we would walk straight into her trap." "Why didn't she kill you then?" I asked, confused, once again. "I don't know," Sam said, after a few minutes of silence he added, "I wonder what's taking Dean so long, it's been like an hour since he went out to get dinner."
While Sam tried to call Dean, I thought over the news I had just learned, I was still trying to digest it. I thought back to the times when I had asked my father why my mom had died. Was it because of me? Was it my fault that my mom and Josh had died?
I was interrupted from my thoughts when I heard Sam mutter, "Son of a bitch." I looked up in surprise, "What'd he say" I asked. "Oh, Dean?" Sam replied angrily. He decided to drive to Bobby's, said he needed some answers and Bobby was the only person who could give them to him. Didn't want us tagging along so he didn't bother telling us! Honestly, I can't believe him! Well actually I can, it is just like something he'd do! Are you hungry? It has been hours since I ate last. Do you want to go see if this town has any good restaurants?" "Um, actually, I'm not that hungry, I think I'll just stay here, if that's all right?" "Ya, no problem, you want me to bring you something?" "I'm good, thanks though Sam."
As soon as Sam left the room, I collapsed on the bed and finally let myself cry. This could not be happening! Josh couldn't be dead. We were supposed to get married. Why did Bobby have to go drag me back into all this. Why did that Lilith chick come after Josh! I could understand if it had come after me, I mean, I've sent tons of demons back to Hell, but Josh, Josh had nothing to do with any of this. I'd never told him the truth about what my dad did or even that this stuff was real! Why had the demon chosen to kill him! The question I had been trying to banish for hours came back to mind. Was it my fault Josh was dead?
"Hey Bobby, its Dean, could you let me in please?" "Dean," Bobby stammered, "I, you…you…you're supposed to be in Hell! "Ya, well…" "If Sam made another deal, hell, I'll kill you both!" Bobby said, suddenly angry. "How do I know you're not just possessed?" he finished. "Ya, I expected you would ask me that, where's your devils trap?" Bobby watched as Dean walked in and then out of the devils trap he had drawn in front of the door. "Ok, so you're not possessed, how the hell did you get out of Hell? I'm sure they didn't just let you out?" "That's kind of why I'm here. Sam swears he didn't make a deal, and to be honest I doubt that Lilith would let him, but I have no idea how I got out of the pit," Dean replied. "Oh," Bobby said, "you want to summon Lilith?" "Is that a question, or a statement?" Dean asked. "It's a question, Dean; you can't possibly expect me to help you summon the demon that sent you to Hell and wants to kill your brother, can you?" "Ya, I was kind of hoping you'd help, cause if you don't I'll have to do it by myself and…" Dean trailed off as Bobby gave him a dirty look then said, "Please, Bobby, I don't know what else to do, I have to know that… Bobby please, I'm scared Sam might have done something. I have to be sure." "Fine, come in Dean, I'm only doing this cause I don't want you doing it by yourself."
Bobby and Dean set up the summoning ritual and drew a super-large devil's trap then, "I don't know if this is going to work Dean, this is for normal demons, not, whatever Lilith is, she might be to powerful." "Don't worry Bobby, if she knows that I'm summoning her, she'll come." Bobby replied, "That's what I'm worried about, how do we know that she won't bring some of her demon friends and kill us both?" asked Bobby. "We don't, but if she does bring some of her 'friends' I doubt they'll kill us," Dean answered calmly, "they will need us to let them out of the devils trap.
After performing the ritual, Dean and Bobby look around then see the little girl that was acting as a host body to Lilith.
"Where, where am I?" the little girl asked in a scared voice. "Drop the act, we know it's you Lilith, we're not stupid," Dean replied in a harsh tone. "Are you sure about that?" Lilith asked in a teasing grown-up voice. "Dean, Bobby, how nice to see you, in fact I meant to stop by earlier and see if you got out of Hell all right Dean," Lilith stated. "About that," Dean said, "how the hell did I get out?" "I let you out", was Lilith's simple reply. Before Dean could say anything she went on, "You see, I realized that I had made a dreadful mistake, sending you to Hell like that." With you out of the way, there was no one here who could stop little Sammy from turning dark side, I'm sure he would have fought it but I could tell, right after you died, that he would lose. He would work so hard to try and bring you back that he would lose himself in the process. As Ruby said, he would eventually be able to kill me without moving a muscle. I couldn't have that obviously, so I brought you back. Also, when I finally do kill Sam, it won't be as much fun if I don't have you here to watch." "Wha," Dean started shocked at the new revelation he had received, "I'm the one that keeps Sammy from killing you, I'm the reason that you are still alive and killing? Why are you telling me this, what makes you think that I won't let Sam kill you?" Dean threatened. "You won't," Lilith said in her little girl voice once again. "You see, if you do, Sam will forget why he is fighting; he will become more dangerous than I could ever be. I see that you don't believe me, fine, go ahead and try it, tell Sam to kill me. Then you can watch your brother be destroyed and replaced, little by little, with something evil. Goodbye Dean, I think it is time for me to leave." "Good luck getting out of the devils…" Dean stopped talking as Lilith disappeared.
"What?" exclaimed Bobby, "I drew that devils trap myself, there is no way she just got out." After looking around the room, he said, "I don't believe it, she's gone. I wonder what other tricks Lilith has up her sleeve. Ok Dean, you got your answer, what are you going to do, are you going to tell Sam?" "I, ya I might I haven't decided yet," Dean replied, still mystified at the way Lilith had vanished. "Thanks for helping me Bobby; by the way, have you ever heard of an ex-hunter, named Anna Witfeild?" "Anna, she's all right, isn't she?" Bobby asked in a worried tone. "Ya, we kind of ran into her tonight." Dean proceeds to tell Bobby about the night's events then leaves after assuring him that Anna is ok and agreeing to look after her.
"Anna, you still awake?" Sam asked when he walked in the room after dinner. The sudden absence of quiet crying which he had heard when he first walked in the room told him that she was and that she didn't want to talk. He was about to lie down in the other bed when he heard someone at the door. He stood up, suddenly alert. Pulling out Ruby's demon-killing knife, he walked slowly to the door. When he was about a foot away from it, the door opened and Dean walked in.
"Oh, it's you," Sam said relaxing. "Ya, it's me, I didn't want to knock, thought you'd be asleep, it's like four in the morning! Ya, um," Dean continued when Sam gave him a cold stare daring him not to explain where he had been and what he had done, "don't be mad, but… I summoned Lilith," Dean paused for a moment, waiting for the reaction that was sure to come. Sure enough, less than two seconds later, "You did what!?" Sam exploded. "Why, why couldn't I go with you? Did you kill her?" Dean shot him a look that clearly said 'don't you think I would have mentioned that if I had' before replying with, "No, I was going to when she just walked out of a damn devils trap, it had no affect on her at all!" "What did she say, did she tell you how you got out of Hell?" asked Sam. Ya, she did actually, she said she felt bad about sending me there or something." "Ya right, demons don't have feelings of regret," Sam said immediately. What did she really say?" "Fine, Dean said, half way giving in to Sam's demands, she said that when she finally did kill you, it wouldn't be as much fun if I wasn't here to watch her do it." She just wanted you to watch me die?" Sam asked. Dean hesitated slightly before saying, "Ya, she is one sick demon."
